Yesterday we visited Green Mountain Falls, CO to visit the kinetic sculpture Off the Beaten Path by Patrick Shearn. I wasn’t ready for just how dynamic it was even in the slightest breeze. Reminds me of a murmuration of starlings. Incredible artwork. It’ll only be up through October 19th.

The landscapes are so wonderful. And what peace they give. Observing landscapes is a charm.

#Gibraltar - 29/07 - a fab view of the Levanter from Catalan Bay, thanks to MeteoGib follower Christian Ferrary - on a humid, cooler day with cloudy skies giving way to increasing sunshine, away from the persistent Levanter. Easterly winds, blustery in exposed areas, Max 27.0C.

The summer of 1976 is repeatedly used by.. people.. to somehow discredit climate change or hot summer weather.

Here are the global temperatures from 1976 compared with 2024. In 76, the UK was a warm anomaly on a much cooler planet. Today? The entire planet is warmer.

One of the biggest problems with the world is that fools are always so sure and certain about everything and intelligent people are so full of doubts and uncertainties.

Some of you will know that my main passion is the study of #Clouds and #CloudClassification.

I’ve just found this great image detailing the ten main cloud types (genera) which are further divided into 15 species, 9 varieties, 11 supplementary features and 4 accessory clouds. It’s a complex subject!

The sun will reach its most northerly point, the Tropic of Capricorn, at 03:42 BST. By the time it rises tomorrow it will have already begun its journey south again as the hours of daylight start to get shorter.
