I guess Im one of the lame ones who doesn't like using explosive adjectives for every tornado, especially when they're in their very early stages of development. "Hey, we've got a developing tornado here that looks to be strengthening!" 10 seconds later.. "Welp, it appears its already gone." is just fine. IDK. Ive always valued accuracy over marketing.

Pretty ridiculous thermodynamic environment in proximity to intense tornado near Appleton, WI This RAP sounding is likely close to reality given pre-storm observed 82/80 in Appleton, and messy convective mode given deep moist/unstable layer.

We are saddened and heartbroken to share the news of the passing of Kyle Busch, a two-time Cup champion and one of our sport's greatest and fiercest drivers. He was 41 years old. We extend our deepest condolences to the Busch family, Richard Childress Racing and the entire motorsports community.

The disrespect of women in this community is indeed sad. Over the years, when Chelsea and I are sitting somewhere, there have been dozens of chasers (men) who come up to say hi to me and completely ignore her, like blatantly. Noone is asking for a red carpet welcome, but some of you cant even be bothered to simply smile and say hi back. Its pathetic. Its been bugging me for a couple years but Ive kept my mouth shut until now. If this is who you are as a person, dont even bother saying hi to me.

PSA: no one owns storm chasing. Not locals, not the NWS, not SPC, not the government local or state or federal, not live streamers, not professional storm chasers. Everyone has a right to chase, record, chase, and enjoy their storm. What they do with their content/decision to chase or not chase is up to them as they see fit and not a single sole has the right to tell them what they can/cannot due (aside from mutually agreed contracts between parties.) This BS of who can chase and who can give away their media for free is so freaking tiresome. If you choose to chase as your career, you signed up for it to be hard and get harder in the future. You do not get special privilege. You do not have the right to tell others what to do. Quit acting like a bunch of children and just do your thing. The best content chasers will find a way to rise above the rest, not complain about it on Twitter. Lock in.

Just realized the best part of having an autobid is that we don’t need a relative going on tv to explain why we deserve to be in over a 30-win @MiamiRedHawks
