They are really planning to go through with these cuts at Nebraska, despite recommendations not to. Unbelievable.
If you want to hire highly qualified, very successful earth and atmospheric sciences faculty in teaching and research, quite a few are probably looking for jobs for next year.

So many incredible games tonight (and the last few weeks). Please remember this when the NBA Cup propagandists try to tell you that Cup games are more intense than other early regular-season games.
Holy shit that Heat-Cavs finish.

I worked at NWS Cleveland in the mid '90s when it had become a central hub for Great Lakes forecasting as part of an organized effort by NOAA and the shipping community to improve forecasting for the lakes after the Edmund Fitzgerald. Some great NWS work especially at Cleveland made it a success.
In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.
The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.
The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.
Why?
It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Is this supposed to be a great revelation?
NEW: President Trump's pardon of his alleged 2020 co-conspirators was less about shielding them from past crimes, his adversaries say, than about signaling to others that he has their back if he needs them again in 2026 or 2028.

IMO, the proposed bill to end the shutdown to me puts NOAA in a state of limbo til Jan. 30 with little hope for clarity even then. I breakdown my admittedly pessimistic interpretation of the situation and recap the competing admin and Congressional visions for NOAA: https://tinyurl.com/49dhaf56

An intense, nearly stationary lake-effect snow band sets up off southern Lake Huron overnight and some models (like the Canadian HRDPS) give London perhaps 30+ cm by late Tuesday morning. Given so many leaves still on trees this could be a major problem. Keeping an eye on this! #ONstorm #LdnOnt
