This brings back some not so pleasant memories. I was unlucky enough to end up with both types of measles (Red & German) in the 1960s. As a matter of fact, one of my first memories, was being in the Hospital in Erwin with the measles. Not a great memory... spectrumlocalnews.com/mo/st-louis/...

A little more NOAA "Did you know?" Did you know that NOAA satellites don't just monitor the weather? Instruments on certain NOAA weather satellites can aid in search and rescue missions. In 2024, SARSAT was credited with helping save 411 lives. #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx #NOAA

You know... You can deny the climate is changing all you want but the fact is, that it is changing, and the US not being involved in this discussion is troubling to say the least. #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx #ClimateChange

Twenty-three years ago today, when I walked in the door of this place, the sign read “News 14 Carolina”… Definitely some changes since that day. Still hard to believe I’ve been playing chief meteorologist here for that long. Time it does fly by… #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx

Yeah... Just a little too close for comfort! A Southwest 737 crew had to abort their landing after another plane taxied across the runway in front of them. #SpectrumNews1

What's our return on the NWS. Information we get from the NWS costs about $4/person/year. A recent AMS survey found for every $1 spent on the NWS, we see a $73 return. How? Think of the lives & property saved by timely weather warnings issued by the NWS. That's a GREAT investment! #ncwx #NOAA #NWS

Well... Well... As of Sunday morning, the NOAA GOES-East satellite is still able to see snow on the ground in northeastern North Carolina. A testament to the amount of snow that area received this week. #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx #NOAA

"Reflecting" on the word of the day from my earlier post... (See what I did there...) That "albedo" really helps us to see snow on the ground via the visible satellite image. #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx

The word of the day... "Albedo" "Albedo is the fraction of light that a surface reflects." Fresh snow has the highest albedo rating. Hence the reason its so bright out there today. #SpectrumNews1 #ncwx #SCIENCE

Yet again, with another winter system. The NWS showing its worth before, during & after the storm with timely forecasts, watches, advisories and warnings, real-time doppler radar and weather updates, storm reports during and after the event. Remember, this costs you about $3/year. #ncwx #NWS #NOAA
