#okwx  is trending on G+, I wish it were for a better reason.  I thoughts and prayers are with those in Oklahoma affected by these storms.

NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) "captures a shot of the sun every 12 seconds in 10 different wavelengths." The video features images from the past three years, "at a pace of two images per day." Beautiful.

It is not often there is a "T" named tropical system, but this year just off the coast of Australia is a Tropical Cyclone name Tim.  I'm so proud of my weak little system. +Timothy Ballisty you should be proud too :)

Here in El Paso, I hear people say all the time "We don't get tornadoes here because of the mountains."  This article will help dispel that myth.

Like many NWS offices around the country, the NWS office in El Paso has been doing four-a-day balloon release instead of the normal two release each day.  These extra balloon release will help computer model better forecast the track of Hurricane #Sandy and the weather systems that could influence the storm.  Thanks to NWS El Paso SOO Val MacBlain for the beautiful balloon release.

East coast friends here are a couple of things to keep in mind with Sandy, please read & share. 

Sandy combined with the strong trough will create a unique type of storm system. One that if you are in-land can mean major wind impacts you would only expect on the coast. It’s very rare to see a strong tropical system merge with such a strong winter like trough of low pressure. Throw in a full moon and the potential is there for a significant storm. This system is 1 part Hurricane, 1 part Nor’easter and 1 part Blizzard potentially. Impacts of all 3 types of storms are possible depending on location. 

For those on the coast don’t let the Category of the storm or whether it's "just" a Nor'easter dictate your response. Your personal memories of previous storms are no use in this unique situation. This may be the first time in many people’s lifetimes or in theshort per... more »

The folks at NOAA have take the wind visualization map and applied it to the currents of the Great Lakes and the results are just as beautiful.  http://www.glerl.noaa.gov/res/glcfs/currents/

One advantage to working a midnight shift.  When you get the Jelly Bean update for your GNex at 2:30 AM you get to start playing with it right away. Still downloading as I type this post.
