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 […]

Six Years ago: An Incredible Low Pressure System

Six years ago yesterday/today: an incredible mid-latitude cyclone developed across the central portion of the United States and deepened as it moved northward into the northern Plains. This low pressure system is honestly one of the more incredible meteorological anomalies that I have ever seen, as it was an absolutely beautiful example of the foundations […]

11 Years Ago Yesterday: Hurricane Wilma and the Streak

The talk of the sports world recently has been streaks. Tonight, the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians match up in the World Series, and these two teams have been apart of two of the more absurd streaks in sports history.

A former tropical wave who has been watched closely and been forecast to develop into a Hurricane in the Caribbean, Matthew finally closed off his surface circulation this morning. During his tropical wave days, Matthew took his time developing, but even yesterday (without a closed […]

The Week in Tropical Weather

I have come to the conclusion that I post way too much about the tropics. I am no expert in tropical meteorology, I wouldn’t even call myself an amateur. Tropical Meteorology is a much different animal than mid-latitude meteorology, and as such, it is difficult for me to apply my knowledge of mid-latitude meteorology to […]

Holy Cow Bowling Green Weather Looks Nice

Sixth Anniversary of Infamous Tornado Outbreak was Saturday

On Saturday (June 17th), the sixth anniversary of the 2010 Northern Plains tornado outbreak occurred. This was a fairly wild tornado outbreak, as it produced well over 50 tornadoes across North Dakota, Minnesota and western Wisconsin. The system was very dynamic in nature, which may be surprising because of the time of year, but it […]

Cloud’s Weather News of the Day

Did you all notice what was outside? Did you see them? They were towers of condensation, and some becoming thunderstorms, and dropping rain. That is right. They were clouds. I know, those are odd, odd things considering we saw maybe three of them in total last week. Today, they rose up with weak or strong updrafts […]
