I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Does anyone know how to access the 10 hPa ECMWF forecast data? With ecmwf-opendata, it seems I can only get up to 50 hPa. Thanks!

New paper in ASL on assessing temperature trends in Seasonal Forecasting systems by me, @antjeweisheimer.bsky.social Daniel Befort, Julia Lockwood and John Slattery. We find that 7 out of 8 systems overestimated global temperature trends rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... 🧵

Our paper showing the differences between European and African weather forecast accuracy has appeared online. The results will not surprise meteorologists, but the international development community needs to hear this. Weather forecasting in Africa needs to be done differently.

With another exceptional heatwave in Europe, I have updated my post on temperature-related mortality during the early summer heatwave. diagrammonkey.wordpress.com/2025/07/09/i...
