WxOrNotBG Tweets of the Week

Twitter is a meteorologist’s best friend and worst enemy. Meteorologists send out hundreds of tweets per day, and it is such a useful tool for dispensing information. Many times, though, hype will begin and spread like fire on Twitter. Other times, it saves someone’s life. Therefore, Twitter sees the best and worst out of meteorologists every week, and it gets really fascinating to watch. These are the 10 best Tweets I found from this past week!

#10 Taylor Trogdon

A mistake many make. Very good example of this issue.

#9 U.S. Tornadoes

This. Is. Awesome.

#8 Mallory Schnell

Our own Mallory Schnell comes in here at number 8 with an awesome view of the fog in Louisville on Sunday morning!

#7 Ian Livingston

Mammatus clouds are awesome.

#6 Ryan Maue

This was an awesome thunderstorm complex, and I wrote about it here.

#5 D☈D

WKU Storm Chasers are having awesome success out in the plains, and this was so cool to see.

#4 Jon Stone

🌪🌪🌪🌪🌪

#3 Quincy Vagell 

This is incredible. Absolutely incredible. You can see the corkscrew that the updraft is taking, indicating the rotation of the updraft, and you can see the rainshaft in the background, indicating the organization of the storm. So, so, so cool.

#2 D☈D

This storm was awesome, and was a monster to look at. It cycled in close proximity to the same spot for quite sometime on Saturday.

#1 WKU Storm Chasers

I am so excited and proud of my peers for their success. WKU is baller.
