What the heck is going on with all the meteors this week?!?! Why is no one talking about this?
BREAKING: We can confirm that a meteor exploded over Houston just before 4:40 p.m. Central time. The GOES East geostationary lightning mapper picked up the infrared flash that accompanied the explosion. A boom was heard across the northern/northwestern Houston metro. There are unconfirmed reports of a meteorite crashing through a woman's home. The American Meteor Society has reviewed dozens of eyewitness reports, and calculated the most likely path of the meteor. It probably entered the atmosphere somewhere near Magnolia and continued descending toward Monroe, at some point exploding in the process. The Brenham, Texas fire department was dispatched to reports of a possible explosion near Highway 50 at Wiedeville Rd. Units on scene did not find evidence of an explosion.

My colleagues have taught me to never trust a warm front. Here is an excellent example as to why. @SamRobertsWX @JeffTanchak @ErikaPaigeWX

Can confirm. It’s been FRIGID in Ohio. 🥶 #ohwx
Here’s a map you don’t see often: the place with the coldest temperature anomaly vs. average in the northern hemisphere over the last 5 days is….. Ohio There are caveats to keep in mind, like different climatological variance meaning a -24F anomaly in Ohio isn’t as unusual as a -24F anomaly in Florida or Siberia would be… but still a noteworthy stat

This was VERY TRUE in Cleveland yesterday.
Seasonal depression seems fake until it’s above 30° and sunny in February and it feels like a choir of angels is singing as you walk up to the gates of heaven

Not sure why our Madison camera is facing the sky, but I keep waiting for "The Simpsons" to come out behind the clouds. #ohwx

Well, the pressure graphic is now out of date. At 897 mb, #Milton is now the FIFTH strongest hurricane on record on the Atlantic basin!
At 180 mph and 905 mb currently, and with a forecast of 185 mph later tonight, Hurricane #Milton is expected to become one of the strongest hurricanes ever in the Atlantic basin (which includes the Gulf of Mexico).

What a beautiful "tropical sky" sunrise across Northeast Ohio to start this weekend. Helene merged with an upper-level low that will continue to keep us humid with occasional showers throughout the weekend. #sunrise #ohwx
