#HispanicHeritageMonth Spotlight: Andrea Lopez Lang @alopezlang.bsky.social is a professor at @uwmad-aos.bsky.social. She served as AMS Councilor, chair of the Board on Enterprise Economic Development, and Associate Editor for Monthly Weather Review and Weather and Forecasting.

We’re thrilled to welcome Bee Leung to our faculty! A cloud physicist and mesoscale meteorologist by training, her research looks at the physical processes driving land-aerosol-cloud interactions. Learn more about Bee in our Q&A: www.aos.wisc.edu/news/q-a_wel...

Congratulation Elena! She’s doing awesome work to assess sources of subseasonal prediction skill in our research group! wpo.noaa.gov/wpo-ucar-cpa...

Confirmed severe hail for Fitchburg!

Join our team! We're seeking lecturers to teach AOS 100: Weather and Climate, and AOS 102: Climate and Climate Change during the Fall 2025 semester. More information and application details can be found in the job postings. AOS 100: go.wisc.edu/13us81 AOS 102: go.wisc.edu/g48zzv

📢 The 2025 @ametsoc.org Washington Forum & Summer Community Meeting on weather, water, & climate enterprise policy & community is ~2 weeks away📢 Keynotes: Marcia McNutt (@nasonline.org President), Craig McLean (Former NOAA Asst. Administrator) & a Congressional Rep. www.ametsoc.org/ams/meetings...

One of the motivations for NOAA’s (a Department of Commerce agency) creation of this list was to quantify the economic importance of weather and climate information for the US. It is widely used to support further investments in weather and climate operations and science at the federal level. 🧐

UW–Madison is the birthplace of satellite meteorology, and that legacy of innovative research continues today, helping keep people and communities safe. news.wisc.edu/beyond-the-w...

2nd Call: @justinminder.bsky.social and I are seeking a postdoc to perform research on the characteristics and predictability of rainfall events over the Catskill mountains that impact the NYC water supply. Application deadline is this Friday 5/9. www.atmos.albany.edu/facstaff/tan...

AOS Professor Dan Vimont spoke with Wisconsin Public Radio about the repercussions of cuts impacting the National Climate Assessment.

The plan “…eliminates NOAA's Oceanic and Atmospheric Research (OAR) Office and its 10 research laboratories and 16 affiliated Cooperative Institutes…one only needs to see what NOAA research has provided to the U.S. taxpayer and imagine where we would be without…” www.ametsoc.org/ams/about-am...

It's #DayoftheBadger! This year, we need our AOS community to step up more than ever. Gifts help secure student internships, research experience, and career development opportunities that are essential for student success in a world where those opportunities have become scarcer: go.wisc.edu/3eyg67

In a new statement, the Board of Directors of the Meteorological Society of Japan (MSJ) expresses deep concern over recent and ongoing rapid reductions in scientific research and academic capabilities in the U.S., particularly in meteorology and the atmospheric sciences. Read more: bit.ly/4hRP6an

It's not something you hear often from the very people that spend their lives predicting disaster.

Statement: U.S. leadership in scientific innovation is at risk, with wide-ranging consequences for public safety and the economy. The AMS urges strong support for NOAA & other federal scientific agencies working in weather and climate. Read the rest of our latest statement: bit.ly/3DhfegUI

The forecast, data, model development, science, communication coordination and all the work that occurs because of NOAA’s activities not only saves lives but the work of NOAA also impacts nearly every sector of the economy. Life, business, & economic decisions can be made because NOAA exists.

The AMS is temporarily opening its career services to all who need them, regardless of membership status, and offering dues waivers and meeting registration fee reductions for those impacted by job loss due to changes in the government. Read more: bit.ly/4gRiHAk

Visiting Assistant Professor / Postdoctoral Associate in Terrestrial Ice and Water Systems We are looking to hire a Visiting Assistant Professor / Postdoctoral Associate in the Department of Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences (DAES) at the University at Albany.

I was part of the 2018 cohort! It was an amazing learning opportunity, great networking, and really friendship building, experience. It also provided a great new perspective, for me at the time, on the wide ranging careers in the weather, water, and climate space. You should apply! #cake

As we get ready for a cold week, it’s as good a time as any to say that the polar jet stream and the polar vortex are two different phenomena and that they sometimes, but not every time, interact to give us cold air in the central US. ❄️🥶🌬️ www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-...

At the #AMS2025 student conference? Need to craft an elevator pitch? A skill you’ll need in any job. Stop by the Elevator Speeches Workshop at 2:00 today in room 206. My flight issues means there will be a special speaker in my place. It should be a fun workshop!

If you’re at #AMS2025 consider this town hall! The requirements for a federal government “meteorologist” (the 1340 series) are from the 1990s. Many undergraduate programs use these guidelines in curriculum planning. Modernizing the requirements would close the gap with a modernize curriculum.

Also closing Nov 30 - asst/assoc professor of atmos/ocean sci at UW-Madison @uwmad-aos.bsky.social - broadly in climate/weather risk, modeling, AI/ML, remote sensing, all the good stuff. Reach out to me (dept chair) or @alopezlang.bsky.social (search comm chair) or qs! jobs.wisc.edu/jobs/profess...
