The 2025 BC fire season area burned (872k ha) has moved into 5th place with the recent fire activity. This means that the top 6 fire seasons have been since 2017 (records go back to 1950) Area burned-red bars (2017-2025 graph below) far exceeds the green bars (1950-2016). Climate change in action.

🌤️ Our #AI weather forecasting model has been published today in Nature 🤖

🥇the first AI weather model to learn directly from raw environmental observations

🌎 compared to existing AI models it is cheaper to train, uses less carbon and easier to deploy locally

Excited to be in Washington DC for my first ever #AGU24! It’s been wonderful to catch up with some of my old @bas.ac.uk office mates today exploring the city @andyclelland.bsky.social @heartmeltingice.bsky.social

Looking forward to a great week of science ahead 🌎
