Reminder: the @ametsoc.org #AMS2026 5k fun run is still happening tomorrow morning! We'll meet at the Starbucks in the George Brown Convention Centre, *not* the one inside the Hilton. It will be a bit chilly but nothing we can't handle!

I've lost count of how many times I've co-organized or co-instructed an @ametsoc.org short course on #machinelearning. Excited to spend my Sunday teaching another ~60 folks this year! #AMS2026

That's a great idea. If you organize something, I'll attend as long as it doesn't overlap with a dinner.

We'll meet outside the Starbucks at the convention centre, run towards Sam Houston Park and along the river, and make a nice little loop back to where we started.

Day 1 of photoshopping John Oliver onto/into fossils in the hopes that he saves my old museum, the Paleontological Research Institution

I think he makes a great snail!

Fossil is the Murex shilhoensis type, a junior synonym of Favartia shilohensis, comedian is H. sapiens

Lagerquist thinks big with his work on a new AI model for hurricane rapid intensification developed with a team of university and NOAA researchers. He reflected on the benefits of working at a NOAA Cooperative Institute versus working in the private sector.

Has anyone installed Ubuntu on a new machine and found the wifi to be mind-numbingly slow? I know I've dealt with this before, but I somehow lost my documentation of the solution, and Internet forums are taking me in circles.

Volodymyr Zelensky's Oval Office visit ended early when Donald Trump and JD Vance began angrily yelling at him. Here's why women like Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton are too emotional to be president.

โ€œBut Accu-Weather!!โ€ They get their data from NWS. โ€œBut my local TV station has their own radar on a truck!โ€ Sure, and they use it to fill small geographic gaps in the broader radar coverage thatโ€™s provided by NWS. โ€œMy weather app!โ€ Itโ€™s getting its data from NWS.

Another way to put this:

Musk and his twerps have exposed us to pandemics, broken science, stolen all your data, endangered the U.S. payments system, threatened air traffic control, and cut off HIV medication to 20m people in order to save ::checks notes:: 2/10th of a percent of the federal budget.

Was literally talking to the union representing federal air traffic controllers earlier today about how thereโ€™s already a major shortage of air traffic controllers and the resignation offers they all just got from OPM could seriously endanger public safety.

I created it with some flyer-making website (Canva? I think?). I put 2 whole minutes of work into it.

When #AMS2025 session chairs let someone talk several minutes past the red light AND still let them take audience questions. Seriously, come on. Your biggest job is to keep people on time.
