😮Impressive temperature spread this morning over the Marin Headlands. ~40°F difference in roughly one mile and 1,000 feet. These large gradients are rather common during heat events thanks to cool air (Pacific) and a marine layer. #cawx

With half the month now behind us, June 2024 is very likely to be the warmest June on record.

It is on track to beat 2023's record by nearly 0.2C, and may represent an ominous sign that global temperatures are not falling very quickly despite the fading of El Nino conditions.

[Hannah Hagemann @hannah_hagemann]

So how bad is California's fire season so far? @jackjlee looked into the data for the @sfchronicle.

The number of acres burned this year to date stands out among the highest figures of the past three decades.

Visible imagery shows quite a bit of smoke filtering into the region from the #SiteFire up in Colusa County. Otherwise, expect increasing high clouds as we go through today and this evening. #CAwx

[Daniel Swain @Weather_West]

Two primary wildfires of interest right now in CA are #PointFire (near Healdsburg) and #PostFire near Gorman. Both remain highly active & are burning in primarily brush/grass (& smaller-scale evac orders w/both). Will discuss tomorrow during YouTube office hours. #CAwx #CAfire

[Dan Brekke @danbrekke]

Cal Fire estimates #PointFire at 1,100 acres as of 6 a.m. with 20 percent containment. Air quality impacts from wildfire smoke seen through Sonoma County well to the southeast.

Every journalist I know & most I know of do excellent work w few resources. Imagine the work we could do if we did have enough resources. How many more stories would be told. How much more power held to account. Forget competition, we need a healthy, diverse media ecosystem too.
