Interesting boundary ingestion up in SK this evening.
I read one of #GaryEnglandβs books in high school. His story of the capriciousness of TV news and program directors and the seemingly constant threat of being fired for not having the right βlookβ was eye opening. It pushed me away from TV weather and toward my current career. Rest in power.
Breaking News: Reps Flood (R-NE) and Sorensen (D-IL) to introduce legislation to classify NWS employees as public safety employees like air traffic controllers and FBI agents.

The NWS is one of (often polled as the # 1) the most popular agencies in the entire government. Also, it costs a few bucks per taxpayer to fund a year.
The benefit people get out of it vs cost is insanely good. And gutting it is...extremely dangerous
Unlike many of his EOs, this one is carefully written to SOUND like a good idea, unless you look at it carefully in context of who. What it really is is taking away essential medications, silencing science, and adding quackery treatments
Elon Musk now has access to your Social Security number. The worldβs richest man has gained access to the confidential personal information of every taxpayer in the United States.
This is not normal. Likely illegal. They are working fast to unravel our republic.
The Trump administration has placed two top security chiefs at the U.S. Agency for International Development on leave after they resisted turning over classified material in restricted areas to Elon Muskβs staffers. America, please stand with usβwe are fighting to defend this country!

Wow. This is the Bad Place.
A circle on a white background. The border of the circle is concentric rings of the colors of a rainbow. The circle is filled with a transsexual flag (horizontal bars of light blue, light pink, white, light pink, and light blue). Iβm front of the flag are the words βtrans ppl existing does nothing negative to your lifeβ.
Full. Stop. See also: Oppressing someone else doesnβt remove the boot from your neck.
Two of my current & former students were told today that their signed offers, one at a southwest NWS office (for which his experience with fire weather was key to his hiring) and another at the NWS-WDTD, were rescinded. Both posts are key to public safety, which the fΓͺted hiring freeze was to avoid.
METEOROLOGIST Sam Kuffel fired by CBS 58. Shameful. I encourage anyone in the Milwaukee area to find another source for your news. www.jsonline.com/story/news/p...
This happened only days after Allen Media fired all of their meteorologists in a bid to save money.

Happy New Year! Letβs get through this together.
A little more than a decade ago I started following NFL. Gives me something to do during the winter and a way to connect socially with colleagues. #Vikings My first love has always been baseball. #Cubs #Twins
