This is like bragging about your new girl who is a low 3 after you threw away a long term, stable, 7 mid who was your ride or die and most always dependable. Esp when it got cold in the Carolinas. #RipNAM
Big news for weather forecasting! 🌩️ NOAA's new Rapid Refresh Forecast System (RRFS) is now operational, delivering hourly updates, greater detail, and longer-range forecasts to help meteorologists better predict high-impact weather. noaa.gov/news-release/noaa-w…

We've got a great November weekend ahead! Sunday is the warmer day, but the nights will still be in the 30s.

NOAA decommissioned their long-time (decades old) weather model that everyone loved like a family member. A startup in the AI space took the model and ported the code to GPU, and now for $1/day in compute, the NAM-12 km is back @recast
Resurrected NAM-12 km from @recast Sometimes you can just do things.

I'm sorry...what?
A rare albino porcupine, a genetic rarity occurring in just one in 10,000 of the species, was filmed crossing a rainy road in North Pomfret, Vermont.

Foliage conditions have progressed rapidly, with about a third of the state now past peak. It's worth noting that "past peak" doesn't mean the show's over! Meanwhile, peak conditions spread west much more quickly than usual! Read more: dof.virginia.gov/education-a…

It took me 12 tries to record this. I'm going to blame Bear getting me up at 7am the last few days, haha. Rain overnight! Temps drop for the weekend. Spotty showers during the day Thursday but most are overnight tonight.

Gentlemen! That is NOT what we meant by thinning out the competition! 🦌 ⚔️🌳 Jokes aside, management practices (such as thinning) can help wildlife by increasing food sources and creating shelter. Learn more: dof.virginia.gov/forest-mana…

☀️ ❄️ It was a beautiful day at Atigun Pass today with high pressure over the Brooks Range! At 4,739 ft, it’s Alaska's highest highway pass. After a stormy October, the summit SNOTEL sits at 30" of snow (137% of normal). Have you ever made the drive over the pass? 📷ADOT #akwx

I'll arrive in the Fairfax VA area Friday night ahead of the @MLseverewxcon on Saturday 11/7. Others in the area who want to gather informally that evening can DM me here or email me at chrisvawx (on Gmail) for the location. It'll be a low-key meeting, so don't expect a party!

(1/3) GUNLOCK FALLS UTAH: Historic rains have resurrected one of the crown jewels of southern Utah, yes, even Gunlock Falls! These waterfalls only flow when Gunlock Reservoir is at 106% capacity and is flowing over the emergency spillway.
