While eastern US states are still reeling from the devastation left by Hurricane Helene, Hurricane Milton, which is looking to be even *more* powerful, is quickly approaching.

Our episode w/ Dr. Fredi Otto breaks down how climate change is impacting the risk of extreme weather.

I'm gonna explain to y'all why Britain considers 78°F/25°C hot. I know hot because I grew up in Texas and spent half my life in Las Vegas. So I am absolutely qualified to explain this to the rest of you who laugh at UK "heat waves".

As part of my PhD, I've been looking through old whaling catch data from the Southern Ocean. It's easy to forget just how extreme whaling actually was and a few things I read reminded me of the severity of this global slaughter 1/n

Who is WWA? How does WWA select extreme weather events to study? Why are WWA studies performed rapidly? Why do WWA studies look at vulnerability and exposure?

Glad you asked!

These questions and many more are answered on our new FAQs webpage.

Climate change is a total gamechanger for heatwaves.

This animation breaks down our recent study on the late April heatwave that impacted Spain, Portugal, Morocco, and Algeria, highlighting how much hotter and more likely climate change made the event.
