It has been a while, but I am looking forward to starting this back up! Twitter is a meteorologist’s best friend and worst enemy. Many times, 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!

SPC just issued a Day 3 outlook on the afternoon shift. Love to see this agency no longer bound by “update times” 👏👏 #proudemployee

Cyclone Winston makes this list a ton of times. One of the more beautiful storms in a good while.

Hahahaha, Cyclone Winston again. In all seriousness, this wasn’t a good storm for Fiji, so keep them in your thoughts and prayers.
