You really had the whole ball of wax.

To have a storm that actually stays together from all the way west of Kansas City to just south of Chicago is highly unusual.

It looks like we may have seen our coldest stint.

I guess that's good news unless you like snow and winter.

My heart goes out to the brave citizens of Syria, who each day risk and even sacrifice their lives to achieve freedom from a murderous regime. We in Israel welcome the historic struggle to forge democratic, peace-loving governments in our region.

My family's dream, and my own, was to live in Israel, and our eventual voyage to the port of Jaffa was like making a dream come true. Had it not been for this dream and this voyage, I would probably have perished in the flames, as did so many of my people, among them most of my own family.
