in clouds

There is no sensual enjoyment, no time to watch birds play in clouds, no meaningful gaze exchanged between lovers, without the tasks completed and arrangements made to arrive at that point in the first place.

In Seattle, a “fairly weak cold front” swept in clouds and cooler temperatures overnight on Sunday, with Monday’s highs expected to hover in the low to mid 60s, said NWS meteorologist Anna Lindeman.

“The way I usually sum it up is, every time this subject comes up, I simply ask people to tell me of a large-scale human modification of the environment that’s ever gone well,” said Andrew Gettelman, a scientist specializing in clouds and climate change at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and a co-author on the paper.

Climate scientists have long known that pollution declines can lead to warming: Not only do the pollution particles, or aerosols, reflect light into space, but they can also increase the number of droplets in clouds, causing them to grow brighter or last longer.

Most drastically, while the budget proposes $2.38 billion for NASA's earth science program, a roughly $200 million increase from 2024 levels, the agency plans a substantial reworking of its current plans for the Atmosphere Observing System, a set of satellites that would have monitored changes in clouds and reflective atmospheric particles using radar and laser sensors.
