Brief tornado near Delavan, Illinois moments ago

Audio on to hear the full range of humanity - people excited, mystified, disinterested, and then the payoff of the pilot at the end.

@climatecentral.org has published new data and graphics showing that this winter’s record snow drought is limiting water supplies in the American West and setting the stage for a more severe wildfire season: buff.ly/bWngCs1

You know, my scientific presentations aren’t always the best but I can say that none of my presentations tanked the global markets

This is what social media is meant to be about.

The Canary Islands enveloped in dust as waves and vortices swirl off of them. A fascinating, complex view.

📣 PLANES THAT DEPORT PEOPLE ARE FLYING MARCH MADNESS TEAMS TO GAMES! 🚨 ICE contractors GlobalX & Eastern Air Express have operated over 30 charter flights for at least 23 teams during this year's March Madness. Add your name & demand the NCAA stop funding ICE cruelty: bit.ly/dumpice

An 800+ mile long haboob sweeping across northwest Africa. My oh my...

Reno, NV, NO KINGS

Fun fact: This water will never make it to the ocean. Snowmelt east of Donner Pass drains to the Truckee River, which flows to Nevada’s Pyramid Lake in the Great Basin. #CAwx

Season 2 Episode 38 - Frame 1562 out of 2828

Having a really hard time deciding what message to put on my sign for tomorrow. Might just recycle the last half dozen or so and slap them all up on a big post. There's too many things to protest

I may have gone to Ball State, but I was born and raised a Boilermaker. Boiler up!!

Independence Lake north of Truckee, #California was on private timber company land, which put it up for sale. Larry Ellison wanted to buy it as a private lake for his billionarity, but the company instead sold it to the Tahoe Donner Land Trust. Now it has trails and free kayak use for the public!

The Arizona desert community of Martinez Lake hit 110 degrees Fahrenheit, breaking the record for the highest March temperature ever recorded in the U.S.

I snapped this one on Hwy 190 in Death Valley on Saturday. #Photography

I slowed down the lightning initiation video and it’s clearly an upward strike. These ~5 frames taken from a 240fps clip represent about 20 milliseconds in real time. All this with a handheld cameraphone 🤯

An impressive view of the tornadic supercell that produced massive hail in Illinois earlier today.

Boom! Had a great ight show over the skyline tonight. Here’s my first big lightning shot of the season. This is a 2-frame composite. Best as I can tell, two large, branching bolts struck the eastern antenna mast of the Hancock. #wxsky #ilwx

Yesterday's office - filming a German-language television documentary about cloud seeding in the western US with @driscience.bsky.social

This was about 3/4." hail in Chicago. Thought the accretion rings in this split hailstone were pretty neat. Had to do some sharpening because I was taking this macro shot quickly while trying to avoid getting pelted. #wxsky

A snapshot of the tornado tearing through the NE side of Kankakee, IL. This image comes from Cory Gerkin's live stream of the ongoing severe weather outbreak.

Footage coming out of Union City, Michigan of the violent tornado that just hit the area. The lake seen in this clip is frozen. Footage provided by @WSLPIG on X. #severewx #wxsky

I can't believe I've only eaten 2 hotdogs so far this year

The first photo I captured of the 9-23-23 Ada, OK supercell (after a few test shots). Yes, all three lightning strikes were captured in a single image! From my distant vantage point, this intricately-structured supercell gracefully danced under a sky full of stars with unmatched beauty. #Photography

NEW: The National Weather Service has confirmed that a 120-mph EF2 tornado touched down last night in Monroe County. https://fox59.com/news/indynews/ef2-tornado-confirmed-in-monroecounty/

Thank you, Erin Moulton for sending in this photo. This is hail from north of Bloomington.

Beautiful von Kármán vortices whorl over the East China Sea.

The Ranger Road Fire in Oklahoma burns brightly at night among city lights. Imagery captured early this morning by NOAA-20.

Redownloaded Duolingo recently and my doomscrolling is greatly reduced. Picked back up the Spanish and Korean lessons, and added Irish and Arabic to the mix.

Strong winds caused the Ranger Road and Stevens fires to experience rapid growth across the Oklahoma panhandle and into southern Kansas, seen this afternoon by the JPSS weather satellites. The Ranger Road Fire, the larger of the two wildfires, burned over 15,000 acres today.

Today Israel murdered more children. Hit with US missiles as they slept. Israel still blocks all journalists from entering Gaza - they cannot allow the world see their barbarity. Free Palestine

Oof...

what a shot

"Can Anyone Who Has Heard This Music Really Be A Bad Person?" (Kaki King)

Abolish and prosecute ICE

It's very likely that many (most?) strong cold-season East Coast cyclones produce waterspout outbreaks over the Gulf Stream. No doubt that this was a mesocyclonic tornado.

This happened 40 years ago today.

please move with compassion in how you speak with others as you see distressing information. bluesky has a tendency when news breaks like this to become an intolerable space where people yell at those trying to help them and be there. we need to hold space for community even as we’re in danger.

Muy mal (not, but ily Bad Bunny)

Goofed my dominant wrist changing a keg earlier, and all I can say is I'm really glad I don't have to tend bar again for another week. Flipping chairs was difficult to say the least. Also, f yeah, Minnesota
