Dealing with winter. I live in the rural upper Midwest, where winter can hit -20 with whiteout blizzards, week-long power outages, and car-burying snowdrifts. I’ve seen too many people move here from warmer places and think “I guess I’ll buy a warmer coat and a snow shovel”, rather than “I should have a backup generator, a backup heat source, a few barrels of spare fuel, a month’s worth of stockpiled food, and at least two different pieces of heavy snow-moving machinery tested to be in good working order”.

During AC season, 71 during the day, 68 at night. Geothermal FTW.

Specific subs that don’t exist on Lemmy, especially Q&A-type subs with no equivalent (or very few members). Things like AskPlumbers. It’ll just take time to build those communities here.

RadarScope. I work a very weather-dependent job.
