WOW, thank you all for the outpouring of support. Know that I am reading all of them & want to thank everyone individually. Also, I did decide to share on Twitter/X (only to raise attention for the NOAA community)... and omg, the hate on that website is shocking. Never again. Truly a horrific space

Global surface temperature anomalies have fallen a bit in recent weeks, making it very likely that February will not set a new record after a record January. However, its still on track to be the 3rd warmest at 1.56C above preindustrial levels in ERA5.

36C :- Mumbai (Santacruz) average max temperature for the last 10 days. This 4.3C above average and current conditions will continue till at least the end of the month. It is a 'long heatwave' that is not breaking monthly records. Just days and days of hot weather. Data: IMD

☄️ 🔭 The impact probability of asteroid 2024 YR4 has dropped from 2.8% to 0.16%. Thanks to new observations, Earth is now at the edge of our shrinking ‘uncertainty window.’ If this trend continues, the risk may soon reach 0%.

2032 is still a long way and a 3.1% chance while the highest ever is still hard to get convinced of the threat. But seeing Mumbai in one of the major cities in the strike zones is a bit unnerving.

Remember the M6 quake in Ethiopia a few days ago? The one with an unusual moment tensor? Turns out that there was a drop in the caldera floor around the same time, consistent with the CLVD moment tensor. Love it when volcanoes are well-behaved.
