As temperatures rise in the #Arctic, snow is turning into rain. @Michelle_McCrys tells us why it is important and what consequences it could have.
A new story reminding us of the Arctic's climate vulnerability, find out in the latest @EGU_CR blog post!

Dr. Michelle McCrystall and a team of international researchers published in Nature Communications regarding precipitation in the Arctic. Latest models show a steep increase in the rate and range of precipitation expected to fall between 2050-2080 news.umanitoba.ca/?p=156961

More rain than snow will fall in the #Arctic if #GlobalWarming continues at its current rate. New article by @Michelle_McCrys @polar_james @MarkSerreze @JulienneStroeve @BruceForbes4 #Permafrost #SeaIce #RainOnSnow arcticcentre.org/news/Rainfa…

Rain to replace snow in the #Arctic as climate heats, study finds
- Climate models suggest switch will happen decades faster than previously thought, with ‘profound’ implications

My latest paper with @JulienneStroeve @polar_james @MarkSerreze and @BruceForbes4 is out today in @NatureComms showing the latest precipitation changes in the Arctic using CMIP6 models.
We have a new paper out today @NatureComms on Arctic precipitation 🌧️🌨️ projections, led by @Michelle_McCrys, with @JulienneStroeve @MarkSerreze @BruceForbes4. A summary thread 🧵 ⬇️

In a paper led by @MarkSerreze, scientists provide a review & synthesis of Arctic rain on snow events and their impacts, addressing human-environment relationships, meteorological conditions, and challenges in their detection. Read it: bit.ly/39bu5a2. Photo: Bruce Forbes
My new paper with @polar_james is finally published and using many, many models shows that there is no robust teleconnection in winter temperatures between ENSO and the Arctic (Barents and Kara Seas) agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.…
📰New paper on tropical 🐠 to Arctic 🐻❄️ teleconnections led by @Michelle_McCrys. We conclude that the observed correlation between ENSO and Arctic (Barents-Kara Sea) winter temperature is not robust, and may be fortuitous. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.…

As the permafrost thaw continues: the first ever full carcass of a cave bear cub has been unearthed in the north of Yakutia in Siberia. Previously, only skulls and bones have been found. Preliminary estimates suggest it could be 39,500 years old. 📷 NEFU siberiantimes.com/other/othe… – at Sale, England

So what we suspected to be true is officially confirmed by a new study:
Weather forecasts have become less accurate during the COVID-19 pandemic, due to the reduction in weather data from commercial aircraft flights.

I was asked to write this little piece about my move to Winnipeg for @RMetS_tWC and adapting to the huge swings in weather/climate between seasons here...needless to say its been interesting and a lot of fun!
