i’m gonna take this chance to reiterate what i’ve said before. Gay people: your family, friends, and neighbors do not give a fuck about your rights. They think it’s annoying and kind of pushy when you bring it up. They miss when it wasn’t something they had to acknowledge.

Las Vegas high temperature has hit 118° degrees. Preliminarily this set the all-time record high. #nvwx

Incredible week learning about #Paleoclimate and #IceCore science with @AMSeducation! Thank you @COLDEX_STC and @OregonState for your fantastic facilities and thanks to @TripleVortex and the AMS team for another outstanding workshop.

The current forecast for Pittsburgh keeps overnight lows >=70F through Sunday. There has never been a 6 day or greater run of lows that warm in the month of June over the period of record (154 years).

Record-breaking #heat is forecast to expand from the Midwest and Great Lakes to the Northeast this week, potentially lingering through early next week. The duration of this heat wave is notable and potentially the longest experienced in decades for some locations.

For those asking for a map of all our tornadoes so far this year:

Apparently new Ohio State President Ted Carter ignored the recommendations of his own Commencement Speaker Advisory Committee to pick an unknown crypto grifter. Carter sits on the board of a bitcoin mining company. rooster.info/p/ohio-states-…

Tropical deep convection is one of the leading sources of uncertainty in future projections of the Earth’s temperature. There are uncertainties in the radiative response of convective clouds, which can have negative or positive radiative effects. climate.gov/news-features/…

The ocean says it's June 3 in the tropical Atlantic. ⏰ Anomalies this large aren't supposed to happen, and certainly not for 10 consecutive months with no end in sight. bmcnoldy.earth.miami.edu/tropics/ohc/

This is irresponsible meteorology, regardless of how the article couches the approach. There is no "scoop." This far out, climatology is still the best forecast.

It’s been 50 years since the first attempt to forecast the El Niño/Southern Oscillation. The initial prediction was incorrect, but it marked the beginning of a journey toward understanding and predicting one of Earth’s most influential climate phenomena. climate.gov/news-features/…

Ever wonder how much supercells contribute to U.S. hydroclimate? Paper by @Zeebwx and @niu_wcs group tackles this question and projects future changes in this relatively small, but potent, storm type. Full article: shorturl.at/suzM4 #supercell #ClimateChange

Using ThreadEx stations with 100+ years of data, here's a map of stations that tied or broke their maximum February record highs yesterday & today. Breaking a 100+ year *monthly* record is remarkable on its own... by doing so by **over 5 degrees** is even more so!
