Small taste of #Hurricane #MELISSA on SW coast of #Jamaica, just as we started getting raked by violent right eyewall. Belive it or not, this was before the peak conditions, when everything turned white, the screaming sound became unbearable, & we needed to bolt the door shut.

Remarkable to see such a vast area of ~EF2-3 level wind damage. Certainly not the intensity of a violent tornado, but at a far greater scale. Some hurricane proofed vacation homes destroyed, but there’s a noticeable difference in level of destruction (Black River comparison)

Want to honor this noble tree. It withstood the wrath of Cat-5 #Hurricane #MELISSA's inner-core winds. As the screaming white void swallowed up the town & started tearing the hotel apart, the tree danced & twisted obscenely. But it held on. Never gave up. I'm so in love with it.

Swing… and a (huge) miss Be careful with interpreting AI model run-to-run consistency as a sign of high confidence & likelihood — FNV3 was insistent on exceptional rapid deepening up to the last minute when it failed to materialize:

Wonderful to be at the Mid Atlantic Severe Weather Conference this year with my Tornado Talk friends - always uplifting to see how our field is being utilized for good purposes and see familiar faces.

If you missed the northern lights tonight, there is still a shot for Wednesday night as we are anticipating another solar storm to arrive around Nov 12 midday UT, or in the coming hours. This is from the X5.1 solar flare which launched a large CME towards Earth yesterday. This

Our Perseverance rover has recorded the sounds of electrical sparks and mini-sonic booms in dust devils on Mars. 🌪️⚡️ Long theorized, the phenomenon has now been confirmed through audio and electromagnetic recordings captured by the rover. Listen in: go.nasa.gov/4ow4612
