German Air Force Luftwaffe A319 coming in to YVR. @petervogel.bsky.social have any details on this one? Looks like either a VIP transport or a special mission.
Storm chasing cb cells popping up over Oregon using a 1:8 scale train 🚂 new achievement unlocked 😂
Canadian Forces (?) spotted doing a flyover of Lake Tahoe on Fourth of July 🇺🇸🇨🇦
There’s a bat 🦇 stuck in the room next door to me. Hmmm.
Canadian Forces CC-150T doing laps around Vancouver. @petervogel.bsky.social have any details on this one?
@petervogel.bsky.social is your ADS-B picking up any military aircraft circling the north shore? Definitely observing some kind of jet around the north shore mountains not showing up in the usual FlightRadar24. Probably for the World Cup
Maybe my favourite macro yet. New flowers means hundreds of new friends. 🐝

While the hantavirus risk looks mostly contained, the most recent Ebola outbreak appears to be worse than original estimates. Doctors and epidemiologists suspect it has spread to new areas not currently being tracked. www.bbc.com/news/article...
The agent I've been working on has been gaining new capabilities every day. Here it's pulled 10 ensemble members and plotted precipitation forecast for the next ten days, and deliver it every morning. @ensembleator.bsky.social how did it do?
I was surprised to see my personal agent built on Qwen3.6 having the capability to interpret lightning maps and accurately describe the direction of movement of the storm. This model must have been trained on a lot of mapping data.
ECMWF long range trending towards “super” El Niño by November, probabilistic ensembles hinting June-August look like above average temperatures for BC but dry #bcstorm #bcwx www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/ana...
First time I’ve ever seen Banasa Dimidiata (Green burgundy stink bug) but wow it’s so cool. It seemed to love hanging out in some wax begonias I just planted. A welcome friend. 🪲
A very friendly American Goldfinch visited the bird feeder this morning. Nice to see them returning again this year. Also a little experiment had Gemini process the image to get better focus but maybe it’s a stretch?
Still blows my mind I can pull up a live YouTube stream and overlay it on @flightradar24.com and watch an entire airport live on a tiny cell phone in 2026. www.youtube.com/live/SkieSbW...
There’s definitely something funny going on with Claude usage. All it took was a couple of code reviews and I’m hitting usage limits on a MAX plan. Something smells very bad. 👃 Anyone else running into this?
It must be spring, the animals are out and very lively! This owl flew right up to me on my walk last night 🦉
The bears are back, and right on cue they’re back to destroying our fence again (that’s the crunch sound at the end) 🐻😂
