Beautiful morning to do some climate science at @KNMI - learn more about what we get up to by following @karin_vdwiel this week!
Goedemorgen allemaal. Ik heb een heerlijk fietstochtje achter de rug, en zit nu achter mijn bureau in De Bilt. Voor de hoofdingang staat een grote weerkaart getekend, waardoor dit het 'depressieplein' is gaan heten. Gelukkig komen de meeste collega's gewoon vrolijk binnen 😉.
Stormy weather ahead! Teaching my daughter about weather forecasting, the German @DWD_presse way in @Klimahaus_Brhv - if only it were this simple we'd save a lot of computer power!

NEW – Risk of heat-related deaths has ‘increased rapidly’ over past 20 years | @ayeshatandon w/ comment from @sam_luethi @ClimateVikki @StottPeter Read here: bit.ly/3OK1DQV
Heatwaves are getting hotter. How would extreme heat effect you, personally? Ongekendheet.nl, by @CAS_climate @TimoKelder, tells the tale emotively and beautifully (in Dutch, but images and sound alone portray the message)

This week #Budapest2023 Athletics World Champs have had to reschedule races due to extreme heat, what if the worst hit during Paris Olympics? This study shows what we need to be preparing for...
Paris experienced a series of record-breaking heatwaves in recent years. Yet, it could get even worse. Even in today's climate heatwaves could reach 2-3°C record temperatures, in the city that hosts next year’s Olympic games during the typically hottest weeks of the year.
We humans seem pretty bad at pre-emptively taking action, despite the many warnings scientists have given. Maybe the events we are seeing now will finally provoke action, or will we just wait until it really is too late? #ClimateActionNow edition.cnn.com/2023/07/19/wor…
