The beginning of #HurricaneSeason is also a good time to remind you to get your information from trustworthy and accurate sources. In addition to the NHC website, I created this Starter Pack to highlight accounts that I recommend. go.bsky.app/88mXQKD

Much like how it’s impossible to predict a specific weather pattern in a year, it’s impossible to predict where the field will end up 10+ years from now. The best any of us can do is be aware of changes in the field and willing to adapt wherever the flow may go.

The toll on the NWS scientists who remain after the DOGE purge still runs very deep. You won’t find a more dedicated group of public servants; however, they remain stretched dangerously thin

Amplifying an important message about what folks SHOULD NOT call an @nws.noaa.gov office concerning radar interpretation during a severe weather outbreak, as #meteorologists at the office are assuredly doing so and it takes time valuable time from such interrogation to warn about actual #tornadoes.
Dr. Bieda shared an X post from Mark Fox (Meteorologist-in-Charge in Norman, OK) conveying a request for help to major media sources, asking that calls to the NWS should not be about radar interpretation.

Today is SPC's first explicit forecast of significant tornadoes possible (CIG1) in a tornado probability less than 10%. Based on radar data and environment a significant tornado may have occurred in parts of that forecast area. SPC could not have explicitly forecast this kind of scenario previously.

What sits with me after this week of #AMS2026 is that despite everything we’ve seen over the last 12 months, the science is resilient. It is hurt and handicapped and hamstrung but it endures. And the students, despite EVERYTHING **still** want to work for NWS or in broadcasting.

Good grief: According to research from Brenda Philips, info in flash flood warnings don’t necessarily influence people’s response and reaction during a flood. It’s their immediate situation and circumstance and the pre-event warning information. This is incredibly challenging. #AMS2026

Continuing to monitor potential for ice in the Houston area. For the Houston area, this will likely be an inconvenient but most likely manageable event. If you have travel plans Sat night or Sunday (looking at #AMS2026 folks), there will likely be challenges.
