@BradyBGWX Nothing wrong with knowledge, especially in a society that seems to be increasingly lacking of it! But, that's also what helps the "media" promote their narratives, if you get what I mean.

@IamApril317 That is terrible! 8+hr wait time is absolutely unacceptable for anyone, regardless of the reason one has gone to the ER. I hope your sister was finally treated and will be ok.

Seventy-three years ago today, debris from the Worcester tornado fell at Blue Hill Observatory including household items carried more than 25 miles by the storm.

@oxlamb Rwy 29 EWR!

@Eweather13 Well deserved!

@AndyHazelton With the latest update, how much of it is due to the recent upgrade of the model? There could be biases that we haven't learned yet. With that said, most guidance is pretty robust with the oncoming El Nino. Just some food for thought.

@DHTheWeatherNut @onwithjohnwx Part of this is due to a global helium shortage. They try to avoid using hydrogen, and can't at all in certain areas/situations.

@AntsMAGAweather You just jinxed us.. high humidity incoming in 3, 2, 1.. 😂

These observations are part of phenology; the study of how seasonal natural events respond to weather and climate.

@NEweatherLLC @DHTheWeatherNut Yeah, I've been saying for a couple of months now that I don't think this summer will be overly hot in the Northeast, and likely increasingly wet.

[Matt Douglas @mfdwx]

@RyanWeather Awesome! Thank you! Looking forward to the new SFS too once the data is available for you to do your magic with it!

[Matt Douglas @mfdwx]

@Frank1954BHO Of course!

@jaygardner549 @BurnettA919 I saw a report that it was 3 feet across at entry into the atmosphere, not sure how much was left once it reached the surface.

[Matt Douglas @mfdwx]

@BurnettA919 I try!
