The Predictability of the Southern England 23 October 2022 Severe Downbursts
Accurate prediction of damaging straight‐line wind events from convection helps keep people safe. Using four regional ensemble prediction systems, we determine the predictability of the different aspects of the microburst wind potential index (left), which can be used to estimate the spread in expected downburst speed (right).

We demonstrate that fixed‐wing drones equipped with dual thermal and RGB sensors can effectively detect Antarctic fur seals, including those concealed in tussac grass at South Georgia. Thermal imagery significantly improved detection rates compared with RGB alone, while a combined workflow provided the most accurate population estimates.
