1.5-3°C of #GlobalWarming may not sound like a big deal. But for perspective: the difference between recent temperatures & last glacial period (when there were glaciers thousands of feet thick in areas now home to Chicago & New York) is only around ~6°C. [Full link below.]

Two data points to ponder: —New York + Philly both just had the driest month in their 150-year-plus weather histories. —The U.S. is having its warmest autumn on record by far. The past 2 mos are nearly 1F above any other Sep-Oct on record. yaleclimateconnections.org/2024/11/octobe…

TERI and UCAR (University Corporation for Atmospheric Research) organized a side event ‘Global Risk Resilience Discourse and Adaptation’ at COP29 in Baku today. The event brought together scientists and policy makers to reflect on the adequacy of the scope and strategies that have emerged from the negotiation

A storm will bring rain and high-elevation snow to Southern CA this weekend into early next week. Higher-intensity rainfall in thunderstorms could lead to localized flash flooding and debris flows in recent burn scars. See our latest quick look for more information:
