Wed 8am-The @NWSWPC is forecasting a high risk of flash flooding from #Milton with rainfall totals up to 18 inches over the Florida Peninsula. This rainfall brings the risk of catastrophic and life-threatening flash and urban flooding, along with moderate to major river flooding

NEW VIDEO: 45 people have been displaced in an Isla Vista evacuation where a cliff has dangerously eroded on Del Playa Drive. The property is next to where 'Benny' Schurmer fell to his death on Sept 2, 2023. @NewsChannel312

Synoptic setup 🧵 of high-profile rainfall event for the SW US in association with #Hurricane #Hilary. Offshore upper-level trough helps steer Hilary towards California, but will also provide forcing for ascent leading to heavy rains beginning well before the TC arrives. #CAwx

Current radar imagery actually gives an even better sense of the "Fujiwhara Effect" interaction between two similarly sized low pressure centers near the SF Bay Area rotating around a common center! #CAwx

Research by @EffrainMu finds that regions in the Brazilian Amazon with old deforestation show a reduction in dry-season rainfall, leaving the regions vulnerable to future changes. #Amazon #Deforestation sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

1/ Co-authors and I have a new paper in PNAS showing that in the western US, forest fires will likely soon become large enough to affect regional water supplies, maybe for the better in some cases and maybe for the worse in others. doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2114069…

The Tonga eruption yesterday appears to be one of the largest volcanic events we have seen in decades. We do not know how much cooling SO2 it has put in the stratosphere (data will come in later today), but this is the effect a Pinatubo-sized volcano would have on temps today:

This week, @EffrainMu presented his research "Detecting trends in dry season rainfall over the Southwestern Brazilian Amazon", at the @theAGU meeting. Important research to help understanding trends and dynamics of rainfall over Rondônia #rainfall #climate #agriculture #drought
#AGU21 Day1 was a great success! I had some great discussions with other researchers for my poster presentation. Met friends and new people & some of us got connected on Twitter! 🌎 Looking forward to more amazing talks @theAGU

This important study from the always-impressive @EffrainMu and co-authors finds that forests play a particularly important role in stabilizing rainfall during drought years

In our Research Memo, our researchers explain how Amazon rainforests mitigate droughts in Rondônia: tinyurl.com/bdez7r75 The research was published this year at the @theAGU Geophysical Research Letters. @EffrainMu @BiggsTrentbren @DeSalesF #Amazon #drought #forest
