3K followers now on the American page and a lovely little section of the speech written by the Aussies! It really does say a lot about us and what we do! π¦πΊπͺοΈ
3,000+ followers - wow, I remember when it was just our members who liked the page. We couldn't have done it without the help of my team getting the word out and recruiting about our mission, or each one of you out there who participates. All of the shares, likes, and comments help us achieve our goals. Public input is more than you all realize for growing the group. Each day we see the group getting bigger, and now we have sponsors and more opportunities. My wildest dreams could have never brought us here, and I never imagined when we started that this is where it would take us, but this is a people-powered movement, so it's all up to you!
One of our Australian members Weather Enthusiast Dylan Mckenna wrote this up about the Australian/American group, and I think it says a lot about who we are:
The United National Weather Team (UNWT) is dedicated to conducting in-depth research on thunderstorms, with a focus on documenting and tracking tornadoes, utilizing Australia's first technology to measure and document hailstones, and conducting post-event analysis to comprehensively assess tornado and storm damage. Our team comprises trained and experienced personnel who are passionate and dedicated to researching and documenting severe weather phenomena, particularly in regions prone to intense thunderstorm activity, such as eastern Queensland and northern New South Wales.
Furthermore, our mission includes a thorough examination of bushfire behavior and activity during fire seasons, leveraging the expertise of our well-equipped and trained personnel with a deep understanding of firefighting techniques and fire behavior. We are also committed to providing in-depth analysis of cyclones and floods, aiming to provide valuable insights into these events and their impacts, previously unknown to the Australian population.
In addition to our research endeavors, we have assembled skilled civilian rescue crews who will accompany our research personnel, offering vital support during weather-related disasters and incidents. This collaborative effort ensures a rapid and effective response to any potential emergencies, reaching individuals in need faster than traditional emergency services can, if and when necessary.
Our unwavering dedication to safety and research excellence drives our pursuit of a better understanding of weather phenomena and the enhancement of disaster response strategies. No matter where we are in the world, the mission remains the same. So, I raise a toast to you, the public, for getting us this far, and we have a lot more work to do around the world. If you'd like to help us, consider going to our website and donating or becoming a member of the team! Cheers to UNWT, whether here or abroad!
