Dude, that's amazing! Any shots of what the occlusion updraft above it looked like?

Full panorama of the 2025 Dickens/Wellfleet LP tornado+supercell!
View is looking ESE up into the mesocyclone. The RFD clear slot is visible in the upper right, and in the distance on the bottom left you can even see a bit of the FFCB. Stationary supercell with deviant westerly tornado. Perfection!
And me!

The moon is occulting Mercury right now!
For #AMS2026 - John and @pamknox.bsky.social report that Elevator #14 at the headquarters Hilton should be avoided at all costs. They had to be freed from it by Houston Fire Dept after it got stuck, and the FD told them it happens regularly with that elevator.

Another of my recent images and a rare backyard capture, this is ~100hrs on the Veil Nebula complex, a large supernova remnant in the constellation Cygnus

Ha, I just suggested that too but showed up too late. Such a good book.
I really thought you were referring to dx here
Getting reallllllllllly tired of my profession being painted as the bad guy when we're all just a bunch of nerds who want you to be safe from tornadoes.

I'm using CM1, a high-resolution cloud model
Just trying to simulate a tornado but the ring of turbulence I added turned out to be the one ring of power, and I have captured the direct attention of Sauron himself.
This is hands down the most extraordinary dropsonde in Atlantic recon history.
Calling all ensemble forecast system enthusiasts! The State of Texas is funding development of a new ensemble prediction system (100 members, 2km grid spacing) with an embedded WoFS interface, to be developed at Texas Tech! Passing along 3 open research scientist positions towards that development:

Nice! I've never tried nor made a bochet, but I've read a lot about them and heard about this recipe and so I figured I'd charge head first into trying to make it. Hopefully it turns out as well as I'm hoping! It's a fun hobby, but with any hobby, gets more expensive the more you learn about it.
Thanks! It will probably get lighter if anything. The second picture is deceiving since the peaches are floating up top, but I'm guessing the final color will be a deep amber, a little between the darkest and second darkest colors on the plate.
Pot and crockpot filled with carmelized honey. On a paper plate there is a color wheel of the caramelized honey, ended significantly darker and with a toasted marshmallow smell and flavor.
All 6 gallons of must in the brew bucket with 39 Colorado peaches with skin and a few pits for added tannins and complexity.

Finally: AI cannot do your job, but an AI salesman can 100% convince your boss to fire you and replace you with an AI that can't do your job, and when the bubble bursts, the money-hemorrhaging "foundation models" will be shut off and we'll lose the AI that can't do your job, and you will be long gone, retrained or retired or "discouraged" and out of the labor market, and no one will do your job. AI is the asbestos we are shoveling into the walls of our society and our descendants will be digging it out for generations:
This whole section really.

Still working on it, trying to get turbulence handled well. I'll hopefully be presenting at the AMS annual meeting and maybe will try to throw some pretty animations on here before that!

If it entices you: the essay prominently features a bonkers housing nonprofit called "Aspiring Anew Generation" that was almost entirely generated by ChatGPT and, shortly after their presentation at the OKC City Council (who voted to approve their involvement) was suspended on suspicion of fraud.
The latest eruption of Kilauea is underway, and she's shootin' sideways this time around!

This piddly downburst obliterated my pepper plant I've been nursing all summer long, and have been anxiously waiting to try. Some of the peppers probably only had 3 days left to ripen. π€¬
Unbelievable footage from NOAAβs Hurricane Hunters inside the eye of Hurricane Erin.
Simply incredible.
Was driving down 35 at the time. They had condensed wingtip vortices on some of the maneuvers. Was pretty fun to see them doing touch and goes at Westheimer
