One of my friend’s neighbors took this photo. This is a street in Beavercreek, Ohio. Trees landed on cars, a trampoline in a sunroom, and a power line visibly down. Unbelievable.

Joe Burrow on the rumors that he doesn’t want to go to Cincinnati: “You guys (the media) kind of took that narrative and ran with it. There has never been anything like that from my end.”
#THANKYOU
If you had told me when I arrived in Bowling Green that I’d experience:
- a historic tornado outbreak
- warmest Christmas Day ever recorded for BG
- New Year’s Day severe weather
- A winter storm that brought significant snow
… All within the same month, I wouldn’t believe you
Is Cincinnati…
a baseball town?
a football town?
AND a basketball town?
We love sports is what this boils down to.
Glad we got the best in the biz to cover it

(1/2) Nice to know some viewers cared more about football than storms with confirmed damage of straight line winds & potential spin up tornadoes. Especially 3 weeks after the catastrophic large tornadoes we had. The two events are not comparable but given the recency, you’d think
Graduated with my Bachelor's of Meteorology from Ohio University yesterday!
Thank you to everyone who has supported me and guided me to where I am today! My childhood dream is now a reality... time to figure out where I go next! Stay tuned! :)
My good family friend, Shirley Lytle, sent this photo to me of the tornado that was in Sardinia, OH.
A lot of damage out of the tri-county area of northern Brown, northern Adams & southern Highland counties. We have a reporter on the scene & will provide updates

WOW! A BIG temperature difference between the Ohio River & the arctic air we are dealing with this morning (actual temp of -8°, wind chills as low as -36°) creating steam fog along the top of the river!

Roughly 18 years ago, my sister & I got to meet Taylor Swift in Hillsboro at the Hillsboro Festival of the Bells!
Does this make me & my sister
#Swifties
? 😂
Who’s all going to the Taylor Swift concert today & tomorrow???
For the record, this is 1mph shy of an EF-4 rating. Regardless on if it was an EF-3 or EF-4, this place saw significant damage. Don’t get caught up in the rating — NWS did an excellent job at surveying all of this.

The tornado that went through the city of Bowling Green early on December 11 has been officially declared an EF-3. The peak winds were estimated at 165 mph which occurred at Kentucky TransPark northeast of town. 1/3

got the memo to wear something bright tonight… we’ve got bright days ahead with sunshine AND warm conditions!
Who’s ready for the warmth?!? 🌞🤞
(2/2) that folks would be concerned & understanding for storms that have potential (& confirmations) of damage.
I hope the hateful emails and messages were of the minority — if they aren’t, then I’m heartbroken.
We’re better than this.
I’m so thankful to have worked
@WBKOTV
& have had such a great team to work with. It’s such a special place & I’m going to miss this area. Thank you
@Main_Event_Wx
for giving this Ohio guy a chance to be the morning meteorologist in the middle of a pandemic. I’m forever grateful!
I’m not even the most popular “Ethan Emery” in South Dakota — that title goes to East River football team Bridgewater-Emery/Ethan. I’m going to make an effort to visit this school someday...
Thank you
@MichaelEMann
for not only coming to
@ohiou
to speak about

, but also discussing it & more with the meteorology students in our dynamics class! Also thank you for the signature & words of encouragement!!
It’s BAFFLING to me that people say they are “disappointed” by Tuesday’s storms & were mad that Wheel of Fortune or Jeopardy weren’t on the air when we were dealing with confirmed tornado warnings Tuesday.
We cover weather for more than your back door. It’s incredibly selfish.
Made it home safely & just in time to see my dad when he got off work.
Here’s a view of my backyard. Thanks for the kind words! Just when I was done packing & moving... about to do it again soon.
Have a great week & sending much love to the Black Hills from southern Ohio ❤️
Yesterday was really busy for both of us, but wanted to post about a great friend in Bowling Green, Kentucky.

We’re going to cover life-threatening warnings as we see fit, and we will repeat messaging due to the nature of people tuning in at different times so they know what to expect.
Hope you have a great day Chuck! 🙂
It was so nice to see some familiar faces on my weekend trip in

We did the best we could without it, but this is a sign that things are improving (though we have a long way to go).

We can only hope no loves were lost tonight. Nocturnal tornadoes through a metro area is the worst case scenario... & that happened in Dayton. It may not be much, but I’m praying for everyone affected tonight.

I just got enough service to check social media.
My heart hurts for everyone who has been impacted by last nights tornadoes, winds & flooding. We are a strong community & will overcome this devastation.
Love you all in

WOW!! I LOVE this photo that Dexter sent us from Scottsville! The smoke in our atmosphere from wildfires out west is giving us the red sunrises & sunsets. This bird enjoys the view, too!

This is NOT a tornado!!!!
We did not experience tornadoes of this size!! Any tornado that *possibly* developed would’ve been thin & long & would’ve been brief given the atmospheric conditions.
I've been wanting these since they first came out & now I finally have them! I think they were bad (or good) luck with all of the storms we had this evening across the Black Hills! What do you think?? Stylish, ugly, or too dorky??

There’s been a lot of chatter on social media about severe weather potential for New Year’s Day.
Though the threat is certainly possible, it is too far out to discuss details. Plus it is irresponsible to compare this to any recent historical events.

It's going to get loud tonight at Houchens Industries–LT Smith Stadium as the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers face off against the University of Tennessee-Martin Skyhawks! You couldn't ask for better football weather conditions in early September for Bowling Green!

We’re live this morning in Bowling Green, KY where a strong EF-3 tornado moved through the city almost one year ago. This is the Creekwood & Spring Creek communities where homes are being rebuilt.

Businesses are still rebuilding following the December Tornado Outbreak that caused significant damage in western Kentucky — including in Bowling Green. Though some businesses have reopened since, some are still closed nearly one year later.
