They have no idea of what is coming at them...

This complex can massively further intensify!

The diabatic component from intensifying low pressure systems I fear most!

Possible influence of the warm pool ITCZ on compound climate extremes during the boreal summer

Soil moisture–atmosphere coupling strength over central Europe in the recent warming climate Abstract. In recent decades Europe has experienced severe droughts and heatwaves. Notably, precipitation in central Europe exhibited strong dry anomalies during the summers of 2003, 2018, and 2022. Th...

Resonant Waves Play an Important Role in the Increasing Heat Waves in Northern Hemisphere Mid‐Latitudes Under Global Warming The influence of resonant waves on heat extremes in the Northern Hemisphere mid-latitude summer is increasing, especially in Eurasi The occurrence of resonant waves is closely related to double j...

This one is also highly important - subtropical Jet/tropical convection/or Arctic warming disturbing the mid-latitude jet:

This one is also highly important as the Gulf stream front is intensifying becoming a birth place for cyclones and/or supercharges them, which then intensify blocking (Azores high), and can reinforce on their way north/east the West Europe heatwaves.

This one is also important - how low pressure systems e.g. over the NA sustain ridge blocks which are the main driver of western European heatwaves:

Over western Europe circulation changes are discussed as the main driver (duration) for these exceptional heatwaves which can't be simulated by models

This study seems highly relevant as it describes the possibility of Atlantic cyclones not only to pull in hot air, but also to provide hot upper air

"Decreasing aerosols increase the European summer diurnal temperature range"

diurnal temperature range (DTR)

Following a decrease from the 1940s, since the 1980s the European DTR has increased by about 0.5K due to a reduction in European aerosol emissions leading to cooler nights relative to days

The indirect aerosol effect over Europe In order to assess the influence of anthropogenic emissions on cloud albedo over Europe a reprocessed set of satellite measurements from 1985 to 1999 was investigated. Special emphasis was given to t...

Eastern Europe had been one of the few occasions where emission reductions happened so sudden that the effect could be nicely measured:

"Twomey effect a change in radiative forcing of
about 1.5 W/m 2 from the late 80s to the late 90s."

Companies are blaming AI for layoffs — but the real reason is fear of making the wrong move, a workplace guru says A Cambridge professor said companies aren't cutting jobs because of AI — but because they're too afraid to make big HR decisions amid uncertainty.

"while firms, especially in tech and professional services, are pointing to generative AI as the reason for a recent spate of job cuts, the real driver is fear of making the wrong move"

The problem is that the tipping point of Earth can't be seen if only some iconic systems are tracked, but arises out of the systems operating from the local to the planetary level undergoing regime shifts which gives rise to the emergent tipping point of Earth

Just to think a second that you can do warming model experiments without tying clouds to circulation and surface temperature patterns to at least try to simulate their reaction while pretending that we can simulate the warming reaction is beyond me

We have a climate science model bias - a big one!
