Early spring is a good time of year to not do too much in your yard. Birds will benefit. That’s the advice from Connecticut Audubon and a University of Connecticut expert, summed up in this recent story from @ctpublic.bsky.social

Looking for an excuse to put off cleaning up your lawn? Do it for the birds (and insects)
Rather than getting an early start on lawn care at the first hint of spring, experts say consider waiting until the weather gets consistently warmer before cleaning up leaves and cutting back last yea...

Hydroclimate whiplash — or a stark shift from wet to extremely dry weather — has led to the devastating California fires. What does this have to do with climate change? Hydroclimate whiplash events have already grown 31-66% since the mid-1900s — and further warming will lead to larger increases.

Intensifying climate whiplash set the stage for devastating California fires
Research shows rapid shifts between wet and dry extremes are increasing. Scientists say this 'hydroclimate whiplash' contributed to California's devastating fires.
