I forgot who posted this earlier, but this is an excellent feed discussing what’s going on with the California fires. #wxwatchers www.youtube.com/live/pGn-thZ...
I had some reservations but yesterday was worth the wait. My gawd. #wxsky #wxwatchers #nmwx

There's a #WXWatchers feed but it's too generalized. We need regional hashtags like #BCStorm, #BCWildfire, etc. The fact that bluesky didn't have working hashtags initially was a disincentive for these communities to move over here early i think
Something Moore by Meteorologist Tom Moore returns with one of my favorite storms! The blizzard of 1996!
