Ho hum, more northern lights tonight.

Pardon my tower, but I’m starting to see some red and green pillars in the Twin Cities

Ok, might be worth heading out for an hour or two

Cautious optimism regarding northern lights Wednesday evening.

Very important context about tonight’s northern lights potential from someone with space weather knowledge

No words. I’m a block from home.

Y’all, go back outside right now!

Your regularly scheduled 9pm forecast has been replaced by me geeking out at the sky.

The reds are waning a bit, but this is still the beginning. There could be a couple more hours of gorgeous auroras

Just a 2 second exposure from KSTP

Happening now! This is through a ton of light pollution in the Twin Cities.

It’s another strong northern lights forecast tonight. There will be a small line of clouds to deal with from the Twin Cities to the north, but pay attention Tuesday night!

“That’s Oscar-winner Three 6 Mafia” is something I will say whenever given the opportunity.

Currently 34° in the Twin Cities, and 35° in Atlanta. *laughs deeply in northerner*

New Robyn drops Wednesday. Prepare now.

You have travel plans to/from Chicago Monday? No you don’t! Heavy lake effect snow is likely. Add this to everything going on with air travel, and you can bet flights are getting canceled too.

It’s currently 26° in the Twin Cities. I just put a low (!) temperature of 48° on the 7 Day. That means later this week, the coldest it will be all day is 48°.

My message for the last week: You will see snow in the air on the weekend, and some could collect on your roof or car windshield. This is exactly what I meant.

GAH

If you want to know what it’s like being married to me…

You will see a few flakes in the air Sunday, but you will feel some cold winds. Some wind chills will be in the single digits in the Twin Cities in the morning. They stay from 15° to 20° all afternoon. Who has a good chili recipe?

*whispers* Badgers?!

Made three tie blankets (infant, toddler, adult sizes) in the last 12 hours. These are going to a neighbor due with her first kid in a couple days. Yes, she’s a Huskers fan. Should keep the kid warm well into the second Frost administration in Lincoln.

They opened with it tonight. The level of emotions I would feel if I could see that happen.

Wow, I actually got a (polite, non-boilerplate) rejection email, saying someone else was hired for the position. Respect to that manager for taking the time and not ghosting.

Husky Ball Index is high this morning. That means cold is coming.

The gusty winds today? Blew all the leaves into this yard.

This is a two second exposure, but I can see Northern Lights with the naked eye in Forest Lake!

The latest on the cold and snow this weekend: • Highs in the 30s likely both days • You will see plenty of flakes in the Twin Cities • Trends show any *light* accumulations are in southern MN • Wind chills in the 10s likely most of Sunday

Radiohead played Planet Telex tonight, and my heart is full. 🌈

Big “shitter’s full” energy outside the house rn

Shot a story this morning, and I talked to kids from Rockford (MN) who drove almost an hour to come pack boxes of food for kids. Humanity is really kind sometimes, you know?

How many Radiohead references can you count?

It's Tuesday afternoon. Here are my latest thoughts on what to expect in the Twin Cities this weekend. Trends: More cold, less rain and snow.

Opening with Let Down. I’m not prepared for this show 😭

If I crossed it off, that means I got the Radiohead reference into a forecast. Video coming later.

Am I excited for Radiohead’s return to the stage today? I just fit 3 titles from The Bends into one sentence during a forecast.

If Wisconsin doesn’t top Nebraska, we’ve failed as an institution. If we need to, keep Fickell around one more year for motivation.

You’re going to start seeing pics like this on socials. Remember to ask yourself these questions: • is the person posting a meteorologist? • is there context? • are they using BIG SCARY WORDS? • is it more than 7 days away? Get your snow forecasts from trusted local sources.

Composite (left) vs single site (right) radar The composite of several radar sites can sometimes show precip when it’s barely raining at all. Why? Composites can include data from higher level scans that don’t “see” dry air in lower levels.

❄️❄️❄️Snow is possible in Minnesota next weekend!❄️❄️❄️ We will have moisture, we will have cold air in place, and there will be a low moving across Minnesota and Wisconsin. I'll keep you updated through the week, but you should know this is in the cards.

Windy forecast: Verified. I’m honestly surprised at how many people I’ve seen on ladders putting up Christmas lights in 35-40 mph wind gusts.

Ok, grounding into a force out at home with the bases loaded is complete. Now the Jays center fielder has to run into the left fielder while making the inning ending catch. These are now the rules.

Brb, doing a forecast really quick. Cuz of course.

Greatest. Baseball. Game. Ever.

Omg this is gonna end in the most anticlimactic literal walk off, isn’t it.

If this World Series game wasn’t amazing, I’d be really peeved Tennessee and Oklahoma is making the news start at like 10:35pm.

Just need this game 7 to go another few hours so they can say “It’s 1am in the central and eastern time zones”

Another 18. Let’s go.
