Photography. A color photo of an eighteen-story skyscraper with a red double-decker bus in Hong Kong. The photo shows the lower part of a huge skyscraper with countless windows, most of which have small metal boxes for air conditioning. In front of it is a red double-decker bus with advertising (for Toshiba) and next to it a train. The wooded mountain behind the building marks a straight green line in the photo, which makes the photo special. Both fill the entire picture. On the left is the ugly gray concrete wall with countless tiny windows that form a straight cut to the impressive green of the trees on the right. The train forms a straight bottom line and the red bus stands exactly between the building and the mountain. A photo with several levels and a great view of the photographer. Info: The Yick Fat Building, also known as the Monster Building, was built in the 1960s. It consists of several five buildings that merge into a huge architectural complex and are all connected by a very narrow inner courtyard. It is therefore one of Hong Kong's most famous photo motifs on Instagram. Visitors call it the "Monster Building" because the buildings resemble a Transformers-like monster. It consists of 2,243 units that are 18 storeys high. Currently, 10,000 people live in the complex.

The extent of #Arctic sea ice is still a record low and is currently more than 400,000 square kilometers less than the prior record for today's date. This previous record was set in 2016. The data here is from JAXA's Arctic Data archive System.

Good morning. โ˜•โ˜•โ˜•

14 December 2024

I recall times many years ago when I would get up to go to work on a winter morning and it would be so cold that I could not stop shivering. I would light the oven to warm up and watch some local country variety show on TV because it was the only channel that I got ... I read a lot more books. That was the norm for me way back when. Now-a-days though it's all about central heat and air. 250+ TV channels, and streaming. Of course, back in the day, we didn't have home computers, internet, cable, satellite TV, or cellphones. Hmmm ... I did have a digital watch and thought it was fancy.

"The image shows a scenic view of the Red River near Pineville, Louisiana. The foreground features a variety of grasses and reeds growing along the riverbank. The middle ground includes a section of the river with lily pads and other aquatic plants floating on the water's surface. Several trees are growing along the riverbank, providing a natural border between the water and the land. In the background, there is more greenery, including a grassy area and additional trees. The overall scene is lush and vibrant, showcasing the natural beauty of the river and its surroundings, highlighting the rich biodiversity and tranquil environment." - Copilot

Pool noodles are underrated. When social distancing was a thing, I thought about strapping on a couple of them pointing out from me, like sea urchin quills. Didnโ€™t do it because that would have meant leaving my house which was not happening. How many social dilemmas could we solve with pool noodles? Iโ€™m guessing quite a few. Your pool noodle dueling at Walmart is inspired!

By any metric, we're the most documented civilization ever. Future historians should have an unprecedented window into our daily lives, thoughts, and experiences.

Very large portions of the #Arctic observed temperatures more than 5ยฐC above the 1981-2010 reference period last month! This was especially prominent across Siberia and the Canadian Arctic Archipelago.

Graphic from zacklabe.com/arctic-temperaturโ€ฆ. Data from cds.climate.copernicus.eu/dataโ€ฆ

Two polar stereographic maps side-by-side showing actual air temperatures in November 2024 on the left and the temperature anomaly on the right for November 2024. Anomalies are calculated relative to a 1981-2010 baseline. All data uses ERA5 reanalyasis. All areas are warmer than average, except for the East Siberian Sea region and parts of Greenland.

#ClimateDiary An Eastbourne friend just told us about how he went to hear Simon Reeve at the Congress theatre on Friday. He showed us this image he had taken from Reeveโ€™s talk: โ€œthis amount of ice melts every HOUR. You could hear a pin drop in the audience. When you see it like that it really brings it home.โ€

Well done Simon Reeve for talking about climate change in the Eastbourne Congress theatre (not a climate activist crowd, more the opposite) - and for using an image that works.

An image (from a Simon Reeves talk in Eastbourne): a block of ice next to the Eiffel tower showing its size; ie its a cube of ice almost as tall as the Eiffel Tower" that melts every hour.

#ClimateDiary ok so with all the debate around the image I did some digging and saw that it wasnโ€™t Simon Reeve who created it but Enrico van der Loo.

Sea surface temperatures remained the 2nd highest on record for the month of October across the northern half of the Atlantic Ocean. Very persistent.

Data available from NOAA ERSSTv5: ncei.noaa.gov/products/extendeโ€ฆ

Green line graph time series of average sea surface temperature anomalies for each October from 1850 through 2024 for only the North Atlantic. There is large interannual variability, but an overall long-term increasing trend. Anomalies are computed relative to a 1981-2010 baseline.
