The numbers have varied over the past 12-18 hours but it looks like this still has potential to be a decent rainmaker - but only for some areas (coastal zones, Eastern Shore).
Western neighborhoods may see <0.10" from invest #98L
One thing that's certain - waters will be rough ‼️
Small craft advisories start going up later this morning (first graphic)
High risk of rip currents from Virginia Beach southward. Moderate risk from N. Accomack Co northward.
Well.. wouldn't the position of the sun remain the same all year?
No! And that's thanks to the combination of the Earth's tilt and our non-circular orbit around the sun. #13newsnow#ScienceBehind#STEM#STEMeducation
So I didn't have a Wednesday Weather Word (a subsidiary of the #ScienceBehind franchise) yesterday. So here's one for you on this (not) Wednesday: #BlueMoon
Last time there was a #FullMoon on #Halloween visible across the world was 76 years ago in 1944! Most people should be able to see it, weather permitting
The next time we may see a spooky full moon is 2039 as a full moon occurs on Oct 31st every 19 years
Good morning! Someone sent me a photo to ID last week and I thought it'd be a perfect time to bring back Wednesday's Weather Word (a subsidiary of #ScienceBehind)
Hard to spell
Difficult to say (at least for me)
And sometimes even challenging to see.
This sight is usually seen better around sunrise or sunset, due to the scattering of light during those times. #STEMeducation#ScienceBehind
Anticrepuscular rays are often dimmer than their counterpart: crepuscular rays
The latter term comes from the Latin for "twilight". Crepuscular rays occur when sunlight streams through breaks in the clouds (some other objects can cause this, too) #ScienceBehind#STEMEducation
each step of your life really prepares you for the next.
i'm sitting here thinking about how #isaias affected us in VA/NC and how if i never moved to Iowa, i might not have gotten the level of tornado/severe weather experience to prepare me for tropical coverage.
as tough as it was out there, i have no choice but to be grateful 🙏🏾
believe in the process even if you don't know what you're believing in or what's on the other side.
you'll look back on everything with near tears in your eyes.
