Just beat the Kaizo Ironmon challenge in my 8th Pokémon game. Blastoise beat Emerald! I was really starting to enjoy the game too. To complete the series (generations 3–7), I only have Ultra Sun left to go. The last Kaizo Ironmon game starts this week... can I become the first ever series champion?

Fantastic AGDQ Animal Crossing Golden Net race, GGs to Drew for the win and sorry for nearly stealing the thunder with that wild comeback to actually finish in (semi-decent) time. Definitely worth a watch back, I feel like it went exceptionally well :)

I'll probably go to a con soon, I'm next in line for a suit and have some connections to make! I don't think I'll end up being ready for MFF though

Kirby Air Riders makes me so stupidly happy. I wanted to sleep 6 hours ago but my brain has been in overdrive since the direct and I feel this rare wondrous passion stuck in the back of my head. This is a game made for me, and I can't wait :D

Usually cloud cover makes the difference in these cases, but assuming you mean today, a cold front has been making its way through your region. Compressional heating happens along some cold fronts where wind blows into the front and then gets smushed as the front progresses forward.

If I were to go, I would love to do so through means of which I could give back to the con/represent our science for the fandom :)

thank you :) that was a lovely gift from the both of you. much appreciated & always happy to share the blue dog!

Philippe, take it from me—I wouldn't work for the team I do if my concerns about your perspective here weren't being met & exceeded on our streams. My #1 goal is to have the highest CSI in where our work is most valuable, which is bridging the gap between SPC watches and NWS warnings in rare events.

Andy Hill @bluekandy.bsky.social · 18/06/2025
Life is so much fun :) This week is super packed—two stream days in a row already with a third coming up, a meeting with SPC meteorologists, and I'm talking to a high school class about my work! Been absolutely kicking butt so far and ready to keep going!

Fun chase all around! I saw 3 (maybe 4) barely tornadoes, two in new states (TX/KS). Satisfied the storm structure checkbox. Enjoyed some good food, at this point honoring traditional spots for our group. Some pics below :) Thanks to Jared, Sam, Hunter and Wyatt for another dope year

Just for some context: I edit and ensure all video scripts are solid before they're created, as well as help choose thumbnails & titles to prevent unnecessary hyperbole + reach the largest audience. I also work the streams in full in an effort to maximize our POD/minimize FAR in nationwide coverage.

Good to hear you're prepared!

It sucks when someone is superficial though, and that's what your last post is. You don't need to spend time watching him to see his serious side & our millions raised for nonprofit operations thereafter, but you shouldn't diss them if you don't spend that time.

Andy Hill @bluekandy.bsky.social · 19/05/2025
Clickbait is not for everyone, but everyone *does* have a different definition of clickbait. I'm sorry you feel like you're aggressed by the thumbnails; but, they have proven to get scientifically-vetted info out to exponentially more people (I edit the video scripts).

His chasing accident is a public video on his YouTube channel, there to be transparent & raise awareness for proper chasing technique and etiquette.

Andy Hill @bluekandy.bsky.social · 19/05/2025
I'm the lead meteorologist, and the only one who issues the y'all watches right now. We bridge the gap between a watch and a warning. I'd recommend listening to the latest weatherbrains podcast from Spann, they talk about y'all watches for 20-25 minutes. Lead NOAA Social scientist supports them.

Andy Hill @bluekandy.bsky.social · 19/05/2025
I take comments like this seriously, because I have dedicated years of my life & thousands of hours toward making his broadcast polished & statistically significant. To me, this is highly offensive due to the superficial nature of your observation/assumption about his work. What's wrong with it?

No chase today, at my bf's PhD graduation ceremony :)

If storms are closer to the low pressure center, they're closer to the jet streak higher up. Thus, the total winds affecting a storm as it towers up increases, and in this case the low pressure & jet stream are further north

Andy Hill @bluekandy.bsky.social · 03/04/2025
Ok... I think we did good. I believe I issued over 100 y'all watches, and I heard there were over 230 tornado warnings for the day. Coverage was immaculate and we peaked at 288,000 viewers for severe weather, a new high for the mode.

Never a good thing when your boss wakes up and the first message he sends you is "omg we could be live the next 5 days in a row"😅

I'm completely overwhelmed after the last two days' outbreak. I feel like I'm ready to do 12 more hours of coverage, yet at the same time I cannot motivate myself to do anything else lol. Severe weather paralysis of some sort
