Last night's weather was nuts, and I am proud of the work we did on our broadcast.
I am so grateful for the work of our team and affiliate chasers. We were able to get visuals on numerous tornadoes and provide quality information.
Live hits with @floridamanwx and @Norman_Wx and watching @MIDWESTWxLIVE's Alan pick up a stranded pedestrian while CJ & @hurricanetrack helped clear debris from a roadway was bittersweet.
On one hand, it is amazing we can provide this coverage and do good in our community by working with chasers who share our values -- but seeing the devastation from yesterday's event was heartbreaking.
Getting recognition from folks like @PettusWX and @EvanFor2020 is pretty surreal.
We have almost reached 500 subscribers on YouTube, our forecast videos are gaining traction, and the quality of everything we're doing is so much higher than I expected within just 10 days of launch.
This is possible because of my team. They're so talented and their commitment to my dream feels so undeserved. They deserve so much recognition.
Thank you for all the continued support♥️
First ever broadcast was a success! Grateful for all the support.
So many kinks to iron out but overall I am happy with how things are coming together.
More storm chaser signings coming soon and our first forecast video tomorrow morning. #wxtwitter
