‘The percentage of the countryside literally under water up here, especially in Yorkshire and the north-east, is extraordinary. As I write on 20 February, the UK government has issued 60 flood warnings and 144 possible flood alerts across England.’

And now scientists have revealed new research that shows the amount of rainfall we’re getting is around 20 years ahead of climate models.’

We must adopt #ClimateAdaptation NOW!

@JugglingWithEggs The comment that really strikes me is "Happening even faster than scientists thought. This is the weather that was predicted for the 2040s, if we don’t change how we do things."

I can remember giving talks in the 2000s showing the predicted climate change scenarios with different GHG emissions levels, and referring to the highest emissions as the "G W Bush scenario" thinking that it would never happen. Well, we exceeded the "G W Bush scenario"...
