- Reposted by New York Times WeatherWhy do weather apps sometimes have wild snow amounts? It's not a glitch; it's model uncertainty showing its face. I broke down what the apps are actually displaying and what the public needs to know.
- Reposted by New York Times WeatherMyth busted: Trees don't explode when temperatures hit rock bottom. ❄️ But they *do* go 'pop!' That distinct sound is frost cracking—a structural injury caused by the cold itself, separate from ice/snow weight damage. The science is fascinating.
- Even a little ice can be far more dangerous than snow in some places. Here's a map of where forecasters are most concerned. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/23/w...

- Abnormally blustery temperatures this weekend could usher in snowy weather across the eastern US. Exactly where remains uncertain, but even the Deep South is on alert. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/16/w...
- The National Weather Service issued a dire warning in effect through late Friday across Colorado and Wyoming. A potent combination of wind gusts up to 100 mph and humidity levels likely to drop into the teens could cause wildfires that spread rapidly. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/19/w...

- It's evident to meteorologists that Melissa had cemented its place in hurricane history. Here’s why. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/28/w...
- A hurricane hunter flight that had just entered the eye of Hurricane Melissa was abruptly aborted on Monday after the crew encountered severe turbulence and was forced to abandon its mission to collect data on how strong the storm had become. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/27/w...
- The calm, 11-mile-wide eye of Hurricane Melissa is encircled by its most ferocious winds, which are now beginning a painstakingly slow turn toward Jamaica — a crawl that will drag the storm over the island at a speed no faster than a person can walk. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/27/w...
- When Melissa grew from a tropical storm into a powerful Category 4 hurricane this weekend, it became the fourth of this year’s five Atlantic hurricanes to undergo what hurricane experts call “rapid intensification.” Its wind speeds doubled in less than a day. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/26/w...
- Direct landfalls from big hurricanes are rare for Jamaica. Melissa could pummel the island as an “upper-end” Category 4 storm, forecasters said. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/26/w...

- The Navy began evacuating hundreds of U.S. citizens to Florida from the Navy base at Guantánamo Bay on Saturday, days ahead of the possible arrival of a major hurricane in that portion of eastern Cuba. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/25/u...
- Like a plane stuck circling an airport waiting for a runway to land, Melissa has been stuck in a holding pattern in the Caribbean with no exit for days, because there’s no other weather pattern to steer it anywhere else. Here are the likely scenarios, day by day. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/25/w...
