If you wanna use SatSquatch while chasing/streaming, go for it!

With all respect, we don’t sponsor chasers. Not who we are. We’re just small group that makes an app we want to use ourselves while chasing/forecasting, while keeping the costs low.

If you’re into that, great!

@WxByte Y'all looking for chasers?

SatSquatch sighting in the wild!

If I was the SPC, I would upgrade this area to a CIG2 tornado risk, as I expect a few strong tornadoes over the next few hours.

ICYMI - we recently released SatSquatch v3! The new version includes a ton of new features such as:

This is a cool update from @WxByte with their SatSquatch app! You can draw your own fronts, add pressure symbols, distance tool, pull HRRR sounding at ASOS stations, and add locations.

I (personally) wish we had been able to provide a lot more context and explain things more fully than through what we thought was an internal presentation. But that doesn’t mean anyone sharing did anything wrong.

Now back to my regularly scheduled lurking. :) 13/13

[Patrick Marsh @pmarshwx]

As for those who have apologized for sharing this information today, don’t worry about it. I would have done the same or similar things if I had seen something shared on NOAA social media channels. SPC is not trying to be secretive about any of this. 12/

[Patrick Marsh @pmarshwx]

SPC will always work to improve the quality and sophistication of the information we provide to the weather enterprise. It does not mean that all of it will reach the public in similar form or function. 11/

[Patrick Marsh @pmarshwx]

We still have work to do on how, and to whom, we *communicate* that information. This is why we are still year or more away from implementing something. 10/

[Patrick Marsh @pmarshwx]

What has been discussed today are ways we are internally working on those predictions. The presentation was designed to let science officers in the NWS know what we are working on and to begin soliciting internal feedback on the meteorology aspects of these predictions. 9/

[Patrick Marsh @pmarshwx]

SPC is working on ways to predict days where the coverage of severe storms may be low (Slight) but the intensity of the storms that develop may be greater than what would normally be expected. 8/
