Nice #PolarLow in the Davis Strait 26/3/2026, with lovely convergent cloud streets exiting ice floes to N & W - formative zone of some of our recent disturbed weather
As the WMO issued its latest #climate warning, I did my first radio interview (since more than a year ago) in Scottish Gaelic on BBC Radio nan Gàidheal 'S e math a bhith air ais! It's great to be back! www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/... (@ 45min 15secs) Tapadh leibh / thank you

I've had the privilege of being Co-Editor-in-Chief of @rmets.org Weather since September 2020, first alongside @eddywx.bsky.social and then Regan Mudhar. Now please join me in welcoming Ben Maybee as the next Co-EiC! rmets.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...
Brilliant! @simonleewx.com Be very proud of the huge achievements over past 5.3yrs!
[P.S. At 5yrs 4mths as Editor, I believe you pip me by +1mth to No. 3 in the list of longest-serving Editors 😃 after BW Atkinson & Julian Mayes]
Global map of temperature anomalies in October 2025 relative to the 1951-1980 average.
Temperature Update for October 2025
Third warmest October in the instrumental record.
Similar conditions to September.
A weak La Niña returns in the Pacific.
2025 is very likely to be the 3rd warmest year.

As of 20h, the lowest temp I can see on the #Highland #Wundermap is -7C at Inchbae Lodge (on the road to Ullapool). Meanwhile, a personal #wx stn in the deep Gleann Beag of #Glenelg is not far behind at -5.5C (having had an ice day too)
Hurricane Melissa produced the fastest hurricane winds to be recorded by a dropsonde, verified by reviewing data at NSF NCAR! Hurricane Melissa’s 252 mph wind gust surpassed the previous record from Typhoon Megi over the Western Pacific in 2010, where a dropsonde measured wind gusts of 248 mph.

Anyone wondering why so many of us believe that the climate regime is fatally flawed, here’s the evidence:
30 years in (and in the middle of the COP30 meetings), and we are still nowhere near where we need to go! www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Climate breakdown is driven by a storm of lies. This lying is systemic, funded and coordinated, and operates across almost all media, old and new.
This week's column argues that we cannot fight the climate crisis without also fighting the epistemic crisis.

And we warned them with our new 2025 State of the Climate Report which you can check out here: doi.org/10.1093/bios...
This is insane. 🤦♂️
Why do tech giants like Elon Musk and Bill Gates keep on saying such dumb things about climate change?
They have access to the best possible experts, who could actually teach them something, if they would only ask and listen…
Surpassed 3 million views I was just alerted. Though I am talking weather, climate and science, it applies to a lot of biases people have...

Not to mention site changes too
Thanks Lars - I expect there are quite a few inhomogeneities in the wind speed & gust record over the decades due to instrumentation changes; we briefly mention a few (e.g. Dines V cups) in Graham, E. and Smart, D., 2021. 'Hurricane' Debbie–60 years on: a fresh analysis. Weather (00431656), 76(9).
And Tiree also recorded 90kn on 16.9.1961 during #Debbie
