CBJ- No significant new snowfall is expected until early next week. Avalanche risk remains elevated on Mount Juneau slide paths affecting the White Subdivision, Behrends Ave, and all neighborhoods below Mount Juneau.
This week’s historic storm has created conditions that may persist over an extended period, requiring continued awareness even without daily changes. Conditions can change quickly with little warning.
CBJ will send alerts if conditions worsen.
Alaska Department of Transportation and Public Facilities (DOT&PF)’s avalanche hazard reduction work was completed yesterday morning.
Thane Road has reopened. DOT&PF reminds drivers not to stop in the avalanche zone and to use caution while travelling on Thane Road.
Moving forward CBJ will only issue alerts like these if conditions worsen or major changes are observed. The absence of an alert does not mean the hazard has diminished. You can find current hazard levels at bit.ly/CBJavalanche.
This is not an evacuation advisory. Residents should remain alert, have a go-bag ready, know their risk, and stay signed up for emergency alerts.
JoJo Siwa is ringing in the new year… with a new name.
On December 31, not long before the calendar turned to 2026, the Dance Moms alum took fans and followers by surprise when she swapped out her nickname in her TikTok bio for her full birth name: Joelle Siwa.
That wasn’t all, however.

The 22-year-old singer and performer also alluded to her “plans for 2026” in a social media video, lip-syncing to her single “Boomerang” from 2016 and adding:
“I’mma come back like a boomerang.”
In the caption of the reel, Siwa also hinted to her 46 million followers: What a year it is ahead.
Such a name change and subsequent message has folks wondering what lies ahead for Siwa.

Underneath this footage, fans had mixed reactions to JoJo’s update, with many in support of a potential rebrand.
“Her changing her name from jojo to Joelle has to be the biggest pull ever!!!” one individual commented. “2026 is gonna be crazy!!!”
Another chimed in with encouragement, writing: “Joelle feels so authentic, wishing you every happiness in 2026.”
“It’s not platonic any more,” Siwa told The Guardian in an interview published June 2, adding of herself and her Celebrity Big Brother housemate:
“And it’s been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and I’m absolutely head over heels for him and he’s the same way.”

The couple have been keeping busy throughout the month of December, as well, with Siwa hosting a soccer-themed birthday for her boyfriend as he turned 33 on December 22.
“This day 33 years ago was a good good day… the day my favorite person was born happy birthday to my love,” Siwa wrote online at the time.
“I couldn’t imagine a life without you in it anymore, you are the best friend, son, brother, and boyfriend. You make my life better each day that passes. Everyone who knows you is a lucky one. Love you lots and lots more than tater tots.”
So there we have it on a personal level for JOELLE Siwa. Things are going very well.
On the professional front, though? We can’t wait to see what 2026 delivers.

Tom and Alix did some canoodling in St. Barths
In video obtained by People, Tom and Alix “can be seen chatting and dancing together.”
They reportedly whispered in one another’s ears and generally enjoyed each other’s company for a large portion of the evening.
Reports of this possible new couple come just three weeks after Alix confirmed that she had ended her relationship with Braxton, a wide receiver for the Houston Texans.

“It’s just been really hard to process in general, and I think why I’ve been scared to say something is because I feel like it just makes it more real,” Earle said in an emotional TikTok video.
“Braxton and I are no longer together. We have been doing long distance since basically June and we haven’t gotten to see each other that often.”
At just 25, Earle is one of the most popular influencers on social media.
Her “Get Ready With Me” videos catapulted her to mainstream fame, and she competed on the most recent season of Dancing With the Stars.

Tom, of course, is arguably the greatest football player to take the field.
Years after completing his historic career under center, the 48-year-old remains a fixture in the world of the NFL, as both a broadcaster for Fox Sports and a partial owner of the Las Vegas Raiders.
At a recent public event, the U.S. president was spotted with a bruise on his left hand, echoing the bruising observed on his right hand in early 2025.
