Today is a year since the devastating Valencia flash flood which killed 229 people. It was a climate change induced event, much as #Melissa is & also the extreme floods in Da Nang, Vietnam yesterday. Why then are the climate deniers esp. in Reform U.K. not being challenged? 🤔

I’ll be joining Tony Livesey
on @bbc5live.bsky.social at 2230 & at times through until midnight. It’s all about #Melissa the all-time ‘Queen of Hurricanes’, as it continues to unfold. Pls feel free to join us for the facts & nothing but the facts 😉.

Good morning. Highly destructive Category 5 Hurricane Melissa is on the war path in Jamaica.
There is no doubt that climate change has given this terrible hurricane extra potency. Further deaths highly likely. It’s ashes possibly into the U.K. by Sunday.

Good morning 🇬🇧. If you have the fair weather atm, today & tomorrow, make the most of it. Wet & windy thereafter into November.
According to the ONS, U.K. retail sales jumped 0.9% over the summer (now 4 months in a row inc. Sept)… the fine weather being the main catalyst. It’s certainly an economic positive, but who would have guessed it?

Erm… me maybe! 👇
Good morning. The good news is that the vast majority of the Caerphilly electorate swerved the far right climate denying racist party Reform U.K.

Good morning. It very much looks like Storm Benjamin is flattering to deceive. He’s currently delivering nothing like the projected very high wind gusts or the heavy sustained rain for England & Wales. Northern France may well be a different story though.

Predicted counties for 60-70 mph wind gusts from #StormBenjamin 0300- 1500 Thurs, are as follows… Humberside, Lincolnshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire, Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, Kent, possibly east London. You have been warned!
Deadly mosquitos are found for the first time in Iceland, due entirely to manmade climate change. Only Antarctica now remains as a mosquito free zone. They are coming! 👀
Good morning. #StormBenjamin is born, named by the French, so *not Storm Bram. Large parts of England & Wales at risk from structural damage & flooding from this evening, overnight & through Thurs as the storm centre tracks NE’wards. Amber public warnings 🟠 should be in force but so far yellow 🤔

Unsure why no public warnings have yet been issued (0930 Tues), but there’s a storm on the way, late tomorrow & overnight into Thursday. Southern, central England, SE. Wales, the Midlands & East Anglia currently the main risk areas from 60mph wind gusts & flooding. Space & watch!🌀👀
In order of the number of average deaths per year, road traffic deaths are by far away the highest with over 1.2 million; natural disasters account for around 60,000; whilst air crashes just a few hundred. It’s an odds game but natural disasters will rise exponentially unless we get our act together

Good morning. Do you know what’s really annoying? Scribbling something down quickly then later not being able to read what you scribbled! 😠.

I’ll be joining @lbc.co.uk’s
@nickabbot.bsky.social, sometime after midnight tonight, chatting all things climate & weather. I’ll be likely having another prod at Reform UK’s absurd & dangerous climate change denial stance. Hoping Nigel Farage will be listening in but I won’t hold my breath.

Good morning. It’s the last day of the stable high pressure for the U.K. , albeit gloom laden. What’s next? Heavy rain & high winds at intervals for the rest of October into November. Storm watch… you have been warned!
