Definitely blizzard of 26
In this companion piece to her blizzard coverage, Brooke Brodack ventures even deeper into the 2026 blizzard, battling gusty winds that threaten to topple her camera while she documents the incredible snowfall. She marvels at Mother Nature's power, drawing on frosted windows and showing viewers how the snow has buried everything in sight -- including herself as she wades through drifts that swallow her legs.
Brooke connects her ability to brave the extreme cold to her raw vegan lifestyle, sharing that she has been plant-based for almost two months and is on a 40-day vegan Lent. She humorously notes that without hot soups in her diet, she has discovered a surprising tolerance for freezing temperatures. The video captures her infectious spirit as she pitches herself as a weather woman, checks on her overflowing fish pond, and reminds viewers that her snow-covered house looks like abstract art -- complete with what appears to be teeth made of icicles.
