Like most of you, I've been watching the Thursday-Friday setup develop the past couple of days. Strong Gulf moisture returns, eastern trough digging in, shear profile looking increasingly classic.
The more people who are weather-aware, the safer we all are as a community.
That's the idea behind what I've been building for the past 12 months. It's called Vortex, https://t.co/qND7hZ0I11 — a platform where you can trade markets on exactly this. Live tornado warnings, flash flood markets, hail reports, etc., NWS-driven, auto-resolved.
It's a prediction market wrapped in a situational-awareness platform.
Paper-trading only for now. Starts with $1k practice balance.
Timed this launch for a quiet week on purpose. Didn't quite work out.
