Why Are My Weather Posts Missing From Facebook.

Hello everyone. I just wanted to let you know that my Facebook page was shut down without any warning by Facebook this past Saturday, June 8th. All I was told was that I had violated their community standards. I don't know what triggered that; they didn't tell me. I was told this may be permanent or for six months.
My guess is that it may be because I posted several comments and articles from my Substack page about the riots in LA, and that must have triggered/angered someone, and they complained, thus Facebook shut me down. I don't know this as fact, though. I have appealed this decision, and I'm still waiting for their reply. I have read on X that this has happened to other Facebook users posting about the LA riots as well.
I always share my weather blog posts (that I post here) on my Facebook page and my X page. This included over twelve different New Mexico and West Texas Facebook Community sites. So there are thousands of you out there (based on my views and shares of those posts) who will no longer see those posts. My Facebook page may or may not be restored.
This is another good reason (as the National Weather Service often reminds us) to have multiple ways of receiving severe weather alerts when severe weather threatens your location. My weather web page is one of those ways, and I really appreciate all of you who have and still do use it. Thank you so much!!!
If my Facebook page is restored, I will continue to share my weather blog posts and some of the NWS Watches and Warnings...as I have been doing for years now.

Damaging T-Storm Wind Gusts Sunday Afternoon - Excessive Heat Warnings & Heat Advisories For Tuesday.

June 6, 2025.
Supercell Thunderstorm.
Looking Northeast From East Of Tatum, NM. 

Excessive Heat Warnings & Heat Advisories For Tuesday.

A line of severe thunderstorms moved southeast off the east slopes of the Sacramento and Guadalupe mountains Sunday afternoon and onto the southeastern plains. The Roswell Airport ASOS clocked a peak wind gust of 67 mph, and the Artesia Airport AWOS 67 mph.

A  Personal Weather Station (PWS) located in Otis, 7 miles southeast of Carlsbad, clocked a severe thunderstorm wind gust to 69 mph.

A Personal Weather Station (PWS) located on St. Hwy 360 southeast of Loco Hills reported a peak wind gust of 62 mph during yesterday afternoon's line of severe thunderstorms.

I received an unconfirmed report of 10 telephone poles blown down in the Cottonwood area north of Artesia, but I have been unable to pinpoint the location of the event. 

Radar indicated that nearly 2.50" of rain fell just south of US Hwy 70 northeast of Roswell. Nearly 1.50" was indicated northeast of Dunken in southwest Chaves County, west of Seven Rivers, and just west of the Carlsbad Caverns Visitor Center.

Latest forecast models call for high temps in the Pecos Valley of southeastern New Mexico to be in the 107 to 110 range on Tuesday. Slight chances for thunderstorms will reappear in our local forecasts by late next weekend, after a week of highs around 100. Summer has arrived.
