@stormchaserjs @FPappenberger as mentioned, for a number of reasons, this is not what we generally do. But we are looking at options how to address this issue possibly by using a shorter model climate

@stormchaserjs @FPappenberger we are discussing how to deal better with this issue. Generally speaking ECMWF is not bias correcting its forecast products if this is what you meant with BC

A nice visualisation and interesting use both of @CopernicusECMWF @ECMWF ERA5 data and of free weather API making the data easily accessible!

We know #GlobalWarming is real. But how have temperatures developed in different locations around the globe? I built a web app that creates graphs like this for most places on earth. It shows how daily temperatures compared to a reference period (by default 1961-1990). #dataviz

Important paper from @ProfMatsuoka @thoefler et al. captures, in a succinct and readable form, important areas of uncertainty and debate in #HPC. There is surely *some* truth in each myth presented, except for the word ALL in each case. But how much?
