Finished my first day at NWS Fairbanks!

@CoDWXData Maybe this is asking far too much, but would it be possible to add NWS forecasting zones? I see that CWA lines are already an option. I live in Alaska, and boroughs are really far too large to act as good points of reference except for with the very small ones.

got quite a few new stations plotted. Indiana got 4, Iowa got a few that I remember. See if that helps fill in the gaps for your state! -Gilbert /end

We learned of a workaround to add missing METAR sites to our satellite overlays. I'm sure we've missed a few, but we added nearly 200 known missing ones from 2017-2026. A few states didn't see any additions, but some like Texas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia and Florida /1

What was the weather like on the day you were born, or at a key moment in history? With the Weather Replay app from #CopernicusClimate, you can explore & compare past weather around the world, hour by hour, from 1940 to just a few days ago. 🔗Read more climate.copernicus.eu/weather-replay…

Just went above freezing at PAFA for the first time since Halloween as of 5:10 PM! Kind of disappointing to only tie instead of break the record for latest ever first thaw given the winter we've been through (just needed one more day!), but too bad, I guess.

@stupidtechtakes I think its so funny when you search grokipedia the first result is wikipedias page about the site and not the site itself

UAF Alert: Bomb threat at Elvey Building. Avoid the area. Prepare to evacuate and follow instructions from authorities if you are in the building. Updates will be at uafalert.alaska.edu

Another Mount Spurr overflight video (from Feb 7, 2025) gives us a view of the summit lake and fumarole field.

@jamesaydelott I was born in Tulsa but lived in OKC / Edmond basically my entire life until 2022. Then I moved to Fairbanks, Alaska. Now being "only" 20 degrees in December or January feels relatively warm. Funny how the way it feels really just depends on how anomalous it is, on some level.

Nearly all of the records for Tulsa's "most hours straight below" a certain temp were set in December 1983. DO. NOT. WANT. EVER. AGAIN. Does anyone have the courage to stand up and admit they like weather this cold? LOLOL #okwx

Officially over 40F at the airport now 🫠

#OTD in 2004, a massive 9.1 magnitude #Earthquake struck off the coast of northern Sumatra, #Indonesia. The event unleashed a devastating #Tsunami, caused widespread destruction, and became one of the deadliest disasters in modern history. Learn more here: ow.ly/68M750UwarR

Even in 2015, the biggest objections were from Ohio's congressional delegation, simply because McKinley was an Ohioan.

This would have almost no support from locals reuters.com/world/us/trump…

@R_Metzger Thank you!

2 years ago, somehow

@ScottTGL1 Thanks!

Mildly satisfying

@Bianco_Met @emlee703wx @Zarhle1 @Nolan_Meister I remember roughly the same. The star was chosen because the issuer was a fan of the Dallas Stars.

@emlee703wx @Zarhle1 @Nolan_Meister Don’t quote me exactly on that lol, I was in a meeting while they were doing this

Y’all remember when Alaska did a test tornado warning with boundaries in the shape of a star back in May?

@GCIAK Hi, I can't seem to log in to My GCI? Seems to give me a blank page, so I can't check nor pay my bill. Thanks.

It has been sooo windy here the past couple days.
