Messing around with AI slopchurn for the linkedin... not too bad! “Fear is the mind-killer.” But so is false certainty.

Just like Paul Atreides navigates shifting futures on the desert planet Arrakis, our job in water management is to steer through a landscape shaped by climate extremes, evolving regulations, and uncertain hydrology. At Met, we recently launched the implementation phase of our Climate Adaptation Master Plan for Water—an ambitious framework grounded not in prediction, but in adaptive management. The underlying protocols draw on robust decision-making (RDM), an approach developed by RAND researchers that flips the script from “predict and act” to “assess many futures and adapt accordingly.”

Snow started falling in the Sierra Nevada, the California mountain range that straddles the state’s border with Nevada, on Sunday, and plenty more is expected through Tuesday. Elevations above 4,000 feet are expected to record one to four feet of snow, while the highest peaks over 8,000 feet could pick up five feet. “It’s coming really heavy right now,” Andrew Schwartz, the director of the Central Sierra Snow Lab at the University of California, Berkeley, said Monday morning. “I think it’s one of the snowiest periods we’ve had all season.” … ” Read more from the New York Times.
