TIL the Bureau of Meteorology has a YouTube channel with weather forecasts and warnings

Would be cool if the videos were available through the app.

Good find, I didn't know either. It also has some older info videos. I found the heatwaves and feels-like temperature videos helpful.

I went to find the videos that mentioned and save them for watching later, and I've thrown up the links here in case they save anyone a few seconds...

There's only the one 'feels like' video, so that's easy:

But I found three heatwave explanation videos:

They're so short I can just watch them all, though!

Most sites have all your socials in the footer, BOM is no exception. What they don't have noted there is bird.makeup duplicates their xitter feeds on Mastodon.
