مشاهد من #المسجد_الحرام. #يسر_وطمأنينة #واس_رمضان46 | #واس_عام

على مدى عقدين من الزمن، وثّقت الأقمار الصناعية في #كاكست مراحل توسعة #المسجد_الحرام، لتُظهر حجم العناية والاهتمام من القيادة الرشيدة التي جعلت خدمة الحرمين شرفًا ورسالة.

Wildfires spark naturally or from humans, and we’re improving detection. Climate change intensifies them with heat and drought, but WMO’s forecasting gives a clearer picture of risks and impacts everywhere, powering #EarlyWarningsForAll. earlywarningsforall.org/site/early-war…

Et si l’année 2025 s’annonçait prolifique en terme de nombre d’impacts de foudre ? Nous allons parler du « marais barométrique », une situation météorologique pouvant entraîner des multiplications d’orages (réf : mai/juin 2023) FIL 🧵👇🏻

🌧️Thanks to data from ESA's EarthCARE mission, scientists are getting useful insights into storm systems like the ones that hit Spain and Portugal in March, helping them better understand how clouds and aerosols affect Earth's climate. earth.esa.int/eogateway/succ… 📸Edward Baudrez, Royal

Newly available high-resolution satellite imagery collected by Maxar reveals sections of the surface rupture near the zone of maximum surface displacement of last week’s Mw 7.7 earthquake in Myanmar. Rupture is ~500 km long, with up to 5 meters of fault slip.

Video of the tornado from Lake City, Arkansas tonight. Buddy of mine sent me this.

This #Sentinel3 image from 2 April 2025 provides a rare, cloud-free view of the British Isles. Acquired in the wake of the UK’s sunniest March on record since 1910, the image reflects a period marked by extended sunshine and exceptionally dry weather. 🔗bit.ly/4cg2tA1

Mind-blowing event yesterday east of Annapurna II (NE face visible here, 7937 m, Nepal)! 😱 Probably triggered by ice (+rock?) avalanche at high elev., given the reach and absence of snow at the moment 🧊 The extent of the aerosol is... HUGE! ❄️ Source tiktok.com/@lakpasherpini…

Relentless rounds of heavy rain have inundated parts of the central United States, prompting multiple flash flood emergencies. bit.ly/3DWhaMb

Wider convective clouds tend to resist harmful dilution of their buoyancy by entrainment because they have a smaller ratio of exposed surface area to volume. If you generalize to include the effect of tilt on this ratio, you find that tilting a storm *increases* entrainment.

Understanding the adiabatic process (which is any process where there is no heat transfer into or out of a system) is incredibly important for meteorology. I’ve put together an animation explaining why air cools down as it is being lifted and vice versa.

Large hail is expected across parts of Nebraska and Iowa this evening. An important component of a large hail environment is to have minimal CAPE below the hail growth zone (HGZ) temperatures and maximal CAPE within the HGZ.
