Signs that things are going okay career-wise: ❌ Get a million-dollar grant ❌ Win teaching awards ✅ have a former and current AMS President send me emails with me as a giant head I enjoyed participating in the @ametsoc.org Washington Forum and Community Meeting this morning!

I'm often asked "you study tropical meteorology... why tf do you live in North Dakota?" I will now show this video and falsely tell them this is Saharan dust

Olympic hockey was fun today, but it's almost time for my last game of the Grand Forks Park District beer league. I'm going for the Jake Carstens Hat Trick against the White team... 3 goals across the full 16 game season. (This sport is hard)

I have no idea what the rest of 2026 is going to throw, but I have 20+ of the best in the game to ride it with. Love y'all @ametsoc.org @amsearlycareer.bsky.social 💙💚 #AMS2026

If you're still at #AMS2026, come hang out with me this afternoon at Poster 979. It's actually the first time I've shared my own tropical cyclone research in over a year and a half, so I'd love to bounce ideas off of anyone interested. 🌀

Almost filled out my Infinity Gauntlet. Thanks to all who attended the Early Career Conference and Reception at #AMS2026! With it in the books, I'm thrilled to officially take over as Chair of @amsearlycareer.bsky.social.

Day 2 of the Early Career Conference at #AMS2026! Excited to have UND student Sam Johnson with us today helping out. Say hi to him in Room 350D and Thank a Student Assistant Today.

The official debut of my research group was tonight at #AMS2026! Sooooooo proud of Sydney, Kyle, and Payton, as well as our other students repping North Dakota this week. Stay tuned for much more from my Northern Plains Sickos at the Tropical Conference in March 👀

Showtime! #AMS2026 attendees: come by the Conference for Early Career Professionals today and tomorrow in Room 350D! Our reception is also open to all, taking place from 8:30-10:30PM tonight in the Hilton Lanier Grand Ballroom A.

See you soon, #AMS2026! Come by the Early Career Conference Sunday-Monday, check out my students' posters, then stick around long enough to heckle me when it's my turn to present.

Blackboard (or Zoom... or WiFi as a whole) outages on the first full day of class A tale as old as time

A modest milestone for career academics, but I'll take any boost I can get!

Emotional support chicken nuggets for your timeline for absolutely no reason at all

Getting reallllllllllly tired of my profession being painted as the bad guy when we're all just a bunch of nerds who want you to be safe from tornadoes.

North Dakota is undefeated. 8" of snow Tuesday, vivid sundog this morning, wind chills in the -30s by the time I leave tonight's hockey game.

Sincere shoutout to @samsayshello.bsky.social for roaming the department parking lot and scraping snow/ice from others' cars. Literally the only way it could be more Upper Midwest is to do so with a Busch Light in hand.

I have many thoughts, but what jumps out the most right now is the cruelty. Have dozens of people come to your meeting, basically force them to grovel after months of anxiety, then vote nearly unanimously against them anyways. Sending love to the Huskers. nebraskapublicmedia.org/en/news/news...
