"We don’t need to give up on the ability to discern what is real from synthetic. But we do need to act” Wise words from Sam Gregory, highlighting the “failure of political will at the senior levels” of big tech companies to enforce effective content labelling www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

As we close March, we close the book on a #heatwave without precedent, one meteorologists simply didn’t think was possible. As per @extremetemps research, in total 17 States set new all-time March maximum temperature records in the last 10 days… 1/

Before this heatwave, Phoenix, AZ had never recorded three consecutive days at 105°F (40.6°C) or above in March — The previous record was obliterated by more than 40 days. This is deeply shocking.

📜 Here’s your Bohemian XI to face Athlone Town. #DublinsOriginals

Big claims, but a weak case presented by the airlines this week on the Dublin Airport passenger cap. EU legal opinion is that the passenger cap is likely lawful. The “Open Skies” argument is untested and unproven. What sounds convincing… isn’t holding up in court.

Watch this: Well over 1500 heat records smashed over the last week across the US. Likely the most deviant US #heatwave in memory. (There are many more, these are just the records tracked by CoolWx)

Likely the best visual of the historic heatwave in the US West. You just don’t see deviations like this.

Sad how the current US government is purposefully destroying science, because the results don’t align with their ideology or financial interests.

"If markets both control the betting systems themselves and have influence over the information that may move them, they’re entering a dangerous, closed system, one where the markets are “cosplaying as news" www.cjr.org/tow_center/p...

So far March 2026 is the US warmest March on record, as should come as no surprise. But it’s only a sliver higher than 2012. It will be a race to the finish! (PRISM data)

As the first reanalysis data become available, I think I can say with a fairly high degree of confidence that the March 2026 heatwave will go down as the most anomalously extreme heat event ever observed at any time of year in the southwestern U.S.

The global food system is systemically fragile in the same way that the global financial system was before the 2008 crash. If it goes it down, we’re looking, as complex societies, at a potential termination event. This week's column. Please read it. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Believe it or not, the historic Western #heatwave amplifies again, bringing 100°+ , which up to this month has been exceedingly rare, back again. Here’s a crazy stat for you: Phoenix has already hit 100° + six days in a row. Prior to this March, the most extreme heatwave was six 90° days in a row 1/

*Earth is falling out of balance faster than ever* That’s a main takeaway from the WMO State of the Global Climate Report 2025. I want to highlight a figure and to be clear, I annotated it. This figure shows the amount of energy being retained by the Earth system… 1/

14 new state March heat records have potentially been breached in this #heatwave! That’s stunning. Even 1 or 2 is rare. 14 - I’ve never seen that before. These records were compiled by Climatologist M. Herrera and will still need to be validated by NOAA to be considered official.

“Air pollution fell substantially as Paris restricted car traffic and made way for parks, people-streets and bike-lanes.” Better for the climate, better for health, better for livability and quality of life. Common sense. Such a no-brainer, it’s remarkable that more cities HAVEN’T done the same.

The Central England temperature record represents the longest series of monthly temperature observations in existence. Recent temperatures there are over 1.5 degrees Celsius above the 1961-1990 average, and over 2 degrees above preindustrial values. Chart: UK Met Office.

Never seen anything like this. 200+ monthly records set today alone! Every pink dot means a city set its new all-time highest March temperature! That’s around 570 new monthly records in the last 4 days. Some set multiple times. By far the most rogue #heatwave the US has experienced in memory.

At least 128 new March Monthly records set today and counting! Never seen a #heatwave like it! Amazing.

History is made. New US March monthly heat record at Martinez Lake, AZ at 110°! The most intense spring #heatwave in US history.

105° in #Phoenix today has a return interval of ~4,000 + years in March based on the historical record. It’s plotted against the highest March temp in each year back to 1896. The gray dot right under it is yesterday, otherwise the 105° would look even more errant… 1/2

If you read one article about the war in Iran, read this by the prescient Nate Swanson in FA. "The bottom line is that the war Trump started has no good ending. And every day it goes on seems to delay a better future for the Iranian people". www.foreignaffairs.com/united-state...

Unbelievably, a number of EU leaders want to use the war in the Middle East to withdraw from climate goals, when accelerating the switch to renewables is the obvious course. Spain's Pedro Sanchez seems to be the only one calling this out. euobserver.com/207696/spain...

In Phoenix, Arizona, temperatures could reach an unbelievable 107°F (+42°C) on Friday. If that verifies, it would break the record for the earliest occurrence of 107°F since records began in 1895, pulverising the previous record by a whopping 44 days. This is totally bonkers.

🥵 Astonishing heat in the West this week as arguably the most abnormal #heatwave we’ve encountered in the Spring historical record breaks monthly March records by leaps and bounds! Take a look at the forecast max temps this week vs the current March records (bottom). Breaking by remarkable margins!
