Australiaβs worst heatwave since black summer made five times more likely by global heating, analysis finds
Line graph time series of daily mean Arctic sea ice volume for each year from 1979 to 2025 using shades of red, white and blue. A seasonal cycle is shown with thicker ice in late winter and thinner ice in late summer. A long-term decreasing trend is also visible. Data is from PIOMAS v2.1.
The total volume of #Arctic sea ice has been at or near record low levels for every day since late October.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.
Happy heated seats in the morning, A/C in the afternoon season to all those who celebrate! π₯Άπ₯΅ #September
Unreal match!! ππ¨π¦
A Delta flight experienced Extreme Turbulence over Wyoming on 30 July, injuring 25 and causing a diversion to Minneapolis. AI suggested that one factor may have the presence of the ITCZ. Over Wyoming. We had questions... cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/satellite-bl...
Crescent city river gauge record
Just to illustrate how long waves from a #tsunami can keep going, this is a tide gauge record from Crescent City CA (known for its sensitivity to tsunami waves due to bathymetric and resonance effects) showing significant wave activity still continues 24+ hours after their first arrival. π§ͺβοΈ
Can confirm. I bought a new Tory Burch on a whim and they gave me champagne to drink while I was paying π₯πΈπ
A study confirms what we have long argued: the spectacular Atlantic 'cold blob' is the result of a slowing of the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC, which transports warm waters into that region. That's the only part of Earth that resisted #globalwarming. π

Emergency shelters for wildlife evacuees.
As you may be aware, northern Saskatchewan and Manitoba are being evacuated because of wild fires. Latest is La Ronge. My rez, Beardyβs & Okemasis, under its RezCross has spots available. A Cree welcoming. If you care, or know folks seeking a place, do share! Our informationβ¦
Can't believe it's been a whole year since I made this. Thank you to everyone who's shared what it means to them seeing Pride represented with images from near and far, all across the universe. The original page was taken down, but can still be found on archive.org: web.archive.org/web/20250129...

It's been a pleasure to coordinate #ESOTC2024, working with ~100 scientists to analyse the data and tell the story of Europe's climate in 2024 ππ§βοΈπ₯
#ESOTC2024 reports the most widespread flooding in Europe since 2013, affecting at least 413K people and contributing to an estimated β¬18 billion in damage caused by extreme weather events. 30% of rivers exceeded the high flood threshold, 12% exceeded the severe flood threshold. bit.ly/42t0unK
I just attended a conference in the US. We had one speaker detained and two others turned away at the border.
Stealing their "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence" quote. Perfect.
A very interesting read re: the dire wolf hoopla, to this non-genomicist.
Also realizing how much I've missed educated scientific discourse. Well done π
"More than 50 Indigenous communities [in Canada] β with a total population of 56,000 people β depend on about 6,000km of winter roads."
..and those roads are disappearing because of climate change.

Couldnβt go to the First Ministers meeting, but can sit down with Breitbart and do a fundraiser with Ben Shapiro. But at least we now know whose side sheβs on and itβs not Canadaβs

Call me old fashioned, but I donβt think provincial leaders should be working with hostile foreign govts to interfere in a federal election to get their preferred party elected whose βperspective would be very much in sync with, I thinkβ¦the new direction in Americaβ
This is traitorous stuff.
Itβs unreal - the DOD deleted its page for Charles Calvin Rodgers, a Medal of Honor recipient who was wounded three times while defending against three assaults on his base in Vietnam. Now the URL includes βDEI Medal of Honor.β Thereβs something about Rodgers I donβt even have to tell you
A tweet from NWS Lubbock saying "Check out this #GOESEast true color image of the storm system that moved across the Great Plains yesterday. It was particularly intense, with a rare scorpion-tail appearance (sting jet), and produced very high winds, a dust storm, severe storms, and significant wildfires" with an accompanying satellite image of a storm with a lot of dust entrained in it.
This is a plea for people to stop misusing 'sting jet'
A somewhat pointy end to an occluded front is not a 'sting jet'
Strong winds equatorward of the low centre are not a 'sting jet'
It's a specific phenomenon with a specific definition
