Understanding weather and climate in history This issue we feature two articles that draw us into the weather and climate of the 1800s as well as a special Charts of the Past segment featuring a historic flooding event from 1916. The pieces paint a fascinating picture of the times and highlight the importance of record keeping in our sciences for analysis, reflection and comparison work performed by future generations.

The isolation as a result of restrictions from COVID‐19 has led to some rather impressive shots of vacant beaches and other landscapes which would have usually been bustling with activity.
