Waiting for my daughter’s flight to leave and I’m sitting near the gate and there are SIX people with mustaches. Five are from Boston (I know because every one of them has a Redsox hat or a random “Boston” hat on). It’s a very Matrix situation. I won’t post the pic to protect their identity.

Rut ro. Hit a sore spot.

If there's one thing that Facebook Groups has taught me, is that very few people know what to do when confronted with very routine situations. "there's a hungry stay dog. What do I do?" "Is anyone else's power out?" "My internet isn't working." "When is bulk trash day?" on and on

In unrelated news: be afraid!

the press – once again – asking the important questions 🤦

Every four years I’m impressed by the social media soccer experts that emerge from the ether after not mentioning soccer even once in – checks the records – four years. We’ve at least migrated to a new app.

Getting a Fort Worth hydration break

World Cup watchers get the World Cup for stupid conspiracy theories.

All of us across the National Weather Service would like to wish you a Happy Independence Day. Have fun, be safe, and as always, stay weather aware. 🇺🇸 🎆 🎉

they should probably pull up a weather forecast

The Polyphonic Spree just keeps growing

The least-important fact check, but here we go: Saunas are typically 150°F+. D.C.'s Heat Index may touch the low teens late this week.

A stretch of upcoming record-breaking heat from the Midwest to the East Coast will bring potential health-impacting consequences. Soaring daytime highs, days-long duration of heat, and morning lows that will be record warm will compound the heat impacts. Visit weather.gov/heat on tips to stay safe.

The magnitude of the heat this week is impressive.

Democracy limps forward.

The latest NWS high temperature forecast for Friday, July 3, would put Washington (105°F), Raleigh (104°F), New York-Central Park (104°F), Philly (103°F), and Charlotte (102°F) within a degree or two of their all-time record highs.

Solid advice for a genius like Mel Brooks. For the rest of us…eh.

I have no idea what a ceasefire is

. @mcuban.bsky.social RE your AI PR theory: it’s the environment. We don’t care about people getting rich off of it. We care about what’s being sacrificed as a result.

Mostly when I watch a retro gaming video that says "no one talks about {game X}" or "forgotten about {game X}", I think, "oh, come on." BUT, @jparish.bsky.social got me today! I had forgotten about Gaplus, the sequel to Galaga! His YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/@JeremyParish

Giving strong ‘Spinal Tap’ Stonehenge vibes.

Presidents can be removed based on polls now?

Imagine being so self assured that everyone that doesn’t like you must have been paid to have that opinion.

So far this year in the U.S.: 66,103 record high max or high minimum daily temperatures, and 15,499 record low min or low max daily temperatures (>4x fewer). Globally: 83,571 record high max or high minimum daily temperatures, and 19,783 record low min or low max daily temperatures (>4x fewer).

Ohhh. A “Godzilla” El Niño now. *sciencing intensifies*

My favorite part of every solstice and equinox: the “actually” replies 😂

They keep saying the summer solstice is the longest day of the year, but we’re pretty sure they’re all 24 hours long. *Ba-dum tss* -Signed: NWS dad 🎁

I couldn’t bear trying to run in this silliness, but I did pull off a brisk 2 mile walk, and there was much sweating.

"When you get caught between Orleans and the Mississippi..."

Needed a moment of Zen, and bad photoshopping is one of my outlets. Enjoy.

My Reds’s season turned sour after a promising start and needed a break. Enter: the Mets.

This sentence was included on a reply to an email about scheduling a meeting I'd sent, and I am confusion. "Results will be involved to provide any information needed."

What an incredible photo of the scorekeeper for the Durham Bulls.

I did it! Hadn't messed with it in a few days and got bored for a bit today. I just went 82-0, think you can go 82-0? Play 82-0: www.82-0.com/share?id=nra...

This is an odd post text. The zero fire strategy is what is being phased out in favor of prescribed burning.

Coolidge was also born on July 4.

Did you guys know that a blue moon isn’t BLUE?! 🤯

I was told “no” to the hat. 😂

Bought a whittling knife that was very highly reviewed. Top reviewer gave it 5 stars but did say that it’s incredibly sharp and odd to retract and he went to the ER with a deep cut. Me, 30 seconds after opening it. Could probably use a couple stitches, but it’ll probably be okay. So much blood. 😂

This Memorial Day, we remember and honor the brave service members who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Their courage and dedication will never be forgotten. We are forever grateful for their service.

Ope.

Could you all hear my anguished groan as I dropped my Laughing Cow cheese on the carpeted floor of my office? 😢

Waymo’s more human-like than we even knew.
