I don’t wanna be a 2 app person. I need more people over here, and like big name people. Twitter is still where all news breaks and it’s annoying

A problem I’ve found over here is id have no idea about the Luka trade until getting an ESPN push notification… Bluesky doesn’t disseminate breaking news as quickly as Twitter unfortunately. I had a hard time finding info on the plane crash yesterday. They need to improve that

It’s so funny to see Alex Jones worshipping the billionaire elite that are literally in government now after being a so called truth teller against the “establishment” for 20 years lol just going wherever the money takes him

Unelected figures controlling entire swaths of government for personal benefit and enrichment sounds not good. Follow along for more expert analysis

Obviously wouldn’t apply to locals or anything. And it wouldn’t even be enforced the day of. But it could be a record kept in an app to posthumously look at the data to determine if chasing behavior was bad/illegal

I hear they have tornadoes

That’s true… I just wish we had a way to regulate. Through an app like the FAA I guess? Geolocated registry of licensed chasers. FAA isn’t out enforcing the flight of every drone but it’s on an honor system and the threat of being caught keeps craziness at bay. Chasing has gotten awful with traffic

hell yeah

Certainly sounds possible. Exclude roadway travel in a wide area around a tornado and just flash a license to get closer. This would be the only feasible way to “regulate” it

I mean this is true. It probably needs some sort of half measure to reduce the backroad looky-loos on big days. But there’s no decent way to regulate it anymore than you can regulate any other public-space available recreation… hunting requires a license but its a more obvious thing to spot

Also, Twisters probably didn’t help the cause

A bill to regulate storm chasing in Oklahoma is interesting. Would’ve been nice to have less insane behavior from chasers the last few years to have a hand on the wheel for this?
Idk how this is enforced, what it means or anything tbh but something like this was coming with how congested things are

Man if housing was expensive before, just wait til this hits and all petroleum based products (literally everything ever made) get a 25% tariff smacked onto them. Not to mention labor, and other materials. We’re so screwed… these people are playing chicken with the entire world economy

True! As long as I can nowcast on here and get reasonably timed photos and see what others are seeing then it’s worth the jump. Looks to be more over here just based on the replies I’m getting

Kinda true

Starting to see the blue sky through the clouds (I will end it all now)

Did the same

Didn’t want to move over to this app because the engagement isn’t the best but the engagement on Twitter has been trash since Elon took over so I’m giving it a shot again

Okay good let’s keep the chit chat to a minimum and the KH waves to a maximum

Oh wait you’re here? So much worse than anything over there smh

Really can’t take much more of the Trump/Nazi lover app anymore. Thinking about just permanently making the jump here

Maybe it was from earlier on. This was the first initial wrap up… looking at your photo again it does appear to be later in the evening

I think it was a rotating scuddy lowering looking back… definitely a wall cloud but nothing appeared to be down from closer up

*sighs* guess I gotta create an account over there now too

Damn it I thought we were safe wtf

Oh we’re cookin now

Still thinking about what to call posts here… “Clouds”™️ seems logical plus it fits with WxTwitter..
Or I guess it should be “WxSky”™️?

That is awful

Does Bluesky have a name for their posts? Twitter had “tweets”, what are these called?

Throwback to this beauty in Iowa
