Big congratulations to a very important milestone in the severe weather research in Canada: founding of the Canadian Severe Storms Laboratory. ESSL wishes the CSSL and its researchers all the best and we are looking forward to a fruitful collaboration in the next years!

The Canadian Severe Storms Laboratory has officially launched at #WesternU. Backed by 60 years of expertise in wind engineering and climate resiliency—and a $20M gift from ImpactWX—it will revolutionize how we understand and prepare for Canada’s most extreme #weather. 🌩️ 🌪️

Milton's evolution visualized through infrared & visible satellite, US-based radar network, and recon flight wind & surface pressure data. Its extremely rapid intensification, pinhole eye, and subsequent extratropical transition & Florida tornado outbreak can be seen here:

Meanwhile . . . New Zealand is considering what to expect in the upcoming Southwest Pacific tropical cyclone season.

🌀 Ben & Chris discuss the upcoming tropical cyclone season in a New Zealand context. They discuss how a La Niña-like pattern may contribute to stormy waters to New Zealand's north & a how blocking high to the south may cause low pressure systems to become slow-moving 🛑
