Family went to the @WeatherFestival today! Brooks loved the @kfor and @koconews helicopters (thanks to the pilots for being class acts). Both of them enjoyed the tornado at the @OUARRC !

In 2019 I attended Weather Fest in the midst of transferring to OU for the following spring semester. For the first time since then, Weather Fest was back in-person today and I was able to experience the joy all over again as a Weather Friend! A full circle moment #NWF22

I had a BLAST at the National Weather Festival 2022. Issued my first tornado warning, met a ton of great people, and saw some pretty amazing things. Can’t wait for next year! – at Norman, OK
