Extreme heat is especially hard on outdoor professions. Landscapers and groundskeepers, construction workers and highway workers are among those who spend the most time outside, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. https://t.co/B5SknokYra

I had the great pleasure of working with Dr. Gershunov at Scripps many years ago. "Sasha" taught me a lot about "detection and attribution" which is the field of science that strives to link weather events to their underlying climate drivers. https://t.co/qN2838wAwd

Over the tropics, raw temperature data reveals smaller temperature fluctuations. But when temperature is normalized -- or divided- by the temperature fluctuations over the same period, the data shows that the tropics have greater warming ... https://t.co/XLlk7z8ky7

Tropical Storm #Bill continues to move away from the U.S., but we're still watching the storminess in the Bay of Campeche. Whatever it becomes, if anything, will bring heavy rain to parts of the Gulf Coast States. @JenCarfagno & I have the latest forecast on the @weatherchannel.

We studied summer heat in 30,000 cities across the U.S You might be surprised to learn that only 3,500 cities in our study experienced much warmer summer days, while nearly 10,000 have exhibited cooling - Detroit tops the list in the US!! https://t.co/jBHdQYCYZj
