Global surface temperature anomalies have fallen a bit in recent weeks, making it very likely that February will not set a new record after a record January. However, its still on track to be the 3rd warmest at 1.56C above preindustrial levels in ERA5.

The mass firing of both new hires and recently promoted senior staff within #NOAA, including mission-critical and life-saving roles at the National Weather Service (#NWS), is profoundly alarming. 1/11

A lot to unpack from the IPCC meeting last week! Not least the continuing stalemate over the AR7 timeline, plus the US no-show, outlines for the working group reports and the CDR report + much more Includes comments from IPCC chair Jim Skea ⬇️
