Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Ah! I discovered that some time with METAR data. I didn’t report it. Thought I was doing something wrong so I did a real ugly hack with some precision black magic. 110
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 12/09/2026That friction has a name in the education circles: “productive struggle”. It’s not easy to make that happen. 110
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Found myself saying this in a class today. Liked it. Immortalized it in a PowerPoint Slide using a stock photo. Sharing it for all. 020
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 29/08/2026This level of appreciation among colleagues boosts my spirits in a time where there’s so much to be negative about. 010
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Will the source isobaric levels be available? Or will I just have to pull those directly from the RRFS/HRRR? 100
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 01/06/2026Best of luck to y’all. Just finished a 2 week field project out there. It’s a tough year for storms. 010
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 26/05/2026@millersvilleuni.bsky.social TILTTING-BL windsonde up at Bracketville, TX at 18:39 UTC. 060
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 05/05/2026Na - 61 GHz is just slightly off the 60 GHz oxygen line. It's a microwave radiometer channel, not AERI. 110
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 27/04/2026Ditto. Maybe I can get in on that conversation. I've been working on that and have been exploring ideas. 110
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 19/04/2026Yeah - some of my students were really hoping to go. 100
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 17/04/2026I'd bet pretty heavily that RAOB and aircraft are the two sources that really help with the low-level temperature structure (e.g., capping inversions). 010
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 17/04/2026My understanding of radiative transfer and the current methods of doing passive remote sensing is that the satellites don't provide a lot of help with low level conditions. The low-level information content in satellite-based MW and IR is pretty poor. 110
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 09/04/2026Having been using AI coding a lot recently, I have noticed that one of the counterbalances to these is to spend time writing the documentation/flowcharts and reading through the code it writes to try to understand what's going on. The writing process helps me think. 000
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 18/03/2026The old Twitter met fights are back! Nature is healing. 020
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 04/02/2026Cool! Do you have any lesson plans available for this code for a boundary layer class? 100
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 06/12/2025Do we know what will happen to the Drought Mitigation Center as a result of this vote? 000
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 25/09/2025@clarkevanswx.bsky.social - is there a chance we can do reprocessing of the data to see how it fixes the data? 100
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 24/09/2025The images are slides I showed. Hard to see this annual shit-show going back over a decade. 050
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 24/09/2025That sucks. It's no funding bill, but I'm advocating for y'all in my non-major meteorology class. 60 or so students got my annual "here's what a federal government shutdown does to meteorologists and other services that depend on weather" today and many of them were perturbed. 160
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 29/08/2025Overkill or not - the site and everything is pretty slick. 010
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 15/08/2025Now all I need is a NMAP replacement... @plustssn.autumnsky.us 120
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 07/08/202518 missing radiosonde observations this morning on the SPC website….in the middle of hurricane season. 100
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 28/05/2025I just spent part of the day building a GINI image writer in Python. Let's just say that finding its documentation required going into the Internet Wayback Machine. 000
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 24/04/2025It's such a nice upgrade! Been using them for a few years now and it really helps. 010
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 15/04/2025Horrors? Given our current time in history, that's a pretty loaded word. What happened? 100
Greg Blumberg @drbwx.bsky.social · 21/03/2025Dang it, Kelton! I was just working on a map like this. I did my best to find all of the reasons for different upper air outages. 110
