Dave Dildine @dildinedave.bsky.social · 13/08/2026So many tornado warning takes, so little time but I've always wished the the criteria for warnings was stricter so that QLCS, shelf gustnados, and other brief spin-ups are covered by SVR 120

Somewhat interestingly, the hourly average never hits 100 but there are obs in between hourly reports as well. Only June days may have a bit different structure will try to check. #dcwx #vawx 3246

Dave Dildine @dildinedave.bsky.social · 25/03/2026For the last few weeks, rush hour hasn't been normal. This time of year volumes should be surging. Instead, it's been flat, like mid-winter. Daily backups and congestion… yes. But trip counts on major corridors don't match March averages. (1/4) 131

Dave Dildine @dildinedave.bsky.social · 16/03/2026This is the correct take. But it's a reaction to media coverage, both legacy and influencer hype, so there's some culpability here. We also live in a performative timeline in which many are looking for a reason to overreact. 350
