one thing I will add here: the NWS staff *communicate like humans* in ways other gov't staffers seemingly aren't allowed to. it's a policy I wish other institutions would implement because it makes them so much more effective bsky.app/profile/raha...

I will happily help out my local NWS offices when they ask, even though they aren't in the same country! because they appreciate it and are happy to talk shop about weather besides 😅
