AMOS

#Sydney has sweat through the warmest first 8 days of summer in 45 years based of the mean temperature (average of mins and maxs). For #Parramatta, it's been the warmest on record (data to 1965), although I substituted missing 1979 temps with data from Bankstown.

For our last Changing Climates article of the year we had a chat with @sarahinscience about what climate change means for the future of extreme weather events You can read the article here 👉​ monash.edu/mcccrh/project…

AMOS is now on BLUESKY. AMOS checked the forecast at bluesky—turns out it’s all highs, no lows, and 100% chance of good vibes!

#Melbourne grass #pollen forecast for today (Monday, Nov 11) is High. Get the App for more pollen forecasts: bit.ly/melbournpollen Note: Other locations within Victoria have an Extreme forecast today.

Still time to sign up for this webinar - on this Wednesday afternoon (Australian time). Featuring three speakers talking about different aspects of Australian drought (including me talking about, yes, megadroughts)

Our overview paper on climate changes under net-zero emissions is out today along with this @ConversationEDU piece summarising these projections theconversation.com/earths-climate…

Yesterday, Kim Reid and Ailie Gallant appeared at the Parliament of Victoria. They provided evidence to the Committee regarding the main risks climate change poses to Victoria's built environment and discussed measures to better prepare for future climate and weather extremes.

🛝 Tipping points: how worried should we be? Find out on the latest @ScienceVs podcast featuring @wendyzuk and @hingers with science stars @edoddridge from AAPP/@UTAS_ and Felicity McCormack from @saef_arc podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hav…

Australia's has had a lot of extreme weather recently, so what are we set to see over the rest of the year? theconversation.com/get-set-for-mo…

Wondering how AI can be used in climate modelling? The ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes has published an explainer on the topic. Read more here: climateextremes.org.au/the-power-of-a…

⛈️#QLD thunderstorm outlook for today (9/9). Severe thunderstorms are possible about the southern #BorderRanges & #ScenicRim regions in #SEQLD later this afternoon and evening. Large hail, damaging wind gusts & heavy rainfall possible. Warnings if need: ow.ly/yzHe50Tirsn

New paper led by Ruby Lieber and with @JosephineRBrown @ClimateFreund studies ENSO teleconnections with extremes. Ruby found amplification of teleconnections in many regions with global warming and this effect is stronger in models with strengthening ENSO journals.ametsoc.org/view/journals/…

Why is it so windy and why does #Melbourne tend to get big wind storms in early spring? Outside of the tropics, the main fuel source for storms is a strong temperature gradient. The ocean is a slow beast. Temperature-wise, the ocean thinks it's still the middle of winter.

Ferocious #winds with gusts equivalent to a category 2 tropical cyclone have caused widespread damage across #Victoria in the last 24 hours, along with huge #waves and #flooding along the coast. 🌊 More at weatherzone.com.au/news/destructi… 🎥 via @thelucentcomic
