If you’re biking up to NCAR this morning, prepare for a very balmy welcome. Temps rise from the upper 40s to low 70s just up the hill

It's basically Google GenCast and EC vs the world right now in terms of TD15's track toward Hawaii. I mean, DeepMind and EC is a team I wouldn't bet against. We'll see - tricky forecast! www.polarwx.com/tropical/

This disturbance southeast of Hawaii is looking awfully convincing this evening. If this keeps up, TD coming soon. EC and AI models take a hurricane near or into the Big Island this weekend.

These SHIPS RI probabilities for Polo are incredible www.polarwx.com/tropical/#ep...

Another record-warm morning in the books for Denver.

Super impressive consistency during a period of heightened uncertainty and impact-sensitivity to the track.

I kinda like this one though - looks like a fireball coming our way

Just don’t understand how/why/when it became cool to display data without units or grids or even values. Feels like a lot of bank/brokerage apps have started displaying history like this. Somehow became popular with scientists too — looking at you, ShowYourStripes 🙄 (I will die on this hill)

OU promoting this, with the sloppiest AI slop, is … a choice.

I feel like this is likely a case of satellite intensity estimates falling short. The symmetry of the eye, stadium, warmth, is classic cat-5. Too much weight on how cold the CDO is - will underestimate intensity every time. Classic example - Dorian.

It's wild how egregious the GFS warm bias during these heatwaves.

Fausto not caring what any forecast model says

Realtors using AI on Zillow has gotten so egregious that they‘re basically just making up new impossible rooms. Slowly rendering Zillow useless. If they knew what was good for them, they’d ban AI generated images.

Clearly excited about getting a new old weather radio at home

When you’re bringing your old weather radio back from your childhood home, and it gets flagged at security.

Today is Anthony's 6-month birthday. He was born on November 6th. The high was 69 degrees. Today, May 6th, there is 8 inches of snow on the ground.

First half of May will likely be colder than the second half of March. Not anomaly, actual temperature.

Do you have an outdoor event planned and worried about getting rained on? Hire me.

Didn’t know wood siding in a shower was a thing?

Here's the outlier you've all been waiting for. It's currently 75F in Denver, CO at 11 PM MDT. On March 21st.

Hi, just wondering, do you carry a weather in between these sizes?

At this point I think Colorado angered God somehow, because at this rate this state is going to be a pile of ashes before summer even hits

The "fuck it" equivalent of an Oklahoma-sized severe warning for a QLCS. Starting to question, should people even try living here anymore, or is this the same as buying a house below sea level in New Orleans.
