I suspect the #weather is more chaotic¹ in the UK than on mainland Europe, and that makes forecasts less reliable here than there. I look at the BBC Weather app every morning; today's forecast is more often right than wrong, tomorrow's is a hint about what may possibly happen, and anything further out than that is science fiction. During this year's drought, the forecast has repeatedly promised rain a few days away, and it's hardly ever materialised.

¹ I'm using the word #chaos in its scientific sense, where a small perturbation in the state of a system causes large changes in its state later on. Since we can never measure the current state with perfect accuracy, detailed forecasts rapidly degenerate into noise as you get further out. The fabled #ButterflyEffect refers to chaos in this sense.

As seen from my house, a pyrocumulus cloud over the Hawk Fire on Peavine Mountain north of Reno, Nevada, earlier today. According to Zeke on The Lookout YouTube channel, the fire has gotten into Hidden Hills (Seneca Dr / Chippewa Ave) & has jumped US395 into an older part of Stead (Peppermint Dr). Homes are being lost. 😢

Risk of #weather data sabotage is rising
#PredictionMarkets and a move toward #AI forecasting are starting to put accuracy of weather predictions at risk
Temptation to manipulate weather data to get an edge in markets, combined with move to data-driven AI weather forecasting, puts accuracy of weather predictions at risk. These risks are relatively manageable for now, but foresee scenarios where they snowball into far bigger, more systemic problems.

Regardless of the forecast, it is still sunshine, blue sky, and 33°C outside. I'm starting to think these forecasts are for a parallel universe where they have addressed climate change.

Cannot believe I'm disappointed we have nice hot summer weather, and I'm hoping for rain. We're desperate for some relief.

Saturday night is the only night where I'm allowed to water the lawn and the flowers. I left the system turned on for tonight, because I don't believe we'll actually get rain.

Well, it looks like it's going to be another crazy morning with #thunderstorms developing all around me. The cell to the south of me is moving north eastbound so I suspect it'll be overhead shortly. #Lightning strikes right under those yellow blobs. I wouldn't mind so much if there was some rain that went with them, but the rain that's falling isn't even enough to wet my deck, let alone make puddles. #WildFires #weather #wx

There's another thunderstorm coming here in KC tonight.

My adopted grandma gave me some calming pheromone spray to try on Sammy, which I hope will help him with his fear of the boom booms. (And a cute little bee bandana to spray it on.)

The boat has its own electric meter, provided by the marina.

The marina office sells £10 prepay cards, which buy 30.30 kilowatts. That's £0.33 per kilowatt, £0.07 more than the average UK price.

In one day, the meter used 0.78kW, so roughly £2 per week. This will increase once I plug in the dehumidifier and the two electric heaters that keep the boat's plumbing from freezing.

been investigating dew point and humidex (instead of going to bed). The humidex is based on the dewpoint via a non-linear formula involving the vapour pressure, but according to the table at the bottom of the wikipedia page linked below, there seems to be a pretty simple relationship between d = (humidex minus actual) and dew point:

```
d dew point
1 10
2 11 or 12
3 13 or 14
4 15
5 16 or 17
6 18
7 19
8 20 or 21
9 22
10 23
11 24
12 25
```

Example: tomorrow afternoon it's forecast to be 26 humidex 32, a difference of 6 degrees, so a dew point of 18.

The same relationship works the other way around: right now here it's 20 with a dew point of 15. This corresponds to a d of 4 degrees, so the humidex is 20 + 4 = 24.

It's almost 8:30pm here and it's still 88°F with a feels like temperature of 100°F with the humidity. That might be the worst part of these heat domes in our area IMO. No relief at any point of the day from the relentless humidity is so draining, at least for me it is. 🥵
