I’ve come to the conclusion that most Kentuckians interpret the official winter weather headlines like this:
Winter Weather Advisory: 🍞+🥛
Winter Storm Watch: 🍞🍞+🥛🥛
Winter Storm Warning: 🥃+🛷

Across our platforms,
@wxornotBG
has registered over 10 million impressions/hits over the last month.
When I left UPS Flight Control to move into my parents basement & launch a weather blog, this is what I dreamed of. Extremely grateful to serve the WABBLES community.

The number of fireworks going off in my neighborhood has me questioning history. Are we positive the USA gained independence on July 4th, not June 30th?

PSA: Posting scary weather graphics with CAPS LOCK on does not equate to “Providing important messaging to protect life & property”.
Folks are ultra-sensitive to info they take in, given the devastating weather event(s) we’ve experienced over the past 12-18 months. Be better.

There’s rumors circulating about a

Hardest part of this gig is surveying damage after a long day of severe coverage. We confirmed 3 separate tornadoes today in Logan Co & Butler Co today.
Checkout the tree limb splintering and splitting the brick of a demolished home.

Found this beautiful Frenchie with a spike collar running the streets of Springfield. He was extremely thirsty, but otherwise fine. He’s in good hands. Will hold onto him for a bit before taking him to be checked for microchip.

Looking forward to my newest endeavor, diving head first into the real estate business. If you know of anyone looking to buy or sell in/around the Bowling Green area, I’d love the opportunity to represent and assist them with their needs. 🏡

The top reason for a toxic environment in any organization is a lack of communication, no question.
A lack of communication leaves a void that gets filled by negativity. Every. Single. Time.
This leads to 3 things:
1) High Turnover
2) Low Morale
3) Rise in Internal Conflicts

I can’t lie. This one’s been incredibly difficult. The best dog I’ve ever had.
It’s with great sadness we share the loss of the OG member of the
@wxornotBG
pack, Piper.
She was nothing but a joy, and kept a lonely, young man in his early twenties sane in the early days of launching a weather blog in his parent’s basement.

I don’t care how many degrees you have or how much formal education you have.
You have more info in your pocket 📲 than NASA did when they put a man on the moon. If you’re not self educating yourself...that’s on you.

Many of the asshats that appear in my messages across social platforms to let me know how wrong a forecast is are the ones defending an administration for...being wrong about a forecast.
If you fail to think critically, you only see what you’re told. Strange times we’re in.

In addition to being phenomenal at getting the latest important news out to our community, Joe is a phenomenal person. Truly deserving of this and someone who will pour his all into serving his constituents.
Biggest Breaking News I’ve ever tweeted…I’m running for 4th District Magistrate. After 30 years of documenting the people of Warren Co. as photojournalist, time to work side-by-side with them, for them.

You must set aside time for yourself. It’s alarming, especially more recently, of the number of individuals/clients I interact with that are suffering from “burnout”.
If you’re not dedicating time to do the things you enjoy, you won’t enjoy life.

Why isn’t anyone posting the WPC experimental winter weather outlook today, you ask? It’s showing a less than 10% probability for a white Christmas (left), compared to the 50-70% probability it showed yesterday (right). Not good enough for likes & RTs, perhaps?
