I had to get my thoughts out on the NCAR news, and 1200 words is a bit over the character limit here.. So I took my first shot at writing on Substack about how terrible this decision is. Give it a read/share if you have a moment, and write your representatives!

I'm grateful to @ametsoc.org for the travel support they just awarded me for their Science Policy Colloquium in DC this June!

I look forward to meeting policy leaders and determining how I, as an early-career scientist during the next administration, might help revive our government's support.

Perhaps further evidence here in support of
@sean-ernst-wx.bsky.social's work on the interpretation of SPC risk categories? (journals.ametsoc.org/view/journal...)

Either way I hope everyone across the Southeast stays safe this weekend!

Do you want to do something about the chaos happening at the federal level? Have you considered calling but are unsure what to say? Have you never called and find it intimidating? I'm going to write a short HOW-TO to help! The more of us that call, the more effect we have! A short thread! 1/

Now that I’ve reflected on my time at #AMS2025, it’s safe to say it was the best one yet!

From my first annual meeting talk, to chairing a session before hundreds, and making so many new connections, it’s not something I thought possible a few years ago. Can’t wait to see everyone again next year!
