We're the third wheel of forecast offices. We still use WSR-57. Winner of Biggest Polygon at the county fair. Not an actual NWS office…but we should be.

We're here 24/7 staring at screens to keep you safe. Most of the screens have weather on them. Some have SpongeBob. But it's mostly weather.

Temperatures are in the 90s across the region. They're eating Dunkaroos and watching Rugrats.

Intern Roy is thriving in his summer rotation at GSP!
Look what showed up today. In meteorology, we refer to these clouds as Puffy Wuffy. #ncwx #scwx #gawx #cltwx

Everyone. You're all so sweet, even when we mix up the high and low temperatures. 🥺
Who is someone you've exclusively interacted with on #wxtwitter that you would like to meet in person? Honestly as easy as it is to complain about the drama on here, I am very thankful for the various IRL and online friendships and connections I've made in this community.

HQ likes to change our password so we can't tweet anymore. They say we're a "walking disaster" and a "massive liability." Pish posh. They're afraid to live. And we always figure out the new code.
Replying to @NWSPodunk
First time I’ve heard from you guys in a while! Sending you an @ so maybe the algorithm will show it to me before I blame Roy for forgetting to post again. I miss tweeting.

If you can't see auroras tonight, shine a light on the wall and make shadow puppets. It's less tweetable, but at least you'll have a little fun being a silly goose!

One of our computers thunk too fast and now all of our products are down until tomorrow. This outage replaces yesterday's outage, which was caused by bad vibes.

Our seasonal outlook calls for at least one named storm this summer. We will name it Bob.

Our website is currently offline while we bring you the newest and latest technology. Nah, just kidding. Intern Roy unplugged the server to use the toaster. It'll be back soon.

Good news! The radar is operational. Pigeons should be safe to fly through the beam again.
