Major shoutout to local National Weather Service offices who have issued literally hundreds and hundreds of tornado / severe thunderstorm / flood warnings in just the past 36 hours alone. Most offices are doing this amid staff shortages.

SPC / WPC teams doing amazing work, too.

Scientists matter.

That's an insane amount of warnings!
From 12 UTC on Tuesday, April 2 to 12 UTC on Wednesday, April 3, NWS Forecast Offices have issued 768 severe thunderstorm, tornado, and flash flood warnings

This is next highest total number of SVR+TOR+FF for an April calendar date since the April 26-27, 2011 Super Outbreak

It's beautiful!
There is just raging lake effect going on off of Lakes Erie and Ontario. KBUF is optimally sited to watch strings of mesocyclones approaching the city. I'm sure the same is going on off of Lake Ontario if it weren't for the radar elevation.

I’ve been working on a new space weather forecasting concept in trying to tell forecasts in as simple as possible formats. I thought about the local on the 8s path and then got kinda encapsulated into the editing style. Whoops here’s a Space on the 8s test run.

Okay, back to the beauty of our planet. Here's Volcano de Fuego (Guatemala) erupting just after sunset, shot from camp atop the neighboring Acatenango volcano.
