Regional climate centres (RCC) across Africa are vital communicators of hydrometeorological early warnings. In our latest climate services study, https://t.co/EqSYbwrt56, we show the current status of services provided by the Central African RCC. 🌍🌧️

Final @UK_CEH talk at @GEWEX_WCRP ! @bl_harris showing how the observed vegetation can be used to better predict risk to flash drought. 🛰️🌳🏜️

2-h poster sessions with beer& sake are a #GEWEX-OSC highlight! Great seeing our authors, like @JoshTalib, who published on soil moisture-atmosphere feedbacks in the Tibetan Plateau with us https://t.co/RXqvzY6zh7. Excited about his new research interests. Good job! @GEWEX_WCRP

Rising temperatures will have profound consequences on African health in particular an increased in vector-borne diseases.

[Met Office Storms @metofficestorms]

Although landfall is not expected, #Ialy is passing closer to the coast of Kenya than any previous tropical storm in the historical record whilst on its unusual track northwards.

Our paper on running the Liverpool Malaria Model with a convection permitting Met Office Unified Model is out. @MetOffice_Sci @MalariaNoMore @livuninews @LivUni_EnvSci @WHO https://t.co/d2QFH8uCNR

(5) Finally, as climate and malaria modelling communities make huge advances through increased computational resource and AI, we must not forget to use both community efforts to ensure the best predictions are used to support policy planning and health decision-making.

How does high-resolution atmospheric modelling with a better simulated rainfall impact predictions of present and future malaria?

(4) Hence, when we compare the effect of climate change on malaria we get different results when using parameterised or explicit convection. For model with high sensitivity to temp, temperature changes increase malaria over highlands. Meanwhile in VECTRI, rainfall changes is key;
