Dallas just becoming more Dallas. Abandon a 25-year-old arena with excellent (for DFW) mass transit connections and a vibrant (for DFW) neighborhood to build a palace on an old mall site on the exterior of Dallas.

2OT in Minny. Go Stars.

Oettinger will have games of brilliance, but just a little too often he gives up goals he should stop. It's why I consider him a really good goalie, but just short of an elite goalie. He's good enough to win the Cup, but that prob requires a strong d structure in front of him.

A new era for SPC Outlooks & severe storms forecasting begins today! If you haven’t seen the new outlook (severe & fire weather) graphics yet, check out the SPC website. www.spc.noaa.gov Increasing severe risk in the coming days will give a first live look at the new conditional intensity levels.

That's our goalie.

This will be ridiculously exciting, but 3 on 3 to decide a gold medal game is foolish.

Italy up 1-0 on Sweden in men's hockey! Stop the count!!

It could have been something unprecedented... or it could have just been the Pentagon being incompetent.

I'm biased because hockey is my favorite sport, but this encapsulates why I prefer the winter olympics. The summer games are still amazing, but winter is another level for me.

Surf's up.

More goals for more cats on the way 🤝

I'm glad that a real down-on-your-luck sports town like Boston is getting a shot at a pro championship.

Not that I post much here these days, but for the weather hive mind, any idea what is/was going on when MRMS files stopped being written to their AWS buckets for 15 hours late yesterday / last night? One example you can see from the timestamps: noaa-mrms-pds.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html#C...

i leopardi stanno circondando il voto italoamericano per trump

This Trump Flight Cancelations situation isn’t sustainable. Up to 4.5 hour delays at JFK on a clear sunny day AFTER FAA put its flight cap in place. The national aviation system will grind to a halt soon with these ATC staffing issues. bsky.app/profile/faab...

Out of all the anti-Trump sentiment I heard from ~2 weeks in Europe, the one that hit hardest: "We feel sorry for you." They must have a strange way of communicating their respect since I hear back home we're so respected now.

Quite the sunrise over DFW this morning thanks to nearby convection.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

First hundo at DFW this year. About a month later than the mean.

Clearly it was a purely financial decision.

Man, screw Paramount.

Greg is calling a special session with one of the tasks being redistricting. I simply ask, what more can you gerrymander? Put me in the same district as Pampa? (I'm currently in the little arm in northwest Dallas Co... it's cool)

Best news I've seen in like a month

Glad storms finally started propagating southbound a little more decisively. ~3" / hr just west of downtown Dallas... around 5" total near Sylvan and I-30. Could have been pretty rough.

I already want to jab a fork into my eye.

The wx community agrees forecasts matched our scientific skill. The end users say it wasn’t good enough. Frustratingly, we’re dismantling the ability to improve prediction science, communication services, and partner relations. Instead of blame or defense, we need to say: This WILL happen again.

Not that the Italian government is a beacon but maybe I’ll stay in Italy

I’m very happy this account migrated to Bluesky

The Stars were the trendsetters.

If you want to make the Stanley Cup Final, but lose, just sign Corey Perry.

Would make for a good fortune cookie message.

I'm definitely not still bitter at Nurse and Bouchard hurting my dear Roope's foot + Perry being Perry. But then there's the Florida Panthers. So I'm still torn... hopefully it goes 7 games and somebody has their heart ripped out. Like I said, not bitter.

Looks like the last time Dallas Co was in a Moderate Risk / Level 4 was a little over two years ago (3/2/2023), but that one was driven by both wind and tornado potential. Today's is driven by wind potential, although there is a large hail threat and some tornado threat as well.

Apparently the league and its very own rulebook disagree. I love hockey. I love the Stars. And yes I'm clearly biased. But sometimes this league is a joke.

Thank you, Colorado. Maybe MacKinnon was a Rantanen merchant.

Real Chicagoans know tavern style blows deep dish out of the water. And more appropriate for a communion wafer.

Nico Harrison may try to trade Mikko Rantanen if he keeps this up.

On the flip side of Rantanen going nuclear, Jamie Benn is not playing well. Brutal turnover to let the Jets get one right back.

I love Finland.

If I had Mikko Rantanen on my team I simply wouldn’t trade him.

*A wild Mikko Rantanen appears*

best hockey game I’ve ever attended. I thought they were done. And Mikko just put the Stars on his back.

I love Finland.

They gotta kill me with a Game 7 every damn year.

I love the Finnish people.

This is G4 all over again. Stars look reasonable for the first 5ish min, then the Avs pop one, start picking up momentum. You think, well, if the Stars can get to the room at 1-0, that'll do, but then the Avs keep the pressure on and pop another. Dam broke. Prob can't let it get to 3-0 in the 2nd.

Ted is one of the most dedicated folks with whom I worked in the NWS, esp when it came to training the next generation of forecasters. The agency gained so much from his work. Most importantly, he alerted me about Mike’s Chicken in Dallas, which has since become my favorite chicken tender joint.
