One aspect of #CimateLiteracy is understanding what to expect in the area you live as we continue to heat and then make contingency plans for adaptation.

The WMO is advocating for an early warning system and some of the recently launched satellites will go a long way in helping with this system.

Right now parts of Asia and India in particular and Canada have been hit by early heatwaves that are putting large numbers of vulnerable people at risk.

Our climate models are useful but events are moving faster than we anticipated which requires almost real-time warning systems to be dramatically improved and invested in.
