Fortunately well out to sea, but check out #Dexter & its resurrection as a powerful #extratropical cyclone over the North Atlantic. Perfect case for a meteorological deep dive: Favorable trough interaction led to "sting jet" formation & #hurricane force winds as cyclone phases w/ shortwave. 🌀 🦂
Attention hurricane enthusiasts, connoisseurs, experts: the Atlantic season is entering the active months (Aug-Sep-Oct) so what better time to remind you of this Starter Pack so you can get reliable information and insights! go.bsky.app/88mXQKD
Ready for Day 3, here with @jakecarstens.bsky.social ! Excited for a lot of the talks today at #AMS52BC #AMS21Meso
It is with deep sadness that I share the passing of my Ph.D. advisor, Jenni Evans. She was an esteemed scientific leader in tropical meteorology & computational science. She shared great strength & inspiration to follow my dreams. @ametsoc.org @pennstateuniv.bsky.social shorturl.at/BrzAU

Very happy to hear this but “sent in error” is such bullshit. The courts and merit protection boards just pwned you, you fascist dipshits.
Cole HoodAn end of this saga for me (for now?), however there are still NOAA employees without their jobs back. I am extremely grateful to have mine back.

The AMS is temporarily opening its career services to all who need them, regardless of membership status, and offering dues waivers and meeting registration fee reductions for those impacted by job loss due to changes in the government. Read more: bit.ly/4gRiHAk
This is how you support your scientific community, @ametsoc.org. Excellent work! 🧪🌊 Note to other professional societies. Speak out, yes. But, words are not enough in these times. Help your members, and that includes those in underrepresented groups.
Are you an undergraduate student in meteorology, hydrology, geography, biology, geoscience, or engineering? Want to do research on the intersection of your discipline w/urban areas? Apply to REMUS REU at UNC Charlotte! Deadline Feb 15. Lots more info at: geoearth.charlotte.edu/ges-reu-prog...
🌀Our TCBL lab🌀is admitting a M.S. (or Ph.D.) student to study boundary layer winds and tornadoes of landfalling hurricanes from Fall 2025. Students with a strong passion for hurricane science and a strong background of programming/physics are particularly encouraged to apply. Welcome to spread out!
Come and do a PhD in beautiful St Andrews! I am looking for a PhD student to work on an Iapetus DTP-funded project, 'Understanding pathways to extreme heat using large ensembles', with co-supervision from @drmichaelbyrne.bsky.social, Chris Taylor and Nick Dunstone. iapetus2.ac.uk/studentships...
Please give @jakecarstens.bsky.social a Bluesky welcome and a follow! He's a recent FSU grad (2022) and current Assistant Professor at UND... also now a part of my ever-expanding hurricane guru Starter Pack: go.bsky.app/88mXQKD!
