Beware the I's of Summer ... Iris: (2001) Isidore: (2002) Isabel: (2003) Ivan: (2004) Ike: (2008) Igor: (2010) Irene: (2011) Ingrid: (2013) Irma: (2017) Iota: (2020) Ida: (2021) Ian: (2022) And I can't believe I feel the need to say it, #ThisIsNotAForecast

This may be the first joint convective outlook done by two Science and Support Branch meteorologists who had not previously spent time as a full-time SPC forecaster.

Last-minute reminder on the open SPC positions listed in this thread. They close either tomorrow or Wednesday!

Come work for me! I promise it isn’t all bad!

Arkansas vs. Ole Miss reminds me of the late 2010s Big12 …

🌊 #LittleKnownFact: The inward curve of the U.S. coastline between Florida and North Carolina isn’t random. Over thousands of years, powerful hurricanes have repeatedly curved back out to sea in this region, eroding the shoreline and carving the coast into its distinctive shape. #CouldBeTrue 🤷🏻‍♂️

More awesomeness coming soon to a browser near you from #SPCLabs. Also, we (SPC) are going to support this for our NWS IMETs!

Two (non-hydro)meteors on my way to work this morning. New record! (Parenthetical needed for all the weather experts out there … ;))

Slightly diminish a band: 97°

Slightly diminish a band: Dropping Pumpkins

I can’t shake the feeling I’m being watched …

Great news! I can now plagiarize up to 15% of my scientific journal articles and still get them published!! That's like a 15% boost to my productivity!!! #NotHowScienceWorks

What a time to be on the overnight outlook desk … 😳 #CryUncle

I may be a minority opinion in the meteorologist community, but I don’t take this as an attack. Nothing the official said about the forecast is wrong. I take it as a desperate plea to communicate conditional “intensity” and potential extremes. Area average QPF forecasts are not enough anymore.

Remember … It is only a derecho if it comes from the derecho region of France. Otherwise it is just sparkling damaging thunderstorm winds. #LittleKnownFacts #TheMoreYouKnow

If your Mesoscale Discussion lasts for more than 4 hours, please consult an MD (Meteorological Doctor). 😳🫢🫣

Today has been quite the year … #CanIGoBackToBed #NeedADoOver

Thunderstorm research lead at Gallagher with multiple locations available, requires a PhD in climate/atmospheric science/meteorology

WAR REPORT – MIDDAY SKIRMISHES At approximately 1200 hours local time, WPC initiated a sudden and unprovoked hostile takeover operation against SPC. The initial assault caught our forces off-guard, resulting in the temporary loss of strategic digital territory—specifically, control of our website.

Definitely a crappy situation …

What channel is the SPC Day 7 15% large size controversy on?!?

So, am I supposed to start my own controversy or do I just join someone else’s? Or is that not how things work over here? #IAmOld
