It's been a long time coming, but simulating blowing snow at a snowdrift-permitting resolution over 1.3M km^2 spatial extents is now possible with CHM. I've presented these results at the @GWFutures meeting and next week at @CWRA_Flows. A🧵 on what was needed

Good story on the impacts of wildfires on glacier melt with input from myself and John Pomeroy and videos of research by ⁦@brianmenounos⁩ & co. Foremost on my mind with the Jasper fires are the human and environmental toll 💙 cbc.ca/news/science/jasper-w…

Wayne Rouse was a driving force on my committee during my MSc and PhD. He cared deeply about Canada’s north, climate change, and everyone he met. Much of his work was ‘pre internet’ and now overlooked. Looking back, Wayne was far ahead of the curve in every way. Remember him.

Despite today's grim milestone with the world passing 1.5C over the past 12 months, I see some reasons for cautious climate hope. We stand both on the brink of severe climate impacts, but also on the brink of a rapid energy transition away from fossil fuels.

Pretty wild to say, but this is my last day with @usask_water. In 2024, I'm joining @environmentca as a research scientist in the Climate Research Division working at the intersection of freshwater and climate change. I can't wait for continued and new collaborations!

I always choose optimism but the current scenario with minimal snow and recent rain/surface freezing has me pretty concerned. I want to be wrong on this. Likely the last story with my USask affiliation #westcdnag #snow #water saskatoon.ctvnews.ca/lack-of…
Lack of snow cover in Sask. making farmers nervous

Lack of snow cover in Sask. making farmers nervous

The prospect of a white Christmas is diminishing. While that may be good news for some, Saskatchewan farmers are looking at the dry ground with concern.

We often focus on global surface temperatures as a key metric for climate change. But as we note in the Climate Trends chapter of the new US 5th National Climate Assessment, we see incontrovertible evidence for climate change across the oceans, land, cryosphere, and atmosphere:

First, an experimental product (snowcast.ca from @cmarsh_hydro) provides a model estimate of current conditions and forecasted change over the next 2 days showing up to 20mm of water equivalent accumulation. (extension into SK is on a more than one to do list) 2/11
