It's dry here in WNC. Wildfire danger is high. #asheville

I'm trying to remember my first movie experience but my memories are conflicted between actually being in the movie theater vs. seeing the movie at home (VHS) after a trip to West Coast Video.

Really pretty morning. #Asheville

after careful study, I believe only people born between 1975 and 1995 should be allowed to use the internet

Unreal that after close to 2 decades, trusted meteorologists are not doing their due diligence of comparing photos they receive & verifying legitimacy. Google Lens is your friend. Having a keen eye for AI generated imagery does take skill but by now you have to be cynical and use context clues.

What do you think? This is ~455 ft traced out on Google Maps. Do you think Kyle Schwarber's home run went farther per video evidence? It's difficult to see its actual landing location on various replay views. #Phillies

All I want for Christmas is for the Phillies to somehow get this NLDS to game 5 back in Philly. Pretty please.

All the discussion of to bunt or not to bunt goes away if the Phillies just put up like 7 runs in the first five innings. Maybe they win 3 in a row? Yeah, not likely.

As it stands right now, this is looking like a poor fall foliage color season. Green 🍃 on the branch and then dead 🍂 on the ground. I'll hold out hope until we get into the mid month.

Wheeler cameo at the end. *gasp*

When it comes to spotting AI imagery, I like to bring attention to the "smooth wrinkles" oxymoron. It's a common characteristic.

Would like to see this type of cold front sooner rather than later. (this was mid Oct 2024) Waiting....🥱

These houses were deemed unsafe 10 years ago. There's a decent chance they have been unoccupied for some time now. ****** islandfreepress.org/outer-banks-...

Not often you'll see relatively light winds associated with a hurricane, other than within its central eye Humberto interacting with Imelda, creating a 'col' like region of slack winds between the two of them

The U.S. used to have 400-500 lightning fatalities a year. Globally, we see 24,000 fatalities a year from lightning - many of them occurring at sporting events. Really shameful to see this on Big Noon Kickoff.

To the meteorologist tv dude from upstate SC who jumped far too early on the developing tropical cyclone early model runs and unnecessarily scared people in WNC and upstate SC.... Do better.

I don't think you can get any lower on the forecast confidence level for future Imelda. In fact, I probably shouldn't even type "Imelda". Will it fully develop enough to get a name? That aspect along with forecast timing and track is so very low at this time.

A year ago the NWS in Greenville sent out the warning that Helene would be catastrophic

This video is a 10 out of 10 on the yikes!-o-meter. youtu.be/bUNVdCduGKg?...

This is not the look of a system that wants to go gentle into that good night. Interests in the Bahamas and southeast U.S. should monitor the forecasts closely over the coming days.

Got my eye on future Imelda. If trends hold, there will be rainfall impacts in western North Carolina. But that's all I say now considering the anniversary we're approaching and the need for more model agreement/consistency.

I find I can’t muster a proper response to either the Tylenol madness or the U.N. appearance. At some point it is just too ridiculous. It would feel insane to offer sane commentary.

The fan who caught and returned Mike Trout's 400th home run ball had one small request from the 3-time MVP. He wanted to play catch with him 🥹

This day one year ago, odds were increasing that a tropical cyclone would develop in the coming days. Here is the Tropical Weather Outlook by Robbie Berg. #HeleneAnniversary

Donald Trump is way less popular than he wants you to believe. And you are significantly more powerful than he wants you to think.

Here's a look at NHC's tropical outlook for September 19, 2024. Not much to show for it on the satellite picture from DSCOVR EPIC. #HeleneAnniversary epic.gsfc.nasa.gov/enhanced?dat...

The picture quality on Amazon Prime for Thursday Night Football is right up there with Apple TV+ and their baseball coverage.

I think many of us are having similar feelings.

Aurora over Lake Superior. Last night’s geomagnetic storm brought about auroras as far south as Colorado. Details at today’s spaceweather.com

I'm shocked that Philly sports talk has a negative slant on the Eagles win and their 2-0 start. Shocked I tell ya. 🙄

I decided to call and audible and drove to Black Mountain, NC for dinner last night. We weren't disappointed in the least. Went to a place called The Pure and Proper. The food was delicious and the server was excellent. We sat outside and it didn't hurt that last night's weather was 100%.

Good morning. The Phillies lead the Dodgers by 4 games for the second seed and lead the Mets by 6 games for the division. 21 left to play.

This story is WILD. Trump sent Seal Team 6 into North Korea to plant a listening device. The entire thing went sideways within minutes of landing when they noticed a fishing boat near the beach. They killed everyone on board, sunk the bodies to cover their tracks, and fled. Congress was never told.

Amazon's eero just came out with a neat product. It's called Signal. When there's and internet outage, it will immediately connect to your cellular plan and keep WiFi flowing through your house or business with interruption. Pretty cool. eero.com/shop/eero-si...
