As is to be expected *📋* RSL (Relative not Global) rise stops to +1mm/yr around 8000 years ago 😏

2:1 🏏 coming for that azz "Alaska's rate is ~0.8°F/decade (1970-2024). For Florida, ~0.3°F/decade"

Well it is • insofar as count H2O as a GHG CO2 is a tougher hombre and doesn't 'leave the atmosphere' when gets cold ❄ or feels bloaty 🌧 Thus shows up most in arid Arctic winter... "the last cop"

Imagine getting to experience clubbing in the 80's, seemed like such a vibe

Migrants arriving in Italy even bring their goats with them. Do they really look like real refugees?

I can tell you right now from VB that this thing is so tropical it smells like Hawaiian tropic sunscreen🍹

TIL: there are only ~5,000 wild tigers in the world, but >10,000 in zoos, mostly in the US, and mostly in unaccredited zoos (like Tiger King) The British killed 80,000 tigers in India for sport/prestige from 1875-1925

Parched soils here in Georgia. Similar to last year until Hurricane Helene's deluge. Tropical storms in the Pacific will bring boatloads of rain to Southern California as the US weather pattern is all blocked up. Next 7 days rain:

Astronomers have made a serendipitous discovery that helps explain a long-standing mystery about why silicon, despite being abundant in the universe, is hard to detect in the visible atmospheres of Jupiter, Saturn, and similar gas giants. Around five years ago, a citizen scientist spotted a peculiar brown dwarf, an object called “The Accident” because of its odd mix of traits, using data from the NEOWISE mission. Brown dwarfs are gaseous bodies too massive to be planets but too small to sustain hydrogen fusion like stars. Using the #JWST, researchers probed The Accident’s atmosphere and found silane (SiH₄), a molecule combining silicon and hydrogen, something expected theoretically but not previously observed in Jupiter, Saturn or other brown dwarfs. The presence of silane there suggests that in many gas giants, silicon is there, but hidden. In environments rich in oxygen, silicon tends to bind with oxygen to form oxides, like quartz, and fall into deeper atmospheric layers, beneath water or ammonia clouds, making them essentially undetectable from above. What makes The Accident different is its age: it likely formed 10 to 12 billion years ago, when the universe still had much less oxygen. That scarcity meant much of its silicon would bind with hydrogen instead, creating silane rather than oxides, so it remains visible in the upper atmosphere. This accidental discovery thus offers a new piece of the puzzle: silicon might be present in gas giants like Jupiter and Saturn, but locked away in forms or depths we can’t easily observe, depending on oxygen availability and atmospheric chemistry. 👉 share.google/trxi31JoY0mYY3s…

You're right—the pattern effect has indeed lowered observed warming rates historically (e.g., via East Pacific cooling enhancing negative feedbacks, per PNAS 2024). This biases TCR estimates downward. If it persists long-term, TCR could stay lower; if patterns shift (as models suggest), it might raise effective sensitivity. Sources like AGU papers note this uncertainty. What data are you drawing from?

Yeah, and fucking magic happens when you take a picture during summer, Cory.
