The situation at Heathrow today should make us think more about infrastructure resilience, dependencies and cascading risks. Especially with extreme weather risks increasing so rapidly from climate change. theconversation.com/heathrow-fir...

What's the energy mix for the UK's power right now? Last week? Last month? Since 2012? Perhaps, like me, you're late to the party on these excellent visuals and resources from software dev Kate Morley: grid.iamkate.com

The jet stream that helped dump a foot of snow on the Gulf Coast is now accelerating over the Atlantic, helping fuel the strongest storm on record over Ireland with 100 mph gusts and 50 ft waves! It is so strong NOAA sent a hurricane hunter to Ireland to collect data! #Eowyn

Storm Eowyn is now developing a hook shape associated with sting jets and their devastating high winds. Increasing frequency of these storms is consistent with climate change. Climate models predict compounding risks from higher winds & large rainfall increases www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

I'm currently advertising for 2 post-doc positions: (1) role of natural climate variability in modulating climate projections (2) developing a weather generator for UK and Ireland for climate projections - jobs.ncl.ac.uk/job/Newcastl...

The next UK National Meeting on Climate Impacts and Risks will be held at Bristol on 18/19th Sep 2025. Day1 is all impacts/risks, and Day2 is health focussed. Academic, industry and policy makers all welcome. Stayed tuned for updates and sign up @richardabetts.bsky.social @hayleyjfowler.bsky.social
