A reminder that physics does not give a rats putooty where Australian fossil fuels are burned - locally or overseas - their impacts are global and will hit Australia hard through more climate and weather extremes. This is supported overwhelmingly in the risk assessment science.

This Spring (March-April-May) may end up being the driest on record for the UK. This would also make it the driest of any season in a dataset that goes back to 1836. Spring in 1852 currently holds the record for driest season at 100.7 mm averaged across the UK. www.bbc.co.uk/weather/arti...

Bumped into someone just back from walking the Heysen Trail from Cape Jarvis to Victor Harbour. They had to wear face masks because of throat irritation walking along the (closed) beaches. A large number of dead fish washed up. Described it as feeling apocalyptic.

Unusual mean sea level pressure map today. Pretty clear set-up of “zonal flow,” where the air across Australia all moves more or less in an easterly-westerly direction.

"Masked security forces captured an opposition leader in the coastal province of New Jersey as regime officials continue their months-long crack-down against pro-democracy elements in the embattled United States. The arrest comes as the regime issued calls for summary detentions without trial."
