w/ story link: Breaking: FDA's March meeting to select flu shot strains for 2025-2026 season has been canceled per email sent to committee members. Drug cos need about 6 months leeway to make shots in time for fall vax campaigns. w/ story link: insights.citeline.com/pink-sheet/v... #healthpolicy

$4.5 Trillion in Tax Cuts and $1.5 Trillion in Spending cuts doesn't add up... Appears to be a $3.5 Trillion giveaway to the ultra wealthy while abandoning government services for a sizable chunk of Americans. Like I've said before, "eventually the milk will run dry."

Keep following the links for the rest of that day - The Shamrock Tornado, The Cheyenne and Mayfield, Oklahoma Tornadoes...

What was the provocative gesture? What was the provocative gesture!?!?

Hillary was right about this fucking puppet.

#weatherpicofday Since the idiocracy is flirting with the idea of grifting NOAA & NWS from The People of our country, here are damage shots from May 20, 2013 Moore OK Mar 24, 2023 Rolling Fork MS Dec 10, 2021 Dawson Springs KY Mar 2, 2012 Henryville IN

Working on this event for our next long format video... Can you guess the event? w/ Juston Drake

Ratner predicts the appointment of Kennedy, a vaccine skeptic, will impact vaccine availability and hesitancy: "It is much easier to scare people than to un-scare them," he says.

Want to go visit the national parks this year? Sorry. The reservation system is shut down, EMT personnel are gone, so don't get hurt or lost. No one can clean the bathrooms or cabins, so they'll be closed. Rangers are fired. www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti...

Blaming Ukraine for being brutally invaded by Russia. Putin is really getting his money’s worth.

#weatherpicofday A violent tornado passes over farmsteads near the community of Tennant, Iowa, during a significant outbreak on April 26, 2024. Juston Drake and I documented at least 9 twisters on this day. #IAwx

Quality time sharing good moments with old and new friends at the Nation Storm Chaser Summit last weekend in Overland Park, Kansas

#weatherpicofday #TornadoThursday Skinny tornado churns over soybean fields near Lake Crystal, Minnesota, on June 29, 2005. Prior to this photo, I passed @ReedTimmerUSA on the ground after the twister had passed over him. #MNwx

Sweet video! Also, while he narrates it. I'm hearing a Sam Elliot/Pecos Hank hybrid. Stuff of legends!

The energy in this video is immaculate. 💪🌪️

Appropriate that Super Bowl LIX is in New Orleans because KLIX is the identifier of NWS New Orleans

#SupercellSaturday It's soooo difficult to choose... these might be my 4 favorite supercells just for structure. I don't know, but these are definitely in my TOP 10.

In my years of covering internet culture I’ve always tried to impress upon people that social media algorithms + audiences actively incentivize and reward behavior and people that are almost comically evil and stupid. Anyways now that culture is running the country

Basically everyone in Western North Carolina has the flu.

Cats always know what the fuck is up I swear.

Nebraska City storm that produced baseball sized hail that evening attached here. Driving with my friend to his brother's 8 man high school football game. The night after the ~hour long Hickman tornado that I couldn't chase as my Saturn failed me for good. Air felt a lot like May 4th, 2003.

Sad to hear I'm not allowed to see another Oklahoma Tornado again. Here's to the old times... #Oklahoma #OKwx

#weatherpicofday Megawedge tornado over Wayne, Nebraska, during a small outbreak on October 4, 2013. The following day, @JustonStrmRider and I performed a damage survey and found the maximum width to be 1.9 to 2.1 miles in diameter near the time of this photo. #newx

Are the next 4 years really going to be logging on everyday to sentences like "a 19 year old doge intern called Big Balls has your social security number" because I'm already at capacity for this sort of thing

Thanks, Simon, for sharing this video! Two of my students studied radar data from this outbreak, so it was nice to share with them the chasers’ view! (I was chasing that glorified ramen noodle near South Haven, KS that day.)

Musk was going to be investigated and probably screwed for his many illegal ongoings if Kamala won. Once he figured that out he was all in on Trump. Only in America.

If you want to understand Gen Z, then you should understand we have grown up in a world where we have only *ever* seen things get materially worse. With the ever looming yet ignored threat of impending climate disaster on the horizon. Not an experience which enamours you to the way things are.

Dude calculated well that he’s so rich nothing can happen to him. Excellent job here so far @democrats.org

Checkout our NEW video: Coleridge, Nebraska Tornadoes - June 17, 2014 Tornado #2 was likely the most intense twister we've ever documented! #NEwx w/ Juston Drake And Happy #GroundhogDay youtu.be/lS3eHElMy3Q?...

Our favorite tornado chase to date! 8 twisters, including long-lived 'Tornado #2', which caused possibly the most incredible ground scouring we've seen!
