In academia rejection may be the norm, but it would be nice to actually be told you were unsuccessful, instead of figuring it out when someone sends you the schedule of interview talks...

Excited to be on my way to , to talk about using atmospheric precursors to understand and predict extreme events! I'll be talking at 15:45 on Thursday in the weather and climate extremes session.

If you're at IUGG as well and want to have a chat or catch-up, DM me!

Whether you're a Monarchist or a Republican, the arrest of peaceful protestors today should concern you greatly.

The right to protest is a cornerstone of our democracy; from the Suffragettes to Tolpuddle, speaking out against power is a proud tradition to be celebrated.

Excited to be travelling back to the UK today (by train or course 🚅) for a month-long visit ECMWF . Looking forward to exploring how well the IFS captures the link between large scale dynamics and precip extremes, and how statistical corrections might improve forecasts!

When people don't claim on their home contents insurance 'to stop their premiums going up', is that a real thing? How do I know if it's worth it? Asking from my phone while cradling two separate pieces of my laptop...

I can imagine, and understand, that these strike dates will be greeted with a fair amount of shock, surprise, and concern from students and their parents. £9k a year on university fees is a lot. So I want to explain just how much these institutions value students. 1/

Extreme European winters are often due to highly persistent 'blocking' events, i.e. particular wavy jetstream patterns.

New paper w/ Josh Dorrington suggests such blocks are projected to become less persistent with global warming. 1/4
