@EliotJacobson Wouldn’t you want to use 1997-2026 baseline?

[Thomas Paulson @TimmyNuetron_]

@ZLabe It would be nice to have progress tracking bar graphs of emissions overtime from humans of different countries showing progress towards net zero overtime as well as other metrics for greenhouse gas tracking and renewable implementation.

@RyanWeather @seckhardt It is surprising to me that it is the warmest August but California specifically had such a low acreage burned despite the warm winter too and early snow melt.

@ZLabe @panopticon0745 Fundraising requests from wealthy pro-science philanthropists may help. Consider starting a gofundme. What’s the cost of the report to produce?

[Thomas Paulson @TimmyNuetron_]

@Weather_West You have also shared that winters are warming faster than all other seasons, so if we have increased precipitation it might have a compounded effect as a result of the changing climate. Winter heatwaves like what we had in March could be bad.

@Weather_West @US_Stormwatch The Autumn Lane Fire just started nearby as well.

[Thomas Paulson @TimmyNuetron_]

@edgarrmcgregor It only has wet and dry seasons no climatological summer due to its proximity to the equator.

Kew Gardens recording 35.1ºC today breaks its previous May record in 1922 before this spell by NEARLY 5ºC and breaks its June maximum temperature record set in 1976 by 0.5ºC - this also beats the previous May UK maximum record by OVER 2ºC (32.8ºC, 1922/44). An incredible anomaly

@WeatherProf When you say worst,you’re speaking about acreage burned. It’s important to consider historical context and if Florida has a history of fire suppression in the pre industrial era. The ecosystem effects of these fire might be beneficial if it fits into the established fire regime.

Fire season off to a very very early start. Don't say I didn't warn you...#SpringsFire

@BernieSanders There are huge crowds, reportedly 9 million Americans, protesting against Trump. Yes, he doesn't deserve to be president of the country. He is a warmonger.

[Brody Cowing @Brody_wx]

Unfortunately, global models are seemingly trending towards lower precipitation totals heading into next week across the Southwest. Hopefully this reverses course.

Still- any precipitation at all is highly welcomed.

A very dry pattern will likely ensue after next week.

[Jeff Berardelli @WeatherProf]

The unprecedented #heatwave really brought out the cognitive dissonance among those who try desperately to self deceive on climate change. The amount I heard: “But Alaska and Canada is cold” was incessant. Turns out record heat outnumbered record cold 37 to 1.

[Daniel Swain @Weather_West]

Another day, another sequence of monthly record-breaking March heat across portions of 8 Western U.S. states. Note: some of these monthly "records" might not technically be such anymore following even more extreme record-shattering heat in the same locations...just last week. 🫠

[Climate Watcher 🔥 @pmagn]

Folks this can't be happening 🔥👀

[Prof. Eliot Jacobson @EliotJacobson]

Do you have shifting baseline syndrome?

Yesterday's global sea-surface temperature was 5.17 standard deviations above the 1982-2011 average (first 30 years of data).

The odds of this happening by chance are about 8,500,000-to-1 against (without climate change).

[Grant Tosterud @granttosterudwx]

Today is the climatological peak of snowpack in New Mexico. This year, the snowpack peaked around February 23. We have been at the lowest snowpack on record since March 10 with rapid melt off recently due to the record heat. #NMwx #NMFire

[victor murphy @wxmanvic]

After a max temp of 102F today in Phoenix, lets put the Southwest US Heat Wave in Perspective. In 130 yrs since 1896, PHX hit exactly 100F once in the month of March. Current string of 102+ temps is FIVE (5) consecutive days. Streak ends tmrw. #azwx

[Daniel Swain @Weather_West]

Yet another day of record-shattering heat, and now it extends clear across the continental U.S. All-time monthly record high temperatures are occurring from the Desert Southwest eastward to the Mid-Atlantic today, with at least daily records being set from Pacific to Atlantic.

[Extreme Temperatures Around The World @extremetemps]

More exceptional heat pulses from West to East are expected next week with widespread 100s again in the desert areas and parts of the Central States

Not even the Dust Bowl heat waves or anything else ever seen so far can compare to this:
All climatologists are baffled.
