I came out to my mom today, the person I was the most scared of telling for many, many years. It went perfectly. What a weight off my mind, body, emotions and everything. I want to talk to her as much as I can now, and show her how much I value what she did for me.

I've been in Greenfield, IA for the past 40 minutes. This situation is the among the most sobering one could ever experience. My chase partner is rendering aid right now in the hardest hit areas. Seeing help come together here completely reaffirms why I do what I do with Ryan.

Hitting a peak of 185,000 viewers and being able to relay weather information on a fresh and innovative medium is unbelievable. It will never feel real to me

I have very little left to contribute to today's coverage on Hurricane Milton and its tornado outbreak—I will never forget all parts of this day. We reached over 10 million people today alone. I wish nothing but the best for all impacted, and I hope I helped save somebody today.

Devoting my whole day to helping out with today's high risk tornado event. We will have the best coverage with advanced communication, near-term forecasting (not just reactionary commentary) and no advertisements. Power in numbers today, but don't forget your mental health too!

I was blessed to meet Lisa and her daughter Daisy while I was serving meals in Greenfield, Iowa. They told me their story while remaining unimaginably strong. This picture overlooks Lisa's home—telling the rest without words. We gave her family $30,000 raised by the Y'all Squad.

It's rare that there's a day I feel uneasy in the realm of meteorology, but my whole day has just been me sitting here and following along with the data coming from & the presentation of Hurricane Milton. All I can do is share the NHC's guidance and hope for the best.

Prepping for the night shift! 12 hour stream through tonight into Wednesday morning—then I can pass the baton back to Ryan so that we have complete nonstop coverage of this entire event if necessary. Starting in a few hours from now :)

I issued about 45-50 of these yesterday! Ryan saw the majority of them, while the rest served to make his coverage storm-by-storm more efficient. I found it useful to categorize my thoughts. What did you think of this product?

This weekend, we will be launching official “Y’all Watch” polygons on the stream. You’ll be able to see Meteorologist Andy Hill’s areas of interest in real time. Here’s an **example** of what they’ll look like.
