stepped outside for one second, it is bad out there guys. Like visiting a city dump where they still burn garbage – smells like plastic and smoldering diapers. A real potpourri of disgusting. Thanks to Mitch McConnell and his buddies at Exxon, elsewhere, this is going to be a new normal #AQI #Chicago #weather #climateChange #wildfire
Just received a text from a cousin who is married to the daughter of the company’s taxi operations manager at central station in the capital city of Kualait (in Central Parkis- something) that #NASA has discussed with the College of Colleagues of Councillors in Conjunction with the taxi service staff about the new distribution system discovered the disruption: that it is hotter than the heavens above ☝️👆 right now.
My SIL is at a church youth camp near Mount Hood and sent me a video of her hiking through a thunderstorm in the woods yesterday. I inquired further and she told me the leaders didn't know it was going to storm.
I reached out to our bishop and we're going to put together a workshop so that the adult leaders can be empowered to know what to look for to avoid this in the future rather than relying on a simple phone weather app.
I don't fault people for not knowing, but now that I know it's a problem I feel like it's my responsibility as a meteorologist to help improve the situation. For now they're proactively texting me asking for updates through the end of the campout. Glad to see they're doing what they can.

Well, it's gonna be another #oppressive #summer day. Supposed to be 87*F. It's currently 78*F with a 70*F dew point and relative humidity at 70%. Also, due to the Canadian wildfires, the air is saturated with a thick and moist #haze.
I have a #trail #race later this evening. Hopefully the #weather eases up for it.
There is an extreme weather alert for this afternoon.
The current temperature is 38°C, and record-breaking winds of up to 160 km/h and potentially destructive hail are expected later today.
I'm going to cram all my outdoor activities into the next two hours, and then lock myself inside the oven I call home.

My #weather forecast has been basically crazy for months, maybe a year. It changes dramatically, suddenly, throughout the day, and going up to a week ahead, forget it. I really can't plan well when it comes to watering the flowers & garden. If I think we're getting rain and don't water, the forecast is wrong. If I think it'll be dry and I water, later a thunderstorm will drop an inch.

It is over 110.2 °F or 43.4°C degrees right now in faaaar Northeastern Montana, near the Canadian border. Relative humidity is at 7 percent and winds are gusting at 27 km/hr or 17 mph. These ingredients coalesce into a major wildfire risk.
It's 80.3 °F or 26.9 °C right now on the Arctic Sea, Gwichin land on what some maps call the "Northern Territories" of Canada.

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.

We're both tired. On my way home, I drove through pea-sized hail briefly. Some on and off rain, making it muggy.
Have a good evening and a great weekend, everyone.
