welp. not the greatest time for SPC's mesoanalysis page to make blank surface observation maps for the SE sector (other sectors seem fine though)

I'm so excited about this! I caught video of a lightning bolt that was ALSO scanned by radar and detected by GLM. This is only the second time I've managed to match up video/photo and radar, and it's my own video! So stoked. Not the best example of either, but hey it's a match!

are the 2025 Indiana Pacers the most underrated NBA team of all time? to go up 2-0 on the road against the 2 presumptive favorites to make it out of the Eastern Conference back to back is insane

please don't do this University System of Maryland. AccuWeather did not issue the tornado warning. by law, that's not their authority. the NWS issued the tornado warning, and you choose to pay AccuWeather to tell you when those warnings are issued. it is not the same thing
