- An excellent thread! It truly is a wild time to be an educator.
- A year and a half ago, I attended an Earth Observation workshop sponsored by @westernuspace.bsky.social. There was a talk about tornadoes that got me thinking - could we detect and characterize tornado tracks with synthetic aperture radar?
- I had never studied severe weather before (or written a purely "terrestrial" paper), so I reached out to the Severe Storms Lab. They introduced me to Sophia Slabon, a bright undergraduate student in Geography, and Dr. Connell Miller.
- The Planetary Science Journal is looking for a new scientific editor! You would be working with my good friend Dr. Brian Jackson, the new editor-in-chief. aas.org/jobregister/...
- An article from Science about the changes LPSC has made to its abstract submission process. As my colleague @theplanetaryguy.bsky.social states, "This is censorship". www.science.org/content/arti...

- I don’t usually watch baseball, so I never subscribed to Sportsnet and can’t watch it live. Instead, I’m tracking the plays on Google, and wow, it is not as fun. But go Jays! I still remember the last World Series they won back in 1993.
