Doppler estimates of rain on Tuesday afternoon were "epic" in Mermaid City. 3 "to 5" + or more was why flash flooding was a big concern earlier on Tuesday.

The extreme heat (and drought) that is affecting much of North America and Europe now is deadly—for plants (our food), people, & other animals. The sooner we embrace clean energy, the more we limit this threat our our wellbeing. Thanks @npr.org for citing our research. @mason4c.bsky.social

Rhetorical. Why do “we” only care about AQI >200 when it impacts us? Reminder: communities around the world live with poor air quality.

Maryland and Baltimore. Heat kills and disrupts lives. And it is not only an urban issue. But some areas may be 15 degrees (F) warmer than the airport station. Find the shade. Care for a neighbor. Act on Climate.

As climate-induced heatwaves ravage communities, excellent response re: Virginia rejoining RGGI. Don’t trust power companie$. Trust science (and evidence).
