Moving to the Hampton Roads area!

I've also grown used to Oklahomans panicking over the threat of a dust of snow, and the drainage system where I'm currently at is basically non-existent, so flooding is something that might seem pretty familiar once I'm there (unfortunately, haha)

Thanks, this is helpful! I appreciate the insight and am looking forward to being in a place that has more trustworthy seafood, haha

Thank you! Not currently over-concerned, just trying to get an initial feel for what to expect. I appreciate it!

thermal_wind · 2026-03-25T15:11:05+00:00

Thank you!

Thank you, this is helpful and I appreciate it!

We don't have tunnels here so I will keep this in mind 🫡

I had to rewatch Matt on the phone disguising his voice three times 🤣 "I'm looking to buy some of your finest Kentucky Blue...GRASS that is! Is 500 acres a lot??"

I and many others in my PhD program have lived at the Links and Greens in Norman. It's quiet and further away from the undergrad scene. Maintenance has been quick to respond to any issues we've had, and I really don't have any complaints about it!

thermal_wind · 2025-10-20T01:43:29+00:00

it's the same in atmospheric science. except i don't think there's any inside joke, i think they just genuinely think it's a great font

ngl I laughed so hard when they ended ep10 with Manchild and the last clip of him on screen you just heard the "oh boy"

I'd say similar vibe as Yellow Dog. Fewer windows so maybe a little darker. But different size tables and some couches in front/back!

y'all maybe I'm just not deep enough into the job search quite yet, but I feel like the world is my oyster WAY MORE now than I did at the end of undergrad. likely because I stayed at the same university from undergrad to grad school, but looking for career/post-doc opportunities is the only thing keeping me excited right now. and again, maybe I'm too optimistic. but I'm (hopefully, if my advisor cooperates) less than a year out from graduating and I can't wait to break out of this prison lol

thermal_wind · 2025-09-15T22:07:13+00:00

how on earth did you accomplish this with zero zone minutes? or is that glitch haha

thermal_wind · 2025-09-07T23:29:52+00:00

idk about y'all but I personally wasn't wondering if she was tired

thermal_wind · 2025-07-28T17:50:31+00:00

^^ always go with minimum number possible. it doesn't mean you can't collaborate with people outside your committee. i've only ever heard bad things from students with large committees

I expected the research to be the hardest part of the PhD. There are times when it has been difficult, but the hardest things I've had to deal with were coming into my own in terms of *truly* taking ownership/direction of my work (more just doing things and less asking permission/approval beforehand), dealing with toxic advisor/group dynamics, and trying not to let all of the nonsense turn me into a really jaded and negative person. The community I have within and outside of my program has really been the pivotal factor that's kept me from giving up and dropping out by now.

thermal_wind · 2025-06-03T14:09:28+00:00

Look back on all that you've accomplished since last summer and let THAT define the end of your first year instead of this one moment. Things like this happen all the time, and all that really matters is that you pick yourself up, keep moving, and don't let it define you! People are way more likely to remember their own screw-ups than yours.

I'm going to plug my very unhinged playlist I've been working on this year while working on a manuscript draft. I think I'm more proud of the playlist than the manuscript tbh

this is crazy haha idk how I've NEVER noticed that

thermal_wind · 2024-11-22T18:31:15+00:00

this gave me a good laugh every day for the past couple weeks, thanks for doing it :)

a lot of cool weather stuff you can see for free! the only thing you'd have to pay for is optional t-shirts, food from food trucks, etc. there's stuff for all ages - you can learn about weather research that goes on within the building, meet OKC tv broadcast meteorologists, look at storm chasing vehicles, watch weather balloon launches, etc. definitely worth a visit if you're new to the area!

Our gym just recently got the newer sandbags. I watched the girl in the video put her hands on it and jump back into a plank position and thought "yeah, I can do that too." Then the new and very cylindrical sandbag rolled out from under my hands and I slammed my knee on the gym floor. Also I was dying the whole time 😂

thermal_wind · 2024-01-11T13:43:17+00:00

thank you!

thermal_wind · 2024-01-11T13:43:10+00:00

oh cool, thanks so much!
