I've been trying to be better at taking Loon on longer walks on trails on my days off. It's good for her, she enjoys it, and she's a good ten pounds overweight.

After a nice walk today, the second she got out of the car at our apt, she found a full slice of 🍕 that someone had tossed aside 🤦🏻‍♀️

Thanks, Rusty!

Are there any good Miami Hurricanes fan accounts on here? I haven't seen a single post on my feed about FSU Hate Week!

The Fujiwhara effect is one of my favorite meteorological phenomenons. It's like hurricanes are doing a little dancey dance!

In a version of the Fujiwhara effect, Hurricane Humberto is pulling Tropical Storm Imelda eastward and away from the U.S.

Excited to announce that I am now a Certified Broadcast Meteorologist! Getting my AMS Certification was ROUGH, but I am proud that my hard work has paid off.

Today’s act of political violence in Utah against Charlie Kirk is absolutely disgusting and unacceptable.

We don’t have to agree on everything, but we should all agree on this: political violence is wrong, and has no place in our democracy

Students were eating lunch when they heard the gunshots. It’s yet another horrific school shooting, and every time my heart breaks for the kids, parents, and communities shattered by gun violence.

We can’t stop demanding change. Congress can and must pass gun safety legislation.

On Sunday, I talked about the likelihood of it raining Monday night, starting in the evening. It wasn't until I was driving to my Monday evening frisbee league that I processed that my own forecast meant a rain cancellation was likely 🤦🏻‍♀️

Back in the 2010s, most of the complaints of "bad posts" were directed at "social mediarologists." I guess some in broadcast meteorology have decided that if you can't beat em, join em, because they are now some of the WORST offenders with this stuff.

Plus the research. There's a lot about the atmosphere that we would not know if it weren't for various research projects, and a lot that we have left to learn.

As a meteorologist, I can say with absolute certainty that NOAA is essential and that these cuts will put lives in danger. I'm in the private sector, so my job is safe, but we rely on data provided by NWS's weather balloons and radars as well as satellite imagery. We NEED NOAA.

Did y'all see Casey Anthony got a TikTok?!?! She's talking about "being an advocate" as if she was ever an advocate for her child. She's talking about how she feels judged, etc. "Woe is me" with no mention of Caylee. Smh 😤
