The Lake Tahoe region in the Sierra Nevada has been seeing their snowiest season in 70 years. In the recent 3 day blizzard theyโ€™ve picked up 83โ€ of snow and 12.5 feet in the last week! This video of a localโ€™s driveway says it all. #cawx ๐Ÿ“: Soda Springs, CA ๐Ÿ“ธ: Janelle Potvin

Itโ€™s amazing to see how all Ukrainians - East and West, Ukrainian- and Russian-speaking, even those who were seen as pro-Putin just a week ago, are united now in defending Ukraine. Never been more proud. #StandWithUkriane
