The Trump administration is planning to cancel its lease at a government laboratory in Hawaii, a site where scientists support key observations of surging greenhouse gas levels in the atmosphere, according to a list obtained by Democratic members of Congress and shared with The Post.
Trump moves to close facility that helps track planet-warming pollution

How does a ship get its name? The #RVNarragansett Dawn, a state-of-the-art research vessel, will help support ocean science and exploration at #URIGSO.

Special thanks to Lorén Spears, a citizen of the Narragansett Tribal Nation, for sharing the meaning behind this vessel’s name. 🌊

Finally: most of my fave weather nerds have migrated to Bluesky. My dearly departed “Weather!” list on Twitter has become “Weather and Whatnot.” Just like the original, minus the cLimAtE C0nSpIR@cY! posts interrupting a steady supply of spaghetti models & snowfall 4casts.
