Confirmed: NOAA & NASA predictions agree a coming #solarstorm will graze Earth by Jan 19. Slow traffic in the solar wind ahead will likely cause a pileup before the storm so effects begin Jan 18. #Aurora possible to mid-latitudes. #HF & #GPS signal disruptions on the nightside.
Around 50 minutes ago we released a special 18z weather balloon for obtaining additional parameters to help in our severe weather operations today. That balloon is now at around 100 mb (50,000 ft) and is giving us crucial information today. #dfwwx#ctx#txwx
10 AM - The 15Z balloon data reveals a stout cap is still firmly in place. We suspect we'll remain strongly capped through at least noon. Latest guidance suggests the cap may erode between 12-1 pm. #dfwwx#txwx#ctxwx#texomawx

Researchers at the University of Hong Kong found there are 20,000,000,000,000,000 ants on the planet.
If the weight of all of those ants were added together, they would weigh more than all of the mammals on Earth.
Direct Hit! A snake-like filament launched as a big #solarstorm while in the Earth-strike zone. NASA predicts impact early July 19. Strong #aurora shows possible with this one, deep into mid-latitudes. Amateur #radio & #GPS users expect signal disruptions on Earth's nightside.
It is shaping up to be a HOT week across North & Central TX next week. 🥵 Many locations will see temperatures soar into the triple digits. Though the week will begin rain-free, rain/storm chances return mid-week and are likely to continue into the weekend. #dfwwx#ctxwx#txwx
