We're about to take you up in this #HurricaneHunter plane.

Photographer Tyler Horst and I joined the crew for a nearly 10-hour mission into the #atmosphericriver systems over the Pacific, flying halfway to Hawaii and back.

We'll show you how they do the job-- and how much more work there is to do improving forecasts for these systems on #ABC10 at 6:30pm. (ABC10 Roku/FireTV and abc10.com as well)

@nwsbayarea_bot Unusually specific and in fact absolutely correct. #AtmostphericRivers #AtmosphericFirehose

#PineappleWaterGrenade #atmosphericfirehose #Novato #belMarinKeys the edge of the Arlington lot at the end of Digital drive is adjacent to wetlands. I affectionately call it the swamp. We’ve had so much rain, the swamp is the highest I’ve ever seen

#storm2023 #atmosphericriver #atmosphericfirehose #Marin #Novato the animals are rejoicing at the moisture in #NorthernCalifornia of late. More rain coming tonight. All is safe and warm. Just some shrooms in the back forty today.

Now that we have a #bombcyclone and #PineappleExpress #AtmosphericRiver together, does that make…
an #AtmosphericWaterBomb? #atmosphericfirehose?
#PineappleWaterGrenade?

Other ideas?

Massive tree. Just massive. No idea when this will get cleared. #bayareaweather #bayareawx #atmosphericriver #atmosphericfirehose

So my 2022 went out with a bang. Literally. #atmosphericriver #atmosphericfirehose #weather #BayAreawx #bayareaweather

#Meteorology ppl:
Instead of #atmosphericriver, could we go with #atmosphericfirehose?
