COD_Stormchase
During our storm chase season, this account is managed by our teams out in the field and will tweet pictures, video and forecast thoughts. These tweets should be thought of as one end of a conversation with our "Nowcasters" back at NEXLAB. During the off-season, this account will tweet out information about any events pertaining to our storm chase program or useful utilities related to severe weather forecasting added to our NEXLAB website.COD_Nowcast
This account can be considered the other end of the conversation with COD_Stormchase. Under this account, our Nowcasters will relay thoughts about developing weather conditions that pertain to our storm chase group out in the field. During the off-season this account will largely remain inactive.CODMeteorology
This is our general account for the COD Meteorology Program as a whole. We will tweet live streams for storm chasing and club events, details regarding updates to our NEXLAB website, important course and scholarship information, and a variety of other tidbits related to our program.COD Meteorology - NEXLAB
This account can be regarded as the Facebook counter-part to our CODMeteorology Twitter account. The same type of content can be expected here.COD_Stormchase
During storm chases or storm chase related events, we will stream live video under this account. During chases, our streams are often either weather briefings for our target location, or live storm video.COD_Stormchase
This account is used on increasingly more rare occasions and will contain the same content as our COD_Stormchase Periscope account.CODMeteorology
Any fully editted videos pertaining to our program and it's website will be posted under this account. Examples would include tutorial videos for new features added to our website, presentations recorded during our conferences or AMS club meetings, or highlight videos from our storm chases trips.
