Anyone else giving @bluesky a spin? Jumped in a few weeks ago and I'm enjoying it. Lots of folks from the weather/climate/science community have joined and are posting news and information, with far less... noise. If you're there, I'm here: https://t.co/jTzOi3PxYQ

When it comes to wintry weather, the Maritimes has certainly dipped a toe into the water with chilly temperatures and snow. However, Old Man Winter is about to push us into the pool head first — and the water will be frigid. My latest here: https://t.co/FUAiu8fhIk

Looks like the very rough ride was confirmed. Plane had to leave early. They reported svr turb and a "sawtooth" eye. Looks like they moved 600-700ft up & down during this stretch in ~1 min. But they captured some historic data including a 893mb center drop. Mission for the ages.

September 2025 was the third warmest on record in the Berkeley Earth dataset. But this downplays how anomalous it was; without 2023 and 2024 this year would have been well above any prior records and well above the long-term trend:

Incoming cold front will shift our winds to north & usher in a fall feel over the next few days. Apart from a few showers behind the front on Tuesday & Wednesday, it's high pressure that will dominate for the next week. Meanwhile, Humberto and Imelda track well offshore.
