(1 /5) Time for a vent session of yet another racist encounter in Montana:
I'm returning to my vehicle from grabbing an energy drink at a gas station. Some older gentlemen pumping gas next to me says "I think you missed your exit. Missoula is almost 7 hours away." I responded...

We were treated with some Kelvin-Helmholtz waves up here in Big Sky country before the cold front moves through later this morning. This is the first time I have seen them this clear.

Sorry my family and I are living the American dream...

Happy Pride Month to those who celebrate! We, as a society, set aside certain periods throughout the year in which we recognize the struggles of those who have been oppressed. That's it. To move ahead as a more just society, recognition of that struggle is the first step. 🏳️🌈

(3/5) ... I responded, that I work at the weather service in town and that I am happily serving the people of NE MT in supporting the NWS mission. I don't think he liked that answer. He asked where I was from. I said Houston. He then followed up by asking if I was born in Houston

A good brain break activity: chasing auroras. This one lit up EVERYTHING green and bright so much so that I was finally able to take a time-lapse of them. I coulda done without the howling wind though. A night I will never forget.

Well, I had quite the night. Tonight I issued my first Tornado Warning and boy, was the tornado (landspout, whatever

Masters in Hydrology in the bag. It was a crazy two years, but I am beyond glad to be finished and ready to spend more time camping and exploring Montana on my days off.
Ph.D? Nah, not my thing. Maybe in the next life!

Today, I celebrate my 1 year anniversary at the NWS and at GGW. I have learned a lot since then. 16 SVRs and 1 TOR issued. I still have a lot to learn, but I have no worries as the team here at GGW has some of the greatest minds among it. Here's to many more years to come!

I need a quick vent session:
Upon arriving at the border crossing today, I handed the Border Patrol agent my passport. I answered his questions. He then says, "Enrique... when was the last time you visited Canada?" I quickly corrected him and said my name is Angel.

A reflection of my 2022: This year will go down as the most memorable one thus far in my first 2 decades of life. I took a big leap and left my first job post-college for my dream job. I moved from Oklahoma to Montana. I traded tornadoes for mountains and snow... 1/3

On my brain break today in between issuing warnings (Take them! They're important), I set my phone outside to capture the storm that passed through
@NWSGlasgow
. On the horizon, you can probably see the storms that would eventually produce a 🌪 in Saskatchewan.

Being called into severe wx ops and having this be your drive into work is worth it sometimes. NE MT ceases to amaze me. This would eventually become the storm that later produced reported funnels and tornadoes north of town.

Thanks to everyone who congratulated me on finally getting my Masters. I finally had the chance to meet some of my cohort for the first time. My family also finally (after 5 yrs) got to see the beauty of Oklahoma. I had my traditional F5 IPA during the tornadoes last week. (1/2)

What's the most spontaneous trip you've ever done? I'll start... I drove 10 hrs from Glasgow, MT to Greeley, CO to be at the Buc-ee's grand opening in Johnstown this Monday. Now it'll be a day drive rather than a few flights. Great to be back in my alma mater's town!

Made a trip to Fort Peck Lake after work last night to get more aurora pics, but found that the fuzzy green band was it for the night. Then the moon rose and made it look like the pot at the end of the aurora band. 🤩

It's very disheartening the backlash a fellow Houston MET is having for interrupting their broadcast to disseminate a tornado warning happening within the metro. Maybe we need to bring the fellow Texans and Okies down to HTX for a serious talk about this importance of it.

Happy Independence Day, US! I spent another day in Waterton and got to celebrate both in Canada and in the US where a boat tour dropped us off on US soil. This an international peace park, meaning no passport required (so long as I didn't stay beyond 30 min). Best 4th ever!
