Yeah so Thursday 👀

We must remain in our basement and break down radar

A plea to the weather community: as we start to see models ran and coming in, PLEASE do not take these models at their word. The significant impacts they will probably show are not likely to take place

Alright, so we've tested the ability to live stream and sync probe data w/ live stream visuals. This season, weather permitting (lol), you'll see real-time 1hz updates and telemetry from our tornado and mesonet probes, as well as our storm chasers' vehicles live on stream. I'm really hoping this public engagement helps inspire people to pursue careers in weather, or at minimum, encourage people to step out of their comfort zone to build something new. This season the choice was Arrow Media (the TV show) or RISE-26. Arrow Media told me that I could simply refund my GoFundMe donors. I said "no." I'm not here to pretend to be some loser on TV. I'm here to be a loser in real life (kidding), but seriously, the goal is to do something new, something cool, and do it to the best of our ability. Thanks for supporting RISE-26. Wait til you see what our -27 mission is next year. RISE-26 Starts April, 2026 *****-27 announces November, 2026.

ARE YOU WITH US? For the first time since 2005, we're heading to the FINAL FOUR.

Illinois is going to the Final Four

THE ILLINI KEEP ON FIGHTING AND ARE HEADED TO THE FINAL FOUR 😤 Did you have Illinois making it this far in your bracket? 👀

With how much I just paid in taxes, I expect to never hit another pothole again. My truck should feel like it’s FLOATING.

Just got done doing my taxes. Y’all remember when we declared our independence and started a war back in 1776 because we were getting taxed 1%? Those were the days.

2026 I’m taking no prisoners. Ditch driving and souvenirs. You were warned #WxTwitter
