"It gets worse. Katie Nickolaou is a meteorologist in Michigan who was on the dangerous end of a social media post threatening her life and other meteorologists. “Murdering meteorologists won’t stop hurricanes,” she responded, according to The Guardian. “ I can’t believe I just had to type that.”

Meteor showers are about the only chance of any kind of showers we will see any time soon as high pressure sticks around for the rest of the week.

The #OrionidMeteorShower peaks tonight with #meteors originating near the #constellation of #OrionTheHunter. Not one of the biggest showers, but worth some stargazing into Tuesday morning.

Fighting #Misinformation Online

“People have called me a plethora of curse words, people telling me to shut up and sit down, people who think it’s OK to take out Doppler radar because they think it is controlling the weather,” Nickolaou said. “It is eating up a lot of work and free time to deal with all of this. It’s very tiring.”

#WDEFWeather #News12Weather - Friday Night weather looking excellent for this week's match-ups around the Tennessee River Valley with light winds.

Taking a jacket along would not be a bad idea as temperatures are expected to fall off quickly post sunset.

Taking the pupper for a walk this morning, you might need a jacket as it will be a bit brisk.
