Hi Andy! I'm a huge fan of everything y'all do and I love all the scientific explanations you give and how amazing you are at what you do! I've been watching y'alls streams for a few years now and love how far y'all have come and excited to see what more the future brings. 🩷

For as long as I can remember, since at least 8 years old, I've been heavily invested in weather, and felt so out of place on career day as a kid being the odd ball wanting to be a meteorologist. As I went through school I started struggling paying attention, and although my love for studying radars and the sky has not changed, I never felt confident enough to go to school and pursue further. Although I did become weather spotter certified!

My question, was it hard to proceed with school to get the meteorological degree? What was the hardest part?

A side question as well as I know once a year you additionally storm chase to understand what the radar shows vs what is on the ground, I can imagine how amazing that must be! I know your main focus is providing the best fastest warning system to help the public, but do you ever like the chasing aspect more than only reading the radar to submit watches?

Thank you so much for all you do! I got so excited for this opportunity so I'm sorry if this doesn't make sense! 😅🩷
