day 7 on our ride to Copenhagen started with us smugly waiting for the ferry early, only to realize that there is no service till May 1st. so we ended up on a train hopping over the water and shaving 40kms off our ride which my legs needed after yesterday's battle with the wind. Wind was a manageable 20km/h today but often as a head wind. beautiful riding along the east coast of Sjealland Island protected from the norwester made for a very pleasant and unexpectedly quick day

Can you tell me what kind of cloud this is?

Good morning tooters. Sleeping super soundly & longer after daylight savings end, it does help that it’s a little cooler as well. A nice 12c when I got up today & it’s beautiful & sunny outside heading to 25c.
I could go swimming today, but the exercise class I did yesterday involved a fair bit of shoulder work so I think I’m just going to take myself off for a walk.
Easter 🐣 weekend was good fun. Really enjoyed my family time with all the grandkids on Sunday, my youngest granddaughter gifted me a garden ornament, it’s very bright & a little different & it made me laugh. It is of course now in the garden in a pot that will produce orange flowers after winter. Yesterday I just had a quiet day just going to my sisters place to say goodbye to her visitors & came home with a cooked chook as they’d bought too many & a sweet potato that is sprouting, looks awesome - I’d mentioned I was looking for one & I hope I can keep it going until springtime to plant out the slips.
I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend & are feeling refreshed, take care out there 🌻. #Weather #Family #Exercise #SweetPotato

day 6 to Copenhagen: one of the most intense biking days I've ever had. started off with ferry across to Denmark followed by 70kms of 40km/h+ constant winds with 60-70km/h gusts. we were literally riding on a 30 degree angle at times to not be blown off the road. maybe a bit dangerous tbh. didn't take many photos cause was just hanging on

Another big storm is approaching Hawaii so I really hope the roofer who said he was coming out tomorrow to fix a leak follows through. The guy last week did not...

the weather today has been exhausting, but it reminded me of two good things: 'never turn your back on mother earth' by sparks & that i drew russell a couple of years ago.

As we hunker down under Storm Dave you might well wonder where Spring has gone! This messiness of seasonal change emphasises the way we tend to think about life and the problems that arise when things don't fit into prescribed categories. The old idea of borrowing days helps us navigate this 'untidyness' in a a different way.

Sunday.

It was raining, gently, but it`s slowing down and the sky is brightening. By a quarter past nine the Met. Office says it will have passed.

There is a market today, in Ruislip, food and artisanal crafts, that starts at ten, so master nipper and I will head out there, on the bus, about half past nine.

Friday #weather analysis

A deep low is moving into the Northern Plains this morning after having brought some (relatively) low elevation snow to the Pacific Northwest yesterday.

I'm excited for this map, which adds sounding data from my company on top of the traditional balloons. Today we got additional soundings from the Atlantic, Alaska, Yukon, and Rockies.

Alt...

A 500 mb analysis showing lows in Alaska, Wyoming, and Greenland with a strong high near Bermuda.

Active GYE weather day upper low moving thru centered over YNP, just S of Beartooth Front. As such, very tight weather window hike up Hellroaring Rd. from Rock Crk. Cyn 2230m. 7C windy there getting colder. Something on wheels yest. made it to 2600m, crazy. Made it easy for us, but no further. Too deep/soft. Wind ❄️ starting. First ⚡️️ of season in town. Early, as to be expected in the new regime. Cooler overall tho next few weeks looks like. #climate #hiking #dogs #montana #weather

Alt...

looking up to 3050m Hellroaring Plateau. around -1C here 2550m.

Alt...

where we all turned back 2600m. not quite to the bridge in this side gulch off Rock Crk Cyn.

Alt...

We have some of the best snowpack in the West which is not saying much. our lower elevations below 2400m never built one up over the winter. still we are fortunate compared to further S. cooler pattern generally next week plus above 40N w few weak systems. S of that, dire.

Alt...

had to keep fast pace up w this tight window. get caught in whiteout up here would not be pleasant. 2530m here.

Weather forecasting has gotten a big boost from machine learning. How that translates into what users see can vary.

Kids get messy learning flood solutions in Austin

Students at Wayside Real Learning Academy are learning about flooding in a fun, unique, and quite messy way - by building their own solutions to a problem Central Texas has always had.

Tornado touches down in Giddings, causing damage across Lee County

A confirmed EF-0 tornado touched down in portions of Lee County earlier Thursday as a line of strong thunderstorms moved through Central Texas.

Last night's storm

Night scene of a cityscape under a moody, overcast sky. Streetlights illuminate the roads, and buildings are partially lit, creating a calm atmosphere.

Stats from the insane recent heat wave as it passed through Las Vegas:

Old record monthly high for March: 93°F
New record monthly high for March: 98°F

Old mark for consecutive days at record highs: 7
New mark for consecutive days at record highs: 12

Not only was this the hottest March on record, it would also qualify as the hottest ever April. 👀

This wasn't a "normal" heat wave. The fact we stayed at 20-25°F above average for so long is beyond nuts! We're screwed.

Screenshot of a local Vegas news' weather report for March 2026. A meteorologist is standing next to a calendar-style grid of the month's daily high temperatures. Of the 31 days, 1 was below average, 2 at average, 15 above average, plus 13 more in record territory. The overall temp for the month was 12.2° F hotter than normal.

Something very strange is happening to tornadoes across the U.S. And scientists are baffled.

From @sciencefocus: "After another explosive start to tornado season, twisters are cropping up in unexpected places – and the big picture isn’t looking any clearer."
