Sadly having to #ban @masto.globaleas.org because some [redacted] thought it's a good idea to spam the fediverse with dozens of differently named bots #iembot #wtaf #learntoNOTspam #jfc

IF YOU ARE IN AN AREA OF RISK OF TORNADOES tonight, in addition to having a weather radio and other ways of getting info, follow the #IEMBOT office for your location. Northern #Indiana is @iembot_iwx, #Chicago is @iembot_lot, #Ohio is @iembot_iln (among others) #INwx #ILwx #OHwx

@David you might talk to @AE4WX @ai6yr about weather feeds for Mastodon.

We arranged e.g. to have @nwsdetroit_bot have a bot account at a2mi.social and it's (unofficially) feeding in weather info for SE Michigan.

There are also feeds from IEM that you can find with #iembot

Not perfect yet / would of course prefer official #NWS feeds into Mastodon but you start somewhere / #wx

The completed list of IEM Weather Bots has been updated. It also includes the list of State weather watch/warning/advisory bots that are active at this time.
#IEMBOT #WeatherBot #Weather @ai6yr

Aha, figured out how to get National Weather Service issued text products from IEM on here. Better than tweet scraping. Just put one up for testing at @iembotctp #NWS #IEMBOT #WX #WxToot #WxMastodon #Weather (yeah, a bit bot happy out here, LOL)
