Fam, I have some good personal news to share. Saturday night I was awarded a Lone Star Emmy for one of my weathercasts during the Christmas week tornadoes we had last year. My only priority whenever I get in front of the camera is serving you…1/3

Alrighty, ready to see something really cool? (and maybe a little nauseating)

From a crewmember on yesterday's Teal 74 mission into now-Category 5 Hurricane #Melissa. As clear of an eye as you will see in the Atlantic basin.

This rain-wrapped tornado southeast of Houston looked like a MONSTER! Neill Long took this photo from his backyard a little after 1:40PM in League City’s Coastal Point subdivision north of 146 and 646. (1/2)

NEW: Here is the preliminary reporting from the National Weather Service on the 5 tornado touchdowns yesterday. This was a classic Southeast Texas tornado day where most of the tornadoes were EF-0 or EF-1 strength and not on the ground for very long.

Astronomical winter begins Saturday, but you can kiss any semblance of "winter" weather goodbye between Christmas and New Year's if our signals are correct. North America is expected to get flooded with milder Pacific air, sending temps in northern Canada up to 50 degrees warmer than normal! 1/2

With a temperature outlook like this for the week of Christmas, most Americans will not have a #whiteChristmas away from the Great Lakes and the mountainous regions of the West. Sorry, kids, no snow in #Houston. Again. (But there was that one time in 2004!) #uswx #wx
