I am so humbled, and honored to be named Broadcaster of the Year from NWA.
This is something I never ever dreamed would happen. I am beyond grateful for such an amazing organization, and to my fellow colleagues.
Thank you for all the support and kind words. 🔆⚡☔
🏆 The Broadcaster of the Year Award goes to Aubrey Urbanowicz @WeatherAubs for educating the public through a historical weather lens and providing public service through education. #NWAS24 👏
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.

Rain overnight! Temps drop for the weekend. Spotty showers during the day Thursday but most are overnight tonight.

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!
