Don’t expect a settled spell anytime soon but there probably will be some nicer weather mixed in going forward starting with this Saturday... (1/2)

Sweden’s experience with midwives providing abortion care offers lessons for other countries. Swedism midwives have long led care for healthy women during pregnancy and birth, with doctors supporting when complications arise. Applying the same model to abortion care is both logical and effective.

I’m seeing a ❄️ risk in our region Friday evening / early Saturday. Namely in showers.
Models have increased depth of cold air, certainly sufficient for falling snow to low levels further southeast with air flow I’d expect North Sea convection. Not the biggest window ~12 hours but one nonetheless.

Current economic models miss the mark on climate risks, warning that catastrophic tipping points and extreme weather could crash the global economy, far worse than 2008.

Sharp division in European temperature this afternoon. A feel of early spring in the air across S UK and France.
After a mild December this winter is becoming very cold in E-NE Europe with no end in sight to strong freeze.
