Currently in San Francisco — November 21, 2023: Partly sunny Tuesday

The weather, currently.

For me, it’s personality and outlook: for daytime forecasts, I often say partly sunny instead of partly cloudy because I prioritize looking on the bright side of the sky. In San Francisco, there are often some clouds or fog blowing about anyway. To say partly cloudy here is a little bit redundant, isn’t it?

On Tuesday, we’ll enjoy one of those partly sunny days with highs in the mid-60s. Overnight lows will drop to around 50, and that’s when it’ll be appropriate to say partly cloudy. Until the sun rises again, the clouds are all we have to guide our predictions. Keep looking up.

We’re out of time for 1.5°C. I’m not sure what else to say. 💔

What you can do, currently.

Everyone deserves to thrive. Everyone is worthy of a better world. That’s why we’re building a weather service for the climate emergency.

Currently’s new weather service is now live. In the weeks and months ahead, we’ll be continually adding more features and opening up more slots as we develop the service.

But for now, space is limited in the weather service because I want to make sure we can provide the highest quality service we possibly can while we work to refine the system with your input.

If you’d like to put your name on the waiting list, be sure to fill out our baseline survey if you haven’t already which will hold your spot in line.

Our goal — as always — is to co-create the most personalized, most informative weather service that exists. And, above all, to make this service accessible, equitable, and resilient enough to bring safety and joy to the climate emergency.
