Finland has emerged as a global leader in countering “fake news”. Here's how they've done it

Science! We have a new deep learning precipitation nowcasting paper under review! arxiv.org/abs/2512.09059

More ways we are killing science (gift article)

The decimation of science continues www.statnews.com/2025/12/05/r...

The Department of Energy is one of the most significant global supporters of physical science research. I joined my colleagues at the @scientistsorg.bsky.social Addy Smith, Alice Wu, Zoë Brouns, and Arjun Krishnaswami to offer our perspective and warnings on DOE’s reorganization.

From what I see, AMS isn't in this greedy cycle. They don't operate the journals as money makers (but they do have to break even and pay their staff to maintain quality and that seems to be missed by this!) #science www.zmescience.com/science/news...

Office is toasty today 🔥

This is quite disturbing- I know LLMs are a problem but the extent they discovered is really concerning for science www.nytimes.com/2025/11/04/s...

Anyone know what time to look for aurora tonight? I was planning to head to a more rural part of town for less light pollution.

Northern lights tonight! #okwx

Yes, it is this scary in science. We were world leader only 10 months ago. www.pbs.org/newshour/sho...

Dumb question: what happened to Ian from capital weather gang and his account on here? Also he had a list that I had pinned.

Alan has it right - we had NOTHING to do with "climate hysteria" and the sudden inability to focus on trustworthy AI for weather is only going to hurt us. We need to find a way to fund this critical research!

NPR’s All Things Considered covered our renewal cut to AI2ES. www.npr.org/2025/10/21/n...

Go vote for Brightband!

Anyone know an editor at “discover sustainability” a nature journal? They have signed me up to do a review that I did not agree to and they refuse to do anything but send me reminders every day. I have emailed them three times at the official address. Help!

Sunrise was brief, but beautiful this morning #okwx

Sunrise was on fire this morning and then if you turned around, you had a sunrise rainbow! #okwx

This was nice, someone not hating science and instead singing to it. youtube.com/shorts/AYm9w...

More news on AI2ES. Please help save science funding in general but also help save AI for weather! www.nbcnews.com/science/scie...

This is AI2ES, my AI institute. No way around it other than to say this is really awful. We are doing so many amazing things! We want to keep doing amazing things but without this level of funding, we will not be able to do so.

This is the definition of a failed social media platform.

Central Oklahoma needs rain too! Sigh. #okwx

Sunset was 🔥 tonight #okwx

This vulture followed us on our hike this morning … waiting for one of us to not make it back?? We disappointed if and all got back!

This was the other fun surprise on the south oval last night, apparently OU has a new robot lawnmower! We didn’t get to see it in action, but it’s quite large! Schnauzers for scale!

Random heron just walking down the OU south oval tonight

That almost looks like fire, but it’s just sunrise through the trees #okwx

Oklahoma lighting up the sky tonight! Photos from my husband #okw.

Sunrise was 🔥today #okwx

"Oklahoma is a map of America’s legacies. It doesn’t pretend to be a blank slate. Instead, its history offers a truer, unvarnished portrait of America, with its ambitions, its erasures, its stubborn beauty and its almost devotional violence."

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

This will only get worse as we keep cutting vital services! www.nytimes.com/2025/07/09/o...

Really?? www.kosu.org/local-news/2...

Because we all need rainbows and baby deer!! (And the deer live in a cemetery and are not afraid of humans at all so they just watched us walk by!)

We need to do whatever we can to convince congress to stop this nightmare! Our economy and health depend on it!! www.science.org/content/arti...

CALL your representatives!!! Today!!!!

Call your representatives today!! Everyone explain what this bill is going to do to them!! And if you don’t know how it’s going to affect you, talk about the cuts to the weather because it’s going to kill people, they are stopping all weather research! 5calls.org

Double rainbow! #mdwx

‘Like taking Smokey Bear away from the Forest Service’: President Trump's Administration proposes consolidating wildland firefighting into single agency -- Summit Daily News coyotegulch.blog/2025/06/27/l...

This is a travesty & a nightmare. The US was a founder of @gavi.org. It lowers global vaccine costs, has vaccinated 1B children, & averted 19M deaths. This pull out will cost 100s of thousands of children's lives a year - and RFK Jr will be personally responsible. www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

Email woes got infinitely worse today. OU broke my email completely. If you need me, use Gmail. Sigh. Hoping IT can fix when they open (I’m on travel so I’ve been up for hours!)

Timeline cleanse: very tasty French toast! Bonus: gluten free and lactose free. Yum!

plea of desperation: Mail.app has stopped working with OU's exchange server and I use it to juggle 3 separate email accounts. What else works well on Mac and speaks exchange and gmail?

Excellent reporting from @propublica.org - keep calling!!!

Anyone else use Notability and having significant issues? I have written to them for help but I'm super frustrated. I've been a notability user for 15 years and this past few months, the app is unusable on my iPad due to hanging sync issues. Alternatives?

Bucket list item - I was on NPR this morning via Marketplace morning report! Discussing AI and weather www.marketplace.org/story/2025/0...

I also am very worried. The budget cuts proposed are not just bad, they are catastrophic to science and to the US leadership in science.
