It has been a very chilly day here in Salem, Oregon with temperatures around the upper 30s but we did have a nice rainbow a little while ago this afternoon.

Thought for the day today from Harry S. Truman: "It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit". It highlights the importance of teamwork, humility, and focusing on results rather than personal recognition, often used to inspire collaboration and selfless leadership.

This is such a touching podcast by Kent Rollins and his wife Shannon. I really loved what they said about chasing your passion and not letting fear get in the way.

This is today's convective storm outlook. Scattered severe thunderstorms remain possible this afternoon and evening across parts of southern Georgia into north and west-central Florida. Both damaging winds and a few tornadoes may occur.
Scattered severe thunderstorms remain possible this afternoon and evening across parts of southern Georgia into north and west-central Florida. Both damaging winds and a few tornadoes may occur. ...Southeast... A mature mid-level cyclone evident in water vapor and visible satellite imagery late this morning over MS/AL will continue to move quickly eastward across the central Gulf Coast States this afternoon, eventually reaching the Atlantic Coast later this evening. Latest surface analysis shows a weak low over northern MS and greater dewpoints present over the northeast Gulf, as strong low-level warm advection contributes to moisture transport ahead of an ongoing line of thunderstorms across the FL Panhandle and southwest GA. This pre-frontal band of convection is gradually strengthening late this morning, even with modest mid-level lapse rates and saturated profiles through much of the troposphere limiting updraft strength. Boundary-layer instability will gradually increase downstream across north FL/southern GA this afternoon as filtered daytime heating and some increase in low-level moisture occurs (surface dewpoints rising through the upper 50s to low/mid 60s). Peak MLCAPE may reach values of 500-1000 J/kg per consensus of 12Z guidance. With ample low-level and deep-layer shear associated with the mid-level cyclone present over the developing warm sector, organized convection mainly in the form of an eastward-moving QLCS is expected to persist through the afternoon/evening as this activity moves across north FL/southern GA. The northern extent of the severe risk into southern/central GA/SC remains uncertain due to weak instability forecast across these areas, but some guidance suggests additional strong convection may develop across these areas in closer proximity to cooler temperatures aloft with the upper trough.

In June 2007 I was a spectator at the Grandma's Marathon in Duluth, Minnesota and got this picture of Wesly Ngetich, who was the Men's winner. Unfortunately, In January 2008 he was killed in Kenya while on a peace mission during a fight between members of the Kipsigis and Maasai communities.

Have a fantastic Sunday and a great new week 🤗🥰
Good morning It's Sunday — a gentle reminder that not every day has to be rushed. Let today unfold slowly. Open the curtains, breathe in gratitude, and allow yourself to simply be. May your heart feel lighter, your mind feel clear, and your home be filled with quiet joy. Step into this day with grace - the week ahead will meet you refreshed and ready.

It looks like a squall line going on from northeast Texas into Arkansas. All in this area need to be weather aware and pay attention to storm warnings.
