Why was 2022 in Australia so wet, and will it happen again? This major new study, led by @kjreid95, digs deep into the reasons behind those devastating floods, and highlights our need to better predict future heavy rainfall. More➡️ https://t.co/736ENRmAti

Slow-moving systems of low pressure, high levels of atmospheric moisture and a perfect storm of climate modes caused Australia’s devastating 2022 floods.

Much of the country is sweltering under extreme heat that was very well forecast. But seemingly minor factors can make a big difference to what happens on the day.

Increasing tree coverage is important but it's not a magic solution to the challenge of managing urban heat. Our Chief Investigator @NeginNazarian spoke to @abcnews about creating a thermal oasis, and other smart solutions to summer climate issues in cities.
As Australia heads towards another record-breaking summer, urban heat experts share how we can better cool our cities and ourselves and mitigate against heat island effects.
