On 23 January 2016, a severe snowstorm struck the eastern USA.  The storm was predicted to be the severest such storm since the Knickerbocker Storm of 27 - 28 January 1922, which caused the Knickerbocker Theater in Washington, District of Columbia to collapse, killing 98 people including Congressman Andrew Jackson Barchfeld and several other prominent politicians and businessmen.  The 2016 storm struck many areas with the association of Columbus or Columbia, meaning a dove.  The storm itself was dubbed "Jonas", which also means "dove."
There was thick snow in Columbus Circle, Manhattan.
The storm caused the awning of Knights of Columbus #2572 in Wildwood, New Jersey to collapse.

Between 22 - 24 January 2016, eastern Asia also experienced a severe cold spell which affected Taiwan and Okinawa, among other regions, killing several people unaccustomed to such weather.

On 24 January 2016 at approximately 1:30 a.m., there was a magnitude 6.8 earthquake off the Kenai Peninsula in Alaska, in another part of Athabaskan territory (the Dene are Athabaskans, as also are the Navajo).
