New machine learning paper on the use of crowdsourced observations and high-resolution land cover to downscale and bias correct kilometre-scale operational air temperature forecasts to hectometre scale in urban areas. https://t.co/VfC7Mhjj2O

To be fair, there's a few places that are bloody hot today, like Geraldton topping out at 47.7 °C. https://t.co/gxGSBjGNLN

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

Perth having a hot one today. https://t.co/AzP7sPsqn2

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

And a hot summer. https://t.co/5BNTJAxRNv

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

@Ben_Domensino Yep, similar result using Feb daily averages (max and min). From https://t.co/AzP7sPsqn2

@DanielArgueso well, we did steal the idea from you! thanks!

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

@OscarBrousse @jimjam_slam @stefancontracto Thanks for the feedback! Will fix this and add @The3ndlessriver's Bochum site.

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

This week our refreshed site https://t.co/XuAUOFrEyd went live!

Greatly expanded locations list, new clickable map, and more features to come in coming months. Check it out, feedback welcome.

With @jimjam_slam & @stefancontracto.

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

Also, pleased to highlight two international additions by colleagues:

- Spain: https://t.co/gjbu3saTyS by @DanielArgueso
- Germany: https://t.co/cuxdyc2TRO by @The3ndlessriver

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

For comparison, old site is at https://t.co/n1JeiKXo39

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

@stefancontracto @jimjam_slam Most of our updates are on the backend, enabling us to scale to many sites. User feedback on front-end changes, and feature requests, very welcome: https://t.co/XuAUOFrEyd

As a comparison, the old site is at https://t.co/n1JeiKXo39

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

@stefancontracto @jimjam_slam Yep, and a funky new clickable map!

Piggy backing on the #AMOS2024 conference, I wanted to announce that https://t.co/xOPPAeZjqc has just had a major refresh, with all new look and many stations all across Australia. Your one stop shop for real time climate outlook. @AMOSupdates

@William_Lidberg Rioxarray combines the powers of xarray with rasterio. Great reprojection capabilities.

[UNSW Climate Change Research Centre @ccrc_unsw]

PhD Student Marzie Naserikia and coauthors recently published a paper in @SciTotEnv on the role of urban form and seasonality in land surface and air temperature dynamics.

Check out the graphical abstract, plus the thread for key findings and links.

Congrats to all involved!

@NeginNazarian We are lucky in Australia that energy companies must make their substation data publicly available, not the case for most places. Minute-by-minute temperature data from Bureau of Meteorology.

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

Exploring electricity demand vs temperature at suburb level over 24hrs: on the left a classic "V" response in a suburb with large residential %, little weekend difference. On right large industrial %, no V, large weekend difference. In middle, large commercial %, mixed response.

[Mathew Lipson @MatLipson]

After a very warm overnight minimum in Sydney (20.5 C) average temp for today is already in the top 98th % for this time of year, and its not yet 9am.
