The last in our series about a new paradigm for modeling catastrophe risk from atmospheric perils, this one circling back to how we might better understand this risk in the context of climate change. airww.co/3glHcdg

Pleased to share my article on how #climatechange is likely to impact human health. How will climate change impact human health? verisk.com/insurance/gate…

"Pacific Northwest heat wave would have been "virtually impossible" without climate change, experts say" by Jeff Berardelli (aka Jeff Berardelli) for CBS News: cbsnews.com/news/heat-wave…

Great discussion of the sources of uncertainty in climate modeling. A fun and interactive read. #climatechange

As growing-season temperatures rise, reduced tree growth or widespread tree mortality is expected as the frequency of #drought stress increases from drier air and changing patterns of precipitation. #NCA4 #climatechange bit.ly/2TEjArg

Simply amazing that we've broken the all-time world heat record for the second consecutive year. See my summary of the past weekend's western U.S. heat wave, which toppled numerous all-time records: yaleclimateconnections.org/2021/07/death-…

The deadliest weather disaster so far in 2021: the June heat wave in the U.S./Canada, with at least 638 dead. See my June global weather summary: yaleclimateconnections.org/2021/07/june-2…

According to an email from weather historian Chris Burt, 21 U.S. cities with a long-term period of record (POR) set their record for all-time hottest month in history in July 2021. Really amazing to see Omak, WA, crush its previous hottest month by a full 3°F:

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) will publish its next #ClimateReport on the physical science basis of #ClimateChange on Monday 9 August. 🗣️ "But wait a minute, what is the #IPCC?" Watch our video to find out 👇 #COP26

Join me and Dr. Jeff Masters for a "Disaster-off" webinar hosted by University of Michigan. On Dec. 3 at 10am EDT, we'll share our thoughts on "black swan" extreme weather events that could affect the U.S. over the next 5 years. Here's the zoom link: bit.ly/3Ibaya1

Stop by my virtual talk on Monday at #AMS2022 (ams.confex.com/ams/102ANNUAL/…)! I'll be sharing our latest work on using explainable neural networks to compare regional climate patterns in large ensembles and observations in the #Arctic 🙂

Animal decline is hurting plants' ability to adapt to climate change newscientist.com/article/230455…

Last month observed highly anomalous temperature patterns in the Northern Hemisphere and a clear La Niña signature in the equatorial Pacific. Overall, the average December global air temperature was +0.86°C above 1951-1980 climate baseline (GISTEMPv4 data).

Aug 24 is the last day to submit abstracts to the Session on Physical, Transition, and Liability Risk within the 36th Climate and Variability and Change Conference that will be part of the 103rd AMS Annual Meeting (#AMS2023).
