Today is the 39th anniversary of the founding of British Weather Services, Europe’s longest established independent meteorological organisation. The future my friends is blowing in the wind.

There was a time when the Tories, however hypocritically, claimed to want to protect our natural heritage. Now they're just a party of vandals, ripping down the few protections the living world has for the sake of their rich chums. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

As we approach October, parts of SE England esp. the London area may well touch 27 deg C (81 deg F) today. Pleasant maybe but way above the average for the time of year & in respect of the bigger climate picture, another dot to add to the many dots that make a disturbing picture.

You may well be correct. I say it as it really is, many meteorologists don’t.

Serious flooding in Bangkok, in the past 48 hours. many roads & residences now underwater. This is the No.1 city to potentially sink due to climate change. A city built on reclaimed marshland.

I’ll be joining presenter @kaitborsay.bsky.social on Times Radio at 1920 this evening, to chat about Typhoon Dujuan, the 25th Typhoon of the season, as it barrels past eastern Japan. Is this the super El Niño at work?

Today (Sat) I’ve been invited to talk at The Climate Party Conference at the New University in High Wycombe. I’ll be speaking principally about the super El Niño phenomenon, currently heading towards record temperatures, along with the many fallouts to come. But not just that… & I won’t hold back! 🌍

Devastating glacial collapse kills hundreds in Nepal & Tibet whilst raging wildfires kill at least 12 in Algeria. So, Mr Richard Tice of Reform U.K. shall we “adapt to climate change” whilst “celebrating” & quaffing a glass of fine English wine? 🤔

I really wish manmade climate change was not happening; that it was some massive figment of the imaginations of the best scientists in the world; that all the visible signs were just a short passing oddity in time; that it was all a silly mistake. BUT I’m afraid it’s not, it’s so very REAL!

Let me be 100% clear. Endangering the public is strictly against U.K. law under several distinct legal frameworks to penalise acts that put the public at risk, such as culpable & reckless conduct. Manmade climate change *denial does exactly that. It’s time to act! @elliereeves.bsky.social

They are endangering the lives of our children & grandchildren into the future, as climate denial is assisting with inaction & placing people under a false sense of security. It’s time to expose such people, so we can all see who is behind the lies & misinformation. The Government needs to act.
