So THAT is why it doesn't match. We were nearly pulling our hair out this week trying to figure out why it was so off from our official forecast. It's been busting overnight radiational cooling lows and we've been manually adjusting down, but the app kept saying it was 10⁰+ off.

The year Trump broke the federal government How DOGE and the White House carried out a once-unthinkable transformation of the nation’s sprawling bureaucracy.

Missions were shattered. Entire agencies were deleted. Nearly 300,000 employees were forced out of the federal workforce.

Here’s a look into how DOGE and the White House carried out a once-unthinkable transformation of the federal government:

Overcast here at Juneau, so most likely no bueno for the aurora this go around. BUT Im so excited and happy for all the people seeing it for the first time so far south, it's an incredible thing to witness it dance across the skies first hand.

Old video from the NYE event earlier this year:

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.

We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.

We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

From sunrise to sunset, Hurricane Melissa is still a Category 5 storm as it starts to move northward towards Jamaica.

Keeping this thread going:

VERY interested to see how forecast verifies at historically native cities like Petersburg, Wrangell, Sitka, Hoonah. Major Tlingit and Haida communities that were founded in these locations specifically to be protected from weather. Impacts based forecasting on hard mode.

The eye candy doesn't stop 🤌 SAR winds showing warm core characteristics with strongest winds on southern and eastern quadrant. Couldn't ask for a better satellite pass.

Good morning from the Hurricane force system off our SEAK coast. That was a fun overnight shift. 🫡

Hurricane force low, the 4th storm in less than 2 weeks for SE Alaska. Fall is so back.

With silt-caked hands, University of Alaska Southeast researchers Eran Hood and Sean Fagan climbed steep rocks to peer into an empty Suicide Basin, hours after the Mendenhall River had crested below.

First thought for AAR: I may be in the minority here, but even as someone who uses noaa.gov sites daily...the tsunami.gov page is not the most user-friendly experience to navigate and get actionable info.

King Théoden asking Aragorn where Gondor was

WHERE WAS GONDOR WHEN THE DOW JONES FELL??

What about Troup County?

Opinion | Denali Will Always Be Denali At least a dozen other mountains and ridges in the U.S. already carry the name McKinley.

Trump's decision to revive the McKinley name for Denali, North American's tallest mountain, is "a slap in the face of recent efforts to acknowledge America's history of colonialism and restore Indigenous place names," Cassidy Randall writes in a guest essay.

Tomorrow night we'll be hosting a Q&A to talk about school & careers in meteo - particularly as it relates to this very weird & challenging moment.

Stopping by are @shawnmilrad.bsky.social, @mattlanza.bsky.social, @lucerowx.bsky.social, & others.

Putting a plug out there for an incredible weather app (EverythingWx) that was developed by Cory Mottice (Warning Coordination Meteorologist at NWS Corpus Christi)

It’s ad free, pulls information directly from the National Weather Service, and has a beautiful design!

I will mourn the day that our knowledge, research, and passion in the Weather Service is ever disposed of in favor of that used for the gain of a business or individual. I kept my job today, but I will miss everyone else who was motivated by the greater good of all people.

The AMS is temporarily opening its career services to all who need them, regardless of membership status, and offering dues waivers and meeting registration fee reductions for those impacted by job loss due to changes in the government.

I miss you.

When science becomes politicized, scientists have to talk about politics. Telling them to focus on the science is not productive and won’t get them to do it.

remember friday? that was ten years ago

If you’re an NWS met who will find themselves unfairly and unjustly looking for work, first let me say it’s terrible and wrong. And I hope you end up back helping keep us all safer and informed again sooner than later. This too shall pass (I hope).

Palate cleanse.
