Want to learn about a new composite parameter for forecasting QLCS tornadoes? Come to my #AMS2026 talk at 2:00 pm in 381A! You can also read the journal article about this work at: journals.ametsoc.org/view/journal...

🚨 QLCS fanatics attending AMS, here's your daily homework (1/2): 1. Attend @drkelsbritt.bsky.social's talk @ 2:00 PM (381A) about her innovative work creating a QLCS mesovortex forecast framework in the Warn-On-Forecast System. 2. Go read her related paper (doi.org/10.1175/WAF-...) ⏬(1/2)

Ecstatic to share that our newest QLCS work led by @drkelsbritt.bsky.social has hit EOR on AMS WAF! What started as "crazy idea" has evolved into something that could be a game-changer — probabilistic forecasts of QLCS mesovortex tornado potential in WoFS (1/2) journals.ametsoc.org/view/journal...

Today was the last day for many NOAA colleagues, and the grief that I feel is hard to put into words. Please know that your work matters and it is and always will be important. Thank you for your service and I wish you all the best on your next adventures ❤️

The 2026 budget passback plan calls for eliminating NOAA Research, the scientific backbone that keeps weather forecasts, alerts, and warnings accurate and effective. This would have disastrous consequences. Read the AMS statement, in partnership w/ @nwas.org: bit.ly/4cz2RtC

I’m finding it very difficult to work when friends & colleagues are being fired and my future in this field is slowly crumbling 🫠

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Happy #NationalWeatherpersonsDay to all my fellow meteorologists!! I know we are all exhausted with the daily chaos so make sure to treat yourself and take some time for your mental health ♥️
