Rest in peace Oliver Tree Nickell June 29th, 1993 - June 14th, 2026

Your legacy will live on forever ❤️ Thank you to everyone who has reached out, shown love, support and has done incredible tributes for Oliver. The constant love, support and positivity is helping the family, friends and collaborators make it through these extremely difficult times.

Oliver is now back in California where he can finally rest. His legacy will live on through his foundation/endowment named “Dr. Oliver Tree’s Extremely Epic Grant For Baby Geniuses” coming soon. This is something that Oliver had put together before his passing, written in his will. We will make sure his wish comes to fruition so that more joy, love and art can be spread into the world, that was his final wish.

Love you all so much, Oliver would be so proud of every one of his supporters, friends and family.

Peace be with Oliver … ❤️

On this day in 2022, I witnessed an incredible spectacle, a tornado developing directly overhead. It touched down about half a mile away, and this 30-second timelapse condenses 14 minutes of footage showing the circulation swirling above me. This was a top moment for me.

A deadly Black Mamba is snatched mid-air by a Snake Eagle… but the hunter becomes the hunted as the snake twists free and locks onto the eagle’s talons in a brutal struggle. Before either can escape, lions arrive on the scene, turning the chaos into a full-scale battle-leaving the trapped eagle with almost no chance of breaking free.

Apparently I need to chase left splits more often if this is the view from work.

Springfield, Missouri just now.

Incredible hyper-lapse video of a large tornado moving across south Enid, Oklahoma! Captured with our Enid cam, you will see the tornado disappear into a curtain of hail only to remerge moments later! #okwx @KOCOMichael @NWSNorman @KOCOdamonlane

The 1958 "Breguet 941" was a STOL transport aircraft with the particularity of having a wing entirely blown by the propellers and flaps that could be deployed to 95°, enabling it to land and land over very short distances.

This will go down as one of the most remarkable satellite loops in the history of Australian cyclones.

Over the course of 12 days and ~3,500 miles, Cyclone Narelle made landfall on OPPOSITE sides of Australia at Category 3+ intensity as she tried to circumnavigate the continent.

WOW! An incredible photo depicting upward lightning jumping off the Burj Khalifa — the world’s tallest building — in Dubai. This was released Thursday evening by the Dubai Media Office as severe storms, including a few supercells with very large hail, battered the UAE. @DXBMediaOffice

The Burj Khalifa is twice as tall as the Empire State Building, towering 2,722 feet high. The highest occupied floor, floor 163, is at 1,921 feet.

Self-initiated upward lightning occurs from tall manmade objects, like skyscrapers and wind turbines, and is often “triggered” by quick changes in electric field by a nearby ground flash. (It can also initiate on its own though). They begin as positive upward leaders, eventually branching and forking outwards to distribute and balance charge across the underside of a thunderstorm.

So yes, lightning CAN strike upwards!
