Cooler temperatures across the Central Valley and Sierra this morning compared to yesterday morning. Significantly more humid conditions across most of central and Southern California at 6am PDT today compared to 6am yesterday (minus the low deserts). #cawx

Very shocking that a serial liar would lie about this! Good job to the simps who believed.

Extreme heat is taking a toll on workers. New research shows how a 3-degree Celsius warming scenario will have negative impacts on labor supply globally. Dive into why this is the Fed's business in our latest #FedLit📖 https://fedlit.substack.com/p/issue-7-extreme-heat-decreased-labor

In outlining his reason for a national program of social insurance, FDR stated: "It is our plain duty to provide for that security upon which welfare depends." We lay out why that goal is as essential today: #ProtectSocialSecurity 1/3 🧵 rooseveltinstitute.org/blog/what-do...

The fascism and Project 2025 game is now wide out in the open as was transparent to anyone playing attention.

Please find your elections and get folks to turn out.

I wonder what all those feeble-minded people who said "Trump won't actually implement Project 2025" during the 2024 election season have to say now? Trump is president and Project 2025 is here. Those who called us "fearmongers" are now reaping what they sowed from their own stupidity and ignorance.

Thinking today of all the leaders in emergency management who dismissed the need to prepare for Project 2025 even once he was elected. Now much has been implemented in FEMA with more to come. www.disaster-ology.com/blog/2024/12...

The Democrats need to drop the current platform of the 2010s-2020s and return to the Roosevelt/Wallace platform of the 1940s if they want to win. Bring back the awesome New Deal economic policies of Roosevelt rather than focusing on social issues. Fiscal Progressive/Social Libertarian is the way.

When Democrats gain a trifecta, they must aggressively go after Russel Vought and hold him accountable. I'd love to see the man who said he wants federal workers to "live in fear" to be fearful himself.

Just try to imagine the public outcry and wall-to-wall media coverage if President Biden had cancelled $8 billion in funding to red states.

NYS AFL-CIO President Mario Cilento speaking at @governor.ny.gov's press conference this morning calling out Washington Republicans' reckless government shutdown:

Well, this will be an adventure. Hopefully, we have enough snacks. #furlough2025 #ourworkmatters #saveourservices #bettertogether

Time to take a step back and focus on the issues that really matter.

America is in the midst of a self-inflicted economic damage, federal government shutdown, and daily humiliation on the global stage. All within just nine months of Donald Trump returning to the White House with full GOP control of Washington.

Donald Trump and his lapdog Republicans just shut down the federal government after refusing to protect Americans from an imminent spike in health insurance costs. This is what the GOP stands for.

Trump and Republicans are causing health care costs for millions of Americans to skyrocket. Now, they’re refusing to negotiate to fix the crisis they caused. They are responsible for this government shutdown.

Republicans jacked up Americans' health premiums at the highest rates in years. They’re now holding the federal government hostage to keep costs sky-high. Republicans own this health care crisis. Republicans own this shutdown.

Thanks to Donald Trump and Republicans, the government has shut down. Here's what happens now. youtu.be/aUVPTZoCw2s?...

This shutdown is 100% the fault of the Republicans. You can't blame the Democrats when you have the trifecta. The GOP have a sick obsession with wanting to strip regular Americans of affordable healthcare to give their rich cronies a tax cut and Democrats are rightfully standing in their way.

Now that I'm not under the Hatch Act anymore, I'll say that if the administration posts partisan crap like this on an official government domain, then all federal workers should screw the Hatch Act and speak out how they really feel about this shitty administration. Rules for thee but not for me.

Welp this season was a bust. Pete Alonso was the MVP this year with Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor both having good seasons by the numbers. However, midseason trades are what killed this season for the Mets: Cedric Mullins, Ryan Helsey, Tyler Rogers and Gregory Soto. #Mets

Welp... Now it's time to focus on the NBA until Mets Spring Training in February. #Knicks

One programming style I am starting to adopt as I play around with developing wxdata is with background processes, I'd rather have a bunch of smaller functions complete a task rather than larger functions with lots of arguments. The former is much easier to manage than the latter.

Made lots of changes to the processes in wxdata that download GRIB data from NCEP NOMADS. Fortunately, I caught this early on, silly me wasn't using the GRIB Filter before but now the GRIB filter will be used to speed up download speeds due to lower file sizes.

A cool and gloomy day across the Inland Empire as the marine layer remains in full force making for overcast skies with temperatures 5-15F cooler today than the same time yesterday. RH is also 10-20 percentage points higher today than the same time yesterday. #cawx #cool #humid

Looks like a textbook +EPO is expected this upcoming week. Notice how similar the GEFS mean 500mb GPH solution is to the +EPO composite, low 500mb heights across Alaska and the Gulf of Alaska which also supports higher heights over Hudson Bay. #s2s #wxsky

In this edition of 'Ask a Met,' we answer a viewer's question about temperatures getting colder even after sunrise. ow.ly/QSyl50X2tpc

Another 30/30 season for Francisco Lindor! 👏

Latest 24-Hour RTMA Comparison shows cooler and significantly more humid conditions across most of central and southern California this morning compared to the same time yesterday morning. #cawx #humid #cool

Happy to share that some of the FireWxPy graphics are now live on the South Ops GACC website! Please share this around so people can know where to find these! #python #weather #cawx #firewx #meteorology gacc.nifc.gov/oscc/predict...

Modified @nycoloradan.bsky.social 's github example again, except this time for what the original example was about, the NDFD Hawaii grids. However, this algorithm allows us to clean up all the steps in the dataset so we can get the full set of data (the example had ds = ds.sel(step=0)). #python

WHAT. A. WIN. #LGM

Chartz has some strong words towards academics while acknowledging that he himself has a degree. How did he obtain said degree? Academics. Threw around some schoolyard insults too. @shawnmilrad.bsky.social

Wow! Today, FireWxPy surpassed 15,000 total downloads on Anaconda! I have some great things planned for the FireWxPy 2.0 series which is currently in development. #python #weather #meteorology #datascience #milestone

The autumnal equinox is tomorrow at 1:19 pm CT. Who’s seeing some good fall colors already?

Another day in paradise. #cawx #socal

Chartz is trying to push conspiracy theories about NHC to his 143K followers. Irresponsible, to say the least.

So I am starting to teach myself C++. I am very much a beginner at any language that isn't Python. I am having trouble getting set up in VS Code because when I install a library via MSYS2, I always get an include error when let's say #include <pybind11/pybind11.h>. [1/2]

Freedom of speech is protected by the FIRST Amendment – that means it's pretty darn important.

The test worked after building this in for all variables. This is also a great example of using metpy.calc.smooth_gaussian(ds['var'], n=8) (metpy is a dependency of wxdata) as applying this gaussian smoothing technique to the data got rid of all the erroneous streaks on the map. #python #datascience

Revisited @nycoloradan.bsky.social 's github example regarding the "1-D Hawaii Problem" in GRIB from a few months ago. I used that as a starting point reference and successfully began building a new xarray data array with the problem fixed. This will be in wxdata at launch. #python #datascience

Just got my COVID-19 and flu shots successfully before the rabid, raw-milk drinking anti-vaxxer "HHS Secretary" RFK Jr. tries to pull them.

One cool perk of my new job is the opportunity for continuing education. Part of me wants to enroll part time in CC to start a CS degree. Curious to how I'd apply being 10 years out of college? Tbh I don't want to transfer my grades from when I was 18-22 because they aren't a reflection of me now.

Welp unfortunately Walgreens told me that because my insurance changed to Kaiser, they can only give me the flu shot and not the COVID shot. Cancelled my appointment and will try CVS Minute Clinic because they take Kaiser from what I've heard.

Disney/ABC just caved & pulled Jimmy Kimmel for political reasons. Nexstar — which owns The CW + 200+ local ABC, NBC, CBS & FOX stations — is part of the same machine. 💥 Boycott Disney. Boycott Nexstar. Boycott their advertisers. Hit them where it hurts: the $$$.

2016 Republicans: I'm voting for Trump! I hate the Democrats because the sissy left always tries to cancel me. Unpatriotic spineless sissy snowflakes! 2025 Republicans: Trump's FCC cancels Stephen Colbert and now Jimmy Kimmel because Republicans can't take any criticism no matter how based it is.
