Many NWS offices don’t even have the resources to launch weather balloons twice a day anymore, but sure, expect them to have enough people to dedicate to watching live streams. I’m sure they try to do this but probably hard to focus on it with all the other tasks.

Honestly at this point, if the NWS isn’t monitoring chaser feeds in real time I’d ask WTF are THEY doing? They’ve got 90 monitors in their buildings. It’s 2026.

Sometimes I can’t even get the right office to show up here when I try and tag them.

@skydrama Yep! lol

[Jarrod @jc__wx]

@DJSnM Except they literally do release them. At least in the past they have.

@VORTEXJeff Ah, the “magic zone”

@thejasonhowell @Gilbert_S Thought of you after your recent FB posts talking these guys up.

@VinceWaelti @stsweathereye Why do you need your own ground network? Why can't you use the SondeHub network?

[Dr. Tamitha Skov @TamithaSkov]

WOW! For the moment, we have reached G5-level storm conditions. Not as strong as the Gannon Storm of May 10-11, 2024, but this #solarstorm is packing a punch! We still have two more yet to go, so let's hope we get a small break between them to allow the power grids a rest!

@VORTEXJeff Meanwhile in the Peoria area, we have to use CC to pick out the showers from the clutter

@geerlingguy Nice CO2 levels - wish ours were that low! Hard to do without all the windows open.

@thejasonhowell Ralph?

[Jarrod @jc__wx]

Nothing against RHY, but it’s just hard to take these new weather apps seriously that are directly tied to social media content creators, individual storm chasers, etc. Just my 2 cents.

[Ryan Hall, Y’all @ryanhallyall]

I'm actually super excited about Y’all Mode, a new premium feature in the @WxWiseApp built for folks who want to support our efforts & get next-level weather awareness during severe storms.

You can now turn on the exact same color tables and map/polygon styles I use during live streams. That means when I’m tracking a storm, you’re seeing the radar just like I see it, no guesswork, no disconnect.

@Central_IL_Wx @NWSLincolnIL I was out spotting for Tazewell EMA and we reported the damage at this location. We also found damage on Allentown Rd from the likely weak tor

[Jarrod @jc__wx]

@skydrama I was thinking the same thing. Thought I would see a 5% when I woke up. The ceiling certainly aligns with the 10%.

[NWS Lincoln IL @NWSLincolnIL]

🚨The severe weather risk for Friday evening continues to ramp up, with nearly all of central and southeast Illinois in a level 4 (of 5) risk. 🧵 #ILwx
