Good news! Updates have (largely) been completed, and we're ready to announce the 2026 spring forecast contest!

Anyone who calls themselves a severe weather enthusiast needs to try their hand at actual severe T-storm forecasting - and win a fun prize in the process! 😃

Buc-ee's is eyeing Far West OKC for a possible location and the first in the state.

C. S. Lewis, just to remind you what's important as we head into 2026

Absolutely screw @Microsoft after their crappy end-of-life update for Win 10 jacked up two perfectly good PCs. Incredibly disappointing!

I hate timezones.

Now *this* is a headline!

It continually blows my mind how poor NOAA's model documentation is.

There's just ONE WEEK left in our spring 2025 forecasting contest, and it's still a tight competition!

Here's a look at the leader board as of 12 UTC this morning. Arkweather continues to steadily gain points and has now moved into second place!

Does no one respect the sanctity of library silence?!

[Andrew Moore @Andrew_Of_Moore]

There storm.

[Armchair Forecaster @armchaircast]

As March comes to a close, so does the first month of the spring forecast contest. Here's a look at our leader board as of 3/31.

If_You_Feel_It_Chase_It has maintained a solid lead through the month, but folks are closing in. With 2 months left, it's still anyone's game!

Good morning everyone!
The scores from yesterday's forecasts did indeed bring some unpleasant surprises, but not in the way I expected. While my wind forecast did absolutely abysmal, my worst score (and a lot of folk's worst score) was my hail score. This was a head scratcher...

[Armchair Forecaster @armchaircast]

It's been quite an opening week for the forecast contest with over 600 severe weather reports spanning the southern Plains to the East Coast. As of 11z this morning, here's a look at our top 10 forecasters.

[Armchair Forecaster @armchaircast]

We've been making some updates based on your feedback! The forecast/monitor page now differentiates between LSRs that occur before the 16:30 forecast deadline (more transparent) and LSRs that occur after 16:30 and count towards your forecast score (bolder, not transparent).

[Armchair Forecaster @armchaircast]

Forecast, verify, win, repeat!

The spring 2025 forecasting contest begins March 1st, head over to https://t.co/n6aLueLCjg for details!

[Armchair Forecaster @armchaircast]

The reports keep coming in! As of this morning we were up to 461 total severe reports from Saturday's severe event across the Southeast. Additional reports will populate tomorrow morning as surveys conclude.

Be sure to check your forecast score as the new reports filter in!
