In an epic twist of #linguistic hilarity, the National Weather Service decides that translating weather warnings is just too much work. 🌦️ Apparently, Mother Nature's wrath will now be strictly #monolingual, because weather doesn't discriminate—only the #NWS does. 🌪️

Short Range Forecast Discussion NWS Weather Prediction Center College Park MD 410 AM EDT Wed Apr 09 2025 Valid 12Z Wed Apr 09 2025 - 12Z Fri Apr 11 2025 ...Below normal temperatures continue across the East while well above normal and near-record warmth builds across the West... ...Severe weather expected across portions of the Mid/Deep South and Tennessee Valley on Thursday... ...Pair of low pressure systems to bring increasingly unsettled weather to much of the East Thursday into Friday... In the wake of a strong cold front, temperatures across much of the Eastern U.S. will continue to run 10 to 20 degrees below normal on Wednesday. After a very chilly start with lows nearing, at, or below freezing for many, high temperatures will range from the 20s and 30s across the northern interior sections of the Northeast, to the 30s, 40s, and 50s, from the Upper Midwest to the Mid-Atlantic. Farther south, highs will top out in the 50s, 60s, and 70s from the Ohio Valley and southern Mid-Atlantic to the Southeast and Gulf Coast. Despite some likely moderation, temperatures for most of the East will remain below normal into the weekend thanks to a large and deepening upper level trough and a pair of low pressure systems. In stark contrast, a large upper level ridge will build over the Western U.S. the next few days, resulting in mainly dry weather and well above normal temperatures. In fact, high temperature anomalies across the West will climb to between 10 and 30 degrees above

#NationalWeatherService no longer translating products for non-English speakers

"The #NWS is no longer providing language translations of its products, a change that experts say could put non-English speakers at risk of missing potentially life-saving warnings about extreme weather."

Several waves of low pressure along a slow-moving frontal boundary draped from the southern Mid-Atlantic to the Southeast will be the focus for widespread showers and thunderstorms across the region on Monday. Plentiful moisture and instability along and out ahead of the front will support a moderate to heavy rain threat from portions of southeast Virginia to the central Gulf Coast. Unlike the past several days, the rain that falls on Monday should not be overly excessive; however, isolated to scattered instances of flash flooding cannot be ruled out. As a result, a targeted Slight Risk (level 2/4) of excessive rainfall was introduced for portions of southern Alabama and the far western Florida Panhandle. A Marginal Risk (level 1/4) remains in place for much of the southern Eastern Seaboard into the central Gulf Coast. The moderate to heavy rain and i
