Loved joining Gabe & Jesse for @BrickRoadCoffee’s 5th Annual Trunk or Treat & Queer Art Market in Tempe tonight. Even stopped by the @azld12dems tent to vote for my favorite candy. Proud to support our LGBTQ+ community & to encourage everyone to vote in the real election too!

Another @VoteNewDems endorsed candidate takes the lead in Arizona! Chaired by @gregstantonaz, New Dems' PAC could have a great night in Arizona if we keep up the momentum. Our path to the majority runs right through Arizona!

The past 24 hours over the Desert Southwest have been concerning from an NWS warning issuance standpoint. We’ve had: • warnings issued based on contaminated data • a TOR for a left split (spinning the “wrong” way) • several delayed/missed events (both tornadoes and giant hail) • polygons that miss the actual circulation • ongoing debris signatures that are missed I’m pro-expertise and pro-NWS — when they win, we all win. But critiquing poor performance scientifically is, at times, important. It’s tough to justify keeping 122 offices staffed for warning operations when consistency and quality are obvious problems. The case for centralized warning operations is getting stronger, which is both good and bad. I’m working on a longer piece and am not going to prematurely release it before I make sure every detail is presented fairly and completely — but there is a deeper conversation that needs to be had. If anyone has any specific examples (both from this event or otherwise) that you feel I should look into, DM me.

Proud to earn @stonewalldems51's endorsement for re-election! As a VP for the org, I’ve worked to help build LGBTQ+ political power in DC and the Dem Party. As Commissioner, I'll keep fighting to make true equality a reality for all who call DC home. MORE: bradhoward.us/news/08c2mzt2g…
