Obligatory stop at the submarine on way home, which of course is located between CBR and Melb. Temp has dropped 5degC, to 35C. Ahh #amos2017
Yet again @stephjjacobs wins the poster award. She'll soon have enough to wallpaper her room! #amos2017
Canberra hits 40C for the end of the extremes session and the conference. Enjoy the trip home! #AMOS2017

Perkins: heatwaves one of our biggest natural hazard killers [http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.envsci.2014.05.003 suggests for Aus, it is] @sarahinscience #amos2017
Antarctic ice shelf instability is likely to be already happening John Church #amos2017
Full house for sea level legend John Church: anthropogenic forcing dominates sea level after 1970 #amos2017
It's hit 37C before midday. On track for one of Canberra's warmest days #amos2017

Feeling hot today? Well several places in Middle East reached 53-54C in 2016. Ouch.

Big turnout for Dr Blair Trewin's talk on the global climate of 2016: California missed out on hoped-for drought relieving rains

Gulf of Carpentaria was a huge lake at Last Glacial Maximum & appears to have had an impact on Australian monsoon @KimbroughAli #amos2017
Sniderman: sub tropical drying in Aus, v.likely with global warming, may reverse after a few centuries as temp gradients settle #AMOS2017
In the geological past (eg pliocene), sub-tropical Aus was wetter when it was warmer than now, not drier: Sniderman #amos2017
Will Canberra exceed its record temp (42.2C) during "climate extremes impacts" session @ #AMOS2017 ? Page to watch: www.bom.gov.au/places/act/canberra/obse...
A hot morning sky to greet the final day of #amos2017
Canberra record temp: 42.2C.
Forecast next two days: 41C & 41C
Elevation: 580m (be thankful #amos2017 not sea level)

My #amos2017 talk on Climate Services, what they are and why they're important, is available at https://we.tl/6T2Gmpajs0
Pleased to see so much #amos2017 interest in our work to teach #Python skills to #earthscience undergrads!
On my post #amos2017 to do list: sign up for CSIRO #scientists in schools #scicomm
No matter how you slice and dice it (considering both errors and fits), Australia has warmed by a degree over last century #amos2017
Great talk on indigenous weather knowledge in SPacfic by @RoanPlotz Its about trust (and respect) #amos2017
McBean pops in a rap for the Global Framework for Climate Services. I'll mention more on this later today: user centred science #amos2017
Ian Galbally asks Gordon McBean about lack of @FutureEarth hubs in #SouthernHemisphere. Answer - it's on the way... #amos2017
When too much climate data is barely enough - climate data explorer from BoM is coming! @brad_onabike #amos2017
Replacing crops w savanna would lead to atmos cooling &higher soil moisture. Vegetation matters in Regional Climate Models Sytkus #amos2017
Ok #amos2017 - here I come!

October 2015 heatwave - additional 1degc due to natural variability, but also extra 1degC due to AGW. Pandora Hope #amos2017
Ok, #imbiasedbut - smart model use by Pandora Hope to look at heatwaves under AGW; altered CO2, SSTs and Atmos then forc & compare #amos2017
Seasonal forecast for October 2015 heatwaves DID show a skewing in the raw data towards extreme heat. (event had huge Ag impacts) #amos2017
Statistics for increased heatwaves and AGW clear - but good question from T.OKane - "whats the physics?" #somuchtolearn #amos2017
