Calima en aumento en las próximas horas en la Península.

➡️ La calima reduce la visibilidad y deja los cielos turbios; también se relaciona con un empeoramiento de la calidad del aire.

➡️ Además, el martes y miércoles puede haber tormentas fuertes en el tercio norte peninsular.

Driven by a mix of agricultural burning & wildfires - exacerbated by warm, dry conditions - has caused air quality impacts across the region. Visit: bit.ly/4tgZ5g1

En los próximos días una masa de aire de origen subtropical llegará a España.

Lo notaremos por el polvo en suspensión que traerá consigo. Y además👉

➡️ Temperaturas muy por encima de lo normal.

➡️ Cierta inestabilidad: formación de tormentas, localmente fuertes y con granizo.

Marking the formal closure of the FAAM Airborne Laboratory - NCAS As we mark the closure of the FAAM Airborne Laboratory, we want to express our gratitude to everyone who has shaped its 22 year journey.

The FAAM Airborne Laboratory formally closed on 31 March 2026, and we’d like to express our deep gratitude to everyone who shaped its extraordinary 22 year legacy.

The ice is thick, snow is plentiful. We could see one of those old time breakups on the Yukon: sheets of ice twelve feet thick and a hundred feet long get jammed and hoisted into the air and toppled back into the river again. When ice goes over the bank it can shear the trees like cut grass 1/2

Spring is here! 🌱 The growing season has started Europe, as shown by the levels of CO2 decreasing due plants starting to absorb more carbon at the start of the season.

This is shown in ICOS Curve, a tool compiling concentrations of CO2 from 38 ICOS stations in Europe.

How confident should we be in a prediction of El Niño?

Seasonal forecasts show an emerging warm ENSO signal, but predictability remains low during the spring barrier.
