Atmospheric scientist, storm chaser, adventurer, teacher, author. Senior meteorologist at @MyRadarWX. Usually found frolicking in giant hail. Harvard/MIT 🌪
- I had a crazy neighbor who once said “you think you know more than me about this stuff just because you went to Harvard and I drive a truck?” “Yes. And you’re probably a better truck driver than me.” It’s called education within a field. That’s not a controversial thing. 😂Replying to @MatthewCappucciIt's crazy that you think your academic pedigree means you're an authority on the subject.
- TSA might want RealID, but I have the realest ID.
- The lady at the DMV took my picture for the license/registration. Then she asked “body type?” “Um, slim to average… I guess…?” “Of the vehicle.” “Oh.” *she laughs hysterically for 3 minutes* Now she is telling all her coworkers and I can never show my face here again.
- It’s not a political statement for me as a Harvard-degreed atmospheric scientist to say that elected representative Marjorie Taylor Green doesn’t know what the hell she’s talking about. She’d be equally qualified to fly a Boeing-737, practice nuclear medicine or train zebras.I am introducing a bill that prohibits the injection, release, or dispersion of chemicals or substances into the atmosphere for the express purpose of altering weather, temperature, climate, or sunlight intensity. It will be a felony offense. I have been researching weather
- Absolutely speechless. I selected this apartment so I could watch the planes take off and land every night; never imagined I’d look out the window to see this. Praying for the folks onboard American Airlines Flight 5342. I’m so sorry I can’t string together a better sentence.
00:00 - BREAKING: All of Puerto Rico — every town, neighborhood, house — is without power. That’s 1.4 million households. Winds over the southern portion of the island have gusted 80-100 mph, but elsewhere winds have been much lesser. Despite this, the grid is tenuous at best.
- I’m really losing faith in the American populous. A degreed meteorologist — DEGREED — just reached out to convince me Helene was manipulated due to “sharp dry slot angles.” We need to stop making willful ignorance socially acceptable. Being wrong isn’t “equal” or “valid.”
- As a meteorologist, I’m in a very difficult boat. If I put out good, quality information, it’s dwarfed in engagement by spam, clickbait and foolish hype/conspiracies. But if I spent my time correcting misinformation, I’d have no time ever. What can one realistically do?
- BREAKING: United Airlines 512 continues to remain in an isolated area at Reagan National Airport. A large emergency presence is visible. ATC said "I'm sorry to have to do this to you... We have an unconfirmed bomb report... We've got to get you away from the airport."

00:00- Solution: don’t.A frightened motorist prays as she and her passenger drive through a flooded tunnel, after severe thunderstorms caused flash flooding around Detroit Metro Airport.
00:00 - 🤮 A meteorologist that was flying through the eye of Hurricane Melissa puked on-air while dealing with serious turbulence. tmz.me/uWC6qDZ
