Steve Hamilton (Meteorologist)
@weatherbuff.bsky.social
AMS/NWA Certified Meteorologist in Denver, CO USA. I just "do the weather" via AM/FM/HD Radio, Internet and Podcasts. Questions, input, interaction and respectful discussion all welcome. Hobbies: History, Aviation, Cooking, Nature and, um... Weather.
I am only half-way through Eagle Days. The pace is slow due to very careful study. In the USA, all we learn in school is how "Britain won the air battle". Eagle Days shows you the other side of the story... and it's well worth your time! ⭐@spitfirefilly.bsky.social

I'm only 15 pages in, and I'm hooked! Eagle Days goes way deeper than just dogfights and aircraft. It presents the struggle in a whole new light. Get yourself a copy, because you can't borrow mine! 😊 Thanks @spitfirefilly.bsky.social

Well, it's finally here in Colorado! I'm cleaning my reading glasses, and looking forward to spending a long time with Eagle Days, by Dr. Victoria Taylor. I suppose the timing is apt, since 85 years ago the Battle of Britain was in its early stages. This is gonna be good! @spitfirefilly.bsky.social

I've been following Effin' Birds for quite some time. Admittedly, my vocabulary contains a fair amount of profanity, but I don't use it in public, or among strangers, nor around kids. The plethora of hilarious comments by "birds" will probably make you chuckle. 🤣

I try to be very accurate with my weather forecasts across the country. Here's my secret: The cat kneading her claws into my belly keeps me alert. 😅 #weather #NOAA #NWS

I had to create an account on the "evil platform that starts with an X", because I'll need to do some marketing. I only talk about weather: @Meteorology10 Follow if you like. I promise no politics. Just science. Happy to answer questions too.

I don't work for The Weather Channel, but this seems to be fairly accurate.

Just so you know, ALL of us local meteorologists depend on this information to keep you safe from tornadoes, hurricanes, blizzards, floods and fire. All your weather apps depend on these people too. Endangering the American people isn't exactly 'good optics' is it?

I pre-ordered my copy of Eagle Days a few weeks ago. I'm looking forward to spending the summer with this book. Check out Dr. Victoria Taylor's video. If you're a WW2 aviation enthusiast... Eagle Days might be something to consider adding to your library. @spitfirefilly.bsky.social
How are we already eight weeks away from #EagleDays coming out?! I am looking SO very forward to sharing its findings with you very soon! Available to pre-order from all good bookshops and retailers as a hardback, eBook & on Audible 📖💻🎧

This is a small neighborly service I do for the residents of Elbert County, Colorado. The county is just southeast of Denver, with an interesting population of folks who consider it a Denver suburb, while others maintain it's a rural location. Frankly, I prefer the latter. #cowx

For those of you (us) who have been spending time exploring the past, here's a Spitfire to brighten your day. I find studying WW2 aircraft to be a wonderful diversion from, shall we say, current affairs. (Image from DeviantArt.) @spitfirefilly.bsky.social

The name of this B-29 Super Fortress is the "Enola Gay". The pilot, Colonel Paul Tibbets Jr., named the plane after his mother: Enola Gay Tibbets. (This country is being run by a couple of 2nd grade bullies.)

I'm almost done with this book on The Battle of Gettysburg. Greatly looking forward to the next thing on my reading schedule, from Dr. Victoria Taylor! If you're a student of WW2, you'll want to grab a copy. @spitfirefilly.bsky.social
