I’m honored that our recent JAMES publication was selected as an @eos.org @agu.org Research Spotlight. We show how tropical high-impact Wx events evolve under future atmospheric conditions. I'm excited to continue this work with my research group at @tamuartsci.bsky.social, ATMO Department.

In honor of Dr. Jenni Evans's legacy in tropical meteorology, I warmly welcome your participation in the upcoming session @ametsoc.org's 37th Conf. on Hurricanes & Tropical Meteorology: "From Tropics to Extratropics: Exploring Cyclone Dynamics in Current & Future Climates in Memory of Jenni Evans" 🧵
Last week, I had the absolute pleasure of visiting the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics (UTIG) & learning about the amazing work the faculty & students are doing — especially the incredible research coming out of Danielle Touma's group! You can find my talk on YouTube👉 lnkd.in/gTcV3TmB
🚨 New Study Alert! Our study with @zmoon92.bsky.social & @edougherty.bsky.social offers new insights into how African Easterly Waves (AEWs), the seeds of Atlantic hurricanes 🌀, are being shaped by a warmer, moister climate. doi.org/10.1029/2025...
doi.orgMeet the Tropical Systems Group @tamuatmo.bsky.social: featuring Dr. Kwesi Quagraine, Stephanie Ortiz Rosario, and Dr. @zmoon92.bsky.social ! We study the weather and climate of the tropics — from ⛈️to TCs 🌀— using km-scale models, obs, & a passion for science comms! sites.google.com/tamu.edu/nun...
The 2025 Atlantic hurricane season started but have you ever wondered how hurricane seeds form? Read about it 👇 Thanks to @dinahvp.bsky.social @usatoday.com for the article! www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...
🔊In collaboration with @ncar-ucar.bsky.social, NCAR, the Mesoamerica Affinity Group (MAAG) was created to promote research & collaborations in Earth science across Mesoamerica & the Caribbean. Want to learn more? When: May 30th @ 2pm ET Where: Zoom, tinyurl.com/CaribForClim...
My recent feature with @tamu.bsky.social: We discuss how ongoing research, including my own, is helping to better understand and anticipate high-impact tropical weather. Read more here👇🌀⛈️ @tamuatmo.bsky.social @tamuartsci.bsky.social
TAMU Atmospheric SciencesA recent CBS News article reports that the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season is expected to be 125% more active than average. Texas A&M Atmopsheric Sciences Assistant Professor Dr. Kelly Núñez Ocasio breaks down the forces shaping the season—and what forecasts are missing. tx.ag/2025HurricaneSeason
We will be holding a memorial celebration for Prof. Jenni Evans this coming Friday (4/11) at 5:00 PM in 112 Walker Building @pennstateuniv.bsky.social to honor her life. If you would like to give a speech, reach out to me @ knunez.ocasio@tamu.edu or Guido Cervone (guc18@psu.edu). @ametsoc.org
Dr. Kelly Núñez OcasioIt 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

Today! #AGU24
Dr. Kelly Núñez Ocasio📢#AGU24: Interested in how the warming climate will affect weather over Africa & the Atlantic? Stop by my talk on Monday! @edougherty.bsky.social & I have join forces & are pioneering the use of MPAS (next gen weather & climate model) @ km-scales to simulate future climate projections! ⛈️
