"Orages violents: comment fonctionne le système d’alerte d’Environnement Canada?"
Bravo, chers collègues!! Superbe vidéo. ⛈️

As always, this is not to blame the victims! Quite the opposite; this truly was a sudden & massive event and occurred at worst possible time (middle of the night). But problem, once again, was not a bad weather prediction: it was one of "last mile" forecast/warning dissemination.
There have been claims that NOAA/NWS did not foresee catastrophic TX floods--but that's simply not true. This was undoubtedly an extreme event, but messaging rapidly escalated beginning ~12 hrs prior. Flood Watch mid PM, "heads up" outlook late PM, flash flood warnings ~1am.

Why is the air quality in Montreal so bad today? Environment Canada's @sflisfeder.bsky.social joined Matt Gilmour with everything you need to know:
That's a Montreal bagel! Mmmm
NEW: US weather forecasting is in worse shape than previously known, with 30 NWS forecast offices missing meteorologists-in-charge and about a dozen offices at risk of no longer serving their communities 24/7. www.cnn.com/2025/05/02/w...
Fun!!!
This morning’s Lunar Eclipse from Montréal
Perfectly clear and calm skies. We’ve lucked out with the weather for eclipses over this last year.
Nice piece by three heavyweights on the academia side of meteorology explaining NOAA’s critical importance.
A public information statement announcing the end of some weather balloon launches due to staffing issues.
More fallout from the indiscriminate NWS firings:
"Effective immediately, and until further notice, the [NWS] is temporarily suspending some weather balloon launches in Albany, New York, and Gray, Maine, due to a lack of Weather Forecast Office (WFO) staffing."

Weather and climate data shown on this website and countless others are at risk. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is the U.S. agency responsible for global weather forecasting, hurricane prediction, ocean observation, and many other services vital to public safety. Its satellites, supercomputers, and research teams provide essential data that help us understand our planet and protect lives. On February 27, the new U.S. administration initiated mass firings at NOAA. These actions are unethical and deeply disruptive to the talented scientists and engineers who dedicate themselves to the public good. The firings, along with expected budget cuts, have serious implications for the availability and quality of weather forecasts produced by the United States. They must be reversed immediately. Much of the data on this website is downloaded directly from NOAA's servers. In this environment of uncertainty, access could be disrupted at any time. While I'll strive to keep all features on this website functional and switch to alternative data sources if necessary, some datasets have no substitute if they go offline. If this concerns you, speak up. Share on social media. And if you're in the U.S., contact your representatives. - Cameron
All websites that depend on NOAA data should display something like this.

It's March 1st! Happy Meteorological* Spring! 🌞🌷🌧️
*statistically convenient
Bottom line: The intentional loss of exceptional scientists and other terrific public servants at NOAA leaves our country less safe and more vulnerable.
The next few days gives #YYZ a very real shot at breaking not only the February snowfall record, but also the all-time monthly snowfall record; currently just 13.2cm shy

ECCC needs your help! We might not have an official account on BlueSky but we sure do look at your posts 💫 #NLwx x.com/ECCCWeatherN...
Can confirm: it's real bad out there. 😬
If you don't know how to read a TAF, I'll translate for you: Sunday's snowstorm looks real bad for Montreal. 🫠 #QCstorm #YUL

Le rapport d’Environnement Canada hier sur les plus fortes rafales. #meteoqc
Impressive low near Hudson Bay, Canada today. At last check the WPC analyzed it at 963 hPa, which is in record low territory for this time of year.
An arctic front associated with this strong low will be pushing into the Northeast tonight. [Graphics thanks to

11.2C yesterday in Montreal. Ringing in the new year with wet snow tomorrow. Then, falling temperatures through Monday. No thaws in sight!
Excellent blog post by @simonleewx.com about why Rwitter/X used to be so great for science/sci comm, its downfall, and how BlueSky has become a new home for scientists to share information.
