New bots for today: @flashflood_bot for flash floods
@severetstorm_bot for severe thunderstorms
Also I have plumbed @nwstornado_bot to push out tornado warnings/graphics from my bot, rather than from the old broken bird site (can't snag stuff there at the moment) #wx #weather #wxtoot
Put up a test bot (likely will convert to permanent) putting out #Mesoscale Discussions from the #NWSSPC here: @spcmdc_bot #wx #wxtoot #tornado
Put up @iembot_hnx for #NWSHanford (unlisted posts). #HNX #weather #wxtoot #CAwx #weather cc @lckrohjr
New bot for those in #TN, @iembot_mrx (NWS Morristown, TN, MRX). Must follow to get updates as they are unlisted. #WX #TNwx #WxToot
Put up a new IEMbot for NWS Bay Area at @iembot_mtr due to the ongoing bomb cyclone for technical discussion/alerts/etc from the #NWS (very busy, so unlisted, followers only). #CAwx #WxToot #Weather #NWSBayArea cc @lckrohjr
New #NWS bot, @NWS_MountHolly_bot (for #Philadelphia and #MtHolly #NewJersey #NJ) , thanks to gardenstate.social for the hosting. #Weather #WX #WxToot #WxMastodon

Here's the heartwarming full story on that family that provided shelter for an entire tour bus of South Koreans on vacation near #Buffalo #NY (NYTimes, gift link from me you can share) #WxToot #weather #disaster #SouthKorea https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/25/nyregion/snow-storm-korean-tourists.html?unlocked_article_code=caqos2lJpZDX2_cSU9-3MEdg_ovLRdjOLX5TjbY-IhQ-2Xg-pvCfY7JCiBnKL3X0ppJSNqgLWT036Bk0SCrBB9X9BRuIQ3xNTIbgDVlMt6GY5BK12_G9TGYH41jdnoPiidz38uRQDE4tynt6FivPxyWxScNZmAsnRa9r4ZQQrblEqWzw6DrV5XwRK10bJvjlKl2eUYUvRVp1_Y46jZw6XWpexQ4QZXuMro-ftM0tuiIJncCtLVRGcs5vp-Y-Z3Fjo87RKwlOBCmjnKbDQ_Qek1s5rsBghBsRr4FkLbCIQW9fQ4SSbdkww2aotV0mnJ6sIk_-DkFkBNvv2TLGnsi857Kbuj4e&smid=share-url

The "Frostbite in 10 Minutes" zone in the US is quite large. Unsheltered individuals and outdoor animals are at the highest risk, they will perish (quickly) at those wind chill numbers. Anyone with a vehicle breakdown, and any areas losing power w/out heat also could be a bad situation. #wx #bombcyclone #cold #WXtoot #Wxmastodon #wind #windchill
Any #wx #weather folks, starting to put up IEMbot accounts here, as they are more reliable (but less pretty) than scraping NWS bird accounts.
@iembotctp
@iembot_gsp
@iembot_lox
@iembot_sgx
@iembot_hfo
There will be a lot more, @lckrohjr just put up an instance to specifically host these, will add to the list once he has that ironed out.
Second weather "bot" account moved, @nwsportland_bot is now hosted on pdx.social! #WX #WxToot #WxMastodon
New #NWS #Weather #WX bots this morning, @nwsmobile_bot @nwsshreveport_bot and @nwslakecharles_bot -- as usual, if anyone notices they are missing things or acting funny, let me know, all of these are experimental. #WxToot #WxMastodon
I've been advised (unofficially) that I shouldn't be using the NWS logos/etc. on my bots. Any attorneys want to give me some advice? (do I need to take all these down? I do have a disclaimer they are not official). I have no interest at all in getting involved in any kind of legal matter whatsoever. #weather #wx #wxtoot #wxmastodon
