Hi, Russ. It's Isla. The huge winter storm recently came, and I'm wondering what the animals are doing to protect themselves. Stay warm!
Isla
Hi, Isla! That's a great question! Different animals have different strategies to stay warm during chilly weather. Take squirrels, for example. Those critters usually fatten up and spend more time in their dens during the winter. The fat helps keep them warm! If you want to learn about other animals, we have some articles that can help. Try typing "Cold Survival" or "Winter Survival" into the Search bar. You can learn about creatures like polar bears, narwhals, and wood frogs! πŸ»β€β„οΈ 🐸 ❄️

What is a cold brew? Can you tell me?
Brooklyn
Cold brew is a kind of coffee! It's made by letting coffee grounds steep in cold water for 12-24 hours. That's different from most coffee that is made by steeping coffee grounds in very hot water for a shorter amount of time.

Hey, Russ. Shouldn't the "Ask Russ" button only be for articles made by Russ, or do you just know everything about all the articles? 😊

Is the Eiffel Tower the tallest structure in the world? If not, what is?

The tallest structure in the world is the Burj Khalifa. That is a building in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. It is 2,717 feet (828 meters) tall. The Eiffel Tower is 1,083 feet (330 meters) tall. It WAS the tallest when it was built in 1887!

Is Taylor Swift REALLY related to Emily Dickinson, and did all those people exist?
Kathleen
That's right, Kathleen! Emily Dickinson was a real writer. She was born in Massachusetts and lived from 1830 to 1886. Taylor Swift and Emily Dickinson are sixth cousins, three times removed!

Dear Russ: can you write about the snowstorm coming soon?

Hi, Shayda! Weather forecasters say much of the eastern United States will be affected by the big storm. Some schools canceled classes on Friday! The News-O-Matic team plans to do a story about the storm on Monday. By then, we should know more about it! ❄️
