        Heatwaves are hotter because of climate change

        by Ci Davis

        The 34.4 Celsius temperature recorded on 26

        th

         June at the Weston Park weather station was the highest June temperature recorded in Yorkshire.  This surpassed one set in Huddersfield in 1941 by 1.3 degrees – a number so significant as to raise important questions about climate, climate change, and preparation for the future.

        Some people suggest heatwaves, where normal temperatures are exceeded for three or more consecutive days (Met Office), are a ‘normal’ feature of the weather.  They may describe ‘short-term’ hotter conditions as ‘natural’ phenomena and reject attempts to understand the recent weather with respect to climate, or certainly climate change, that I will show to intensify these events.

        The current heatwaves, which are predicted to be repeated in July and August, offer an important opportunity to discuss the differences between weather, climate, climate change and preparation for the future.

        Weather can be described as short-term atmospheric fluctuations and explains day-to-day phenomena such as rain, wind, or sunshine. In Britain, we value our variable and somewhat unpredictable weather, but we should not let that distract us from understanding what is happening to our climate.  

        Climate is the long-term weather trends, the average pattern in a region over a period of many years or decades.  Weather and climate describe similar things (heat, cold, rain), but they underline very important differences; think of being in a bad mood compared to being depressed.  When the climate trend is towards higher temperatures, there are important consequences for how people and the environment can flourish in an area.  

        Adaptation is the response to rising temperatures or increased rainfall, which is why there has been a debate in Sheffield as to whether schools should be closed or if students should attend in their PE kits rather than uniforms.  If the trend is continuing upwards, then such simple measures will be inadequate and more significant steps will have to be considered, such as the provision of air-conditioning to all schools and workplaces.  Therefore, changes in climate have considerable financial impacts as well as social costs, such as the large number of heat-related deaths across Europe this summer.

        The global climate is changing; for the past three years, it has been around 1.5 degrees higher than pre-industrial times, and this makes heatwaves hotter and more frequent.  Last week’s heatwave makes clear the need to rapidly reduce atmospheric pollution while preparing our city for considerably more heating.

                  the NOAA weather radio in the iOS App Store, developer, Christopher Coudriet, is a much improved app. i've had this app for a long time to listen to NOAA weather radio stations. Many of the links didn't work, and I was getting more disillusioned with it. The latest update brings a new feature. The app now offers synthesized Weather for stations that they don't necessarily have live feeds for. When you pick a state to browse its stations, the categories are live stations and synthesized weather stations. In the synthesized weather category, some stations that are included are stations that border on the state you are viewing. For example, Virginia has Beckley West Virginia's synthesized station. The synthesized weather gives you complete forecast and current conditions, but doesn't offer temperatures in the surrounding areas as the live weather stations do.
                  I don't know what this application cost, but to get the synthesized weather forecasts, I paid $9.95.
                  I certainly haven't checked every live link, but the ones I checked appeared to have much more reliable connections.
                  If you have this app on your phone and you haven't used it in a while, I strongly recommend you take another look at it. And if it suits your fancy, I think paying for the synthesize stations is a real plus.

                    Surely everyone panic bought fans during one of the previous two heatwaves this year? Leaving new stock to cover those who still, quite desperately, need to panic buy some more fans?

                                                  (Description In AltText)

                                                  This is a high contrast black and white photo in landscape format of three raised gantry cranes in the foreground with large and developing storm clouds in the background. Long Beach, California (2015). In the foreground are the three brilliant white giant gantry cranes (large cranes on the dockside used to load and unload shipping containers on and off container ships). One crane is in the lower left corner, its raised boom nearly reaching the top of the photo. The next crane is slightly to the left of centre, again, it's boom nearly touching the top of the image. The third crane is slightly to the right of centre and is either smaller or further away from the camera, the boom only rising to a little over the half way up level in the photo. Each crane sits on four legs extending upwards ten or more metres before there is a hinged boom that can be raised to allow a container ship to dock or lowered parallel to the ground enabling the shipping containers to be raised from the dockside, moved sideways over the ship and lowered onto or below the deck. In this photo the booms are raised upwards at an angle of about sixty degrees by means of cables fixed to the end of the booms, then to a stout 'A' frame like structure on top of the crane and then down to winches located in a large light grey corrugated enclosure stretching across under the 'A' frame. In the distance, perhaps thirty km away is a line of large developing cumulonimbus clouds. Larger on the left side and sloping downwards towards the right. The clouds are mostly a bright white with only a few grey areas adding to the contrast in the image. The clouds extend upwards from the base of the photo to just below the top. The cloud tops are, at a guess, around seven to ten thousand metres above the ground. The larger cloud on the left has the look of a giant cauliflower. Above is a clear and cloudless sky rendered jet black. The storms are viewed from the Port Of Long Beach looking east towards the San Gabriel mountains, which the storms are building up against.
