NEBRONIONS

We’re gonna be in or near the top 10 on Monday. We fully deserve it. Never thought i’d see it.

Visiting the Nisqually River in June 2023. writersonthestorm.substack.com/p/photo-frid...

Snoqualmie Falls is going CRAZY right now! Water levels are currently at 17.8 feet, the highest at the falls in 10 years! #wawx

Atmospheric rivers are one of the best ways to get damaging glaze icing higher in the atmosphere than traditional metrics typically suggest because you lift warm, juicy air straight from the tropics up into the mid to even upper levels of the troposphere.

The Immeasurable Cost of the December 10–11, 2021 #Tornado Outbreak Ninety-two lives were lost as tornadoes swept across Arkansas, Missouri, Tennessee, Illinois, and Kentucky. The article shares each person’s story and details all 23 significant tornadoes from the event. buff.ly/8xWUloo #OTD

Besides being able to pull code and run your own creation, another neat part of Jared's github is you get to learn the *how* of data retrieval and plotting through his code.

The Nisqually River, flowing easts off of Mt. Rainier, is one of the prettiest places in the world, but it does not lend itself to calm, easy flows even on normal days. The water is going to be very dangerous this week.

Co-sign these comments. 20 is an incredible highway. Please think of a little country inn outside of concrete that can’t be more than a few feet above flood level.

It’s cliche because of the use in TBC and to an extent Family Guy, but “Don’t You (Forget About Me)” is always my top Simple Minds pick. Just a perfect vibe.

I love that Indiana won, like every non-Buckeye who likes seeing different. I do feel that Jeremiah Smith's great catch to end the game, though not enough to change the outcome, was kind of an ominous, a "this ain't ovah" Charles Bronson type of thing.

Convective sleet!

It’s deep in the Daily Nebraskan article but TL:DR. Nebraska regents are idiots.

Cheers, Nebraska mets. We did something great. I’m proud to have been a tiny part of it.

Thoughts on Saturday's winter storm in Iowa, the terrible performance of numerical models with this system, and I make the (very weak) case that there could be a strong storm or two in northern Missouri as well. writersonthestorm.substack.com/p/weather-fo...

24 hours out from a heavy snowstorm in northern Iowa and the models are casually missing temperatures by ~10 degrees at 6-9 hour time steps.

If you see this, repost with your model of positive masculinity.

My in laws are from eastern Kentucky and my father came of age during Vietnam and there is not a song in the world that better celebrates my heritages. I don’t call myself white trash often but i’m definitely not ashamed that i picked tassles off of corn for minimum wage money when i was 14

I've reached the age where I am a little bit sore after shoveling a few inches of snow this weekend and breaking up the ice. Give me the rain every time.

Today's blog: on the joys of being right near the rain/snow line for an incredibly dynamic winter storm and the reality of 1-10" snowfall forecast ranges, because either or anything in between could happen in Omaha. substack.com/home/post/p-...

Mannheim Steamroller, TSO, Stirling’s holiday albums. Anna mendietta, john denver muppets, josh messick, ramsey lewis, scott williams, george winston, kurt bestor, and a host of others are 365 a year in my playlist. Also that amazing “bird and the bee” 12 days of Christmas version

May the rain/snow line be south of Chambana on Saturday night.

My take on this weekend's winter storm. Great system for isentropic flow lovers as this system will be devouring warm, humid, southerly upglide winds during its entire life cycle. writersonthestorm.substack.com/p/central-pl...

I don’t really get pecan pie as a concept, but it’s very good at drawing the safeties away from the targets I really wanna hit at dessert

Just a reminder as posts like the X version go super-viral that a lot of people are still swimming upward without the surface in sight, people who *really* don't want to be seen only as pawns for internet outrage or political points.

This has been an extremely effective method of learning for me. On par with grading a student who always got 99.75s.

There was the almost fumble that could have been an FSU TD and the dropped interception next to the two punts, too. Just an impossible five minutes last night, finished off with the bus.

I know nobody cares, but the way FSU is covered bothers me a lot as a scientist. Kids that already dealt with covid, the cfp scam, acc stuff, major hurricanes, and strong tornadoes then had to deal with their teammate being shot in the head. Bama played a different FSU team than anybody else saw.

My co-favorite college football team (i don’t choose even when 1993 comes up) curb stomped Alabama and that is the part of the 2025 season I choose to recognize.

I tell people that there are no perfect sentences. True 99.99999999% of the time. Every once in a while, somebody like Gordon Lightfoot spits out a "Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours?" Trying to equal that is like trying to match LeBron 1 on 1.

Looking at the atmosphere and forecast challenges around the mid-30s dew point hail event in eastern Nebraska on Monday night. writersonthestorm.substack.com/p/november-1...

Video still with a streetlight square in the middle. But it’s November 17th lightning.

For a couple of scans, this storm on the kansas state line had mid level rotation.

I have seen an 11/17 Nebraska tornado (2003). Odds were very long today for severe weather but these clouds southwest of lincoln are giving it their best go.

A few of my favorite photos of the November 11th aurora event from western Iowa in my Substack blog today: writersonthestorm.substack.com/p/introducti...

The 90 yard pick 6 is as valuable of a play as there is in sports. I know why OU fans felt like they were losing, because Bama “won” most plays, but the Sooners made winning plays. For scientists: use numbers to find importance.

There was a genuine week of mid-November storm chasing in 2015.

When i was in high school 28 years ago, i went to an Oklahoma football game that the Sooners lost by 62 points. They were still recovering from the NCAA’s mercy and a terrible schnellenberger hire. The next year was the last year that Oklahoma wasn’t at least a competitive program. 27 years ago.

My brother got married today and my wife is a CU alum and one of his gifts is going to be my storytelling of the event and he’s going to get PAGES of clemson/louisville

For the first time ever, astronomers have unveiled the shape of a supernova explosion just a day after detection, as the blast was breaking through the star’s surface. Achieved by our VLT, this feat will help us understand how massive stars die: https://www.eso.org/public/news/eso2520/ 🔭 🧪 ☄️

I did cry when the pillars started dancing. No apologies. It's been a garbage year. I had just gotten another of those "you're a great candidate but we're going with another person" speeches. It was nice to see the beauty of the sky without it trying to break my house.

Remembering the Edmund Fitzgerald and celebrating 125 years of safety improvements that have made Great Lakes navigation so much safer: writersonthestorm.substack.com/p/rememberin...

One of the tornadoes was visible from Jack Trice stadium in Ames. ISU/Colorado was delayed a while. This was the day that I kinda realized that if a big tornado ever hits a full stadium - Omaha's horse track was close in 1975 - there's just not a lot that anybody is gonna be able to do.

My entire timeline rn.

OK the Alaska people are still winning

So, everybody was looking at the sky, did anybody (especially in the Nebraska area) see a meteor just west of the giant Christmas display in the sky around 8:20 PM CDT? We were relocating so no chance to try to pivot my camera, but it lasted several seconds.

Aurora color guide! What creates the different shades? Different atoms getting "excited" at different altitudes The bright reds are a sign of a particularly intense event
