FLASH Weather

.@FLASHWeather_ would’ve had direct impact on the outcomes of massive games yesterday in both the SEC and ACC. Very likely, Flash would’ve prevented a premature delay in the UNC/Clemson game, leading to the game coming to a conclusion prior to the actual delay needed over 30-45Mins later. In Tuscaloosa, Flash showed that the dying cell to the east of Bryant-Denny would’ve had ZERO safety impacts to the players and fans in attendance. Instead we got an another pointless delay and another restart of the archaic 30 minute rule. College football is a multi-billion dollar industry and we are using technology and methods from the 80s/90s to make crucial decisions that not only impact safety, but the outcomes of games that are deciding who will be intention for conference titles and college football playoff births. It’s ridiculous. Case and point, is @espn serious with the visuals they use on screen? This can all be made exponentially more efficient, but conferences and schools have no ability to think outside the box when it comes to be proactive instead of reactive with the weather… @GregSankey @SEC @ESPNCFB @JamesBryantWX @JoshPateCFB @BudElliott3

With both Bama/FSU and Clemson/UNC in lightning delays as well as Jordan Hare getting hit hard ahead of Auburn/Florida, there is no better App to have to track and predict lightning during CFB season than @FLASHWeather_. @JamesBryantWX @JoshPateCFB @ESPNCFB

According to @FLASHWeatherAI for Aronimink, the wind will continue to whip this afternoon for the @PGAChampionship. In fact, it won’t peak until around 6PM local with gusts topping out at 20-25MPH

If they had @FLASHWeatherAI this wouldn’t have been an issue. Lightning notifications clearly sent to all clientele and properties throughout the Houston Metro at least an hour prior to the storm. Plenty of time for proactive decision making and communication…
