Amer. Meteorological Soc. (@ametsoc) just issued a (fully justified) dire statement regarding rapidly accelerating & potentially disastrous efforts to decimate weather & climate enterprise in U.S. If implemented, this would cost many lives & cause major/ long-term economic harm.

What's happening in this place holds critical lessons for the world as we confront the biodiversity and climate crises. Here's a link to our story that won't hit a paywall.
With the fabulous @manuelaandreoni and @erinschaff

My latest: Many of us complain about San Francisco’s dirty streets. Vincent Yuen is doing something about it. The founder of @RefuseRefuseSF has helped collect 58,000 gallons of trash and shares lots of interesting tidbits about why the city is so filthy. sfchronicle.com/sf/bayarea/h…

Pretty stunning shift in the Sierra.
What a difference in just 10 days for the Sierra Nevada. From wildfires to heavy snowfall produced by an extreme atmospheric river. #CAwx

The Storm Door is officially open. A series of wet systems are expected to impact the region throughout the week and into the weekend. Still some uncertainty in the long term, but more rain is on tap. Will have better details as we get closer.

Model ensembles trending even wetter for NorCal between now & end of Oct. I'm personally skeptical that *this* much will actually fall, but I'm increasingly convinced of significant rain/mountain snow that will likely be fire-season ending from about I-80 northward. #CAwx #CAfire
Some good news to report in the short term: it does finally appear that NorCal is likely to see widespread significant (fire-season mitigating) precip before the end of Oct. But seasonal outlook is substantially less promising. #CAwx #CAfire #CAwater weatherwest.com/archives/113…

My latest: Peter Rocha, a mentally ill homeless man, allegedly killed Leo Hainzl, 94, a year ago. He’s been languishing in jail ever since, unable to access the treatment a judge has ordered. The nightmare illustrates the city and state’s broken system. sfchronicle.com/local/heathe…

Earlier this afternoon a reporter was robbed at gunpoint at Twin Peaks Blvd & Burnett Ave while interviewing a resident about car break-ins in the area. @SFPD officers are working to find those responsible and recover the camera. This incident is ridiculous & unacceptable... 1/2

The Millennial and Gen Z values that will dominate in the years ahead are the opposite of Boomer values: not liberation, but security; not freedom, but equality; not individualism, but community; not sink-or-swim meritocracy, but justice. theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv…

Climate leadership required. #ClimateAction
I made this side-by-side to show that there are two simultaneous, high impact weather events.
It's easy to lose sight of either during an election year, amid a pandemic.
