  6. When #Scotland will get 'very severe thunderstorms' during #UKHeatwave this weekend

    The weather looks set to be scorching for most of us across the next few days, but there are concerns in some areas.

    "The summer weather has finally arrived in June after a damp and dreary start to the month. Things are expected to heat up over the next few days and Brits will be basking in sunshine this weekend.

    "Some parts of the UK are expected to have an official #heatwave, where they enjoy three consecutive days meeting or exceeding the temperature threshold for their area.

    "But even with all this positivity, the Met Office has issued a worrying warning that things could turn ugly for some of us on Saturday evening, June 21. Far from enjoying all-round sunshine, parts of Scotland could be set for 'very #SevereThunderstorms'.

    "Meteorologist Aidan McGivern made the prediction during his weekend weather update, where he said Scotland's southern regions could face 'large thunderstorms, frequent lightning, large #hail, heavy rain, and gusty winds' tomorrow.

    "In a video posted on social media, Aidan spoke about the heatwave and the potential for some #ExtremeWeather. He said: 'This Saturday is the Summer Solstice; peak sun strength. But also, in eastern parts of the UK, peak heatwave, with fresher air arriving through the day from the west.'

    " 'But as that fresher air collides with the plume of heat coming up from the south, we're likely to see some very severe thunderstorms in places.' "

  11. Australian state orders 30,000 people to evacuate due to ‘catastrophic’ fire risk

    By Kathleen Magramo and Morayo Ogunbayo, CNN

    Published Feb 28, 2024

    "Firefighters in Australia are battling a huge blaze that has forced the evacuation of tens of thousands of people amid some of the worst fire conditions the country has seen in recent years.

    "Hot, dry and windy conditions have created “extreme to catastrophic fire dangers” in parts of Victoria and #SouthAustralia, according to Australia’s Bureau of Meteorology.

    "#SevereThunderstorms are also forecast in the region, which bring the threat of #DryLightning – strikes that occur during a storm where the rain evaporates before hitting the ground.

    "Around 30,000 people had been ordered to evacuate parts of #VictoriaAustralia before midday Wednesday, when authorities warned it would be too late to leave.

    "Temperatures are rapidly rising to the 40°C range (104°F), with wind gusts reaching 60 to 70 kilometers per hour (37 to 43 mph), according to an update from Jason Heffernan, chief officer at #Victoria’s Country Fire Authority (CFA), the state’s volunteer fire service.

    “Extreme fire dangers are coming to fruition, and in fact we’re currently seeing catastrophic conditions in #Casterdon, Hamilton and #Kanagulk in the #Wimmera weather district,” he said.

    [...]

    "Experts have warned that #Australia could see another catastrophic fire season this year as the impacts of El Niño event — a natural climate fluctuation which can bring hot and dry conditions to parts of the country — with the underlying trend of human-caused #GlobalWarming.

    As the world continues to heat up, increasing the likelihood of the '#FireWeather' that fuels faster and more intense blazes, scientists say the risk of extreme #bushfire seasons will increase."
