When a tornado warning pops up in the middle of your weather hit, you pull a Clark Kent: step offscreen, remove jacket, roll up sleeves, pop back on air. In less than 90 seconds lol #severeweather #GAwx #ATL #TornadoWarning

Another round of showers and storms overnight with the potential for strong-to-severe storms containing large hail, strong damaging winds, and even an isolated tornado. The severe risk tonight is a level 1 of 5 for most of the area #SevereWeather #ATL #GAwx

You don't always need thunder & lightning for a tornado. Classic debris signature on radar this afternoon (correlation coefficient) with the line of heavy showers across Henry County today. There was enough rotation for a brief spin up, but clearly damage was done. #GAwx #tornado

#NorthernLights ALERT: The #aurora may be visible tonight! You won't be able to see them with your naked eye, but using a camera with a longer exposure, or your cell phone on night mode, you may be able to get a shot. Best time to try is between 10p and 1am #GAwx #ATL

Look for the threat for #severe storms to return late Friday into early Saturday. We're still a few days out, so timing can change, but looks like the threat will arrive in the metro #ATL area from 12am-2am Sat. Damaging winds will be the main threat #GAwx #severestorms

Looking for the threat for severe weather tomorrow late afternoon/evening. West central GA is in a level 3 of 5 risk, mainly for damaging straight-line winds, but an isolated tornado can't be ruled out. The rest of us are under a level 2 of 5 risk #GAwx #ATL

A severe thunderstorms watch has been issued for east-central Georgia, including northeast metro #ATL, until midnight. Greatest #severe threat will be damaging straight-line winds, with gusts over 75mph possible with the strongest storms. #GAwx #severestorms #severeweather

#GOES Mesoscale happened to be pointed over North Georgia today and may have picked up the #meteor on the water vapor channel around 12:25pm. It's the bright orange dot that blips over Henry County #Satellite #ATL #meteorite

Look what we did!! Proud to be a part of the The Weather Channel team last year that worked on this landfall program. So I guess I should add Emmy Award-winner to the bio 🏆

Career bucket list item checked off!Incredibly proud of our team over at The Weather Channel for earning this incredible honor. Hurricane shows, especially landfall, are always a challenge, but it goes to show that hard work and an amazing team do get recognized #TheEmmys #NewsEmmy

Looking relatively HOT for the Georgia Tech game this weekend as Temple travels to the Flats. Game time temperatures will be trending 5-8 degrees above average for the last weekend of summer

#Melissa remains a catastrophic cat 5 hurricane with maximum-sustained winds of 175mph. To put that into perspective, those maximum winds in the upper-right quadrant are equivalent to an EF4 tornado! This will be the strongest hurricane on record to impact the island of Jamaica

#HurricaneHunters find possible 188mph surface wind in the eyewall of #Melissa 👀 When I made the graphic, I set the top end at 175, so this is literally off my chart

Can you spot the cold front?! An arctic blast is set to bring temps below freezing tonight and tomorrow night across most of North Georgia #ArcticBlast #ColdFront

Looking at the latest data from the solar flare slamming into Earth right now, and it doesn't look like tonight's #aurora display will be as impressive. Still very RARE to even have the opportunity to see the #NorthernLights this far south.
