Refinding joy in exploring streamflow data 😍 just looking at the stories gages tell about rivers.

Here’s the Allagash River (ME), 1980–2020. Each line: a year of daily flow (Jan–Dec). Colors show each day compared to normal: green ≈ normal, blue = high, red = low. 🌊💧

Loving the ChatGPT critique during the BBC York commentary of York City v Rochdale. It really is a bit crap.

Just received four identical emails from UKRI stating:

"We are changing your email alerts subscription to reduce duplication and amount of emails"

Not the best start then...

If the next Bond film doesn't featured Michael Caine in a Harry Palmer cross-over, I'm out...

(I guess Austin Powers already sort of did this already, sort of)

Really great trip yesterday telling the story of the management on the River Hull, from top to bottom. Amazing remeandering work on the beautiful and rare chalk rivers at Driffield Trout Stream!
Excellent #fieldtrip yesterday looking at #RiverManagement across the Hull catchment, from headwaters to the Humber estuary. Organised & led by @geoskinner.games, with insights from Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, Natural England & Hull City Council. And the weather stayed dry for us!

Ok the early train to Bristol for our UK Flood Hydrology Roadmap Research Workshop.

Hot and stressed after an ADHD moment ate all my bacon and coffee purchasing time...

Between Muani and Scarlett's performances, and his own, I doubt we'll see much of Richarlison anymore #coys
