Earlier this summer, students/staff from our Atmospheric Sciences program took part in SUNY Oswego's Storm Forecasting and Observation Program. The group spent three weeks forecasting severe weather, launching weather balloons, collecting atmospheric data, and chasing storms across five states.

A large supercell thunderstorm with distinct layered cloud bands stretches across the horizon above open farmland. A road and parked vehicle sit in the foreground as rain falls beneath the storm's dark cloud base.

Three Atmospheric Sciences students stand in a grassy field with a large supercell thunderstorm in the background. Another participant photographs the storm from the roadside as dark clouds stretch across the sky.

A large thunderstorm stretches across the horizon above open grassland and a rural dirt road. Layered storm clouds and distant rainfall are visible beneath the storm's dark cloud base.

Mammatus clouds glow pink and orange at sunset above a rural landscape. Rounded cloud formations fill the sky as darker storm clouds linger near the horizon.

The Lyndon crew is having a blast on their storm chasing trip so far! They saw a funnel cloud (photo by Ethan Pierce) on their first day near the CO/NM border. They also have seen multiple supercells, a wall cloud, shelf clouds, mammatus, golf ball hail, and incredible lightning! #stormchasing 🌪️⛈️🧊⚡️

Full panorama of the 2025 Dickens/Wellfleet LP tornado+supercell! View is looking ESE up into the mesocyclone. The RFD clear slot is visible in the upper right, and in the distance on the bottom left you can even see a bit of the FFCB. Stationary supercell with deviant westerly tornado. Perfection!

The science is clear. The stakes are real. AGU condemns the repeal of the EPA Endangerment Finding — a decision that rejects the overwhelming evidence and undermines climate accountability. We will continue to defend science and advocate for evidence-based policy. buff.ly/wX1BQ2t

AMS is deeply concerned by the repeal of EPA’s 2009 Endangerment Finding, which concluded greenhouse gas emissions harm health and well-being. The science remains clear: human-caused climate change is already causing harmful impacts. Read the full statement: bit.ly/4tBwz9w
