Maximum temperature by country at Southeast Europe from actual July heatwave (apologies if I made mistake, this is what I was able to obtain): 🇧🇬&🇬🇷 42.2°C, 🇲🇰 42.0°C, 🇷🇸 41.8°C, 🇭🇺 41.6°C,🇷🇴&🇧🇦 41.5°C, 🇲🇪 41.3°C, 🇦🇱 41.0°C, 🇲🇩 40.9°C, 🇺🇦 40.5°C, 🇭🇷 39.6°C

Recent runs of GFS toying with "off the charts" (these particular ones) negative AAO, as warming over Antarctica continues in response to recent disturbance to the south polar vortex. cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/preci…

Mohos sinkhole just south of Hungary-Slovakian border with ridiculous temperature this morning of nearly -6°C🥶

Impressive negative SAM! Expected implications for global temperatures: -SH anomaly will reach last year's top values -SH anom may exceed NH anoms by a rarely seen 0.1 °C margin -possible another -at least daily- record of the global absolute temp.

The persistent SAfrica warmth and the ⬆️ anomaly over SAmerica also contribute to the higher SH anomaly. The latter is linked to a RWP where the strongest meridional wind is passing over S America. The ring of the lows (sign also of -SAM) around the Antarctic has also a role.

Yes, dry and cool airmass. Morning temperatures are as low as 6-8°C at the "normally situated" stations also. But sure these are in the positive territory unlike that impressive -6°C. 😀👍

The GFS is predicting an *absolutely bonkers* maximum mean sea level pressure value of around 1100 hPa in Antarctica later this week... It is *very likely* that this post-processed estimation of pressure is biased too high and that ECMWF's estimation of 1060-something hPa is

HOTTEST JULY IN HISTORY - HUNGARY 24.53°C avg temp, which is 3°C! above the '90-'20 avg. and the 2nd HOTTEST month after the August of 1992 (only 0.01°C higher). 7th driest July on records. avg precipitation was 22.2mm which is 69% below normal... Milos Milic Extreme Temperatures Around The World

Forecasted mean 2m temperature anomaly from Monday Aug 12 to Friday Aug 16 by latest EC and GFS 0z ensemble.

One step higher than the East Atlantic index, constantly in its positive phase. It’s a snapshot of the shift in circulation that we are experiencing

Yes, it's too early to conclude anything IMO.

Central Europe is forecast to be among the wettest places in the world over the next four days... This map highlights areas that are forecast to receive more than five inches of rain in the next four days. The combination of a blocking high (atmospheric stop sign 🛑) and a

"Cold drop" right above W Balkans on this morning, impressive cross section over the region for this time of year. "First tropopause" begins little below 8000m on latest 6z sounding from Belgrade.

The current water flow in the Danube river before Vienna (Korneuburg) is the 4th highest in history - 10,100 m3 noe.gv.at/wasserstand/#/…

The very slow movement of #Boris, the deep low which has brought extreme rainfall & caused devastating #floods in part of central Europe, can be clearly seen in this 5-day Meteosat Airmass loop, note the continuous northerly flow against the Alps, via Jochen Kerkmann

Maybe some good news for #winter weather enthusiasts. Ural blocking doing its magic & Siberian #snow cover has had a burst the past several days, putting some nice distance from last year's anemic pace. My research shows more fall snow in Siberia more winter cold & snow elsewhere

#Snow cover continues to advance across Eurasia at a good clip, now higher than the previous nine years (though behind 2014). If Ural/Barents-Kara Seas blocking continues in a favorable position, & not over Siberia, the October snow cover extent could be highest in several years

Have you ever wondered where the snowiest place on Earth is? Me too! ❄️ My calculation reveals that the Andes Mountains in southern Chile average up to around 2000 inches (5080 cm) of snow per year, making it the snowiest place on the planet according to the ERA5 reanalysis.
