Cyclones similar to Zelia are up -1 hPa deeper, up to 27 mm/day (up to 20%) wetter and up to 5 km/h (up to 10%) windier in the present compared to the past. They lead to colder (up to -2°C) conditions over the Australian Coasts.

This event was associated with very exceptional meteorological conditions
We ascribe the strengthened wind and heavier precipitation in cyclone Zelia to human driven climate change and natural climate variability likely played a minor role.

Storms similar to #StormEowyn are up to 4 hP deeper, up to 8 km/h (10%) windier over the Atlantic coasts of Ireland and France, and up to 6 mm/day (up to 15%) wetter in the present than they would have been in the past.

#StormEowyn was driven by very rare meteorological conditions. We mostly ascribe the strengthened wind and higher precipitation of Storm Éowyn to human-driven climate change and natural climate variability likely played a modest role.

Meteorological conditions similar to those triggering January 2025 California wildfires are up 5°C warmer, 3 mm/day (up to 15%) drier, and up to 5 km/h (up to 20%) windier in the present compared to the past, in the area interested by the fires.

However, with the influence of anthropogenic climate change, the warmer environment ( 1.5°C) in which systems similar to #CycloneChido develop can enhance both their intensity and rainfall potential.

Given the lack of similar events in our dataset, we cannot disentangle the influence of natural variability in driving #cyclonechido trajectory

#CycloneChido was a very exceptional event in terms of meteorological conditions. Low-pressure systems making landfall in Comoros and Mayotte, such as Cyclone Chido, generally display precipitation and wind patterns similar to past events.

This upgrade:
✔️ ensures more robust data retrieval;
✔️ extends our historical period up to 1950, improving the research of analogues;
✔️ makes it possible to perform analysis on the same day an event occurs.
