1/3🧵: High Winds Make a River. #storm #SableIslandwx
Most of #SableIsland’s south beach was flooded during the November 4th storm. Yesterday a strong northwesterly gusting to 40 kts pushed the floodwater eastward to a point where the water cut through the berm & began draining back into the ocean…

1/2🧵: Waves in the Dark. 🐡
Yesterday, at 6:30 pm, Rose and I walked out to the north beach, with just enough remaining light to see the waves. It had been a windy and cool day, southwesterly gusting to 36 kts and a max temperature of 13.9°C.

Trump’s DOJ just defied a Supreme Court order to return Kilmar Abrego Garcia—wrongfully deported, now missing in El Salvador. This isn’t a delay. It’s open defiance. If the Court backs down, the rule of law dies with him. This is the moment. Act—or surrender democracy.

Cuts to the NWS will have an impact in our region.
Weather balloons provide very important data for weather forecasting models (including the Canadian & European models) and provide important insights during fall, winter and spring storms here in the northeast.

Lack of staff is leading to the loss of even more balloon observations. I look at hundreds of these data points daily for my job. Both observed & model derived. These balloon observations can be critical in accurate severe thunderstorm forecasts & watch issuance. They improve model accuracy as well.
