Après différentes analyses et vérifications, l’épisode orageux qui a notamment endeuillé la #Corse ce 18/08/2022, peut être qualifié de "derecho". Il figure d’ores et déjà comme l’un des événements météorologique les plus marquants qu’ait connu l’Europe dans l’histoire moderne 🧵
Ce phénomène météorologique est plutôt rare en 🇪🇺. Il se classe dans la catégorie des systèmes convectifs de méso-échelle. Les critères qui définissent un #derecho sont précis et très restrictifs. C’est pourquoi seuls quelques derechos sont enregistrés chaque année dans le monde.
Le MCS répond à ces critères :
- Rafales convectives ≥ à 90 km/h
- Au moins 3 rafales ≥ à 120 km/h mesurées ou expertisées sur la base de dégâts au sein de la zone couverte par l'épisode (ces 3 rafales doivent être séparées d'au moins 64 km les unes des autres)[…]

With a fearsome winter storm expected to hit New England this weekend, you’re probably thinking about how to hunker down and stay warm...🧵 (1/14)
As you plan for this Friday & Saturday, you’re probably also hearing frenzied voices panic about the possibility of rolling energy #Blackouts. (2/14)
In fact, @jonchesto was recently one of those voices, writing in the @BostonGlobe about how New England’s “luck” of avoiding blackouts may come to an end. (3/14)

THREAD: Some interesting uses of the @TwitterAPI to explore #extremeweather events in relation to #climatechange. I found the cognitive dissonance explored in the #wildfires in Australia to hold up based on…developer.twitter.com/en/use-cases/b…
…research that has been carried out. This is where #socialscience can be a leader in engaging with the public. Work that I’m doing now creates spaces for conversations that explore #severeweather risk, focusing on issues of shelter access for those without a range of resources
…we help #communities explore their options, including building consensus on alternative shelter provision, especially where funding is an issue in rural communities. We work with faith groups who have strong #trust and social networks alongside other stakeholders to explore…
So #ICYMI #OnThisDay in 1974, and into the following day, was the #Tornado #SuperOutbreak This montage of images is on the @NWS pages at: weather.gov/iln/19740403
I have the following image as a poster in my office for several reasons, which I will expound upon in subsequent tweets. Firstly it was produced by hand by Theodore ‘Ted’ Fujita, who developed the F-scale (later the EF-Scale based in wind intensity and damage.
What I really noticed in the key/legend on the map was how he was also looking at the type of structure where fatalities occurred, something that other scientists (@StephenMStrader) were looking at before I came along, but once you start, you can’t stop. I’m pretty much obsessed.

Hey #weather research scientists! We are looking for your expertise! Are you interested in wind/temp profile at night? Are you using or wishing to use doppler on wheel? We could have something to propose to you! #severeweather #aeroecology #DOW 1/n
I'm a research scientist in #forest #ecology at the @cflscf (@NRCan). With a high-expertise team, we are looking at the dispersal patterns of the most important pests in eastern North American conifer forests: the #sprucebudworm. 2/
@cflscf @NRCan #Sprucebudworm #outbreaks occur every ca 30-40 years and can last 5 to 15 years. The last major outbreak (1969-92) covered 55 M ha (yes MILLIONS !) and resulted in tremendous losses in the forest sector. (below: area defoliated in 1975). 3/

A good #MondayMorning, welcome to day 17 #30days30waysUK. We are joined by @jobayeshopp @NorthantsEPTeam and many others to talk about #invacuation or #ShelterInPlace in case of an emergency. The video explains:

Because of #severeweather consequences, e.g. #flooding or other safety issues, you may need to #evacuate and leave your house or flat. In such circumstances the local authorities will arrange temporary shelter usually termed reception or rest centres.
But there is also the opposite: 'INVACUATE'. Today, we share information and practical tips for when you are advised to go in, stay in and tune in or simply chose to #ShelterInPlace. Follow #30days30waysUK for information and top tips across social media today.
