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 Tim Ballisty

99L, otherwise known as “Hermine”.

#9 Matt Reagan

The jokes surrounding Hurricane Newton in the eastern Pacific last evening were very good.

That was a very strong signature for a tropical system. 

#7 Kristin

This is one of the best jokes I have ever seen.

#6 Ryan Maue

Hurricane Madeline and Lester were two incredible storms across the central and eastern Pacific last week.

Hermine intensified rapidly on Friday, and was the move prevalent weather event last week.
