Not only have ocean temperatures been hotter than ever for 12 months straight, each anomaly looks 10* higher than previous isolated record months! If this doesn't have you #shittingbricks (apologies, but really!!), I don't know what will. climate.copernicus.eu/copernicus-may… #climatecrisis

two ipcc authors wrote a paper for kids that was peer-reviewed by some teenagers and the level of frankness is something a lot of climate scientists could learn from

We often focus on global temperatures, but land regions where we all live have been warming much faster. For #showyourstripes day, here are land, ocean, and global climate stripes shown on the same color scale:

Increasing temperatures cause the humidity of the air to also increase. As the air contains more water, when it rains, it rains more. This 'causal chain' is clearly observed in changes to UK climate, leading to more intense rainfall, increasing the risk of local flooding.

Day one of the SALIENT structured expert judgement meeting at CSAG UCT being kicked off today by Dr Rachel James, Chris Jack & tina. Exciting 3 days lie ahead with our #climatescientists who are experts in southern African climate. Today is all about the calibration questions!

Second day of the SALIENT structured expert judgement meeting. The climate scientists have given their estimates to the questions of interest and are busy discussing the mechanisms of change, sources of information and #uncertainty drivers.

It may not feel like it but average temperatures at this time of year in the UK are similar to the middle of May. Here is a #dataviz showing periods of equal average temperatures.
