This avenue will eventually lead to a useful payoff in synoptic weather assessment, and in conjunction with informed (effective) public advice a significant increase in the Global Happiness Index (or inversely a reduction in the Global Misery Index).

Magnum opus #ExtremeWeather retrospective, rich with longitudinal visuals and related in a sweetly accessible fashion.

Given apparent involvement of #RossbyWaves and #AtmosphericBlocking in creating such a conspicuously unusual set of characteristics and disastrous outcomes, the article also seems like impetus to firmly resolve how climate change is affecting blocking (and wave crashing) in atmospheric circulation.
