Tornadoes, aurora, 3km CAPE/vort bullseyes, streamwise hodos with that kink at 700mb, and the stray cat in my yard. As seen on TV one time like 7 years ago

Iโ€™m a little frustrated seeing so many younger chasers dogpiling a veteran chaser like Melanie. Sheโ€™s been doing this a long time and is a good chaser and great friend. Itโ€™s not my story to tell, but people may be going through things you donโ€™t realize. Chasing is an escape.

Awful idea. The RRFS can't handle low-level cold air masses nearly as well as the NAM. There are also a litany of problems running the FV3 on a convection-allowing grid, some of which are outlined here x.com/VORTEXJeff/staโ€ฆ

Before I retired, Iโ€™ll say that SPC staff who use these models *universally* deemed this plan a terrible idea harming forecasting. FV3-based ensembling is not ready for prime time. That message was delivered aboveโ€ฆ& ignored. Jeff does a fine job of explaining the problems.

Best tweet a chaser will see today. My addition: sit out and get off social media when youโ€™re chasing out of some false sense of obligation. Itโ€™s been that way for me for the better part of two years, so Iโ€™ve been doing that. Itโ€™s healthy. Support your friends and yourself.

Looking for storm chasers who documented the Gary, South Dakota tornado to weigh in on how much their experience of that tornado has now been reduced by the NWS not rating it EF-5.

Utah: This is probably the craziest โ€œFirenadoโ€ Iโ€™ve ever seen. This off the Deer Creek Fire today, near La Sal, which saw very extreme fire behavior leading to crews pulling back to safety zones and further evacuations. The fire was last mapped at 8,300 acres, but has since

This May I chased multiple days here that busted due to excessive, HP, upscale growth. Tonight, I cannot chase thanks to 700mb temperatures over 18 degrees C. In Oklahoma. DOESNโ€™T HAPPEN. This is weather warfare. And you are under attack.
