Welcome to my page!

I have a big interest in all things weather. I also am a big fan of things like First-person shooter games, more simple 2D games (such as Terraria and The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth), as well as plenty of music genres, with rap being my most favorite. In the past year (as of writing in September 2023), I've gotten way into the Silent Hill series, as well as the Resident Evil games (Ethan Winters my beloved). Right now, I'm absolutely loving Starfield, even though half the internet seems to hate it sadly.

I mainly edit tropical cyclone pages, though if there is a big event somewhere else the world of severe weather, I might be on there! My interest is periodic, and comes about really when any large event is going on. If none are happening, I'm mostly dormant. I am currently in college for Culinary arts as well, so my time is limited.

I’m also Transgender, and go by she/her! :3

My History[edit]

My time on here started back in May 2019. I started my editing with Machine Gun Kelly's Hotel Diablo (Ironically, I don't like him anymore). After going on a hiatus for almost a year due not having much interest in editing, I decided to come back to Wikipedia after Hurricane Isaias tore through the state I live in, New Jersey, as a tropical storm in August 2020. In fact, before that storm, I didn't really think of researching weather as much as I have been doing in more recent times. I guess having a tropical storm rip through your state sparks that interest!

I have edited several tropical cyclone pages, including Hurricane Teddy, Typhoon Goni, Hurricane Eta, among many others, though most of the edits from this time were just small additions. I plan to continue contributing! I like to add as much as I can from a source, adding usually a thousand or more bytes to really squeeze out any information that may have not been presented yet in an article; to a limit of course.

Storms[edit]

I have lived through, as far as I can remember:

  • Hurricane Irene - 2011. From what I can recall, damage wasn't that bad. I remember power being out for probably a day or two. Overall, not that bad.
  • Hurricane Sandy - 2012. A lot, lot of damage. Example: I remember a large trunk of a tree that fell right into the middle of a house. It wasn't a pretty sight. 2 weeks no power. Had to resort to a lucky find of a restaurant in order to get dinner food. Was incredibly boring to sit through no power too.
  • Tropical Storm Fay - 2020. Minimal damage, like, just rain and wind. Well, that's literally what you see in a hurricane, but I'm saying "rain and wind" lightly.
  • Hurricane Isaias - 2020. About 4 days no power. Was hot and uncomfortable sleeping at night. Pretty sure our generator we got just before Sandy was on the brink of breaking.
  • Hurricane Zeta - 2020. Minimal damage, really not much I can recall.
  • December 24, 2020 - Christmas Eve had a powerful windstorm come in at night. I remember the wind blowing very hard when I was in my room, as well as severe rain. I thought damage to my house would be worse than it was - outside, I just saw tiny bits of the roof fell off, with the full roof being fine.
  • Hurricane Elsa - 2021. Skimmed NJ as a Tropical Storm. Very little, if any, damage, and all I had was just heavy rainfall for a few hours and some wind. No power outage.
  • Hurricane Henri - 2021. Just a huge amount of rain the night of August 21 with nothing after. Minimal damage, no power outage.
  • Hurricane Ida - 2021. Caused heavy winds and pouring rain specifically in the morning and night. I got an alert for a tornado emergency, however, nothing came out of it (I think it was for the TOR:E for the tornado in Mullica Hill, which I'm far away from). The worst affects I've had from a storm since Isaias.
  • October 2021 nor'easter - 2021. From what I remember, since I forgot to add it here for a while: not much. Mostly light effects with not much to say in addition.
  • July 28–29, 2021 - 2021. Had a friend over from what I recall. Extremely heavy rain and fast winds happened, some of the hardest rain I saw in a long time. No power outage though, and effects were light.
  • January 2022 North American blizzard - 2022. Just a bunch of snow, delayed opening for school that Monday. No negative effects.
  • Hurricane Ian - 2022. Just remnants (thank god), brought several days of colder weather and rain, but nothing big.
  • Hurricane Nicole - 2022. Some rain on November 11th, as well as heavy winds that night, but nothing major.

From this point on, I will name more major storms that affect me. I don't edit on here as much as 2021, and would rather not bloat this section with minor storms!
