Gus has been a good helper so far! (despite his tendency to try and chew on the yarn)

Besides all of the cooking/baking things I share (when I remember to take photos...🫣), I've been channeling my "penultimate months of PhD anxiety" into learning how to knit! I've been working on a sweater for a few weeks now, and it's actually starting to ~look~ like a sweater 🤩

Congratulations to the students winners of the First Symposium on Tropical Meteorology and Climate at the @ametsoc.org 106th Annual Meeting in Houston! 🌤️🌎
A sincere thank you to our judges for your time and expertise in making this event a success. 👏🌀
I am gobsmacked & honored to have received awards for both of my presentations at the AMS Annual Meeting last month.
I want to thank the conference organizers & those who gave me helpful feedback on my research. These interactions will help me shape this work as I enter the final months of my PhD.
February 18, 2026 | stress baking + big research group meeting tomorrow = pumpkin cheesecake muffins 🎃

February 8, 2026 | yesterday was busy! Meal prepped chicken stew for lunch during the week, made tzaziki dip for falafel wraps, and made gluten free cinnamon rolls for a party (cream cheese frosting not shown) (also these were a mess to make and don't look pretty 😅) 🍗🍲🧆

February 4, 2026 | whoops, it's been a while! I can only blame 25% of it on AMS. Anyways...I made chicken lettuce cups with air fried green beans tonight 🤷🏻♀️🥬🍗
05.02.2026 02:33 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Oh it was.... Hopefully we both have better luck next year! Otherwise I'll be convinced I'm cursed and can never quietly travel to AMS again 😂

Ughhh. Thankfully my journey to AMS this year wasn't as bad as in 2025, but I can only imagine and sympathize with yours!
Lol, of course united didn't! I'm just thankful my bag arrived in one piece. It's crazy how things are either quiet or piling on all at once!
Oh, and 3. One of my cats puked twice within 10 minutes of me getting home 😮💨😂

I do think you beat me, but my entry isn't bad:
1. United makes me valet/gate check my carry on bag in DC, doesn't put it on the plane despite it being on the tarmac (see pic), then takes 30 hours to find and deliver it to me in Albany
2. My car wouldn't start so I had to drop $260 on a new battery
This is my final AMS as a student, and I am also interested in any job opportunities in applied meteorology, research-to-operations, and forecast improvements, with foci in extreme precipitation and hazards. If you would like to meet up, let me know - I'll be here all week! 😊

Today at #AMS2026 I am presenting both a talk and a poster from my PhD work (which I will be finishing this summer! 🫨).
My talk will cover 7 years of storm-total precip verification and my poster digs deeper into the driving mechanisms of a poor forecast from Hurricane Henri (2021). 🌧️
Ooh, what's the name of the restaurant?
24.01.2026 01:48 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I completely agree. I am not huge on daily weather monitoring/watching models and it's been a large source of imposter syndrome since I started undergrad almost 10 years ago. There's more to being an atmospheric scientist than looking at models!

One of my goals for 2026 was to learn how to knit! I've been crocheting for over a decade and have attempted knitting a couple of times with no success.
I am SO pleased that this time knitting has clicked! Meet Poppy the chicken! 🐓🧶

Oops! It's been a while. I've got a 2 for 1 special:
Dec 21 | quinoa patties with sun dried tomatoes and spinach
Dec 22 | hoisin chicken and mushroom lettuce cups with pickled carrots
NCAR provides the facilities, tools, & data critical for atmospheric sci education & research. Leading computer models of the Earth System are developed here. The training, continuing education, & sci exchanges NCAR makes possible are irreplaceable. Its dismantling would be chaotic & devastating.
