@aaronplasBPS Surprised to get the email about potential closure again tomorrow. Snow should wrap up by 1am, plows out overnight, sunny tomorrow. Hope the area districts can look at details of forecasts & timing for each event instead of trying to follow a blanket rule like NWS labels.

Hey @aaronplasBPS if BPS is going to cancel tomorrow can you help us parents out and call it soon? My 3rd grader has a ridiculous amount of homework and I'd rather not have us both in tears half the night only for there to be no school tomorrow :P

@tsmitty1206 @NWSOmaha @stylistshannon Douglas County Emergency Management Agency (DCEMA) is responsible for activating tornado sirens.

[Kate @geekate]

@mawarren34 @NWSOmaha Somebody at the county emergency management made a mistake activating the sirens when they shouldn’t have. Nothing to do with NWS.

[Kate @geekate]

@NWSOmaha Sirens going off in Bennington, is there any wind/tornado threat?

[Kate @geekate]

@nmaestas It’s ok to not be ok. It won’t be like this forever. And hey, for as much as you get shit on by internet strangers, you’ve also got a lot of other internet strangers rooting for you. You got someone you can reach out to for support?

[Kate @geekate]

@rarmstrong13 @nmaestas I’m sure the boys would. And Leah wouldn’t eat any turkey regardless lol

@SerweWX Cool info about the hours of daylight and chlorophyll! I somehow never even thought about it before. Fall colors are really starting to pop now in Omaha too 🍁

@NWSOmaha Any idea when we might see a return to seasonal daytime temps? And/or any decent cloud cover? 🥺

[Kate @geekate]

@SerweWX Amen

[Kate @geekate]

@SerweWX THANK YOU. People always pull this bit in the spring but those of us who hate the heat are having major Groundhog Day vibes now with this summer that refuses to end 😫
