You’re not getting how this works, Kirstie. If your followers are going down it’s because they are willfully leaving you in droves. You picked the wrong hero.
@SenTedCruz
If you complained about it and acted equally during Republican presidents, people might believe you. Instead it's painfully obvious that this is part of the tag-team political charade that only seems to become a crisis when the White House is not occupied by a Republican.

The good apples are celebrated all the time, it’s a fallacy to suggest they aren’t. But when it’s your job by definition to be the good apple, it’s all the more reason to exclaim more loudly when the apple is bad. Bad apples shouldn’t get a pass because of the good apples.

The problem is that it doesn't matter if its fake or not; hundreds of thousands of them with believe it even though its fake and that's exactly why conservative talking heads push it; they do not care that it's fake. Their viewers will believe it anyway and it will enrage them.

Thank you Rep Demmings for recognizing the corruption for what it is. Impeachment was designed for presidents like this; to not move forward would be an abdication of duty and set a terrible precedent for future occupants of the Oval Office.

Oh yes, Trump was a gifted orator. Who can forget his more famous emotes; "I have great respect for the UK. United Kingdom. Great respect. Some people call it Britain. They call it Great Britain. They used to call it England. Different parts."

Honestly we're just more honest with time stamps; it takes a radar station up to 10 minutes to do a full 360 sweep of its area, we just choose not to fudge the times. We pull the radar radials in a live stream directly from the radar network, process it in real time on our own

I have had electric cars since 2015, my electric bill is another $30-$40 a month at best. It’s faster, I have never had a maintenance or oil change bill or any other fluid change bill, for that matter, and I’ve never had to replace brakes. You’re being misled.

Why do you say that? We wrote all of our own software, including the software that processes all the raw radar data and then displays it to users in the app. We also have our own AI algorithms that predict rain down to the minute to let us notify users, among a ton of other stuff

Tornadoes are heart-wrenching disasters that can destroy entire cities with little to no warning. MyRadar visits Sulphur, Oklahoma, to tell their story and highlight a ray of hope in scientific advancements in weather prediction. Very proud of the entire crew for this one :)

We have a feature that lets users upload weather photos, if they choose. You have to opt into it, we can’t/don’t do it without your permission or consent first. If you don’t want to upload photos then we won’t have access to your photos :)
Every year I dread the silly comments we'll get from posting “Happy Pride” from the MyRadar brand account, but then I’m reminded of why we do it in the first place; to remind those of us who feel shame in what they are that they should be proud of who they are :)
Happy Pride!

Yeah, Apple and Google don't share ID's with each other, and we don't have access to ID's (our app has no way of identifying you) so there's no way to know you had a new device. If you DM me a copy of your original receipt with Google I'll get you set up on the iPhone.

Hey there! Nope, MyRadar is a free app - there are some optional extras you can upgrade to, if you want, but the vast bulk of the app is free. If you saw something otherwise you may have been looking at a different app - if you see something different than this, let me know!

Wow, this quite literally puts things into perspective. This shows how significant the shortfall of attitude control was; I'm gonna maybe go out on a limb and suggest a software issue, but it's a wild guess. Seems like a lot of sensors would have to fail for this to be an RCS

You call it sensationalizing, but what do you think it going to be more easily absorbed by most users; "7 standard deviations from the norm" or "1000 year event".

They gave people free access to play with it at will with a really simple interface; users had great experiences with it and told their friends about it, and as a result, it blew up. Whatever the particulars, that hasn’t seemed to happen with other similar services the same way.
@waynebrumbaugh
@MyRadarWX
It's possible that the rain was what they call "verga", that's rain that falls from the clouds but evaporates before it hits the ground. The radar will trigger our algorithms to tell you about it - but once it nears the ground, its out of range of the station...
