We are looking at some high King Tides events today and tomorrow according to the @nws.noaa.gov Bay Area office. If you are near the coast, stay safe and follow closure notices.

Avoid driving through flooded roadways, as water depth may be difficult to judge. Mountain travelers should be prepared for chain controls, reduced visibility, and possible road closures. Consider delaying non-essential travel during peak impacts.

Some good news to end the year on. The Supreme Court today blocked Trump from sending the National Guard into the Chicago area — finally setting a limit to Trump’s executive power. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/finally-the-supreme-court-stops-trump

Another successful trip to the @agu.org Fall Meeting! Everybody gave great presentations and we got to celebrate our newly minted PhD, Dr. Ann Scheliga, as a group, with dinner, beignets, and live jazz music ! 🎶

See you next year in SF! 🌉

After a little break, back to cranking on data and science and excited to start Year 4 (!!!!) of Fig-A-Day! Today's figure brought to you by a Colorado writing retreat and a negroni that finally motivated me to tackle some tricky stats coding. #figaday 4.001/n #year4

At #AGU25 ! I'm not a research scientist, I'm just here because my lovely fiance, Dr. @silva-telmatology.bsky.social, is presenting some posters and I tagged along. This has been an AMAZING experience as basically a tourist visiting the foreign world of Geophysics and related stuff!

Hello Science BlueSky!!

I have finally migrated over from Twitter and am happy to announce that I am at #AGU25 and that my first poster presentation as a Dr. went well and that I will be presenting again tomorrow.

Please come by and say "Hi!" if you get a chance!
