@Spencer_Linton Reminds me of Vai Sikahema’s story about when he, as a local Philly sports reporter, interviewed Ty Detmer after a bad NFL game. Vai was also Ty’s Bishop at the time. Responding to a tough question Ty said, “Aw Bishop, I made a mistake - can you forgive me?”

@BradyRStevenson @Ch_JesusChrist As it turns out, Graden Jackson is my wife’s first cousin. The Church can sometimes make it a small world.

@jaycordeira Magenta aurora was visible (just *barely* with the naked eye in a dark area) all the way down in Vicksburg, MS last night. Hoping for some more tonight!

@nprscottsimon Have they tried him at catcher yet? Odds are he’d be good at that, too.

[Cary Talbot @CaryTalbot]

@nprscottsimon And it would have likely scored the run from third. One run, two men on and only two outs. Bobbling the ball at the wall and some really heads-up defensive play ends the inning with no runs scored. Just like they drew it up in practice. 🙂

@NinaTotenberg @Jeopardy @arishapiro I, for one, was screaming at the TV: Nina Totenberg!! To be fair, we usually just hear your voice so maybe if it had been an audio clue, one of the contestants might have recognized you. 😉

@jaycordeira 0 for me! 😃

@xkcd Um... Randall I hate to be *that guy* but Mississippi (my current home state) is MS, not MI. That's Michigan which is correctly labeled. There are two MIs on your map. Happy to be a part of NSW, though!

Comet C/2023 A3 (Tsuchinshan-ATLAS) visible just after sunset in clear skies and dry air over the Mississippi River at Vicksburg last night. #mswx @NWSJacksonMS

@xkcd That Coolness axis is logarithmic, right?

@xoEspy @CC_StormWatch @NWSSanDiego As one who lives right in the heart of the @NWSJacksonMS area (Vicksburg, MS), I can attest that tornado warnings are just part of life here. We can’t handle even a tiny amount of snow or ice without widespread panic but tornados? Meh….

[Cary Talbot @CaryTalbot]

@CC_StormWatch @jaycordeira @NWSSanDiego Interesting! When one looks up “Tornado Alley” on Wikipedia, you get this image. The thinking on where tornados most frequently occur needs to change as it has clearly been shifting eastward. Living in heart of that darkest red area, I can attest that we get them frequently.

Spillway… spilling at Oroville: the balancing act of making room for incoming runoff inflows will maintaining levels for the rest of the year. Better management possible through forecast informed reservoir operations (FIRO) #CAwx 1/31/2024

[Cary Talbot @CaryTalbot]

@nprscottsimon It’s a major award!

[Cary Talbot @CaryTalbot]

Glad to have had the opportunity to contribute to Saqib Rahim’s nice article. FIRO is an excellent tool in the toolbox of making our existing infrastructure work harder for us, particularly as we face the challenges of a changing climate with more intense weather extremes.

[U.S. Army ERDC @ArmyERDC]

Learn how USACE and ERDC are testing how cutting-edge forecasting such as Forecast Informed Reservoir Operations (FIRO) can be used to optimize operations
like at the New Bullards Bar Dam and Reservoir in Northern California.

"We are honored to host the Mekong/Mississippi Sister River Commission. It's a great opportunity to present to representatives from the Mekong sub-region on FIRO and all the innovative work CW3E is doing to improve forecasts to support FIRO." - Marty Ralph, @CW3E_Scripps director

Hoping for another #BYU50 win in the Magnolia State. @BYUFanEx

Excited for the opportunity to talk #FIRO on the next ERDC Live event coming up at 1000 CDT today. @ArmyERDC https://t.co/IVl09ERK04
