There's very light snow falling in Norman right now, so I'm happy to say that OPTIMAL WEATHER is BACK

Looks like areas around Norman and S may jackpot in terms of snowfall with Z > 40 dBZ and ZDR around 0.5 dB suggesting massive amounts of aggregates

The long-track tornado that affected areas near Deatsville, AL this afternoon was likely intense (EF3+), with a persistent, deep TDS upwards of 22,000 feet and a prominent couplet peaking around 90 kt Vrot. Analogous events largely fall in the high-end EF3 to low-end EF4 range.

What was likely the first EF2+ tornado of 2023 impacted Selma, AL a few minutes ago, producing a debris plume up to 18,000 feet and a peak rotational velocity of 57 kt, which is quite in line with EF2-EF3 events #alwx

Gonna go out there and say this is NOT representative of the profs I know. There are INCREDIBLE educators at that are kind, encouraging, and student-focused. The philosophy below ain’t it.

Learned a lot about graduate students today from Howie! They “don’t like dynamics anymore” and “don’t like to be interrupted”. They “hate derivations” and are so “sensitive to speech” that he “can’t make puns anymore”. Ultimately, “students have changed. [He] hasn’t.”

Have you ever thought “what if my polarimetric radars were even more polarimetric?” Do you want to know what these pointy things are? My poster (S730, 5:00 MST Wed) will answer all of those and more!
