It is becoming more frequent: #supercells, singlecells, extreme #weather of various kinds in a small area of one country. Example France, yesterday. In northern Alsace 26°C in the shade, steamy. The worst #hail in the Yonne department, #flooding in Burgundy. https://france3-regions.francetvinfo.fr/bourgogne-franche-comte/cote-d-or/nous-avons-un-temps-merdique-depuis-novembre-depite-cet-agriculteur-a-perdu-8-mois-de-travaux-dans-l-orage-de-grele-du-1er-mai-2963960.html Rain, ice and destruction in #agriculture. Departements with too much rain, others still with water deficit. https://www.eaufrance.fr/actualites/bulletin-national-de-situation-hydrologique-de-fevrier-2024

@NatureMC
The Terms "super" and "extreame" are relative. to future generations - its like normal or nice weather.

:(

We need to vcommunicate that its cheap now to slow down this mass togeather.

We will see in 30 to 100 years the effect if we change it now. And it will go worse dayly if we do not and minimal in 30 or 100 years (maritime age) if we not act now. No more to say.

@christal I hear you. And yes, I write often about that baseline shift: children who are born now will never know the species-rich meadows of my childhood. 😭

But "supercell" is an official meteorological term for certain thunderstorms: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supercell
Personally, I don't know exactly if in Burgundy happened a supercell or one-cell thunderstorm, I translated from the article. Supercells existed before the climate crisis got worse, the word characterizes the type and density of 1/3

@christal 2/2 formation in the smallest of spaces.

For me, weather extremes is the more realistic wording for education. With the global warming (an average) by climate change, people will not only live hot events but also very late frosts or more heavy rains. As in a textbook example, we had all this in one day in a single country.

Now everybody can see it, feel it. Many live horrible consequences like this farmer. It's already here.
Should I write that we live the normal of tomorrow? 2/3

@christal 3/3 No, tomorrow will be worse if we don't act NOW. France is the country in Europe with one of the worst developments already visible: https://www.g20climaterisks.org/france/

That's why you're absolutely right, we can't communicate often enough that now is the time to act. We have wasted enough time.
