We got additional images from the Saguache County EM of the tree damage from the damage scar. Given that, we got to upgraded the Sawtooth Mountain tornado from an EFU to a low end EF1. #cowx

Sunset at Lake Pueblo State Park. Sun is low, but still above the horizon shinning across the lake and rocky shoreline. Blue skies are dappled with mid to high level clouds.

Sunset at Lake Pueblo State Park about a week ago. Sun peaked out between the clouds in such a way that it lit up the rocky shore in a warm glow. #photography #landscapephotography #sunset

After a bit of data analyzation, confirmed a mountain tornado that occurred earlier this month across Sawtooth Mountain. This tornado was at about 11,300ft and is only the third confirmed tornado in Saguache County since 1995! #cowx

Relaxing evening at Lake Pueblo State Park and just enjoying sunset along the rocky shoreline. Funnily enough my favorite image from this evening came before the sun even set below the horizon! Even saw some creepy crawly wildlife before heading out😅 #sunset #photography

Sunrise at Lake McDonald in Glacier National Park. While this morning didn’t go as planned, sitting along the water and enjoying the changing morning sky was nice too! #photography #mountains

Sunrise at lake McDonald in Glacier National Park this morning. Some modest lenticular clouds were in place, which added some additional interest to the scene. #sunrise #landscape #photogrpahy

Now to be fair, I prefer to chase with partners, just feels safer that way and more fun to share the experience, but that’s a hard thing to make happen for me (friends from work are usually on shift when I’m off, and too much of an introvert to ask other CO chasers if I can tag along lol😅)

Chasers, need some help/advice… how do you handle anxiety of going out chasing solo? This used to not be a problem for me, but over the last 2ish years it’s become crippling and I can’t ever get out without a partner now. Like I want to go out to SE Colorado tomorrow, but my brain just shreds that.

Fun evening with radar ops and tracking this storm across the entirety of northern El Paso County. Some shear and moist upslope flow getting it done. #cowx

High based convection with high DCAPE values of ~1200-1400 J/kg means this forecaster gets to have fun with radar operations! #cowx

Well just issued my first convective driven SPS for the season… for some marginally convective, yet gusty showers. But strong winds aloft and DCAPE of ~1000 J/kg gets it done. It’s certainly Spring in Colorado😂

I’m normally fairly quiet about things…

But I just want to cry, scream into the void, punch something… my heart breaks for my fellow NOAA/NWS family.

Your work mattered, you save lives…you matter! We have your backs, and sending love to all those impacted today ❤️

Stable is for sure good! Vibe definitely feels better here😃 But for sure interested to see how it does during busy weather

First Bluesky post!

Howdy everyone, my name is Cameron, I’m an NWS meteorologist, photographer (mostly landscape), and storm chaser. The attached images sum me up a bit😂

I hope to be a little more active here vs other sites. Intrigued to test out the waters here!
