This platform is sinking. The amount of climate misinformation is at an all time high & it’s really not a pleasant experience at the moment.

I’ll still be tweeting here, but likely at a reducing capacity.
This is a very rare meteorological phenomenon known as a “Crown Flash”,
The theory is sunlight refracting through tiny ice crystals above a cumulonimbus cloud which are aligned to the clouds electric field, this causes the ice crystals to re-orientate when lighting strikes in

Tell me you're absolutely terrified about your party losing without telling me you're absolutely terrified about your party losing.
This is the timelapse of 525 private jets departing Las Vegas following the super bowl.
We gave up plastic straws & turn off standby lights though so.. we’re really on it with this preventing climate change catastrophe thing!

Do shut up, David.
You lost the Brexit campaign and ran away leaving the country in a complete mess. What you say or think is utterly irrelevant.
This is a fantastic illustration showing how quickly water soaks into the ground. Many parts of the UK are currently like the one on the right.
Torrential downpours could very quickly lead to flash flooding due to surface run off.
BREAKING:
Climate change has been debunked after Sally, 37 stated on Twitter “I’ve had to put my heating on this month”.
Climate scientists across the globe are shocked at this revelation and have decided to officially discard millions of carefully measured data points.
The maximum snow total modelled for Cumbria today was 10CM, some parts have seen over a foot.
A complete & utter failure of weather models to spot this today.
Absolute devastation in the Swiss Alps following severe overnight flooding.
Over 200mm of rain is thought to have fallen in the space of just a few hours. Mudslides & flooding have cut off towns and villages in the area.
This is Athens. A city located on the Mediterranean, average temperature in summer is 32c.
They’ve currently got more snow than much of the UK sees even during the more severe cold spells.
Severe flooding returns to Zermatt in Switzerland just 8 days after the previous severe weather event.
The UK is sitting on the edge of Europe waiting.. our time will come.
BREAKING:
Man made climate change has been debunked after Darren, 47 from Scunthorpe stated “The climate has always changed”.
Climate change scientists were apparently unaware of this fact and have now gone back to the drawing board to attempt to understand this revelation.
More than 500 people have died in Saudi Arabia, 320 people have died in Egypt and thousands more are being treated for heat related illnesses as extreme recording breaking heatwaves continue.
These people know how to handle hot weather but with temperatures this high, that
It’s a dangerous time for anyone that isn’t white in this country at the moment, the current state of things is utterly vile.
My twitter feed is full of racist white thugs attacking people due to their faith or the colour of their skin, I’ve never been more embarrassed to be
Safe to say that was the first Aurora event to actually warrant the hype AND it was visible with the naked eye, finally an event that counts!
What a cheeky little stunner.
TORRO have just issued a tornado watch for the whole of Ireland, western & southern Scotland.
Wind gusts of 80-100mph are possible within this area in addition to the tornado risk 🌪️
Wow.
Not a single chemtrail* in the sky. Have the planes forgotten to turn them on?!
*Contrails evaporate into the air quickly when humidity is low at flight level, as today. Chemtrails of course do not exist.
The detail in this picture of Mars captured by NASA's Curiosity Rover blows my mind.
It’s difficult to comprehend that you’re looking at a different planet.

God people like you are tedious.
Why does it have to benefit us? What's wrong with wanting to understand more about the universe & other planets?
The benefit? One day we might need to find a new planet to live on. These are the first steps towards that goal.
NEW: Mecca, Saudi Arabia has recorded its hottest temperature in recorded history, setting a new national record.
51.8°C. Temperatures this high are unsustainable for human life if exposed for any amount of time.
Ground temperatures could get close to 40°C on Monday during the height of the day so make sure you’re only walking dogs early in the morning or late during the evening.
40°C is warm enough to burn their paws 🐾 🦮
This platform is becoming increasingly problematic. I managed to keep my timeline pretty weather related but now it’s full of right wing conspiracists theories & anti-climate change misinformation.
It’s a shame. It used to be such a good platform for science, knowledge & truth.
*TRIGGER WARNING: Contains the colour red*
Modelling is firming up on the idea of above average temperatures next week but more importantly it'll be DRY! High pressure is finally coming to say hello 👋🏼
Around a foot of snow has fallen in Coniston, Cumbria today following lake effect snowfall into the area.
I don’t think anyone had been forecasting this today.
This picture was taken from a plane over Ohio after a train derailed causing a chemical fire below.
Human activity really is destroying the planet. We need to change.

Hi Richard,
If you spent a fraction of the energy you spend on drumming up faux outrange on research you could avoid embarrassing yourself.
Yes, it's "hot" every year, but temperatures are 10-15C above where they should be. They have broken records. Thus, not a "normal" event.
The really impressive thing about
#StormEunice
is that computer modelling picked it up, developed it & got the track fairly spot on before the system or even the ingredients that would later develop into the system existed in the real world.
To me, that's incredible.
This is absolutely insane.
The 18z GFS deterministic run is suggesting temperatures widely into the low 40’s for the middle of the month.
Not locally. But widely across SE England. Genuinely insane to see this being shown.
These are the predicted ground temperatures for Tuesday. 🐶 This is hot enough to burn the paws of dogs, it’s important to only walk them early morning or late evening when the ground is cooler.
*NOT air temperatures
Oh dear 😬
Another shift northwards on this afternoons guidance bringing 80-100MPH gusts inland across southern England.
This could potentially be a very disruptive storms, nailing that exact track is critical.
@Conservatives
When someone spends more time attacking their opposition vs highlighting what they themselves have to offer, it's usually a sign they don't actually have anything to offer.
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas,
Everywheree we gooooo 🎶
The 12z GFS shifts the polar vortex lobe further east resulting in a much cleaner & colder northerly airflow just 2 days before Christmas!
Insanity!
Over 200,000 lightning strikes detected in total and it’s not quite finished yet. This would be an impressive event by mid summer standards, let alone early May!
It’s remarkable how quickly the weather can change, from calm to absolute chaos in just a few seconds.
Either a tornado or straight line winds in Jersey🌪️
It's absolutely roasting across northern Africa at the moment. Whilst it's usually hot, the average maximum at this time of year is around 35C.
Temperatures are over 10C above that across a wide area. If we get the right pattern Europe is going to bake.
