@reid_lt@mikestanislaw 925mb wind speeds and 2m wind speeds are drastically different. Meteorologists know the difference, but the general public does not. Posting this does nothing but cause unnecessary worry for people.
@saylordocs I remember playing this exact video all the time on my TV in my college dorm room in 2016-2020. Probably racked up hundreds of views from me alone 😭
@edreas@srob_ 1.) Colder? 1 hour of sunlight has a negligible effect on temperatures in the winter, especially during the coldest months.
2.) More accidents? Street lights exist now, have you heard of them?
3.) Yes, fck those kids. I went to school in the dark every morning in the winter.
@wxtaylorwarwick@LaurenceTobias1@nynjpaweather Agreed. I had to be up at 5:45 and wait for the bus to get me at 6:30am my entire life when it was dark. Now that I’m an adult, I am over the 4:10pm sunsets in the winter. It’s terrible for adults’ mental health. This bill needs to pass.
@abrkylaw@BigJoeBastardi Kind of like how New York’s power grid performs beautifully in sub zero temps, but Texas’ grid shut down during a cold snap a few years back right? And Ted Cruz fled the state to go on vacation?
