This morning, "extremely critical" wildfire risk designation--the highest level--has been expanded by NOAA SPC to include portions of San Diego County as well as much of LA/Ventura counties. Very strong winds & *extremely* low humidity w/record dry fuels expected. #CAwx #CAfire

Might there be some actual rain next wknd in SoCal? Yes, there's a good chance of showers! But uncertainty is high; SoCal will be on "razor's edge" between heavier downpours (& post-fire debris flow risk) and yet another strong/dry offshore wind event. Stay tuned. #CAwx #CAfire

Thank you @aznfusion for speaking to me about our new paper on hydroclimate volatility (nature.com/articles/s4301…) and how it relates to the LA wildfires
University of Texas Institute for Geophysics@UTGeophysics

The climate coincidences that whipped up the LA wildfires are only going to become more common, according to @UTGeophysics's extreme weather expert Danielle Touma. Read @DefectorMedia's interview with Danielle: defector.com/the-future-of-…

Climate change is leading to an increase in extreme rainfall events. However, in this new study, we showed that extreme flooding events won’t increase as much. Why? Plants are helping us, as always :)

See you at the @theAGU Fall Meeting! I will present a poster on Monday afternoon about how wildfires in the western United States are affected by atmosphere-ocean dynamic processes (note the title change). Looking forward to sharing ideas! #AGU24 @LamontEarth

Just dropping by to share our new perspective piece, which dives into an early career view on supporting and training scientists for interdisciplinary work in the rapidly growing field of extreme weather and climate event research... #OpenAccess Paper: doi.org/10.1002/asl.12…

I am recruiting two graduate students (MS or PhD) interested in computational hydrology for Fall 2025 to join my newly established a.c.t. hydro lab (acthydro.com) @UBuffalo @SUNY! Please share widely! More details can be found here: acthydro.com/join.html

1. Climate adaptation is underfunded, partially because it’s hard to project returns on investment. We need to know more about what works where, says the UNFCCC. My coauthors & I say: existing data can do this, & at scale. New paper in One Earth: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@wildland_zko This is also a cool demonstration of how a wildfire behaves under wet/cool conditions vs warm/dry conditions, and how day to day and location to location changes in these conditions can set how far, fast, and severe a wildfire will burn!

It's amazing how fast a burn window can close. Early rains brought greenup to the Sacramento Valley Foothills, and yesterday's cool temps and high humidities meant you could barely get a fire started with a flamethrower. This is on the Cave Rx Project, in Butte County.

The second paper of my PhD has been published in @Nature_NPJ Climate & Atmospheric Science! ✨ We quantify the uncertainty associated with downscaling & bias-correcting CMIP6 climate models. This uncertainty is important in many circumstances! 🧵... nature.com/articles/s4161…

Data, data, everywhere... Starting a new analysis and not quite sure what relevant datasets are out there, or how to choose among them? The updated NCAR Climate Data Guide may be just the thing -- it lists quick pros and cons, plus figures, metadata, and expert notes. 1/6

Once again, it is time to share this @IPCC_CH #AR6 graphic: With every fraction of additional global warming, heat extremes & heavy precipitation events become both more frequent & more intense on average over land regions. And some regions are also affected by drought increases.
