User:CycloneFootball71

SEMI-RETIRED

This user is no longer very active on Wikipedia.

Hello there! Previously, I was known as Weatherman27, but now I am known as CycloneFootball71. I am a meteorologist, skywarn spotter, and CoCoRaHS reporter who studies and has experienced all sorts of weather-related events, from tropical cyclones to blizzards, and I seek knowledge and understanding of these great forces of nature. I have a lot of knowledge on tropical cyclones and general weather events, even some rare "anomalies," that have occurred, plus have done extensive studies on them and been through many. I continue to expand my knowledge as well, and make any edits necessary so that other users get that same knowledge as well. I hope to one day become a Wikipedia administrator, and become a great editor.

Besides weather, I am an avid football player, and my best positions that I played(and currently play) is at Offensive Center or at Defensive Nose-guard, ( I am 6'4", and 260", so I am cut out perfectly for those positions :D) In the High school level I got an award known locally as the "Earned Never Given" award, only given to players who made huge improvements, took all opportunities to get better, and really stood out from the rest of the team. I also made 1st-team, all league player multiple times in football. I also have received other awards, and got many patches and letters for a Letterman Jacket. Other than football, I can play Violin, and electric bass guitar. I also like to plant and grow trees, and have much knowledge and skill regarding the identification of a large amount of trees here in North America. I also like to workout, and I commonly do weightlifting. I enjoy listening to music, especially of older bands from the 80's and the 90's. I also am really good at geography, and I know directions and I know many major geographical features and their specifics as well. Those are just some of my many hobbies/facts about me.

I try to help as much as I can on Wikipedia, so for any edits that I do, please assume good faith. Also, please let me know if I am rude to other users as I try to be as kind as possible, and I always 100% try to treat others with the utmost respect. Also, please don't judge me based on who I support or what I may believe in, judge me based on my edits and how I treat others. I promise that I am a good person and won't judge anyone as I respect differences and different views on events or things that are sensitive topics, and I hope others won't judge me for not always having the same views. If you have a problem with me or what I personally believe in, you can say something on my talk page and we will discuss it in an adult manner. I am just here to help make Wikipedia a better place, and, if you don't accept that, I would once again be more than willing to talk it out, so that we both can understand each other's reasoning for certain events, feelings, or opinions.

I do have a second account, which is CyclonicFootball71 (talk · contribs), however I do not use that account for editing, and instead have created it so that the username may not be used to impersonate me.

So, that is who I am. I don't have much to say here, other than to have fun editing! Thanks - 🌀Cyclone Football71🏈 |sandbox

Please don't go. I know that you've been through a lot recently and that you've come under a tremendous amount of stress, but please reconsider. :( I understand that you may want to step away, given everything that's happening in your life, but you don't have to call it quits.
