You hear much about El Niño and La Niña - broad scale climate drivers underpinning the weather. But other drivers exist, like the Southern Annular Mode (SAM) SAM is currently positive. Our graphic and story show how that tends to make eastern Aus wet weatherzone.com.au/news/a-positiv…

Some flights to Bali and nearby areas have resumed but you can still see the Lewotobi ash plume really clearly weatherzone.com.au/news/indonesia…


Indonesia's Mt Lewotobi Laki-laki is the finest aviation-interrupting volcano name since Iceland's Eyjafjallajökull


It'll be interesting to see whether posts like these continue next year. Project 2025 calls NOAA (America's equivalent of Australia's BoM) a "primary component of the climate change alarm industry” and says it “should be broken up and downsized"

This is what the storm currently battering Brisbane looked like on the Weatherzone radar imagery as it approached. Pink represents heat caused by lightning weatherzone.com.au/news/evening-s…


Three hours of continual storm activity in western Sydney this arvo to which those in the east of the city are doubtless oblivious


There's dynamic & dangerous weather across huge parts of Australia this week. This severe thunderstorm blew up super fast yesterday, with 146 km/h gusts ripping roofs of buildings in Julia Creek, Qld. Meanwhile in outback SA, storm gusts exceeded 150 km/h weatherzone.com.au/news/outback-r…


I think about this map often, especially at times like this

I am obsessed with ungainly urban birds, of which category the ibis and the brush turkey are the undisputed bosses. At the risk of being clickbaity, here are literally about 17 things about brush turkeys u didn't know, and thanks to @Wingtags for the info weatherzone.com.au/news/how-brush…


At this time, it's well worth reflecting upon the man Thomas Jefferson called: "As pure a son of liberty as I have ever known, and of that liberty which is to go to all, and not to the few or the rich alone" The man was Kosciuszko, who later tried to free Jefferson's enslaved

You probably know about Mt Kosciuszko, Australia's highest peak, perhaps not Kosciuszko, hero, a remarkable man who lived  from 1746 to 1817. He wanted every person to be free… tinyurl.com/36bw5mjv #newbook #readingcommunity #history #biograhical @HachetteAus @antsharwood

This is the Pont d'Asfeld in Briançon, France. (I walked over it!) It was designed by Sébastien Le Prestre de Vauban, a master engineer of fortifications. Vauban is today's Melbourne Cup favourite and WE GOTTA STOP SAYING IT LIKE BOGANS. It's "Vow-bon", not "Vaw-ban". Thank you

We've just had our 2nd-warmest October on record, with nationwide temps 2.51°C above the long-term average. 2024 thus far: Jan +1.54°C Feb +1.71°C Mar +1.11°C Apr –0.51°C May +0.99°C Jun +0.71°C Jul +0.70°C Aug +3.03°C Sep +1.89°C Oct +2.51°C weatherzone.com.au/news/australia…


Interesting Google-generated word cloud on my Kosciuszko book. Illustrates the mix of US, Polish & Australian history, plus food & culture (cheesesteak!) as we hit the road exploring the great freedom fighter's life, then tackle the issue of his name on Australia's highest peak

I’ve been off the grid for 3 days (spot the kangaroo!) but on return to connectedness, my take on the Bezos op ed is this: Rich dude of the very type who actively foments distrust in media has said media is less trusted than ever and had better do things his way to regain trust
