A rapidly deepening cyclone carrying an extremely moist airmass will track over the Baltics and SE Finland in the upcoming 24h. ⚠️ Heavy rain & embedded convection (widespread 30-50 mm sums) 🌧️ Local rainfall sums >60 mm possible

💨 Strong dynamic forcing + deep moist layer = rapid development & intense precipitation 💧 Total column water vapor >40 mm — exceptionally high for this region 🌧️ Modelled rainfall: widespread 30–50 mm, locally up to ~60 mm in E & SE Finland (HARMONIE)

The amazing Potholer54 debunks Jordan Peterson and his fossil fuel lobby group linked climate denial in full! Superb! youtu.be/6JEN6XgG1d0?si…

Something the cloud seeding conspiracy theorists haven't answered is who do they think "they" is? After blaming democrats during Biden, now that Trump is in office are they blaming him? Also they don't explain the "why?" (All while ignoring human induced climate change, a fact)

⛈️ Finally a refreshing thunderstorm in Northern Helsinki last night. Nevertheless, the heat persists. Tomorrow, the heatwave peaks with potentially 30°C in Northern Helsinki.🌡️
