It takes 2 seconds to fact check this by looking at prices on Gas Buddy. The cheapest price in Florida is currently $2.39, or $.46 (24%) higher than claimed.

The proposed cuts to NOAA aren't just numbers on a budget—they're a direct threat to public safety. Protecting NOAA funding is about protecting your family, your community, and your future. Learn more about these dangerous cuts here: bit.ly/4iaKpJ2

What will happen is that by early September, RFK will declare vaccines cause autism, they will outlaw vaccines, children will get sick, and they will still develop autism. Not that this is entirely predictable or anything.

We're back at it again tomorrow, but this time, the tornado threat is minimal at best. The main story is going to be the heavy rainfall and flooding threat. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

Tornado watch coming for areas just to our west. We may or may not get included in this one, but the threat continues whether we do or not. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

Let me clarify--there is no need for panic. The likelihood that any one person is in harm's way of a tornado is exceptionally low. The point of all this is to make you prepared in the unlikely event that you are in danger. It's always best to have a plan. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

The conditions for tornadoes across our area will be greatest from around 3 PM-10 PM. Make sure you have multiple ways to receive warnings, and everywhere you go today, take a minute to look around for where you would seek shelter should a warning be issued. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

This is a good time to make a plan for where you would shelter in the event of a tornado. And as always, have multiple ways to get warnings. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

Mid to late afternoon we'll have to keep our guard up. The potential is there for any of these storms, especially those ahead of the line, to turn tornadic. You absolutely must remain weather aware today. Have multiple ways to receive warnings. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

Today is definitely a day to be weather aware. All parameters are present for a significant tornado outbreak today across the lower Ohio valley into the Ozarks. Storms will start to fire in the early afternoon and the threat continues into the overnight. Updates to follow. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

Here comes the line of storms--should be moving through here over the next hour. Widespread wind gusts to 60 MPH and isolated pockets of up to 1" diameter. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

As expected, we're beginning the transition to a mainly straight-line wind threat. Large hail up to 1" is also a possibility. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

#CarmelIN checking in with the warmest temperature of the year thus far at 79º. If we don't make it to 80º today, it'll likely be a while before we take another run at it.

This massive severe thunderstorm warning encompasses most of central Indiana, and runs through 8:30 PM. Hail to 1" diameter, and 70 MPH winds possible. A brief tornado can't be ruled out. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx

A tornado watch has been issued just to our west until 10 PM EDT (9 PM CDT). #INwx #ILwx

It's another severe weather awareness day. It looks like the primary mode of severe weather will be straight-line wind gusts, but there is enough spin in the atmosphere that we can't rule out a tornado or two. I'm putting our highest risk in the 7-9 PM timeframe. #CarmelIN #Indy #INwx
