New post-doc opportunity looking at the atmospheric impacts of North Atlantic tipping points, working with me and @Len_Shaffrey at the University of Reading based in @AtmosScience at @UniRdg_Met

Closing date 3rd of November 24

@catinsight Obviously should be redoing for west of 60 or the just the Gulf to see better how the second half might go.

[Ruth Petrie @RuthPetrie1]

@catinsight Wouldn't rule it out, did this one earlier and although MDR was a bit surprised...

[National Weather Service @NWS]

You can see on this forecast for near-surface smoke concentration, the several active wildfires that are the source for the smoke many in the western portions of the nation are dealing with today/tonight. Air quality alerts are in effect for many. See if your area is impacted at https://t.co/qk3BcVP5M8

@catinsight @EricBlake12 Could the dust be interfering with the observations? Or is it some wind driven cooling maybe?

[Ruth Petrie @RuthPetrie1]

@catinsight Maybe one too many?

Have you ever imagined jumping into the eye of a hurricane? 😯 Check out this stunning image of #HurricaneBeryl captured by #Sentinel2 🛰️ on July 1, 2024 🌀 This is the earliest Category 5 hurricane observed in the Atlantic basin on record ‼️

[NOAA Satellites @NOAASatellites]

For #TimelapseTuesday, this #GeoColor imagery from @NOAA's #GOESEast satellite shows the first 4-days of #Beryl, when the storm grew from a tropical cyclone in the western Atlantic Ocean to a category 5 hurricane in the Caribbean Sea.

[Tomer Burg @burgwx]

The rare part is how the main development region (MDR) very rarely sees major hurricanes, let alone hurricanes, before August.

Beryl is expected to be only the 6th major hurricane in the MDR on record before August — doing so in *June*.

@catinsight Let’s hope it’s no where near the max!

[Jeff Berardelli @WeatherProf]

This is outlandish. The Tropical Atlantic Ocean heat content is so far above normal it’s now normal for Mid August.
The stored potential energy in the Atlantic is unreal this year, building on top of last year’s absurdity. 1/

[Ruth Petrie @RuthPetrie1]

@catinsight I think very close to same SST as when Hurricane Andrew hit

[Massimo @Rainmaker1973]

In 1890, Henri Poincaré proved the non-existence of the uniform first integral of a three-body problem and the sensitive dependence to initial conditions of its trajectories.

Yet, stable solutions to it do exist.

It’s been 50 years since the first attempt to forecast the El Niño/Southern Oscillation. The initial prediction was incorrect, but it marked the beginning of a journey toward understanding and predicting one of Earth’s most influential climate phenomena. https://t.co/ec73YaI9pc

From IPCC: "Overall, changes in the stratospheric polar vortex and Northern Annual Mode are not separable from natural variability, and so cannot be attributed to greenhouse gas forced sea ice loss."
