@DurkinWeather @SpecNews1Albany Mother Nature is clearly confused.

Most of New York State has failed to reach 70 degrees this afternoon while some haven't even hit 60 degrees! Spectrum News 1 #WxOnTHe1s #Buffalo #Rochester #Syracuse #Albany #HudsonValley #Binghamton #Watertown #NYwx

@NWSSPC For the love of Southwestern Texas, we hope this is supposed to say “grape-sized.” Autofill can be tough, but not as tough as grapefruit-sized hail.

05/04/2024 2:41 PM CDT: Severe thunderstorms will continue to intensify over southwestern Texas today. Grapefruit sized hail and strong tornadoes are possible. Please tune in to broadcast media or NOAA weather radio for possible warnings.

Please watch the video below to learn how you can sponsor a child in crisis this holiday season. news10.com/video/things-o…

@CarolineRCurran Thank you Caroline! 💕

@csd_south @ICareCCHS @UnitedWay_GCR Thank you to the Icare Team, students, and staff members at South Colonie High School for representing the greatness within our region. Always remember, when we choose greatness, we empower those around us to choose it as well.

CCHS @ICareCCHS welcome back assembly. Proud to partner with @UnitedWay_GCR and @TOMVOkids this school year. Greatness is a choice. #ProudlyColonie

@NWSAlbany Thank you for the fun facts! It is clear that Albany residents were ripped off by Mother Nature in the summers of 1927 and 2023. 🙂

(2/2) In addition, Albany did not reach 85 degrees on any single day in the month this year. There is only one other year on record in which this occurred (1927). #nywx #vtwx #mawx #ctwx

Thank you to everyone for believing in the children and families we serve, and the work that we do. We did it! We can move mountains when we push forward together. instagram.com/reel/Cvp1SEMJu…

Today we launched our Summer Sponsor a Child in Crisis Program. You can help children impacted by violence by picking up a Wish Tag at Slice, located at 10 Glenridge Road in Glenville. Or, make a donation online at thingsofmyveryown.org/donate/, and we will shop for you!

@FirstScotia @BGCSchenectady @CommCaregivers @JoanNicolePrin1 Congratulations to the entire team at First National Bank of Scotia on achieving 100 years in business. It is admirable that you are using your time of celebration, as an opportunity to make an even greater impact on your community. Great job everyone!

As part of our #centennial, we’re presenting $21K to five local charities: @BGCSchenectady @TOMVOkids @CommCaregivers @JoanNicolePrin1 and Saratoga County Veterans Service Agency. We’ll be sharing a short video on each finalist and inviting you to vote for your favorite!

Wondering what the inside of our aid packages look like? Here’s a sneak peak. instagram.com/reel/CtHNjlZAT…

Wait until you see how we combine science and social work to empower children who have been impacted by trauma. Our entomology series is scheduled to begin on Wednesday!

Come on teachers tell us the truth. Do schools close the week after Easter to ensure that the sugar high will be over before you get our kids back? If so, you should add a late fall break to the calendar, right after Halloween.

@TectaAmericaNE Thank you to the entire team @TectaAmericaNE for your support of children in crisis situations.

The end of November unofficially kicks off the #giving season, and people from Tecta America WeatherGuard spread the spirit of giving by purchasing gifts and making donations to @TOMVOkids. Thank you to the WG team for helping a child in their community have a happy holiday!

@CapDistFun @NatGeo Nat Geo toys are AMAZING! 💕

They've also got lots of @NatGeo toys on their Amazon wish list: amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls…

@MissMandy88 @pulte Thank you for being an advocate for the children we serve. 💕
