How much did forecasts tell us about the Europe floods this summer? And why were so many lives lost?
@UniRdg_water@UniRdg_GES prof @hancloke chats to @jimalkhalili on The Life Scientific tomorrow on @BBCRadio4 at 9am

Join us at @FestOfTomorrow!
The @UniRdg_water team will be showcasing the science behind managing floods and giving visitors the chance to try their hand at flood prediction & risk management. Find @UniRdg_GES@hancloke@Jess_n1 in the Our World Zone.

On the buses for today’s #PoliticsSouth! Will the rise from £2 to £3 put people off? We also discuss assisted dying and the floods we are getting - could we get a big one like Spain?
Guess who has passed their training 🥳 and is now the most recent recruit to the army of weather observers who have recorded data at exactly 9am every morning at the @UniofReading since 1908 🌡️ 🌧️

🌍 #ShowYourStripes and turn climate conversations into action.
📈 2023 was the warmest year on record globally. Extreme weather events continue to be seen more frequently around the world. Never has the need to address climate change been more urgent.
Congratulations 🥂 to Dr @JoyOmmer on the successful defence of her PhD on flood preparedness and no regrets 🌊
& thankyou to examiners @sforrest1 & @liz_stephens
I won the Research for a Better World competition at the Doctoral Research Conference #PhdConf2024 for my work and engagement on Early Warning Systems for extreme weather events. A special thanks to my supervisors @hancloke & @Jess_n1
🌍 In the Research for a Better World (Global) category @jeff_hydromet presents his talk 'Floods without borders' and discusses what lessons can be learned from the European disaster of 2021 #UoRPhDConf
