Looks like @FERC will put everything on the table regarding @pjminterconnect 's capacity market, and it's hard to not see this as a proxy trial for capacity markets in general.

So, where do we go on resource adequacy?

Can market-based resource adequacy survive? #WinterStorm Uri discredited energy market only solutions, but the capacity market victory lap was hardly over when Elliott less dramatically called capacity markets into question.

Buffalo is currently frozen and crippled following the disastrous 2-day lake effect snow and high wind event being called the #BuffaloStorm2022 #BuffaloBlizzard.

The Buffalo NWS identified a particular type of cloud seen in this storm: gravity wave clouds.

Here’s what I found.
The Buffalo NWS has labeled the zebra stripe-patterned clouds seen below gravity wave clouds. This cloud type has been visible on radar and satellite imagery throughout the #BombCyclone #WinterStorm #winterstormelliot.
This type of cloud has been visible on radar and satellite imagery for years, but, whereas it is claimed they were once somewhat unusual or rare, they can now be found in the sky every single day. They tend to cover huge swathes of land and are impossible to miss.

What Is The Knowledge Graph?

The Knowledge Graph is an intelligent model that taps into Google’s vast repository of entity and fact-based information and seeks to understand the real-world connections between them. #WinterStorm #WilliamIsABully #wenclair
twinoid.com/user/10074039 Instead of interpreting every keyword and query literally, Google infers what people are looking for. The goal of the Knowledge Graph – as Google explains nicely in their (still relevant) introductory video – is to transition “from being an information

Google uses the Knowledge Graph’s understanding of semantic search and the

Dear Westjetters, I join you in the frustration of being sidelined by @WestJet led by the failed leadership of @AHoensbroech and will proactively use my cancelled time not to grieve missing Christmas, but to analyze data on their failures to deliver while other airlines could. 🧵
2/ Today is a good day to analyze incoming data about flights because @WestJet "proactively cancelled" them due to #ONStorm. globalnews.ca/news/9369443/w…
3/ I'm more convinced it was because of resource management failure & I'll track flights coming out of #YYC (their hub) to these destinations to see it in comparison to other airlines like @AirCanada @FlairAirlines @Lynx_Air and @SunwingVacay. Something you should do too @CTA_gc

East/S.E. #Nebraska
Plz rethink going out #NYE & opt to stay home. The conditions will be down right dangerous & even life threatening. IF you insist, at the very least take thick blankets, warm clothes, charged cells & a survival kit with you.

#winterstorm #bittercold Image
#Snow #Nebraska

Predicted snowfall amounts. Besides the above have battery cables, a mini shovel, cat liter/sand for traction & a headlamp, flashlight. Let someone know where you're going & what route.

#winterstorm #bittercold #blowingsnow Image

Probable snow amounts, but keep in mind it will be driven by north wind gusts as high as 28 & wind chill values will be as low as -29.
