Milk finds its way into delicacies like incredibly hot cocoa and grilled cheese sandwiches but the poop just piles up.\nDairy farmers bulldoze the mess into synthetic ponds known as manure lagoons, the place anaerobic microbes break it down into methane, a highly effective greenhouse gasoline. Methane traps 80% far more warmth in the ambiance than carbon dioxide, contributing to about 1-fourth of weather improve to day. The cow digestive tract also provides methane and releases it when the cow burps.\nAbout 50% of the methane that California emits will come from dairy farms. In order to meet up with strict local weather goals, the condition has proposed ways to control dairy methane emissions. But these endeavours run up towards a major problem: There is not presently a responsible way for dairy farmers to measure the total of methane created on their farm.\nThe volume of methane generated relies upon on the selection of cows, their diet, the weather, and how soaked the manure is saved. Estimates of how considerably methane a farm creates are consequently uncertain. Measurements designed by satellite or plane return the most exact estimates, but these applications are costly and do not constantly function at the amount of particular person farms.\nUC Riverside postdoctoral fellow Javier Gonzalez-Rocha wants to transform that. He’s operating with mechanical engineering professor Akula Venkatram and environmental sciences professor Francesca Hopkins to establish aerial robotic methods that can quantify methane emissions immediately around a particular dairy facility.\nTo attain this intention, Gonzalez-Rocha has formulated a new process for extracting wind velocity estimates from disturbances to drone movement induced by wind. This algorithm has been tailored to a drone-dependent “air core” procedure designed by environmental engineering professor Don Collins and graduate college student Zihan Zhu.\nAn air main is related to an ice main, a plug of ice pulled from a glacier that can expose changes in atmospheric composition above time. By combining wind velocity and air-main measurement abilities, drones can help detect, localize, and estimate methane emissions at high-quality spatial scales normally tough to take care of making use of normal wind and air composition measurement tactics. The skill of drones to hover and maneuver in constrained environments, where it is hard for typical set-wing plane to work, also supplies new choices for obtaining specific observations of greenhouse gasses in the reduced environment.\nThe work getting led by Gonzalez-Rocha and Zhu will quickly yield new conclusions addressing the dependability of drone-centered atmospheric measurements in comparison to common wind and air composition sensors.\nGonzalez-Rocha is testing the drones at UCR’s agricultural functions website and at dairy farms in California, where by he is applying them to evaluate methane concentrations at various distances downwind from emission sources. Knowing how methane concentrations vary at differ downwind locations is significant for quantifying emission sources.\nWhilst the strategies formulated by Gonzalez-Rocha and Zhu are in their infancy phase, there continues to be a terrific probable for enhancing the precision of drone-centered measurements. Ongoing work is discovering a multi-inlet air main system to sample air composition at multiple heights concurrently as the drone moves across a methane plume. The scientists believe that that they are on a class for farmers to use this technology inside of the following 5 to 10 a long time.\nSupply: UC Riverside","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

That’s because tomorrow night marks the winter solstice, so the next couple of days are the shortest of the year — the days with the shortest interval between sunrise and sunset.\nAstronomically, the solstice marks the beginning of winter. The Sun stands farthest south in the sky, so the southern hemisphere receives most of the Sun’s energy, leaving the north dark and cold.\nPerhaps a bit surprisingly, though, the solstice isn’t the coldest time of year. If you look at the average temperatures here in the United States, you’ll find that the weather is coldest anywhere from a few days to a couple of months after the solstice. The lag tends to be greater from northern latitudes than southern ones.\nThe effect is called the seasonal lag. And there are a couple of reasons for it. For one thing, the Sun stays low in the south for a good while after the solstice, so its rays come in at a low angle. That’s the least efficient angle for heating things up — they get warmer much faster when the Sun is higher in the sky.\nThe most important reason for the lag, though, is that it takes the land and oceans a long time to begin warming up — especially the oceans. It’s not until well after the solstice that they absorb enough energy to start warming up — and to start heating the air as well — building toward their peak well after the summer solstice in June.\nScript by Damond Benningfield","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Southern parts of the county, like Edmonds and Lynnwood, saw more like 2 to 3 inches.\nEverett had already been hit with as much as 7 inches.\nForecasts show minimal incoming snow in Snohomish County through the weekend, however. There could be a narrow band, but that wouldn’t be much. And there’s a chance another weather system Saturday morning could put under an inch of snow on the ground. Rain is then in the forecast for Sunday, according to the National Weather Service.\nIt could still take a few days for the existing snow and ice to melt as high temperatures hover around freezing on New Year’s Eve. Those will rise through the weekend, peaking with temperatures in the 40s Sunday.\nAny melting Thursday and Friday would likely refreeze overnight, as lows were still predicted to be in the low 20s, Kovacik said. That means continued slick conditions on local roads. Just because drivers can see the pavement doesn’t mean it’s dry, she noted.\nSnohomish County Public Works crews have plowed over 50,000 miles of county roads since the weekend.\nThere’ll likely be a “decent amount of melting” Sunday with the higher temperatures, Kovacik said. She predicted most of the snow would be gone early next week.\nSince the Christmas holiday, demand for Snohomish County cold weather shelters has risen. The number of occupied beds jumped from the 50s to nearly 150 as unsheltered residents looked for a warm respite. There are shelters in Everett, Monroe, Snohomish and south county.\nWorries over a lack of shelter in the northern parts of the county resulted in a Marysville church opening its doors Wednesday at 8240 64th St NE. Generations Community Church housed three people Wednesday night, pastor Craig Laughlin said. With capacity to serve up to 50 between two rooms, Laughlin expects more to show up through the weekend as word gets out that the church is an option.\nThe church is seeking volunteers. If interested, contact Laughlin at firstname.lastname@example.org.\nMeanwhile, fire officials were “very, very busy” dealing with burst water pipes, said Leslie Hynes, a spokesperson for South Snohomish County Fire & Rescue. Freezing water can expand and rupture pipes. This usually happens when the water begins to thaw.\nThe fire department suggests calling 911 if water gets near electrical outlets or panels, or if water threatens a pilot light or power to a water heater or furnace. If pipes burst, turn off the water at the main shutoff valve and call a plumber.\nAnd garbage pickup for much of the county continued to be postponed as collectors waited for conditions to improve.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Widespread haze and smoky conditions will continue to affect Southern Washoe County especially valley locations including Reno and Sparks.\nThe smoke is highly dependent upon the wind direction and fire activity which can change rapidly. Expect smoke to become more concentrated in lower elevations during the evenings and early mornings with partial clearing in the afternoons as atmospheric mixing or favorable winds lifts the smoke out of the breathing zone.\nAir quality is expected to remain in either the Unhealthy range, Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups range or the Moderate range as wind and weather conditions change.\nFine particulate matter known as PM2.5 is comprised of microscopic particles that can travel deep into our lungs and is the pollutant of concern found in wildfire smoke. While everybody may experience varying degrees of symptoms, persons in the sensitive groups category include children, the elderly, and anyone with respiratory and heart conditions are of greatest risk at experiencing more aggravated symptoms and serious complications. Smoke can irritate the eyes and airways, causing coughing, a scratchy throat, irritated sinuses, headaches, stinging eyes or a runny nose.\nIf you have heart or lung disease, smoke might make your symptoms worse. People with heart disease might experience chest pain, palpitations, shortness of breath, or fatigue. People with lung disease may not be able to breathe as deeply or as vigorously as usual, and they may experience symptoms such as coughing, phlegm, chest discomfort, wheezing and shortness of breath.\nIn general, if you smell smoke and feel it’s affecting you, then take precautions such as:\n• Staying indoors with the windows and doors closed and air conditioner on.\n• Limiting prolonged or heavy exertion and physical activity while outdoors.\n• Drinking plenty of fluids.\nPersons experiencing questionable or severe symptoms should contact their doctor if they have any questions.\nHere is Friday's warning from Carson City and Douglas County:\nThe Nevada Division of Environmental Protection (NDEP) air quality\nmonitors in Gardnerville and Carson City indicate extremely elevated amounts of particulate matter in the air due to wildfires in California. The levels of particulate matter equate to “Very Unhealthy” on the Air Quality Index (AQI) level of health concern. The AQI is an index for reporting daily air quality and what associated health effects might\nbe an issue.\nIn conditions that lead to a “Very Unhealthy” designation, all residents may begin to experience adverse health effects. Members of sensitive groups (young children, the elderly, people with asthma or other respiratory issues) may experience more serious affects. People should avoid prolonged or heavy exertion outside and consult with their health care provider if needed.\nBased on National Weather Service forecasts, NDEP expects very unhealthy air quality conditions to remain in Carson City and Douglas County throughout the weekend.\nDue to unhealthy air quality levels in northern Nevada, Carson Tahoe Health encourages the public to be\naware of the following:\n• Air quality is so bad that even the healthiest of individuals\ncould be in danger if they spend too much time outdoors\n• Shelter in place, stay indoors.\n• Keep hydrated to progress a cough and help prevent smoky air from settling in the lungs\n• Use air conditioning if possible, to help filter air throughout a house\n• Keep all doors and windows shut in both home and vehicles, if in a vehicle make sure the air conditioner is set to reticulate the air\n• Humidifiers will help the air quality in a home or building\n• Masks are available for purchase at hardware stores and can really help filter the air and aid in comfort.\nSeek emergency care if:\n• You are having trouble breathing or can’t say more than four words without having to stop and take a breath\n• You experience excessive sweating\n• Your lips are turning blue\n• You are confused or lose consciousness","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Navy has ordered the evacuation of all non-essential active-duty military personnel. Texas governor Greg Abbott has declared a state of disaster for at least 30 of the state’s 254 counties, and has reportedly asked the President for a federal disaster declaration. Nearby Louisiana has also declared a state of emergency—just in case. Schools have been preemptively shut down for Monday. On Twitter, users are posting emergency preparedness kits that include battery operated radios, go-bags, and six packs of Shiner Bock, a local brew. If all else fails, there’s always beer.\nHarvey, formerly a troubling tropical storm barreling its way towards the Gulf of Mexico, is behind the panic. The storm strengthened to a Category 2 hurricane on Friday morning, then got the ominous upgrade to a Category 3 storm later the same day. At 7 pm EST, Harvey was upgraded to a Category 4 hurricane, exceeding all expectations. The last Category 4 hurricane to touch down in the United States was Hurricane Charley, which hit Florida and the Carolina’s in 2004.\nThe upgrade from Category 3 to 4 was made because of data received from NOAA’s specially outfitted Lockheed WP-3D Orion airplanes, better known as the Hurricane Hunters. The planes actually fly into the eye of the hurricane, where they use onboard instruments to transmit measurements of pressure, humidity, temperature, and wind direction to create a more detailed picture of its structure and intensity.\nAs of 7 pm EST, the storm was located 40 miles east of Corpus Christi and moving northwest at around 8 mph, according to NOAA. Earlier in the day, NPR reported that strong gusts were already being recorded in the area.\nWhen Harvey lands sometime on Friday evening, it will be the first major hurricane on American soil since 2005 (only Category 3 and above are considered major hurricanes). That year hurricanes Katrina, Rita, Dennis, and Wilma walloped the nation, killing more than 4,000 people and causing nearly $160 billion dollars in damage.\nTo count as a hurricane, a tropical cyclone must have sustained winds of at least 74 miles per hour. A Category 3 hurricane like Harvey was previously predicted to be, has sustained winds of 111-129 miles per hour, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Hurricane Center. At wind speeds that high, the roof of even a well built frame home be ripped from the underlying building. Trees will be snapped and uprooted. Electricity and water can become unavailable for days to weeks after the storm passes. A Category 4 hurricane includes wind speeds of between 130-156 miles per hour; though currently Harvey is at the lower edge of a Category 4. A Category 4 hurricane includes all of the risks associated with a Category 3. In addition, mobile homes will likely be destroyed, and residents who do not evacuate should expect widespread communication outages. Most of the area will be uninhabitable for weeks or months.\nHurricane Harvey was expected to slam into Corpus Christi, a city of 350,000 right on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, though it now seems possible the city won’t be hit with the full force of the storm. Harvey will also hit Houston, which is Texas’s largest city with a population of 2.3 million. Both cities are heavily invested in oil refining. In fact, Houston is home to the nation’s largest refining and petrochemical complex; the home of billions of gallons of dangerous chemicals.\nIn 2016, Pete Olson—a Republican congressman from the Houston suburb of Sugar Land—told ProPublica that, “If a storm hits the region in the right spot, ‘it’s going to kill America’s economy.'” In addition to being incredibly difficult to clean up (one of many factors that stymied relief efforts in New Orleans post Hurricane Katrina) a well placed storm would shut down the region’s refineries and shipping channels, sending the price of gas soaring.\nIn 2008, the Category 2 storm Hurricane Ike caused $30 billion dollars in damage and killed 74 people in Texas. Houston was hit hard, but it was spared the worst. The storm was supposed to be a direct strike on the city, but shifted course 50 miles offshore. The storm was still the third worst on record after Hurricane Katrina and Superstorm Sandy. In terms of Houston’s ability to protect its infrastructure from the storm, not much has changed in the year since ProPublica published their story.\nAnd if the refineries leak it will further complicate rescue efforts. Since the chemicals are toxic, even more so when comingled, workers can’t be sent in unless they know the area is safe. As Steven Drielak who served as a Director with the EPA’s National Counter Terrorism Evidence Response Team during Katrina, told Popular Science earlier this year, “You need to picture hundreds of gasoline stations, and hundreds of chemical storage facilities all flooding out. The water enters, picks up all of these chemicals, mixes it into a huge toxic soup, and then flows through the city streets. Once the water recedes it all soaks into the ground. Now you’ve got this toxic material in the ground and you don’t know whether it’s safe or not.”\nBut while the wind damage of a hurricane can be horrifying, inland flooding is actually a bigger threat. In 2011, it was water that made Irene (which made land as a minor Category 1 hurricane) so devastating. As Irene lingered over the state of Vermont, it dropped more than 11 inches of rain. Rivers overflowed, the state’s famous covered bridges collapses, and their debris went barreling down water ways. It was the sixth most expensive hurricane on record.\nAnd in Texas, it’s water that has meteorologists, lawmakers, and residents especially concerned. Scientists predict storm surges—sea level rises due to a combination of low atmospheric pressure, high winds, and high waves—of up to 12 feet. Storm surges can be made even worse by coastal erosion, or the sinking of coastal areas, and by rising sea levels associated with human caused climate change. Residents on the coast are advised to evacuate inland, and their window to do so is closing.\nBeyond the storm surge, Texas residents are also dealing with the fact that Harvey plans to malinger. After hitting Corpus Christi, the storm seems set to remain over the state until Wednesday. Along the way it will drop 15 to 25 inches of rain, with some isolated pockets receiving as much as 35 inches. June, Houston’s wettest month, normally sees around 6 inches of rain.\nAlready, Harvey is drawing comparisons with Tropical Storm Allison, which hit Houston back in 2001. With winds at a mere 60 miles per hour, Allison barely moved the indicator on the anemometer. But in Harris County (where Houston is located) she left between 10 to 30 inches of rain over the course of four days. The ensuing flooding killed 22 people, left another 30,000 homeless, and caused $5 billion dollars in property damage. The devastation was so great that Allison bore the dubious distinction of being the first storm to have its name retired without ever becoming a hurricane.\nIn May, NOAA predicted a 45 percent chance that the 2017 Atlantic Hurricane season—which runs from June 1 through November 30—would be more active than normal. They predicted that there would be a 70 percent likelihood of 11 to 17 names storms (containing winds of 39 mph or higher) 5 to 9 of which could become hurricanes. Harvey is the eighth named storm this year, and the third hurricane so far.\nThe Governor’s website has a list of the mandatory evacuation zones. Earlier today at a press conference, Patrick Rios, the Mayor pro tem of the City of Rockport—a city in the mandatory evacuation zone—told residents who are staying to write their names and Social Security numbers on their arms with permanent marker, according to ABC News. It’s a surprisingly common piece of advice among disaster preparedness experts, who often also suggest writing down a phone number of a close relation who has either evacuated or is not in the evacuation zone. Once the storm clears, both assist rescue workers in identifying bodies.\nIf you have chosen to remain in an evacuation zone, please take care.

However, the last remnant system is in effect in the country and scattered rain-thundershowers are expected in Islamabad, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan.\n“Monsoon currents are penetrating upper parts of the country, while a westerly wave also affecting upper parts of the country and likely to persist for next 2 to 3days,” said Dr Muhammad Hanif, director at Pakistan Meteorological Department (PMD), “But this is the last of monsoon rains.”\nThe met office predicts that apart from the rains at scattered places, hot and humid weather is expected elsewhere in the country.\nPakistan faced lower than normal rainfall in the monsoon season this year due to the El-Nino effect; as a result the water reservoirs across the country have not been filled to capacity.\nSame is the case with three local water reservoirs and despite the blue grey looks of fresh water at Rawal Lake, Khanpur Lake and Simly Lake; the level is far less than the upper limit, and their spillways have not been operational even for one time this season.\nThe five year data of Rawal Lake shows that except for the year 2012, the water level had reached its maximum level of 1,752 feet, whereas the official data highlights on September 15 the water level remained at 1,740 feet only, the dead level at Rawal Lake is 1,708 feet.\nSimilarly, the water level at Simly Lake had been at around 2,312 feet on September 15 during 2010 and 2011 but it was far less than the maximum level of 2,315 feet on September 15, 2012 at 2,288 feet.\nWhile, the conditions are bleak at the Khanpur Lake, as the water level was above 1,980 feet on September 15, during the past two years at the Lake, whereas the current level was 1,939 feet against the maxim limit of 1,982 feet.\nThe officials say that it is less likely that the reservoir would be filed before the next monsoon season, which would start in July 2013.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The storm has already cut oil production in the Gulf of Mexico by 40 percent and natural gas output by 28 percent.\nMichael is set to be the second hurricane to make landfall in the U.S. in a month. It has been upgraded to a Category 3 storm at latest report, according to the National Hurricane Center, and it is expected to drop 4-8 inches of rain on the region, with some areas getting as much as 12 inches.\n“Additional strengthening is expected, and Michael is forecast to be a major hurricane at landfall,” said Dan Brown, a senior hurricane specialist at the National Hurricane Center, in a forecast analysis.\nMichael is arriving after Florence hit North Carolina on Sept. 14, causing devastating floods, killing at least 39, and causing about $45 billion in estimated damages. While Michael will land with stronger winds, it won’t linger after it comes on shore the way Florence did, inundating the Carolinas with rain for days and days.\n“It will be a different monster than Florence,” Brett Rathbun, a meteorologist at AccuWeather Inc. in State College, Pa., said by telephone. Rather than lingering, Michael is expected to race off across Georgia on Oct. 11, and settle off the coast of Massachusetts by this weekend, he said. Duke Energy Corp. which saw about 1.5 million customers in the Carolinas lose power from Florence, is warning its 1.8 million Florida customers to prepare for extended power outages. The company is moving utility crews and resources into the area to help restore power as soon as it’s safe to do so.\nThe impending storm also drew multiple tweets from President Donald Trump on Oct. 9. “Good news is, the folks in the Pan Handle can take care of anything,” one of the tweets noted, “@FEMA and First Responders are ready—be prepared!”\nDamages from the storm could reach between $5 billion and $15 billion, depending on its intensity after landfall and how quickly it moves through the region, analysts said. AccuWeather forecasts total damage and economic impact will be close to $15 billion, while Chuck Watson, of Enki Research in Savannah, Georgia, suggests it will cause $7 billion to $10 billion in damage, with Panama City, Florida, taking the hardest hit.\n“Michael is definitely shaping up to be a classic hurricane,” Watson said by telephone. “So the estimates are a bit more stable since you don’t have the stall and wander problem” that made Hurricane Florence hard to calculate.\nWhile the panhandle is more sparsely populated than many other areas of Florida, it includes the capital city of Tallahassee, Pensacola and Panama City.\nAfter making landfall in the Panhandle region, the storm is forecast to bend back across Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina later in the week, ending up back in the Atlantic.\nHere’s the latest on the storm’s effects: Hurricane warnings are in effect from Suwannee River, Florida, to the Florida-Alabama border, and a hurricane watch is in effect for the entire coast of Alabama. The Coast Guard on Oct. 9 closed ports at Gulfport and Pascagoula in Mississippi, Mobile in Alabama, and Panama City, and Pensacola in Florida, and restricted vessel traffic on the Intracoastal Waterway.\nEnergy companies pulled crews off 75 production platforms of the 687 currently in the Gulf of Mexico, according to the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement.\nThe Atlantic has produced 14 named storms this year. They include Hurricane Florence, the most powerful one so far this year, and Tropical Storm Gordon, which made landfall on the Alabama-Mississippi border last month.\nThe panhandle region has suffered significant storm damage in the past, hit by Hurricane Ivan in 2004 and Hurricane Dennis in 2005. In 2010, the Deepwater Horizon oil spill hit Pensacola Beach, hurting the fishing and tourism industries.\nThe area is also home to a number of military bases, including the Naval Air Station at Pensacola and Eglin Air Force Base.\nBy Brian K.

According to NASA, this meteor is known to be one of the fastest, with speeds reaching 71 kilometers per second. Space enthusiasts will be able to see 15 meteors per hour at its peak, which only happens once every 33 years.\nNASA recommends camping at midnight local time and preparing for a long night as the shower lasts until dawn.\nTIPS TO KEEP IN MIND\nThe Canadian Space Agency (CSA) recommends some tips for optimal vision before heading out at night.\nHis advice is similar for most astronomical events: check the weather ahead, stay away from city lights, and settle in an open area away from tall buildings and trees.\nMost importantly, any skywatching activity should begin 30 minutes before the event in question, as human eyes need time to adjust to darkness. The CSA recommends not using phones or bright white flashlights beforehand and instead using red flashlights for getting around.\nctvnews Canada news","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Weather Channel meteorologist Kevin Roth said it could dump 20 inches of rain in the island\\u0026#039;s lower ground and 40 inches in its mountains.\\u0022Hurricane Matthew became the first Category 4 landfall in Haiti in 52 years, and parts of eastern Cuba and the Bahamas are next in line for a pummeling from this major hurricane,\\u0022 the Weather Channel said.Reuters also reports:One man died when a wave crashed through his home in the beach town of Port Salut, Haiti\\u0026#039;s civil protection service said. He had been too sick to leave for a shelter, according to officials.Overnight, Haitians living in vulnerable coastal shacks on the Tiburon peninsula had frantically sought shelter as Matthew closed in, bringing heavy rain and driving the ocean into seaside towns. Poor Haitians are often loath to leave home in the face of storms, fearing their few belongings will be stolen.The storm comes as the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere continues to grapple with the long-term aftermath of the 2010 earthquake that killed more than 200,000 people, as well as an expected outbreak of cholera, which the U.N. recently acknowledged it had a part in spreading.\\u0022We\\u0026#039;re expecting a lot of houses to go down because of the poor housing infrastructure in a lot of the rural areas where we work,\\u0022 John Hasse, an aid worker in Haiti, told USA Today. \\u0022With wind this strong, it will be extremely damaging and dangerous and homes for the average person are made of mud and sticks or poorly constructed cinderblocks.\\u0022In the beach town of Les Cayes, about 150 people were forced to take shelter in a school, where they were reportedly left without supplies. \\u0022Since yesterday we\\u0026#039;ve had nothing...We must sleep on the floor...Everyone is hungry,\\u0022 Erick Cange, a resident of the town\\u0026#039;s La Savanne neighborhood, told Reuters.Meanwhile, NBC News meteorologist Bill Karins warned that Matthew could also be a \\u0022major hurricane\\u0022 from Florida to North Carolina, although impacts might be different in various regions.At Wunderground, meteorologists Bob Henson and Jim Masters explain what that could mean:One particular concern is the risk of very heavy rain from eastern North Carolina into the Delmarva region. The last two weeks have already left totals exceeding 10\\u0022 in some areas. Any rains from Matthew would fall atop saturated soil, and even strong tropical-storm-force winds could lead to widespread tree uprooting. We can also expect major beach erosion as Matthew churns northeastward.Florida Governor Rick Scott declared a state of emergency on Monday, putting the National Guard on standby.The storm is also expected to hit Cuba in the province of Guantánamo, also home to the controversial U.S. military prison. Alexis Iglesias, head of the evacuation committee at Guantánamo University, which is acting as a storm shelter, told Reuters, \\u0022We are receiving people living in villages prone to flooding.\\u0022Last week, the Guantánamo Navy base evacuated about 700 family members of troops and other military staff to a \\u0022safe haven\\u0022 in Pensacola.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

While the storms have\nbeen helpful in replenishing water supplies, weather forecasters warn, that much more rain is needed to\nactually break the drought.\nAs Dennis' remnants continued to drift northward, most people are counting their blessings at the same\ntime they calculate damages. \"Today is just beautiful,\" said the Rev.

Now I know what he meant. I'm sitting here, lookingat the water damage here in my office --\nthe roof has been leaking all week -- but I'm still grateful just to be here.\"\nIn nearby Davis, N.C., resident Richard Wade had a slightly different perspective. \"We have just been\ntormented by water,\" he said. \"It rained for days, and the streets are still filled with water. The salt water\ncame up so far during high tide that it ruined crops and everyone's garden.\"\nOn Monday, Davis plans to volunteer, along with teams from churches and other community\norganizations, to help clean debris out of people's yards. \"A lot of people -- the elderly for example -- just\ncan't do that themselves.\"\nWeather forecasters are also marveling at Dennis persistence and \"staying power.\" Generally, tropical\nstorms affect a single area for 12 hours or less, including the approach and retreat.\nYet Dennis hung over the Carolina coast for nearly a week, and the extended rain and a nine-foot storm\nsurge caused flooding in many North Carolina communities. No significant injuries have yet been\nAt the peak of the storm, more than 18 shelters were opened in nine North Carolina coastal counties.\nThe North Carolina Division of Emergency Management reported that some 150 homes were flooded in\nCraven County and more than 100 in Pamlico County, where floodwaters were up to four feet deep, and\nsome county buildings were also flooded and diesel fuel spills and propane tanks are causing pollution\nReports also indicated that half of Ocracoke Island is flooded.

Earlier in the week, Dennis stranded some 5,000\npeople on Hatteras and elsewhere on the Outer Banks.\nScattered power outages are still reported in North Carolina, Maryland, and Virginia. At the storm's peak,\nnearly 5,000 people were without power in North Carolina. Although Dennis' sustained winds were\nclocked at 70 mph Saturday, by Sunday winds in North Carolina dropped to 35 mph. The system has\ncontinued to weaken as it travels over land.\nBut even before Dennis left North Carolina Sunday night, the storm caused spin-off tornadoes that\ntouched down in Virginia on Saturday. A tornado in Hampton, which touched down on Saturday,\ndamaged an assisted living center, nursing home, and two apartment buildings. The Red Cross has opened\nshelters in two local schools to help house nearly 1,000 displaced people, and the Salvation Army and local\nchurches are helping to meet immediate needs.\nA tornado also touched down in Chesapeake, Va., destroying a barn and downing power lines.

Rain could last in those areas through Tuesday.\nThere, even brief intervals of sunlight were cause for concern as weather forecasters warned that, as\nsunshine warmed the air, the temperature rise increased the chances a tornado would form.\nVirginia Power and the Potomac Electric Power Company reported a few thousand power outages\nSunday.

Parts of Alabama reached record highs of 101 degrees, and Atlanta, Ga., hit 96.\nWeather forecasters are also closely watching the seventh tropical depression of the season, formed in the\nsouthwestern Gulf of Mexico late Sunday, which may hit northeastern Mexico as early as Monday evening\nbringing heavy rain to that area.

Tornadoes struck, severely damaging an apartment complex in Houston, Texas yesterday. A firefighter in Oklahoma was swept to his death while trying to rescue 10 people in high water.\nAnd the body of a man was recovered from a flooded area along the Blanco River, which rose 26 feet (7.8 metres) in just one hour and left piles of wreckage 20 feet (6 metres) high, authorities in Texas said. \"It looks pretty bad out there,\" said Hays County emergency management coordinator Kharley Smith, describing the destruction in Wimberley, a community that is part of a fast-growing corridor between Austin and San Antonio.\n\"We do have whole streets with maybe one or two houses left on them and the rest are just slabs,\" she said. From 350 to 400 homes were destroyed in Wimberley, many of them washed away, Smith said. Several people remained missing. Kenneth Bell, the emergency management coordinator in nearby San Marcos, said the damage in Hays County alone amounts to \"millions of dollars.\"\nAuthorities also warned people to honour a night-time curfew and stay away from damaged areas, since more rain was on the way, threatening more floods with the ground saturated and waterways overflowing. Rivers rose so fast that whole communities woke up yesterday surrounded by water.\nThe Blanco crested above 40 feet (12 metres) more than triple its flood stage of 13 feet (3.9 metres) swamping Interstate 35 and forcing parts of the busy north-south highway to close. Rescuers used pontoon boats and a helicopter to pull people out. Dallas also faced severe flooding from the Trinity River, which was expected to crest near 40 feet (12 metres) today and lap at the foundations of an industrial park.\nThe Red and Wichita rivers also rose far above flood stage. This May is already the wettest on record for several cities in the southern Plains states, with days still to go and more rain on the way. So far this year, Oklahoma City has recorded 27.37 inches (69.52 centimetres) of rain. Last year the state's capital got only 4.29 inches (10.9 centimetres).\nThe reasons include a prolonged warming of Pacific Ocean sea surface temperatures, which generally results in cooler air, coupled with an active southern jet stream and plentiful moisture from the Gulf of Mexico, said Meteorologist Forrest Mitchell at THE National Weather Service office in Norman, Oklahoma.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

One day last week, a young boy asked if hurricanes from the Pacific can cross over to the Atlantic?\nYes and no.\nA hurricane-strength storm is unable to cross over that much land and still be a hurricane. However, tropical storms and remnants of hurricanes are able to cross over. When this does happen, the new storm is referred to as a Pacific-Atlantic crossover hurricane. That can work the other way, too and it’s called an Atlantic-Pacific crossover hurricane. When the storm enters the new basin or body of water, it is given a new name.\nRemember Willa? On Monday, Willa was a Category 5 Pacific hurricane off the coast of Mexico. Willa quickly weakened after making landfall as a Category 3 on Tuesday. Energy – aka rain bands – have been travelling eastward across the southern states. As the remnants of Willa push off the coast and move back over water, what was once a Category 5 hurricane will become a Nor’easter and a snowstorm for parts of Ontario and Quebec this weekend.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

That shouldn’t be a controversial statement. But in some quarters, it is. As the Obama administration readies a new slate of power grabs by the Environmental Protection Agency, it has called in former Republican EPA head Christine Todd Whitman to justify its actions.\n“The Environmental Protection Agency has the authority to address climate change,” she wrote for Politico.com on Monday. “That shouldn’t be a controversial statement, but in some quarters, it is. … As administrator of the EPA from 2001-03, I served in the administration of President George W. Bush. I may sometimes disagree with his successor on the best way to address climate change as a matter of policy, but I absolutely agree that the EPA has broad authority to issue regulations addressing climate change.”\nThe issue is regulation of “greenhouse gases,” including carbon dioxide. That issue came before the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday.\nAs Reuters reported, “The nine justices will weigh whether the agency has authority to regulate greenhouse gases under a program for issuing permits for stationary sources of pollution, such as power plants and oil refineries. A decision is expected by the end of June.”\nWhitman argues that the government does have such power. Or at least, it should.\n“Climate change is the defining environmental challenge of our time, and there are huge consequences for inaction — whether measured in human lives or economic disruption,” she claimed. “Given these stakes, I wish Congress would step up and do its job, refining America’s approach to climate change and expanding the tools at the EPA’s disposal. In previous decades, the EPA could rely upon bipartisan majorities to revise the Clean Air Act and address new and growing air pollution problems directly. Today, gridlock and partisanship make such common-sense action all but impossible. Nevertheless, the Clean Air Act — as written — remains the most powerful tool the EPA has at its disposal to address the issue of climate change.”\nHer reasoning, then, goes something like this: Since climate change is so important, and since Congress isn’t doing its job, the EPA must use its “most powerful tool” to address it.\nBut Daniel Fisher of Forbes points out that the Clean Air Act was never intended to do any such thing.\n“Certainly Congress wasn’t thinking of carbon dioxide when it passed the Clean Air Act in 1970,” Fisher writes. “The law was designed to reduce soot, ozone and other pollutants that contributed to smog and breathing problems on the ground. There was a direct relationship between reducing these pollutants and the quality of the air in cities like Los Angeles and New York.”\nIn fact, when the Clean Air Act was passed, scientists were warning of apocalyptic global cooling. There was even a scientific consensus.\nWhat Whitman and the Obama administration miss is that government’s powers are limited — by design.\nThey argue that Congress is divided — but that’s a reason for not expanding an agency’s powers.\nThere’s no justification for the EPA to seize more power.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Two deaths were reported in Haiti, bringing the total for the storm to at least four.\nMatthew had sustained winds of 140 mph as it moved north, up from 130 mph earlier in the day. The center was expected to pass just east of Jamaica and near or over the southwestern tip of Haiti early Tuesday before heading to eastern Cuba, the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said.\n“We are looking at a dangerous hurricane that is heading into the vicinity of western Haiti and eastern Cuba,” said Richard Pasch, a senior hurricane specialist with the center. “People who are impacted by things like flooding and mudslides hopefully would get out and relocate because that’s where we have seen loss of life in the past.”\nMany were taking that advice. In Jamaica, more than 700 people packed shelters in the eastern parish of St. Thomas and the Salvation Army said there were about 200 people at its shelters in Kingston as it put out a call for mattresses and cots. Many streets flooded throughout the country’s southeast.\nStill, many people chose to stick it out. Local Government Minister Desmond McKenzie said all but four residents of the Port Royal area near the Kingston airport refused to board buses and evacuate.\nFisherman Carlos Smith in St. Catherine Parish said he realized the storm appeared to be dangerous but he couldn’t abandon his property. “I want to leave anytime now and go to a shelter, but we can’t leave our things because that’s how we hustle and make a living,” he said.\nIn Haiti, authorities went door to door in the south coast cities of Les Cayes and Jérémie to make sure people were aware of the storm. At least 1,200 people were evacuated to shelters in churches and schools.\n“We are continuing to mobilize teams in the south to move people away from dangerous areas,” said Marie Alta Jean-Baptiste, head of Haiti’s civil protection agency.\nIn Port-au-Prince, schools were shuttered and residents lined up at gas stations and cleared out the shelves at supermarkets as a light rain fell in the capital. Some worried the city of roughly a million people would not fare well. “We are not prepared,” unemployed mason Fritz Achelus said as he watched water pool on a downtown street.\nAt least two fishermen died in rough water churned up by the storm, Jean-Baptiste said. A boat carrying one of the men capsized early Monday off the tiny southwestern fishing town of Saint Jean du Sud as he was trying to bring his wooden skiff to shore. The body of the other was recovered a short time later off the nearby town of Aquin after he apparently drowned.\nTheir deaths brought the total for the storm to at least four. One man died Friday in Colombia and a 16-year-old in St. Vincent and the Grenadines on Sept. 28 when the system passed through the eastern Caribbean.\nForecasters said the storm was expected to dump as much as 40 inches of rain on some isolated areas of Haiti, raising fears of deadly mudslides and floods in the heavily deforested country where many families live in flimsy houses with corrugated metal roofs.\nMatthew is one of the most powerful Atlantic hurricanes in recent history and briefly reached the top classification, Category 5, becoming the strongest hurricane in the region since Felix in 2007. The hurricane center said the storm appeared to be on track to pass east of Florida through the Bahamas, but it was too soon to predict with certainty whether it would threaten any spot on the U.S. East Coast.\n“Although our track is to the east of Florida, interests there should remain vigilant and we can’t rule out the possibility of impacts,” Pasch said.\nAs of 11 a.m. EDT, the storm was centered about 275 miles southwest of Haiti’s capital of Port-au-Prince and 205 miles southeast of Kingston. It was moving north at 6 mph.\nA hurricane warning was posted for the southeastern Bahamas. A hurricane watch was in effect for eastern Cuba, the southeastern Bahamas and the Turks and Caico Islands.\nAfter passing Jamaica and Haiti, Matthew’s center was expected to pass about 50 miles east of the U.S. Navy base at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where authorities evacuated about 700 spouses and children of service members on military transport planes to Florida.\nThe U.S. installation has a population of about 5,500, including 61 men held at the detention center for terrorism suspects. Navy Capt. David Culpepper, the base commander, said emergency shelters had been set up and authorities were bracing for 80 mph winds along with storm surge and heavy rain that could threaten some low-lying areas, including around the power plant and water desalination facility.\n“We have no choice but to prepare ourselves to take a frontal assault if you will,” Culpepper said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

One-month wind speed data obtained from wind and solar observation station which is constructed at Iki Ey- Campus of Anadolu University is used. A closed correlation is found between consecutive wind speed data that are collected for a period of 15 second. A very short time wind speed forecasting model is built by using two-input and one-output Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). First, some randomly selected data from whole data are discarded. Second, 10%, 20% and 30% of all data which are randomly selected from a predefined interval (3-6 m/sec) are discarded and discarded data, are forecasted. Finally, the data are fitted to Weibull distribution, Weibull distribution parameters are obtained and wind powers are estimated for all cases. The results show that the missing data has a significant effect on wind power estimation and must be taken into account in wind studies. Furthermore, it is concluded that ANFIS is a convenient tool for this kind of prediction.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

There will likely be some sunshine Wednesday, but it is to get cooler again before more spring-like weather arrives beginning on Friday.\n“We finally break into more sunshine and approaching seasonal temperatures for the weekend,” said Coulson. “Looking at the forecast into next week there are more indications that we could be closer to seasonal temperatures.”\nThe region, and much of southern Ontario, were hammered over the weekend that brought heavy snow, freezing rain and ice pellets that left roadways a slippery, sloppy mess.\nIn Grey-Bruce, much of it came in the form of snow, with 39.6 centimetres of the white stuff recorded at the Wiarton airport, a new single-day high for the month of April, besting the 26.8 cm of snow recorded there on April 10, 1992.\nAnd it continued Sunday with significant accumulations of ice pellets, and on Monday with heavy, wet snow.\nCoulson said as of Monday morning, 110 cm of snow and ice pellets had been reported at the Wiarton airport, shattering the previous snowfall record for the month of April, which was 45.4 cm in 2003. Weather station records go back to 1948.\n“This is way above what we would normally expect,” said Coulson. “Normal snowfall for the month of April for the area should be about 17.3 cm.”\nOn Monday all school buses across the two counties were cancelled. Heavy, wet snow fell throughout the morning in Owen Sound, though by the noon hour, those who had lost power in and around the city had the lights back on.\nAs of 1:30 p.m., the Hydro One storm centre was reporting outages across the province, including about 450 customers in the Durham area. There were also outages affecting customers in the Chesley, Markdale, Kincardine and Walkerton areas.\nIn Owen Sound, winter snow clearing operations usually wind down by mid-April, but the winter-like conditions were anticipated this weekend and the winter control shift has been extended a week until Friday.\n“We had our normal winter crews in and they have continued to basically work through the weekend to keep the roads cleared,” city manager Wayne Ritchie said on Monday. “Certainly I think the roads were less travelled so I think some people were heeding the advice to not go out unless you had to, and that certainly helped.”\nRitchie said the sheer weight of the snow and ice pellets that had fallen appeared to be the biggest obstacle, with residents finding it difficult to keep their driveways clear.\n“It is just that odd kind of occurrence where we have to keep going because the forecast is that this will continue,” said Ritchie. “Our crews continue to do what they do.”\nOwen Sound's manager of water and wastewater Matt Prentice said the city ordered more salt in on the weekend to ensure they had enough and provisions were made to pump fuel into the city's trucks in case power was lost, but power had not been lost by late Monday morning.\nPrentice said that they were down a plow for a short time on the weekend, but it was quickly back into service, while a sidewalk plow that was out of service was expected to be back on Monday.\nThe city also had a water distribution crew and a public works crew clearing catchbasins of snow and slush to allow water to drain.\n“We are trying to make sure we don't have flooding issues,” said Prentice. “That is part of the focus right now, but obviously we have all the equipment going as well, including sidewalk plows and snow plows.”\nPrentice said the weight of the snow was slowing down the sidewalk plows, while snowplows were running as normal.\n“We are on it as much as we can be anyway,” said Prentice. “Everything we have is on it anyway. We can't do any more than we already are.”\nPrentice said staff was keeping an eye on the forecast, which seemed to be jumping around a bit.\n“This snow we are having right now was supposed to be rain all day for us, so it is better this way I think than having continued rain and making the flooding worse,” said Prentice. “At the same time, January can go away now.”\nRitchie said the city had budgeted almost $1.6 million for snow removal in 2018 and already close to $1 million of that had been spent before the weekend.\n“Hopefully we have a good fall and we make it up,” said Ritchie. “We are definitely over budget at this time on winter maintenance.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It was also the coldest high temperature ever recorded in the month of May for Gaylord. They notched a record snowfall of 2 inches as well, beating the old record of 1 inch from 1971.\nTemperatures dipped into the 20s across the state last night. Although the word isn’t in yet about the effect those temps have had, an mLive article about the apple crop on Fruit Ridge explains:\nAs fruit trees begin to develop and blossom each spring, their ability to withstand cold temperatures is greatly reduced. As bloom nears, temperatures in the upper 20-degree can cause considerable damage to early blooming crop varieties.\nCurrently on the area’s Fruit Ridge — a band of ideal growing land northwest of Grand Rapids — several different varieties of apples are in bloom, said Armock. Also, sweet cherries are nearly past bloom in some areas, he said. Tart cherries are in the flowering stage of bloom, as well as some varieties of strawberries and blueberries.\nIn fact, across the state, growers have been making preparations for “potentially the largest crop of apples and cherries that we’ve ever seen,” said Armock, who estimated the 2013 crop could yield between 30 and 34 million bushels of apples this year, from Traverse City down to the state line.\nRead on for more, and here’s hoping their efforts at bringing in helicopters last night paid off. After the near total destruction of the apple, tart cherry and other crops last year, it would be a hard blow to stand.\nApril 9, 2013\nApril 8, 2013\nAs the air heats up we will get these warm and wave-tossing winds in the Great Lakes. The Chicago Tribune explains why spring brings us stronger lake breezes, the coastal wind that blows from the lake to land:\nIt’s powered by differences in density between warm (less dense) air over land and cool (more dense) air over Lake Michigan. Because temperature greatly affects air density, a lake breeze is most likely to form (and it will blow most strongly) when large temperature differences exist between the “land air” and “lake air.” Those temperature differences are greatest in April and May when the lake air is chilly because Lake Michigan waters still retain much of winter’s cold and the land air is warming strongly in response to the strengthening spring sun.\nMarch 29, 2013\nBLAM!!

You can have a look at on Google Maps.\nMore wicked weather on Michigan in Pictures!\nDecember 20, 2012\nMeteorologist Paul Gross of WDIV has a nice forecast for Michigan & Metro Detroit (although the weather maps were a little confusing to me). In Winter Storm Draco ends record snowless streaks across Midwest, Dr. Jeff Masters of the Weather Underground adds that:\nWinter Storm Draco is powering up over the Upper Midwest, and is poised to bring a resounding end to the record-length snowless streaks a number of U.S. cities have notched this year. Blizzard warnings are posted over portions of Colorado, Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa, Illinois, and Wisconsin, and snowfall amounts of up to a foot are expected in some of the affected regions. While the heavy snow will create dangerous travel conditions, the .5″ – 1.5″ of melted water equivalent from the the storm will provide welcome moisture for drought-parched areas of the Midwest.\n…Average water levels on Lake Michigan and Lake Huron are near their lowest December levels ever recorded, preliminary data from NOAA’s Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory indicate. The U.S. has had its warmest and 12th driest year on record, according to NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center. It should be no surprise, then, that a number of major cities have set records for their longest period without snow. Most of these streaks have come to and end (or will do so in the next day or two) because of Winter Storm Draco.\nDraco? You might be wondering when & why we started naming winter storms. The answer is actually due to social media:\nA new naming system put in place by The Weather Channel has its roots in social media to make it easier for people to communicate and share information about winter storms. The network is the first to name them, similar to how tropical storms and hurricanes have been referenced for years.\n“In addition to providing information about significant winter storms by referring to them by name, the name itself will make communication and information sharing in the constantly expanding world of social media much easier,” The Weather Channel meterologist Tom Niziol wrote on the site. “As an example, hash tagging a storm based on its name will provide a one-stop shop to exchange all of the latest information on the impending high-impact weather system.”\nMind your dragons folks and enjoy the last day of the 13th b’ak’tun cause the next time doesn’t roll around for 394.25 years!\nMore Michigan blizzards on Michigan in Pictures.\nNovember 19, 2012\nSome of the first snows of the 2012-2013 winter have visited Michigan, so it’s probably a good time to have a look at what Old Man Winter might have up his sleeve this winter. The Winter 2013 forecast from “Caleb Weatherbee”* of the Farmer’s Almanac is calling for a split in the nation’s weather with warmer and drier conditions in the West and cold & snow in the East & Midwest. The Freep takes a closer look at the winter forecast saying:\nIn a forecast sure to delight Michigan’s snow sport industries, the almanac is predicting plenty of snow, with temperatures 2 to 4 degrees colder than average. It estimates the first snow will come Nov. 7 in some parts of the Great Lakes — and a major storm of up to 8 inches will blast the Great Lakes on Jan. 20-23.\nSo far, so good I guess. While I’m not a meteorologist, it seems like warm, dry air in the west and colder, wetter air in the east could make for some exciting weather for Michigan. Someone who is a meteorologist is Dr. Jeff Masters of the Weather Underground. In his interesting and informative Forecast for Winter 2012-2013, Jeff notes that NOAA’s predictions suggest the same warmer & drier conditions for the west (with a wider area covered). He walks through the many factors that can affect winter weather, ultimately concluding:\nI’m often asked by friends and neighbors what my forecast for the coming winter is, but I tell them to flip a coin, or catch some woolley bear caterpillars for me so I can count their stripes and make a woolley bear winter forecast (this year’s Woolley Worm Festival in Banner Elk, North Carolina is this weekend, so we’ll know then what the official Woolley Worm winter forecast is.) Making an accurate winter forecast is very difficult, as the interplay between El Niño, the AO/NAO, the AMO, Arctic sea ice loss, and the 11-year sunspot cycle is complex and poorly understood. I’ve learned to expect the unexpected and unprecedented from our weather over the past few winters; perhaps the most unexpected thing would be a very average winter during 2012 – 2013.\n*FYI, Caleb Weatherbee is the official forecaster for the Farmers’ Almanac. His name is actually a pseudonym that has been passed down & shared by generations of Almanac prognosticators.\nNovember 10, 2012\nChipping Ice on the City of Flint, photo by Captain John Meissner\nWikipedia explains that the Armistice Day Blizzard struck November 11 (Armistice Day) and November 12, 1940. The intense early-season “Panhandle hook” winter storm cut a 1,000-mile-wide path through the middle of the country from Kansas to Michigan. Carferries.com has a great article on The Armistice Day Storm of 1940 that begins:\nThe “storm” of November 11, 1940 was one of the worst storms in the recorded history of Lake Michigan. In all, the storm claimed 5 vessels, and 66 lives. The storm occurred on Armistice Day, which celebrated the end of World War I in 1918.\nThe storm hit late Monday afternoon, November 11th, with winds of hurricane proportions. The winds struck suddenly from the southwest at about 2:30 P.M. and were accompanied by drenching rain, which later changed to snow. The winds reached peak velocities of 75 miles per hour, the highest in local maritime history. Telephone and power lines were down by the hundreds around Mason County. Several local firms had “gaping” holes where roofs once were. Trees were uprooted, small buildings were overturned, and brick walls were toppled, causing at least 1 serious injury. Very few places escaped without damage. Ludington, on the morning of November 12th, appeared to be a deserted city.\nThe Pere Marquette carferry City of Flint 32, attempted to make the harbor but wound up on the beach about 300 yards from the shore. She was ordered by her relief captain, Jens Vevang, to be scuttled to avoid being pounded by the incoming seas. On November 12th, a breeches buoy was strung and 27 year old crewman Ernest Delotowski of 406 First Street, Ludington, was brought ashore. Delatowski made a good portion of the trip in the icy waters of Lake Michigan. As a precautionary measure, he was taken to Paulina Stearns Hospital and was released later that day. He said he carried a message with him, but it got lost in the water. Later the buoy was used to carry a message to the ship, and then crewman Luther Ryder of S. Washington Avenue (Ludington) was brought ashore.\nYou can read more including first-hand recollections of the storm and also see more photos taken by Captain John Meissner and also photos of the grounding and other wrecks as a result of the storm at carferries.com.\nMore shipwrecks on Michigan in Pictures.\nNovember 8, 2012\nGlen Willis of the Pointe Aux Barques Lighthouse Society has an excellent article on The Great Storm of 1913 that explains that most historians agree that the most significant and most dreadful storm on Lake Huron took place over the weekend of November 8-10, 1913. Known by all mariners simply as “The Storm”, it was first detected on the western end of Lake Superior on Thursday, November 6th then progressed rapidly south and east, dropping temperatures and spawning marine warnings.\nAt Pointe aux Barques as the temperature dropped, it began to rain. As the wind picked up the rain turned to sleet. The sleet began to ice up everything it touched. The waves offshore quickly reached 10 to 12 feet, and then more. Then the snow came, thick and wind driven. Shipmasters out on the lake were finding sailing conditions that were unlike any they had seen before. The sleet that had coated their vessels turned the pilothouse windows opaque. It sealed and froze the doorways. To step outside a cabin meant that the skin would be painfully pelted by frozen bits of sleet & snow…\nBy midday Sunday at Pointe aux Barques, the snow was so thick and so heavily driven by the wind that vessels out on the lake could not see the rays of the light. At nearby Harbor Beach waves had already destroyed some lakefront buildings and had run the 552-foot D.O. Mills ashore. At mid-lake the wheelsman on the 500 foot Howard M. Hannah, Jr. found that the forward motion of the ship had ceased and that the bow had fallen off into the trough of the waves. Without enough power to drive it the ship was at the mercy of the elements. Waves were higher than the ship is tall and as they crashed down upon the ship the windows and the cabins were stove in. The ship was not under command and as it drifted into Saginaw Bay the master could see the flash of the Port Austin Reef Light. He then knew that his ship would not be saved.\nPointe aux Barques is the oldest continuously operating Light on the Great Lakes, and the Pointe Aux Barques Lighthouse Society preserves the light and operates a museum.

Lake Michigan did record the second highest wave height ever of 21.7 feet, and of course brought out surfers to test their skills against some big waves.\nOctober 29, 2012\nAs the eastern seaboard braces for Hurricane Sandy, a storm of possibly unprecedented power, I thought I’d take a look back and see what the strongest October storm ever was. I didn’t have to look far, as it’s actually the Great Lakes storm of late October 2010:\nOn October 26, 2010, the USA recorded its lowest pressure ever in a continental, non-hurricane system, though its pressure was consistent with a category three hurricane. The powerful system was dubbed the “Chiclone” by the media as it hit the Chicago area particularly strongly, as well as Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan. It was also meteorologically referred to as a bombogenesis due to the rapid drop of barometric pressure experienced.\n…The storm also produced some of the highest officially recorded waves by weather buoys stationed in Lakes Superior and Michigan. Specifically, on Wednesday, October 27, 2010, buoy no. 45136, operated by Environment Canada, in northern Lake Superior recorded a significant wave height of 26.6 feet (this is average height of 1/3 of the highest waves over an hour), and buoy no. 45002, operated by the National Data Buoy Center (NDBC), recorded a significant wave height of 21.7 feet in northern Lake Michigan. The NDBC and many models indicate that multiplying significant wave height by a factor of approximately 1.3 will equal the approximate average height of the highest 1/10 of waves recorded -here that would translate into such average wave heights of approximately 34.5 feet and 28.2 feet on Lakes Superior and Michigan respectively [please verify]. This would appear consistent with the NOAA forecast for northern Lake Michigan calling for 21-26 foot waves that day. The persistence and strength of the storm’s westerly winds also piled the waters of Lake Michigan along the Michigan shoreline leading to declines in lake levels on the Illinois and Wisconsin side of the lake. Based on NOAA lake level sensors, an updated analysis of Wednesday, October 27, 2010 water levels on Lake Michigan revealed a two-day decrease of 42 inches at Green Bay, WI and 19 inches at Calumet Harbor, IL—while NOAA sensors at Ludington, MI and Mackinaw City, MI measured lake level rises of 7 and 19 inches respectively.\nA 78 mph gust was recorded the afternoon of October 27, 2010 at the Harrison-Dever Crib, three miles offshore of Chicago in Lake Michigan.\nYou can read a detailed account of the damage in the October North American Storm Complex on Wikipedia and also read Dr. Jeff Masters’ analysis of the storm at Weather Underground.\nMore Michigan weather on Michigan in Pictures.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

To lighten moods up for the holidays it stayed cold and snowed enough to keep the mood jolly. Yep - right through the new year.I wonder if the last week can see so much extreme weather here in the PNW. Here we exceeded a foot and a half for 14+ days. Well it built up over 10 days - but it never melted which is the point.\nSunday we watched 4\" fall and stick. Mind you since Snow Storm 2008 I have not been to work for 18 days. Looking at 19 was not a thing I wanted to face.\nMonday our faux snow plow (truck w/ blade on front) made it's way around at 10ish. Never mind that I didn't see a single plow in the neighborhood until 11 days into snowfall the week before. Rain is falling helping to melt the slush that is making life miserable.\nTuesday wind has hit our little neck of the woods. High wind. Loud wind. Howling wind. Power outing wind. Now the rain starts.\nWednesday rain has hit arrived. The great winter squal we all know around here. Rain slicing sideways across the roads, windows, walkways; smashing in waves and rolling in the blustering wind. Trees feel the fury of the blustering wind and angy answers in the downpour of rain.\nCan't wait to see what tomorrow will bring us. I'm personally hoping when I drive down my little hill I won't see a 3' pile of snow of snow plow gunk. That and that the city will send a street cleaner out here to suck up all the sand and salt they left on the road.

That means it cost the country at least a billion dollars in recovery.\nThe derecho was one of 20 U.S. disasters that totaled at least $1 billion in damages in 2021.\nThe serial derecho was the final billion dollar disaster of the past year. It also marked the first time in U.S. history a derecho was recorded during the month of December anywhere in the country. Due to the event, the National Weather Service reports at least 61 tornadoes hit Iowa on December 15th. That easily makes it the largest tornado outbreak in Iowa history, an absolutely astounding feat considering the time of year. The storms killed at least one person in Iowa with the fatality occurring in Benton County.\nAs you can see Iowa has had its share of billion dollar disasters since 1980 with the 1993 floods and 2020 derecho leading the way with damages exceeding 10 billion.\nDespite being a significantly larger state, Illinois has never had a year since 1980 where damages have topped more than 6.5 billion\nNationally, since 1980 there have been 310 billion dollar events claiming 15,180 lives\nLast year alone, the 20 billion dollar disasters cost 145 billion and took 688 lives.\nLAST CALL FOR WEATHER SCHOOL TSwails.com is offering a very special opportunity for you to learn first-hand the ins and outs of severe weather forecasting with one of the most experienced meteorologists in the country and a talented team of experts. Get the agenda, more details, and limited session seats by clicking the banner below.\nOUT WITH THE COLD, IN WITH THE SNOW...\nEver notice when it gets super cold, the snow makes that really gnarly hard crunchy sound when you drive or walk on it. The colder it is, the louder the crunch. That distinct sound is the result of ice crystals shattering. Snow, as you know, is water frozen in crystalline form. But when the temperature of the snow is barely below freezing, the crystals are weak and not rigid. The colder it is, the stronger the crystals are, and the more noise they make when crushed. When it is well below zero on a calm night, walk on snow and listen, it's like walking on fine china (if you've ever done that).\nIf you're out and about early Friday those crystals will be crunching to beat the band with temperatures in some of my NW counties that will be 15 to perhaps 20 below zero. In fact, most of the area near and west of the Mississippi should end up 10 below or colder thanks to light winds and a 1 to 6\" snow cover. Where there's pockets of bare ground in some of my SE counties readings will be more in that range of zero to 5 below. The EURO depicts this for temperatures to start the day Friday morning.\nThose readings are as much as 40 degrees below normal in parts of central Iowa.\nAfter that frigid start, temperatures should warm with some January sunshine to 10 in the north to about 20 in the far south. Winds will gradually turn in from the south but remain under 10 mph all day and thus wind chills won't be much of a factor.\nCLIPPED BY A CLIPPER\nSaturday some noticeable moderation is expected as highs return to the 20s areawide. Way down south where snow cover is less of an issue a few places may reach 30. Then the focus turns to a clipper which arrives Friday night and departs early Saturday. As of late Thursday night, models are in good agreement that the track of the system sends a surface low over the SE tip of Iowa late Friday night. That generates a snow band that catches roughly the NE 1/2 to 2/3rds of my area. The Quad Cities is just on the southern fringe of the band. The SW third of the region looks to miss out on the action. Moisture content is nothing to write home about temperatures will be cold so the potential is there for a swath of fluffy 1-3\" snows (perhaps as much as 4 in a few spots). The snow band is not especially wide so any deviation in track would have an impact on amounts and that will be monitored closely the next 48 hours.\nThat said, confidence is growing that at least the NE half of my area will do some shoveling and winter weather advisories are a good bet at some point. Here's what the latest guidance is indicating for snow amounts. As always, this is just raw model output and not hard forecasts. Those will come in another day when the final track is firmly established. At this point, my money is on the EURO which has varied little in its track and totals the past 48 hours.\nThe 3K NAM\nThe 12K NAM\nThe Weather Prediction Center has issued these odds for an inch or more of snow.\nWith the clipper gone early Saturday, partial clearing is likely in the afternoon. Conditions will remain quiet and cold through Sunday. Highs Sunday will range from the low to mid teens central and north to near 30 in the south where no fresh snow cover exists.\nSunday night another clipper rolls across the upper Midwest. With the track through Minnesota the heavier snow band stays just to the north, although some light snow may graze the north near HWY 20 where up to an inch is a possibility. Temperatures will rise Sunday night with southerly winds in advance of the system allowing highs Monday to climb into the mid 30s north to mid 40s south before another Arctic front plows rapidly southeast. Readings will fall in the north by afternoon and then crash in all areas Monday night when sub-zero lows are again possible from about the Quad Cities northwest. Wind chills should return to the range of 10-25 below by Tuesday morning. That leaves us with a couple of very cold days Tuesday and Wednesday with highs likely to remain in the single digits and low teens.\nThat is where the story ends with me and this post. I'll have the latest on the clipper and its impacts in my next go round. Until then thank god it's Friday and roll weather...TS\nWell, that's about all I have in me for this post.

While the United States primarily uses the Fahrenheit scale, most of the rest of the world uses the Celsius scale. This can lead to confusion when trying to convert temperatures between the two units.\nIn this guide, we will show you how to convert 80 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius, as well as provide a general understanding of temperature conversions between Fahrenheit and Celsius.\nTo convert 80 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius, you can use the following formula: (°F – 32) x 5/9 = °C. Plugging in 80 for °F, the calculation is (80-32) x 5/9 = 26.67°C. So 80 degrees Fahrenheit is equivalent to 26.67 degrees Celsius.\nIt’s important to note that the size of the degree units are different in Fahrenheit and Celsius, Fahrenheit degree is bigger than Celsius degree. This means that a temperature change of 1 degree Fahrenheit is not the same as a temperature change of 1 degree Celsius. For example, a change of 1 degree Fahrenheit is equivalent to a change of 0.56 degrees Celsius.\nWhen it comes to temperature conversions, it’s also important to understand the different reference points for freezing and boiling. On the Fahrenheit scale, water freezes at 32 degrees and boils at 212 degrees. On the Celsius scale, water freezes at 0 degrees and boils at 100 degrees.\nIt’s also important to keep in mind that temperature conversions can be affected by atmospheric pressure and altitude. This is especially important to consider when dealing with high altitude regions or temperature measurements in extreme environments such as the polar regions, or high altitude regions.\nIn conclusion, converting 80 degrees Fahrenheit to Celsius is a simple process that can be done using the formula (°F – 32) x 5/9 = °C. Understanding the difference between Fahrenheit and Celsius and the reference points for freezing and boiling can help in making temperature conversions.\nCelsius to Fahrenheit Conversion Table\nThis Post Has One Comment","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Although it is bad news that the massive storm, predicted to be one of the worst in a century, will be traveling faster and producing more devastating winds when it moves ashore, it now looks as if it could make landfall before high tide, which could lessen the storm surge somewhat. But the public advisory issued from the National Hurricane Center in Miami lends itself to the possibilities of what some, like Connecticut Gov. Dan Malloy called the “most catastrophic that we have faced and been able to plan for in any of our lifetimes,” according to CNN.\nStill, Hurricane Sandy, which is being compared to Hurricane Bob of 1991, could be far more catastrophic in its impact. Hurricane Bob was considered a “perfect storm,” a rare concurrence of factors that produce a particular disastrous result, but left most of its force out over the ocean. However, it did make landfall and, according to Massachusetts’ Berkshire Eagle, still slammed the coastline with winds raging at 115 mph. It came ashore at New Bedford, Mass., causing over $1 billion in damages to the southern New England coast.\nBut that hurricane spent most of its strength out over the open water…\nAccording to the Advisory, Hurricane Sandy, at present a Category 1 storm, is expected to produce a storm surge in the New York area that could top out at 11 feet, which is considered life-threatening and fears are that a sustained surge might damage New York’s subway system. Winds are expected to reach a sustained speed of 90 mph, with gusts moving much faster. Winds at higher elevations move faster, and tall buildings will undoubtedly be impacted by them. In addition to the storm surge and the winds, heavy rains are expected in the mid-Atlantic states (between 4 and 8 inches but possibly up to 12 inches) and as much as 3 inches in the New York and New England area (with possible isolated rainfall areas receiving as much as 5 inches).\nWith such conditions imminent, it is estimated that some 60 million people could be affected all along the East Coast. The New York City area itself encompasses over 22 million people.\nThe hurricane has already taken 67 lives, 51 in Haiti alone as it made its way across the Caribbean. With the dire warnings of what could become the worst storm to hit the East Coast in history, New York City began battening down, leaving the streets of the bustling metropolis with only a scattering of vehicle and pedestrian traffic.\nAs a precaution, a mandatory evacuation of New York City’s low-lying areas was ordered Sunday by Mayor Michael Bloomberg. The Wall Street Journal reported that the subway was closed at 7 p.m. Sunday evening. All the city’s schools were announced closed for Monday.\nAlthough the evacuation was mandatory, Bloomberg said there would be no arrests for those refusing to leave. “But they are being, I would argue, very selfish,” Bloomberg intoned. “They are not only endangering their own lives, they’re endangering the lives of others because in an emergency we aren’t going to leave them to die. We’re going to come in and save them.”\nThe city opened 72 evacuation centers to prepare for the influx of evacuees Sunday morning.\nIn related news, over 7,500 flights have been grounded due to the storm as well. In Virginia, Pennsylvania, and New York, over 4,400 National Guardsmen have either been called up or soon will be. In New York, according to the Associated Press, 1,000 Guardsmen are already in place with the governor preparing to call up another 1,000.\nIt is as yet unknown just exactly what kind or the extent of damage that will be caused by Hurricane Sandy. However, it is turns out to be the “Frankenstorm” it is being labeled, it could very well set records for devastation.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It would appear that the summer of 2022 is going to begin quite early, as we are going to have multiple opportunities to approach or break record high temperatures over the next several days, with honestly no real confident end in sight.\nLast night’s storms packed a punch in parts of the area, mainly up toward Huntsville. For the rest of us, just some rain.\nYou can see rain totals on the map above, as estimated by radar. Mostly a half-inch to an inch north (more north of Conroe) and a quarter-inch to three-quarters of an inch south (highest in Chambers County). The only real “losers” with yesterday’s storms were south of Sugar Land, across southeast Fort Bend and much of Brazoria, Wharton, and Matagorda Counties, which saw less than a quarter-inch of rain.\nAny rain is good rain at this point, so we’ll take it, as the drought monitor update released yesterday continues to show drought holding over most of Texas. Locally, the drought situation got a touch worse through Tuesday, with some expansion of drought south of Houston. Given the lack of rain there yesterday, this will almost certainly expand further next week.\nWe are now seeing levels of “extreme” drought show up in Matagorda County. With very little rain expected over the next 7 to 10 days, along with extremely hot weather for May, it is possible we see drought expand rapidly through the month. We will be watching this closely.\nSo with the rain behind us, we now step into summer-like weather. We should see sunshine today after perhaps a little morning fog burns off in spots. Highs will bump up into the low-90s.\nWe expect a sun-filled weekend, along with near-record heat for May. Temperatures will be in the mid to upper-90s both days with morning lows in the 70s. Combined with the humidity, it will feel like it’s over 100 degrees at times this weekend. Stay hydrated. Stay in shade. Our bodies need time to adjust to these levels of heat.\nAt this time, there is no reason to forecast any real rain through Friday. This means it will be sunny and hot with no relent. Expect highs well into the 90s and lows in the 70s each day. We’re not talking cheap 90s either; these will probably be 93-96 degree type days each day. In fact, if we look at the NWS forecast into next week and compare it to the record highs for those dates, you’ll see we’re currently forecast to tie or break records from Saturday through Thursday.\n|Day||IAH Forecast High||Record High (Year)|\nWe have not had an early to mid-May heat wave of this intensity in quite a few years, with only one record high set in the 2000s, one of the lengthier stretches that has not seen records broken much in recent years. So again, please stay cool this weekend and be extra cognizant of your exposure to the heat this early in the season. With that, some tips!\nA Message From Our Sponsor, Reliant\nAs Houstonians get ready for our first taste of summer with temps in the high 90s starting this weekend, now is the perfect time to talk about how to prepare for the heat. Our sponsor Reliant shared the below helpful tips for staying cool while managing your energy usage.\n- Follow the 4×4 principle. Set your thermostat four degrees higher when you’re away from home for more than four hours to save on energy usage and costs.\n- Rotate your ceiling fan counterclockwise for a wind chill effect. This can make the temperature in a room feel up to 4 degrees cooler allowing you to be more comfortable and adjust your thermostat to save money. Don’t forget to turn off your fan when leaving the room.\n- Use blinds or curtains to reduce solar heat gain by up to 50 percent. Direct sunlight can increase the demand on your AC by as much as 30 percent.\n- Switch out your old light bulbs for new LEDs to light your home efficiently. Unlike incandescent bulbs that generate heat, LED bulbs are cool to the touch, last longer and use 70-90 percent less electricity.\n- Schedule an HVAC checkup. Now is a good time to arrange a tune-up with an HVAC service professional to ensure your system is running at its best. Just as you wouldn’t take your car out for a long road trip without getting serviced, you don’t want to enter summer without your AC system being properly maintained.\nFind additional energy efficiency tips by clicking here.\n13 thoughts on “Summer in Houston is unofficially underway”\nA couple of years ago, you noted the earliest 100 degree day in Houston on record was June 2, 2011. Is there any chance we break that unfortunate record within the next week?\nSeems unlikely. Especially after looking at some of the latest model data that actually cuts these forecast highs by 2-3 degrees (great timing!). To get 100 this time of year, you either need an historically hot air mass (while hot, this isn’t quite that) or really dry air, a lingering hot air mass and offshore winds to drop down humidity (dry air heats up quicker and more effectively than humid air). We’re not quite seeing that right now.\nFour inches of rain in Reliance area of Brazos County.\nYou guys were doing so well this winter, now you’re hitting us with July in early May. What happened?\nI’m just here for the “Go back to Chicago if you can’t take the heat” comments!\nDallas generally gets even hotter.\nI had a feeling we would pay for having such a mild rainy summer last year. Just about every time we have a cooler than normal summer the next one will be a killer. I have a feeling we will probably have multiple 100+ degree days this summer.\nI am somewhat confused I have always been told for our ceiling fans to be counterclockwise in the winter and clockwise in summer I just read that you said that during this heat spell our ceiling fan should be counterclockwise why\nI made a comment earlier about ceiling fan rotation I don’t know what I was thinking at the time counterclockwise in the summer thank you\nI am curious why IAH is used as the UHI is terrible at airports. Thank you.\nMost official temperature readings are taken at airports for major US cities. Why this came to be the “official” site for temperature readings in so many places, I’m not sure short of the fact that airports need weather info obviously. Could we do it better? Absolutely. Does it make much difference now? Honestly, not really.\nIt matters. This is not the place to debate. I enjoy your site. Still rocking my Space City Weather vacuum mug everyday. Thank you. Carry on.\n5:20 pm….. Why is it raining cats and dogs at my house in Sienna right now? Lots or thunder and lightning too. I thought the rains were over…… Oh well. And it got up to 95 here earlier this afternoon. The feels like temperature was 110 with the humidity and dew point of about 80. Summer is really here.

This will serve as a general backcountry avalanche advisory issued for the Turnagain Arm (Turnagain Pass is the core advisory area). Local variations always occur. Note: We issue advisories 5 days a week Wednesday-Sunday.\nMOUNTAIN WEATHER ROUND UP\nIn the last 24 hours…\n-The Center Ridge weather station at 1800 feet in Turnagain Pass-\nStill no data. Hopefully it will be back up and running early next week thanks to the Natural Resources Conservation Service. Those guys are awesome. They keep most of the SNOTEL weather stations running around Alaska.\n-The Grandview weather station at 1100 feet along the railroad tracks-\nRecorded 0 inches of water or new snow. Current temp is -8 degrees F (no change from yesterday)\n-Sunburst weather station at 3800 feet in Turnagain Pass-\nRecorded moderate NW winds in the mid to upper teens. Current temperature is -9 degrees F (11 degrees colder then yesterday)\n-Surface Analysis Maps-\nThere is a weak low pressure system centered in the gulf (1000mb). Cordova may receive snow showers today as a result of this system. AnCNFAIC Staff 978 mb low is creeping this way below the Aleutians. Strong high pressure remains over south central AK for the weekend.\nLight snow showers heading a shore near Cordova. The rest looks pretty clear.\n-General Weather Observations-\nCompared to yesterday…Temperatures dropped again over night. All stations are reporting -4 to -9 deg F. Winds have picked up slightly, predominately out of the NW, 10 to 20 mph.\nPRIMARY AVALANCHE CONCERNS\n-October Facets on/near the ground\nSECONDARY AVALANCHE CONCERNS\n-Glide Cracks (see photos)\nWATCH OUT SITUATIONS\n-Big steep rollovers\n-Shallow snow connected to deeper snow (photo gallery)\n-If you hear any “whumpfing” or feel any collapsing, then get to safe terrain immediately and call it a day.\nAVALANCHE AND SNOWPACK DISCUSSION\nNot much change today or the last few for that matter. If you venture into the cold this weekend you will find mostly clear skies and diamond like snow. Our snow surface is full of surface hoar and near surface facets. This surface condition is very important to remember as it will be our next week layer when buried.\nRight now, there are still some small slabs out there that are holding some energy, that could create small human-triggered avalanches on steep isolated terrain features.\nTerrain management remains the key to safety with our current snowpack. Thin early season snowpacks (like what we have right now) are not ready for the big lines that Alaska is famous for. There should be plenty of opportunities for that kind of terrain in the spring. Take a look at the weather charts in the photo gallery. You will see that we have less precip and less total snow than we have in the past couple years. We all need to keep our human factors in check and stick to planar slopes with clean runouts, and avoid steep or complex terrain. Use extra caution around rocks, gullies, or steep rollovers.\nWe have a grab bag of weak layers near the surface that will become a problem when the next big storm comes in….\n-The recent clear weather, calm winds and cold temps have created a new batch surface hoar from the highway to the ridgetops in certain areas. Try to take note of where you see these feathery crystals especially on top of those old stiff wind slabs. Let us know where you see this; so, we can pass the word on to everybody else, and have a better idea of where these potentially dangerous areas will be after the next big storm.\n-This cold weather has also created a bad temperature gradient in the top 1-2 feet (~40cm) of snow. Snow temperatures taken on Saturday on Sunburst (Thanks Bill) jive with snow temps taken in Main Bowl on Tuesday 12/30/08. Basically, this means that facets are forming in the current surface snow, which can become anCNFAIC Staff bad weak layer in the near future\n-There is also a mystery layer of buried surface hoar that formed about 11 days ago that got buried under a couple inches of new snow on 12/23 and 12/25. This layer was most widesread at mid elevations up to 2800 feet, but was also observed on ridgetops up to 3800 feet.\nAlthough the loose sugary facets that formed on the ground in October are showing signs of improved stability, this layer is still a concern for avalanches, especially during and after the next big storm. Every snowpit this season shows that our snowpack consists of a dense slab on top of a weak layer of facets. Most of our stability tests show good stability on that layer of October facets right now; however, snow pits do not tell the whole story, they are only part of the entire avalanche puzzle.\nThe weak layer of October facets failed during the last big storm (12/8/08) and resulted in large natural avalanches that propagated across very wide areas like Todd’s Run (see photo). This weak layer also failed with human-triggers 5 days after that storm near rocky and complex terrain near steep rollovers. These human-triggered avalanches were small relative to the entire slope and did not propagate very wide. They stayed isolated to specific terrain features, but these were very dangerous for people. I’m not sure, but these facets on the ground might still be an avalanche problem after the next big storm.

The county coroner confirms that Larry Agan, of Rome, died in surgery after a crash. He was driving on Old Highway 100 between Cave Spring and Cedartown when a tree fell on his truck.\nA tornado warning was issued for several counties, but by 7 p.m. storms started to weaken and a tornado watch for metro Atlanta was canceled.\nThe supercell storm was going strong for more than two hours, and as Severe Weather Team 2 chief meteorologist Glenn Burns tracked signs of rotation, he told residents to take precautions.\n\"Just be ready to act quickly,\" Burns said, telling those in the path of the storm to take shelter.\nHe advised viewers to stay away from doors and windows, head to the lowest floors of their homes and grab bicycle helmets. He also warned of dangerous straight-line winds.\nAuthorities confirmed quarter-inch hail falling at Atlanta's Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, which led to delays of up to 60 minutes. The emergency manager at the airport reported golf-ball-size hail and numerous cars with broken windshields.\nAround 6:30 p.m., Burns said there appeared to be a tornado in the area around State Highway 18 near the Meriwether/Pike County line.\n\"This is very likely a tornado. It is exhibiting all the characteristics of a tornado,\" he said.\nBeth Camp told Channel 2's Amy Napier Viteri that she and her 12-year-old daughter, Meredith, were watching Channel 2 Action News when they saw the storm moving toward their Concord community in Pike County. Within five minutes it hit.\n\"It was bad. It was loud and we could hear things moving around outside,\" Camp said. \"It was enough time for us to get in there get a flashlight. Get in the bathroom and kind of hunker down. It sounded like the windows were just gone and it sounded like things were moving in the house.\"\nThe Camps' home lost power but wasn't damaged otherwise.\nJust down the\nstreet, they showed Viteri a storage facility ripped apart by the strong winds.\nCamp said the storm actually picked up\nthe shed and flattened it where it landed. Metal roofing protecting equipment ripped off in chunks, landing throughout the field.\n\"It's going to be a long day tomorrow,\"\nEarlier Monday evening, crews could be seen removing an SUV after a deadly accident on Highway 19 near the Spalding County line.\nThe coroner told Viteri one person died after being ejected from the car. The sheriff said the\naccident, which happened just before the storm hit, is under investigation.\nHe said there are several homes damaged by the storm but no reports of any other injuries.\nIn Floyd County, the severe storms leveled a small mini-mart.\nStacey McRae told Channel 2's Eric Philips she was working the register at the Silver Creek mini-mart when the winds began to blow and the powerful storm came through.\nMcRae said it was instant pandemonium, with inventory flying every which way.\nOne employee and a customer were able to get into a brick bathroom, but McRae said she knew she couldn't make it that far, so she headed for the inside of a cooler for shelter. A customer followed.\n\"And there were wine bottles behind us, hitting us, as we were trying to get in,\" McRae said. \"We got there and we started praying.\"\nAs the storm approached, Jeremy Baker, who lives just across the street, saw the system heading down the street, describing it like a bad dream.\n\"It was heart-rendering really,\" Baker said.\nLuckily no one was injured when the storm hit. It\ndid, however, destroy the store.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The North East also experienced rail problems, with buses having to replace trains on some routes. Meanwhile, councils have placed thousands of tonnes of sandbags, water pumps and emergency accommodation at the ready.\nSome local authorities have even been loaning washing machines, cookers and fridges to those whose homes have been devastated by the weather, while several highways teams have also suspended roadworks to concentrate on sweeping away debris and rescuing stranded motorists.\nRising groundwater levels are also threatening to leave homes in Winterbourne Abbas, Dorset, under water.\nForecasters said the heavy rain would soon abate but with some areas already saturated, any wet weather could still cause problems. Meanwhile, freezing temperatures are expected to take hold of the UK over the next few days, with snow forecast to hit many coastal areas. The Pennines have already seen some sleet, while further wintry showers have been predicted across high ground in Scotland.\nGemma Plumb, a spokeswoman for MeteoGroup, the weather division of the Press Association, said: \"Although the rain was lighter last night than previous days, the rain fell on already saturated surfaces, adding to the risk of flooding. It will become increasingly drier in most places as we go through today, with just East Anglia and south east England holding on to the rain. By the end of the day most of the rain would have lifted but temperatures will feel noticeably colder this week, dropping to freezing overnight.\"\nBut the drier weather is unlikely to mark the end of the heavy rain, which looks set to return at the beginning of next week.\nThe continued flooding risk follows claims that hundreds of thousands of homes may be left without flood cover due to a row between ministers and the insurance industry over how future flooding bills would be covered. The Association of British Insurers had claimed that talks about a \"safety net\" deal to ensure those in flood-risk areas can continue to afford their policies were at \"crisis point\".\nEnvironment Secretary Owen Paterson said talks were ongoing - and that ministers were committed to securing a good deal for both householders and the taxpayer. Speaking in the Commons, Mr Paterson said it was too soon to quantify the full scale of the damage while the rain continued.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

While predicting ‘normal’ to ‘above normal’ rainfall over the most parts of south, west, central and northwest regions, IMD predicted ‘below normal’ rainfall over parts of east and northeast regions in the next two months.\nThis could adversely impact rice sowing activities in key growing states in eastern regions. Rice sowing in the ongoing kharif season was 23.15 million hectare (MH) till last week, which was 13% less than the year ago level. “Rainfall over the country during the August-September period of southwest monsoon season is most likely to be ‘normal’ — 94 to 106% of long period average (LPA),” IMD said.\nThe rainfall deficiency in the east and northeast region has been 14% so far, while the cumulative rainfall received in all the four regions during June 1-August 1 was 487 mm, which was 7% more than (above normal) the LPA of 454 mm for the same period. Deficient rainfall in Uttar Pradesh (46%), Jharkhand (49%), Bihar (36%) and West Bengal (24%) so far against the benchmark has adversely impacted rice sowing.\n“In case of Bihar and Jharkhand, we expect below normal rainfall, while West Bengal and Uttar Pradesh could get normal rainfall, thus reducing the current deficiency in the next two months,” Mrutyunjay Mohapatra, Director General, IMD said.Lower areas under paddy have been reported from states including West Bengal (1.6 MH), Uttar Pradesh (0.6 MH), Bihar (0.5 MH) and Jharkhand (0.4 MH).\nAccording to BV Krishna Rao, president, Rice Exporters Association, prices of preferred varieties of rice such as Sona masoori and Ponni in the domestic market have witnessed an increase of around 15% in the last two months because of lower sowing.However, officials say, the country may not face any shortage of the staple grain, as rice sowing in Punjab, Haryana, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Odisha have been more than last year.\nCentral India, south peninsula and northwest regions have received 15%, 28% and 4% more rainfall, respectively than LPA till Monday which has given a boost to sowing of kharif crops such pulses, oilseeds and coarse cereals, sugar and cotton. Overall summer crops including paddy, pulses, oilseeds, coarse cereals, sugarcane and cotton have been sown in 82.34 million hectare so far, about 2% higher than the corresponding period last year. The kharif crops sowing are expected to continue till the middle of August.\nIn April, 2022, the government had set a record foodgrain production target of 328 million tonne (MT) in the 2022-23 crop year (July-June) against 314 MT of production in 2021-22.Rice production target of 112 MT in the ongoing kharif season of the 2022-23 crop year (July-June).\nAs many as 29 out of the country’s 36 meteorological subdivisions recorded rainfall in the range of normal (96-104%), above normal (104-110%) and excess (110% and above) range against the LPA. Only 7 subdivisions have received deficient rainfall this monsoon seasonThe adequate and well distributed rainfall during monsoon months (June-September) helps in boosting kharif crop production besides ensuring sufficient moisture for the rabi or winter crops.\nIMD on Monday predicted heavy rainfall over Sikkim, Tamil Nadu, Assam, Punjab, west Rajasthan, Odisha, West Bengal, Rayalaseema, Kerala Himachal Pradesh, west Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Bihar, Arunachal Pradesh , Telangana and south interior Karnataka.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The moon will set before midnight on the peak Perseids nights.\nGet ready to start looking up this summer.Skip to next paragraph\nSubscribe Today to the Monitor\nFor Northern Hemisphere observers, the latter half of July on into August is usually regarded as \"meteor viewing season,\" with one of the best displays of the year reaching its peak in mid-August.\nThe annual Perseid meteor shower is beloved by everyone from meteor enthusiasts to summer campers, and 2013 will be an excellent one for the Perseids. The moon will set before midnight on the peak nights of Aug. 11 and 12, meaning dark skies for prospective observers. [See Amazing Perseid Meteor Shower Photos of 2012]\nThis week, however, let's concentrate on some of the lesser-known summer meteor displays.\nRECOMMENDED: Are you scientifically literate? Take our quiz\nIn general, Earth encounters richer meteoric activity during the second half of the year, and stargazers are more likely to see twice as many meteors per hour in the predawn hours as compared with the evening hours. During the premidnight hours, the United States is on the \"trailing\" side of the Earth due to our orbital motion through space. Any meteoric particle generally must have an orbital velocity greater than that of the Earth to \"catch\" the planet.\nAfter midnight, when the United States is turned onto the Earth's \"leading\" side, any particle that lies along the Earth's orbital path will enter the planet's atmosphere as a meteor. As such, objects collide with the atmosphere at speeds of 7 to 45 miles per second (11 to 17.7 kilometers per second), their energy of motion rapidly dissipates in the form of heat, light, and ionization, creating short-lived streaks of light popularly referred to as \"shooting stars.\"\nSummertime meteors, occasionally flitting across your line of sight, are especially noticeable between mid-July and the third week of August. Between Aug. 3 and 15, there are no fewer than six different active minor displays. These six meteor showers are listed in the table below.\nThe actual number of meteors a single observer can see in an hour depends strongly on sky conditions, but the only equipment you'll need to see them are your eyes and a modest amount of patience.\nThe rates given in the table are based on a limited star magnitude of +6.5 (considered to be the faintest star visible to the naked eye without the use of binoculars or a telescope), an experienced observer, and an assumption that the radiant is directly overhead.\nThe radiant is the place in the sky where the paths of meteors, if extended backward, would intersect when plotted on a star chart. Your clenched fist held at arm's length is equal to roughly 10 degrees on the sky. So if the radiant is 30 degrees (\"three-fists\") above the horizon, the hourly rate is halved; at 15 degrees, it is one-third.\nWhile the hourly rates from these other meteor streams provide but a fraction of the numbers produced by the Perseids, combined, overall they provide a wide variety of meteors of differing colors, speeds and trajectories.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Eighteen inches of snow was reported to have fallen on Echo Summit.\nSgt. Mike Stewart of the California Highway Patrol said Highway 50 was closed for about two hours, opening at about noon Sunday, shortly after the snow stopped falling.\nStranded holiday travelers trying to return home were backed up as far as Elks Club Drive Sunday morning heading out of Tahoe, Stewart said.\nNo major accidents were reported, mainly because traffic was moving so slowly.

Avalanche danger is high where avalanches are likely on steep snow-covered open slopes and gullies.\nIn these areas, back country travel, such as cross country or downhill skiing is not recommended, according to Robert Moore, avalanche forecaster with the service.\nMoore said another update regarding avalanche danger in these passes will be available today.\n“Observers reported long-running new snow avalanches on existing surfaces,” said Moore, who said the warning applies outside developed ski areas only. “Large destructive avalanches are possible.”\nTom Cylke, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Reno, said the brunt of the storm had passed by Sunday afternoon and, although a warm front is expected in the region Tuesday, after that the area could see a drier pattern developing.\nThe Associated Press contributed to this story.\nSupport Local Journalism\nSupport Local Journalism\nReaders around the Lake Tahoe Basin and beyond make the Tahoe Tribune's work possible.

The catastrophic release of methane from the seafloor is not just something which was long ago. It could -- unless we change our way of dealing with our planet, and change it fast -- happen again tomorrow.\nFor most people, global warming -- the gradual and almost imperceptible increase in the world's average temperature -- is something that is only a dim and distant threat far in the future...if even then. The amount of global warming that most of us are likely to experience in our lifetimes is on the order of a degree or so. Celsius or Fahrenheit (it happens to be Celsius, in which scale each degree is 1.8 times that of a Fahrenheit degree): it hardly matters. Such small temperatures changes make no difference in the lives of most people. After all, the variability of temperature over the course of a day -- which from where I write is about 17°C (30°F) -- usually means nothing to us, and whether this spring happens to be a bit warmer or cooler than last year is typically quite unnoticeable. Moreover, in the affluent parts of the globe, it is easy to compensate for such minor temperature differences: with more or less clothing, with a bit more heat during a cold winter or a bit more air conditioning during a hot summer. Just change the setting on the thermostat.\nThe fact that sea level is rising (though not by much: during the 21st century sea level is expected to rise less than 40 centimeters/16 inches, about 3/4 due to the thermal expansion of water, and the rest due to glacier and icecap melting: Raper and Braithwaite, 2006; though a new report suggests that a rise of between 50 and 140 centimeters -- 20 to 56 inches -- may be more probable: Rahmstorf, 2007), and that some areas of the world will eventually be flooded, is known to the better-read members of the population. But even for them, warming-induced sea level changes seem remote. Yes, parts of New York City will be flooded in a few centuries, along with parts of many other coastal cities, but none living today will be around to witness such flooding. Parts of Bangladesh will go under water, and some island nations may disappear beneath the waves, but, again, these events will occur in a distant future, to other people, in faraway lands.\nIn addition to the indifference caused by our ability to control our immediate environments, many people have been apathetic about global warming because they have been told that there is considerable disagreement among scientists regarding whether there actually is warming, and, if so, exactly how much is caused by -- and therefore can be controlled by -- human activities. Unfortunately, these people have been misled, and, in most cases, deliberately misled. There are always disagreements among scientists, especially those who are conscientious in their endeavors. That is simply the way that science works. Disagreement helps determine truth, because it is disagreement that drives scientists to look for the evidence that will decide the issue. Nature -- the \"real world\" -- is always the decision maker.\nRegarding global warming -- based on\nthe evidence -- the vast majority of climate scientists are in\nagreement about three things:\n(1) global warming is real, and will continue to increase,\n(2) most global warming is due to human activity, specifically the burning of carbon fuels, particularly fossil fuels (carbon fuels include wood, peat, and charcoal in addition to the fossil fuels: oil, natural gas, and coal), and\n(3) as global warming continues, it will have increasingly adverse effects on human beings, our environment, our fellow creatures, and the global economy.\nIt does not seem worthwhile to review all the enormous amount of evidence for global warming here. There are many fine books and a constant stream of scientific papers on the subject. Some of these papers occasionally attract enough attention that their findings make the daily newspapers. A few points, however, should be made.\nFirst, the relation between atmospheric levels of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide and global temperatures is clear. During the Phanerozoic (the last 543 million years), when atmospheric carbon dioxide levels have been high, global temperatures have been high; when low, global temperatures have been low. The only exception to this correlation was in the Late Ordovician (about 440 million years ago), when there was an ice age despite apparently high levels of carbon dioxide. Other suspected exceptions seem to have been based on the erroneous presumption that certain fossils that help provide ancient temperature information were not altered by conditions during and after their burial, when, in fact, they were (Pearson, 2001; Schwarzchild, 2001). The Ordovician exception has attracted further investigation. But in the 440 million years since that time, there are no other exceptions (for a review of their own evidence and that of others, see Royer, 2004). High levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide increase global temperatures (see Berner and Kothavala, 2001, diagram in previous section) because carbon dioxide absorbs reflected infrared radiation, and thus helps the Earth retain heat.\nSecond, the current warming is not, as has been alleged, just part of the natural variation. The current warming, rather, is quite exceptional. And third, it is due to human activity. Scientists, who generally are by training (if not by temperament as well) extremely cautious about reaching conclusions, especially in controversial matters, used to be very careful about attributing global warming to human activities. With mounting evidence, that caution has dissipated. In the past few years, the tone of scientific papers about climate change has shifted. Now scientists refer to anthropogenic (human-caused) global warming as a matter of course, and many seem quite (and properly) concerned that their repeated warnings and calls for remedial action are not being taken seriously enough.\nA single graph provides a compelling answer to those who still disbelieve the connection between human activity atmospheric carbon dioxide and global temperatures. It traces the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere over a period of 350,000 years, based on samples of ancient air bubbles caught in the ice at the Vostok Station in Antarctica, the most physically remote place on the surface of the planet. There, as snow slowly accumulated over the ages (Antarctica is technically a desert, because it receives very little precipitation), the snow also trapped tiny bubbles of air. From ice cores obtained by drilling through the Antarctic ice, scientists carefully extract that air, and measure the percentage of carbon dioxide, and the isotopes of oxygen. The oxygen isotopes can help reveal the temperatures of long ago. Thus, from the same tiny bubble, scientists can know both the amount of carbon dioxide in the air, as well as the temperature.\nAtmospheric carbon dioxide levels and global temperatures over the past 350,000 years. (kyr BP means thousands of years before present.) The scale at the left refers to the green line, and indicates the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Note that it varies from about 200 to 300 parts per million by volume (ppmv).\nTemperatures are indicated by the blue scale at the right, which refers to the blue line. Temperature variation over the past 350,000 years is about 11°C. (Temperature here is measured by the Kelvin scale, in which each degree is exactly the equivalent of a degree Celsius, or C. Each degree Celsius equals 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit.)\nNotice how temperature closely varies with carbon dioxide level -- except at the extreme right. Here, for emphasis, the green line for carbon dioxide has been changed to red, to indicate the dramatic increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide -- in just two centuries. That red line, incidentally, has reached 380 ppmv as of mid-2005. (Rahmstorf, 2004)\nThe graph shows atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO¸2) and global temperature rise and fall in lock-step for these hundreds of thousands of years, right up until the present (the last hundred and fifty years or so). Then, a vertical red line, marked \"anthropogenic CO¸2,\" abruptly -- and to those concerned about global warming, alarmingly -- spikes upward. The blue line designating temperature as yet records no change in response to this surge in atmospheric carbon dioxide (Rahmstorf, 2004, figure 1), but it will.\n(According to newer Antarctic ice core studies, the same pattern holds back as far as 650,000 years. Though the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide reached about 300 ppmv twice at times other than the present during that 650,000 year period, it certainly never exceeded that level until the present, and is now at 380 ppmv: Siegenthaler, 2005; Brook, 2005.)\nThough the red \"anthropogenic CO¸2\" line spikes straight up, this reflects the fact that the graph covers a period of more than a third of a million years; hence, the graph compresses all detail into a vertical direction. This is useful for comparing the rise and fall of carbon dioxide and global temperature over long expanses of time, and in putting the current spike in carbon dioxide in its proper long-term perspective, but it does not provide insight into the annual changes in carbon dioxide. A different graph, showing the increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide over the past several decades, furnishes those details.\nFour things should be noted about this graph. First, it only records the changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide over the past few decades. Anthropogenic global warming has been happening at least since the beginning of the industrial age, about 200 years ago, but scientists only have precise information from about the past 40 years. Thus, while the graph begins at less than 320 ppmv (parts per million by volume), the actual pre-industrial average of atmospheric carbon dioxide is 220 ppmv, as averaged over 420,000 years (Falkowski, 2000). (The immediate pre-industrial level of carbon dioxide, from about 200 years ago, may have been about 280 ppmv. This value is commonly employed in climate assessments. Over the past 1000 years, this value has remained almost constant, with a variation of no more than 10 ppmv.) This means that the graph omits a major part of the anthropogenic carbon dioxide increase over the past 200 years, but simply because we were not engaged in the precision monitoring of carbon dioxide prior to about 40 years ago. As noted previously, atmospheric carbon dioxide has now reached 380 ppmv.\nSometimes scientists employ weight in place of volume. In such cases, the designation ppmw is used, indicating parts per million by weight. Weight and volume measures are not identical (think of a cup of air versus a cup of lead), so scientists need to specify which measuring system they are using.\nAnother system is that employed for carbon isotopes, as mentioned previously. This system uses per mil, meaning parts per thousand. By using per mil rather than percent (%, that is, parts per hundred), a typical negative carbon isotope shift becomes 3 per mil, rather than 0.3%. The per mil value is less likely to cause errors, and is easier to understand and work with.\nSecond, the measurements for the graph were taken at the Mauna Loa Observatory on Hawaii (by the recently deceased Charles Keeling, who figured out how to measure atmospheric carbon dioxide and is one of the discoverers of global warming). The Observatory is at the summit of the volcanic peak, which rises almost 3500 meters (more than two miles) above sea level. Mauna Loa is an excellent place from which to monitor atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, as it is far from the most significant sources of that gas; indeed, it is probably one of the best places in the northern hemisphere from which to conduct such measurements. (In fact, increased atmospheric carbon dioxide and global warming were first detected there.) Third, the sawtooth pattern simply reflects small seasonal variations in the general trend, and so are unimportant. Fourth -- and quite important -- is that the general trend of the line curves slightly upward with time (look at the line from its lower left corner). This means that the problem is getting worse from year to year, not getting better or merely staying the same.\n(The increase in the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide may in part be accelerating due to global warming itself. In the summer of 2003, Europe experienced one of the greatest heat waves ever. Temperatures soared some 6°C [10.8°F] above the average recorded since 1851, and rainfall was down 50% from its long-term average [Baldocchi, 2005]. This caused a drop in primary productivity -- plant growth -- of some 30%, and a major increase in the release of carbon dioxide in the affected region [Ciais, 2005].)\nAn additional graph looks at the relation between atmospheric carbon dioxide and temperature for all ice-core air samples from which we have data on both. (The data used in this graph also comes from the ice cores of the Vostok station.)\n|Relation between carbon dioxide and global warming or cooling over the past 350,000 years. Each data point (from the Vostok, Antarctica, ice cores) shows both a carbon dioxide measurement and one for temperature (using oxygen isotope levels). The data points have been divided into two groups, depending on whether the data was taken from a time when glaciation was increasing (black points) or decreasing (gray points). During cooling periods (glaciations), both temperature and carbon dioxide drop; during warming periods (deglaciations), both temperature and carbon dioxide rise. The arrows indicate the general trends. (Falkowski, 2002)|\nEach point on this graph displays the information provided from one air sample, and each is color-coded according to whether it came from a period of glaciation (black) or deglaciation (gray) during the most recent part of the Ice Age. Unlike the previous graph, which traces carbon dioxide and temperature over time, this graph plots the level of carbon dioxide against temperature, displaying how they have varied in relation to one another. The arrows show what has happened: the Glaciations arrow indicates that the fall of atmospheric carbon dioxide correlates with the fall of global temperature. During Deglaciations, it is the opposite: the rise of carbon dioxide is correlated with the rise of global temperature.\nThere is a curious and particularly disturbing aspect to this graph. That is the direction of the arrow labeled \"Modern.\" Although the arrows labeled Glaciation and Deglaciation point in opposite directions, they still define the same linear orientation, rather as a highway defines a particular route, even though it goes in two different directions. (Like the hands of a clock -- taking the top of the page as the 12 o'clock direction -- they point in about the 2 o'clock and 8 o'clock directions.) But the \"Modern\" arrow veers off on its own (in about the 12:30 direction). It does so because carbon dioxide is rapidly accumulating in the atmosphere.\nGlobal temperatures, however, have not caught up. They will, and the angle at which the \"Modern\" arrow veers off will most likely, but gradually, come to define the same trend as do the Glaciations and Deglaciations arrows. (In other words, the arrow, like the hand of a clock, will slowly rotate clockwise from its current 12:30 position towards 2 o'clock as global temperatures increase.) Unfortunately, unless we severely curb emissions from the burning of fossil fuels, that arrow will reach to over 560 ppmv of carbon dioxide (double the pre-industrial level) in the atmosphere before the end of this century.\nExtended to 560 ppmv in the direction\ncurrently indicated, the arrow projects global temperatures may\nreach about 6.5°C higher than at present. That projection\nis equivalent to some of the higher estimates of the amount the\nplanet will warm by the year 2100, so it does not seem unreasonable,\nthough many climate scientists believe that warming is likely\nto be less. However, if the direction of the \"Modern\"\narrow does with time indeed slowly rotate clockwise, the planet\nwill be warmer, perhaps considerably warmer, than those estimates\nIn addition to warming the planet, increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide will have a further major planetary effect. Much of the fossil fuel carbon dioxide will enter the ocean from the atmosphere. There it will acidify the ocean. Excess carbon dioxide is now entering the ocean, from the atmosphere, at the appalling rate of about a million metric tons per hour, leading to decrease in ocean surface pH, that is, to an increase in acidity, of about 0.1 pH (Cicerone, 2004). A negative 0.1 pH change may not seem like much, but it represents a 30% increase in acidity. By the end of this century, pH will have dropped by another 0.2 to 0.4, possibly increasing acidity by more than 150%. (Negative pH changes represent exponential [geometric] increases in acidity rather than linear increases.) Organisms with calcium carbonate skeletons will be hard pressed to survive.\nA detailed examination (Orr, 2005) of the likely effects of ocean acidification notes that not only will the world ocean become more acidic, but that the level of carbonate ions (CO¸3^2) will also fall. Both of these effects -- the increase in acidity and the decrease in carbonate ions -- will be bad news for marine organisms with calcium carbonate skeletons, many of which provide shelter and/or food for organisms higher on the food chain, including human beings. Corals, for example, offer shelter for numerous invertebrates and fish, and are sometimes consumed by them. Pteropods, which are mollusks, and therefore the distant relatives of oysters, clams, octopi, and squids, are generally small, thin-shelled creatures that furnish food for many fish, such as salmon, mackerel, herring, and cod. They also are food for baleen whales (which strain water for food particles). In polar waters, pteropods may be almost as important as krill (shrimp-like crustaceans) in the diets of higher marine organisms (Orr, 2005).\nBoth corals and pteropods, however, construct their skeletons from aragonite, a less stable crystalline form of calcium carbonate (CaCO¸3). This particular mineral is more vulnerable to dissolution by acid than is calcite, the more stable crystalline form. As the world ocean acidifies, coral and pteropod skeletons will begin to dissolve, and growing corals and pteropods will find it increasingly difficult to construct their skeletons. This ecological threat will first appear in the world's coldest waters, because cold water can hold more dissolved carbon dioxide (just like cold soda, remember?)(Orr, 2005).\nTwo different scenarios for the coming increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide suggest that the survival prospects for cold water corals and pteropods in the 21st century is not good. According to one \"business-as-usual\" scenario (the IPCC's IS92a scenario) which postulates that human dumping of carbon dioxide will continuously increase, atmospheric carbon dioxide will rise to about 788 ppmv by the year 2100. The point of doubling beyond pre-industrial carbon dioxide levels (560 ppmv), therefore, will be reached around 2050. At this level of atmospheric carbon dioxide, the Southern Ocean's surface waters will be \"undersaturated\" with regard to dissolved aragonite. That means there will not be enough aragonite available in surface waters for those organisms which depend on it (Orr, 2005).\nOrganisms which construct their skeletons from carbonate minerals other than aragonite will also suffer. Coralline red algae and echinoderms (sea urchins, starfish), which make their skeletons from calcite that contains magnesium, will be affected even before corals and pteropods, because this form of calcite is even more vulnerable to dissolution than aragonite. Organisms which use relatively pure calcite, such as foraminifera and coccolithophores, will fare better, but not for long: calcite undersaturation will follow that of aragonite undersaturation by 50 to 100 years (Orr, 2005). The dissolution of coccolithophore skeletons (which do contain some magnesium) will cause not only the demise of the coccolithophores, but what could be the beginning of a significant drop in the level of atmospheric oxygen. Coccoliths (the shorter version of the name) are photosynthetic organisms which contribute a substantial amount of oxygen to the air.\nThus, by 2100, the situation will be far worse: pH will have dropped by another 0.3 to 0.4 units (relative to today's oceanic pH), representing a 100 to 150% increase in ocean acidity. At that point, the entire Southern Ocean (not just the surface waters), will be undersaturated with regard to aragonite. The sub-polar Pacific Ocean will be similarly affected (Orr, 2005).\nA second scenario (the IPCC's \"stabilization\" scenario, S650) projects that acidification will take place more slowly. It assumes that atmospheric carbon dioxide will rise less rapidly, and level off at about 560 ppmv (twice pre-industrial) at about 2100. Under this scenario, the same conditions will be reached about 50 years later than with the \"business-as-usual\" scenario (Orr, 2005).\nPrevious studies had indicated that the\nprocess of increasing oceanic acidification would take centuries,\nbut these researchers find serious acidification will take only\ndecades (Orr, 2005). Disastrous as this probability is, however,\nit just glimpses our near-future prospects, to about the end of\nthe twenty-first century. As the Caldeira and Wickett diagram\n(above) indicates, acidification of the ocean will not arbitrarily\nstop at the end of the present century, but will continue for\nmany centuries more. And all of these scenarios focus on carbon\ndioxide, without attempting to include the possibly greater threat:\nMETHANE RELEASE; METHANE CATASTROPHE\nWith the warming of the planet will come the release of hydrate methane. Already, the West Siberian Peat Bog, containing perhaps a quarter of the world's inventory of methane hydrate that is locked into continental permafrost, has begun to melt and is releasing some of that store of methane. The slight warming the Bering Sea and the northern coastal region of Alaska has undergone presumably has started to free some of its own hydrate methane. The current slow release, however, will certainly accelerate as increased temperatures heat high latitude continental regions, and warm ocean currents, disturbing marine circulation patterns.\nEven if hydrate methane release never reaches a stage that can fully be described as catastrophic, it could make the difference between quite serious and quite deadly global warming. As time goes by, we can expect that methane will make more and more of a contribution to what may become not mere global warming but global scorching. But at some unpredictable \"tipping point,\" the accelerating release may become overwhelming.\nOne way that such an accelerated release could occur is via a major submarine landslide, which can happen in a matter of hours, and which could trigger additional slumping and further sudden methane release. The stability of the continental margins in which methane hydrates reside is unclear: \"It is not known if future warming is sufficient to cause failure of continental slopes on a global scale, but isotopic evidence of rapid carbon release in the past is suggestive\" (Buffett and Archer, 2004).\nAnother release mechanism is by the venting of vast quantities of free methane and dissociated hydrate methane over a period of decades, perhaps triggered by marine warming sufficient to allow the fracturing of seafloor sediments by the free methane gas that underlies the hydrate. Either mechanism has the potential to abruptly and massively release continental margin methane within a short period of time, say, within a hundred years, or a few centuries at most. These are events that can take place in what is essentially a geological eyeblink, and will be beyond our ability to prevent (except by ceasing to dump carbon dioxide into the atmosphere), remedy, or mitigate.\nAt some point, that is, the release of\nmethane may indeed become catastrophic, with a surge of this powerful\ngreenhouse gas that could make the mere carbon dioxide warming\nof the planet pale to insignificance. Although some scientists\n(Harvey and Huang, 1995, for instance) believe that a powerful\nrelease of methane may await us, but probably no sooner than thousands\nof years in the future (if then), when ocean warming finally penetrates\nto what was at the time (1995) thought to be standard hydrate\ndepth. Nonetheless, they recognized that such projections could\nbe in error if more rapid release mechanisms prevailed.\nUniversity of Chicago geophysicists David Archer and Bruce Buffett, who also study what will happen with the immense store of hydrate methane in the seafloor, have estimated that some 85% of that inventory will be released with a 3°C (5.4°F) warming. Their calculations indicate that there are about 3000 billion metric tons (Gt) of hydrate and some 2000 billion metric tons (Gt) of \"bubbles\" -- the free gas that underlies the hydrate -- in the seafloor worldwide (Buffett and Archer, 2004).\nThough this about half of the usual estimate of 10,000 billion metric tons (Gt) for seafloor methane, Archer notes that the oxygenation level of the ocean bottom is a significant factor in determining how much methane may be contained within the seafloor. If the deepest water of the Arctic Ocean is anoxic --as it could be, because of its restricted circulation -- the methane hydrate inventory would be greater (Archer, 2006). In addition, the Buffett and Archer calculations of the quantity of seafloor methane rely on measurements of carbon rain, the organic matter dropping through the water column to the ocean floor. The discovery of giant larvaceans, with their ability to send packages of organic matter rapidly to the ocean floor, has, according to the discoverers, been overlooked in previous estimates of carbon rain, and led to underestimates of 50 to 100% (Robison, 2005).\nWhile Buffett and Archer project a loss\nof 85% of seafloor methane with a warming of 3°C, a more conservative\nestimate finds that about 2000 billion metric tons (Gt) of methane\ncould be released with a seafloor temperature increase of 5°C\n(9°F) (Hornbach, 2004). (That is one-fifth of the usual estimate\nof 10,000 Gt of methane hydrate in the world's continental margins.)\nThat's more than 2 1/2 times the amount of carbon as in the atmosphere.\n(Buffett and Archer's estimated release of 85% of their calculated\nquantity of seafloor methane amounts to 4 1/4 the amount of carbon\nin the atmosphere, or 8 1/2 times that carbon if seafloor methane\nis 10,000 Gt.) The carbon in the atmosphere, moreover, is largely\nin the form of carbon dioxide, which is a far less powerful greenhouse\ngas than methane. Though this methane would quickly be oxidized\n-- to carbon dioxide -- once it reached the atmosphere, even its\nshort-term presence would deliver a stunning jolt of heat to the\nplanet. The derivative carbon dioxide will maintain that heat\nover a much longer term.\nAt the end of the Permian, carbon dioxide\nwas initially injected into the atmosphere by the Traps eruptions.\nThese eruptions were presumably episodic, spread out over hundreds\nof thousands of years, interspersed with long periods of dormancy.\nNonetheless, at least one or more of these episodes was sufficient\nto release vast quantities of seafloor methane. As noted previously,\nthe primary trigger for seafloor methane release was presumably\nthe direct heating of the PaleoArctic continental margin by Siberian\nTraps volcanism, particularly by the emplacement of magmatic sills\nwithin the seafloor sediments. No doubt, however, volcanic carbon\ndioxide also played a role in warming the planet and releasing\nBut while not as dramatic, our own releases of carbon dioxide from the burning of fossil fuels well exceed, on average, those of the Siberian Traps. While not episodic, nor as sudden, our releases are considerable, continuous, and increasing. In no more than 300 years, virtually all of the accessible fossil fuel carbon reservoir -- some 5000 billion metric tons (Gt) -- will have been transferred to the atmosphere, in the form of carbon dioxide, if we continue to burn up our fossil fuels.\nTo put this carbon dioxide release into perspective, it is roughly equivalent to the total amount of carbon dioxide injected into the atmosphere by the Siberian Traps volcanism. Estimating from several sources, total Siberian Traps CO¸2 may have been about 1/2 to 2 1/2 to 4 times the amount of CO¸2 that will be released from the burning of fossil fuels (estimates based on Leavitt, 1982 and Gerlach and Graeber, 1985, as cited by Beerling and Berner, 2002, and Javoy and Michaud, 1989, as cited by Grard, 2005). Moreover, this colossal quantity of carbon dioxide will not be released over some 900,000 ± 800,000 years, as it was at the end of the Permian (Renne and Basu, 1991), but in the course of just three centuries. That amounts to an anthropogenic rate of carbon dioxide release that is roughly tens to perhaps thousands of times faster than the average rate of the end-Permian.\nStating that the \"anthropogenic rate of carbon dioxide release , , , is roughly tens to perhaps thousands of times faster than the average rate at the end of the Permian\" may seem to be an extraordinary claim, so here are the numbers. The amount of fossil fuel carbon is about 5000 billion metric tons (Gt), equivalent to some 18.3 trillion metric tons (Tt) of carbon dioxide. Released into the atmosphere over the next 300 years, that is an average of about 61 billion metric tons (Gt) of anthropogenic carbon dioxide per year.\nThe maximum estimated volume of Siberian Traps extrusives is about 3 million cubic kilometers (about 720,000 cubic miles). Divided by an estimated length of Siberian Traps volcanism of some one million years, the average volcanic extrusion rate is 3 cubic kilometers (about 0.72 cubic miles) per year. Leavitt, 1982, estimates that each cubic kilometer of extruded basalt releases 3.5 million metric tons (Mt) of carbon dioxide, for a total of 10.5 million metric tons (Mt) of carbon dioxide as the average annual release rate for Siberian Traps volcanism. Comparable total figures from Gerlach and Graeber, 1985, and Javoy and Michaud, 1989, are 48 million metric tons (Mt) per year, and 70.4 million metric tons (Mt) per year, respectively.\nThe anthropogenic carbon dioxide release rate is therefore about 6000 times faster than the average Siberian Traps release rate indicated by Leavitt, 1250 times faster than that of Gerlach and Graeber, and 850 times faster than that of Javoy and Michaud. If the duration of Siberian Traps volcanism much shorter than a million years, as say on the order of 100,000 years (the shortest duration estimated by Renne and Basu, 1991), relative rates would be reduced by an order of magnitude, to 600 times faster than the Leavitt estimate, 125 times faster than the Gerlach and Graeber estimate, and 85 times faster than the Javoy and Michaud estimate.\nIn examining these figures, however, it is important to note that the Siberian Traps carbon dioxide release rates are averages, and that large igneous province volcanic eruptions are presumably highly episodic. Consequently, actual carbon dioxide release rates are probably quite variable over the course of the eruption's duration.\nThis enormous release of carbon dioxide ought to be quite sufficient to warm air and ocean enough to liberate a vast quantity of methane from its icy seafloor muds.\nA massive methane release, and perhaps\na true methane catastrophe, is just around the corner, geologically\nspeaking -- as well as in human terms. Assuming we continue to\nconduct business as usual, it is inevitable. When it will happen\ncannot be predicted, but it will likely begin between about a\nhundred and, at most, a thousand years from now. Once it starts\n-- or even well before it starts -- it will be irreversible. Each\nof these characteristics -- inevitability, magnitude, unpredictability,\nand irreversibility -- requires further elaboration.\nThe release of seafloor methane is inevitable because we are pumping unprecedented quantities of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This carbon dioxide will warm the planet, and, in fact, is already doing so. Though the amount of global warming thus far (that is, in the twentieth century) is minimal -- only about 0.6°C (about 1°F), plus or minus 0.2°C -- the warming will significantly increase during this, the twenty-first century. The most generally accepted projections for global warming, those from the Third Assessment Report of the UN-sponsored Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), indicates that the world's surface will warm by about between 1.4°C and 5.8°C (2.5°F to 10.4°F) by the end of this century (Kerr, 2001). As of the IPCC's 2007 Fourth Assessment Report, likely warming is projected at 1.1°C and 6.4°C (2.0°F to 11.5°F), with warming very likely between 1.8°C and 4.0°C (3.2°F to 7.2°F: IPCC 2007). Though this warming estimate represents the consensus thinking of the approximately 2500 climate scientists worldwide, recent warming estimates indicate that it may be too conservative.\nTypically, climate scientists make their projections of global warming by estimating the heating effect of a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide, which has been expected to occur by the end of the twenty-first century. (The amount of warming that will take place as a result of a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide is often referred to as \"climate sensitivity,\" though this is not the precise meaning of the term: see Schlesinger and Andronova, 2002.) Using a different and complex approach, some scientists now believe that there could actually be somewhat less warming than projected by the IPCC.\nBut these same scientists believe that there is an even greater likelihood -- in fact, a much greater likelihood -- that warming could considerably exceed the IPCC's projection. According to their projections, warming by the end of the century will likely range between 1.0°C and 9.3°C (1.8°F to 16.7°F), with the upper estimate significantly higher than that of the IPCC. The scientists who reached these conclusions find them -- in a modest departure from the ordinarily unemotional language of science -- \"a disquieting result\" (Andronova and Schlesinger, 2001).\nIn January 2005, this disquieting result was confirmed as a real possibility by the largest computer climate simulation ever done. Employing computer time from almost 100,000 home computers, the study compiled the results from the climateprediction.net experiment. (The harnessing of huge amounts of home computer time has become a standard activity in certain branches of science which require such time for extremely complex calculations. Ordinary citizens can make important contributions to science by the donation of such unused home computer time. This endeavor is immensely valuable for climate scientists, and readers are strongly encouraged to assist. This project does not interfere with the ordinary use of home computers. Details are furnished at the website, www.climateprediction.net)\nWith a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide, the study found, the possible global warming (that is, the \"climate sensitivity\") could range from 1.9°C (3.4°F) to as much as 11.5°C (20.7°F). Nonetheless, the study also found that the most likely temperature increase would be about 3.4°C (6.1°F), just as the IPCC had (Stainforth, 2005). One of the study's co-authors, Robert Spicer, pointed out that the highest temperatures in \"recent\" earth history occurred some 100 million years ago (during the Cretaceous Period), but that global temperatures at that time were probably only about 6°C (10.8°F) higher than today's (Connor, 2005). If the highest likely temperatures projected by the climateprediction.net study were to come to pass, they would be without precedent in hundreds of millions of years, perhaps for the entire Phanerozoic (Royer, 2004).\nThe disquieting findings of Andronova\nand Schlesinger were echoed by Richard Alley of Pennsylvania State\nUniversity, Chair of the National Research Council's Committee\non Abrupt Climate Change, at the December 2001 meeting of the\nAmerican Geophysical Union. Alley, who was discussing his committee's\nnewly released report \"Abrupt Climate Changes: Inevitable\nSurprises,\" stated that significant global warming could\ncome much more rapidly than the IPCC projects. He warned that\nglobal temperatures could rise 10°C (18°F) in just a short\ntime, \"tripping the switch\" towards abrupt climate change\nin only a few decades (Showstack, 2001).\nNonetheless, the IPCC's 2007 Fourth Assessment Report pegs climate sensitivity (here, the doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide) at between 2.0°C and 4.5°C (3.6°F to 8.1°F), with its best estimate being 3.0°C (5.4°F). This is not very different from another new estimate that puts climate sensitivity at between 1.5°C and 6.2°C (2.7°F to 11.2°F), with the most likely figure being 2.8°C (5.0°F). This estimate is based on a comprehensive study of carbon dioxide levels and presumed temperatures over the past 420 million years (Royer, 2007). However, because the weathering of silicate rocks draws down atmospheric carbon dioxide and restores temperatures some 100,000 to 150,000 years after a carbon dioxide outburst, this study may well overlook short, extreme spikes of temperature.\nThe warming that the planet has already experienced is not restricted to the lower atmosphere, or to the sea surface. Scientists used to be puzzled as to where the heat was going, because there seemed to be more heat being produced by global warming than could be accounted for, based on atmospheric and sea surface measurements. This is a conundrum no longer. As many scientists had previously suspected, the heat is going into the oceans. But they were only able to suspect that the oceans were taking up the heat because they lacked the ability to measure it. That has changed.\nBased on the systematic investigation of millions of temperature records from various ocean depths worldwide, it is now clear that the \"excess heat\" is indeed going into the oceans. In fact, more than 90% of the heat from global warming has gone into the ocean, with the remaining heat having gone into the melting of polar region ice and mountain glaciers, and the atmosphere (Levitus, 2000). The oceanic temperature increase (0.06°C, or about 0.1°F) is minute -- only about a tenth of the temperature rise in the atmosphere -- but it represents an enormous amount of heat, because of the vast ability of the ocean to hold heat. The Atlantic, Indian, and Pacific Oceans all record the increase, and all indicate similar heat variations with time, over a forty year period from 1955 to 1995. All oceans show a similar increase trend (Levitus, 2000):\n|Ocean warming, 1955-1995. The heat is measured in joules (J), but the specific units are far less important than the general trends, obvious in all oceans. The red lines and the red figures indicate the approximate warming that has taken place, based on millions of measurements. (Levitus, 2000)|\nPerhaps most importantly, the warming\nhas penetrated to deeper parts of all oceans, at depths from 300\nto 1000 meters (about 900 feet to 6/10ths of a mile), and in the\nNorth Atlantic, even below the 1000 meter level. The total temperature\nincrease of 0.06°C is the average of temperature readings\ndown to 3000 meters (Levitus, 2000), emphasizing just how deeply\nthe warming has penetrated. Such a warming of the deep ocean in\nsuch a short time was previously not thought possible. The North\nAtlantic data are possibly the most startling, because that ocean\nseems to be highly vulnerable to global warming, and most able\nto impact climatic conditions on its periphery and worldwide,\nbecause of its major role in driving global thermohaline circulation.\nAs a result of the warming, the ecology of the North Atlantic seafloor may be changing. The population of small (5 centimeters/2 inches long) marine creatures, the sea cucumbers (holothurians, a large group of echinoderms and thus the cousins of starfish, sand dollars, and sea urchins) has increased dramatically. Their numbers have jumped more than a thousand-fold since just 1996, an increase attributed to an influx of dead algae. Though the cause of the population surge has yet to be determined, climate change is a likely suspect (Krieger, 2004). Most likely, warming sea surface temperatures in the North Atlantic have resulted in a major die-off of plankton, furnishing the ocean-bottom-dwelling sea cucumbers with an unexpected -- and unsustainable -- bounty of food.\nThe meaning of catastrophe\nCatastrophe is so frequently used in ordinary discourse that it has lost most of its meaning. Though people in the world's poorer countries often have experience with catastrophic war, famine, infectious disease and floods (as this is written, half of Dacca, Bangladesh, a city of 10 million, is currently under water from monsoon-related flooding, as is 60% of this 140 million population country), most of the populations of affluent countries have no experience with catastrophe. What passes for catastrophe are often family tragedies, which loom large for the affected individuals, but generally assume no wider significance.\nBut there are real catastrophes\n-- sometimes local, sometimes regional, sometimes global -- both\nfor human beings and the other inhabitants of the planet.\nHere is one:\nNorth of Scotland, washed by the North Sea to the east and the North Atlantic to the west, lie small archipelagos called the Orkney (about 70 islands) and the Shetland Islands (about 100 islands). Only a few islands of these, the Northern Isles, are inhabited, though during the breeding season the islands' rocky cliffs host huge numbers of seabirds -- guillemots (members of the auk family), Arctic terns and Shetland kittiwakes (gull family), great skuas and Arctic skuas, (skua family) -- birds not familiar to most Americans, Europeans, Asians. These are subarctic birds, which generally live far to the north of the most populated areas of the Northern Hemisphere (though some of their relatives do live in more temperate regions).\nIn recent years, according to Seabird 2000, the bird count released a few months ago, more than 220,000 pairs of these birds have been breeding in these Scottish islands. But not this year. In 2004, this huge number of birds produced virtually no young: at most, a few dozen chicks in all. The breeding season has been a total, unprecedented failure (McCarthy, 2004). As Subarctic and Arctic regions warm, the ultimate survival of these birds may be at risk.\nThis disaster may be the first ripple of the wave of climate change-induced extinction that will engulf the planet. The ultimate cause of the breeding failure most probably is the warming of the eastern North Atlantic, which has pushed warm-water phytoplankton some 1000 kilometers (600 miles) north -- about a 10° latitude shift -- in just 40 years (Beaugrand, 2002), and a temperature increase of about 2°C (3.6°F) in the North Sea over the past 20 (McCarthy, 2004). (Another source indicates the temperature rise was only 1°C over the past 40 years: Martin Edwards, cited by Proffitt, 2004b.) This warming has resulted in the northern movement of the plankton that used to live in the Shetland/Orkney area, as cold-water phytoplankton followed the retreating, cooler waters. This movement deprived copepods, minute crustaceans which live off the phytoplankton, of their primary food (Beaugrand, 2002).\nThe high mortality of the local phytoplankton and copepods has resulted in a massive die-off of sandeels, and young sandeels in particular. Sandeels (often written as \"sand eels\"), as their name implies, are small (adults from the various species range from about 20 to 35 centimeter/8 to 14 inch in length), elongated, eel-like fish that prefer sandy seafloor environments, and burrow into them when threatened. The sandeels are a major food source for numerous other organisms.\nAlthough at least one scientist has proposed that the cause of the plummeting number of sandeels may be an increase in the local population of herrings, together with the fact that the North Sea is one of the most overfished ocean areas of the world (Proffitt, 2004a), this seems rather unlikely. The overfishing has been a persistent though growing problem; the seabird reproduction failure is abruptly new. In addition, the population explosion of sea cucumbers, mentioned previously, confirms that the quantity of organic debris reaching the seafloor has enormously increased. This debris presumably consists of the remains of phytoplankton and copepods, whose skyrocketing mortality is due to oceanic temperature change. Dead phytoplankton and copepods may serve the dietary needs of sea cucumbers, but the precipitous population decline of these minute organisms has left the sandeels without sustinance.\nAbove the sandeels on the food chain are larger fish, such as cod, whose numbers are falling, marine mammals, and the birds, now too malnourished to reproduce (McCarthy, 2004). The former food chain has been replaced by a chain of starvation.\nIn the far north of Britain, the great chain of being has been sundered.\n[Postscript, 7/12/05, updated 10/31/06: On the Northwest Coast of the United States (northern California, Oregon, Washington), there has been a severe decline in the amount of plankton, including copepods and krill, in the spring and early summer of 2005 (Martin, 2005). Copepods and krill are crustaceans, and (at up to 2.5 cm -- an inch -- in length) are among the largest of the zooplankton, which consume the vegetative plankton (phytoplankton). Most fish depend on the copepods and krill for their food supply, directly or indirectly. Local and migratory seabirds depend on the fish, just as they do in the north of Scotland. It is not surprising, therefore, that seabirds have borne the brunt of this new food chain collapse, as they did in the northeast Atlantic.\nIn the Farallon Islands, about 40 km (25 miles) off San Francisco, seabird nesting has plummeted. According to the Point Reyes Bird Observatory Director of Marine Ecology Bill Sydeman, \"We expect zero nesting success\" for the Cassin's auklets, a seabird which breeds on the islands. \"We've never seen anything like it\" (quoted in Martin, 2005). The 2005 Farallon Islands auklet breeding failure was repeated in 2006. Despite thousands of nesting birds, not a single auklet chick was hatched (Schwing, 2006). Biologists believe this breeding failure is directly attributable to the birds' poor nutrition. Other seabird groups have also been significantly affected, a situation unprecedented in the thirty years of monitoring. Further to the north, along the coast of British Columbia and off Alaska, sea surface temperatures are the highest in fifty years. Along the Oregon coast, these temperatures are 6°C (11°F) higher than normal (Martin, 2005).\nThe plankton collapse is attributed to a major slowdown of upwelling, in which cold water carries nutrients up from the ocean bottom. Without the influx of nutrients, phytoplankton fail to thrive and their numbers are greatly reduced. This affects all organisms above them on the food chain, including fish, seabirds, marine mammals, and even Humpback and Blue whales (Martin, 2005). Because seabird nesting is easily observed, its decline is an obvious sign of serious trouble in the coastal environment. But the count of certain salmon stocks are down as well -- by as much as a hundredfold (Martin, 2005).]\nThe salinity of the Atlantic Ocean is also changing (Curry, 2003). Over the four decades between the 1950s and the 1990s, water closer to the poles has become fresher, and that of the tropics has become saltier. The more poleward water has freshened because of increasing melting of the Greenland and Antarctic ice caps and Arctic and Southern Ocean sea ice. The increase in tropical water salinity is due to increased evaporation: an additional two meters (yards) of water evaporated over the four decades. This represents a five to ten percent rise in the evaporation rate in just 40 years (Curry, 2003).\nBoth the poleward and tropical changes are presumptively due to global warming. Indeed, between 50°S (about the latitude of southern Argentina) and 60°N (the latitude of the southern tip of Greenland), upper ocean temperatures in the western Atlantic (near the Americas) have risen about 1.0°C (1.8°F). An increase in equatorial precipitation near the African coast, possibly also due to global warming, has also been noted (Curry, 2003).\nHurricane Katrina and Global Warming\n(The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale divides hurricanes into five categories, according to wind strength. A tropical storm becomes a hurricane when its winds exceed 119 kilometers/74 miles per hour. Category 1 hurricanes have winds from 119 to 153 kilometers/74-95 miles per hour; Category 2, 154-177 km/96-110 mph; Category 3, 178-209 km/111-130 mph; Category 4, 210-249 km/131-155 mph; Category 5, over 249 km/155 mph.)\nHurricane Katrina crossed the southern tip of the Florida peninsula on August 25, as a Category 1 hurricane, and gathered strength to Category 5 during the next three days in the Gulf of Mexico. It then lost some of that strength, to Category 4, as it made landfall in Louisiana on August 29. Passage to the north over land quickly dissipated its strength, so that by August 30, it had become, once again, a tropical storm, just as it had been on August 24 before hitting Florida.\nHurricane Katrina was a particularly nasty hurricane, which dropped enough water into Louisiana's Lake Pontchartrain to breach the levees surrounding the City of New Orleans. Inadequate maintenance of these levees, together with shoddy emergency preparations resulted in the flooding of about 80% of the city, and major destruction along the nearby Gulf Coast. The total cost of the hurricane is esttimated to be between $125 and $150 billion dollars, making it the costliest natural disaster in American history.\nShortly after this colossal natural disaster, the Wall Street Journal ridiculed the idea that there was any connection between Hurricane Katrina and global warming. Let's examine the facts.\nFirst, there is no way to attribute any particular unusual weather event to a specific or single source. One need only to consider the accuracy of television and newspaper forecasts to recognize that if the causes and effects of particular weather events were well understood, we would never be caught without our umbrellas when it rains. The significant inaccuracy of such forecasts, as well as their inability to project more than a few days into the future, ought to convince us that scientific weather prediction accuracy is still an elusive goal (whatever the folks at the Old Farmers Almanac may think).\nGeneral patterns, however, are often known to a fair degree of accuracy. A given area may typically have about two dozen days each year when temperatures exceed 38°C (about 100°F). Over many years, this pattern may hold. Nonetheless, there may be exceptional years when the number of hot days is considerably greater than two dozen, or, indeed, when there are no hot days at all. Careful study of weather patterns, together with mathematical modeling, can even give us some sense of how likely it may be for a given year to depart from the general pattern. Both trends and cycles may also alter an established pattern, and again, these departures from the initial pattern may suspected or predicted.\nOne hurricane cycle has recently been identified. According to the US National Atmospheric and Oceanic Administration (NOAA), the number of hurricanes has been increasing as part of a natural cycle. The cycle seems to run for forty to sixty years; the number of hurricanes has been above average since about 1995. Indeed, as part of that cycle, the number of hurricanes forecast for 2005 is twice that of normal. So as many hurricanes may follow Katrina as preceded it, before the hurricane season ends on November 30.\nBut even if the 2005 hurricane season is part of a natural cycle, it is characterized by a number of exceptional events. The year 2005 marks the first time there have been four named storms as early as July 9th since record keeping began in 1851. (Tropical storms get names when their wind speeds exceed 62 kilometers (39 miles) per hour.) The 26 named storms as of the end of the 2005 hurricane season exceed the previous record number of 22, and the naming system, for the first time, has had to extend into the use of Greek letters as hurricane designates. In addition, the year 2005 also marked the earliest Category 4 hurricane (Hurricane Dennis) on record. The 14 tropical storms whose wind speeds achieved hurricane status are also an annual record (the previous record was 12). Finally, Hurricane Wilma brought more than 162 centimeters (64 inches) of rain to Isla Mujeres, an all-time 24-hour rain record for the country of Mexico. (Though 2005 is likely to prove to be an exceptional year for hurricanes, it may nonetheless be part of a general trend to more numerous and ferocious hurricanes. The real significance of the 2005 hurricane season will only be clear from the perspective of a decade or more hence.)\nIs any of this unusual activity attributable to global warming?\nOne of the predictions by those who study global warming is that the number and severity of unusual precipitation events will increase as the planet warms. Hurricanes are unusual precipitation events. Although it is too soon to assess whether the exceptional number of hurricanes predicted for 2005 and thereafter are truly part of a natural cycle, or whether they are some of the early effects of global warming, it may not be premature to suggest that the general severity of hurricanes is indeed increasing due to that warming. Hurricanes, after all, are colossal heat pumps, transporting vast quantities of tropical heat to more temperate regions.\nIntensity of precipitation\nevents and temperature\nThat the general severity of hurricanes may be increasing is the conclusion of a study published early the same month as Hurricane Katrina ravaged New Orleans. (Hurricane Katrina was not an exceptionally severe hurricane, though it was exceptionally large and struck in a particularly vulnerable and inadequately prepared area. However, a later hurricane of the 2005 season, Wilma, briefly became the most intense Atlantic hurricane ever recorded. It went from a tropical storm, with maximum winds of 119 kilometers/74 miles per hour to a category 5 hurricane, with winds over 249 km/155 mph, in a single day.) According to the study (Emanuel, 2005a), the severity of hurricanes, as measured by wind speeds and duration, has increased by some 50% over the course of the last 30 years. (This study found no evidence for an increase in the number of hurricanes.) Things could be worse: the same study indicates that storms in the northern Pacific have increased in strength by 75% during the same period of time. Though this study has its critics (see Landsea, 2005, and Pielke, 2005), its author stands by his conclusions, noting that they are based on about 100 times more data than those of his critics, rather than just hurricane wind speeds at landfall (Emanuel, 2005b).\nA second study confirms that the percentage of intense hurricanes has increased over the past 35 years, even while the total number of hurricanes, and their maximum wind speeds (at about 290 kilometers per hour/180 mph), has remained roughly the same. In those 35 years, the number of the most intense hurricanes (categories 4 and 5), has almost doubled, and that number, as a percentage of all hurricanes, has risen from about 20% to about 35%. The same period has seen a decline in the number and percentage of weaker (categories 1, 2, and 3) hurricanes (Webster, 2005).\nSome scientists challenge these conclusions. But as scientists, it is their duty to demonstrate that the conclusions do not follow from the evidence, or that there is contravening evidence. At this point, the conclusions stand.\nAnd there may be good reason that they should. The increase in intensity of major storms over recent decades seems closely tied to the increase of ocean surface temperature during the same time. According to Kerry Emanuel, the lead author of the study, \"'The total energy dissipated by hurricanes turns out to be well correlated with tropical sea surface temperatures. The large upswing in the past decade is unprecedented and probably reflects the effects of global warming'\" (quoted in Verrengia, 2005). Storm intensity is measured by wind speeds and storm duration. [It should be noted that both the hurricane intensity study and Emanuel's comments date from several weeks before Hurricane Katrina struck.] The strong link between hurricane intensities and sea surface temperatures (as opposed to other possible influential factors) received additional confirmation in a study published in March of 2006. The link was found in all oceans that have such storms (Hoyos, 2006).\nOver the past 40 years, the upper ocean (down to about 300 meters/yards) has warmed -- as a result of the heating of the atmosphere by greenhouse gases -- by an average of 0.5°C (0.9°F: Barnett, 2005). This warming is present in all oceans to a greater or lesser degree, according to independent studies with millions of data points (Levitus, 2000; Levitus, 2001; Levitus, 2005).\nWarmer oceans contain more heat, which drives hurricanes; they also evaporate more water, adding to the severity of precipitation events. So there is a specific cause and effect relationship between oceanic warming and hurricane intensity. Consequently, it would be surprising if hurricane intensity had not increased as a result of oceanic warming. One would have to wonder why the predicted effect had not occurred when the causative agent was present. It would be rather like dropping a stone, only to have it float in the air.\nSo, did global warming specifically contribute to the size and ferocity of Hurricane Katrina?\nMost likely, yes. Both the North Atlantic, in which Katrina formed, and the Gulf of Mexico, where it grew to a major hurricane, have been warmed by the action of anthropogenic greenhouse gases. The Gulf of Mexico, for example, was 2°C to 3°C (3.6°F to 5.4°F) warmer in early August than is usual for that time of year (Schiermeier, 2005c); seawater temperatures there were unprecedented. This allowed Katrina to suck \"so much heat from the gulf that water temperatures dropped dramatically after it had passed, in some regions from 30°C to 26°C\" [86°F to 78.8°F] (Schiermeier, 2005c).\nBoth Katrina and the next major hurricane to hit the US mainland in the 2005 hurricane season, Rita, seem to have drawn their increased strength while passing over a \"loop current\" or its giant eddies in the Gulf of Mexico. This current carries warm water from the Caribbean through the Yucatan Channel (the passage between the Yucatan Peninsula and western Cuba), into the Gulf, and then out into the Atlantic via the Straits of Florida (between Florida and northern Cuba). The loop current and its eddies provide a deep (to water depths of 100 meters/yards or so) source of heat upon which passing tropical storms or weaker hurricanes can build into major hurricanes (Revkin, 2005).\nWithout global warming, Katrina may still have formed and devastated the Gulf Coast, but its size and the force of its winds would likely have been reduced. The massive storm surge which swept over and obliterated several towns along the Mississippi coast would not have been as high as it was (about 10 meters/31 feet in places), and would have swept less far inland.\nThe general evidence suggests that if\nHurricane Katrina was typical of more recent hurricanes, its\ndevastating force was some 50% greater as a consequence of global\nwarming than it would have been otherwise. That's no small difference.\nThe 2006 Hurricane Season:\nDespite the horrific hurricane seasons of 2004, when three major hurricanes hit the United States mainland, and that of 2005, when another three -- in addition to Katrina -- hit the mainland, the 2006 season was unexpectedly quiet. Not a single hurricane came ashore, and storm activity extended only as far westward as the central North Atlantic. What happened?\nOne or both of two factors may have been involved. The first is called wind shear, and refers to the shearing force that is exerted when winds move at greatly varying speeds or directions at different altitudes. Because hurricanes are weather structures which extend from the ocean surface to at least sixteen kilometers (ten miles) high, wind shear has the ability to tear them apart. And, just as hurricane intensity is predicted to increase in a warming world, so also is wind shear. The same cause, therefore, can result in conflicting atmospheric phenomena. Nonetheless, according to predictive models, wind shear seems likely to increase at a slower rate with global warming than will hurricane intensity. Whether the predicted increase in wind shear will be sufficient to rip apart many future hurricanes, or reduce their intensity, remains to be seen.\nA second factor possibly impacting hurricane number and intensity may be dust from the Sahara Desert. Most North Atlantic hurricanes do begin their existences off the coast of northwestern Africa, as tropical low-pressure centers (\"tropical depressions\"). As they move westward across the North Atlantic, they can gain intensity from the warm water of the ocean. If the ocean water is cool, however, the conditions for increasing storm intensity are not met (Lau and Kim, 2007; Kerr, 2007).\nIn 2006, unusually large quantities of dust from the Sahara were carried over the North Atlantic. This dust had the effect of blocking sunlight and reducing the solar heating of the ocean, dropping its temperature. In addition, the arid winds carrying the dust may have helped dry the marine air and increase wind shear. The 2006 season of low storm intensity may have been the consequence (Lau and Kim, 2007; Kerr, 2007).\nWhat will the future bring, as the competing influences of globally warming sea surface temperatures, wind shear, and dry, dusty winds vie for supremacy over the southeastern North Atlantic? Stay tuned.\nAs we have been repeatedly warned by geochemist and climatologist Wally Broecker (for example, Broecker, 2001), the increasing freshening of poleward waters, and the increasing salinity of tropical waters, can slow or shut down the Great Oceanic Conveyor (for a discussion of thermohaline circulation, see APPENDIX 3: THERMOHALINE CIRCULATION). There is, in fact, some evidence of just such a slowdown, in the subpolar North Atlantic during the 1990s (in contrast to the late 1970s and 1980s), though its cause is unclear. Lacking needed data from prior to 1978, when satellite monitoring of the oceans began, it cannot be determined if the slowing circulation is part of a normal decade-long cycle, or due to a warming of the water involved in that circulation (Häkkinen and Rhines, 2004).\nBut measuring the flow of the various Atlantic currents which contribute to the Great Ocean Conveyor has proven quite difficult. One study, relying on direct ocean measurements rather than those by satellite, found a significant (50%) reduction in the southward flow of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW), a critical component of oceanic thermohaline circulation. Based on five oceanographic surveys made between 1957 and 2004 (1957, 1981, 1992, 1998, 2004), the study also found that half of the Gulf Stream's water failed to reach the Atlantic's far north (Bryden, 2005; Kerr, 2005).\nSuch surveys, using data from instruments which measure water density lowered from oceanographic ships, are nonetheless subject to quite high levels of uncertainty, and indeed, have failed to be confirmed. A new system of satellite-linked oceanographic buoys, strung across the mid-North Atlantic, now shows that marine circulation is much more variable than previously suspected. The new data suggest that it may be decades before a clear pattern emerges (Kerr, 2006). Nonetheless, an IPCC prediction indicates that the thermohaline conveyor may slow by as much as 25% by 2100 (Schiermeier, 2006).\nIt had been thought that a slowdown or\nshutdown would have enormous consequences for human populations\nliving on both sides of the North Atlantic through the cooling\nthat would ensue when warmer waters did not reach the far north\n(Broecker, 2001). Though such cooling could not induce a new ice\nage (though some have mistakenly thought so), it could nonetheless\nbe precipitous. In particular, it was noted that in one Ice Age\nepisode, Greenland temperatures fell by 10°C (18°F) in\njust a decade (Kerr, 2004). But now that we have a better understanding\nof the rapidity with which global warming will overtake us, the\nNorth Atlantic deep freeze scenario has now been dismissed as\nunlikely. It will not be cold about which those in northern Europe,\neastern Canada, and the northeastern United States will have to\nbe concerned, but warming itself, just like everyone else.\nAs the planet continues to warm, so will the oceans. The Southern Ocean, at mid-depths, has warmed by 0.17°C (about 0.3°F) since the 1950s (Gille, 2002). New data from the North Pacific confirms that even at great depths, 5000 meters (three miles) and below, seawater temperature has risen by 0.005°C (0.009°F). This is a tiny change, but it occurs where there should be no change at all. And it occurs across the entire North Pacific, a distance of many thousands of kilometers (several thousand miles), from off Washington state to Japan, as surveyed mostly along latitude 47°N. (The distance is approximately one-quarter of the circumference of the globe at the latitude surveyed.) And the warming occurred in just 14 years, between 1985 and 1999 (Fukasawa, 2004).\nThere should be no change in deep-ocean temperatures because the deep ocean is quite isolated from the upper ocean, at least on short time scales. This deep ocean water should not have been in contact with the surface in 800 years (Davidson, 2004). Textbook time for ocean mixing -- the amount of time it takes for a mass of ocean water to blend with other ocean water -- is 1000 years. This slow rate, and the isolation of deep water from the surface, means that there should have been no warming whatsoever in the period studied. The fact that there has been such warming is a matter of surprise and concern -- and even alarm -- to oceanographers.\nThe oceans are the roach motel of global warming. In the case of the oceans, it is heat which checks in but doesn't check out. Water has an extraordinary heat capacity. In other words, it holds heat better than almost anything else. That means that when the oceans warm, they lose that heat only slowly and reluctantly. Ocean heat stays around for a long time. And most of the heat from global warming -- over 90% -- goes into the oceans.\nAnd the oceans hold 99% of the world's\nsupply of methane hydrate; the rest is in permafrost. Inevitably,\nin a warming world, hydrate methane will also be released from\npermafrost, but its quantity pales to insignificance compared\nto that in the oceans. Moreover, it is not merely hydrate methane\nthat will be released, but also free methane from below the BSR.\nThe New BSR\nIt used to be thought that the depth of the methane hydrates within the ocean floor sediments would delay and perhaps prevent methane release with global warming. This thinking was based on the amount of time it would take for warmth from the overlying ocean to penetrate the sediments, and upon scientific understanding of the physical contours of the methane hydrate deposits. The bottom simulating reflectors (BSRs) that marked the boundary between the overlying hydrate and the underlying free methane closely mimicked the contours of the ocean floor (hence their name), though generally several hundred meters deeper.\nThese contours were fairly smooth and gently rolling (see the sonar image of the \"old\" BSR, above, in the Methane and Methane Hydrates, Part 2, section), and the upper boundary of the hydrate was similarly presumed to be relatively smooth. Because this hydrate methane was thought to be located well below the seafloor, it was assumed that heat from global warming would take a long time to penetrate that far, and that any significant release of margin methane would take place at least hundreds (Kvenvolden,1988a), and perhaps thousands of years in the future. Even employing \"worst case estimates,\" little methane release was presumed to be possible, because about 98% of methane hydrate is found in sediment conditions which would require a 4°C (7.2°F) warming to dissociate (Harvey and Huang, 1995).\nSuch findings could provide consolation\nto those concerned about the possibility of a near-term methane\ncatastrophe, were it not for the qualifying statement heading\na list of conclusions: \"In the absence of fracturing or sediment\nfailure...\" (Harvey and Huang, 1995). If fracturing or sediment\nfailure were indeed possible, the comforting conclusions would\nnot be valid. In fact, however, fracturing and slumping (sediment\nfailure) turn out to be the major modes by which large quantities\nof hydrate methane can be released.\nNew, more detailed sonar images have completely changed our understanding of BSR topography. Instead of being fairly smooth and gently rolling, the BSR surface is now known to be punctuated with sharp, needle-like peaks, columns, and discontinuous knife-edge ridges, which may extend all the way up to the top of the sediment. These features apparently represent escape routes for free and dissociated methane, which at times follows \"chimneys\" (the needle-like peaks and columns), and at others follows faults (the knife-edge ridges) through the consolidated sediments (Wood, 2002; Pecher, 2002). [Sonar image from Wood, 2002.]\nThese escape routes are apparently in regular use. If they were not, we would expect that the free gas below the hydrate would gradually accumulate and build up pressure. Eventually, the pressure would lead to a blowout, and explosive release of the gas from its trap under the hydrate. Though such blowouts may occur occasionally, they are probably not common, because the faults and chimneys allow methane to escape from below the hydrate. The escape routes serve as safety valves.\nA careful examination of the pressure of the free gas below the hydrate on several passive margins shows it to be essentially identical to the pressure needed to pry open overlying faults (Hornbach, 2004). This pressure is referred to as the critical pressure, and the amount of free methane under the hydrate is, in passive basins, at critical pressure. Free gas tends to remain at critical pressure because it forces open the safety valve when the pressure of the gas exceeds the critical pressure. When the free gas is at less than the critical pressure, the safety valve remains closed.\nSeafloor faults thus seem to be highly responsive as pressure safety valves. In those active margins where oceanic plates are subducting beneath continents, the pressure being applied to the wedge of sediments piled against the continent (the accretionary wedge) forces fluids up through the hydrates. This process, called hydraulic fracturing, creates temporary pathways through the sediments, and allows free and dissociating methane to escape (Zühlsdorff and Spieß, 2004).\nBecause many active continental margins are being compressed by the forcing together of tectonic plates, it is not surprising that faulting and fracturing should be common there. On passive margins, by contrast, faulting should be much less. Therefore, there should be less free gas, and less pressure, under hydrate on active margins than on passive ones. And, indeed, that is the case: on the Blake Ridge off the Florida-Carolina coast (a passive margin), the free gas column is 200 to 250 meters (yards) thick. Other passive basins display similar free gas column heights. But the free gas columns in active margins are much less: typically about 35 meters thick, they rarely exceed 50 meters (Hornbach, 2004).\nSonar images of an active margin area,\noff the west coast of Canada's Vancouver Island, reveal the same\nsort of wipeout zones (transparent to sonar: here they are referred\nto as \"blanking zones\"; Zühlsdorff and Spieß,\n2004), as reported elsewhere (Wood, 2002). The seafloor surface\nexhibits a pockmark, a familiar sign of fluid venting, with massive\ngas hydrate lying at only 3 to 8 meters (yards) depth (Riedel,\n2002). It is presumably the process of hydraulic fracturing which\nallows a rather free flow of methane out of the hydrate zone,\nand prevents the buildup to critical pressures found in passive\nmargins and basins. The process, in fact, may be important for\nmethane release in all margin settings (Zühlsdorff and Spieß,\nThus free methane, as well as hydrate,\nextends in places to, or almost to, the seafloor, where it can\nbe -- and presumably is -- released into the ocean. This means\nthat at least part of the oceanic methane reservoir is much more\naccessible to warming than previously thought. The gas chimneys\nand faults that serve as escape routes for methane are therefore\nlikely to be highly responsive to the oceanic warming that is\naccompanying global warming generally. Consequently, assumptions\nabout the relative remoteness and inaccessability of oceanic hydrates\nwill have to be scrapped. Clearly, methane hydrates and the free\nmethane below them are considerably more vulnerable to warming\nthan was previously presumed. Most dismayingly, there may be little\nlag time -- or even no lag time whatsoever -- between ocean bottom\nwarming, and the initiation of seafloor methane release in response.\nInevitably, then, with the amount of global warming projected to occur in the next century or so, most or all seafloor methane will be released. Exactly how fast that release will take -- and how catastrophic that release will therefore be -- is something that can at best be only dimly glimpsed. Clearly there are some critical parameters which are unknowable or must be guessed at.\nInitially, methane from hydrate will slowly trickle out of the sediments as the oceans warm. In fact, some undoubtedly is trickling out right now, contributing (along with other sources such as the increasing number of ruminants and increasing rice cultivation) to the slow rise of methane detected in the atmosphere. At some point, however, the gradual mode of methane release is likely to shift to a pattern of more abrupt, episodic releases, as oceanic warmth penetrates more deeply into the sediments. There will be rapid depressurization of hydrate at the base of the hydrate stability zone because of the release of free gas through warmed chimneys, leading to hydrate dissociation and release. Or there will be a submarine landslide, triggered by the melting of the hydrate and the consequent destabilization of deep sediment, or by an earthquake once the hydrate has been brought to the point of destabilization by the warming.\n(A triggering earthquake could be just an ordinary quake, which are common on active continental margins -- hence their description as \"active\" -- or could actually be the result of the warming, which would increase the weight of the overlying water on continental slopes. Warming increases the water weight on the continental margins, including the slopes, because it causes the thermal expansion of water. Thermal expansion means that the volume of the water increases, but not its total weight, which remains the same. But since this increased volume is proportionately greater over the shallower portions of the ocean, the weight of water there increases, while the weight decreases in the deep ocean where the volume increase is proportionately smaller. See the diagram of the thermal expansion of water in the Methane and Methane Hydrates section.)\nDuring the initial phases of more episodic\nreleases, the rate of methane release will sharply increase. If\nthe release is caused by a submarine landslide, most of the associated\nmethane will be released in less than a day. If close to shore,\nthe slide may produce a significant tsunami.\nA tsunami is just another unpleasant possible effect of a submarine landslide. In 1998, a 7.1 earthquake caused about 4 cubic kilometers (a cubic mile) of sediment to slide down a 25° seafloor slope a short distance offshore from the southwestern Pacific island of Papua-New Guinea. A 7 to 10 meter (yard) high tsunami (perhaps as high as 15 meters/50 feet in the area hardest hit) inundated the shore just moments later, sweeping away several villages and over 2000 coastal inhabitants (Chang, 2002).\nTsunamis caused by submarine landslides are not uncommon. (The December 2004 tsunami which devastated countries around the Indian Ocean was not caused by a submarine landslide, but by a magnitude 9.0 earthquake off the Indonesian island of Sumatra. The earthquake caused a huge movement of the seafloor, and it was this movement which produced the tsunami.) Usually their effects are confined locally, though this depends on the magnitude of the slide and its proximity to the coast, among other factors. Larger landslides do cause bigger tsunamis, other things being equal. And depending on their size, tsunamis may have regional or even hemispheric rather than merely local effects.\nIn November 1929, a 7.2 magnitude earthquake south of the coast of Newfoundland caused a significant undersea slump which cut a dozen transatlantic telecommunication cables from North America to Europe. It is estimated that the slump carried between 300 and 700 cubic kilometers (about 70 to 170 cubic miles) of sediment.\nOriginating on the continental slope, the Grand Banks slide tore asunder some half dozen cables, and the turbidity current -- a slurry of seawater and sediment -- that it engendered ripped apart an additional six. Every cable was broken in at least two places more than a hundred and sixty-five kilometers (a hundred miles) apart, indicating both the great width of the slide and turbidity current, and its speed, estimated at its origin as eighty to one hundred kilometers (about fifty to sixty miles) an hour. Despite continuously depositing its load of sand, mud and silt, the turbidity current still retained enough force to sever a final cable over 800 km (500 miles) seaward (Heezen, 1952).\nThe height of the resulting tsunami was\n7 meters (22 feet). But bays and harbors, because of their constricted\nshape, tend to channel tsunamis to more destructive heights as\nthey funnel inland. This fact is reflected in the name \"tsunami,\"\na Japanese word composed of \"tsu\" meaning harbor, and\n\"nami\" meaning wave. In the case of the Newfoundland\ntsunami, the channeling effect caused wave heights to run up to\nas high as 13 meters (40 feet) in some bays, destroying fishing\nvessels and harbor buildings and killing about 28 people (Ruffman,\nThough the Grand Banks slide was probably the result of the earthquake shaking of waterlogged sediments, some submarine landslides very likely or certainly have involved free methane gas and methane hydrate, as did the Storegga slide mentioned previously. The East Coast of the United States holds its own methane-related hazards, and as scientists have come to know the marine world better, these hazards have become clearer. The relic of a major slide, roughly equivalent in volume to that of the 1929 slide off Newfoundland, has been found off the coast of North Carolina. Estimated to have taken place about 20,000 years ago, the Albemarle-Currituck slide is of ice age vintage, though it presumably was not triggered either by the weight of the glaciation or by glacial rebound, as there was no continental ice sheet within hundreds of miles.\nRecently marine geologists discovered cracks on the outer edge of the continental shelf (at the \"shelf-slope break\") along the Virginia-North Carolina coast to the north of the Albemarle-Currituck slide. Similar cracks have also been found on the edge of the continental shelf off New Jersey. On the North Carolina-Virginia shelf edge, these cracks have caused the shelf edge to slump down as much as 50 meters (160 feet)(Driscoll, 2000). On closer inspection, however, the cracks have proven not to be simple cracks at all, but elongated craters as much as two by five kilometers (about 1.2 by 3 miles) in extent (Simpson, 2000).\nThese craters may be evidence of the rapid, or even explosive, expulsion of methane-laden fluids from the upper slope sediments, and could contribute to slope failure, resulting in major submarine landslides. Such landslides could result in significant tsunamis along the central section of the East Coast, the discoverers of the Virginia-North Carolina shelf edge cracks have warned (Driscoll, 2000). A rapid slope failure similar in volume to that of the Albemarle-Currituck slide could set loose a tsunami up to several meters (yards) high, equivalent to storm surges from major hurricanes.\nAs with major storm surges, the actual devastation that an East Coast tsunami would cause would depend on the topography of the coast where it hit, together with the height of the tide at the time. (The northern part of the American East Coast may be particularly vulnerable because it has numerous estuaries -- Chesapeake Bay, Delaware Bay, New York Harbor -- which can channel water to major low-lying population centers.) But in important respects tsunamis differ from the water rise of a storm surge. First and perhaps most important, there would not be the lengthy warning that accompanies the approach of a hurricane.\nSecond, tsunamis are often preceded,\nby several minutes to about a half hour, by an actual drawdown\nof sea level of a few to several meters (yards). This surprising\nprecursor to a tsunami caused several deaths when it occurred\nalong the French Riviera in response to a submarine earthquake\nabout thirty years ago. Curious but unsuspecting bathers, lured\nby the withdrawal of the Mediterranean and the exposure of sea\nbottom normally unseen even at the lowest of tides, wandered out\nfar from shore. There they were caught when the actual tsunami\nwaves, several meters high, came rolling in a short time later.\nThis third and last difference between tsunamis and storm surges,\nthat of the rapid buildup and breaking of walls of water against\nthe coast, rather than the more gradual rise that accompanies\nhurricanes, may come several minutes to an hour after the sea\nhas withdrawn (Driscoll, 2000).\nAny continental slope landslide, however triggered, has the ability to virtually instantaneously release most of the methane from the landslide material itself. After such a landslide, residual methane from the landslide scar would be released for weeks to months afterwards. As with earthquakes and aftershocks, an initial landslide event can trigger additional slides, generally smaller than the initial slide, but with the non-negligible possibility of an even greater slide. The amount of the release, obviously, depends on the quantity of methane that lay below the slide area.\nThere is no way to predict how large the methane release from an initial slump might be. This depends on initial conditions on the seafloor: the stability of the methane hydrate-containing portion of the continental shelf in one place versus another, the amount of oceanic warming in specific regions of the ocean, the amount of hydrate and free gas in the affected area. Oceanic areas close to the poles will be more vulnerable to methane release for several reasons. First, their stores of hydrate extend to shallower depths. Second, at shallower depths, sediments are usually of more recent origin, are less compacted and therefore less stable. Third, many of these areas are still rebounding from the release of the weight of the great continental ice sheets that lay upon them during the ice age. Fourth, global warming is projected to warm high-latitude (near polar) areas more than mid- or low-latitude (temperate or tropical) areas, and indeed, it is already doing so.\nBy the time of an initial methane-related slump, however, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and its resultant global warming will have well exceeded that needed to trigger the initial event. In addition, the slump's methane and its successor gas, carbon dioxide, will contribute to further global warming, and the warming of the oceans may insure that additional slides follow. Indeed, the slides may continue intermittently over a period of hundreds to thousands of years. Their number and severity will depend, as with the initial slide, on factors such as slope stability, sediment consolidation and water content, and regional fault activity, together with the rate of oceanic warming and changes in global thermohaline circulation and local currents.\nEventually the slumping must slow and\nstop, because the warming of the sediment takes increasing time\nwith increased depth (Nisbet, 1990). As slumping slows, methane\ninput to the atmosphere will also decline, reducing and eventually\nremoving the source of the warming. By that time, of course, the\nuse of fossil fuels will have long ago ceased, if not from the\ndesire to prevent further damage to the planet, then because fossil\nfuels will have been completely exhausted. At current rates of\nuse, most of Earth's petroleum will be gone in fifty years, natural\ngas in sixty, and even coal, the supply of which is expected to\nlast some 300 years at current use rates, will be a distant memory.\nThe two possible modes of catastrophically rapid methane release, slumping and massive dissociation (combined with the release of the free methane gas which lies below), are each quite unpredictable, with regard to when each might begin, how long the process might continue, and how much methane could be released. The problem is compounded by the probability that the two modes could be combined in many circumstances.\nAs oceanic temperatures rise, the warmth will first begin to liberate the free gas and hydrate closest to the sediment surface, in places (the \"escape routes\") just a few tens of meters down. Reopening the escape routes (chimneys and faults), will allow the further escape of free gas that is buried more deeply under the main bodies of hydrate, hundreds of meters below. This in turn will depressurize the hydrate at its base, allowing its dissociation and release. Finally, this increasing dissociation of hydrate will cause the destabilization of the entire sediment pile, causing slumping.\nJust as there is no way to predict how much methane will be released in an initial seafloor slump, there is no way to determine when an initial slump will occur. This depends, in part, on how close particular areas are to threshold conditions. A threshold is literally the sill of a doorway; it is the point where one enters or leaves a house or room. A threshold condition therefore is the place where change begins, from one condition to another. The conditions are often quite different. In the case of continental shelves, the threshold is between stability and instability, between \"just sitting there\" and sliding.\nBasically the situation with oceanic\nslope stability is no different from snow avalanches, except that\nwe know vastly more about how snow behaves. Consequently, we employ\nski patrols to assess how close mountain snow is to the threshold\nwhere it will let go, and we warn recreational skiers off slopes\nwhen those slopes approach threshold conditions. With oceanic\ncontinental slopes, however, we know vastly less about threshold\nconditions, vastly less about the quantity and location of methane\nhydrate and free methane that lie within the slopes, and have\nvastly more area that would require assessment. Because of the\nmany uncertainties and high cost of such assessments, it seems\nhighly improbable that they would ever be done.\nThe slumping of continental margins due to the warming of methane hydrate differs in another, extremely important way from snow avalanches. With snow avalanches, with sufficient warning, not only can we warn people away, but we can also trigger the avalanche ourselves by the use of explosives. In many mountainous areas there are even artillery emplacements, from which shells can be fired to cause avalanches to occur when they may do so most safely. In other areas giant gas burners are used to preemptively trigger avalanches. These measures can provide some control over avalanches, at least in those places we monitor and where we take remedial action. With hydrate-related submarine slides, we have no such option, even if we had the advance warning and the actual power to trigger such slumps, which we do not. Advance triggering would only cause the problem we would be trying to avert: the release of methane from the seafloor. Our one option is prevention: stopping the slumping before it starts. And that requires that we stop warming the planet.\nOnce massive dissociation and/or slumping begins, there will be no way to stop them. Indeed, there will be no way to stop these processes even from well before they start, because of the lag time between increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide and the warming of the globe and the seafloor sediments in which the methane hydrates and free methane reside. As NASA climate modeler James Hansen has pointed out, \"even if rising concentrations of greenhouse gases could be stabilized tomorrow, gases that have already accumulated [in the atmosphere] will push surface temperatures up another half degree or so\" (Kerr, 2000), an assessment which is supported by others (Miehl, 2005).\nThis amount of additional warming is known as the \"warming commitment\" because it represents the amount of warming we are committed to, even without additional carbon dioxide being dumped into the atmosphere. Some climate modelers believe the present warming commitment is even greater than Hansen and Miehl do, and that the planet could warm by another 1°C (1.8°F) over the next twenty years (Wetherald, 2001) or more (Wigley, 2005). As time goes on, and carbon dioxide continues to be dumped into the atmosphere, the amount of the warming commitment will continue to increase.\nAt some unknown point -- another threshold -- the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will be sufficient to eventually induce the warming of continental slopes enough to trigger enhanced methane venting, hydrate dissociation, and sediment slumping. Then there will be a period of time -- more lag time -- before massive dissociation and slumping actually begin. During this time the atmosphere will be warming, and the oceans will be warming, and the sediments on the seafloor will be warming. Of course, that is exactly what is going on now, so it is possible that we have actually crossed the carbon dioxide threshold needed for these processes to occur, and that some considerable seafloor methane release is now inevitable.\nIt is also possible that we have not crossed that threshold, and may not for many more decades, or even centuries. The time, however, is short. Commenting on the determination that climate sensitivity (with a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide) may range from 1.9°C to 11.5°C (Stainforth, 2005), Oxford University physicist Myles Allen indicated that \"uncertainty over global warming may mean that no such [safe] threshold [for atmospheric carbon dioxide levels] may exist... 'The danger zone is not something in the future,' he says, 'We're in it now'\" (Hopkin, 2005).\nCertainly, based on numerous projections\nof global warming, the world will be considerably warmer by the\nend of this century. Although various estimates of the size of\nthe temperature increase differ (the Stainforth study suggests\nthat a 3.4°C [6.1°F] increase is most likely with a doubling\nof atmospheric carbon dioxide, and the best 2007 IPCC estimate\nis 3.0°C [5.4°F]), virtually all estimates project an\nincrease. Moreover, it is important to remember that although\nmost estimates of carbon dioxide release and consequent global\nwarming project only until the end of the current century (or\nto a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide from pre-industrial\nlevels, which most models assume will occur about that time),\nthere is no reason to believe that the anthropogenic warming of\nthe planet will cease at that point, and, indeed, every reason\nto believe it will continue.\nThe existence of lag time, but of unknown length, means that we will not suffer the consequences that can ensue when there is immediate feedback. When someone puts a hand on a hot stove, the message is received immediately. But when negative consequences do not immediately follow, there is a tendency to continue behaving the same way as in the past. It is likely, therefore, that carbon dioxide emissions will continue until there is clear, dramatic, and unambiguously negative feedback. That is, until catastrophe. Of course, at that point we will have dumped sufficient amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere that serious warming will continue for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years, into the future -- even if we were to stop the dumping immediately.\n\"The added carbon dioxide declines\nin a markedly non-exponential manner [that is, not in a smooth,\ngeometric curve]\", state the authors of a section of the\n1990 IPCC report (Shine, 1990). \"There is an initial fast\ndecline over the first 10 years period, followed by a more gradual\ndecline over the next 100 years and a rather slow decline over\nthe thousand year time-scale. The time period for the first half-life\n[during which half the added carbon dioxide will be gone] is typically\naround 50 years, for the second [during which half of the remaining\nadded carbon dioxide will be gone], about 250 years\" (Shine,\nCalculations such as this have led many to believe that the carbon dioxide we add to the atmosphere will be mostly gone in just a few centuries, or in a thousand years at the most. Even the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) states that the lifetime of carbon dioxide is up to 200 years. According to geophysicist David Archer, however, such projections are in error. His own calculations indicate that \"about 7% of carbon [in carbon dioxide] released today will still be in the atmosphere in 100,000 years.\" He further states, \"A better shorthand for public discussion might be that CO¸2 sticks around for hundreds of years, plus 25% that sticks around forever\" (Archer, 2005). Not quite forever, perhaps, but long enough that it could remain a problem far, far into the future. The carbon dioxide we have already dumped into the atmosphere, and that which we will dump, in other words, will not easily go away. Neither will the warming it produces.\nUndoubtedly the warming that the planet\nhas experienced in the twentieth century has already caused the\nrelease of additional methane from permafrost and the continental\nmargins. There is no way that it could be otherwise: warming releases\nmethane. Furthermore, the rate of methane release will continue\nto increase as we continue to warm the Earth. Just when this release\nwill shift from a more gradual to a more catastrophic mode (from\nchronic to acute, to use the medical terms), is unpredictable.\nThis shift certainly depends on just how close to threshold conditions\ncontinental margin methane is, which is something we have no way\nof knowing. (Permafrost methane, although it potentially could\nmake a major contribution to global warming, is likely to only\nbe released gradually, though the rate of increase could change\nWhen? How long?\nA methane catastrophe can be divided\nin two parts, the initial or onset stage, together with that stage's\nimmediate consequences, and the longer-term consequences.\nFor a methane catastrophe to occur, methane must be released in a short period of time. As mentioned previously (at the start of the Methane Catastrophe section), scenarios which allow for methane release over long periods (as many tens of thousands to millions of years) cannot produce catastrophic consequences because the excess methane released into the ocean would be consumed by normal atmospheric and marine oxidation processes, and by expanded populations of marine methanotrophs, other essential nutrients being present. To produce catastrophic consequences, the duration of the initial methane release must be a thousand years or possibly a lot less, precisely to avoid these oxidation processes and the possibility of a methanotroph population explosion.\nIt is important to note that once in the atmosphere methane is oxidized in less than ten years, though large quantities will temporarily overwhelm the oxidation system and allow for more extended atmospheric lifetimes. Nonetheless, even with a sudden and massive release the initial methane will be around for only a limited period of time. Its successor, carbon dioxide, will remain in the atmosphere considerably longer, but even the level of carbon dioxide will decline as it is taken up by photosynthetic organisms, the weathering of silicate rocks, and the ocean.\nThere is a second consideration which suggests that the onset stage of methane catastrophes cannot be protracted in length. Microbes can reproduce at quite extraordinary rates when nutrients are present and conditions favorable. Under optimal conditions in the laboratory, for example, the gut bacterium E. coli can double in number about every twenty minutes. Bacterial methanotrophs presumably have similarly high reproductive rates. While some methanotrophs are not bacteria, and are -- being archaea -- extremely difficult to cultivate in laboratories, their potential reproductive rates are also probably quite high. A gradual, extended increase in ambient oceanic methane, therefore, would presumably be easily consumed by the methanotrophs.\nA methane catastrophe wreaks its havoc via four primary killing mechanisms -- oceanic anoxia, acid rain, and global warming. For these mechanisms to be maximally effective, they must operate over a very limited period of time. (As mentioned previously, rate is critical.) With the level of excess atmospheric carbon dioxide and acid rain starting to decline just as soon as they are produced (see Watson, 1990, diagram, above, for carbon dioxide decline), and the global heat the carbon dioxide engenders following closely -- though more slowly -- upon, the faster methane delivers its wallop, the more powerful it is.\nThe work of numerous scientists has set an upper limit on the possible length of the Paleocene-Eocene methane release by their determinations of the duration of the carbon isotope excursion. Dickens (1995) found it took less than 10,000 years; Bralower (1997), about 6000 years; Katz (1999), less than 5000 years; Norris and Röhl (1999) \"a few thousand years or less.\" Kennett and Stott's 1991 finding that Southern Ocean temperatures jumped about 8°C in only 2000 years probably further constrains the length of the Paleocene-Eocene methane release. Considering that the faster it is, the stronger the punch, therefore, an upper limit of a few centuries to possibly a thousand years for the initial methane release is not unreasonable. To the extent that seafloor methane was released (at least in part) at the end of the Paleocene and the end of the Permian via the intrusion of magmatic sills (which must be emplaced on a time scale of decades: Svensen, 2004), the release time might have been shorter still.\nIt should be emphasized that this is\nsimply the initial, catastrophe-producing release: the initial\njolt. As projected here, the altered climate and oceanic conditions\ncan last for millions of years, as they did after the initial\ncatastrophic methane release of the end-Permian. This is because\nthe initial jolt, with its anoxia, acid rain, and global heat,\nso reorganizes the global climate and ocean system that dramatically\nchanged conditions can persist for great lengths of time before\nand as recovery occurs. As modeled by Dickens (1997), for example,\nthe residual heat from a major methane release might last for\ntwo million years or so, though the main warming would quickly\nfollow the release, and only minor warming would persist longer.\nTriggers, Present and Past\nThe same \"the faster it is, the stronger the punch\" logic that governed the Paleocene-Eocene warming applies as well to the methane release triggering mechanism, increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide. With our profligate burning of carbon fuels, however, carbon dioxide seems to be entering the atmosphere at a rate vastly faster than with any normal natural process.\nWe have already consumed almost half of the world's supply of petroleum. The estimates of the total amount of recoverable petroleum differ, and some petroleum experts believe that it will be another decade or two before we reach that halfway point. Nonetheless, within another fifty years, most of the rest of the world's petroleum will be gone. That means that we will no longer have to worry about carbon dioxide emissions from petroleum-derived gasoline and other fuels. (Petroleum is used for other purposes than fuel, such as for plastics, paraffin, lubricants, and asphalt, but its primary use is to be burned for energy.) All the carbon dioxide from those emissions will already have been dumped into the atmosphere, although much will enter the ocean thereafter. (Fortunately for those who cannot live without the internal combustion engine, gasoline can be made from coal, as it was by the Germans during World War II.)\nNot only will most of the world's petroleum be gone in some fifty years, in sixty to seventy years, most of its ordinary natural gas (that is, excluding that hydrate methane currently locked in permafrost or in continental margins) will also be exhausted. Each of these carbon reservoirs (petroleum and natural gas) is estimated to hold about 500 billion metric tons (each roughly equivalent to an imperial, or American, ton) of carbon (Kasting, 1998). Burned for their energy and injected into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, that's more than enough carbon than is needed to double the atmosphere's current carbon reservoir (now approaching 800 billion metric tons).\nThe Earth's reserves of coal, the most plentiful of the fossil fuels, will last a bit longer: for 220 years, according to some estimates; for 300 or more, according to others. Obviously, however, and within two centuries, most of the planet's coal will also have found its way -- as carbon dioxide -- into the atmosphere and oceans. And there's an estimated 4000 billion metric tons of carbon (Kasting, 1998) that awaits its release via the burning of coal. That's more than five times the amount currently in the atmosphere.\nFor most climate change modeling purposes, future global warming is estimated on the basis of a doubling of pre-industrial atmospheric carbon dioxide. Such a doubling is projected to occur, at current rates of carbon dioxide emissions, before the end of the current century. (Measurements from the Mauna Loa Observatory now indicate the doubling period may be closer to sixty than to one hundred years.) Possibly because of the uncertainties associated with current projections of global warming, few models examine what could happen as the dumping of carbon dioxide continues beyond the point where atmospheric carbon dioxide has doubled, but based on our current use patterns, such dumping is almost certain to continue.\nAs paleoclimatologist (one who studies\nancient climates) James Kasting has noted (1998), we have the\nability not only to double the pre-industrial level of atmospheric\ncarbon dioxide once, but to double it again, and double it yet\nagain. (And, it should be added, we could actually come close\nto doubling it a fourth time!) And all in a period of perhaps\njust over two centuries, or three at most. In short, in addition\nto the carbon dioxide we have already dumped into the atmosphere,\nwe have the ability to dump lots more, and probably will. Enough\nto thoroughly and rapidly warm the planet, and trigger a methane\nThe past 500 million years have recorded only a small number of methane catastrophes. Those of the end-Permian, the end-Triassic, the Jurassic (Toarcian and Oxfordian), the Paleocene-Eocene, and perhaps a few of lesser importance in the early Cretaceous may comprise the entire list. Probably only these satisfy the prerequisite of a rapid and significant warming trigger.\nFor the greatest of these events -- those of the end-Permian, the end-Triassic, the Paleocene-Eocene, and the Toarcian -- the warming trigger was presumably twofold. The most important trigger for each of these events was probably the direct intrusion of seafloor sediments by volcanic magma during the eruptions which created large igneous provinces: the Siberian Traps, the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (CAMP), the North Atlantic Igneous Province (NAIP), and the Karroo Igneous Province, respectively (Vermeij and Dorritie, 1996; Dorritie, 2002; Svensen, 2004). In addition to directly heating the hydrate-bearing sediments, the magma also warmed the marine sediments and, thereby, the ocean. Where the ocean basin was small and restricted in its circulation, as with CAMP, the NAIP, and the Karroo Igneous Province, oceanic warming would have been more effective than if the massive volcanism took place in a less enclosed setting. But colder regions (as with the Siberian Traps) would have been more seriously impacted than warmer ones, other things being equal.\nEach of these eruptive sequences probably\nhad a large underwater component, although some may have had a\nmajor subaerial (under the air, that is, terrestrial) component\nas well. But all of these eruptive sequences injected large quantities\nof carbon dioxide into the atmosphere (the Central Atlantic Magmatic\nProvince and the Siberian Traps most), the submarine eruptions\nacidifying the ocean locally as the carbon dioxide rose through\nthe water column. This injection of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere\ncaused a general warming of the surface of the planet, much as\nwe are doing today. Except that our own (anthropogenic) carbon\ndioxide release is probably proceeding considerably faster than\nthe volcanogenic carbon dioxide injections of the past. [My own\n\"back-of-the-envelope\" calculations indicate that we\nare currently injecting carbon dioxide into the atmosphere at\na rate that is somewhere between ten and hundreds of times faster\nthan the average rate of volcanic degassing during the eruption\nof the Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (CAMP degassing estimates\nfrom Beerling and Berner, 2002). The anthropogenic injection rate,\nmoreover, is constantly increasing.]\nIt is certain that the methane that is now being released from permafrost and the seafloor will contribute to global warming, initially as methane, with a greenhouse capacity that vastly exceeds that of carbon dioxide, and then, upon oxidation, as carbon dioxide itself. With a greenhouse warming ability more than 20 times carbon dioxide, methane that reaches the atmosphere (and much that is released is likely to do so, because it will exceed the current capacity of the marine methanotrophs to consume it) has the potential of doing far more damage to the planet's climate and biosphere than all the carbon dioxide that has been and will likely be released into the atmosphere by the burning of fossil fuels.\nSimple arithmetic shows why. The total amount of carbon locked up in fossil fuels is about 5000 billion metric tons (each slightly more than an imperial ton). As mentioned, in less than 100 years, almost all the carbon from petroleum and natural gas will have been converted to carbon dioxide; by about 300 years from now, all the coal will be gone as well. So in about 300 years, much of 5000 billion metric tons of carbon will have moved into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide, and about half may then wind up in the ocean, where it will no longer help warm the planet, but will continue to acidify the ocean. (There are other natural \"sinks\" for carbon dioxide besides the ocean, but research indicates that the absorptive capacity these sinks may change greatly over time. Consequently, we should not be depending on such natural sponges for soaking up the carbon dioxide we are pumping into the atmosphere.) This carbon dioxide -- alone -- contains an amount of carbon equivalent to almost ten times the amount of carbon that was in the atmosphere at the beginning of the industrial age, and roughly seven times that of the present.\nBy contrast, there may be more than 10,000 billion metric tons of methane carbon that can be released from the seafloor. Though this quantity is only twice that of the carbon in fossil fuels, it possesses more than 40 times the short-term warming potential of carbon dioxide. A 'mere' 250 billion metric tons of methane carbon -- less than 1/40th (2.5%) of the estimated total seafloor methane carbon reservoir -- has the warming capacity of all fossil fuel carbon. Looked at another way, a release of just 1% of seafloor methane (somewhat more than 100 billion metric tons) has a warming potential several times greater than the amount of anthropogenic carbon dioxide which scientists project will enter the atmosphere in the next 60 to 100 years.\nThe geological record provides us with only minimal guidance as to what might be expected from major methane releases. Effects of the known methane catastrophes (at least those which rise to the level of \"catastrophe,\" which involves a several degree warming of atmosphere and ocean, and probably at least transient ocean anoxia), vary considerably. At the lower end of the range (represented by the oceanic anoxic events of the Toarcian, 183 million years ago, and Aptian, between 116 and 112 million years ago), there was limited global warming and transient deep ocean anoxia. More serious oceanic anoxia and warming seems to have occurred at the end of the Paleocene (the LPTM). Finally, in the most catastrophic event, at the end of the Permian, there was a stunning global warming, a euxinic ocean that lasted for millions of years, a significant drawdown of atmospheric oxygen, and the most massive of all mass extinctions.\nNo doubt variables such as the geographic location of particular methane-releasing submarine slumps, the general state of the global climate at the time, and the configuration of continents and oceans played a role in determining the severity of these catastrophes, but probably the most significant factors were the amount of and rate at which methane entered the atmosphere, and the length of time it remained there. While we have no way of estimating how much methane could enter the atmosphere as a result of current anthropogenic global warming, as noted above, even the release of a minute proportion of that which is available could wreak havoc on our planet.\nThere are too many factors of unknown size to allow any prediction of the long-term consequences of a future methane catastrophe. The end-Permian will not serve as a model, because the world was warmer then, even before the catastrophe. Furthermore, during the past twenty million years or so, the globe has cooled considerably. Many climatologists attribute this to the movement of Antarctica to its current position directly over the South Pole: if they are correct, the current cooler period of Earth's history will continue until Antarctica moves off the pole, an event at least tens of millions of years in the future.\nThe relatively greater warmth of the\nPermian period may have been a contributing factor to the oceanic\nanoxia of the Early Triassic. It is possible that in today's cooler\nworld, thermohaline circulation could be restored quickly, ventilating\nthe deep ocean, and allowing for rapid recovery. Even so, a \"rapid\"\nrecovery could take many millennia, perhaps tens or even hundreds\nof millennia. If the jolt to the climate system is great enough,\nhowever, and the ocean becomes largely anoxic, methane presumably\nwould continue to be produced by marine anaerobes until thermohaline\ncirculation, and therefore deep water oxidation, are restored.\nWhen will the input of methane overwhelm the global climate system?\nAgain, the unknown factors involved preclude a simple answer. With present-day carbon dioxide, we know the significant sources and have a fair sense of their coming likely concentrations in the atmosphere. There is no reason to expect that we will be surprised by a major release of carbon dioxide from an unanticipated source. As destructive as carbon dioxide is -- and will be -- for the Earth and its inhabitants, at least we have a fairly good understanding of it, and can -- if we choose -- have some control over it.\nThis is not the case with continental margin methane. Although we have a rough estimate of its global quantity, we have little idea of the details of its worldwide distribution. We have no idea of how close continental margins may be to the slumping threshold, which presumably varies from place to place. We do not know how long it will take for the oceans to warm as the atmosphere does. In fact, we are enormously surprised that they have warmed as much as they have (Fukasawa, 2004). We thought we knew how fast it would take for oceanic warming to reach the region of the methane hydrates (Harvey and Huang, 1995); we were wrong. Ocean warming will release continental margin methane much faster than we previously thought (Pecher, 2002; Wood, 2002; Zühlsdorff and Spieß, 2004).\nThe major factors involved in continental\nmargin methane release seem to be the following (assuming no major\nnear-term change in global thermohaline circulation):\n1. How fast the oceans are heating up, particularly to the depth of the deepest methane hydrates (about two kilometers, or 1.2 miles).\n2. How fast that heat takes to penetrate the sediments to the base of the gas hydrate stability zone (BGHSZ). (The BGHSZ, as previously mentioned, is identical with the BSR, the bottom-simulating reflector detected by sonar.)\n3. How much methane will be released through the venting of free gas and dissociating hydrate as the oceans warm.\n4. How close continental margins are to their slumping thresholds.\nWhile we cannot expect to know, except in retrospect, how close continental margins are to their slumping thresholds (item 4, above), or how rapidly free methane and dissociated hydrate methane can be released into the ocean and atmosphere (item 3, above), we may be able to obtain estimates for the first two factors. The amount of time it would take for ocean warming to penetrate the sediments to reach the hydrates (item 2, above) has in fact been estimated. With the findings about the \"roughness\" of the BSR, and the closeness of some hydrate and free gas to the seafloor surface (about 15 meters; Wood, 2002), the sediment penetration time may be as short as 55 years for a 6°C heat pulse (Pecher, 2002). At the other extreme, it could take thousands of years for a heat pulse to penetrate to the deepest hydrates.\nThe warming of the oceans may be a second factor that can be estimated, though we do not yet possess enough data to do so. We do know that down to a depth of 3000 meters (about 2 miles), the oceans have warmed 0.06°C (about 0.1°F). This is a minuscule amount of warming, but it has been determined with great precision based on millions of measurements (Levitus, 2000), so it is reliable. We also know that the globe as a whole warmed 0.6°C (1.1°F) plus or minus 0.2°C (about 0.4°F) during the 20th century (Levitus, 2000). That's 0.06°C ocean warming for 0.6°C global warming. Because the atmosphere warms first (it has the greenhouse gas) during global warming, and then it warms the ocean, ocean warming lags atmospheric warming. We therefore can state with reasonable assurance that the oceans will warm a minimum of about 0.1°C for every 1°C (that's the same ratio as 0.06°C is to 0.6°C) that the globe warms, at least in the near future.\nIf we then take the IPCC's maximum estimate for global warming for the 21st century (remembering that it may be a conservative estimate), that is, 5.8°C (10.4°F), we can say that the maximum ocean warming in the 21st century may be 0.58°C (1.04°F). \"May be\" should be stressed. It could be less, just as the IPCC's 21st century warming estimate ranges from 1.4°C (2.5°F) to 5.8°C (10.4°F). On the other hand, it may well be more. Only when we have more data, in another decade or so, will we be able to know the rate of oceanic warming with some reasonable certainty.\nThis small amount of projected deep ocean\nwarming (about 0.6°C/1°F in the 21st century) is unlikely\nto dissociate much hydrate. At such a slow rate of warming, it\nwould indeed be several centuries, if not much longer, before\neven the free gas and hydrate closest to the sediment surface\nbegan to be released. That is, if it took a significant heat pulse\n(of say, 6°C, or 10.8°F) to release continental margin\nmethane. But it does not. At least some free gas below the hydrates,\nremember, may be at threshold conditions, right now (Zühlsdorff\nand Spieß, 2004). That means that any warming whatsoever\n-- including the tiny amount of warming which has already occurred\n-- may be enough to trigger the release of at least some methane.\nLike the teapot on the stove in which the water is about to boil,\nany increase in global heat can set the whistle blowing -- or\nthe methane flowing. How much methane will be released is something\nwe will discover, but in view of the huge amounts of methane available\nin the continental margins, even a little may be sufficient to\ndramatically alter climate.\nGlobal warming and\nmethane release: A summary chart\nWhy the release may begin to arrive sooner than anticipated.\nThe release of methane from seafloor hydrate via the warming of seafloor sediments involves a number of processes. As atmospheric carbon dioxide increases, the atmosphere and surface of the Earth warm. This warming also warms the ocean. Eventually the ocean's increased warmth penetrates the sediments to hydrate depth. Estimates have been made about the duration of each of these processes. But more recent findings or modeling suggest that the processes may be proceeding more rapidly than the generally accepted views project:\n|Process||Generally accepted view||Cause for concern|\ncarbon dioxide increase\n|About 100 years to a doubling of CO¸2 from pre-industrial levels (at the long-term rate of increase of 1.8 ppmv per year). Pre-industrial CO¸2 was 280 ppmv; the current level of CO¸2 is 380 ppmv.||Recent measurements from the climate observatory\non Mauna Loa, Hawaii, indicate that the rate of increase may\nhave accelerated during the past five years (Lean, 2004). At\nthe current rate (2.2 ppmv), it will only be about 80 years to\na doubling of CO¸2. There is no reason to believe, however,\nCO¸2 accumulation in the atmosphere will stop at the arbitrary limit of only 560 ppmv, and every reason to believe that it will not.\n|Warming of atmosphere\n(\"climate sensitivity\": The usual way that climate sensitivity is estimated is with a projected doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide. Climate scientists frequently use the formula DT¸2X to describe this sensitivity. The D means a change in; the T is for global temperature; the 2X subscript refers to a doubling of carbon dioxide. )\n|IPCC says that with a CO¸2 doubling, global\ntemperatures at the end of the century will likely be in the\nrange of 1.4 to 5.8 °C (2.5 to 10.4°F)\nAccording to Kerr, 2004 (Three degrees of warming), the general consensus among climate scientists now is that a doubling of atmospheric CO¸2 will most likely produce a 3.0°C/5.4°F warming.\n|Kerr, 2004, does note, however, that while climate\nscientists generally agree on a lower bound of 1.5°C/2.7°F\nfor likely climate warming, and a most probable warming of 3.0°C/5.4°F,\nthere appears to be little agreement on the upper bound: \"The\ncalculation of sensitivity probabilities goes highly nonlinear\nat the high end, producing a small but statistically real chance\nof an extreme warming.\" This uncertainty is greatly compounded\nby the realization that it seems highly improbable that the anthropogenic\nincrease of atmospheric CO¸2 will cease with a mere doubling\nIn addition, climate modelers Andronova and Schlesinger (2001) foresee a warming of between 1.0°C and 9.3°C (1.8°F to 16.7°F) by the end of the century, and Alley has warned that global temperatures could rise 10°C (18°F) in just a short time, \"tripping the switch\" towards abrupt climate change in only a few decades (Showstack, 2001) The climate sensitivity projected by Andronova and Schlesinger has now received supprort from the largest climate modeling simulation ever done, the climateprediction.net experiment involving almost 100,000 home computers. With a doubling of atmospheric carbon dioxide, this study indicates that global warming could be as much as 1.9°C (3.4°F) to 11.5°C (20.7°F; Stainforth, 2005).\nResearch on the Cretaceous Period, specifically from about 90 million years ago, may provide further evidence that increased atmospheric carbon dioxide produces higher temperatures than previously believed. Instead of the earlier estimates that the warmest Cretaceous tropical ocean temperatures were around 9°C higher than today's (at about 28°C), they may have been as much as 14°C higher. Contemporaneous carbon dioxide levels are estimated at between two and six times today's 380 ppm. Perhaps more startling is the suggestion that one of the most-relied-upon climate models (GENESIS, developed at Penn State University) may be seriously underestimating climate sensitivity: in order to obtain the proper match between Cretaceous tropical ocean temperatures and atmospheric carbon dioxide levels, the assumed level of atmospheric methane had to be increased to some thirty times what it is today. Though these results require confirmation, they may be pointing to major shortcomings in at least some climate models (Bice, in press, cited in Kintisch, 2006).\nAn additional factor in the climate sensitivity models has now also changed. Surprisingly, it has changed because of something we are doing right: cleaning the air of pollutants. As we have reduced the level of aerosols (particularly those of sulfate, often found in coal, and thus released by coal-burning industries), their presence in the atmosphere has been reduced. But aerosols actually help cool the atmosphere, as we have known for some time. The amount of cooling, however, was only estimated. Now, as skies have become clearer, we have a better understanding of just how much cooling the aerosols contributed. It is considerably more than most computer climate models had assumed. When these new, observation-based figures are plugged into the climate models, they indicate \"that future global warming may proceed at or even above the upper extreme of the range projected by the IPCC\" (Andreae, 2005). According to the study's lead author, \"'If our model is right, things could become totally uncontrollable in the second half of the century.'\" Andreae's model, using relatively conservative input values, indicates that global temperatures could increase by 6° to 10°C (10.8° to 18°F) by the century's end (Schiermeier, 2005). That is even higher than the IPCC's highest estimate of 6.4°C (11.5°F: IPCC, 2007).\n|Warming of oceans||Deeper ocean to take about 1000 years to begin to warm||Levitus, 2000, found that the North Atlantic's\ntemperature, averaged down to 3 km (about 2 miles), has increased\n0.06°C, or about a tenth of a degree F, in 40 years. Similar\nwarming has occurred in all oceans. Fukasawa, 2004, found a tiny\nbut measurable temperature increase in deep waters (5 km/3 miles)\nin the North Pacific over a period of 14 years. At such depths,\nthere should have been no warming at all.\nFinally, a slowing of global thermohaline circulation (such as contemplated by Broecker, 2001) could allow much faster warming in the North Atlantic and perhaps elsewhere.\n|Warming of sediments to hydrate release depth||Thousands of years, based on the former understanding\nof the BSR\n(Harvey and Huang, 1995, and Berner, 2002) Much faster, based on the new understanding of the BSR (Wood, 2002).\n|Pecher, 2002, suggests that heat from a warmed ocean could penetrate the 15 meters of sediment to reach the topmost methane hydrates in as little as 55 years. With much methane hydrate already at critical pressure, methane could begin to be released from sediment just as soon as it begins to warm (Hornbach, 2004). Some of the free methane underlying the hydrate, moreover, may be at threshold conditions, ready for release just as soon as the sediment begins to warm (Zühlsdorff and Spieß, 2004).|\nSources, sinks, and feedbacks.\nJust as there are numerous sources of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere -- that produced by the burning of fossil fuels being the major concern bceause it is disturbing the previous natural balance -- there are also what are referred to as carbon sinks. A sink is a way in which carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere. The burial of carbon debris in sediment at the bottom of the ocean, for example, is an extremely important sink, partly because of the amount of carbon which is removed from the carbon cycle, and partly because this removal is for geologically significant periods of time, and therefore is essentially permanent. Trees constitute another sink because they incorporate carbon from carbon dioxide in their trunks, branches, leaves, and roots, but this storage is only temporary because trees eventually die and rot, releasing that carbon. Over time, sinks may become saturated with carbon dioxide, and begin to release it instead of storing it. This change from sink to source is projected to occur with the terrestrial biosphere over the course of the 21st century (Cox, 2000).\nmodeling of climate change does not incorporate feedbacks from\nthe biosphere (the realm of living things), which can enhance\nor reduce global warming. An example of of a biosphere feedback\nwhich could enhance warming is faster metabolism by soil microbes,\nwhich would force more carbon dioxide and methane into the atmosphere,\nincreasing greenhouse gas warming. Such a feedback, because it\nadds to the initial effect, is referred to as a positive feedback.\nOn the other hand, at least some plants photosynthesize faster in warmer conditions, thus drawing down atmospheric carbon dioxide, at least as long as those plants are alive. This is an example of a negative feedback, because the initial warming, in this feedback, reduces greenhouse gas and thus helps cool the atmosphere.\nThe reason that most modeling fails to include biosphere feedbacks is that the models are enormously complicated even without incorporating such feedbacks, despite the recognition that they could have important effects on projected outcomes. In addition, the actual effects of many presumed biosphere feedbacks are only beginning to be understood, and introducing them into models increases uncertainty.\n|Some of the most important possible feedbacks are from increased photosynthesis by land plants, and from the changes in the carbon dioxide uptake of soils as a consequence of global warming. Although it was once believed that increased warmth would result in a greater uptake of carbon dioxide, it now appears that this uptake will be much less than previously projected (Cox, 2000; Sarmiento, 2000). The oceans are also likely to absorb less carbon dioxide than had been thought (Cox, 2000; Sarmiento, 2000). In other words, the oceanic and terrestrial biosphere sinks are likely to prove considerably less effective than had been assumed. This means that as atmospheric carbon dioxide increases, more will remain in the atmosphere. This extra carbon dioxide may result in an additional 2.5°C (4.5°F) greater global warming over land than projected by most climate change models (Cox, 2000; Sarmiento, 2000).|\nThe foreseeable effects of a methane catastrophe -- an anoxic deep ocean, an acidic ocean, stunning global warming, desertification, increasingly acidified precipitation, and stronger precipitation events -- will be sufficient to inflict a colossal blow to the global environment, driving countless species to extinction and rendering the conditions of human life immeasurably more difficult. Unfortunately, there may be even worse consequences.\nAs global warming proceeds, thermohaline circulation will slow and the world ocean will become increasingly stratified. That is, the deeper ocean (below about 100 meters/yards), with its nutrients, will become increasingly more isolated and less interactive with the surface ocean, with its phytoplankton. In oceanographers' terms, the ocean will become less mixed. This will happen as a result of the warming of the polar regions, which will see a much greater temperature increase than the rest of the planet. (As Alaskans know, this is already happening.)\nAccording to some newspaper reports and scientific projections, the \"Northwest Passage,\" an ice-free marine route around northern North America from the Atlantic to the Pacific, may be open in just a few decades. The Northwest Passage achieved its fame in the sixteenth and again in the nineteenth centuries, when it was vainly (and sometimes fatally) sought after by several seafaring expeditions. The problem, we now fully recognize, was that this route through Arctic waters was blocked by sea ice. With global warming, however, Arctic sea ice will melt, and the Arctic will become largely ice-free for much or eventually all of the year.\nThe often gushingly enthusiastic projections of a much shorter maritime route between Europe and the Far East, however, ignore another consequence of the disappearance of the sea ice. When seawater freezes, seawater salt is left behind: the ice is entirely composed of fresh water. The remaining seawater is consequently more saline, and more dense. With global warming, as sea ice production slows or ceases, this \"saltwater fractionation engine\" also slows or stops.\nIf no sea ice is produced, highly saline water cannot be produced. This dense and frigid water, which today carries oxygen to the ocean floor and drives global thermohaline circulation, will cease to be. Its cessation will be the predominant one of the many causes of the oceanic stratification and anoxia that is to come.\nAs the deep ocean becomes increasingly dysoxic and then anoxic, the aerobic organisms which currently inhabit it will be replaced by anaerobic microbes, mostly sulfate-reducers. And, as in today's Black Sea, they will pump out hydrogen sulfide as a waste product. The deep ocean will become toxic as hydrogen sulfide attacks all available iron (that dissolved in the ocean, and that in living things) and sends it to the bottom as iron pyrite.\nSome hydrogen sulfide will undoubtedly escape its confinement in the deep ocean and wreak havoc on neighboring coasts at least locally (as it does along today's Namibian coast) and perhaps regionally. But will it escape in sufficient quantities that it will produce a globally toxic atmosphere, as has been suggested for the end-Permian (Grice, 2005; Kump, 2005)? That depends on the efficiency of green and other sulfur bacteria.\nAs previously noted, green sulfur bacteria are anaerobic and anoxygenic (not using or producing oxygen) photosynthesizers that live at the boundary between the oxic shallow waters of today's Black Sea and its deeper anoxic waters. They consume most of the hydrogen sulfide produced below. As anoxia encroaches on shallower ocean depths, however, and allows the green sulfur bacteria (and their cousins, the purple sulfur bacteria) to rise higher in the water column, their activity presumably becomes more efficient: there's more light available as an energy source. That means that they (as well as their more distant cousins, the large sulfur bacteria, which do not require sunlight) ought to be able to consume more hydrogen sulfide. Other things being equal, therefore, the efficiency of the sulfur bacterial \"lid\" (on the hydrogen sulfide) ought to increase as anoxia reaches shallower depths. But other things are not equal.\nAt increasingly shallow depths, regrettably, ocean turbulence is greater, and the likelihood that this lid will be disrupted is similarly greater. And global warming is projected to increase the occurrence of extreme weather events, which churn the ocean surface. The closer the probably imperfect sulfur bacterial lid is to the surface, moreover, the shorter the distance though which the hydrogen sulfide must pass to make its escape into the atmosphere. In any case, the ultimate ability of the sulfur bacterial lid to contain the hydrogen sulfide in the deep is unknown. There is a distinct possibility, therefore, that large quantities of hydrogen sulfide could indeed breach containment, and deliver an additional, terrible blow to an already reeling biosphere. Thus,\n(could lead to)\n(could lead to)\nin the following fashion:\nThere is a second worst case scenario. Deep ocean anoxia -- that is, anoxia extending as high as to within 100 meters (yards) of the ocean surface -- will also kill off the giant larvaceans (remember them?) which live at depths from 100 to 500 meters. The demise of the giant larvaceans will mean that the carbon rain they snag and deliver rapidly to seafloor will take many times longer to make that trip, increasing its chances of being decomposed along the way.\nWere the demise of the giant larvaceans the only consequence of the changed oceanic conditions in a warmer world, it would eventually result in a serious depletion of atmospheric oxygen, as less carbon would be removed from the global carbon cycle. But in an anoxic ocean, decomposition will take place by anaerobes instead of aerobes. This decomposition is much less efficient, so much more carbon will make its way to the seafloor. Over time, this additional carbon burial should increase the level of atmospheric oxygen.\nBut there will also be unpredictable\nchanges in total carbon rain from near the ocean surface, where\nmost of it originates. On one hand, the carbon dioxide content\nof the ocean surface will be increasing, potentially allowing\nfor an increase in phytoplankton activity, as well as an increase\nin the zooplankton which consume it. On the other hand, phytoplankton\nblooms are likely to be reduced by nutrient deprivation, brought\non by the limited water column mixing that will accompany a stratified\nocean. In addition, the coccolithophores, as noted previously,\nare likely to be hard hit by increasing ocean acidity, which will\ndissolve their skeletons. Coccoliths constitute a significant\nportion of the phytoplankton. The less phytoplankton, the less\noxygen being released into the atmosphere. In addition, the less\nphytoplankton, the less carbon rain, and the less carbon being\nremoved from the global carbon cycle.\nThe interaction of the disturbance of these various oxygen-carbon cycle components is difficult, perhaps impossible, to predict. Nonetheless, the potential for major, long-term changes to the composition of the atmosphere is certain. On balance, it seems more likely that oxygen levels may decline, especially with the increased concentration of methane and possibly hydrogen sulfide in the atmosphere. Creatures that require oxygen levels close to the present 21% -- like us -- would be hard-pressed to survive, because such a high level would not exist anywhere on the planet. If oxygen levels do rise -- a scenario that carries its own health risks, such as increased cancer -- people would be able to migrate to higher elevations, at which oxygen levels would be less. But there's less room up there as well, and a lot less agricultural land. In neither case is the future stability of the oxygen level assured: there could be great and even erratic departures from any general trends as marine biology and chemistry shifts.\nThere is even a third worst case scenario. Just as methane and hydrogen sulfide may have worked together at the end of the Permian to destroy stratospheric ozone, the same could happen in our future. Thus,\n(could lead to)\nWith refrigeration gases having punched two polar holes in the ozone layer, we already have a leg up on this final scenario.\nThese worst case scenarios -- a hydrogen\nsulfide catastrophe, unpredictable changes in the atmospheric\noxygen level, and the destruction of the ozone layer -- are not\nmutually exclusive, it should be noted. The first two arise from\nocean warming and anoxia, and the third follows from the gases\nthat are released as a consequence. As oceanic stratification\nand global warming proceed, all scenarios are possible, and, if\nanoxia takes does hold of the deep ocean, all may be inevitable.\nA DEPLETED EXISTENCE\nDuring a methane catastrophe (there seems no point in trying to describe an aftermath that lies thousands of years in the future), human beings will face a depleted existence. Global warming is currently projected to kill off, or \"commit to extinction,\" between 15 and 37% of presently-existing species in just 50 years (Thomas, 2004); far more will be driven to extinction by the end of the century, and in the centuries following. Global warming (and its accompanying effects of acid rain, an acidic and largely anoxic ocean, and so on) will not be the only cause of the extinction of species: increasing encroachment by the rapidly growing human population on the habitats of other organisms, the unceasing exploitation of limited organic resources (as trees, fish) and the conversion of the planet solely to suit our own needs will also take their substantial toll. In addition to the extinction of other species, we will also face the destruction of our own global economy.\nThere are at least three outstanding\nexamples of what happens when people ignore the limitations imposed\nby climate, or when they simply become the victims of natural\nAt one time, the Mayan regions of Central America (predominantly in Guatemala and Mexico's Yucatan) hosted a population of from three to thirteen million. This was at the height of the Classical Maya, about 750 CE. The Maya, who had begun to construct cities about 150 CE, apparently suffered one setback about 250 CE, when they abandoned these cities, perhaps as a consequence of drought. But thereafter the Maya flourished, until the beginning of the ninth century. Within about one hundred and fifty years, first in more southern and central regions and later in the north, Mayan civilization fell into sharp decline, and its cities were abandoned (Haug, 2003).\nThe probable cause was a series of droughts, the first short episode occurring about 760 CE. Then, as the area became generally somewhat drier, three catastrophic multi-year episodes of drought seem to have happened, centered about 810, 860, and 910 CE. Interestingly, this timing seems to coincide with periods of intense cold in Scandinavia, possibly indicating a global rather than regional change in climate. The timing of the droughts also seems to coincide with a three-stage pattern of the abandonment of Mayan cities, though this suggestion apparently is controversial. Nonetheless, the episodes of drought likely gave rise to the cultural upheavals that characterized the Terminal Classical Period, and the final Mayan collapse (Hodell, 1995; Gill, 2000; and Hodell, 2001, as confirmed by Haug, 2003).\nAt its peak, Mayan civilization was presumably able to address the economic needs of its population. But that population, because of the very success of its economic and political system, probably had reached the limit of the ability of the Central American region's to provide for Mayan needs, particularly for food. The food supply depended on the availability of water, and an assortment of cenotes (natural pools in limestone), reservoirs, and water conservation strategies were employed to supplement the highly seasonal rainfall. When climatic conditions began to decline, however, the region's ability to support the Mayan population also fell, and during the times of multi-year drought, Mayans would have starved.\nThe Mayans had reached the carrying capacity\nof their environment; then, when conditions became decidedly less\nfavorable, that carrying capacity plummeted, and with it went\nMayan civilization. The term 'carrying capacity' is customarily\napplied to rangeland in the case of livestock, and a given ecological\narea in the case of wild animals. But its application seems quite\nappropriate here (it is used by Haug, 2003) in dealing with the\nconsequences of adverse climate change on human cultures. Numerous\nother civilizations -- among them that of the Moche in Peru, the\nAnasazi in the US Southwest, that of Ubar in Oman, and many others\nat the edges of desert regions in Africa and Asia -- may have\nsuffered similar fates. Significant heat or cold, or drought,\ncan abruptly lower the carrying capacity of areas inhabited and\ndeveloped by human beings, with consequences similar to those\nthat happen to other creatures.\nThe history of Iceland provides another glimpse of what a depleted existence could be like. Iceland was settled by the Viking farmers in about 870 CE, and within fifty years, most of the island's birch trees had been chopped down, for fuel, building, and clearing land for farming. The farmers had brought cattle, sheep, horses, goats, and pigs with them, but the goats tore apart the forests and the pigs ripped up the land in their search for food. Within about two hundred years, possibly because they had depleted their own food sources, the goats and pigs had all but disappeared, but the damage they had done remained. The island's trees were almost gone, and the soil, which requires centuries to replenish in the colder parts of the world, was rapidly being eroded away (Ogilvie and McGovern, 2000).\nIn the meantime, the global climate had\nturned colder, and the warm conditions that had allowed the Vikings\nto settle even in Greenland were ending. The Greenland settlements\nwere abandoned, or their inhabitants simply starved, and Icelanders\nwere pushed to the brink. Despite a lack of wood for fishing vessels,\nmany Icelanders were forced to fish to supplement the meager production\nof their farms, which had been devastated by the loss of farm\nanimals during increasingly harsh winters. Both people and natural\nclimate change were therefore responsible for the serious economic\nhardship and even starvation that occurred in the fourteenth through\nthe sixteenth centuries (Ogilvie and McGovern, 2000). Those with\nextensive land and livestock holdings were in a better position\nto survive: \"It is not surprising that these rulers probably\nchose to ignore the early signs of climate change despite its\nlong-term threats to Icelandic society as a whole: then as now,\npolitics and ecology seem to have been closely interconnected\"\n(Ogilvie and McGovern, 2000, p. 390).\nEaster Island (Rapa Nui)\nAnother island may provide an even better indication of what happens when people ignore the constraints their environment imposes. Unlike Iceland, which is a large island located about a thousand kilometers (600 miles or so) from Scandinavia, Easter Island (Rapa Nui) is a tiny patch of land (about 160 square kilometers; 64 square miles) isolated by more than 3000 kilometers of South Pacific ocean from South America, the nearest continent. No ocean-going vessels intentionally made their way to Rapa Nui during most of its existence as an inhabited island (in contrast to Iceland, which was frequented by ships from Scandinavia), and indeed, for hunderds of years, the world never knew or even suspected that Rapa Nui existed. It has been described as \"the world's most isolated scrap of habitable land\" (Diamond, 1995).\nSettled around 1200 CE (Hunt and Lipo, 2006; other scientists place the settlement date at the fifth century CE [Diamond, 1995] or about 900 CE [David Steadman, as cited in Bower, 2006]) by Polynesian seafarers, Rapa Nui, like Iceland, had a fertile volcanic soil. Like Iceland, it possessed a forest, composed, because of its position near the Tropic of Capricorn (23 1/2°S), of subtropical trees, bushes, and shrubs. Its isolation made it a haven and nesting site for numerous species of seabirds, as well as birds like owls, parrots and herons that made Rapa Nui home. Shellfish, fish, and dolphins were abundant locally. The Polynesians themselves also brought chickens (in addition, inadvertently, to rats), and grew sweet potatoes, bananas, sugarcane and the edible taro root (Diamond, 1995).\nOnce the inhabitants of Rapa Nui reached a level of economic stability and success, they were able to devote part of their attention to the construction of the massive stone figures for which the island is famous. Hundreds of these huge, multi-ton statues were erected after being carved out of the rock and hauled long distances (about 10 kilometers, or 6 miles); many hundreds more were abandoned at various stages of completion. The period of figure carving and statue erection seems to have occurred between about 1200 to 1500 CE, just as the island's population was peaking at about 7,000 to possibly as many as 20,000 (Diamond, 1995).\nBut the inhabitants were wreaking environmental destruction on their home. The trees that had been used for construction, fuel, canoes, and even rope were disappearing within several centuries of the Polynesians' arrival. By about 1400, the Easter Island palm, its largest tree and the source of its canoes, was extinct. Dolphins could no longer be hunted: they were too far out at sea. By the end of the fifteenth century, the forest was entirely gone. With the destruction of the native vegetation, the soil was eroded and crop yields declined. Every single species of resident bird was wiped out, and more than half the seabird nesting sites with them. The size of the population fell and social order succumbed to lawlessness and thuggery. Even cannibalism ensued. By about 1700, the population was declining to a mere fraction (1/4th to 1/10th) of what it had been at its peak. When the first Europeans arrived, on Easter of 1722 (giving the island its European name; Rapa Nui is the Polynesian name), they found an impoverished population eking out a subsistence living on a treeless desert island (Diamond, 1995).\nAs Jared Diamond (1995) has put it, \"Easter\nIsland is Earth writ small.\" Our own usually unobtrusive\npace of environmental destruction and climate alteration makes\npeople unaware of -- or, when aware, all too often indifferent\nto, or even contemptuous of -- the potential damage of their activities.\nBut unlike the Easter Islanders, who would not \"have noticed\nthe felling of the last small palm\" (Diamond, 1995), scientists\nhave repeatedly warned that catastrophe awaits us unless we act\nnow to curtail the reckless exploitation of our planet.\n[Note: Since this section was written in 2004, Jared Diamond's book, Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed, has been published. The book has received excellent reviews in both Science and Nature. Though I have not yet had time to read it myself, I have enough familiarity with Diamond's work that I feel comfortable in highly recommending his book to the reader.]\nThe crust of the Earth has been compared to the skin on the top of a pudding, and ourselves to microbes that live on the skin's surface. Just as the microbes go about their business undisturbed by the nature of the skin and the pudding, so we also live on the Earth, taking it for granted, and largely unaware of its existence.\nBelow us, and around us, the Earth is in ceaseless motion. For the most part this motion occurs with extraordinary slowness, as the great plates of continents and oceans move about the planet's surface and jostle each other at the rate that fingernails grow. Only when earthquakes smash our buildings and other constructs, or volcanoes cover cities with ash (as Mount St. Helens did with Yakima, Washington, in its 1980 eruption), or floods drown cities, towns and farms (California, North Dakota, Danubian Europe, Germany) as in the late 20th century and early 21st, do we pay attention, at least for a bit. But these events typically do not affect us; usually they happen to others far away, intruding into our consciousness only by way of the morning newspaper or the evening television news.\nBeneath our feet, however, and around\nus and overhead, the Earth goes about its own business, in as\nmuch ignorance and disregard for us as we have for it. But if\nwe continue to abuse it, and in particular, if we continue to\nuse the atmosphere as a sewer (as Stephen Schneider has put it),\nthe Earth will suddenly and appallingly rise up against us, and\nwe will pay a terrible, deadly price.\nCONTINUE TO NEXT SECTION (PART II, Continued: Can science save us?)\nRETURN TO CONTENTS","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Current natural and man-made sources include many where methane-producing micro-organisms can thrive in anaerobic conditions, particularly ruminant livestock, rice cultivation, landfill, wastewater, wetlands and marine sediments. This timely and authoritative book provides the only comprehensive and balanced overview of our current knowledge of sources of methane and how these might be controlled to limit future climate change. It describes how methane is derived from the anaerobic metabolism of micro-organisms, whether in wetlands or rice fields, manure, landfill or wastewater, or the digestive systems of cattle and other ruminant animals. It highlights how sources of methane might themselves be affected by climate change. It is shown how numerous point sources of methane have the potential to be more easily addressed than sources of carbon dioxide and therefore contribute significantly to climate change mitigation in the 21st century.\"--Publisher's description.\n- 9781844078233 (hbk.)\n- Bibliography Note:\n- Includes bibliographical references and index.\nView MARC record | catkey: 28335041","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The surging Meramec was expected to crest at a record 40 feet on Saturday – 24 feet above flood stage.\nMissouri Public Safety said the levee was in good shape, but some residents decided to leave for higher ground just in case.\n“The biggest thing is not knowing what to expect,” said Donna Gerstein-Russell, who moved to the area in January.\nForecasters said the snowstorm could leave as much as 11 inches of heavy snow in the region. Ten inches had fallen Friday in Red Wing, Minn.\nIn northern Illinois, snow canceled about 400 flights and delayed numerous others at Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. Across town, at Midway Airport, about 15 flights have been canceled. Delays for some flights range from 15 to 90 minutes.\nNorthern Ohio residents prepared for an expected 3 to 6 inches of snow, while flood victims in the southern parts of the state began the arduous task of cleaning up after some of the heaviest rain in years.\nA blizzard warning remained in effect in northern Maine, where fierce winds scattered snow, uprooted trees and brought down power lines.\n“Even though it was spring yesterday, we still have winter on our doorstep,” spokeswoman Ginny Joles of Maine Public Service Co., northern Maine’s major electric company, said Friday.\nParts of the Midwest got a foot of rain over a 36-hour period this week, causing widespread flash flooding. The worst flooding happened in smaller rivers across the nation’s midsection. Major channels such as the Mississippi, Missouri and Ohio rivers saw only minor flooding.\nIn Arkansas, residents of the tiny prairie community of Georgetown along the White River were warned to leave the area Friday after forecasters said a backwater slough would cut off access by late evening and leave them stranded well into next week.\n“Stock up or get out. You may be there a few days,” said Steve Bays, a hydrologist with the National Weather Service at North Little Rock.\nGeorgetown Fire Chief Eddie Stephenson said about half of the town’s 126 residents were getting out, but played down any danger.\n“I’ve been here all my life.

About 70 state roads were closed or partly blocked by flooding; crews were trying to pump water off a major route into Columbus, according to the State Highway Patrol.\nGovernment forecasters warned that some flooding could continue in the coming days because of record rainfall and melting snow packs across much of the Midwest and Northeast.\nAt least 16 deaths have been linked to the weather over the past few days, and at least two people whose vehicles were swept away by rushing water Tuesday were still missing in Arkansas.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Jangmi is known locally in the Philippines as Tropical Storm Seniang.\nMany warnings remain in effect as Jangmi continues moving west toward the South China Sea. On Dec. 29, public storm warning signal #1 is in effect in the Visayas provinces of Leyte, Southern Leyte, Camotes Island, rest of Cebu, rest of Negros Occidental, Guimaras, southern part of Iloilo and southern part of Antique.

It is also in effect in the Mindanao provinces of Surigao del Norte, Siargao Island, Agusan del Norte, Misamis Oriental, Camiguin, and the Dinagat Province.\nTropical Storm Jangmi made landfall in northeastern Mindanao, Philippines on Dec. 28 and has moved across the central part of the country. NASA's Aqua satellite passed over Jangmi on Dec. 29 at 05:05 UTC (12:05 a.m. EST) and saw that the storm was over the Visayas (central) and Mindanao (southern) regions of the country. Bands of thunderstorms wrapped into the center from the northeastern and southeastern quadrants stretching back over the Philippine Sea (east of the country).\nOn Dec. 29 at 1500 UTC (10 a.m. EST), Jangmi had maximum sustained winds near 40 knots. It was moving to the northwest at 9 knots. Jangmi was centered near 10.0 north latitude and 124.2 east longitude, about 352 nautical miles southeast of Manila.\nThe Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) looked at animated enhanced infrared satellite imagery and a radar animation from Cebu Station, Philippines that showed Jangmi intensified as it tracked across the Surigao Strait. The low level circulation had become more tightly wrapped and better defined despite a weakening in the bands of thunderstorms as the system made landfall across Bohol Island.\nJTWC's forecast on Dec. 29 calls for Jangmi to move in a west-southwesterly direction through the Sulu Sea and over southern Palawan before moving into the South China Sea while maintaining strength as a tropical storm.

Numerous businesses were damaged and remain shuttered, and parts of Main Street are still closed to drivers nearly two months after the flood.\nEarlier this month, county officials fully reopened Main Street to pedestrian traffic as local business owners and contractors continued repairing storefronts and shoring up buildings.\nKittleman said he didn’t expect the two-day downpour to set back rebuilding efforts all that much.\n“I don’t think it’s going to be a long-term issue … It’s not going to be that much of a hindrance,” he said. “Hopefully, it’ll be gone by Friday.\nGet the latest weather updates on WTOP.com’s weather page.\nWTOP’s Dick Uliano contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

More info can be found by clicking here.\nToday we are expecting 2-4″ of new snow above 1000’, with an addtional 3-6″ arriving later today and into this evening. This morning ridgetop winds have picked up to 15-25mph from the East and are expected to remain moderate throughout the day. This could be just enough wind and new snow to form tender wind slabs (4-10”) in upper elevations above 2500′.\nThese wind slabs could be easily triggered on steep features (>35°) like convexities, along gullies, or just below a steep ridgeline. Pay attention to leeward slopes that are loading and make a note of how much snow is falling throughout the day.\nOver the last few days’ cold temperatures have been weakening the surface snow by creating near surface facets. 2-6″ of poorly bonded snow crystals are sitting on top of a firm bed surface (a dense wind slab at elevations above 3000’ and a melt/freeze crust at lower elevations.) This set up is less than ideal as we go into a storm cycle – depending on how the storm arrives this could be our next weak layer to track in the coming days.\nMany cornices have formed along ridgelines in the alpine throughout Turnagain Pass and Girdwood. These large unsupported snow formations are difficult to see sometimes or until you’re too close for comfort. Be aware of areas that have well formed cornices and give them extra space if you plan to travel along a ridgeline.\nWe have been continuing to monitor glide activity over the last week, with the most recent glide avalanche occurring several days ago on the South Face of Eddies. Glide cracks are unpredictable and it can be challenging to understand the exact nature of what triggers a glide to release. It is best to avoid traveling under or on slopes with large crevasse looking cracks.\nYesterday skies were clear, winds were light, 5-10mph, shifting from the East to the West throughout the day. Valley fog kept temperatures in the single digits (6-10F) at lower elevations with ridgetops reaching low 20’s F.\nAs of early this morning ridgetop winds have picked up to 15-25mph from the East and temperatures have also started to increase at upper elevations (low 20’sF.) No new precipitation was recorded in the last 24 hours.\nToday 2-4 € inches of snow is expected this afternoon with an additional 3-6 € into the evening. Ridgetop winds are expected to remain moderate (15-20mph) throughout the day with temperatures steadily increasing to 30F.\nMore snow, up to 6 € is forecasted for Friday.

The Perseids, peaking in mid-August, have become one of the quintessential meteor showers. If you like such events, then you’re in luck because tonight you have not one but two showers peaking.\nThe first one is known as the Southern Delta Aquarids, a shower created by the remains of two comets, both of which passed close to the Sun a long time ago. These Sun-grazing comets left behind a band of dust and, when the Earth now passes through it, we see the meteors rain down. If you decide to stargaze, you can expect 15 to 20 meteors every hour.\nThe shower happens between mid-July and mid-August, peaking in late-July. They seem to radiate from the star Skat, also known as Delta Aquarii, the third-brightest star in the constellation of the water bearer. The evolution of this stream is strongly influenced by the planet Jupiter.\nPeople in the Southern Hemisphere tend to get a better view of this shower as it’s higher in the sky. The best time to watch them is just before dawn. If you are in the Northern Hemisphere, you should look towards the Southern horizon, where they will be fanning out in all directions.\nThe second shower is not as impressive as the first one. The Alpha Capricornids occur during a similar range in dates, from July 15 to August 10, but at a much lower rate, up to five per hour and rarely up to nine. The reason for the lower rate has to do with the position of the stream – the Earth is nowhere near its center.\nThe dust was left by comet 169P/NEAT when about half of its main body broke down a few thousand years ago. The stream has been evolving and moving ever since. Astronomers believe that the denser part of the dust stream will cross Earth’s orbit in about 200 to 400 years. At that point, Alpha Capricornids will be the more intense annual shower.\nTonight is also the new Moon, so without the reflected light of our natural satellite, it should be possible to spot even faint streaks across the sky. If the weather doesn’t help, don’t worry: you only have to wait a few weeks before the peak of the Perseids.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Around 2000 emergency personnel were working around the clock to remove fallen trees and repair overhead lines, it added.\nDeutsche Bahn is also expecting delays in rail freight traffic over the next few days. Many routes are still closed, on the sections that are already passable again, there is a backlog, it said. The Berlin local traffic with S-Bahn, U-Bahn, streetcar, and buses, however, had largely returned to normal on Sunday.\nAfter a rainy and windy Sunday, storm low \"Antonia\" is expected to bring gusts with wind speeds between 65 and 90 kilometers per hour starting late this evening, a spokeswoman for the German Weather Service (DWD) said Sunday. Accordingly, thunderstorms are to be expected during the night, which at times could also cause severe squalls with speeds of up to 100 kilometers per hour.\nMonday morning will also be stormy at first until the wind is expected to subside in the afternoon. Isolated thunderstorms and sleet showers will then set the tone for the weather in the coming week, according to Sunday's information: it will remain changeable and windy with peak temperatures between six and nine degrees.\nImage by Markus Christ","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The meteor shower will be seen at 1:30 a.m. on May 5 and May 6.\nThe Eta Aquarids meteor shower will be best seen under a moonless sky at night in the countryside away from light pollution but city-dwellers can still catch a glimpse of this annual event. Viewers can expect up to 30 meteors an hour, which would start around 10 p.m., passing through the northeast skies.\nDuring peak activity, watchers 26 degrees north latitude can see about 12 Eta Aquarid meteors if the weather conditions permit. These meteors travel at speeds of up to 148,000 miles per hour or 238 kilometres per hour. Fast meteors can be seen leaving bright trains or pieces of debris that can last for a few seconds or minutes.\nEta Aquarids are actually debris from Halley’s comet, which was last seen in 1986. The famous short-period comet is only visible every 75 years and scientists say it won’t return until 2062.\nScientists sent a spacecraft for the first time in 1986 to observe the comet up close. Luckily, Halley’s comet approached the opposite side of the sun from the Earth, which made it look like a faint object about 39 million miles or 62.7 kilometres away from Earth.\nHalley’s comet is named after Edmond Halley, an English astronomer who observed the comet back in 1531, 1607 and 1682. Initially, these were thought as three different comets passing the Earth during these dates but Halley concluded that these three were actually just one comet that keeps coming back. The English astronomer correctly predicted that the comet would be visible again in 1758.\nEta Aquarids are not the only remnants of Halley’s Comet every year. The Orionid meteor shower is also produced by the comet’s fragments, which usually happens in October every year.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This will be an exciting new way to communicate with communities across our viewing area when nasty weather moves in.\nWhy create this group of storm spotters?\nDuring severe weather events it is important to get as many high quality reports as we can. That means accurate accounts of what you are seeing/have seen and pictures from what mother nature is doing where you are. In short, you will be a trained group of weather information sharers. If you are looking to join to have the 'biggest' or 'worst' report every storm, this isn't the group for you.\nHow do you sign up?\nSend an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.org to express your interest. Include what city you live and if you've ever been a storm spotter for the National Weather Service. We will reply with more information and how you can start reporting!\nAre there any requirements?\nYes! But not many.\n1) You need to be active on Facebook or Twitter. That is, after all, how we will gather information.\n2) A basic amount of storm knowledge will be required, such as cloud and severe weather structure. If you have never taken a class on storms before we will help with an online class and web chats!\n3) Safety. We are not asking you to be a storm chaser or put yourself in danger. We simply are looking for storm reports and pictures when it can be done safely.\nWe are excited you want to be part of our team during severe weather. Again, this will be a great tool for helping warn others in the path of storms. But don't think this is just about us getting reports from you -- Our team of meteorologist will host video chats regarding severe weather events in which you may be invited in to speak, your pictures will be more likely to be used on-air and know your helping others that may be in the path of a storm.

The weather bureau said a flood watch is current for eastern Victoria for minor to moderate flooding likely from late Tuesday into Wednesday.\n\"The most significant rainfall totals are expected for Gippsland, where totals may exceed 150 mm in some places,\" said the BOM.\nIn the island state of Tasmania, a fire originated from a hotspot in Boat Harbour Creek in Flinders Island and moved rapidly to the east under strong wind on Sunday afternoon, which later sparked an emergency warning for local communities with waterbombing aircraft deployed to contain the flame.\nThe bushfire warning on Tuesday was downgraded to the \"advice\" level, given that there is no immediate threat. However, the fire has not been fully under control, and emergency services reminded people to keep up to date with the changeable conditions. ■","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The bright dancing lights of the aurora are actually collisions between electrically charged particles from the sun that enter the earth's atmosphere. The lights are seen above the magnetic poles of the northern and southern hemispheres.Alexander Semyonov\nUltimately, like the weather, the Northern Lights are difficult to predict. Though estimations can be made and usually a day or two before occurring, predictions can be reasonably accurate. There are several important factors to consider, which all help to form the right conditions to see the Aurora Lights.Alexander Semyonov\nWhen the sun is directly over the equator, the Lights will appear the strongest. This is on or around March 20th and September 23th every year, though these are not the only days when it’s in the sky, just the peak of the Aurora season (when they’re most visible).Alexander Semyonov\nFrom February to April and August to October the Aurora are most viewable and even spill outside of those months if the conditions are right.Alexander Semyonov\nThe best time to view the Aurora is when the sky is at its clearest. So during the New Moon, when the moon is least visible, there’s less light, making the sky as dark as possible.Alexander Semyonov\nAll these shots were taken by a marine biologist Alexander Semyonov, who lives and works at the White Sea Biological Station.Alexander Semyonov\nThe Kola Peninsula is right in the Northern Lights’ belt, close to northern Scandinavia, making it a perfect spot for watching. The city of Murmansk is popular with sky watching tourists.Alexander Semyonov\nBut surely it's not the only place in Russia to admire the sightseeing Northern Lights.Alexander Semyonov\nSeverodvinsk attracts travelers with some of the brightest northern lights in all of western Russia. Located near Arkhangelsk, it provides more opportunities to study this natural phenomenon than the region capital.Alexander Semyonov\nThe best time to visit the Nenets Autonomous District (with the capital Naryan-Mar) to see the northern lights and to listen to the authentic myths and legends of the vanished city Pustozersk is in the early fall.Alexander Semyonov\nNine miles away from Magadan the color of the sky changes dramatically – the entire sky lights up with a grass-green glow that is reflected in the snowdrifts.Alexander Semyonov\nSalekhard is the only city in the world that is located on the Arctic Circle and eventually it is famous for the Northern Lights.Alexander Semyonov\nTixi, Khatanga, Dixon, Dudinka, Igarka, Novaya Zemlya and Wrangel Island are also suitable for those who desire to see the Northern Lights in Russia.Alexander Semyonov\nAll rights reserved by Rossiyskaya Gazeta.\nto our newsletter!\nGet the week's best stories straight to your inbox","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Then last Wednesday, the skies darkened in every direction and it rained hard for a solid 15 minutes in central Todos Santos but in Las Tunas, nary a drop. The rains have been very localized. On Friday it rained again, hitting all of Todos Santos and then today, Sunday, Aug 30, it rained for 45 minutes, the better part of it very heavily. Enough to make puddles and new drainage channels. We should see the ants soon.\nHurricane Jimena is taking a direct path towards Baja California Sur and Todos Santos. She is an enormously powerful storm, currently category 4 with sustained winds of nearly 140 mph and gusts even higher. The ocean water is unusually warm, about 1.5 degrees F higher than normal, so this storm will not weaken as it approaches us.

Maybe it’s because I live in Florida. In this part of the country we know what kind of damage just about any storm can do, whether it has a name or not. In fact, the \"no-name\" storm that struck Florida's Gulf Coast in 1993 damaged or destroyed 18,000 homes and caused more than $500 million in property damage, more than double that of Hurricane Elena in 1985. Statewide, it killed at least 26 people, more than Hurricane Andrew, according to the Tampa Bay Times.\nLast year, you might recall, the weather experts forecast an \"extremely active\" Atlantic hurricane season. The folks at Home Depot and Lowe’s must have been delighted. And the analysts tracking crude oil futures fervently watched The Weather Channel for any probable paths their spaghetti models might reveal. To the experts’ apparent embarrassment, the gods delivered the quietest hurricane season that anyone had seen in 50 years.\nAnd now, after one of the quietest hurricane seasons in decades, forecasters with The Weather Channel predict a below-average 2014 Atlantic hurricane season. Their early outlook calls for 11 named storms, including five hurricanes, two of which are predicted to attain major hurricane status. This is slightly below the long-term average of 12 named storms, six hurricanes and three major hurricanes.\n\"The early dynamical model runs suggest another relatively slow season,\" said Dr. Todd Crawford, chief meteorologist for Weather Services International, a part of The Weather Company. \"Three independent statistical techniques all suggest 11 named storms this year.\"\nEspecially when the experts tell me not to, I worry. Earlier this week, we at GasBuddy.com reported with a bit of understatement that gasoline prices for the latter part of the summer driving season will be tied to the 2014 hurricane season. This is the time of year we look closely at the concentration of U.S. refining capacity that is so vulnerable in the Gulf of Mexico.\nIt’s the reason why federal officials, policy wonks and oil experts agree on the need – in addition to the Strategic Petroleum Reserve – for reserves of finished gasoline in places other than the Gulf. Hurricane Sandy demonstrated that need in the Northeast too.\nWhile there’s no doubt that the U.S. has added plenty of refining capacity in just the past 20 years, most of the additional capacity lies between Corpus Christi, Texas, and Pascagoula, Mississippi. An active storm system could inspire precautionary shutdowns that would inevitably tighten supplies through the broad span of the U.S. that is supplied by Gulf Coast refiners. In turn, refinery shutdowns could resonate loudly through several dozen states.\nHow vulnerability is our Gulf Coast refining? I hope we never see.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

I agree China bears responsibility, but the case to negotiate with China would be so much stronger if the action at home was strong,\" he said in an interview with The Korea Herald at the GGGI headquarters in central Seoul.\nSouth Korea has been grappling with massive air pollution especially from winter to spring. It ranks bottom in air quality among 35 member states of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.\nThe Korean government estimates up to 80 percent of PM2.5 ultrafine dust -- the airborne particles of diameter less than 2.5 micrometers -- in Korea flows here from China when concentrations of PM2.5 are heavy. China denies this.\nWhile it is true China significantly contributes to air pollution here, the neighboring country took “drastic measures” to cut levels of the toxic pollutants, he pointed out, by closing down coal-fired plants and adopting more electric buses. China slashed its levels by almost a third on average over four years, according to a study.\nThe Korean government takes \"emergency reduction measures\" -- such as banning old diesel cars from streets -- to cut emissions produced domestically. It also has conducted artificial rain experiments and is seeking to install large air purifiers in cities.\nBut the measures are only \"first baby steps\" and \"not enough,\" and there are no “magical solutions,” the Dutch director-general noted, other than rapidly reforming industry heavily reliant on coal and nuclear power.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Forecasters today said summer 2010 will be a month longer than usual\nPositive Weather Solutions, the forecasting company who managed to correctly predict that last summer would be a wash-out, is confident that we're finally in for a sizzling summer.\nThe forecasters expect summer to last almost four months, before finally fading in mid-September rather than late August.\nPWS, which bases forecasts on weather patterns, long-term temperature cycles and 30 years of statistics, predicts record-breaking temperatures topping 38.5C this summer.\nSenior forecaster Jonathan Powell said: 'Temperatures will climb steadily from 16C on Monday to 22C on Wednesday.\n'In the south, things will warm up nicely from then on with temperatures of 25C later in the week - and 23C in the Midlands.\n'Around 20C to 21C is possible in the north, with decent spells of dry and bright weather.\n'This is summer’s first salvo and we expect high pressure to anchor down.\n'That means that after this week’s fine weather, the following week will also be dry and warm, pushing 25C in the south before the Bank Holiday.\n'The dry and sunny weather may well stay with us into June.'\nPWS’ conviction that summer 2010 will be a scorcher has been strengthened by recent yo-yo weather extremes.\nWinter’s big freeze lasted into March before 22C temperatures in one of the sunniest Aprils ever recorded were followed by a frosty first half of May with temperatures down to -6C at night.\n'This year has already shown us weather extremes, with the coldest winter for 31 years, then warm temperatures in April and snowfall in May,' said Mr Powell.\n'It’s these sort of peaks and troughs which could give us record temperatures this year. We could well see freak temperatures on the flip side of the coin.\n'There’s a good possibility of summer stretching into September.\n'It looks as if dry and warm spells of weather in mid-to-late August could continue well into September before cooling down.\n'Summer will hang around and, just as winter continued into March.

Like financial accounting, carbon accounting focuses on quantifying, measuring, and reporting data. While financial accounting focuses on economic aspects, carbon accounting concentrates on environmental impact.\nThe visual below depicts the use cases, regulatory agencies, and other components associated with carbon accounting as compared to financial accounting.\nCarbon accounting and, more specifically, the Greenhouse Gas Protocol, establishes emissions scopes that categorize business emissions into direct (scope 1) and indirect (scope 2 and 3) emissions.\nScope 1 emissions encompass the direct release of greenhouse gases (GHGs) originating from sources that an organization controls or owns, such as emissions produced by fuel combustion in vehicles, boilers, or furnaces. On the other hand, scope 2 emissions refer to indirect GHG emissions that arise from the procurement of electricity, steam, heat, or cooling.\nWhile scope 2 emissions physically take place at the facility generating them, they are included in the purchasing organization's GHG inventory as they stem from the organization's energy consumption.\nScope 3 emissions encompass a category of GHG emissions that arise from activities associated with an organization but are not directly owned or controlled by it. These emissions result from various sources, including supply chain operations, transportation, product usage, and disposal. Scope 3 emissions are by far the most significant emission source on average for most industries, so generally are the most crucial to reduce. Many of the reporting standards & target-approving organizations (i.e., SBTi) also have rules about what has to be included in targets & reporting based on materiality. So, for example, if 95% of your emissions come from scope 3 & you've committed to a target that includes your scope 3 emissions, they may have to address some of that hard-to-measure, hard-to-decarbonize scope 3 sources. Scope 3 emissions, referred to as value chain emissions, are by far the most massive category of emissions and also by far the most difficult to decarbonize since organizations lack direct control over them.\nLater, in Lesson 4, we will cover how emissions are calculated and how software like Persefoni can be leveraged to automate the calculation process.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It is often used for mobile hot-spot monitoring, construction areas, tunnel tests, or in outdoor areas. The fully automatic system EDM 164 convinces satisfied customers around the world with its reliability, its accuracy, its sturdiness, its compact set-up and its durability under various climatic conditions.\nThe EDM 164 detects all airborne particles in a size range from 0.25 µm up to 32 µm in real-time with a particle size distribution in 31 channels. Every single particle is detected in the optical measurement cell and classified into defined particle sizes based on the intensity of the scattering light signal. Only this precise and reliable single particle definition allows an accurate calculation of the dust mass fractions PM10 and PM2.5 as well as PM1. The EDM 164 executes a self-test prior to every start in order to verify readiness for operation and the device status is continuously monitored.\nVia the optional data logger 1142.M5, access to the environmental dust monitor can be granted at any time via the World Wide Web. The measurement data can then be visualized or retrieved in real-time\nFurthermore, the EDM 164 impresses with the low maintenance cost and by not having the need of consumables\nUnique features of Grimm’s product EDM 164 are reliability, flexibility and the high cost efficiency of the devices. This compact device allows you simultaneous measurement of PM10, PM2.5, and PM1 as well as the optional particle size distribution in 31 channels.\nFor the output of measurement data of the Environmental Dust Monitor (EDM) 164, the high-performance software 1178 was developed by Grimm and tops this profile off.\nThe 8 most important performance characteristics of the model EDM 164\n• Built according to measuring standards EN12341, EN14907, US-EPA und GOST-R\n• Output of the measurement data as PM10, PM2.5, PM1, TC (Total Counts) and optionally the particle counts in 31 channels\n• Output of the measurement results in real-time\n• Self-test for verifying the readiness for use at every start\n• Flow and refeeding of the permanent rinsing air for keeping the optical measuring cell clean\n• Mobile stand-alone system\n• Low maintenance and operating costs\n• Modular expandability of the measuring modes\n• 1178 32-bit software\n• 1142.M5 data logger, data transfer to any PC world-wide via GSM, remote control\n• 157L sensor for humidity, temperature and air pressure\n• 158L sensor for humidity, temperature, air pressure, wind direction, wind speed\n• 159L sensor for humidity, temperature, air pressure, wind direction, wind speed and precipitation\n• 160V2 analog output adapter for PM10, PM2.5 and PM1; output 0-10V; range 0-6,000 µg/m3\n• 1142.A4 Data storage card 4 MB\n1142.M5 data logger\nWith the data logger you can retrieve and display your measuring data in real-time via the World Wide Web (GPRS-radio link and Ethernet). The data of the EDM 164 and the connected sensors are simultaneously collected and combined into one data string. Furthermore, the data logger can be used for the remote control of the Grimm dust monitors. The storage capacity of the data logger is 2GB and can be extended to a maximum of 4GB.\nLabView® Software 1.178\nWith the new software 1.178 GRIMM programmed an excellent, user-friendly application software based on LabView®, which is compatible to all 32-/64-bit Windows operating systems from XP and up. PM10, PM2.5 and PM1 values are displayed numerically or graphically. Additionally, values of external climatic sensors and service data can be displayed.\nThe display and output of measuring data takes place in real-time (every 6 seconds) and is therefore suitable not only for data recording and data evaluation, but also for data presentation.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

As of this writing, 12 to 18 inches of snow is predicted for northern New Jersey, 8 to 12 inches in central New Jersey, and 4 to 6 inches in southern New Jersey. When we're dragging out the snow shovels and gassing up the snowblower this week, we must comfort ourselves with the fact that spring begins March 20th, and despite what we may think, we're lucky. Yes, lucky...that this is 2017 and not 1888.\nOn March 11, 1888, the northeast was hit without warning by one of the worst blizzards in American history. After spring-like weather, temperatures plunged overnight; the ensuing storm dumped 55 inches of snow, plunging New York City and surrounding areas into white-out conditions. Wind gusts reached 85 miles per hour; boats sank and street trolleys blew over. Horse-drawn carts were abandoned. Train tracks, telegraph lines, water mains and gas lines, all above ground, froze, as did the East River. Frozen sparrows dropped from the sky; farm animals froze to death. The city came to a standstill; the New York Stock Exchange closed for the three day duration of the storm. Some brave souls attempted to walk to work and died trying. All communication ceased; Atlantic Highlands reported snow drifts twenty feet high, and like other parts of New Jersey, the town was cut off from the rest of the world for three days. Three pilot boats sank in the Horseshoe Cove off Sandy Hook. 400 people died in The Great Blizzard of 1888; some were not found until the snow melted.\nAs you comfortably work from home this Tuesday, be thankful for modern communications and infrastructure. Be glad for the forecasts of meteorologists that keep us prepared for Mother Nature's wrath. And let's hope those meteorologists are wrong this time!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

State hurricane forecasts may end due to lack of funds\n- In June%2C the program lost %24100%2C000 of annual funding from an insurance company.\n- This year%27s forecast%2C which predicted an active hurricane season%2C turned out to dead wrong.\n- William Gray thinks a dislike of his global warming stance has affected his ability to get funding.\nA long-standing hurricane forecast program at Colorado State University lost its funding this summer, and after 30 years faces a serious chance of being shut down for good.\nThe program and its founder, 84-year-old Professor Emeritus William Gray, are CSU institutions in their own right and for the past three decades have issued high-level forecasts for the Atlantic hurricane season. But it has been a rocky fall for the Tropical Meteorology Project, as it is officially called at CSU.\nFirst, in June, the program lost $100,000 of annual funding from an insurance company, said researcher Phil Klotzbach. Then, this year's forecast, which predicted an active hurricane season, turned out to dead wrong.\n\"It was probably our worst forecast in 30 years of doing it,\" Klotzbach said Tuesday.\nAs meteorology research has become more competitive, the program has struggled to find more funding and has been reliant on private industry grants and Gray's own money to keep it afloat. Since 2000, Gray, who has been predicting hurricane seasons since the 1950s, has donated $500,000 to the research.\nThat, Klotzbach said, is not sustainable. The program has been running on $150,000 a year, which covers the salaries of Gray, Klotzbach and a few secretaries, Klotzbach said.\nGray, a well-known critic of human-caused global warming, thinks that a general dislike of his theories has affected the hurricane forecast program's ability to get solid funding, he said Tuesday.\nKlotzbach has mostly taken over the program that Gray used to run, but neither of the men have had much luck getting federal funding. Klotzbach attributes this to a lot of competition, while Gray partly blames his reputation.\n\"It's just a crime that he (Klotzbach) has gone in by himself to get grant money and has been turned down, and I think the turndown has been due to his very close association with me.,\" Gray said.\nKlotzbach declined to identify the insurance sponsor that dropped funding for the research program, but he did say that the decision was \"an internal thing at their company\" involving \"some internal politics at the highest levels.\" Rescinding the sponsorship had nothing to do with this season's poor forecast, Klotzbach added.\nAs they look toward an uncertain future, the researchers have been examining what went wrong with this season's forecast. Although they predicted an active season, there were high levels of dry air in the atmosphere that the researchers didn't anticipate. On top of that, there were no El Nino cycles — warm, wet air over the tropics — that typically make for an active hurricane seasons.\n\"When you don't have El Nino conditions, those large-scale features in the ocean that we thought we would have, we didn't end up with,\" Klotzbach said. \"We are going to be spending a lot of time looking at why that dry air was there,\" and how they can predict that in the future, he added.\nThe forecasters don't predict or track specific storms, but instead look at an overall hurricane season, which typically peaks between August and September. For instance, in 2005, the year Hurricane Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast, the forecasters predicted an active hurricane season. They were right. Last year, when Hurricane Sandy hit the New Jersey and New York coast, the storm was an outlier in a season that generally wasn't very active. The CSU forecasters predicted that, too.\nAs with all aspects of science and research, mistakes do happen.\n\"There are going to be years when there are things about the ocean and the atmosphere that we don't understand,\" Klotzbach said. All the more reason to keep funding hurricane research, he added.\nThe CSU hurricane researchers are some of the only people who study hurricane forecasts full time, although there are other groups that put out seasonal forecasts, Klotzbach said.\nWithout funding, that forecast is effectively gone. But a few options have cropped up, said Klotzbach. The researchers have been talking to insurance companies, private weather companies, and some large media outlets that are interested in the forecast. Klotzbach said the program hopes to land several sponsors who give about $25,000 each.\nGray hopes that more funding will keep the program alive and enable the researchers to study what went wrong with this season's forecast.\n\"I'm afraid that this is gradually going to go away,\" he said. \"We need research to study this.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Ron DeSantis wrote in a tweet Friday. “Hurricane Michael was one of the most devastating storms in Florida and U.S. history.”\nThe update is likely to mean little on the ground beyond confirming what residents had already accepted as fact — that the wind speeds were greater than recorded despite initial Hurricane Center estimates listing the hurricane as a peak Category 4 storm. Forecasters had said previously that Michael's winds reached about 155 mph at landfall; Category 5 on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale begins at 157 mph.\n“They could have called us months ago,” said Mexico Beach Mayor Al Cathey. “We could have saved them some time.”\nWorkers in his small city are still trying to clear out debris, especially from the canal they hope to have ready for the upcoming snapper season.\nThe Hurricane Center report explained that the Category 5 winds probably only touched a small section of the coast. The storm killed 16 people in the United States and caused $25 billion in damage.\nHowever, Category 5 status does not automatically trigger more relief funds for devastated communities, said Federal Emergency Management Agency spokeswoman Cheria Brown.\n“The category of the storm doesn’t change the assistance that the Panhandle is going to get going forward from FEMA,\" she said.\nBay County officials used the Hurricane Center findings Friday to call on Congress to fund a disaster aid package post-Michael — a proposal that has been held up over relief for Puerto Rico, which was decimated two years ago by Hurricane Maria.\n“The federal government has historically provided major disaster funding,” said Bay County Commissioner Robert Carroll in a statement. “We anticipate and expect the same treatment, and we need them to step up and provide some funding and some relief.”\nLeaders in Bay County estimate they sustained hundreds of millions of dollars in damage from the storm.\n“There are abandoned houses everywhere,” Carroll said, and families are sharing space with friends or relatives wherever homes are still livable. “There isn’t a week that goes by I don’t have at least one of my daughters’ friends staying at our house.”\nThe full Hurricane Center report includes other details, pulled from multiple sources, which offer insight into the havoc surrounding the storm:\nThe worst damage happened in Bay County, specifically Tyndall Air Force Base and Mexico Beach, where 1,584 of the town’s 1,692 buildings were damaged. The report shows that 809 buildings there were totally destroyed. Countywide, the Hurricane Center said, 45,000 structures were damaged in Bay and 4,185 in neighboring Gulf. Even areas further inland sustained major losses, including 400 destroyed buildings in Jackson County.\nSeven people died in Florida, directly because of the hurricane, according to the Hurricane Center. Five drowned — three in Mexico Beach, one near Port St. Joe, and one closer to Panama City. Two others died under fallen trees in Quincy and Alford. At least another 43 people died with some connection to the storm — during clean-up, in car crashes or from medical problems worsened by the disaster.\nStorm surge inundation peaked in Mexico Beach, between 9 and 14 feet. Waves worsened the destruction.\nFlorida sustained $18.4 billion in damage.\nForecast tracks were accurate, but the storm’s intensity defied expectations that wind shear would prevent the hurricane from becoming so strong.

The Florida coastal city of Jacksonville could face significant flooding, Florida governor Rick Scott warned. The storm had cut power to some 600 000 households, he said.\nIn Haiti, where poor rural communities were ravaged by Matthew earlier this week, the death toll surged to at least 478 people yesterday, as information trickled in from remote areas previously cut off by the storm, officials said.\nAt 8am EDT (1200 GMT), Matthew’s eye, or centre, was 55km east of Cape Canaveral in Florida, home to the country’s main space launch site.\n“The winds are ferocious right now,” said Jeff Piotrowski, a 40-year-old storm chaser from Tulsa, Oklahoma, who was near Cape Canaveral early yesterday. The storm downed power lines and trees and destroyed billboards in Cape Canaveral, he said.\nNo significant damage or injuries were reported in West Palm Beach and other communities in south Florida where the storm had brought down trees and power lines earlier in the night, CNN and local media reported.\nBut Craig Fugate, director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency, said in media interviews he was concerned relatively light damage so far could give people further north a false sense of security.\n“People should not be looking at the damages they’re seeing and saying this storm is not that bad,” Fugate told NBC. He also said people should be aware the hurricane carried more than just ferocious winds. The real danger still is storm surge, particularly in northern Florida and southern Georgia. “These are very vulnerable areas. They’ve never seen this kind of damage potential since the late 1800s.\n“It’s still a very dangerous situation,” he said.\nNasa and the US Air Force, which operate the Cape Canaveral launch site, had taken steps to safeguard personnel and equipment. A team of 116 employees was bunkered down inside Kennedy Space Centre’s Launch Control Centre to ride out the hurricane.\nIn West Palm Beach, street lights and houses went dark and Interstate 95 was empty as the storm rolled through the community of 100 000 people.\nMatthew lessened in intensity on Thursday night and into yesterday morning, the National Hurricane Centre said. From an extremely dangerous Category 4 storm, it became a Category 3 on the five-step Saffir-Simpson scale of hurricane intensity, but was still a major storm.\nIt could either plough inland or tear along the Atlan- tic coast through yesterday night, the Miami-based centre said, warning of “potentially disastrous impacts”.\nThe US National Weather Service said the storm could be the most powerful to strike northeast Florida in 118 years.\nThe NHC’s director, Rick Knabb, said that although Matthew was so far raking the coast, with its eye offshore, it still posed great danger to residents along the coast.\n“You don’t have to be near the centre of the hurricane to be in the centre of action with inland flooding,” he said. – Reuters\nA resident walks past a wall of sandbags protecting a store in a low-lying area before the arrival of Hurricane Matthew, in Charleston, South Carolina, US.\nA man tries to repair his home destroyed by Hurricane Matthew in Les Cayes, Haiti, on Thursday.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Svalbard and the Arctic are among the few places on Earth where you can see the northern lights, a mesmerizing natural phenomenon that leads to colorful dancing waves in the sky.\nNorthern lights, also called aurora borealis, are polar lights observed in the northern hemisphere. In contrast, the polar lights that appear in the southern hemisphere are known as aurora australis or southern lights. Both of these phenomena are collectively called aurora, and interestingly, they are born on the surface of the Sun.\nThe birth of the aurora\nSolar storms on the Sun's surface emit huge clouds of electrically charged particles. These charged particles are blown towards the earth by the solar wind. These particles are largely deflected by the earth's magnetic field. However, some are captured by the magnetic field and accelerated down towards the north and south poles, entering the atmosphere and colliding with gas particles. These collisions excite atoms located in Earth’s upper atmosphere, leading to the emission of light.\nLights emerge in different wavelengths depending on where the collisions occur and what molecules are involved. For instance, when a charged particle hits a nitrogen molecule, blue or purple light may appear, if it strikes an oxygen molecule located around 60 miles up, a yellow-green light is produced, but at a height of 200 miles, striking oxygen will produce a rarer red light.\nThese dazzling light waves are the aurora, and the color of an aurora depends on the chemical composition of our planet’s atmosphere. The discharge of coronal mass from the Sun is continuous but does not always take place with the same intensity. Sometimes the CME takes place in the form of a \"storm\" and a high amount of energy is released. During such coronal discharge, the brightest aurora borealis are observed.\nAccording to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), a strong CME storm hits Earth roughly every 11 years, and this event of fierce solar activity is called the solar maximum. The next solar maximum will occur in 2025.\nInteresting facts about the northern lights\nAuroras usually occur in the aurora oval, a ring-shaped belt about 4,000 km (2,500 miles) in diameter near the magnetic poles of the Earth. Because this belt is asymmetric and expands and contracts somewhat, the area where the auroras can be viewed does change. The northern lights are more likely to be visible in high northern latitudes, and can often be seen in northwestern Canada, Russia, Iceland, some places in the USA, Greenland, Sweden, Finnish Lapland, and Norway. However, they have been seen as far south as New Orleans in the western hemisphere.\nIn the southern hemisphere, the auroral oval is mostly over the oceans around Antarctica and the southern Indian Ocean, but they sometimes reach the far edges of New Zealand, Chile, and Australia, and occasionally even Argentina and South Africa.\nHere are some more interesting facts about the northern lights:\n- Venus doesn’t have a magnetic field but astronomers once spotted an aurora-like event on the planet. Scientists believe that the aurora may have occurred due to the collision between carbon dioxide and oxygen in Venus’ atmosphere and solar wind particles that penetrated deep into the upper atmosphere.\n- In 1619, Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei used the term “aurora borealis” for describing the northern lights. He named the phenomenon after Aurora, the Roman goddess of sunrise, and Boreas, the god of north wind in Greek mythology. Some historians also credit French philosopher Pierre Gassendi for coining the scientific name of the northern lights.\n- Magnetic midnight, the time when the North or South magnetic pole is directly between the sun and an observer on Earth, is considered the best time for watching the auroras.\n- There has been a persistent myth in Alaska and some other places that Japanese people believe that a child conceived under an aurora will grow up to be strong, intelligent, rich, and good-looking. This, however, is completely untrue - Japanese people do not believe this and never have. They do travel in large numbers to see the aurora in Alaska and elsewhere, but this is for their beauty and natural wonder.\n- The Inuit people (indigenous population of the Arctic and subarctic regions of Greenland, Canada, and Alaska) have legends about the northern lights that they are actually spirits of dead people playing football in the sky with walrus skulls, or walruses playing ball with a human head. Some Viking legends stated the aurora was the reflections of the Valkyries’ armor as they led fallen warriors to Valhalla, or the breath of brave soldiers who died in combat.\n- Yellowknife in Canada and Tromso in Norway are sometimes called aurora capitals because these cities offer some of the most frequent sitings of the northern lights. Other places where aurora appears frequently include Reykjavik, Iceland, and the Shetland Islands in Scotland.\n- If you look forward to spotting aurora borealis, you need to be very patient, because there is no fixed time at which aurora appears in the sky. However, experts believe that although they can occur anytime between 4 PM to 6 AM, the best time is usually between 10 PM to 1 AM.\n- The International Space Station (ISS) is located at the same height at which some auroras occur, and is higher than others. Therefore, the ISS crew can enjoy both a side view and a view from above of the northern lights.\n- The strongest CME storm was recorded during late August and early September in 1859. It led to the occurrence of very strong northern light phenomena and was referred to as the “Great Geomagnetic storm” of the \"Carrington Event\". The brightest aurora ever seen by astronomers was in 2015 when astronomers witnessed green and yellow aurora one million times brighter than the northern lights above a brown dwarf star located 18 light-years away.\n- The Earth’s magnetic field extends tens of thousands of miles into space. It is estimated to be at least 3.5 billion years old and protects Earth from solar wind. It is generated by the movement of the molten iron in the Earth's core.\n- Aurora borealis is also believed to be able to produce very faint audio effects like crackling, clapping, and wishing. The cultures of the indigenous Sami peoples of Finland, Sweden, and Norway contain myths mentioning noises when the aurora occurs.\n- Apart from Venus and Earth, scientists have observed aurora on other planets, including Jupiter, Neptune, Saturn, and Uranus.\n- Since the northern lights have maximum visibility during heavy solar storms., it is possible, although rare, to see the aurora as far south as Texas or Louisiana if a strong solar storm hits the Earth’s ionosphere.\n- The most common aurora color is green or greenish-yellow. This is because most solar particles collide with our atmosphere at an altitude of around 60 to 150 miles, where there are high concentrations of oxygen. The second most common aurora colors are pink and red. Our eyes can not easily spot the blue and purple color northern lights in the sky.\n- Many tour companies in Finland and Norway have built igloos and ice-themed hotels near the aurora sites to do the best business out of these naturally occurring polar lights.\n- In Norway, you need not go to a remote location to observe the northern lights because these can be easily spotted even in the skyline above cities like Tromsø, Narvik, and Bodø.\n- In Sweden, the northern lights are traditionally considered the symbol of good luck and a great fishing season. During the Viking age, some Swedish communities believed that auroras were gifts from the gods.\n- In Italy, France, and Britain, myths, and legends often painted the auroras as a sign of the arrival of unfortunate events such as war, plague, conflict, and death. This may be because, when the aurora appears further south in Europe, the lights often take on the reddish hue of blood.\n- The dancing waves of the aurora may feel like they are right above your head but in reality, the lights occur at heights from 80 kilometers (50 miles) to 640 kilometers (400 miles) above the earth's surface.\n- If you look forward to having the brightest and clearest view of aurora borealis, the closer you are to the north side of the Earth, the better. This is why the Arctic is considered the perfect place for observing the northern lights. You may get to see the aurora even during the afternoon in the Arctic.\n- In some parts of Alaska and Greenland, aurora borealis mostly appear at night time throughout the year, although they are harder to see under the Midnight Sun.\n- Since the south pole is colder than the north pole, the former is neither as accessible nor as hospitable to humans as compared to the latter. So it’s much more difficult for people to travel to the south pole to watch the aurora australis. The Southern Lights also often occur over the middle of the ocean, making them less accessible. This is why the northern lights are more popular than the southern lights. However, both polar lights provide viewers with almost the same visual treat.\n- The occurrence of aurora in China is very rare, due to the country’s latitudinal location but some ancient Chinese folk tales do mention them. In these legends, the aurora was believed to be a light effect resulting from the fight between good dragons and evil dragons.\n- Full moon days are not considered ideal for watching aurora, due to the brightness of the night sky.\n- Aurora can appear at any time of the day, but our eyes need a dark background to detect the colorful lights.\n- On January 5, 1892, German astronomer Otto Rudolf Martin Brendel captured the first photo of the northern lights. This black and white photograph came out for the first time in the October 1897 issue of The Century magazine.\n- The earliest depiction of the northern lights may have been in Cro-Magnon man-era cave paintings discovered in France. The cave paintings are believed to have been created around 30,000 BC and contain swirling lines which may depict auroras.\n- During the Great Geomagnetic Storm of 1859, the telegraph system in Europe and North America stopped working. It is believed that if a storm of similar magnitude strikes the Earth today, it could disrupt the global communication services.\n- The first pictures of aurora on a different planet (Jupiter and Saturn) were taken by NASA’s Voyager 1 and 2 space probes.\n- The Space Weather Prediction Center under NOAA maintains an online aurora forecast map through which you can find out which place is better suited to see the aurora on any given day.\n- In the early 1900s, Norwegian mathematician Carl Størmer studied 12,000 aurora pictures to determine the height at which auroral emissions occur. He calculated that most northern lights are produced at between 56 miles and 600 miles above the Earth's surface.\nDespite so much advancement in astronomy and atmospheric sciences, there are still questions about the science that governs the auroras and the CME. However, that does not mean scientists are not looking into it. NASA’s Parker Solar Probe, which flew through the Sun’s upper atmosphere in December 2021, is currently collecting vital information about CME.\nTherefore, it is very likely that in the coming years we will have even more detailed information about the eye-catching auroras that appear in our skyline.\nProfessor Gretchen Benedix is an astrogeologist and cosmic mineralogist who studies meteorites and figures the forming stages of the solar system.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Although Panama and Costa Rica were not in the direct path of Hurricane Beta, storm warnings were issued for the two countries on October 27 as heavy rains, up to 20 in (508 mm), from the outer bands of Beta were possible. Preliminary reports from the coast included toppled trees and electric poles and roofs stripped from homes and businesses, said Guillermo González, director of Nicaraguaâs emergency management agency. Eta is bringing powerful winds and a huge storm surge as it menaces coastal areas in Honduras and Nicaragua.  The next day, tropical storm warnings were put into effect for all of the islands.  The system turned further east and made landfall near Cedar Key, Florida at 09:00 UTC on November 12, possessing sustained winds of 50 mph (85 km/h). In San Cristóbal de las Casas many neighborhoods were damaged by the flooding Amarillo and Fogótico rivers. Downed trees and tree branches also resulted. A ferry leaving Roatán was rocked by large waves and winds with 300 passengers onboard while trying to reach the port of La Ceiba. Map of weather alerts in Costa Rica related to Hurricane Eta.  Land interaction caused Eta to rapidly weaken as it moved slowly westward after landfall with its eye disappearing and its central convection weakening. Hurricane Eta leaves three dead in Nicaragua and Honduras â two men in Nicaragua and a girl in Honduras â due to the intense rains. A total of 6 homes were destroyed while another 64 homes and 24 businesses suffered damage.  Overall, Eta caused C$6.128 billion (US$178.4 million) of damage in Nicaragua.  However, even after its center became sheared to the west of its convection, Eta began to re-intensify again over the warm waters of the Gulf.  Flooding in Panama's Chiriqui province, near the Costa Rica border killed 19 people.  Florida Power & Light reported just over 30,000 power outages in the Miami metropolitan area, including nearly 16,000 in Miami-Dade County alone.  In Brickell, recently installed storm water pumps to deal with tidal flooding and storms helped clear the flood water from the rain and high tide event. A green alert was issued for Copán, Ocotepeque, Lempira, Intibucá, La Paz, Valle, and Choluteca. , Eta bought heavy rainfall in areas already dealing with overflowing rivers.

Florida has experienced the brunt of hurricanes compared to other US states, with a record of over 120 direct hits since 1851.\nA detailed analysis of historical storm data reveals interesting patterns. The data, obtained from the NOAA National Hurricane Center's Hurricane Research Division, was represented in a graph above, demonstrating the likelihood of experiencing a hurricane on any given day of the year. We applied Gaussian smoothing to this historical storm data to better highlight the trends.\nThe graph compares daily probabilities of hurricanes from the Atlantic basin, Gulf storms, and actual landfalls of tropical storms in Florida. The peak of hurricane likelihood occurs in September, but there is a noticeable spike in tropical storm activity around June, which is characteristic of storms originating from the Gulf of Mexico. This proximity to the Gulf can also lead to an occasional risk of hurricanes outside the official hurricane season months.\nThe Gulf of Mexico is known to occasionally produce early storms due to its warm waters and favorable environmental conditions.\nThe Atlantic Coast, particularly the Southeast Florida region encompassing Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties, experiences the brunt of hurricanes. These coastal areas are at high risk due to their proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, where many hurricanes form.\nThe Florida Keys, a chain of islands south of the mainland, are also highly susceptible due to their low-lying topography and direct exposure to the Atlantic.\nOn the Gulf Coast, the Tampa Bay area often bears the brunt of hurricanes. The bay's unique shape and depth can amplify storm surges, leading to significant flooding in this region.\nThe following graph provides a visual representation of hurricane-prone areas in Florida. The heatmap, defined by the frequency of occurrence weighted by wind speed, transitions from blue to red. Blue areas indicate lower-risk regions, while red areas represent the highest risk.\nThe dense red clusters on the graph represent Southeast Florida and the Florida Keys, emphasizing their vulnerability to hurricanes. The Tampa Bay area, while not as intensely red, still exhibits a significant risk level due to the presence of lighter red and orange hues.\nPreparing for a hurricane season in Florida is a critical aspect of disaster management. Being prepared can significantly reduce the potential risks and damages associated with hurricanes. Before a Hurricane\nThe following is a brief hurricane preparation checklist:\nTo ensure safety during a hurricane, consider following these essential steps:\nThe aftermath of a hurricane can be as devastating as the storm itself. Knowing what to do next is crucial. Here's a list of steps to consider, particularly for those living in areas like Florida where such natural disasters are more common:\nStep 1: Ensure Safety - Confirm everyone's safety and avoid venturing outside until local authorities have declared it safe. Beware of hazards like downed power lines and contaminated water.\nStep 2: Document Damage - Take photos or videos to document the extent of damage to your property. This can be useful for insurance claims.\nStep 3: Contact Insurance Company - Report the damage to your insurance company as soon as possible. Keep a record of all conversations and correspondences.\nStep 4: Apply for Assistance - If eligible, apply for disaster assistance from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). You can apply online, over the phone, or by mail.\nStep 5: Start Clean-up - Begin the clean-up process once it's safe. Wear protective gear and watch out for wildlife displaced by the storm.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Their findings confirm that STEVE is not only a phenomenon distinct from the more familiar Aurora borealis and Aurora australis that extend from the Earth’s Arctic and Antarctic regions, respectively, but also that STEVE is actually made up of two distinct phenomena.\nAstronomers at Canada’s University of Calgary brought this phenomenon to the public’s attention in 2017, after learning of the mauve and green lights from citizen scientists’ posts on social media. Initially nicknaming the phenomenon “Steve”—a reference to the animated film “Over the Hedge”, where the characters use the name to describe a phenomenon that they don’t understand—the researchers later backronymed STEVE to stand for “Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement”.\nIn a study published in 2018, the researchers found that STEVE consisted of a river of hot gas (3,000°C / 5,432°F) that runs through an upper layer of the atmosphere called the thermosphere at an altitude of 300 kilometers (186 miles). Although it is only 25 kilometers (15.5 miles) wide, STEVE’s length runs for thousands of kilometers (or miles), and flows at 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) per second, despite the surrounding air only moving at about 10 meters (32.8 feet) per second.\nFurther investigation has uncovered not only the mechanism behind STEVE’s unearthly glow, but also that it is actually two distinct phenomena, split between the meandering mauve ribbon and its segmented green “picket fence” appearance.\n“Aurora is defined by particle precipitation, electrons and protons actually falling into our atmosphere, whereas the STEVE atmospheric glow comes from heating without particle precipitation,” explains Bea Gallardo-Lacourt, a space physicist at the University of Calgary and co-author of the new study. “The precipitating electrons that cause the green picket fence are thus aurora, though this occurs outside the auroral zone, so it’s indeed unique.”\nIn a traditional aurora, charged particles from the solar wind and the Earth’s magnetosphere enter the upper atmosphere near the poles where it charges the nitrogen and oxygen present there, causing the gases to glow. STEVE’s glow, on the other hand, occurs when a flowing stream of charged particles in the ionosphere collide, causing friction that heats the particles enough to emit a mauve light. Basically, STEVE’s glow comes from a process more akin to the mechanism that lights a traditional incandescent light bulb, while aurorae work more like a fluorescent tube.\nThe green “picket fence” form of STEVE, so-named because to its segmented appearance, is generated by a different process altogether. This effect is more closely related to traditional aurorae in that it is generated by energetic electrons streaming in from outer space, however these particles hit the atmosphere farther south than the protons and electrons that cause aurorae, being knocked out of the magnetosphere into the ionosphere by high-frequency waves, where they produce their striped green glow. Interestingly, the picket fence form of STEVE occurs in both the northern and southern hemispheres simultaneously, indicating that the source of the charged particles comes from high enough above the Earth’s surface to affect both hemispheres at the same time.\nThe involvement of citizen scientists has proven to be invaluable in both the discovery of STEVE and the research uncovering the mechanism behind the phenomenon, providing photographic data coupled with precise time and location data to accompany the images. “As commercial cameras become more sensitive and increased excitement about the aurora spreads via social media, citizen scientists can act as a ‘mobile sensor network,’ and we are grateful to them for giving us data to analyze,” according to Toshi Nishimura, a space physicist at Boston University and lead author of the new study.\nSubscribers, to watch the subscriber version of the video, first log in then click on Dreamland Subscriber-Only Video Podcast link.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It was pretty wide, incoherent funnel that was rotating through here, but it did cause a lot of damage, a lot of tree damage,\" Drilltet said. \"Like I said the structure over here that kind of collapsed over here and the roof being off of this portion of the church over here.\"\nThe National Weather service is surveying other parts of the county to see where the storm started.\nThe tornado picked up the Parthenon Post Office from it's foundation and threw it more than 200 feet across the street. Postmaster Michael Black said they spent the day going through and trying to salvage the mail. He said he was surprised at the damage.\n\"That was the shocking part. I expected some damage, I've seen tornadoes on TV but never up close. Nobody hurt, you can always get another building for whatever purposes, you can't get another life,\" Black said.\nMembers of the Parthenon First Baptist Church spent time Tuesday cleaning up the damage from the storm.\n\"It's pretty big, but we'll come back, we'll recover, we'll be okay,\" James David said.\nDavid said the damage wont' keep the church from having services.\n\"We might just have to migrate outside instead..rain or shine we'll be alright,\" he said.\nEmergency management said they are really lucky that no one was seriously injured in the tornado.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Austin, a local barber, in a phone interview.\nThe Super Tuesday tornadoes killed at least 48 people, including four in this town. But a year-old siren system in the rural Arkansas county may have saved lives. Sirens blared 20 minutes before the tornado hit, enough time for Mr. Austin and his family to find shelter in his brother's basement.\nWith better weather monitoring and the wider use of sirens and other warning systems, the number of tornado deaths per million Americans has been decreasing in the United States for decades. Yet the tornadoes that swept the mid-South served as a reminder, experts say, that better public education and new technology, such as text-messaging on cellphones, could augment traditional warning systems.\nMeteorological trends seem to favor efforts to accomplish that. The frequency of the strongest twisters – F-4 and F-5 tornadoes, whose destruction is the most difficult to mitigate – is on the decline, even as the overall number of weaker storms has increased.\nThe sheer power of the front produced the most powerful breed of twisters, some of which may have overpowered even well-prepared residents, experts say.\n\"This was kind of an early season event, and I think it caught people off guard a little bit,\" says Chris Wikle, a weather statistician at the University of Missouri.\nThe Southeast is no stranger to winter tornadoes, notes Harold Brooks, a scientist at the National Severe Storms Laboratory in Norman, Okla. Last year, three tornadoes touched down along a track through east central Florida in the early morning hours of Feb. 2. They carved a path of destruction some 70 miles long. In Lake County, 21 people were killed. Then on March 1, a tornado outbreak struck southern Alabama killing 11. But to have an outbreak this severe in this part of the Southeast in the first week of February \"is pretty rare,\" he acknowledges.\nSince 2000, only 8 percent of tornado deaths have occurred inside the traditional tornado alley that runs from Texas and Oklahoma to Kansas, Nebraska, and South Dakota, according to the Storm Prediction Center, also in Norman. In 2007, the vast majority of tornado deaths came farther east, in the mid-South, ranging from Alabama to Kentucky.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The storm, with winds of 40 mph, may strengthen to 60 mph in two days as its forward speed slows.\nThe hurricane center is also tracking a tropical wave over Mexico’s Yucatan, home to beach resorts, that has a 50 percent chance of developing into a cyclone in the next two days.\n“There is potential for development once the disturbance moves over the Gulf of Mexico later today,” the center said in a separate advisory.\nThe Gulf is home to about 6 percent of U.S. natural gas output, 23 percent of oil production and at least 45 percent of petroleum-refining capacity, according to the U.S. Energy Department.\nThe Bay of Campeche, at the southern end of the Gulf, is where Petroleos Mexicanos, Mexico’s state-owned oil company, has most of its output. Florida is the second-largest producer of oranges after Brazil.\nErin will have “no impact to land for the foreseeable future” and poses little threat to the U.S., said Andy Mussoline, a meteorologist at AccuWeather Inc. in State College, Pennsylvania.\nAtlantic storms are followed closely by energy companies and commodities traders because they can disrupt production and processing of natural gas and oil and destroy crops.\nErin is the fifth storm of the Atlantic season, which runs from June 1 to Nov. 30. It’s forecast to encounter dry air farther west and there’s a chance it will fall apart about five days east of the Lesser Antilles, the center said yesterday.\nThe Caribbean system bears watching as it may strengthen once it reaches the southern Gulf, said Matt Rogers, president of Commodity Weather Group LLC in Bethesda, Maryland.\nSome computer models show the system gaining enough strength to become a tropical storm before going ashore for a last time anywhere from Mexico to Louisiana, Rogers said. Two of the most reliable models predict it won’t develop.\n“The next 12 to 24 hours will be critical to see what we have left of this wave as it crosses the Yucatan,” Mussoline said. Whether it develops, “the potential is there for heavy flooding rainfall to affect the central Gulf Coast this weekend.”\nEnbridge Inc.’s Manta Ray offshore natural gas gathering company evacuated non-essential personnel from two platforms off Louisiana on Aug. 14. Marathon Oil Corp. evacuated some workers from its Ewing Bank platform in the Gulf yesterday.\nBP Plc began removing non-essential personnel from four offshore platforms yesterday, and drilling rigs contracted by the company halted operations. Production at all platforms “remains online,” the company said in a website statement.\n(With assistance from Christine Buurma and Adam Cataldo in New York and Lananh Nguyen in London.

A tornado appears as a rotating, funnel-shaped cloud that extends from a thunderstorm to the ground with winds that can reach 300 miles per hour.\nA tornado’s path of damage can be in excess of one mile wide and 50 miles long. Drivers who are on the road in an area where a tornado warning is issued should park their vehicles and seek shelter immediately, preferably in a basement or the interior of the lowest floor of a sturdy building or storm shelter.\nIf outside with no shelter, drivers should lie flat in a near-by ditch or depression and cover their heads with their hands.

This remarkable phenomenon, detailed in their recent study published in Nature Astronomy, shares characteristics with auroral emissions seen in planetary magnetospheres and certain low-mass stars. Unlike transient solar radio bursts, these long-lasting polarized radio bursts persisted for over a week, suggesting a new paradigm in our understanding of solar phenomena.\nThe discovery draws parallels with the famous auroral light shows on Earth, such as the Aurora Borealis and Aurora Australis. These Earthly displays occur when solar activities disturb the Earth's magnetosphere, precipitating charged particles that interact with atmospheric gases, resulting in visible light. The newly observed solar auroras, however, occur at much higher frequencies due to the sunspot's significantly stronger magnetic field.\nLead author Sijie Yu and his team observed these emissions over a vast sunspot region, noting their difference from known solar radio noise storms. The emissions are thought to be caused by the electron-cyclotron maser (ECM) emission, involving energetic electrons trapped within the sunspot's magnetic field. This discovery offers a local solar analog to study similar phenomena in other stars and planets.\nFurthermore, these solar radio emissions are not necessarily tied to solar flares. Instead, flare activities in nearby regions may energize electrons that power the ECM radio emission above the sunspot. This 'sunspot radio aurora' exhibits a 'cosmic lighthouse effect,' rotating in sync with the solar rotation and creating a rotating beam of radio light.\nThis discovery has profound implications for astrophysics, providing insights into the behavior of our Sun and the magnetic activities of other stars. It challenges current models of stellar magnetic activity and helps understand signals from M-dwarfs, the most common star type in the universe.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Due to these pre-season activities, the National Hurricane Center (or as described in National Hurricane Center wikipedia page ) NOAA has decided that beginning this year (2021), officials will issue their routine ‘tropical weather outlook’ forecasts starting on May 15th, rather than June 1st, 2021. So, the June 1st starting date is now just a formality from the past, with a new unofficial starting date of May 15th.\nIn the video published on Feb 28, 2021, “2021 Atlantic Hurricane Season | Will NOAA move the Hurricane Season start date to May 15th?“, below:\nIn the video published on May 15, 2021, “NOAA in High Gear as Hurricane Season Looms for the Lowcountry | FOX 24 News Now“, below:\nIn the video published on May 15, 2021, “Official 2021 Atlantic Hurricane Season Forecast | Deciphering Weather“, below:\nAbove-active storm activity forecast for the 2021 season.

What are this season’s list of storm names?” below:\nGreek letters will no longer be used as part of the naming system of Atlantic hurricanes starting this year. Above normal activities are seen in the forecast this year.\nThe Director of the National Hurricane Center, Kenneth Graham, said, “We are going to issue the Atlantic Outlook, the actual outlook product where you have the blobs on the website, we’re going to start that on May 15th instead of June 1st because we want to make sure we get that information out and start having those areas of concern. We’re going to do that a little earlier which is a better service.”\nThe Atlantic is not the only ocean basin with pre-season tropical activity in recent years. May 15th is already the official starting date for eastern Pacific hurricane season: Tropical Andres was named after it formed over 600 miles south of Baja California nearly one week ago (May 9, 2021). Andres became the earliest tropical storm ever formed in the eastern Pacific, surpassing Adrian formed on May 10 in 2017.\nIn the video published on May 5, 2021, “Important insurances coverages to have before hurricane season begins June 1“, below:\nIn the video published on Aug 31, 2016, “How to Prepare for a Hurricane | Disasters“, below:\nIn the video published on Nov 10, 2017, “How to prepare for a hurricane (before, during, after)“, below:\nFor more on Hurricane Electricity Safety, please click HERE.\nKeep in mind that these earlier activities are all part of the climate change resulting from global warming.

Only seven injuries - six minor and one critical - were reported there.\nFire officials in Lancaster, 20 miles south of Dallas, reported a tornado on Tuesday touched down in the northern part of the city and moved southeast through the city, the report said. Around 150 homes were destroyed, 100 residents displaced to shelters and 10 injuries reported, including two listed as severe. City officials there issued a disaster declaration.\nDallas also reported 40 homes and a truck stop were severely damaged.\nThe destructive reminder of a young tornado season Tuesday left thousands without power and grounded passengers at Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, where more than 110 planes were damaged.\nDelays and cancellations are likely Wednesday. \"The variable we really don't know is how fast we can get the inspections done and, second of all, what level of potential damage we find that must be repaired,\" airline spokesman Tim Smith said.\nThe Dallas Morning News reported that American and its regional affiliate American Eagle canceled 424 flights Wednesday \"as their mechanics hurried to inspect aircraft that were pounded by hail in Tuesday's storms.\"\nAmerican spokeswoman Andrea Huguely told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram that American and American Eagle took 94 aircraft out of service as of 7:30 a.m. ET Wednesday morning because of hail damage.\nHuguely said the company was working to inspect the planes as quickly as possible. The Morning News said American \"flew in extra mechanics from its Tulsa maintenance base, while American Eagle brought in mechanics from its Abilene base to check over the regional carrier's aircraft.\"\nAt least 1,400 passengers disrupted by Tuesday's cancellations were forced to spend that night at DFW's terminals, airport spokesman David Magana told the Star-Telegram. He said the airport provided cots, blankets, pillows and toiletry kits by request to the stranded passengers.\n\"Thousands of other passengers went to area hotels or made other arrangements for lodging,\" Magana said.\nStarting about 1:30 p.m., severe storms hit the area and continued for more than two hours, the National Weather Service said.\nNational Weather Service meteorologist Jesse Moore said Wednesday that the damage in Arlington suggested an EF2 twister struck there. EF2 tornadoes are classified as having wind gusts between 111 and 135 mph.\nIn suburban Dallas, Lancaster police officer Paul Beck said 10 people were injured, two severely. Three people were injured in Arlington, including two nursing home residents, Assistant Fire Chief Jim Self said.\nAs the sun rose Wednesday over Lancaster, one of the hardest hit areas, it was clear that twisters had bounced in and out of neighborhoods, destroying homes at random. Vehicles were tossed like toys, coming to rest in living rooms and bedrooms.\nAround 150 people spent Tuesday night in a shelter.\nThe city, 20 miles south of Dallas, was the worst-hit city, absorbing \"extensive damage,\" said Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins, who heads the County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.\n\"I guess 'shock' is probably a good word,\" Lancaster Mayor Marcus Knight said.\nIn the Dallas suburb of Mesquite, a Speedy Oil Change and Tune-Up shop was destroyed, and other buildings were damaged.\nAbout 12,600 homes in Arlington alone remained without power late Tuesday, said Tiara Ellis Richard, a police spokeswoman for the city.\nResidents were warned early Tuesday of the possibility of severe weather, but the bad weather spun off tornadoes with such ferocity that they caught most everyone by surprise, Jenkins said. \"The people who got hit first got little warning,\" he said.\nLocal TV showed 14,000-pound tractor-trailers in Dallas caught in wind funnels and being flicked high into the air like matchsticks.\nSocial media sites also lit up during the storm, as users reported scrambling to bathrooms and basements for safety. One woman described riding out the storm in a food cooler at a Costco store with dozens of other customers.\nAmerican Airlines took the rare step of shutting down all flights at the Dallas/Fort Worth airport, Smith said. Workers had to inspect 68 American Airline planes and 33 American Eagle planes for hail damage.\nDFW Airport spokesman David Magana said more than 110 planes were damaged by hail, but he didn't say which airlines.\nOverall, 370 departures were canceled Tuesday — nearly half of all departures on a typical day, Smith said.\nSevere thunderstorms are forecast Wednesday for the lower Mississippi Valley and Tennessee Valley, Weather Channel meteorologist Kevin Roth said. The states at greatest risk for severe storms, according to the Storm Prediction Center, include Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama and western Tennessee. Large hail and strong winds are the greatest threat, but tornadoes are also possible.\nTuesday's storms occurred when a high-level trough of cold air collided with surface warm air that had been floating over Texas from the Gulf of Mexico for days, said John Nielsen-Gammon, Texas' state climatologist.\nForecasters predicted severe weather for that area, but the region wasn't prepared for the intensity and severity of the storms, Nielsen-Gammon said.\n\"They've always known the risk of tornado but they're generally not the super-intense ones,\" Nielsen-Gammon said.\nThe area is in the southern rim of \"Tornado Alley\" and has had its share of destructive twisters in the past, he said. A massive tornado that hit Waco in 1953, killing 114 and injuring 597, still holds the state record for deadliest tornado, according to the National Weather Service.\n\"Along the list of worst case scenarios for severe weather is for an (EF5) tornado to hit Dallas,\" Nielsen-Gammon said. \"It's the largest metropolitan area that has the great significant risk for that type of tornado.\"\nContributing: Nancy Trejos, Natalie DiBlasio and Ben Mutzabaugh; the Associated Press","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

There is also an EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH in effect from Saturday afternoon through Sunday evening according to to the National Weather Service.\nA Special Weather Statement was also issued by the NWS:\n“A LINE OF STRONG THUNDERSTORMS WILL AFFECT SOUTHERN FAIRFIELD… SOUTHEASTERN NEW HAVEN AND SOUTHERN MIDDLESEX COUNTIES… At 517 PM EDT, radar indicated strong thunderstorms were located along a line extending from Milford to near Norwalk. Movement was east at 30 m.p.h. Winds in excess of 40 m.p.h. are possible with these storms.\nLocations impacted include… Bridgeport, New Haven, Norwalk, Milford, Wallingford, Shelton, Guilford, Clinton, Old Saybrook, Chester, Fairfield, Hamden, Stratford, Trumbull and Branford.\nTorrential rainfall is also occurring with these storms and may cause localized flooding. Do not drive your vehicle through flooded roadways. Frequent cloud to ground lightning is occurring with this storm. Lightning can strike 10 miles away from a thunderstorm. Seek a safe shelter inside a building or vehicle.”\nSevere Thunderstorm Watch is in effect now through 10 p.m. this evening for the following counties:\n- FAIRFIELD, HARTFORD, LITCHFIELD, MIDDLESEX, NEW HAVEN, NEW LONDON, TOLLAND, WINDHAM.\nFinally, an Excessive Heat Watch was also issued for Northern Fairfield, Southern Fairfield, Southern New Haven, Northern Westchester, Southern Westchester, and surrounding counties. The EXCESSIVE HEAT WATCH is in effect from Saturday afternoon through Saturday evening from 12 p.m. Saturday through 10 p.m.\nAccording to the NWS:\n“Extreme heat can cause illness and death among at- risk population who cannot stay cool. The heat and humidity may cause heat stress during outdoor exertion or extended exposure. Take extra precautions if you work or spend time outside. When possible, reschedule strenuous activities to early morning or evening. Know the signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion and heatstroke. Wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing when possible, and drink plenty of water.\nSeniors and those with chronic health problems or mental health conditions are at increased risk. Homes without air conditioning can be much hotter than outdoors. Use air conditioning to stay cool at home or go to a place that has air conditioning. Check on vulnerable friends, family members and neighbors. Anyone overcome by heat should be moved to a cool and shaded location. Heatstroke is an emergency! In cases of heat stroke call 9 1 1.”\nIt’s also important to remember to keep your pets cool in excessive heat. Here are some tips from ABC 7 News:\n- * Avoid dehydration: Pets can dehydrate quickly, so give them plenty of fresh, clean water.\n- * Exercise early and late: When the temperature is very high, don’t let your dog linger on hot asphalt. Your pet’s body can heat up quickly, and sensitive paw pads can burn.\n- * Know when your pet is in danger: Symptoms of overheating in pets include excessive panting or difficulty breathing, increased heart and respiratory rate, drooling, mild weakness, stupor, or even collapse. Animals with flat faces like Pugs and Persian cats are more susceptible to heat stroke since they cannot pant as effectively. They should be kept cool in air-conditioned rooms as much as possible.\n- * Never leave a pet inside of a parked car on a hot day. Even with the windows open, extreme temperatures inside a parked can could quickly lead to fatal heat stroke for your pet.\n- * Keep cats safe by installing screens in your windows. Unscreened windows pose a real danger to cats, who fall out of them often during summer months.\n- * Prepare with your pet: Pet food, water, medications and supplies should always be included in your emergency preparedness plans and “go bags.”\nSome local towns are already announcing cancellations of events, and others have posted important information about cooling centers.

The National Weather Service (NWS) has issued a Hazardous Weather Outlook now through Sunday which “will likely bring accumulating snow from late Tuesday night into Wednesday evening.”\nNECN’s meteorologist said this could be enough to bring “plowable snow” and “cause delays and cancellations for Thursday morning.”\nWFSB meteorologist Bruce DePrest stated that light snow will begin early in the morning on Wednesday and then snow will become heavy at times, with strong winds. Snow is expected to end before dawn on Thursday. Depending on the track of the storm, some areas may receive significant snowfall of 6 inches or more, according to the NWS.\n“We are forecasting 6-12 inches for much of the state,” DePrest said.\nIf area students have a snow day, many will be getting out in late June as snow day totals approach nearly two dozen for some schools.\nPhoto credit: Wendy Ann Mitchell","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Wind gusts topping 70 mph were reported at Tinker Air Force Base in Oklahoma City.\nDamage to some roofs and a garage also were reported in Nowata County, and tree and power line damage was reported in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area. The winds and storms caused more than 18,100 power outages in western, central and northeastern Oklahoma.\nThe heavy winds propelled grass fires across the area, and Osage County Undersheriff Lou Ann Brown told the Tulsa World that four people had to be evacuated.

We also expect warmer than average sea temperatures and an active West African Monsoon.\nAfter a record-breaking 2020 hurricane season, we now know the Greek alphabet will no longer be used to name storms.\nThe World Meteorological Organization announced the Greek alphabet will not be used in the future because it \"creates a distraction from the communication of hazard and storm warnings and is potentially confusing.\"\nThere has been only one other season that used the extra set of names, and that was in 2005. The World Meteorological Organization released a new set of supplemental names that will be used if the season exhausts the standard list.\nBe prepared if a storm comes our way\nBEFORE THE STORM\n- Make a home inventory\n- Have a current copy of your declarations page that has your policy number and your agent's number\n- Review your policy with your insurance agent to determine if you have adequate coverage\n- Repair loose boards, shingles, shutters and downspouts to prevent them from becoming an issue in high winds or torrential rain\n- Have an evacuation plan, and include plans for your pets\n- Make sure your emergency equipment is in working order, including a battery-powered radio, flashlights and extra batteries. Also, make sure to gather all medicine, replenish your first-aid kit and stock a week's worth of non-perishable food and water\n- Charge your cell phone and fill your car with gas\n- Program all emergency phone numbers\nDURING THE STORM\n- If you are advised to evacuate, leave as soon as possible.

In a dramatic late surge in the monsoon here, the threat of drought that loomed large over the region in mid-August has given way to gushing rivers and water bodies filled to the brim in Jaisalmer and Barmer districts.\nAs on September 18, monsoon rainfall in western Rajasthan was 15% above normal, almost all of it coming since the second week of August. As late as August 22, the region had a rain deficit of 25%, with most villages facing severe water crisis that prompted the state government to declare a drought.\nIt hasn't stopped raining since. So much so that many places were faced with problems of water-logging. Jaisalmer on an average gets 165mm of rain but this year the figures reached to 220.7mm.\nWeekly deviations from normal rains in the district between August 8 and September 12 were 268%, -44%, 37%, 300% and 381%. The story was no different in Barmer, which has recorded 202mm of rain.\nIronically, when a central study team visited the region on September 5 to take the stock of drought, the rains had not till then showed its full measure. The situation had prompted team leader U K Singh to remark, \"There will be no crops. The rains did not occur on time and farmers are faced with a lot of problem.\"\nBut no sooner had the team returned, the heavens opened up. There was water logging in low lying areas, roads were flooded and the sand was swept under railway tracks. People here are now praying for the rains to stop. There is a good crop but more rains might ruin it.\nThe desert in twin district of Barmer is more green than it has ever been. According to Dr J P Singh, a scientist with the Central Arid Zone Research Institute (CAZRI), \"This could be a sign of climate change. In times to come, the cultivation time may shift.\"\nThis year's pattern — heavy rain in the second half of the season — has more or less been the norm in the past three-four years. As a result, many desert villages in the region are looking greener than ever before.\nDistrict collector Shuchi Tyagi said the late surge in rains has solved the problem of fodder and water. It is hard to imagine that the threat of drought loomed in this very region a little more than a month ago.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A strong and robust compliance program is essential to protect both air quality and communities.”\nThe company issued a statement Tuesday, attributing the excess emissions to power interruptions, equipment malfunctions and other disruptions at its New Mexico facilities, and contending it reported these problems to the Environment Department, making it exempt from penalties.\nWell before the state issued the compliance order, DCP had improved the efficiency of the eight compressor stations, even with the exponential energy growth in the Delaware Basin, spokeswoman Sarah Sandberg said in the statement.\n“We have reduced the instances of malfunctions, upsets and emergency events at these facilities and have been successful in substantially reducing excess emission events over the last 12 months,” Sandberg said.\nDCP operates 61 plants and 12 facilities for fractionation — or separating liquid natural gas into various components — in 16 states. It produces about 400,000 barrels of liquid natural gas per day, according to the company’s website.\nIf companies like DCP fail to comply with air pollution laws, they will emit excessive amounts of volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and carbon monoxide, a chief greenhouse gas, the Environment Department said.\nThese uncurbed emissions may affect public health and the environment, the agency said, adding the substances can contribute to ground-level ozone, which is especially harmful to those with respiratory problems, and increase hazardous air pollutants.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Some forecasts suggest it may not be until Wednesday that it moves past the Philippines and on to Taiwan.\nUnlike previous tropical cyclones, the threat from typhoon Koppu is not so much from the wind but from the massive amount of rain.\nMore than a metre of rainfall is forecast in just a few days in Luzon province. That is double what London gets in an entire year.\nIn the south of Luzon, it has brought severe flooding with whole villages under water. But perhaps more dangerous are massive landslides. The fear is that with the ground heavy and saturated with water, whole hillsides could collapse.\nWe visited one small community near Burgos where 70 families are now living in a makeshift evacuation centre because of the fear the hills on which they live could collapse.\nTyphoon Koppu made landfall near the town of Casiguran on the main island of Luzon on Sunday morning, bringing winds of close to 200km/h (124mph) and cutting power to vast areas.\nA teenager was killed by a fallen tree in Manila which also injured four others. A concrete wall also collapsed in the town of Subic, northwest of Manila, killing a 62-year-old woman, officials said.\nBy dawn on Monday, wind speeds were down to 150 km/h (93 mph) in the northern town of Santiago, according to the state weather service.\nBut floodwaters are preventing even military vehicles reaching many of the worst-hit villages, and rescuers report a shortage of boats.\n“We haven’t reached many areas. About 60% to 70% of our town is flooded, some as deep as three metres,” said Henry Velarde, vice mayor of Jaen, a town in Nueva Ecija province.\n“There are about 20,000 residents in isolated areas that need food and water.”\nWhile the Philippines is no stranger to typhoons and tropical storms, the slow-moving nature of Koppu means heavy rain will fall for longer than usual, bringing greater risk of flooding and landslides.\nIt is the second strongest storm to hit the archipelago this year.\nJustin Morgan, Philippines country director for the charity Oxfam, told the BBC while evacuations for those still in the path of the typhoon was the most urgent task, “we can expect that there will be needs in terms of helping people recover their livelihoods as we know that many of the farmers would have lost their crops”.\nThere are two typhoons in the west Pacific at the moment – Typhoon Champi sits just to the east of Koppu.\nThe complex interaction between these two typhoons and the warm air within these storms helps to build a ridge of high pressure over Taiwan this weekend.

Kayrros, an energy and environmental geo-analytics company, noticed and analyzed the data it captured.\nA report from the firm estimated the plume had an emissions rate of 11 metric tonnes an hour, roughly equivalent to the annual emissions of 200 cars.\nMethane emissions are also more potent to global warming than carbon dioxide, especially in the 20 years after entering the atmosphere.\nChristian Lelong, director of climate solutions for Kayrros, says regulators need to amp up efforts to prevent the creation of similar events.\n\"We often see these kinds of events in proximity to gas pipelines,\" Lelong said in an interview. \"Now we have the tools to detect [greenhouse gasses] by region, company, and facility.\n\"The good news is this is a very important step in addressing the problem in helping companies and the industry as a whole in reducing its carbon footprint and working toward climate initiatives.\"\nThe Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) is responsible for overseeing pipeline and energy development, including controlled burns and gasses purposefully released into the atmosphere.\nThe AER accesses data from the same satellite but said the cloud was not flagged.\nOptical gas imaging\nRegulations in Canada are mostly based on surveys that use optical gas imaging (OGI) cameras at oil and gas sites to detect sources of methane leaks.\nBut a study published last year suggests there is a stark difference between what the OGI surveys find and what new airplane-mounted technology can see. It surmised that policy and regulations relying on OGI could be missing a significant portion of emissions.\nMore than half of methane emissions were attributed to storage tanks, reciprocating compressors and unlit flares, according to the study. Storage tanks alone accounted for a quarter of methane emissions at oil and gas sites.\nThese sources are harder to detect with OGI surveys because they are elevated and might be missed by a camera at ground level.\nMatthew Johnson, the study's co-author and head of the energy and emissions research lab at Carleton University, said in an email he is not surprised by the recent plume's location.\n\"It would be helpful to know the actual location and extent of the 'plume,' Johnson said. \"The area has historically seen very high levels of direct/intentional venting of gas during cold heavy oil production with sand.\"\nThe AER said in an emailed statement that it had conducted an investigation into the plume. Companies are required to notify the agency and the public before flaring or venting operations.\n\"Our team conducted a thorough investigation of venting events reported and found no significant venting events in the area reported to the AER at that time,\" the statement read, adding that elevated methane concentrations does not indicate non-compliance or an industry-related event.\nJan Gorski, director of the Pembina Institute's oil and gas program, said consistent regulation is vital to spotting emissions.\n\"The source, location, and generation of methane emissions is unpredictable, which is why we need good measurement and monitoring to catch these rare events,\" he said.\n\"If it's something caught by satellite it shows that it was a pretty significant source of methane emissions.\"\nGorski said the current data on the average level of methane gas emissions from the gas sector is based on studies from more than a decade ago.\nHe said information need to be updated in order to improve regulations and monitoring.\nThe federal government's climate plan to reach net-zero by 2050 has an interim goal to cut emissions across all sectors 40 to 45 per cent below 2005 levels by 2030.\nThat would require a 42 per cent cut in oil and gas emissions, something Gorski says won't be accomplished until there is a more narrow and accurate estimation of emissions in the energy sector.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The fireballs could be seen moving across the night sky in the next few days. The people can get a glimpse of the Taurid meteor shower from November 5 to November 12. The current meteor is expected to appear a month after the Draconids and South Taurid showers. The comets have debris released that are found racing down the sky. The combination of the North and South Taurids can be well seen in the Taurid meteor shower. This shower is known to create amazing fireballs. The skywatchers can have a favorite site in the night sky.\nThe fireballs could start appearing in the night sky from November 2 itself. The peak will be the highest on November 6. The Taurid fireballs are found to move really slowly compared to other showers. The shower will majorly appear orange in color. The people wanting to have a clear view will have to move away from light-emitting regions and have their eyes glued on the night sky. The fireballs will be found to be painting the whole sky. This year is a spectacular one for the Taurid shower.\nParallelly, researchers had spotted the Draconids meteor shower on October 8. The annual meteor shower produced about 8 shooting stars per hour and there is also a chance of 100 meteor outbursts on an hourly basis. The Marshall Space Center in Huntsville saw the shower streak the sky. The Draconids is found to be originating from the constellation Draco, which is located close to the northern region of the Little Dipper. The comet Giacobini-Zinner is the reason behind the origin of the Draconid meteor shower. It is kind of an all-or-nothing meteor shower that produces spectacular outbursts or meteor storms.\nLinda holds a total of 6 Years of experience in the content writing field.

In fact, it is likely the hottest place on Earth. Especially on Sunday, August 16 and—again—on June 17, 2021. The mercury spiked to a sweltering 130 degrees Fahrenheit in the national park, drawing crowds of tourists who flocked to take pictures with the park’s digital thermometer.\nThe World Meteorological Organization (WMO) confirmed the 130-degree temperature in 2020 as the hottest temperature ever reliably recorded. (At the very least, it will go down as the hottest temperature ever recorded in August.)\n🌍 Want best-in-class earth science features and unlimited access to all things Pop Mech? Go pro now!\nMore From Popular Mechanics\n“Reliably recorded” is the key phrase when it comes to the hottest place on Earth. On July 10, 1913, the mercury at Furnace Creek in Death Valley, California, spiked to 134 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the WMO. To this day, it is often cited as the highest temperature recorded on Earth, but is debated by some in the meteorological community. Some have argued that instruments at the time weren’t reliable enough to have accurately recorded such temperatures. (The WMO, for its part, is sticking to the story.)\nA previous record of 136.4 degrees Fahrenheit, recorded in 1922 in El Azizia, Libya, was disqualified 90 years later, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. The organization noted that the record could have been off by as much as seven degrees due to the type of surface it was recorded on. (By the way, Dallol, Ethiopia, has been dubbed as the hottest regularly inhabited place on Earth.)\nWhy is Death Valley so hot?\nAir temperatures often jump to around 120 degrees Fahrenheit, and that’s all thanks to geography, a lack of water, and blistering heat, according to the National Park Service. Less than two inches of rain falls in the valley on average each year, leaving the plants and animals that live there parched. The Sun’s rays bake the valley, which dips 282 feet below sea level and is surrounded by mountain ranges on all sides.\nHere’s how Death Valley reaches these sweltering temperatures as the hottest place on Earth: Hot air in Death Valley rises and trapped by the surrounding mountain ranges. It cools and falls back into the valley, where it is compressed and heated by air pressure found at such low elevations. Death Valley may have the hottest recorded air temperature on Earth, but there are other hot spots on Earth.\nTemperatures in the colorful geothermal pools at Yellowstone National Park, for instance, can spike to over 250 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the national park’s website. Hydrothermal vents at the bottom of the ocean spit out liquids that can reach temperatures of over 750 degrees Fahrenheit, according to National Geographic. Some organisms—extremophiles—have adapted to live life in these severe environments.\nThe temperature of Earth’s core is about 11,000 degrees Fahrenheit, according to Discover magazine. How exactly do scientists measure this? Earth has a solid iron inner core and a liquid iron outer core. The boundary between the two is expected to be the temperature at which pressurized iron melts. To estimate this number, scientists placed a tiny piece of iron between two diamond points, heated up the experiment and squeezed. To get the precise temperature, they measured how x-rays trained on the spec of iron were diffracted.\nWhat about the hottest temperatures in the solar system? To find that, you’d have to travel all the way to the Sun’s core, which scientists estimate could tip the mercury at around 15 million Kelvin—that’s roughly 26 million degrees Fahrenheit. Looking for a planetary heat source? Jupiter’s core, according to researchers, can reach temperatures of around 30,000 Kelvin, or about 53,000 degrees Fahrenheit.\nSurprisingly, the hottest temperature in the universe can be found a lot closer to home. Just outside of Geneva, Switzerland, scientists and engineers at the Large Hadron Collider have been smashing atoms together in a slew of incredible experiments. Temperatures inside these chambers have reached an astounding 7.2 trillion degrees Fahrenheit, according to Inside Science News Service. That’s hot!\nOur planet is only getting warmer, and records are sure to break in the coming years. We’ll be keeping an eye on the mercury to see how high it jumps.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

We’ve done everything we were told to,” said a hotel owner in the small town of Mucojo which is projected to be close to the eye of the cyclone.\n“We’ve learned with Idai that it’s a good strategy to allocate the rescue means before the cyclone…” Augusto Maita, general director of INGC told AFP.\nThe province of Cabo Delgado, bordering Tanzania, is also dealing since 2017 with a wave of deadly violence attributed to a jihadist group that advocates the application of Islamic law.\nVolunteers of the Red Cross and Red Crescent, who had assisted in cyclone Idai rescue efforts, said teams were already “on alert”.\n“We are concerned about the impact that this storm could have across the three countries,” regional director for Africa for the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFC), Dr Fatoumata Nafo-Traore said.\n“We are especially concerned about its possible impact in Mozambique where communities are still recovering from the devastation of Cyclone Idai,” she said.\nIn Mozambique alone, Idai killed more than 600 people and affected 1.85 million, while over 340 died in Zimbabwe.\n“Typically cyclones occur in the rainy season which is already over. This cyclone at the end of April is unusual,” Comoros environment ministry expert Youssouf Hamadi told AFP.\n“It confirms the increasing intensity and frequency of cyclones in the Indian Ocean” — a phenomenon some blame on global warming.\n© Agence France-Presse","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

County level AQI data are available at the EPA website. Asthma prevalence data for each state are available on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) website. Data from 50 US states (2011-2013) were analyzed for AQI and asthma prevalence.

As of Thursday evening the Category 2 hurricane was in the Bahamas, north of Cuba, but is expected to merge with a polar cold front to create a \"hybrid vortex\" and some uncertainty.\n\"Once the combined gyre materializes, it should settle back to the interior Northeast through Halloween, inviting perhaps a ghoulish nickname for the cyclone along the lines of 'Frankenstorm,' an allusion to Mary Shelley's Gothic creature of synthesized elements,\" the National Weather Service wrote in its forecast.\nAdd to that a full moon high tide Monday evening, which will cause the water level to rise about a foot, even without high wind and rain.\nExpected to make landfall near the Connecticut coastline at about 2 p.m. Tuesday, the National Weather Service said residents can expect to \"feel the impacts of a dangerous coastal storm late this weekend into early next week.\" High winds, \"widespread\" downing of trees, \"significant\" flooding and other damage can be anticipated.\nQuincy Vagell, a meteorologist with Storm Team 8 at WTNH, said where the storm will strike land is a \"coin flip.\" The latest models, he said, show landfall somewhere between New Jersey and Rhode Island.\nIf the eye bears down on New Jersey, Vagell said winds could whip waves in Long Island Sound as high as 30 feet.\nClick here to view the latest storm reports and forecasts from the National Hurricane Center.

Sandy is following an unusual route, remaining over water and gaining power as a result.\n\"I don't think a storm has come in from that direction since the '50s,\" he said. \"Depending on where it makes landfall, it could be worse than Irene.\"\n\"We will prepare for the absolute worst and hope for the best,\" Rick Fontana, New Haven's deputy director of Emergency Management Operations, said during a phone interview Thursday night. \"I can only look at what the scientists are saying, and I take it all pretty serious. There is some significance to this storm.\"\nFontana said the odd combination of tropical hurricane and polar cold front, not seen, he said, since 1991, is creating some level of uncertainty. He's looking forward to the possibility of rain, hail or even snow.\n\"I'm not a doom and gloom kind of guy,\" Fontana said. \"But we have to take this serious.\"\nFontana echoed the sentiments of Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, who said in a statement Thursday that residents should begin preparing now.\n\"Just as the state is monitoring and preparing, the public should do the same,\" Malloy said. \"Some models predict that Sandy may move onshore somewhere in New England early next week. Although we are not certain the storm will impact the state, we need to be prepared. That means everyone, especially the state's utility companies.\"\nFontana spent Thursday making sure communication lines were open in New Haven, and that equipment was prepped and ready. Officials in other towns were doing the same.\nEast Haven Fire Chief and Emergency Management Director Douglas Jackson said the fire department has started getting all their equipment ready whether it's for rescues, clearing trees or pumping out water. Jackson said he's been in communication with the state and other officials to get as ready as they can.\nThursday, Jackson said he and others were down in the area of Cosey Beach Avenue, where homes are still missing or in the process of being rebuilt after Tropical Storm Irene ravaged the area over a year ago.\n\"It's still unsure what we're going to get, if we're going to get really nailed in a storm worse than Irene last year, it's not known for sure yet,\" he said.\nIn New Haven, Fontana said officials learned from last year's lessons, when Irene and a freak October snowstorm caused widespread power outages across the state. Since then, Malloy put together a two-storm panel, tasked with improving the state's emergency responses. It helped, according to Fontana.\n\"Based on the models and the tracking, it could replicate what Irene did,\" he said. \"The planning process and response process is going to be better than last year.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It packed winds above 140 miles per hour and killed 113 people in the U.S.\nBut powerful winds aren't the only danger. Storm surge -- water pushed onshore by the force of the winds -- is the greatest threat to life, responsible for nearly half of hurricane fatalities, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.\nFor the first time, the National Weather Service issued an official storm surge warning, covering most of the Texas coastline. Surge levels could rise up to 12 feet north of Padre Island.\nThat still wasn't enough to get Amy Watson to evacuate and leave the restaurant she manages.\n\"I don't want looters to come in after it hits and all that.

By late Saturday afternoon, Harvey will weaken and slow down and will make its way back to the coastline as a Category 2, Padgett said.\nAs it moves its way toward the Southeast and possibly out on the open water, Harvey could possibly restrengthen going into Tuesday, Padgett said.\nThe storm surge could hit up to 6-10 feet in some areas, but the big concern is the flooding. Some areas could have as much as 25-30 inches of rain. The rain will spread its way into parts of Louisiana as the track of Harvey starts to move its way northeast. As of Thursday, New Orleans is facing 4 inches of rain, but that number could go up, Padgett said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

New snowfall has also covered Mahore in the Reasi area and Gulmarg, resulting in tranquil, white landscapes on Thursday. With the first light snowfall of the season, Srinagar, the capital of Jammu and Kashmir, is blanketed in snow and has a beautiful winter backdrop. According to Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, the Baramulla-Banihal train service in Jammu and Kashmir continues despite persistently heavy snowfall, demonstrating the railway ministry’s steadfast determination. The tribal areas of Kasol experienced the first heavy snowfall of the year, resulting in the closure of 134 roads, including four national highways.\nWhile rain battered the plains in Jammu and Kashmir, several higher altitudes, particularly those along the Zojila axis on the Srinagar-Leh route, saw new snowfall.\nSnowfall has begun at two more beautiful tourist destinations: Dalhousie in Chamba district and Manali in Kullu district. This is the first snowfall of the season in these locations.\nAfter Tuesday night’s severe snowfall, some 300 visitors were reportedly rescued by police from the vicinity of the Atal Tunnel, a highway tunnel beneath the Rohtang Pass in the eastern Pir Panjal range of the Himalayas in upper Manali. There was one HRTC bus and maybe fifty cars carrying the tourists.\n“High-altitude areas of Lahaul and Spiti, Chamba, Mandi, Kullu, Kinnaur, Sirmaur and Shimla districts have been experiencing moderate snow,” said the official. Lower areas of the state including Dharamsala, Shimla, Solan, Nahan and Mandi received mild to moderate rain, bringing the temperature down considerably. Farmers and hotel owners in the area are happy because of the snow and rain.\nTourism industry representatives are also happy after the snow in Shimla’s nearby areas and in Manali.\n“We are hopeful that the good spell of snow will attract the tourists,” said an elated hotelier in Manali. First-time visitors are encouraging people to take in the singular experience and see the “heavenly” grandeur of nature in the Himalayas, mesmerised by the captivating snowfall. Kufri has grown to be a popular destination for travellers drawn by the enchanted charm of newly fallen snow. The now is attracting many youngsters who are headed to the hills to experience the beauty of the fresh snowfall.\nDifferent parts of the world have seen different temperatures over the last twenty-four hours.

There was also no repeat of Haiyan's tsunami-like storm surges.\nHagupit's sustained winds dropped to 140 kilometres an hour on Sunday, then continued to weaken after leaving the eastern Philippine islands and passing over the Sibuyan Sea south-east of Manila.\nIts winds were down to 110 kilometres an hour on Monday morning and were expected to weaken further as it passed just south of the capital in the evening, according to local weather agency Pagasa.\nHowever, Pagasa said the winds were still capable of doing major damage to homes, and heavy rains were expected within Hagupit's 450-kilometre-wide weather front.\n- Climate change -\nThe Philippines endures about 20 major storms a year, many of them deadly.\nBut scientists say the storms are becoming more violent and unpredictable because of climate change.\nGreenpeace International director Kumi Naidoo called on United Nations negotiators currently meeting in Peru to take note of Hagupit and act with more urgency to hammer out a world pact on global warming.\n\"Nature does not negotiate. We actually have to wake up and smell the coffee,\" Naidoo, who is in the Philippines to \"bear witness\" to Hagupit, told AFP.\n\"We need to understand that we are running out of time.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Almost every big summit, every talk between nations isn’t incomplete without strategizing discussion on how to overcome climate change issues. Environmentalists are asking for more cut in the emissions rate which is certainly the need of the hour. Scientists are coming up with new and sooner deadlines to cut our emissions before the effects become irreversible. But everything that is being said and all the targets that are being set laid down are for to cut down the CO2 emissions only. Environmentalists are completely ignoring the contribution of other gases to in Global warming.\nGlobal warming has rightly been recognized as a biggest challenge to our future. Environmentalists are doing a tremendous job by putting pressure on global leaders to work for cutting on emissions level and by spreading awareness about the greenhouse gases against it among the masses. But again the environment lobby has pushed for reforms only against the CO2 emissions. They have completely ignored all other kinds of gases which too are responsible for global warming.I am convinced cutting emissions from vehicles and industries need to be a priority but overlooking other kinds of green house gases can prove disastrous. Cars emit CO2 but along with that aerosols as well which act ascoolant though not for a long time but CO2 stays on, so in short term it is not dangerous. But there are gases which are many a times more potent of causing warming and more quickly as well.\nOne of the most important sources of non-CO2 warming is methane and its major source is animal agriculture. Methane is 21 times more capable of causing warming than CO2. Since pre-industrial times, where the concentration of CO2 has risen 31%, the concentration of methane in environment has more than doubled. And human triggered methane emission amounts to one and a half times the natural emission while for CO2 the same figure stands at 3%. So the imbalance that has been created by us in the concentration of methane in atmosphere is massive. Moreover, the increased concentration of methane in airspace above stimulates microbial decay of organic matter in wetlands- the primary natural source of methane, thus compounding our problems.\nThere are numerous sources of methane like coal mining, landfills but the major source is animal agriculture which alone is responsible for 100 million tones of methane a year. In the last five years, the global consumption of meat has increased five folds and is still on a rise. About 85% of the gas is produced in the digestive tracts of livestock and the remaining 15% of methane is released from gigantic lagoons where organic farm wastes are stored which itself are under attack these days for being a large source of water pollution. By turning to vegetarianism we can significantly control our methane gas emissions which the numbers suggest is a significant contributor to the global warming.\nTurning vegetarian is a small price to pay for preventing climate change as it does not n’t demand severe alterations in one’s life. Vegetarianism is full of options capable of substituting non-veg products without harming or even having any miniscule effect on one’s health. The efforts can be done at more local level, and even on by an individual level. Even the environmentalists find themselves helpless in fighting CO2 emissions with their effort being reduced to just petitioning or asking citizens to switch off their lights. The fight against CO2 involves fighting against big industrialists and lobbyists and none’s expecting any positive news soon. Every country is trying to shirk its responsibility as fight against CO2 emission can derail the growth of a country. At In these times if turning into a vegetarian diet can help then it must be propagated. Government should consider discouraging meat consumption by increasing taxes on them. For a country like India, which is still developing, this can be the way it can give to the global battle against climate change.\n[Image courtesy: http://www.flickr.com/photos/faeryboots/3234117971/]","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This year might be especially good with no moon to spoil the show and at least 25 meteors per hour can be expected when the meteor shower hits its peak. Of course, this is all predicated on the idea that skies will be mostly clear and there is some hope for good viewing conditions in the Mid-Atlantic region as the weekend weather looks pretty decent from this vantage point.\nThe meteors for this event will streak out of the constellation Orion and the overall shower setting is framed by constellations Taurus and Gemini and, in this particular year, Venus and Jupiter will form a bright triangle with the bright star called Sirius (the Dog Star) in the pre-dawn eastern sky.\nOne of the characteristics of this particular annual meteor shower is that the meteoroids from Halley’s Comet travel at very highs speeds (148,000 mph) with only the November Leonids being faster. Speed is important because fast meteors have a tendency to explode and these “fireballs” can occasionally leave incandescent streams of debris in their wake that linger for minutes. In fact, the “meteor smoke” can be twisted by upper air winds into intricate shapes that may be quite interesting.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Earth acts as a greenhouse that helps to capture the required amount of the Sun’s heat, and it also radiates out the unwanted heat into outer space. Gases like carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, etc. form the greenhouse gases that help to maintain Earth’s temperature. The adequate amount of greenhouse gases helps Earth to remain fresh and it also helps to maintain an average temperature for the survival of ling organisms on Earth.\nHuman activities are responsible mainly for the emission of greenhouse gases, thus, causing global warming. An increase in the human population has led to a rise in the number of activities that emit a large number of greenhouse gases. Carbon dioxide, Methane, Nitrous oxide, Sulphur hexafluoride, and other Fluorinated gases are the primary gases that add up to the cause of global warming.\nPollution, an increase in the number of vehicles, animal agriculture, burning of fossil fuels, the use of individual appliances, etc. are the main reasons that lead to the emission ...\n... of greenhouse gases. Due to our practices, we have led to an increase in the number of greenhouse gases. This has resulted in a rise in the temperature of Earth.\nGlobal warming is raising the temperature of Earth at a tremendous rate, thus, making it difficult for living organisms to survive especially wildlife:\nHabitat Disruption – Habitat disruption is caused when animals fail to get their habitat due to climatic changes. Different animals need different kinds of habitats to survive but, due to global warming, their habitat is disturbed. This is because the climate gets warmer and It also does not allow some specific species to survive as they can only survive in cold temperatures.\nShifting life cycles – Phenology has recorded that global warming has not only led to the habitat disruption of animals but also has an effect on their life cycle. This has led to the shift of various cyclical and seasonal events in the life of animals.\nExtinction of some species – Global warming is leading to the extinction of various species that can only survive in a cold atmosphere. Heat waves, forest fires, and droughts have caused some plants and animal species to get endangered.\nEffects both wildlife as well as humans – The presence of animals is compulsory for the survival of mankind. Plants and animals are the main elements of Earth. Therefore, the effect on wildlife due to global warming will also have an impact on us.\nDue to this reason, when an extra amount of heat is added to any one system, it raises the global climate. So, changes in temperature change the great patterns of the environment:\nDue to the overheating of water bodies, more water evaporates and converts into clouds. This causes the scarcity of water and also results in several calamities.\nGlobal warming leads to climate change and therefore results in energy-intensive storms like hurricanes and typhoons.\nAn increase in temperature makes the atmosphere warmer. It results in the melting of mountain snow, Polar ice caps, and other snow from the Earth. It leads to an increase in the water level, therefore, increasing the chances of floods and tsunamis.\nGlobal warming changes the patterns of wind that bring monsoons, rain, and snow. It leads to an increase in the chances of drought.\nToday, the whole world is facing the problem of global warming. It is an international issue that needs to be resolved as soon as possible. Nowadays, Boarding schools in India also make their students aware of such global issues. So that they use fossil fuel judiciously.\nEcole Globale is one of the best International girls boarding schools in Dehradun. Students are enrolled here from several other nations\nEnvironment Articles1. Characteristics Of Heat-reflecting Paint Systems\n2.

The official start of the 2019 hurricane season is just hours away, beginning tomorrow, June 1st.\nAre you ready? That’s the question posed by local emergency management officials as we forge into the new hurricane season.\nExperts predict there will be 12 to 14 storms this season with five to seven of them forecast to become hurricanes. Of those, two to four are predicted to become major hurricanes.\nYou may remember last year we took you on a ride with Keesler Air Force Base’s Hurricane Hunters and flew you into the eye of Hurricane Michael before it made landfall in Florida. Hurricanes Michael and Florence battered coastlines here in the U.S.\nJust two years ago, Hurricane Nate made landfall here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, but its impact was minimal. Harrison County EMA Director Rupert Lacy said, “The humbling side of this year is that we’re having the 50th anniversary of Camille in August. So, we live in paradise, but we must be prepared for what Mother Nature may throw at us during the summer months into the fall.”\nDon’t forget ‘Your Hurricane Authority Special 2019’ will air later today at 6:30 p.m. on NBC and FOX. It will give you an in depth look at this year’s predictions and let you hear from hurricane experts from the National Hurricane Center.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The resort’s international airport remained closed due to power failure, as were two major highways, in the wake of Manuel.\nIn Veracruz state, along Mexico’s Gulf coast, 12 people died on Monday after their bus and two nearby homes were buried by a mountain landslide near the town of Xaltepec, Governor Javier Duarte told reporters.\nAcross the state, 23,000 people were evacuated from their homes and 9,000 remained in emergency shelters, according to a post on Duarte’s Twitter account.\nPublic school classes in Veracruz were canceled for Tuesday.\nIngrid, which weakened from a hurricane earlier on Monday, prompted Pemex to evacuate three platforms at its offshore Arenque field, operated by British oil services firm Petrofac, and close 24 wells in its onshore Ebano-Panuco field, a company official said.\nOn Pemex’s Twitter page, the company said it had activated “emergency procedures” at its Francisco Madero refinery on the Gulf coast of northern Tamaulipas state, but did not provide details. The refinery has a processing capacity of 180,000 barrels per day, including crude from both the Arenque and Panuco fields.\nIngrid maintained maximum winds of 35 miles per hour (55 kph) and was expected to further weaken as it moved overland.\nThe tropical depression continued to dump heavy rains as it churned 6 miles per hour (9 kph) toward the west.\nThe NHC said isolated areas could see as much as 25 inches of rain, particularly in mountainous terrain, resulting in additional life-threatening flash floods and mud slides.\nThe Mexican government had discontinued all coastal warnings and watches by Monday afternoon.\nManuel’s maximum sustained winds stood at 30 mph (45 kph) as it dissipated over west-central Mexico, although heavy rainfall is expected to continue along the country’s southwestern coast.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Fortunately there are a few warm-up acts between now and then to sharpen your skywatching skills.\nSunday night and Monday morning offer an ideal opportunity to head outside and take a shot at catching a Bootid meteor. The June Bootid meteor shower is considered a minor meteor shower that’s weaker than the bigger name showers, but conditions are ideal in 2022 and there’s always a chance the Bootids could blow up.\nThis year’s peak of activity for the shower is centered on June 27, which is also when the moon is new, meaning it will be darkened in the sky and won’t wash out any meteors that do appear.\nAmong astronomers, the June Bootids are notoriously unpredictable. Most years the shower is weak, producing few – if any – visible slow-moving meteors. But every now and then we get a Bootid outburst resulting in a flurry of a hundred or more visible meteors per hour.\nSuch outbursts have been recorded in 1998, 1916, 1921 and 1927, making the shower the celestial equivalent of buying a skywatching lottery ticket. Although, really the odds are much better than any lottery.\nThe ideal time to look for Bootids is just as the sky becomes fully dark Sunday or Monday evening. This is when the radiant that the meteors will seem to emanate from is highest in the sky.\nThe source of these particular meteors can be traced to the comet 7P/Pons-Winnecke, which orbits the Sun once every 6.37 years. Each time it passes through the inner solar system it leaves behind a stream of dust and debris that collides with Earth’s atmosphere every June.\nIf you’re feeling lucky, head out around twilight and give your eyes time to adjust. You’ll also want to allow at least an hour of total observation time to give yourself any real chance of seeing anything.\nChoose a location far from light pollution and with a broad view of the sky. If you can, orient yourself toward the constellation Bootes, but this isn’t really critical if you have a wide enough view of the darkened dome overhead.\nRelax, enjoy some time outside and hope that 2022 is a lucky year…","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It will be shut down permanently in July 2018. The pollution control boards of Uttar Pradesh and Haryana have been directed to monitor pollution from the remaining thermal power plants – Dadri in Uttar Pradesh and Jhajjar in Haryana. This also includes the management of fly ash from the plants,” an EPCA statement said.\nThe decision was taken after EPCA Chairman Bhure Lal and its member Sunita Narain, also the director general of the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), took a review of air quality in Delhi\n“Difficult situations demand tough responses and solutions and the Delhi-NCR region is faced with a really difficult situation each winter when air pollution levels spiral out of control.

But a decision regarding that has not been taken as yet.\nNarain said parking a parking policy was still being worked out and if air pollution worsens further and touches more alarming proportions, “cars will have to be off the roads”.\nThe environment body has further advised the residents of Delhi-NCR to use face masks whenever possible. It has also raised concerns over the existing landfill sites in the capital.\nBased on its assessment, EPCA said it had predicted that October 20, the day after Diwali, will be a very bad day for the residents of the capital in terms of air quality.\nThe wind, according to EPCA, would be south-easterly, which would add moisture to Delhi’s air and thereby increase the concentration of pollutants by not letting them disperse.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The economic impact of this health loss due to lost productivity was huge, resulting in 1.4 per cent loss in the country’s GDP in 2019, which is equivalent to Rs 260,000 crore (US$ 36.8 billion), a new study has said.\nThe India State-Level Disease Burden Initiative published a scientific paper on Tuesday on the health and economic impact of air pollution in Lancet Planetary Health, which documents the trends in health loss due to air pollution and its economic impact in every state of India, using the latest improved methods and data.\nThe findings in the paper highlight that while the disease burden due to household air pollution is reducing in India, the same has increased due to ambient outdoor air pollution.\nThe economic loss due to air pollution as a percentage of the state GDP was higher in the northern and central India states, with the highest in Uttar Pradesh (2.2 per cent of GDP) and Bihar (2 per cent of GDP).\nOf the total deaths in each state, an analysis shows that the percentage of fatalities attributable to air pollution was highest in Rajasthan (21.2 per cent), followed by West Bengal (20.8 per cent), Uttar Pradesh (19.5 per cent), Haryana (19 per cent), Bihar(18.8 per cent ), Gujarat (18.9 per cent), Uttarakand (18.6 per cent) and Delhi (18.2 per cent).\n“Besides a roughly estimated expenditure of 0.4 per cent of the GDP on treatment of air pollution-related diseases, the health and economic impact of air pollution is highest in the less developed states of India, an inequity that should be addressed,” Prof Lalit Dandona, director of the India State-Level Disease Burden Initiative, who is National Chair of Population Health at ICMR, professor at Public Health Foundation of India, and senior author of the paper, told The Indian Express\nDandona pointed out that the high burden of death and disease due to air pollution and its adverse economic impact from loss of output could impede India’s aspiration to be a $5-trillion economy by 2024.“Improved methods in this paper have led to a higher estimate of the impact of air pollution on health and disease in India than previously estimated,” he said.\nIf air pollution is eliminated, then 18 per cent deaths could be avoided, said Prof Dandona.\n“This is the first paper that has given the economic impact due to air pollution. It is important to realise that there is economic loss due to the health effects of air pollution,” said Dr Sundeep Salvi, founder of Pulmo Care Research and Education, and one of the co- authors of the paper.\nDirector General of ICMR, Prof Balram Bhargava, said the findings show that while 40 per cent of the disease burden due to air pollution is from lung diseases, the remaining 60 per cent is from ischemic heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and neonatal deaths related to preterm birth, highlighting the broad-ranging impact of air pollution on human health.\nAccording to Prof Kalpana Balakrishnan, Department of Environmental Health Engineering, Sri Ramachandra University, Chennai , there is an expanded battery of health outcomes that are now recognised as attributable to air pollution. “Air pollution has been identified as a risk factor and a multifactorial approach is required to address control strategies,” she said.\nThe findings reported in the paper are part of the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019. The analytical methods of this study have been refined over a quarter century of scientific work, which has been reported in over 16,000 peer-reviewed publications, making it the most widely used approach globally for disease burden estimation. These methods enable standardised comparisons of health loss caused by different diseases and risk factors between different geographies, sexes, and age groups, and over time in a unified framework, said Prof Sagnik Dey, Centre for Atmospheric Sciences at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi.\nMeanwhile, household air pollution is decreasing in India, resulting in 64 per cent reduction in the death rate attributable to it from 1990 to 2019, whereas the death rate from outdoor ambient air pollution has increased during this period by 115 per cent.\n📣 The Indian Express is now on Telegram.

Active geomagnetic conditions (Kp4) were expected but the solar wind conditions were so impressive it was enough for us to reach the moderate G2 geomagnetic storm threshold which equals a Kp of 6 and some impressive auroral displays around the globe.\nTuesday, 17 April 2018 - 13:57 UTC\nSolar activity has been pretty boring lately with no solar flares or sunspot regions really worth mentioning. A tiny region with a reverse magnetic polarity did appear a few days ago which likely belonged to the next solar cycle but it faded away pretty quickly. It is normal for sunspot regions from two solar cycles to overlap around solar minimum but it does show we are closing in on true solar minimum. This combined with the fact that we are hardly seeing any sunspots or flaring activity at the moment means this solar cycle might be a shorter than average cycle.\nFriday, 6 April 2018 - 19:07 UTC\nA familiar coronal hole has returned!

Still, the most notable effect is the Northern Lights, which usually follow a few days after solar flares erupt. The flares bring a barrage of electrons that interact with oxygen and nitrogen in Earth's magnetic field that surrounds the outside of our planet.\n\"The production of the colors is very similar to what you see in a neon sign,\" Don Hampton, a researcher at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks, told FOX Weather. \"It's basically just an electrical current.\"\nAs the electrons hit the oxygen and nitrogen molecules, it \"dumps in a little energy,\" Hampton says. \"And then (the molecules) relax back down to ground state. When they do that, they release a little bit of light.\"\nLEARN FROM FOX WEATHER: 7 Things To Know About The Northern Lights\nSpace weather models predict the storm will peak Saturday evening and night with the potential for the lights to be high above the horizon as far south as Seattle, Chicago and Boston, and visible on the horizon as far south as Oregon, St. Louis and New York.\nHow's the weather looking?\nSkies look clear around Western Washington Saturday night, though it will be chilly! Temperatures will drop into the 40s not long after dark.\nWant to see the Northern Lights? Get away from city lights\nLight pollution from nearby urban areas will make it difficult to spot the aurora.\n\"When (the aurora) are fairly dim, it's harder for your eyes to see the colors and distinguish between city lights,\" Hampton said. \"You want to be out of town a couple of miles. If you can be in a farm field or something, look off to the north with fewer lights.\"\nPopular places around here are up in the Cascade foothills (assuming you can find an unobstructed northern horizon) or along the waterfront north of Seattle to get north of the metro area city lights.\nYou'll also want to make sure the sun is well below the horizon -- think 11 p.m. to 3 a.m. -- so the skies are as dark as they can be, and hope a bright moon isn't around to blast the sky with competing for light.\nBeware: The Northern Lights will look better on camera\nIf the aurora display is relatively dim, it may only appear to your eyes as a faint green or milky haze, depending on the strength of the show. If the storm really gets going, more dazzling greens and purples may be seen with just your eyes, provided they've adjusted to the darkness.\nYou can bring a camera, set it on long exposure and keep it steady, and the lights will pop out. Just remember, cameras are much better than human eyes at picking up the color at night, so photos you see of the aurora on social media may not match what you might see in the same spot.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But those shimmering sheets of colored lights are the product of violent collisions between Earth's atmosphere and particles from the Sun.\nThe beautiful lights are just the visible product of these collisions — the kinetic and thermal energy released, invisible to the naked eye, are no less important. Understanding the contribution that aurora make to the total amount of energy that enters and leaves Earth's geospace system — referred to as auroral forcing — is one of the major goals of the NASA-funded Auroral Zone Upwelling Rocket Experiment, or AZURE. The more we learn about auroras, the more we understand about the fundamental processes that drive near-Earth space — a region that is increasingly part of the human domain, home not only to astronauts but also communications and GPS signals that can affect those of us on the ground on a daily basis.\nAZURE is the first of eight sounding rocket missions launching over the next two years as part of an international collaboration of scientists known as The Grand Challenge Initiative – Cusp. These missions will launch from the Andøya and Svalbard rocket ranges in Norway to study the processes occurring inside the Earth's polar cusp — where the planet's magnetic field lines bend down into the atmosphere and allow particles from space to intermingle with those of Earthly origin — and nearby auroral oval, which AZURE will focus on.\nAZURE will study the flow of particles in the ionosphere, the electrically charged layer of the atmosphere that acts as Earth's interface to space, focusing specifically on the E and F regions. The E region — so-named by early radio pioneers that discovered the region was electrically charged, and so could reflect radio waves — lies between 56 to 93 miles above Earth's surface. The F region resides just above it, between 93 to 310 miles altitude.\nThe E and F regions contain free electrons that have been ejected from their atoms by the energizing input of the Sun's rays, a process called photoionization. After nightfall, without the energizing input of the Sun to keep them separated, electrons recombine with the positively charged ions they left behind, lowering the regions' overall electron density. The daily cycle of ionization and recombination makes the E and F regions especially turbulent and complex.\nAZURE will focus specifically on measuring the vertical winds in these regions, which create a tumultuous particle soup that re-distributes the energy, momentum and chemical constituents of the atmosphere.\nExisting wind measurements from ground-based instruments show evidence of significant structure at scales between 6 miles and 60 miles wide in both the charged particle drifts and the neutral winds. But so far, the in-situ scientific measurements of winds have been limited to a small set of altitudes — and already those measurements don't fit with what we would have predicted.\nTo better understand the forces at play, in early March the AZURE team will launch two sounding rockets near-simultaneously from the Andøya Space Center in Norway. Waiting to launch until the conditions are just right, the rockets will fly up into space, making measurements of the atmospheric density and temperature with instruments on the rockets and deploying visible tracers, trimethyl aluminum (TMA) and a barium/strontium mixture, which ionizes when exposed to sunlight.\nThese mixtures create colorful clouds that allow researchers to track the flow of neutral and charged particles, respectively. The tracers will be released at altitudes 71 to 155 miles high and pose no hazard to residents in the region.\nBy tracking the movement of these colorful clouds via ground-based photography and triangulating their moment-by-moment position in three dimensions, AZURE will provide valuable data on the vertical and horizontal flow of particles in two key regions of the ionosphere over a range of different altitudes.\nSuch measurements are critical if we are to truly understand the effects of the mysterious yet beautiful aurora. The results will be key to a better understanding of the effects of auroral forcing on the atmosphere, including how and where the auroral energy is deposited.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The reason for this sensitivity is that new slabs are overlying a weak faceted snowpack in many locations. This will not only cause windslabs to be more reactive to human triggers, but also be reactive for a longer period of time.\nWindslabs will continue to become deeper as winds continue 12/3 and are likely already be 2 feet deep in certain locations like lee side of ridge lines or cross loaded gullies. As wind slabs settle and stiffen they may become more stubborn to triggers, but will have the ability to propagate longer distances. Cautious terrain choices and careful terrain management will be necessary today to travel in areas recently affected by wind. Watch for signs of windslab that include hard snow over soft, shooting cracks, collapsing and rounded pillowed snow surfaces. Avoid traveling on large lee slopes steeper than 32°.\nThe cold and dry weather in November has left us with a weak faceted snowpack. In areas protected from the wind there is 10-20 inches of dry unconsolidated powder. The most important thing to pay attention to at the current time is how stiff or slabby the surface snow is. The stiffer the surface snow is, the higher the likelihood will be for you to trigger an avalanche on terrain steeper than 30°. In areas where the snow surface is dry and unconsolidated (no slab) the stability has been found to be better although structure is still poor, and human triggered avalanches are possible. As snow surfaces stiffen human triggered avalanches become likely. Keep an eye on your partners and only expose one person at a time to avalanche prone slopes.\nDon’t expect to find the same snow stability across the forecast area.

(AP) Federal weather officials said a March 1 tornado outbreak that struck Alabama and Georgia, killing eight students huddled inside Enterprise High School in Alabama, showed the need for a \"hardened safe room\" for use during storms.\nIn its report Thursday, the National Weather Service said Enterprise school officials and students followed appropriate safety measures before and during the tornado, but the storm demonstrated the need for a safe-room shelter.\nBesides the deaths in Enterprise, the tornado outbreak killed six people in a mobile home park near Newton, Ga., and five others elsewhere in Alabama and Georgia.\nThe NWS report said a total of 31 verified tornadoes struck 45 counties in Georgia and south Alabama, including 13 packing winds of 113 mph or stronger. The deadliest hit Enterprise with 200 mph winds.\nIn the immediate aftermath of the storm, Enterprise school officials were criticized for not releasing the students and staff before or during the tornado. But the federal report defended that decision.\n\"Dismissing the students could have been just as dangerous,\" said NWS meteorologist Glenn Lussky of La Crosse, Wis., who led the tornado study. \"Tornado warnings were in place the entire time, and the team agreed that shelter in place was the best response.\"\nIn a statement, Lussky said, \"Hardened safe rooms are essential for tornado safety. This is perhaps the only thing that could have made a difference for the students in Enterprise.\"\nHardened safe rooms, lined and topped with concrete and without windows, are designed to withstand severe sustained winds and wind gusts.\nEnterprise High School students displaced by the tornado are using classrooms at a community college. Officials hope to break ground next September on a new high school that will have some classrooms with interior shutters that lock during storms. Two elementary schools also will have the shutter-equipped classrooms with walls built to withstand 200 mph winds.\n\"We refer to them as tornado shelters,\" said Bob Tomberlin, an assistant to the Enterprise schools superintendent.\nSince the March 1 tornadoes, the weather service has moved from a county-based system of warnings to a more geographically specific storm-based warning system. It gives more precise information about the location of severe weather and the direction it's expected to move.\nTesting revealed that storm-based warnings would have reduced the warning coverage area by 58.4%. Still, the high school and the city of Enterprise would have been under a warning for the same amount of time.\nLussky said three successive supercell thunderstorms moved over or near Enterprise during that time.\n\"We believe the warnings and response would have been the same under storm-based warnings,\" he said. \"This is just one of those cases where everyone did everything they could. The only thing left is the hardened safe room.\"\nThe NWS report said hardened safe rooms are not practical for inside mobile homes, which can be blown off foundations by storm winds. The tornado study team concluded that a necessary component for tornado safety in a trailer park is a hardened safe room easily accessed and shared by the community.\nCopyright 2007 The Associated Press.

Another chapter will be added to that story this weekend as Comet Wirtanen will pass between the Pleiades  and Hyades  star cluster on Saturday and Sunday night during the annual Geminid meteor shower .\nNormally comets are not visible unless seen through a telescope, however the Comet 46P/Wirtanen  can now be seen in the sky.\nThe comet will grow and become brighter as it makes its way north throughout December. On Sunday it will be closest to Earth at a distance of 11.5 million kilometres.\nOver the weekend on the 13th and 14th, the shower as a whole will be at it’s peak.\nIt will have 120 meteors per hour. Particles that are the size of sand from asteroid 3200 Phaethon , a possible dead comet, will vapourize as they hit the atmosphere at 35 kilometres per second.\nTo see the maximum number of meteors, people should watch after midnight when the constellation is highest in the sky.\nGary Boyle, an astronomer from Ottawa, says all meteor showers are different in the amount of meteors we see per shower.\n“Meteors are generated from comets. As comets round the sun they leave debris as materials blow off the comet, and that debris lingers in space, so as the earth goes around the sun once every year we tend to go around these debris fields just like a car races across a finish line,” says Boyle.\nEach comet gives off a different amount of debris, and the Geminids  give off 120 meteors per hour creating a big debris field. Boyle says comets are about the size of a grain of sand or a single pea.\n“There could even be fireballs from the bigger chunks. Comets are different just like people. They act different ways … it’s well worth going out to see,” he says.\nThe Geminid meteor shower got it’s name from the Gemini constellation. The “id” in Geminid goes back to mythology meaning the kids. The shower is all the “kids” of the constellation.\nBoyle described the meteor shower as, “just like going down a country road in the dark of night with your headlights, and it seems like the snowflakes are coming at you like a meteor shower and it comes from that one point, then it comes over the car onto the sides. That is called a radiant in space, and where the meteors seem to be coming from is from the constellation Gemini.”\nBoyle says the meteoroids can vary in size, “The big flashes are the bigger ones like the meteoroid that entered over Russia 5 years ago. It was the size of a school bus, it lit up the day and caused damage,” he told QNet News.\nThe Geminids are known to have fireballs, and these particles come off an asteroid or a dead comet.\n“In this meteor shower we’re brushing up against the debris field, so that’s why their entry speed is only 35 kilometers per second as they vapourize in the upper atmosphere … that’s why everything for this shower is great. The meteors have a slow entry speed, and even the colour. People might see yellow in the fireballs.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Although, wetland methane production and emission have been studied for over 30 years, tree methane emissions have been completely overlooked resulting in a lack of information on the quantity and processes of these emissions.\nTherefore, in this study, the researchers will use 1) tracer techniques to understand methane production and movement in trees by injecting labelled methane and labelled substrates on which methane producing microorganisms feed, 2) controlled tree sapling laboratory experiments to understand the role of trees in methane cycling and 3) the ratio of two naturally occurring carbon isotopes to study how methane is produced, consumed and altered as it moves through the tree.\nThis will be the first multi-year study to establish a fundamental understanding of methane emissions from trees and so will inform other research communities which could help in in assessing mitigation efforts to address future climate change models.\nDr Pangala said:\n“Our work so far has not only revealed the importance of tree methane emissions globally but also highlighted our limited knowledge of the mechanisms driving these emissions. I hypothesise that wetland trees act as methane bioreactors, i.e., trees stimulate and accelerate both the production of methane within their root zones and escape of methane produced in the root zone to the atmosphere through their stem surfaces.\nTherefore, in these forested wetlands, trees play a more central role and soils on the other hand only play a subsidiary role. Such a finding could transform our understanding of methane dynamics in forested wetlands.”\nRead more about Dr Pangala's research","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This year, it’s set to reach its peak on August 12 to 13.\n“If the sky permits, the famous Perseids meteor shower will be observed with its peak in the late evening and early morning hours…with at least 50 or more meteors observed during peak time,” said PAGASA.\nMeteors are best observed with clear skies free from moonlight or light pollution. While we can still expect to enjoy a light show this week, it might be difficult to observe other fainter meteors due to the waxing gibbous Moon, which “appears more than half lighted, but less than full,” according to EarthSky.\nThe Perseids meteor shower radiates from the constellation Perseus. It’s an annual occurrence often expected to happen around July 17 to August 24, when our planet passes through the orbital path of the Comet Swift-Tuttle.\nAs per EarthSky, “Debris from this comet litters the comet’s orbit, but we don’t really get into the thick of the comet rubble until after the first week of August. The bits and pieces from Comet Swift-Tuttle slam into the Earth’s upper atmosphere at some 130,000 miles (210,000 km) per hour, lighting up the nighttime with fast-moving Perseid meteors.”\nFor a good chance to witness the Perseids, the astronomy website suggests that watchers find a dark, wide-open sky. Don’t be impatient either and make sure to give yourself an hour to observe the event. EarthSky explains, “meteors in meteor showers come in spurts and are interspersed with lulls. Remember, your eyes can take as long as 20 minutes to adapt to the darkness of night. So don’t rush the process.”\nPreview is now on Quento!

Hardin County Judge Wayne McDaniel on Monday evening said he spoke with most of the mayors and other officials of area cities regarding potential evacuations. The group plans to make a decision on whether an evacuation will be mandated b 2 p.m. today.\n“However, I reiterate that anyone who wishes to evacuate and has the means to do so, does not have to wait on an evacuation order,” he said in a Facebook post. “Making the decision tomorrow gives us more time to ascertain a more accurate tropical forecast and gives Jefferson and Orange Counties’ residents time to evacuate on Tuesday so the highways should not be as congested if Hardin County citizens are ordered to evacuate on Wednesday.”\nBut potentially the biggest change is along the Louisiana border with impacts in Newton and Orange counties.\nAs of last night, the National Weather Service Lake Charles expected storm surge from 4 to 6 feet in parts of Orange County. However, this morning, much of the areas expected to get storm surge could see more than 9 feet. And while levels are expected to be lower, there are almost no parts of Pinehurst, Orange, West Orange or Bridge City not expected to be impacted by at least 1 foot of storm surge. However, most projections are closer to 3 or 6 feet.\nAnd along the Sabine River, which separates Texas and Louisiana, expectations for storm surge greater than 9 feet stretch all the way up past the Newton County line.

Its center lay 110 miles west and a little south of Cabo San Lucas, the resort at the peninsula’s tip that is a favorite haunt of Hollywood celebrities.\nThe National Hurricane Center in Miami forecast on Tuesday afternoon that Jimena would skirt the western coast of the peninsula as it moved north and slightly west through the end of the week. But the center warned that the increasing rainfall — between 5 and 10 inches across the southern half of Baja and parts of western Mexico — “could cause life-threatening flash floods and mudslides.”\nLuis Armando Diáz, the government secretary for the state of Baja California Sur, told reporters after a noon meeting of the state’s civil protection council that some 10,000 people lived in areas that were at risk for flooding or mudslides. Five thousand people had been evacuated and 2,000 of them were staying in shelters.\nSince Monday, officials have been urging the residents of the shantytowns perched on the hills of Los Cabos, as the area is known, to move to safety. When storms strike the region, torrents of rainwater roar down the mountains, destroying the precarious shacks that house many of the growing city’s new arrivals.\nThe storm’s path appeared to spare Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo the worst of its winds, but rain fell steadily from leaden skies for much of the day.\nStill, the hurricane center warned that “a dangerous storm surge along with battering waves will produce significant coastal flooding” along the peninsula.\n“What I am most worried about is the level of the sea,” Lionel Alvarez, the manager of the luxury resort, Las Ventanas al Paraíso. The hotel’s infinity pool and restaurants are close to the beach and could be swamped if the waves break over the retaining wall, he said.\nA team of 120 people had been working since Sunday to prepare the hotel for the storm, Mr. Alvaraez said, taking down anything that could fly away in a heavy wind, shutting up rooms, emptying the pools and unplugging electrical appliances. “There are thousands and thousands of tasks for 120 people,” he said.\nThe hotel’s guests had all left by Monday, mostly returning to the United States or moving to other tourist resorts, he said.\nFurther northwest along the peninsula, in the sparsely populated regions where the hurricane is expected to make landfall, fisherman living on coastal islands were evacuated to the mainland, said local civil protection officials.\nJimena was expected to continue moving north northwest near or over the southern portion of the peninsula Wednesday and continue over the central part of the peninsula Thursday before crossing over to the Sea of Cortez, the National Hurricane Center said.Continue reading the main story","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In fact, the rate of warming is currently 0.18C per decade, and 2021 became the hottest year ever recorded, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).\nEven without the extraordinary heatwave, Computer Weekly revealed homeworking numbers have now more than doubled since before the pandemic, as more people have seen the benefits of being able to work in the comfort of their own house.\nTo support staff working from home, invest in VOIP phones in Colchester today.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The forecaster said temperatures are expected to rise to 30 degrees later this week.\nThe highest temperature of the year so far (26.5 degrees) was recorded at Oak Park in Co Carlow on Sunday. In Dublin, 25.7 degrees was recorded at Casement Aerodrome.\nMet Éireann forecaster Harm Luijkx said it is unusual for the forecaster to issue a weather warning for high temperatures.\n“The last time we issued a weather warning for high temperatures would have been a few years ago, it is unusual,” he told The Irish Times. “You probably have to go back to 1995 or 1976 for a comparable event.”\nTuesday will be another warm day with long spells of hazy sunshine. Highest temperatures will be between 24 and 26 degrees but will be a little fresher and cooler in coastal areas, due to onshore breezes.\nMet Éireann said high temperatures will persist throughout the coming week with mostly sunny conditions between Wednesday and Friday. The forecaster said the sunshine is likely to be hazy in nature at times, due to some high clouds.\nDaytime temperatures are expected to be in the mid to high twenties and possibly a little higher locally on some days. The nights will be humid too, with lowest temperatures in the mid-teens.\n“We’re expecting temperatures to reach 30 degrees, it may reach 31 degrees,” Mr Luijkx added. “We’re not sure but it is possible.”\nThere is expected to be little change in conditions in most places next weekend, remaining dry, warm and fairly sunny.\nTemperatures may fall back to the high teens or low twenties by day in some northern areas, where northerly breezes may freshen.\nShare your sunny snaps\nIrish Water has urged the public to conserve water and indicated it may have to implement nighttime water restrictions due to the warm weather conditions.\nThe utility said current storage in the raw water reservoirs in the greater Dublin area, at Roundwood (Vartry) and Pollaphuca (Liffey) are reasonable.\n“The main pressure is on treated water capacity which along with our treated water storage can meet the normal daily range of demands at present,” it said.\n“However, in the recent dry spells, we have seen a significant increase of the order of 20-30 million litres per day which reaches and occasionally exceeds our maximum production capacity.\n“This is not sustainable on a long term (more than a few weeks) basis without some management action.”\nDr Maitiú Ó Tuathail, president of the National Association of GPs, has warned the public to keep hydrated, avoid alcohol and caffeinated beverages and wear lots of sun screens.\n“Irish bodies are not used to the heat so they have to work harder to cool down,” he told RTÉ Radio 1. Dr Ó Tuathail advised parents to use at least a factor 50 sun screen on children, which should be applied 30 minutes before exposure to the sun and to reapply every two hours.\nThe ISPCA has also reminded pet owners not to leave animals in the car during the warm weather.\n“Leaving dogs in the car in hot weather can be fatal in minutes, even with the windows down,” it said. “Please remember to give your pet fresh water and access to shade.”\nThe highest temperature recorded on Monday was 27 and a half degrees, at Oak Park weather station in Co Carlow, followed by 26.7 degrees at Shannon Airport, and just under 25 degrees in the Phoenix Park.\nDublin Fire Brigade have warned that mirrors, crystal and glass can cause fires if left in direct sunlight in the current hot weather, from the sun reflecting onto flammable surfaces.\nOther household objects such as aerosol cans can explode if left in direct sunlight, a spokesman for the fire service warned.\nThe fire service are advising the public to “keep such items in the shade and to be aware that sunshine moves during the day,” the spokesman said.\nThe Department of Agriculture has issued a status orange warning for forest fires, due to the dry conditions and high temperatures.\nCurrently the fire warning is due to remain in place until 12pm on Thursday.\nCoillte, the State-owned commercial forestry agency, has said forest fires will be “very likely” over the course of the week.\nDublin Fire Brigade have been battling a forest fire at Barnaslingan Wood, south Co Dublin, for the past nine days. A spokesman for Coillte said emergency teams were “working around the clock to keep the fire contained, but rain is needed to dampen the fire and cool off the embers in the ground”.\nHomeless charity Inner City Helping Homeless gave out nearly 1,000 bottles of water on Monday to rough sleepers in Dublin. The charity has appealed for donations of water bottles and sun cream, to distribute to the homeless, at risk of dehydration and sunburn.\nAlone, a charity that supports the elderly, asked the public to call in and check on their older neighbours during the heatwave.\n“Older people, and their families and neighbours, should be conscious that they are more at risk of dehydration,” Seán Moynihan, chief executive of Alone said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Even folks along the coast may break a sweat today -- after all, the high 70s are positively scorching when you live in Pacifica.\nAlthough it will be hot enough to justify an ice cream cone at lunch and a cold one after work, it won't be hot enough to score a free ride to work this morning.\nLATEST SFGATE VIDEOS\n- West Oakland Station Body Camera Video San Francisco Chronicle\n- The family of Sahleem Tindle watches body cam footage Courtesy of the Tindle family\n- They Survived the School Shooting.

That's the call of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District which, along with the Metropolitan Transit Commission, will start paying for free morning rides for commuters aboard the region's 21 mass transit systems when the smog hits full force.\nBetter luck tomorrow.\n\"We're watching Wednesday very carefully,\" said Terry Lee, a spokesman for the air quality district. \"We're ready to trigger it.\"\nTemperatures have already started to climb. Monday's highs included 92 in Santa Rosa, 91 in Concord and Livermore, and 85 in Redwood City.\nThe departure from weeks of lovely weather is due to the arrival of a dominant ridge of high pressure, which is creating a warm air mass that will envelop the region, Anderson said.\nTranslated from meteorologese, that means Arizona is sending its hot air our way.\n\"It's like a big bubble of warm air, and it's going to gradually slide over the Bay Area from the desert Southwest,\" Anderson said.\nThat bubble will be biggest over the inland areas, meaning residents of inland areas of Monterey and San Benito counties will be subjected to temperatures nearing 110 degrees. Folks along the Interstate 680 corridor, the eastern stretches of Contra Costa County and the Napa Valley won't have it much better as they swelter in 100-degree heat.\nSan Jose and the rest of the South Bay will hit the 90s, while people in San Francisco and along the coast will see more reasonable temperatures in the high 70s.\nBut never fear -- cooler temperatures will soon be here.\n\"It'll level off or even be cool around the Bay Area on Thursday and be back to normal next week,\" said Mike Pechner, owner of Golden West Meteorology. We'll enjoy a couple of weeks of normal temperatures, but swelter again at the end of the month, he said.\n\"The long-range data show very hot weather during the last week of July and the first week of August,\" Pechner said, adding that San Francisco might see the mercury top 90.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Hurricane strength winds were reported across the South Plains. Gusts of 68 mph were reported at Reese around 3 p.m. Tuesday and about five miles away, around the same time, residents at the Twin Oaks Apartment heard what they described as a \"loud bang.\" The wind sheered bricks off the side of the building.\nWarning Coordination Meteorologist Jody James with the National Weather Service says it's not out of the question to see winds like these in December. \"If you get damage to property doesn't matter what kind wind did damage but these winds can damage small light structures and down utility lines. That's always a problem when we get this kind of weather,\" adds James.\nA few utility lines around town were leaning over.

In South America, Lima, the capital of Peru, is in the top 10 of the most polluted cities, one place after Santiago de Chile.\nIn order to make comparisons among cities, AirVisual established six air quality categories: good, moderate, unhealthy for sensitive groups, unhealthy, very unhealthy and dangerous.\nThese categories were defined considering the presence of PM 2.5 particles, that is, materials in suspension of fewer than 2.5 microns which come from diesel vehicles and causes very serious affectations to human health due to their capacity to penetrate into the respiratory tract.\n\"The latest scientific work suggests that this type of pollution, and particularly particles from urban traffic, is associated with increases in the exposed population's morbidity and mortality rates, as well as with the development of asthma and allergies among children,\" Ecologists at Action, a network of grassroots movements, recalled and explained that the PM 2.5 particles have a size that \"makes them 100% breathable as they travel deep into the lungs, penetrating the respiratory system and depositing in the pulmonary alveoli. They can even reach the bloodstream.\"\nIn the world's most air-polluted cities ranking, Chile currently occupies the 26th place because Padre Las Casas and Osorno are the most unhealthy Chilean cities for sensitive social groups.\n\"Although Padre Las Casas appears as the most polluted Chilean city, its bad conditions are concentrated in the winter season. This is a characteristic contrary to the tendency of Santiago -a city which occupies the 20th place among the 62 most polluted capitals in the world- where its pollution levels move from moderate to very bad throughout the year,\" Estefania Gonzalez, Greenpeace's campaign area coordinator, explained, according to 24 Horas, a local media.\nThe diagnosis of the Chilean environmental situation gets worse when considering all the South American cities analyzed. In this region, 34 of the 46 most polluted cities are Chilean. Worldwide, however, 7 of the 10 most polluted cities are in India.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Goni and other colleagues of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological (NOAA/AOML) were among them. Dr. Goni was able to monitor the change of intensity of Katrina as its path went over the warm waters of the Loop Current and a warm ring shed by this current a few months earlier.\nImage to right: Altimetry-derived sea surface height (color, yellows are higher and blues are lower) and surface current directions (arrows) highlight the Loop Current and a warm ring (around 89W, 27N) in the Gulf of Mexico. The trajectory over the warm ring corresponds to a surface drifter and confirms the altimetry estimates. Click image to enlarge. Credit: NASA\nSatellite altimetry blended data, including those from NASA's TOPEX/Poseidon and Jason-1 missions, were used to estimate the Tropical Cyclone Heat Potential (TCHP, a measure of the oceanic heat content from the sea surface to the depth of the 26°C isotherm) in the Gulf of Mexico in near-real time. TCHP fields will be critical to scientists and forecasters to better understand the link between the ocean and the intensification Katrina and other hurricanes.\nAltimeter data, combined with other remote sensing and in-situ data, are among the suite of tools currently being used by forecasters to provide both long-term seasonal forecasts of the number and strength of tropical cyclones expected in a given hurricane season and short-term forecasts of the intensity of individual hurricanes.\nImage to left: Sea height anomaly on August 28, 2005. The path of Hurricane Katrina is indicated with circles spaced every 3 hours in the Gulf of Mexico and their size and color represent intensity (see legend). The hurricane intensified to category 5 as it passed near the warm core eddy of the Loop Current, then diminished to category 4 by the time it struck the coast. Click image to enlarge. Credit: NASA\nIn late August 2005 when Hurricane Katrina passed over the Loop Current and a large warm core ocean ring (top right image) it evolved quickly from a category 3 to category 5 event in a matter of 9 hours (bottom left image). The warm waters of the Loop Current appear to have rapidly fueled the storm as it targeted the coastlines of Louisiana and Mississippi, while the warm waters of the ring seemed to have helped to sustain the hurricane intensity. However, more studies will be needed to confirm this and to know the exact role that these two features played in the intensification of Katrina.\nResults from current research indicates that the intensification of many hurricanes in the tropical Atlantic, Caribbean Sea, and Gulf of Mexico may be linked to the variability of warm and cold ocean water under the storm track, where some storms quickly grow stronger when they pass over warm water and weaken in areas of lower temperature. Now, monitoring the thermal structure of the upper ocean has become a key element in the study of hurricane-ocean interaction, especially with respect to the prediction of sudden tropical cyclone intensification. Warm features, such as the anticyclonic rings shed by the Loop Current and warm eddies, are characterized by a deepening of warm water (by tens of meters) towards their centers, and by different temperature and salinity characteristics than the surrounding waters. These deviations of the normal ocean thermal conditions produce variations in the sea surface height that may range from a few centimeters to more than a meter and can be readily be detected by altimeters.\nImage above: Sea surface heights at the center of the Loop Current reached 50 to 70 cm in this image from August 27, 2005. Wind speeds of Hurricane Katrina, indicated in black along the path of the storm, reached highs of 173 mph. Credit: NASA\nTherefore, satellite altimeters can scope out areas of the ocean where warm water pools extend deeper below the surface than the seasonal surface warm water, and are then available as ammunition for intensifying hurricanes passing overhead. Moreover, the current suit of altimeters is now the only available tool that can monitor these regions in real-time with the proper spatial and temporal resolution for scientific studies. Tropical Cyclone Heat Potential maps, derived from altimetry and sea surface temperature data, are produced in near real-time (one day delay) and are distributed daily for all hurricane-prone ocean basins on the web (http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/phod/cyclone/data/\n). Similar maps are routinely used by the National Hurricane Center in Miami for improved hurricane intensity forecasts.\nMerged altimeter data for this research are provided by the Naval Research Laboratory and the French space agency's AVISO data center.\nFor additional information, read the AVISO feature Hurricane Katrina intensification\nJet Propulsion Lab","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Here are but a few of the chilling headlines from across the globe:\n• Cold wave in north, east India claims over 40 lives — Mangalore Today (India), December 28, 2012\n• Record Cold Grips Vast Area Of Asia – China Sees Temperatures Drop To – 37°C! — NoTrickZone (Germany) December 26, 2012\n• Cold War: Bitter Winter Weather Kills Hundreds In Eastern Europe, Russia — International Business Times (U.S.), December 24, 2012\n• Numerous Japanese cities reach record lows as freezing temperature persist — The Japan Daily Press (Japan), December 26, 2012\n• East Europe's bitter cold kills 300 — Vatican Radio (Rome), December 26, 2012\n• Down to -50C: Russians freeze to death as strongest-in-decades winter hits — Russia Today (Russia), December 19, 2012\n• Heavy snowfalls keep Balkans in deep freeze — U-T San Diego (U.S.), December 11, 2012•\nTens of thousands of holiday travelers stranded as wild weather heads east — TomNelsonBlogspot.com (U.S.), December 2, 2012\n• Blizzard warnings stretch for 730 continuous miles due to Winter Storm Euclid — The Weather Channel (U.S.)\nBut most of the so-called mainstream media (MSM) are stuck in their global warming groove and are determined to stay there, obstinately ignoring the scientific evidence that shows their alarmist predictions to be spectacularly wrong. They also have downplayed, totally ignored, or attempted to explain away the fact that for several winters in a row much of the world has been struck with deadly cold waves.\nNational Public Radio (NPR) and the Associated Press (AP) are all too typical of the willfully blind and invincibly ignorant MSM “news” organizations. On December 20 NPR ran an AP story entitled, “2012 Another Record-Setter, Fits Climate Forecasts” to spread more climate apocalypse fear.\nThe article intoned ominously:\nIn 2012 many of the warnings scientists have made about global warming went from dry studies in scientific journals to real-life video played before our eyes: Record melting of the ice in the Arctic Ocean. U.S. cities baking at 95 degrees or hotter. Widespread drought. Flooding. Storm surge inundating swaths of New York City.\nAll of that was predicted years ago by climate scientists and all of that happened in 2012.The article continued in the same vein, citing a litany of weather events that supposedly buttress the “extreme weather” meme that climate catastrophists hope will scare the world into adopting their plan for global regimentation of everything. The AP/NPR fright piece claimed:\nAmerica's heartland lurched from one extreme to the other without stopping at \"normal.\" Historic flooding in 2011 gave way to devastating drought in 2012.\n\"The normal has changed, I guess,\" said U.S. National Weather Service acting director Laura Furgione. \"The normal is extreme.\"The AP report is filled with almost every discredited frightmare conjured up by the discredited Climategate propagandists posing as scientists. But that was to be expected; the story was concocted by AP’s Seth Borenstein, an ardent global-warming alarmist who was at the center of AP’s 2009 Climategate scandal (See: “AP Caught Misleading On Climategate”).\nThat NPR chose to run with the AP/Borestein story is not surprising. NPR has long been infamous for its fact-averse, reality-free, taxpayer-financed, hard-left bias on virtually all things considered: gun control, gay marriage, abortion, ObamaCare, deficit spending, welfare, foreign aid, amnesty for illegal aliens, the United Nations, government regulation of just about everything, and, of course … global warming. Over the past several months, NPR has run dozens of its own print and broadcast stories on global warming. Among those are stories on how man-made global warming is supposedly causing: \"extreme weather,\" which, in turn, is causing \"extreme food prices\" and global hunger (see here); extreme hot weather in Texas (see here); “Hurricane” Sandy and widespread extreme weather (see here, here, and here); and more frequent and extreme wildfires (see here). NPR also joins its confreres on the Left in claiming that natural gas \"fracking\" contributes to global warming. NPR stories are heavily biased with quotes from \"experts\" — scientists and NGO activists — promoting the alarmist line, and network frequently features full interviews with leading alarmists, such as its October 3, 2012 interview with climate uber-alarmist Michael Mann (of Climategate infamy). But any NPR pretense of balance and objectivity on the subject was certainly destroyed by at least two articles this December defaming global warming skeptics (including world-renowned scientists) as “deniers” and equating them with space alien “conspiracy theorists” (see here and here).\nExtreme weather or extreme alarmism?\nBut is the world truly experiencing unnatural “extreme weather” and has it become “the new normal” because of anthropogenic (human-caused) global warming, or AGW? Happily, the answers are “no” and “no.” As The New American reported recently (“New Report: Man-made Global Warming Is a Farce”), there is no scientific, empirical evidence that droughts, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, and other extreme events are any more frequent or intense in recent years than in times past.\nSteven Goddard at RealScience responded to the NPR claims with this post on December 28:\nNPR told us today that the summer of 2012 was a record breaker in the US. The only thing which broke any records was the level of BS coming from the ministry of truth..\nAn apples to apples comparison, shows that the summer of 1936 had five times as many record maximums as the summer of 2012.Real Science then reproduced the graphs and data from the Global Historical Climate Network stations to show that 1936 was indeed a much hotter year — during a time when CO2 levels were much lower.\nRegarding the continuously repeated false claim that recent hurricanes and Tropical Storm Sandy are “unprecedented,” Anthony Watts, at WattsUpWithThat.com, charges: \"Next time somebody tries to tell you hurricane Sandy was an 'unprecedented' East Coast hurricane, show them this.” The “this” he refers to is a NOAA graphic of the U.S. eastern seaboard plotting the paths of the nine H3 and H4 category hurricanes that hit the region 1951-1960. H notes:\nAll one need to do to explode the memes that paid political activists Bill McKibben and Brad Johnson are pushing is to look at a history book. In this case, WeatherBELL’s Joe Bastardi points us to NOAA’s National Hurricane Center history book.Meteorologist Joe Bastardi of WeatherBell.com observes that six of those hurricanes occurred in just two years — Carol, Edna, Hazel, Connie, Diane, Ione — and five of them were majors. “Nothing even CLOSE on east coast since then,” says Bastardi.\nApropos to the situation, Anthony Watts asks a very relevant question. “Along the same lines of looking at history, what was the CO2 level then?” Watts refers us to a NOAA chart. Surprise: CO2 levels were below 310 parts per million prior to 1960.\nWatts notes: “Looks like the CO2 level was less than 310 ppm prior to 1958, when the data begins.” “So here’s the question,” says Watts, “if 350 ppm is the ‘safe’ level as defined by activists Dr. James Hansen and Bill McKibben, how did all those hurricanes happen back then?”\nWhat about the dramatic AP/NPR claim that “all of that was predicted years ago by climate scientists and all of that happened in 2012”? Well, when it comes to predictions, the “climate scientists” AP/NPR favors are about as reliable as the advocates of the Mayan Calendar Apocalypse. As we reported recently (Climate-change Computer Models Fail Again — and Again, and Again), one scientific report after another has shown the computer models used by the AGW alarmists to be fatally flawed and much of their data to be exaggerated, manipulated, fabricated, and outright fraudulent. But scientific evidence and common sense haven’t stopped NPR, AP and other MSM Chicken Littles from doubling down and cranking up the AGW fright peddling.\nSnowmaggedon Clobbers Warmaggedon\nICECAP is a top climate science site that regularly debunks claims of the global warming alarmists. Its staff and contributing writers include renowned climatologists, meteorologists and physicists. In a December 19 posting, meteorologist Joe D’Aleo notes that “75% or more of the nation will be snow-covered by end of year. The hemisphere has again been well above normal w/r snow. For the US, two major snowstorms this week and a frigid New Year’s Eve. Snows will fall west south and east. Another storm in early January.”\nD’Aleo took aim at the year-end hyperventilating by the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) and the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) over the “crisis” that 2012’s weather supposedly proves. D’Aleo observes:\nAnother bout of nonsense from UNH/UCS and NRDC environmental activists who never really look at the data. Back in 2007, the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS), an environmental advocacy group that has seeded the once great universities with alarmists, had a meeting atop Mt. Washington where they warned ski areas that snow would vanish as global warming accelerated and the maple sugar industry would also suffer as maple trees packed their bags and retreated to Canada.\nThat very next winter set all types of snow records in the northeast and across all the country west to Colorado and north to Alaska. Across almost all of North America, 2007/08 was the best, or one of the best seasons ever for those who enjoy winter sports. Practically every ski area from Alaska across Canada in the Western U.S. - the Midwest and New England saw plenty of snow; some places reporting all-time record snow. Michael Berry, President of the National Ski Areas Association told the AP that, “This could very well be the record year”.ICECAP Executive Director D’Aleo, who was the first Director of Meteorology at the cable TV Weather Channel and has over 30 years of professional meteorological experience, goes on:\nTwo years later, another enviro terrorist, RFK Jr., lamented that children in DC would no longer be able to enjoy winter sports like sledding because of global warming. The following winter 2009/10 set all-time snow records for the Mid-Atlantic with sled and snowshoes and skiis the best way to get around.D’Aleo produces satellite photos, Doppler radar, charts, data, and photos of snowbound cities, villages, and countryside to go along with his story. He notes:\nIn 2010/11 major snows hit the nation again. Chicago had a blizzard.... The east was buried in snow.... NYC had their third snowiest year and second snowiest month (behind February 2010).\nA major blitz of heavy snowstorms occured in the east, in the big cities of the east. Since 2000, we have had 17 major east coast storms among the 46 major impact storms NOAA has cataloged in the 56 years of the record, a full 10 such storms since the first ludicrous UNH/UCS press release....\nIn the hemisphere, 2009/10 had the second highest snow extent behind 1977/78. 20010/11 was third, 2007/08 4th and 2002/03 fifth. So 4 of the 5 snowiest years on record for the hemisphere have occurred in the last decade....\nIn an ironic twist, instead of greenhouse effect producing less snow, too much snow collapsed greenhouses in China this fall! (D’Aleo includes a photo of Chinese digging out collapsed greehouses).\nWhat’s more there has been no warming in any US region in the last 15 years, even with the warm winter last year.FACT: No Measurable Warming for 15+ Years\nYes, to top it all off, even many of the top alarmist individuals and institutions — Dr. Phil Jones (of Climategate infamy), the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the British Met Office, to name a few — have been forced to admit that there has been no measurable global warming for more than 15 years, during which time the same alarmists have been screaming in panic mode about the “end of the world as we know it” due to AGW.\nHowever, the AGW alarmists have been hit with an even harsher dose of reality: the temperature records they have been relying on have been shown to be unfairly tilted in favor of the AGW thesis. The land temperature records from the weather stations have long been suspected of showing a warming bias due to poor siting, in violation of standard siting protocols. For several years meteorologist Anthony Watts has doggedly pursued this very vulnerable area of climate alarmism, with a dedicated band of volunteers, checking and documenting the problems with many of the weather stations that provide the temperatures used in the AGW models to produce the scary scenarios of a melting earth.\nA large number of the weather stations are situated in areas that, over the decades, have changed from rural to urban and suburban habitat, with measurable “heat island effect.” In addition, as Watts has shown, many of the thermometer sites have egregious violations, such as placement on, next to, or near black top, exhaust fans, brick buildings, barbecues, metal structures, etc., all of which skew the temperatures in an upward directions and therefore give false warming signals.\nAs we have reported previously, an important study by Anthony Watts published this past July is what many scientists are calling “a game changer.” Watts’ comprehensive study shows that the faulty, non-compliant station sites, not surprisingly, have doubled the temperature increase of the better-sited, compliant stations. This is hugely important, since the cumulative temperature increase recorded by the compliant thermometers falls within the range of natural variability, which is to say, there is no measurable warming.\nTime for the alarmists to chill out, relax — and celebrate; there is no AGW \"crisis,\" no \"existential threat\" from human activities to warrant all the anxiety.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

For those of us in the Northern Hemisphere, it will seem to barely rise — hardly peeking above a city’s skyline or a forest’s snow-covered evergreens — before it swiftly sets.\nFor months, the orb’s arc across the sky has been slumping, shortening each day.\nIn New York City, for example, the sun will be in the sky for just over nine hours — roughly six hours less than in June at the summer solstice. The winter solstice marks the shortest day of the year, before the sun reverses course and climbs higher into the sky. (At the same time, places like Australia in the Southern Hemisphere mark the summer solstice, the longest day of the year.)\nThis is a good opportunity to imagine what such a day might look like if we had evolved on another planet where the sun would take a different dance across the sky. You might want to feel thankful for the solstices and seasons we do have, or we might not be here to witness them at all.\nThe solstices occur because most planets do not spin upright, or perpendicular to their orbits.\nThe Earth, for example, slouches 23.5 degrees on a tilted axis. This leaves the planet’s North Pole pointed toward the North Star over relatively long periods of time, even as Earth makes its yearlong migration around the sun. That means the Northern Hemisphere will spend half the year tilted slightly toward the sun, bathing in direct sunlight during summer’s long, blissful days, and half the year cooling off as it leans slightly away from the sun during winter’s short, frigid days. Dec. 21 marks the day when the North Pole is most tilted away from the sun.\nBut every planet slouches at different angles.\nThe axial tilt of Venus, for example, is so extreme — 177 degrees — that the planet is essentially flipped upside down with its South Pole pointing up. Perhaps counter-intuitively, that means that there’s very little tilt to its upside-down spin and its hemispheres will never dramatically point toward or away from the sun. As such, the sun’s dance across the sky will remain relatively stable — shifting by a mere six degrees over the course of a Venusian year.\nHad we evolved on Venus, it’s likely that we would not have noticed solstices or seasons at all, said David Grinspoon, an astrobiologist at the Planetary Science Institute.\nThe same can’t be said for imaginary aliens living within Uranus’s chilly blue clouds.\n“Uranus is wild,” Dr. Grinspoon said.\nAn axial tilt of 98 degrees causes the ice giant to spin on its side. So, whereas one of Earth’s poles leans slightly toward the sun at solstice, one of Uranus’s poles points almost directly toward the sun at solstice — as though poised to make a perfect bullseye. That means that one hemisphere will bask under the sun both day and night, while the other will experience a frigid and dark winter and not catch a glimpse of the sun for that entire season.\n“It really can’t get any more extreme than that,” said Heidi Hammel, a planetary scientist at the Planetary Society.\nSuch a tilt on Earth would mean that the Arctic Circle didn’t begin 66 degrees north of the Equator, but at the Equator itself. All of North America, Europe, Asia and half of Africa would spend winters in permanent darkness and summers under constant sunlight. And on Uranus, which takes 84 Earth years to orbit the sun, these seasons last for decades.\n“If there were creatures on Uranus — and I don’t think there are — seasonal affective disorder would be a lifetime thing,” Dr. Hammel said.\nBut the king of extreme seasons is Pluto.\nWhen NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft arrived at the dwarf planet in 2015, scientists discovered a unique world overflowing with surface features that look like networks of drainage channels and even a frozen lake. But given Pluto’s low atmospheric pressure and chilly surface temperature, liquids cannot flow across the surface — at least not today. “That can’t happen in the current environment,” said Alan Stern, the principal investigator of the mission. “So, neither the channels nor the lake can be.”\nScientists now have an explanation: seasons in Pluto’s past pushed atmospheric pressure high enough to allow liquids of methane and nitrogen to flow and pool on the surface.\nA changing axial tilt is the biggest driver of wildly varying seasons on Pluto. Over the course of 4 million years, Pluto’s slouch shifts back and forth between 102 and 126 degrees, causing its equivalent of an Arctic Circle to grow and shrink. That occasionally creates seasons where the atmospheric pressure is high enough that liquid methane and nitrogen can flow.\nAlthough, astronomers remain uncertain how a planet’s seasons might affect its likelihood to host life, Dr. Grinspoon argues that such dramatic swings — like those on Pluto — are likely a hindrance because they can make a planet unfit to live on for long stretches of time. “Life needs a continuously habitable zone to thrive,” he said. Similarly, astronomers have long suspected that life would likely not survive on Earth should it have an axial tilt more akin to Uranus.\nSo, as the sun reaches its farthest point in the sky on Dec. 21, be grateful. Never will the sun dip so far below the horizon that it plunges half of the globe into a monthslong night and the other half into an equally long summer. Nor does Earth’s tilt change drastically over millions of years, thanks to the influence of the moon. Instead, the sun appears to trot back and forth between the extremes, like the pendulum of a great clock, keeping the planet cozy while steadily counting off its years.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Irene had the potential to cause billions of dollars in damage all along a densely populated arc that included Washington, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, Boston and beyond. At least 65 million people could be affected.\nBy late Friday morning, Irene remained a Category 2 storm with maximum sustained winds near 105 mph. Little change in strength was expected by the time Irene reaches the North Carolina coast Saturday, but forecasters at the National Hurricane Center warned it would be a large and dangerous storm nonetheless.\nPresident Barack Obama said all indications point to the storm's being a historic hurricane.\n\"I cannot stress this highly enough. If you are in the projected path of this hurricane, you have to take precautions now,\" Obama said Friday from Martha's Vineyard. He was wrapping up his vacation a day early and now planned to leave Friday, before Irene is expected to pass the area around the capital, the White House said.\nAs Irene trudged northwest from the Bahamas, rain from its outer bands began falling along the North and South Carolina coasts. Swells and 6- to 9-foot waves were reported along the Outer Banks. Thousands had already lost power as the fringes of the storm began raking the shore.\nHurricane warnings remained in effect from North Carolina to New Jersey. Hurricane watches were in effect even farther north and included Long Island, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket, Mass.\nFriday morning, FEMA Director Craig Fugate and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano pleaded with people to heed warnings.\n\"People need to leave early, travel a safe distance and get somewhere safe,\" Fugate said. \"All the preparation and planning will be in vain if people don't heed those evacuation orders.\"\nIn addition to widespread wind and water damage, Irene could also push crude oil prices higher if it disrupts refineries in Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Virginia, which produce nearly 8 percent of U.S. gasoline and diesel fuel.\nSpeaking Friday on CBS' \"The Early Show,\" North Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue said state troopers, the Red Cross and the National Guard were in place to deal with the storm's aftermath, which she said could affect some 3.5 million people.\nIrene could be the strongest hurricane to strike the East Coast in seven years. Irene already had pummeled the Caribbean, causing floods and power outages.\nThe center of the storm was still about 330 miles south-southwest of Cape Hatteras, N.C., and moving to the north at 14 mph.\nIn Washington, Irene dashed hopes of dedicating a 30-foot sculpture to Martin Luther King Jr. on Sunday on the National Mall. Although a direct strike on the nation's capital appeared slim, organizers said the forecasts of wind and heavy rain made it too dangerous to summon a throng they expected to number up to 250,000.\nHundreds of thousands of New Yorkers were told Thursday to pack a bag and be prepared to move elsewhere. The nation's biggest city has not seen a hurricane in decades, and a hurricane warning hasn't been issued there since Hurricane Gloria hit in 1985 as a Category 2 storm, said Ashley Sears, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.\nGov. Andrew Cuomo said public transportation in New York City would shut down around noon Saturday, and major bridges also could shut down if conditions become too windy.\nThe first U.S. injuries from Irene appeared to be in South Florida near West Palm Beach, where eight people were washed off a jetty Thursday by a large wave churned up by the storm.\nThe urban population explosion in recent decades also worries New Jersey officials. Gov. Chris Christie encouraged anyone on that state's heavily developed shoreline to prepare to leave. One of the popular casinos in Atlantic City had already closed Friday, and several others planned to shut down later in the day.\nThe beach community of Ocean City, Md., was taking no chances, ordering thousands of people to leave.\n\"This is not a time to get out the camera and sit on the beach and take pictures of the waves,\" Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It has also shut down most oil and gas production in the Gulf.\nKieran Burke reports with more.\nNate comes on the heels of three other major storms, Harvey, Irma and Maria, which devastated Texas, Florida and Puerto Rico, respectively. However, with winds of 85 miles per hour (135 km per hour), which make it a Category 1 storm, the weakest in the five-category ranking used by meteorologists, Nate appeared to lack the devastating punch of its predecessors.\n\"The only thing you can do is prepare,\" said Gulfport, Mississippi, resident Emmett Bryant. \"Here there's nothing really you can do when the storm comes unless you're going to leave. And I don't plan on leaving.\"\nHurricane Nate is expected to weaken as it moves further inland on Sunday and is likely to become a tropical storm later in the day.\nThe storm's center will move inland over Mississippi and across the deep south, Tennessee Valley and Central Appalachian Mountains through Monday, the National Hurricane Center said. Before then storm surges of up to 11 feet (3.4 m) on the Mississippi-Alabama border were possible, the NHC said.\nNate made its initial landfall near the mouth of the Mississippi river on Saturday evening and then made a second landfall early on Sunday near Biloxi, Mississippi, where its 46,000 residents were warned that the highest storm surge could reach 11 to 12 feet.\nThe storm surge brought flood waters over Highway 90 and up to oceanside casinos in Biloxi, while flood waters swept over streets in communities across Mississippi and Alabama, according to reports on social media.\n\"We have a restaurant and one of our main bars open so they have been ok so far,\" said Chett Harrison, the general manager at the Golden Nugget hotel and casino in Biloxi where 300 guests were hunkered down.\n\"No one has tried to leave, thank goodness, because everything is flooded around us,\" he told a local CBS TV affiliate.\nIn Hancock County, Mississippi, northeast of New Orleans, rain and wind were gaining intensity and many streets were washing over. Conditions were likely to worsen in the next few hours, said Brian Adam, director of emergency management for the county.\nThe county evacuated people from low-lying areas and imposed a curfew.\nOn Saturday states of emergency were declared in Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama, as well as in more than two dozen Florida counties.\nIn Alabama Governor Kay Ivey urged residents in areas facing heavy winds and storm surges to take precautions.\nSome 5,000 people in southern Alabama were without power due to Nate, Alabama Power said.\nRainfall of 3 to 6 inches (7.6 cm to 15.2 cm), up to a maximum of 10 inches, were expected east of the Mississippi River from the central Gulf Coast into the Deep South, in the eastern Tennessee Valley, and southern Appalachian mountains, the NHC said.\nRainfall in the Ohio Valley and into the central Appalachians could be 2 to 5 inches with a maximum of 7 inches.\nNew Orleans threat downgraded\nNew Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu lifted a curfew in the city on Saturday evening that was originally scheduled to last until Sunday morning. He said in a statement on social media however, that there was still a serious threat of storm surge outside levee areas.\nPlaquemines Parish, a low-lying area south of New Orleans, evacuated some 240 residents who were not protected by its levee system as the storm approached.\n\"While it appears we're being spared ... our hearts go out to Mississippi,\" said Amos Cormier, president of the parish.\nMajor shipping ports across the central US Gulf Coast were closed to inbound and outbound traffic on Saturday, as Nate intensified and storm surges of up 11 feet were expected at the mouth of the Mississippi River.\nThe storm has curtailed 92 percent of daily oil production and 77 percent of daily natural gas output in the Gulf of Mexico, more than three times the amount affected by Harvey.\nWorkers had been evacuated from 301 platforms and 13 rigs as of Saturday, said the U.S. Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement.\nBefore heading north into the Gulf, Nate brushed Mexico's Yucatan peninsula, home to beach resorts such as Cancun and Playa del Carmen, the NHC said.\nThe storm doused Central America with heavy rains on Thursday, killing at least 16 people in Nicaragua, 10 in Costa Rica, two in Honduras and two in El Salvador.\nThousands were forced to evacuate their homes and Costa Rica's government declared a state of emergency.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The mesosphere lies at 50–90 km altitude and has a negative temperature gradient; the thermosphere lies above 90 km and has a positive temperature gradient (see Figure 1). The thermal and dynamical structure of the region around the mesopause, extending for present purposes from about 80 km to 150 km, is characterized by a diversity of physical processes that dynamically and energetically couple the middle and upper atmosphere.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

If the ATS’s standards were met, each year in the U.S. approximately:\n- 6,270 lives would be saved\n- 15,300 instances of serious illness would be avoided\n- 7 million missed school and work days would be eliminated\nThe “ATS and Marron Institute Report: Estimated Excess Morbidity and Mortality Associated with Air Pollution above ATS-Recommended Standards, 2013-2015” is published in the May 1 issue of the Annals of the American Thoracic Society. The new report builds on the two organizations’ 2016 “Health of the Air Report” by using the latest air quality data available. The latest report includes two new measures–short-term PM2.5 and lung cancer incidence–to give a clearer picture of how air pollution impacts health in the U.S.\nThe ATS-recommended standards for O3 and PM2.5 are based on scores of national and international epidemiological, animal and human-exposure studies. These standards are more rigorous than National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for both O3 and PM2.5 that the EPA relies upon.\nThe ATS recommends:\n- A 0.060 parts per million (ppm) 8-hour standard for O3, rather than the EPA’s 0.070 ppm standard. Eighty-two percent of monitored counties failed to meet this ATS standard.\n- An 11 micrograms per cubic meter (µg/m3) annual standard for PM2.5, rather than the EPA’s 12 µg/m3. Eight percent of monitored counties failed to meet this ATS standard.\n- A 25 µg/m3 short-term (24 hours) standard for PM2.5 rather than the EPA’s 35 µg/m3. Twenty-one percent of monitored counties failed to meet this ATS standard.\n“In addition to highlighting the benefits of strengthening the NAAQS, this report can help guide local and regional air quality management decisions,” said report co-author Gary Ewart, MHS, chief of the ATS advocacy and government relations program. “The report’s local health estimates can help public officials make difficult decisions regarding how aggressively to adopt new technologies or, alternatively, how aggressively to restrict high-polluting sources.”\nLead report author Kevin Cromar, PhD, director of the Air Quality Program at the Marron Institute and associate professor of population health and environmental medicine at the NYU School of Medicine, added, “Metropolitan areas and states with large populations and elevated concentrations of one or both air pollutants would realize the biggest improvements in public health by meeting the more protective standards.”\nThe 10 metropolitan areas that would benefit the most from meeting the ATS O3 and PM2.5 standards are:\n- Los Angeles (Long Beach-Glendale), CA: 941 lives saved, 2,670 fewer morbidities, and 2,250,000 fewer impacted days\n- Riverside (San Bernardino-Ontario), CA: 609 lives saved, 1,250 fewer morbidities, and 1,100,000 fewer impacted days\n- Bakersfield, CA: 369 lives saved, 513 fewer morbidities, and 247,000 fewer impacted days\n- Fresno, CA: 244 lives saved, 458 fewer morbidities, and 359,000 fewer impacted days\n- Pittsburgh, PA: 205 lives saved, 382 fewer morbidities and 197,000 fewer impacted days\n- Phoenix (Mesa-Scottsdale), AZ: 178 lives saved, 432 fewer morbidities, and 453,000 fewer impacted days\n- New York (Jersey City-White Plains), NY-NJ: 166 lives saved, 626 fewer morbidities, and 492,000 fewer impacted days\n- Houston (The Woodlands-Sugar Land), TX: 163 lives saved, 508 fewer morbidities and 476,000 fewer impacted days\n- Visalia (Porterville), CA: 144 lives saved, 199 fewer morbidities and 109,000 fewer impacted days\n- Philadelphia, PA: 132 lives saved, 218 fewer morbidities and 136,000 fewer impacted days\nOn a state-wide basis, California alone is responsible for half the total estimated deaths, while the next highest impacted states—Pennsylvania, Texas, Arizona, Michigan, Ohio, New York and New Jersey—contribute nearly 30 percent of the total mortality impact.\nAccording to the authors, the study adopts the approach used by the EPA to determine air pollution levels. Current PM2.5 and O3 air pollution concentrations were estimated for each county with a valid design value for 2013-2015. A design value is the three-year average of pollution concentrations measured at each monitoring location and is used to determine whether a county is in attainment with federal air quality standards.\nFor O3, the design value represents the three-year average of the fourth highest daily 8-hour maximum ozone concentration. PM2.5 has both long- and short-term design values: the annual, long-term design value is the three-year average of the annual mean concentration, while the daily, short-term value is the three-year average of the 24-hour 98th percentile.\nBecause air quality has been improving across the U.S., the authors said that the Health of the Air Report will be updated regularly.\n“Air quality in the U.S. has benefitted from more protective federal standards in response to evidence from health studies, and there are likely further benefits to be gained by standards even lower than those now recommended by the ATS,” said ATS President Marc Moss, MD, who is Roger S. Mitchell Professor of Medicine in the Division of Pulmonary Sciences and Critical Care Medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine.\nDr. Moss added that extensive research has not identified an air pollution threshold below which there are no health benefits. “We would encourage cities that can improve their air quality further after meeting the ATS guidelines to do so. Their residents will live healthier lives,” he said.\nA searchable online tool for city- and county-specific health estimates to aid in quality management decisions at the local level can be found at www.HealthoftheAir.org.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Within the framework of the described methodology, an optimal AQMN design was proposed to assess the violation and pattern scores for each pollutant. For this purpose, a criterion for assessing the allocation of monitoring stations was developed by applying a utility function that could describe the spatial coverage of the network and its ability to detect violations of standards for multiple pollutants. An air dispersion model based on the multiple cell approach was used to create monthly spatial distributions for the concentrations of the pollutants emitted from different sources. The data was used to develop the surrogate models. The proposed methodology was applied to a network of existing refinery stacks, and the locations of monitoring stations and their area coverage percentage were obtained. Results clearly indicated that the proposed methodology was successful in designing AQMNs and could be used for as many stations as required.\n|الصفحات (من إلى)||1176-1187|\n|دورية||Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering|\n|المعرِّفات الرقمية للأشياء|\n|حالة النشر||Published - يوليو 1 2015|\nASJC Scopus subject areas","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In addition, work under MNREGA plan is also prohibited during this period. The orders also prohibits all public gatherings during the afternoon. All schools, colleges and private tuition institutes have been asked to remain closed till June 22.\nSection 144 was first imposed in the district of Gaya. District magistrate Abhishek Singh said that the orders have been imposed in order to ensure that people do not go out in the heat and that it will remain in place until the next order. Retailers’ unions have also been urged to keep the shops closed in the afternoon except to offer emergency services. A day later, Section 144 was imposed in the entire state.\nExperts claim that this is probably the first time that such prohibitory orders have been imposed in Bihar due to an extreme heatwave, and also the first time that the heatwave has killed so many people.\nTemperatures have been recorded in excess of 45 degree Celsius in several parts. On June 15, Gaya recorded a maximum temperature of 45.6 degree Celsius, 8 degrees above normal, which led to the deaths of 25 people. Another 30 persons lost their lives in Aurangabad on the same day.\nOn June 16, 36 people died in Aurangabad and another 28 died in Gaya. On June 17, the combined death toll in Aurangabad, Nawada and Gaya was 48.\nConsidering the rising number of patients in hospitals, additional doctors have been deployed in these districts. Guidelines have been issued for the general public as well.\nAccording to weather expert G.P. Sharma: “Since the temperature was at a constant in Bihar during the last few days, when the temperature rose suddenly, the surge came as a shock.”\nHe says, “Heatwaves are normal in Bihar but the change in weather during the last week was felt across Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat. Though Punjab and Rajasthan have witnessed a slight respite from the heat, its effects have not reached Bihar yet. As a result, Bihar is still reeling under the hot weather. Had there been phases of change in weather activities, the impact would not have been as harsh.”\n“When the weather remains constant, and the temperature does not fluctuate much, a cumulative effect is seen over a period of a few days which results in a sudden surge in temperature. That’s what happened in Bihar,” he adds.\nFor the past one week, the temperature in Bihar has hovered around 45 degree Celsius – between 5 and 6 degrees above normal.\nIn its latest bulletin, the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has predicted some respite. Heat wave conditions are likely to prevail in Bihar and parts of West Bengal for another day, after which they are likely to subside.\nSpeaking to The Wire, Pradhan Parthasarthy, the head of Indian Meteorology Society (Patna) who has been researching weather patterns for several years, and who is also a member of the steering committee of Bihar State Action Plan for climate change, pointed towards the geographical reasons of the heatwave in Magadha region.\nHe said, “Magadha region has the Vindhya mountain range which begins from Mirzapur and reaches Palamu, while passing through Kaimoor, Rohtas and Gaya. There is little foliage in the region and the mountains are bare. They tend to heat up quickly and the wind that blows through the region rapidly becomes hot. The temperature in areas where the wind becomes hot tends to increase sharply as compared to the plains. This hot wind transforms into loo which is deadlier in the plain. This is why these areas witnessed a soaring heat and loo claimed dozens of lives.”\nRain in Bihar depends on the winds coming from the Bay of Bengal. But currently, there is no ongoing meteorological activity in the Bay of Bengal. This is one of the main reasons why Bihar’s weather has worsened.\n“The Westerlies are active in the plains of Ganga right now,” says Parthasarthy. “As long as the Westerlies remain active in the Ganga plains, they will not allow the formation of clouds over Bihar. Clouds will form here only when winds from the Bay of Bengal blow. It is these winds which push the monsoon towards Bihar.”\nAnother reason for the heatwave has been the delay in the monsoon.\nIn Bihar, the south-west monsoon usually arrives by June 10-12. It enters the region through the Bay of Bengal. But for the past few years, it has been arriving late. Officials of the meteorological department said that the monsoon arrived late in Kerala itself, which is why it has been late in reaching Bihar.\nLast year, the monsoon reached Bihar on 25 June. Monsoon showers began on June 16 in 2017, and on June 17 in 2016.\nThis year, the monsoon is expected to hit Bihar on June 22.\nTranslated from Hindi by Naushin Rehman.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Snow here was a hard-packed 10-15cm cover, we spoke to a senior National Parks & Wildlife Service (NPWS) officer who said that snow was up to 30cm deep in patches earlier in the week - before the heavy rains began.\nFrom Polblue we headed east toward Devils Hole Lookout where snow quickly thinned out over the eastern side of the range. No snow was apparent at the lookout or on any of the other surrounding higher mountain peaks. Temperature on the car thermometer read 6°C. Further east of here we come across frost patches still on & beside the road in sheltered spots.\nAn informative & fun trip to say the least, even allowing for the poor road conditions - possibly the worst i've ever seen in the area.\nSee another Snow/Weather article here:\nThe Tops Organic Retreat is the closest non-camping accomodation to the more snow prone area Barrington Tops. It's just half an hour's drive up to Pol Blue. With cosy log fires it's a great place for a romatic or family winter getaway.

People Editorial Guidelines Published on November 11, 2021 11:05 AM Share Tweet Pin Email Photo: getty It's meteor shower hour! The Leonid meteor shower is expected to peak late night on Nov. 16 and Nov. 17 early morning, but will remain active through Nov. 30. Stargazers can expect a spectacular scene of shooting stars because the Leonids are historically known for their meteor storms rather than showers which can produce at least 1,000 meteors per hour. During a 1966 Leonid storm, viewers claimed \"thousands of meteors per minute fell through Earth's atmosphere during a 15 minute period,\" recorded by NASA. \"There were so many meteors seen that they appeared to fall like rain.\" The last Leonid storm that took place was in 2002 and is said to occur roughly every 33 years. (If you're anything like us, your calendar is already marked for 2035.) Harvest Moon 2021: See Photos of the September Spectacular Around the World getty Although a storm spectacle is unlikely to be in effect this year, star searchers can still expect to witness approximately 15 meteors per hour that shoot as fast as 44 miles per second. The Leonids are considered some of the fastest meteors out there, so try not to blink! They are also known for their bluish-white hues, earthgrazers – and yes, fireballs. Earthgrazers are meteors that have long, colorful tails and fly especially close to the horizon. Fireballs are grander explosions of light that last longer than an average meteor since they derive from larger particles of cometary material. NASA Will Test 'Planetary Defense' System by Shooting a Rocket at an Asteroid getty How can you watch the meteor shower show? NASA suggests the following: First, appropriately prepare yourself for the temperatures and conditions with sleeping bags, blankets, and chairs. Then, head outside 30 minutes before midnight to give your eyes a chance to adjust to the dark (find a spot farthest away from light for the best view). Angle yourself with your feet facing east, look up, and take in as much of the sky as possible. Patience is key, as you'll have until dawn to catch a glimpse. Stargazers will have to contend with a waxing gibbous moon, which will interfere with viewing because it brightens the sky. Fortunately, it shouldn't cause too much of a problem, only washing out the fainter meteors. Straight Out of Armageddon: NASA Tests Asteroid Impact Before Crashing Spacecraft Into One getty Although viewers can spot the flying stars from all over the night sky, it can be helpful to locate the originating point from which they shoot. The Leonids come from the Leo the Lion constellation because these meteors \"radiate outward from the vicinity of stars representing the Lion's Mane,\" according to EarthSky.org. They tend to stream from the star Algieba within the Leo cluster. \"The point in the sky from which they appear to radiate is the radiant point,\" the publication added. The source of the Leonid meteor shower is Comet 55P/Tempel-Tuttle, \"which is falling apart as it makes periodic runs around the sun and its ices melt from the heat,\" according to Space.com. \"As Earth plows through the vast number of particles it leaves behind, meteors streak through the atmosphere.\" Ingenuity Helicopter Takes First Aerial Color Photos of Mars: 'That's Why We're Here' getty November surely gets its fix of astronomical activity, between meteor showers and moon phases. The Taurid meteor shower took place at the beginning of the month, while the partial lunar eclipse will unfold over the North American sky on Nov. 19. October saw the Draconids and Orionids meteor showers. The Draconids were, unfortunately, difficult to view due to a thick layer of clouds, while the Orionids were drowned out by the Hunter's Moon.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Fri/Sat/Sun: fun pulsey S’ly swells with light winds. Mon: new pulse of S/SE swell with generally light winds.\nRecap: Near-flat conditions Tuesday. A new south swell has started building across Southern NSW this afternoon, with early 3ft sets at south facing beaches now pushing 4ft and expected to be a little bigger by later today. Winds have been mainly moderate S’ly although periods of W/SW winds have been reported about the coast.\nThis week (June 11 - 12)\nThe frontal progression responsible for the current south swell tracked a little off axis compared to Monday’s model guidance, which has resulted in a slight downgrade for Thursday.\nNevertheless, we’re still looking at a strong secondary pulse of south swell holding steady for much of the day, with south facing beaches likely to reach 4-5ft (bigger 6ft+ sets in the Hunter). Expect smaller surf at beaches not open to the south.\nLocal winds should become light and variable on Thursday as a weak high pressure system pushes across the south-western Tasman Sea, however there may be a lingering SE flow across the Hunter. For what its worth, model guidance also has a brief restrengthening S/SW flow across the Sydney/Illawarra coasts through the morning but I don’t think this will eventuate. For the most part conditions should be reasonably good across most of the Southern NSW coast, especially in the south.\nOn Friday, the south swell will slowly trend downwards. However, a succession of trailing fronts through the lower Tasman Sea will maintain plenty of background southerly swell energy, that should slow the easing trend. As such, south facing beaches should see inconsistent 3ft+ sets (smaller elsewhere, but bigger in the Hunter) and light variable winds - mainly W’ly - should keep conditions nice and clean. Smaller surf is likely through the afternoon as wave energy continues to subside.\nThis weekend (June 13 - 14)\nA strong front within this recent progression, passing east of Tasmania on Thursday, will deliver a renewal of south swell that's due to arrive on Saturday morning. It’ll display longer swell periods (due to stronger core wind speeds) however the less-favourable storm track means swell size will be smaller across the NSW coast.\nThat being said, with light variable winds on offer all day conditions should be nice and clean. South facing beaches should build all day with sets in the 3ft+ range at south facing beaches by lunchtime, and bigger 4-5ft sets across the Hunter Coast. As per usual, expect smaller surf at beaches not open to the south. The timing on this pulse isn't clear so dawn may reveal smaller waves ahead of its arrival.\nSunday will then see this south swell ease slowly in size, but Sydney’s south facing beaches should again pick up fun 2-3ft surf, with bigger 4ft waves across the Hunter coast (ahead of an easing trend into the afternoon). Light winds are expected throughout the day once again thanks to the presence of a weak high across the Southern Tasman Sea.\nNext week (June 15 onwards)\nThe front and low responsible for Saturday’s pulse is expected to undergo a further re-intensification, well to the south of New Zealand on Friday (see chart below). As this happens, a fetch of storm force S’ly winds are expected to wrap around the primary low, and should kick up a new long period S/SE swell that’s currently modelled to arrive mid-late morning on Monday.\nPrior to the arrival of the new swell (early Monday), we’re looking at smaller residual southerly energy across much of Southern NSW. This new pulse of groundswell should however bring some strong sets to exposed regions throughout the afternoon, possibly between 3ft and maybe even 5ft, holding into Tuesday morning too.\nLocal winds look reasonably good at this stage - only light in strength - however a broad, weak front to the south may instigate a southerly regime across the region on Monday, before the synoptic flow swings NE on Tuesday. I’ll reevaluate this in more dateline Friday - but nevertheless it looks like a good swell event for the region.\nFollowing this, it looks like the middle of next week will see a series of smaller S/SE swells originating from trailing fronts skirting the far eastern waters of the Tasman Sea, right along the West Coast of New Zealand’s South Island.\nThe other main feature for the longer term is a deepening trough across the eastern states from Tuesday through Wednesday which should strengthening NE winds about the coast, and kick up a generous short range NE windswell, probably somewhere in the 3-4ft range through Wednesday.

The 160 mph winds peeled roofs off shelters and a police station, knocked down electric poles and stripped humble homes to a few walls.\nCABO SAN LUCAS, Mexico - Felix walloped Central America's remote Miskito coastline and Henriette slammed into resorts on the tip of Baja California as a record-setting hurricane season got even wilder Tuesday with twin storms making landfall on the same day.\nFelix roared ashore before dawn as a Category 5 storm along Nicaragua's remote northeast corner - an isolated, swampy jungle where people get around mainly by canoe. The 160 mph winds peeled roofs off shelters and a police station, knocked down electric poles and stripped humble homes to a few walls.\n\"The metal roofs are coming off like straight razors and flying against the trees and homes,\" Lumberto Campbell, a local official in Puerto Cabezas, near Felix's landfall, told Radio Ya shortly before his phone line went dead.\nEmergency official Samuel Perez said most of the port's buildings were damaged and the dock was destroyed, although there were no reports of deaths.\nBy late afternoon, Felix had weakened to a Category 1 storm with winds of 80 mph. But forecasters were still worried that the tempest would do great damage inland over Honduras and Guatemala. Up to 25 inches of rain was expected to drench the mountain capitals of Tegucigalpa and Guatemala City, where shantytowns cling precariously to hillsides.\nTowns across Honduras were flooding, and residents waded through waist-deep, garbage-strewn water in La Ceiba, on the northern coast.\nIn 1998, Hurricane Mitch parked over the same region for days, causing deadly flooding and mudslides that killed nearly 11,000 people and left more than 8,000 missing.\n\"The major concern now shifts to the threat of torrential rains over the mountains of Central America,\" said senior hurricane specialist Richard Pasch at the National Hurricane Center in Miami.\nThe Honduran government was draining water from behind dams in an attempt to reduce the flooding danger, and 10,000 people were being evacuated from high-risk areas of the capital, mostly from poor neighborhoods and street markets that ring the city.\n\"If they don't do it voluntarily, we will force them,\" Tegucigalpa Mayor Ricardo Alvarez said. \"We have 500 soldiers and 200 police for just that purpose.\"\nAt 5 p.m. EDT, Felix's center was 110 miles west of Puerto Cabezas, moving westward at nearly 14 mph toward Honduras, the U.S. Hurricane Center said.\nIn the Pacific, Henriette's top winds increased to 85 mph and it made landfall just after 2 p.m. on the southern tip of Baja, a resort area popular with Hollywood stars and sports fishermen.\nFew tourists or residents had expected much trouble, but they awoke Tuesday to dangerous winds, closed airports and forecasts of a direct hit.\n\"I've been hearing it from the wife, coming to Cabo during the hurricane season,\" said Derek Dunlap, a 45-year-old engineer from San Francisco. \"I was going to roll the dice, and well, here we go.\"\nFifteen-foot waves chewed away beaches, crashed against seawalls at beachfront hotels and bashed catamarans against their moorings.\nAt 5 p.m. EDT, Henriette's eye was 25 miles inland over the peninsula, on a path to drench Mexico's northern deserts and then drop an inch or two of rain on Arizona and New Mexico in the Southwest on Thursday night. The Mexican government declared a state of emergency in southern Baja California.\nFelix was the 31st Category 5 hurricane seen in the Atlantic since record-keeping began in 1886 - and the eighth in the last five seasons. Some meteorologists say human-caused increases in sea surface temperatures are making storms stronger, while others say the numbers are up because new technology allows us to measure their intensity better.\nIn Guatemala, presidential elections were still scheduled for Sunday, but authorities prepared supplies and equipment for heavy rains and flooding from Felix. In Honduras, schools were closed and 11,000 soldiers went on alert as Tegucigalpa residents emptied supermarket shelves and waited in long lines for gas.\n\"I've been standing in lines for two days at different places to buy food and home supplies,\" said housewife Cristina Segura.\nIn the Nicaraguan mining town of Bonanza, 1,000 refugees crowded into 16 shelters. Mayor Maximo Sevilla said most roads were washed out or blocked by debris.\n\"We are cut off and being beaten by Hurricane Felix ,\" Sevilla told The Associated Press by phone, pleading for help from emergency officials.\nAs soon as Felix moved inland, the Nicaraguan army sent in a planeload of soldiers, life jackets and building materials, joining 700 troops patrolling against looting and clearing debris.\nTuesday was historic for two reasons: It was the first time on record that two Category 5 Atlantic hurricanes made landfall in the same year, with Felix coming two weeks after Hurricane Dean slammed into southern Mexico.\nAnd Atlantic and Pacific hurricanes had never made landfall on the same date, according to records that began in 1949. However, at 5 a.m. on Aug. 24, 1992, Hurricane Andrew devastated southern Florida 23 hours after Lester hit Mexico's Baja California, the Hurricane Center said.\n\"Today hurricanes are becoming increasingly violent. For example, water from the Carribean, the ocean, is two degrees hotter than before,\" Mexican President Felipe Calderon said Tuesday, siding with those who blame climate-change. \"This makes steam rise off the ocean more quickly: Hurricanes form faster and are more violent.\"\nDr. Chris Landsea, science operations officer at the National Hurricane Center, agreed that global warming is a factor - but a very small one.\n\"All of the studies suggest that by the end of this century, hurricanes may become stronger by five percent because of global warming. So a 100-miles-per-hour hurricane would be 105 miles per hour,\" he said. \"Most of what we're seeing is natural fluctuations.\"\nHenriette's leading edge brought driving rain and 15-foot waves that sent plumes of whitewater 30 feet high at the main Cabo San Lucas marina. Waves also washed away sand and licked at the walls of beachfront hotels. Catamarans crashed against their moorings and palm trees bent in the wind.\nCynthia White, a 64-year-old retiree from Fort Myers, Fla., watched waves nearly cover the resort's famous rock arch after her deep-sea fishing trip was canceled.\n\"We're Florida tourists, so we know what it's about,\" White said. \"It didn't ruin the vacation, but it ain't helping the case.\"\nHenriette claimed seven lives even before it strengthened into a hurricane.\nCarnival Cruise Lines and Royal Caribbean Cruises changed itineraries for six cruises to avoid ports in the area.\nAssociated Press writers Freddy Cuevas in Tegicugalpa, Honduras; Filadelfo Aleman in Managua, Nicaragua; Traci Carl in Mexico City; Jennifer Kay in Miami; and Arthur H. Rotstein in Tucson, Ariz., contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

After the spring storms, Texas experienced what meteorologists called a “flash drought” followed by Memorial Day weekend flooding in parts of Central Texas that claimed more than two dozen lives. In early June, flooding continued from the Red River to the Texas coast.\nCouncil spokesman Mark Hanna says paid residential property losses in April and May were close to $900 million from 114,000 claims. These losses did not include business or auto claims. The same months last year had about 72,000 claims and $650 million in paid losses.\nTexas homeowners and businesses reported almost 8,000 flood claims to the National Flood Insurance Program from the spring storms.\nIn comparison, the total number of flood claims from all of Louisiana, Arkansas and Oklahoma for the same time period was 579.\n“Windstorm losses in both April and May were much higher than 2013 and 2014,” said\nMark Hanna, a spokesman for the Insurance Council of Texas. “There wasn’t one catastrophic storm that caused all of the damage. It was a non-stop pattern of severe storms that literally blanketed the entire state.”\nCouncil officials say, with 95 percent of the claims settled, Texas flood losses to homes and businesses topped $400 million. Texas insurers say losses from vehicles in floodwaters added $300 million.\nGreg Carbin, meteorologist with the Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma,\ndescribed our springtime weather as “incredibly extreme.”\nCarbin said, “The combination of severe hail, tornadoes, and especially heavy rainfall, was devastating in some areas. Above normal severe weather activity was most prominent over northwest and central portions of the state. Historic rain and flooding extended across many areas.”\nIn June, the rainfall suddenly stopped and by the end of the summer, wild\nfires started erupting in north and central Texas with the Bastrop area getting hit the worst with the loss of nearly 60 homes.\n“As soon as fall arrived, the drought-like conditions turned to another round of severe\nflooding in much of central and southeast Texas. Record rainfall flooded homes and submerged vehicles in the Austin and Houston areas,” Hanna said. “Total auto insurance losses for 2015 could reach $1 billion.”\nThe Insurance Council of Texas is the nation’s largest state insurance trade association.\nWas this article valuable?\nHere are more articles you may enjoy.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Our top 13 most polluted cities [in North America] are actually in Canada.” Fort McMurray and Peace River in Alberta, along with Yellowknife, took the top three regional spots.\nAs the climate warms, priming conditions for longer and more intense wildfire seasons, experts say protecting our air quality will be critical to our health and development.\nThe report measured annual average concentrations of fine particulate matter designated as PM2.5 — linked to numerous health issues — from more than 30,000 air quality monitoring stations around the world.\nIt then compared those amounts to the World Health Organization’s air quality guidelines.\nOnly 10 out of 134 countries featured in the report fell into that acceptable range.\nCanada ranked 93rd, with an annual average PM2.5 concentration of 10.3 micrograms per cubic metre of air (μg/m³) — considered two to three times beyond the WHO’s recommended level.\nThe more populous U.S., for comparison, had an annual average concentration of 9.1. Daily and hourly amounts were not included, but it’s worth noting some Canadian cities crossed PM2.5 concentrations many times higher on particularly smoky days.\nSarah Henderson, scientific director of Environmental Health Services at the B.C. Centre for Disease Control (CDC), says it adds uncertainty to the gains made on air quality in North America.\n“We’ve reduced what cars can emit, we’ve reduced what industry can emit and you see these air quality improvements,” Henderson said. “Wildfire smoke is a wild card. We don’t get to regulate that.”\nSmall size, big impact\nPM2.5 refers to particulate matter that’s less than 2.5 microns in diameter. For context, the width of a human hair is around 75 microns.\n“These are really, really small particles,” explains Sumil Thakrar, environmental scientist at the University of Minnesota. Wildfires spew these particles out and their small size allows them to travel far — and deep.\n“When you breathe them in, they can deposit deep into your respiratory system and they can actually pass from your lungs into the bloodstream,” said Thakrar.\nPM2.5 is a well-known health risk, and beyond inflaming and irritating the lungs, experts say it can cause cardiovascular issues like heart attacks and strokes as well as potentially long-term and short-term neurological issues.\n“The really important thing to keep in mind is that there’s no safe amount of particulate matter to inhale,” says Dr. Anne Hicks, pediatric respirologist at Stollery Children’s Hospital in Edmonton.\nHicks works with children with severe asthma and allergies, but they’re not the only ones at risk during smoky days from intense wildfires. She notes children tend to be more active, and their physiology means they have a faster breathing rate.\n“A kid sitting still will breathe in more chemical particles than an adult who’s sitting still,” Hicks said.\n‘Like an elephant sitting on my chest’\nSitting still indoors is not where Payton Knight wants to be. Her mom, Alyssa, says the 12-year-old loves the outdoors and being with the animals on their farm southeast of Edmonton. Last year’s wildfires made it harder.\n“It reeked,” described Payton, who lives with complex asthma and allergies. “It’s like an elephant sitting on my chest. It gets harder and harder for me to breathe every time.”\nAlyssa said she noticed a problem when Payton would ask for her rescue inhalers more often, just to get a few hours of relief at a time.\n“And it came to a point where I had to be like ‘OK, no more going outside, we have to stay inside’,” Alyssa said. While she and Payton have “backup plans to backup plans” when it comes to her health, they are still nervous about this year — especially an upcoming family wedding in B.C. that’s potentially outdoors.\n“Something that everyone looks forward to like going to their aunty’s wedding and being a part of that…. It’s now, because of our current climate, turned into something nerve-racking.”\nPlan ahead for smoky days and weeks\nHicks advises patients, parents and schools to develop action plans for smoky days — including moving recess indoors, rearranging schedules for outdoor sports and getting kids used to wearing personal protection like masks. The long-term value of kids avoiding particulate exposure is high.\n“We’ve shown that when air quality improves and when pollutants go down, kids grow stronger, healthier, bigger lungs,” Hicks told CBC News from her office in Edmonton, “And they have better lung function, and that lasts a lifetime.”\nHenderson at the B.C. CDC says since everyone is exposed, efforts and interventions to improve air quality can have profound effects.\n“You can make really big gains by actually making small changes that improve the air everyone is breathing.”\nOne of the tools Canadians can use to know about air quality in their area is the Air Quality Health Index, or AQHI. It measures PM2.5 as well as two other pollutants, nitrogen oxide and ozone, combining the risk into a score out of 10.\nBut Amy Li, air quality researcher and assistant professor at the University of Waterloo, says it shouldn’t be the only measure you rely on to gauge personal risk.\n“You only have one to two air quality stations per city,” Li said. “So even if you see the numbers from the nearest weather station, it may not be a good representation of the exposure you’re getting.”\nBoth Hicks and Li advise using your senses as well. If it looks hazy and smells like smoke, these are good signs to tell if you’re getting exposed to higher than safe amounts of particulate matter. Li also suggests that better air filters for your ventilation systems can help on smoky days you’re forced to be indoors with the windows closed.\n“Take actions now,” Li told CBC News from Kitchener, Ont. “I think it may be a little bit late if we only start to react during the wildfire smoke. I think now is a good time to make improvements to your existing systems [and] find the right filters.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Although it is located around the desert region, once every few years it also receives its share of wetter than usual Indian monsoon. And this year in 2016, this part of India is once again flooded as are several other parts of India including Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata and in the recent memory, many other parts such as Kashmir and Chennai. These intense weather patterns in India are of course not isolated incidents as they are matched with similar examples of droughts, hurricanes, typhoons, floods, and other natural disasters throughout the world.\nWhile it is common to read analyses by scholars in which the rise of global terrorism is at least partially blamed on American foreign policy, how can the rise in recent natural disasters be explained? It is true that unplanned and mismanaged urbanization has insufficient ways to deal with natural disasters in most of the African and Asian countries. The effects and the response for these disasters will definitely need to be handled by the local administrations but is the underlying cause for the increasing disasters?\nAs we know, natural disasters are not new phenomena for our planet and for millions of years, humans have survived them but the underlying cause for the recent upsurge in these disasters is indeed rooted in the recent human activities. Here is how the Nobel prize winning scientists of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change are cited on the NASA website:\nClimate change may not be responsible for the recent skyrocketing cost of natural disasters, but it is very likely that it will impact future catastrophes. Climate models provide a glimpse of the future, and while they do not agree on all of the details, most models predict a few general trends. First, according to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, an increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere will probably boost temperatures over most land surfaces, though the exact change will vary regionally. More uncertain--but possible--outcomes of an increase in global temperatures include increased risk of drought and increased intensity of storms, including tropical cyclones with higher wind speeds, a wetter Asian monsoon, and, possibly, more intense mid-latitude storms. (For more information, see Global Warming: Potential Effects of Global Warming).\nUntil recently, USA has been the leading country for the greenhouse gas emissions thus the biggest reason for climate change and yet, very little change in American lifestyle or energy consumption or food habits has been accepted in the USA even as America continue to directly or indirectly preach other countries how to \"develop.\" American appetite for beef (cattle meat) is another leading cause for massive deforestation across the world, fueling further the climate change and thus more natural disasters and yet no foreseeable change in decreasing the beef craze in America.\nFor the majority of the scientists and environmentalists, the above underlying cause for the upsurge in natural disasters and climate change is now common knowledge but for the American administration, this still seems like a blind spot. Sooner, they realize the problem, sooner they will begin to address it and prove their accountability not only to the American taxpayers but also to the mother earth and mother nature.\nSeveral scientists in the late 20th century had coined a phrase the butterfly effect. It explained rather poetically that even flapping of a butterfly in one part of the world can cause hurricanes in other remote parts of the world. We in America are certainly much more significant players than a mere butterfly as far as our carbon footprints are to be counted as the cause for climate change and natural disasters.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This study examines sources of predictability for the number of landfalling typhoons in East China on seasonal (June–October) and sub‐seasonal time scales. East China landfall count is shown to be independent of basin‐scale properties of TC tracks, such the genesis location, duration, basin track direction and length, and basin total count. Large‐scale environmental climate indices which are potential basin scale drivers are also shown to be largely uncorrelated with landfall prior to and throughout the season. The most important factor is the steering in the final stages to landfall. The seasonal landfall is strongly anti‐correlated with the more local zonal mid‐tropospheric wind field over the East China sea (r = −.61, p < .001). It is proposed that geopotential height anomalies over Korea/Japan cause anomalous easterly winds in the East China Sea and enhance landfall rates by steering typhoons onto the coast. Early, peak, and late sub‐seasonal landfall counts are shown to be independent of each other yet share this predictor. This local feature may be dynamically predictable allowing a potential hybrid dynamical‐statistical seasonal forecast of landfall.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

There were a few minor spinouts yesterday morning, but \"thankfully nothing too serious in nature,\" he said.\nBy 10 a.m. yesterday, Hudson had already received 3.3 inches of rain, Newton 4.9 inches and Natick had 3.1 inches, according to the National Weather Service in Taunton.\nThe Boston-area received 6.9 inches of rainfall for the month as of Saturday night. The average monthly rainfall totals 1.4 inches, according to National Weather Service meteorologist Alan Dunham.\nFlood warnings remained in effect overnight for Northern Worcester County, and all of Middlesex, Norfolk and Suffolk counties, Dunham said.\nThere's a flood warning for the Assabet River, which was expected to reach flood level by 9 last night, and rise to 7.1 feet by tomorrow afternoon, according to the weather service.\nThere's also one for the Sudbury River, which reached 9.1 feet at 10 a.m. yesterday and was expected to reach flood stage of 10 feet by last night, Dunham said.\nThe Sudbury River is expected to reach 12.6 feet by 8 a.m. tomorrow.\nAnd no surprises about the weather this week. Today's forecast includes rain with highs in the mid-50s, tomorrow will bring more showers with temperatures in the mid-60s, and Wednesday will be mostly cloudy, with peaks of sunshine, and a 40 percent chance of rain, according to the weather service.\n(Lisa Gentes can be reached at 508-490-7461 or firstname.lastname@example.org.)","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Local sources of pollution partly contributed to the increased toxicity, particularly in high-pollution areas such as ports, oil refineries, and dense urban areas. In the highly urbanised and industrialised Klang Valley of Malaysia in particular, the surrounding terrain acted as a natural retainer of polluted air, aggravating the situation when the haze set in.\nThere is also a link to El Niño. The haze was made worse than during previous occurrences by the El Niño-Southern Oscillation which delayed the year's monsoon season. Fires in Kalimantan produce great amounts of smoke, burn a long time and are difficult to extinguish because they are on peatland, and once lit the fires can burn for months and release gases that produce sulfuric acid.\nAir quality across the region appeared to improve in late October as heavy rainfall doused fires in Indonesia.\nWhile the haze largely spared Singapore with 24-hour Pollutant Standards Index readings within the \"Good\" range for 15 days in September and the rest in the \"Moderate\" range and no higher than a reading of 66, its harmful effects became more prevalent in October.\nOn 7 October 2006, the 3-hour PSI reading breached the 100 mark at 8 a.m. and entered unhealthy levels for the first time in the year, as winds from neighbouring Sumatra blew the haze to Singapore. At 10 a.m., it hit 130, the highest in three years, before subsiding to 80 at 4 p.m. and climbing rapidly to 150 at 9 p.m., the worst since 1997, before ending the day at 136, still in the unhealthy range.\nAlthough the air quality was set to improve with the arrival of the Northeast monsoon rains in mid-October, southeasterly winds extended the hazy season. A mild El Niño effect delayed the starting of the showers to late October or early November, or even until the end of November. The prolonged haze could be attributed to the extended dry season, which put the rains on hold and affected wind patterns which brought the haze to Singapore. Intermittent showers could occur in the pre-monsoon period, but these would do little in increasing air quality. The unpredictable winds in the pre-monsoon period could bring haze from either Sumatra or Kalimantan.\nAir quality remained in the moderate range for the next week until 14 October, when the 3-hour PSI readings gradually increased from 53 at 6 a.m. to peak at an unhealthy 116 at 10 p.m. This time, majority of the haze came from Kalimantan.\nSimilarly, on 15 October, the PSI readings increased from 69 at 6 a.m. to 98 at 3 p.m. and 4 p.m., 3 points short of reaching the unhealthy range. This eased to 82 by midnight. As winds remained southeasterly, haze from Kalimantan blew across the South China Sea to Singapore.\nThe next day, on 16 October, the PSI stayed in the 80s in the morning, before shooting up once again into the unhealthy range, hitting a high of 130 at 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. The 3-hour PSI remained in unhealthy levels for 8 consecutive hours, between 2 p.m. and 9 p.m. The haze obscured the sun, and symptoms of exposure to haze resurfaced in the general population. The 24-hour PSI for 16 October reached 98, just 3 points short of unhealthy. Visibility dropped to as low as 1 km in some areas, compared to the usual 20 km.\nThe PSI on 17 October gradually increased from the moderate range in the morning to slip into the unhealthy range at 4 p.m., reaching 106, before declining back to 100 in the moderate range at 10 p.m. The hazy conditions were expected to persist.\nThroughout the early morning on 20 October, the PSI kept in the 90s, before reaching a high of 103 at 8 a.m. This dropped to 74 by 7 p.m., although the PSI remained in the 90s in the afternoon. Even though rain fell in some areas, this was not enough to \"alleviate the haze situation\". The NEA forecast thunderstorms over the weekend, but the southeasterly winds would continue to prevail. The 24-hour PSI on 20 October also reached the unhealthy range at 102.\nLater in October, though, the situation began to improve, with the PSI hitting a low of 11 at 2 p.m. on 26 October.\nHowever, in early November, intermonsoonal winds brought slight haze back to Singapore, with the 3-hour PSI in the moderate range most of the time.\nThe highest 3-hour average PSI recorded prior to that point 226 in September 1997.\nWhile some Singaporeans began donning face masks, others frequented shopping malls and public places like VivoCity, with many shopping before Deepavali at Little India, and going to Geylang Serai's annual Hari Raya bazaar. Stallholders said that the haze had not affected their business. However, Singaporeans generally kept indoors, with some staying away from East Coast Park.\nThe government announced plans for a haze action plan if the situation became \"extremely dangerous\", which included priority treatment for haze-related illnesses. Health Minister Khaw Boon Wan said that there was \"very little that (could) be done to stop the haze\", and advised people to remain indoors, especially those with prior respiratory conditions.\nSome minor haze-related illness began to surface, but free clinics across the island did not report any increase in patients with this symptoms. However, attendance figures at polyclinics islandwide increased by 600 cases to about 15,000 cases of haze-related conditions in the first week of October as compared to the same period last month. This is despite the National Healthcare Group reporting that the number of people \"complaining of the same ailments\" has decreased from the same period last year.\nAir purifier sales shot up during the hazy period. Best Denki, an electronic store, sold S$350,000 worth of air purifiers and related items in 4 days, a 300 percent increase. However, experts from the Institute of Environmental Science & Engineering at the Nanyang Technological University said that only some of these products, like High Efficiency Particulate air filters, would effectively remove small particles from air. Other kinds of air purifiers like ionizing purifiers gave off ozone which could cause symptoms similar to those caused by the haze. The experts recommended regularly cleaning the filter media and opening windows to get some fresh air at night.\nThe western region, which includes Boon Lay, Choa Chu Kang and Jurong, seemed to be the \"epicentre\" of the haze. Residents there complained of the worse conditions in their area, saying that it felt \"hotter than usual\", and health problems were more widespread. The air quality levels in the west have consistently been the worst, but only by several points. Some speculated that the more polluted air was caused by the many construction sites and industrial parks in Jurong and Tuas, but NEA refuted this, claiming that they did not contribute to the haze. Polyclinics in Jurong and Bukit Batok have an increase of 20 percent for patients with respiratory problems and asthma.\nSchools islandwide restricted outdoor activities and had to rethink post-examination activities and training or revert to wet-weather programmes. The Singapore Sports School's swim team had to cut back on training when the haze reached unhealthy levels even though they were in the midst of various international competitions. The Ministry of Education recommended that schools suspend all outdoor activities when the PSI reading passes 100, but some schools chose to move indoors regardless of the PSI.\nMany Singaporean \"fitness buffs\" have also made the move indoors. Fitness clubs reported increases in turn-outs and check-ins, utilizing gym facilities rather than outdoor activities. Rock climbers were also affected, and began to move activities indoors instead.\nThe National Environment Agency website received about 170,000 hits on 14 October, as compared to the usual 60,000, and caused the server to temporarily go down due to the sheer volume of traffic.\nAccording to economists, Singapore suffered a US$50 million economic loss due to the onset of the haze in 2006.\n|24-hour PSI readings in October 2006|\n0–50 Good 51–100 Moderate 101–200 Unhealthy 201–300 Very unhealthy 301- Hazardous\n<ref>tags exist, but no\n<references/>tag was found","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The decision is based on a recommendation of the state veterinarian.\nThe National Weather Service has issued an excessive heat warning for northern, eastern and central Texas effective through 7 p.m. Sunday. Forecasts called for high temperatures of almost 110 degrees (43 Celsius) all weekend.\nMother Nature is bringing the heat at the home ballpark of the Texas Rangers.\nThe temperature was 107 degrees (41.6 Celsius) for the first pitch just after 7 p.m. Friday, when the Rangers played the Cleveland Indians in their first game after the All-Star break. It was the highest temperature ever at the start of a game at the Texas ballpark, which is in its 25th season — and the second-warmest in the majors this season.\nWhen the Los Angeles Angels hosted the Dodgers on July 7, it was 108 degrees (42.2 Celsius) at first pitch, a record for a game in Anaheim, California.\nAt Texas, there were two games with 106-degree (41.1-Celsius) temperatures in 2011 during an extended stretch of warm weather and 100-degree days in North Texas.\nThere will be extreme heat for the entire series against the Indians. The expected high on Saturday is 109 degrees (42.8 Celsius), when the teams again play at night, and the forecast for Sunday’s afternoon finale calls for a high of 108 (42.2 Celsius).\nTexas prison officials are offering cold water, cold showers and opportunities to cool off in air-conditioned chapels and offices to thousands of inmates in lock-ups without central air-conditioning in a wide swath of the state under an excessive-heat warning.\nTexas Department of Criminal Justice spokesman Jeremy Desel says the policy was expanded statewide for the first time in the agency’s history on Friday.\nThe measures come after a class-action settlement in May filed by six inmates who contended the oppressive heat at the Wallace Pack Unit in southeast Texas was unconstitutionally cruel punishment.\nA federal judge ruled last summer the nation’s largest prison system was “deliberately indifferent” to the heat risks at the Pack unit. The settlement ordered the agency to come up with a plan to keep the heat index there no higher than 88 degrees (31 Celsius).\nIncluding Pack, Texas has 29 air-conditioned prisons. Another 75 are either partially cooled or have no cooling. About one in five beds overall are considered air-conditioned. Texas has about 145,000 inmates.\nScorching heat is spreading across much of the South, where temperatures are expected to soar over 100 degrees.\nThe National Weather Service posted heat advisories and warnings Friday from the New Mexico-Texas border eastward to parts of Alabama.\nTexas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi and west Tennessee were all under heat advisories or warnings Friday morning.\nForecasters say the hot temperatures will combine with high humidity, which could be lethal to some people.

This transition will soon be followed by the emergence of La Nina. But what exactly is La Nina, and should we be concerned about it?\n“El Nino is expected to reach neutrality by May, June, July 2024,” stated BMKG’s Head, Dwikorita Karnawati, during a virtual press conference.\nLa Nina is predicted to make its presence felt starting from July 2024. However, it is anticipated to weaken after the third quarter, from July to September.\nSeveral forecasts align with these expectations, including one from the Institute for Climate and Society (IRI).\n“Although the climatological probability of La Nina occurring during the boreal summer of 2024 (June-September) is significant, it is most likely to manifest between July and September 2024 and beyond,” as per IRI’s official statement.\nEl Nino and La Nina are two distinct weather phenomena. Here’s a breakdown of their differences, as outlined by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration:\nEl Nino, which means “the child” in Spanish, occurs when trade winds weaken, leading to the eastward movement of warm water towards the west coast of America.\nThis warm water influences weather patterns. For example, regions in the northern US and Canada experience drier and warmer conditions, while areas along the Gulf Coast and Southeastern US face increased precipitation and flood risks.\nEl Nino also affects marine ecosystems. During normal conditions in the Pacific Ocean, upwelling brings cold, nutrient-rich water from the depths to the surface.\nHowever, during El Nino events, upwelling weakens or halts altogether. This disruption in nutrient supply leads to a decline in phytoplankton populations, impacting the entire marine food chain.\nAnother consequence is the migration of tropical species to colder regions, such as yellowfin tuna and albacore tuna.\nIn contrast, La Nina brings cooler ocean temperatures due to enhanced upwelling, which brings cold, nutrient-rich water to the surface.\nThese colder waters contribute to drought conditions in the southern US and increased rainfall with flood risks in the northwest Pacific and Canada.\nLa Nina also influences winter temperatures, making them warmer in the southern regions and colder in the northern regions. Additionally, it tends to intensify storm activity.\nDespite these potential impacts, La Nina can also benefit marine life by attracting cold-water species like squid and salmon to regions like the California coast.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Storms had formed out in Kansas and western Missouri late on the 8th and moved across the St. Louis region early on the 9th, setting up an outflow boundary over southeastern Missouri and southern Illinois. These early morning storms left behind clouds that lingered through the morning, causing temperatures to be a little cooler, which is not a good thing if you want convection later in the day. That changed quickly, as by 10-11am, it got uncomfortably warm and muggy with breaks in the clouds. The previously mentioned outflow boundary was forecast to push northward as a warm front and serve as the lifting mechanism for storms, which models had firing around 3-4pm. Parameters along this boundary were good enough for supercells and maybe a quick tornado or two. At about 3pm, a storm fired over Arnold, MO and quickly became supercellular as it moved into southern Illinois. Michelle and I left St. Louis and headed eastward on I-64, skirting the northern edge of its forward flank. We finally got a clear view of it north of Mascoutah, IL. At first, it was not visually impressive:\nBut within about 10 minutes, it began to really pull itself together, as it was displaying some decent mid-level features:\nWe made our way south into Mascoutah, at which point the storm was approaching the city limits:\nThis was a rather unsettling scene, given that school had let out and so many people were out walking, unaware of the impending storm. While it wasn't tornado-warned, or even severe-warned at the time, it still posed a threat and could have intensified at any minute. If the storm were to have done so, it fortunately skimmed the northern part of town. We continued out of Mascoutah to the east, stopping off of Highway 177 to watch it as it passed just north of town:\nAfter this point, the storm cycled and temporarily lost any good low-level features as it made its way eastward toward New Baden, IL. We tracked south of it on Highway 177 and then went directly toward it on Highway 168, at which point it was over New Baden and exhibiting a well-defined wall cloud:\nWe continued east of New Baden and watched as the storm moved over Albers and Germantown, IL, still maintaining a healthy wall cloud (first photo below). At the same time, another supercell had developed to our west and was tracking along the same path as the first (second photo below).\nWe followed the first storm to Posey, IL, and watched as it gave one last try (photo below). Unfortunately, its low-level features disintegrated due to a strong rear flank downdraft surge shortly thereafter. The storm still survived several hours after this, but never really became organized again.\nThe previously mentioned second storm was still following the same track as the first and still going strong. We sat in place and watched as it approached from the west; putting off a lot of lightning and displaying a nice wall cloud:\nAs it drew closer, we dove south on Highway 127, getting off Sassafras Rd. (mentioned only because it's fun to say). This put us just to the south of where the storm would pass and offered a clear view of the meso as it really geared up. A drastic RFD surge cut into the meso, throwing out some dramatic coloring and almost getting things to spin just enough for a tornado:\nWe went further south to New Minden, IL and then followed the storm to the northeast of Hoyleton, IL, but it wasn't able to re-organize and became as bland as the storm before it. At this point, a cluster of storms had formed to our west. We could see on radar that there were some weak, embedded supercellular structures in the mess. However, nothing stood out as chase-able, so we decided to make our way back to St. Louis. That did, however, mean that we would have to punch through said mess. As we began to head north to the interstate, we started to see some faint storm structure to the west, associated with the leading edge of the storms. We pulled off and watched it approach, and luckily for us, the portion heading for us started to get its act together, both on radar and visually:\nWe raced back the way we just came to get south of it, as it began to really pull together and display some nice coloring (first photo below). We stopped north of Hoyleton to grab some quick pictures as the meso began to really broaden (second photo below).\nAt this point we still weren't 100% sure what we were dealing with. It seemed like it was trying to go supercellular, but visually and on radar, it just didn't look convincing. We quickly tried to get south of it...right when it did decide what it wanted to do. A massive rear flank downdraft surge pushed a circulation across the road in front of us. This circulation really started to spin just to the east of the road, kicking up small debris and causing power flashes (photo below). I swore a tornado was going to form right outside the car window. Luckily for the farm beneath the circulation, nothing happened. We continued into Hoyleton where we tried to decide if it was worth it to continue to chase it. Like the other storms, it made our decision easy by falling apart, so we decided to make our way back home to St. Louis.\nMake sure to check out the timelapse below for clips of all three supercells from this days chase!\nThe Storm Prediction Center's summary for this event can be found HERE.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

There was also little reason to believe that conditions will change dramatically, said State Climatologist Nolan Doesken.\n“Statistically, there is really only a 1 in 10 chance that we will get back to or above average by the peak snowpack accumulation time in April,” Doesken said. “So there’s a 9 in 10 chance that we will reach spring with the snowpack below average.”\nFollowing a rather disastrous 2012, reservoir levels were hit fairly hard. The big lakes on the Western Slope — Lake Granby and Green Mountain Reservoir — were at 56 and 68 percent of capacity, respectively. On the Eastern Slope, Horsetooth Reservoir and Carter Lakes were at 51 and 61 percent of capacity, respectively.\n“The South Platte reservoirs (on the Eastern Slope) should all fill,” said Reagan Waskom, director of the Colorado Water Institute at Colorado State University. “Of course, that depends on when people actually start calling water. If people start calling for water in April or May, when those reservoirs should be filling…”\nMarch, historically the wettest month of the year in Colorado, may prove even more critical this year. Last year, March proved to be the harbinger of a drought that affected much of the Midwest, and led to what was coined a “flash drought” through most of the Corn Belt.\n“In all my years in Colorado, that was the first time I saw a March without any measurable snow,” Doesken said. “March was so warm over most of the U.S. that it really set off what they called a flash drought.”\nEssentially, there were few indications that drought was setting in onthe Midwest Plains, but the warm March set off plant growth early and then sparse precipitation in the following months just kept drying out the ground. The drying ground across the Midwest meant little evaporation, meaning the dry conditions kept compounding.\nDoesken said the flash-drought condition doesn’t really affect much of Colorado, except for perhaps the most eastern plains, though dry conditions here certainly help set off the domino effect for the Corn Belt.\n“I had not heard that term used that much, but if definitely got talked about last summer,” Doesken said. “Through May and early June, most of the Midwest was just a little dry and a little warm, so people really didn’t see what was coming at them.\n“There were just a small number of consecutive days without precipitation — sunshine and hot temperatures — and drought really blossomed over the Corn Belt.”\nNow that much of the Midwest and West are in a full-blown drought, people are paying a great deal of attention.\nWaskom said Colorado farmers, by and large, did OK last summer, with the higher prices offsetting reduced production. This summer’s water situation, however, may be affected by depleted reservoir levels and the fact that Greeley and Fort Collins will pull more Colorado Big-Thompson water to make up for Poudre River water that will probably be unusable due to runoff from the High Park Fire.\n“I think folks are nervous thinking about what they are going to do,” Waskom said. “With Fort Collins and Greeley, there’s going to be a lot less C-BT available for lease.\n“If you are growing grass, you are going to use less water. If you are growing real crops you are thinking about planting fewer acres. How many acres you are planting may depend on the chemicals on your land. Crop rotation can’t turn on a dime.”\nIf there was any good news, it would be that the relatively dry winter of 2010-2011 was followed by an incredibly wet spring in Northern Colorado and record runoff. Things were incredibly dry to the south, however, with I-70 often cited as being the dividing line between the “have water” and “have nots.”\n“We were going into a La Nina condition (a noticeable cooling of western Pacific equatorial waters) and the forecast that goes with that really held,” Doesken said.\nThis year, National Weather Service climate forecasters expected an El Nino pattern to develop, which usually brings more precipitation to southern states. But neither El Nino nor La Nina developed.\n“We just got off the phone with the climate forecasters and basically they said there are no indicators present that have any predictive skill in telling us what the spring is going to be like,” Doesken said.\n“What I don’t like abut the current condition is the spatial extent (with drought covering much of the West and Midwest). The storms are basically hitting just the northern and eastern fringe of the nation.\n“The drought area is large and the chances of recovering over a short time and over a large area are very few.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

By and large, people are being fooled by the phenomenon of global-warming. The devil, on the other hand clearly knows Biblical prophecy.\nThe devil knows the earth will heat up. It is as written in the Holy Bible. Extreme heat is just one more form of judgement as prophet Isaiah prophesied – extreme heat so severe that it kills people:\n‘Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men are left’ (Isaiah 24.6)\nIn addition to Isaiah, John the Apostle writes in the book of Revelation about similar end time events. The book of Revelation predicts intense weather as part of God’s judgement upon the nations in end times. The Bible talks about fierce, scorching heat.\n‘The fourth angel poured out his bowl upon the sun, and it was given to it to scorch men with fire. Men were scorched with fierce heat …’ (Revelation 16.8, 9)\nIran experienced a steaming 164 degrees (73 Celsius) heat index reading which was extraordinarily high on Friday July 31. At this point, Iran’s heat index was almost on the verge of breaking that world record as it came within a few degrees short of the 2003 heat index record in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia, which was a suffocating 178 degrees (81 Celsius).\nAccording to the meteorological experts, Iran is experiencing hottest temperatures “ever endured by humankind.” In this regard, Accu Weather meteorologist Anthony Saglia told The Telegraph, “That was one of the most incredible temperature observations I have ever seen, and it is one of the most extreme readings ever in the world.”\nMoreover, on the same weekend in which Iran aired threats to “annihilate” Israel, after finalising a nuclear deal with global powers, a torrid heat wave struck it. The current heat wave, some say is a WARNING by the Almighty Himself.\nIt was soon after, that Iran empathized with Pakistan; which suffered a potent blow of the heat wave which caused deaths during Ramadan, it was now Iran’s turn to bear it. In line with the National Weather Service, at a heat index above 125 degrees “heat stroke is very likely”. Earlier this summer, a relentless heat wave killed over 1,200 people.\nIn order to illustrate, the extent of heat Iran got, bear in mind that the highest-known heat index recorded in history was 178 degrees and Iran was hit by 164 degrees. Now take into consideration that 165 and 178 degrees is a temperature at which you might want setting your oven which is a safe minimum cooking temperature for any number of foods.\nKuwait, on the other hand nearly matched a record of highest recorded temperature in all of Asia which was 129 degrees. Last Thursday July 30, temprature hit 127 degrees (52.8 Celsius) in Mitribah.\nIraq, also came in for a pounding, as on Sunday August 1, temperature was expected to hit over 120 degrees (49 Celsius) for the eight day consecutively. On Saturday, temperatures in Baghdad were over 120 degree, being alike since four days consecutively. Astonishingly, it has been over 100 degrees (37.8 Celsius) every day since all the way back to May 30.\nWhat is noteworthy here that the current heat waves are striking, countries where Christians are being persecuted the most. Iran, Pakistan, Iraq these are all hubs of persecution of Christians in one way or another. Could this be judgement being executed by the Almighty in places where the blood of His saints is being constantly shed.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Hyperbole and unnecessarily hype does no one any good in the long run.\nHaving said that, I want to hit home that this incoming shot of cold air is something this part of the country does not see very often. In fact, it has been quite a few years since we saw a blast of cold air of this significance. Many in NC will have 67-72 hours below freezing. That in an of itself, while impressive, is not a huge deal.\nThe big deal is just how cold it will be. Many spots will drop into the single digits tonight, especially near and north of I-40. Winds will be an issue, and most of the region will experience wind chill values below zero tonight through tomorrow morning.\nHIGHS tomorrow will likely fail to reach 20 in many Triad and Triangle locations and will likely struggle to the low to mid 20s around Charlotte. Winds will continue to pump wind chill values at least into the single digits and possibly below 0 at times through the day.\nThe arctic high pressure then settles overhead tomorrow night into Friday morning, and temps will be even colder than tonight. Foothill and piedmont NC spots will likely see lows between 0 and 9 degrees in many areas, and I fully expect some of the traditionally-colder spots to dip below 0. Highs will top out in the 20s Friday.\nFolks, this is serious cold. Pipe-bursting cold. Please check on anybody you know that might not have adequate heating. Pets need to be inside. Your cars need to have adequate anti-freeze. Take precautions.\nFor more on all of this, plus our upcoming wintry weather chances, please see the video embedded in post below this one.\nToday's video: Biggest deal is the coldest air in years arrive, but more wintry precip to discuss too. Make sure you watch til the end of the video for a detailed look at temps:\nAn incredible blast of arctic air headed our way as well as more potential wintry precip:\nI am a husband, father of five, and meteorologist.

The layer is made up of the partially decayed organic material that accumulates on the ground. The high humidity keeps the smoke low to the ground.\nThe towns most impacted by the smoke include Evesham, Medford, Medford Lakes and Shamong in Burlington County and Berlin, Voorhees and Waterford in Camden County.\nFire crews are still present near the fire to improve containment lines, keep an eye on hotspots and monitor conditions.\nBlame it on the (lack of) steady rain\nThe smell will persist until there is significant rainfall over the area on the edge of the Wharton State Forest, according to the Forest Fire Service.\nNew Jersey 101.5 Chief Meteorologist Dan Zarrow said the humidity will remain high through the weekend. There is a chance of thunderstorms with some downpours Friday and Saturday, which is not the steady rainfall that the Forest Fire Service is hoping for.\nThe best chance of an extended period of rain is Wednesday and Thursday as a cold front moves across the state, according to Zarrow. The biggest wildcard is Hurricane Lee, a Category 4 storm whose exact track won't be determined until at least five days before any impact.\n\"If there are alarm bells to be rung, we will do so early next week. This is still a highly uncertain forecast — the storm is 2,000 miles away, after all,\" Zarrow said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In Prince Edward County, wind gusts exceeded 130 km/h, knocking down tree limbs and power lines, and tearing shingles and siding from buildings. Approximately 140,000 homes and businesses in Ontario lost power. At the Toronto Buttonville Municipal Airport winds flipped over two light planes. Fierce winds also sent spent Christmas trees airborne, scattered recycling boxes, and forced a large section of downtown Toronto to be closed when debris started plummeting from 58 stories above to the streets below. Tens of thousands of people who work in Toronto's financial district were forced underground. GO Transit commuters were also delayed because chain-link fencing and other debris blew onto tracks.\nHighway 400 Wrecking Yard\nOn January 20, a highly localized squall turned Highway 400 north of Toronto into a parking lot of twisted metal, trapping several people in their vehicles in bitter cold. More than 100 vehicles were involved in chain-reaction accidents caused by blinding, wind-whipped whiteouts. It was snowing so hard that conditions resembled dense fog. Dozens of people were injured in the crashes, but no one was killed, in part because poor visibility had already forced drivers to slow down. Buses were brought in to remove shivering folks stuck in sub-zero temperatures that were made even colder by fierce winds.\nProvince-wide Power Outages\nAt the end of January, the combination of wicked winter chill, strong winds, and whiteout conditions left about 90,000 Hydro One customers in southern and central Ontario without electricity. The strongest winds were recorded in Niagara's Port Colborne at 126 km/h. Snow and violent winds shut down most of Sault Ste. Marie, including schools, community centres, malls, transit and restaurants. North of London, strong winds took out trees and power lines and caused numerous whiteouts and road closures. Waves in the open waters of Lake Erie's eastern basin were as high as 6 m. At Crystal Beach, wind-whipped waves drove water and chunks of shore ice some as much as a metre in diameter through living room windows.\nFollowing the passage of a sharp cold front on February 1, another \"old-fashioned\" winter storm walloped much of southern and eastern Ontario with 30 cm of snow, freezing rain, ice pellets, and wind gusts of 70 km/h in sub-zero temperatures on Groundhog Day. Ontario Provincial Police responded to hundreds of minor crashes on area highways the vast majority single-car spinouts into ditches or guardrails. The storm forced the cancellation of more than 150 flights at Toronto Pearson International Airport.\nApril Flooding Less Than Feared\nIn early April, a warm-air assault on a near-record snowpack led to a high flood risk along many watercourses in southern Ontario. Highway 26 near Collingwood was nearly impassable in places, and rising waters near a school in Wasaga Beach trapped students and staff inside. In the Chatham London area, a forecast of heavy rains brought the potential for the worst flooding in 30 years. Rains were less than forecast, however, and peak flows were less than expected. Still, many backyards and basements were flooded. By mid-April, Belleville was under a state of emergency as raging waters from the Moira River closed roads and threatened hundreds of homes in the area's worst flooding since 1981. Authorities handed out 36,000 sandbags to help homeowners protect their properties. Six families were evacuated and more than 145 others were told to be prepared to leave. With massive flooding on the Otonabee River in south Peterborough, some residents there faced evacuation for the fourth time in 2008.\nAt the end of April, rapidly rising waters on the ice-choked Albany River threatened to flood the northern Ontario communities of Kashechewan and Fort Albany once again. It was the fourth time since 2004 that Kashechewan had to be evacuated because of flooding. About 1.2 m of water lapped at homes, the airport and the local hospital. Rain, fog and a snowstorm delayed a mass airlift of beleaguered residents.\nThunder Bay Thunderstorm\nA cluster of thunderstorms churned through Thunder Bay and surrounding area on June 6, dumping between 70 and 80 mm of rain. Several communities were left in a state of chaos when portions of highways and secondary roads were washed away, rendering them inaccessible and forcing, a state of emergency to be declared. Nearly $2 million in damages occurred to roads and other infrastructure. The day's downpour threatened the single-day record for June, but was far off the all-time 24-hour drenching of 131.2 mm. June's total rainfall in Thunder Bay amounted to a record 194.4 mm; normal is 85.7 mm. Geraldton also had a new June record of 148 mm compared to a normal of 86 mm.\nWindsor Wet… Windsor Dry\nWindsor had its wettest June on record, with an estimated 172 mm of rain, beating the previous record of 162 mm in 1960 and far exceeding the total of 65 mm in June 2007. Along with the record amount of rain, Windsor–Essex had an unusually high number of rainy days--19 days of rain plus 4 days with trace amounts. Nine days featured thunderstorms, totalling 19 hours. The good news? There was only one smog day in June.\nIn sharp contrast August had only 9.4 mm of rain, the lowest monthly rainfall for Windsor on record. The city normally sees about 80 mm in August. Dryness characterized the latter half of the summer. From July 16 to August 31, a measly 37.6 mm of rain fell at the city's airport. Typically, Windsor should get about 121 mm. Even more shocking, the previous six weeks were among the wettest ever. About 225 mm of rain drenched Windsor from June 1 to 15. Such all-time extremes of the same element occurring in opposite directions in the same season are rarely seen.\nSoaker Storms in Kitchener-Waterloo\nA couple of drenching storms, the heaviest in years, created major July flooding in Kitchener–Waterloo, already saturated by 12 days of rain in two weeks. Excessive rains (54 mm on July 11th and 50 mm on July 22) turned creeks and streams into raging rivers in the Grand River basin. Flood waters forced the closure of several roads, trapping dozens of motorists. Lightning strikes knocked out power to about 6,000 customers in Kitchener. A number of parks, playing fields, and baseball diamonds were saturated and remained closed for several days. Combined with high winds, the storms tore down trees, hydro lines and traffic lights. Falling tree limbs also made a mess of a city-run cemetery, snapping headstones and knocking over grave markers. At its peak, the storm dumped almost 35 mm of rain in an hour including the heaviest 15-minute rainfall recorded at the University of Waterloo weather station in its 10-year history.\nPre-Halloween Winter Storm\nA couple of days before the end of October, thousands of residents in Ontario and Quebec woke up to between 10 and 20 cm of wet snow and strong winds. The storm was whipped up by a fierce nor'easter on the east coast of the United States that dragged arctic air across the Great Lakes. Driving conditions were treacherous in zero visibility; however, drivers seemed to exercise surprising care during winter's first blast. High winds and heavy snows falling on trees still thick with leaves wreaked havoc on hydro in eastern Ontario.\nLake-Effect Squalls Strand Motorists near London\nWaist-deep snow and treacherous driving conditions occurred at Strathroy on a stretch of highway between London and Sarnia on November 21. Dozens of motorists were stranded and were forced to hunker down for a night on the road. Police used snowmobiles and all-terrain vehicles to reach victims. Between 50 and 70 cm of snow blew off Lake Huron, burying cars and residents in a classic lake-effect mini-blizzard. Several roads blocked by stranded vehicles and drifted snow were impassable. The local squall generated 12 hours of whiteouts and drifts a metre high. Near London, about 25 cm of snow created chaos on the Highway 401 corridor, but that was nothing compared to the mayhem that occurred near Strathroy, west of London.\n- Date Modified:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Here are his picks for 2021:\n1. Heat dome in Western Canada: At the end of June, a sprawling high-pressure ridge with incredible strength, height, scope and persistence compressed air enough to cook the atmosphere and dissipate clouds. Lytton, B.C., set an all-time Canadian high of 49.6 C. Days later, the town was destroyed in a wildfire.\n2. Flooding in British Columbia: Nearly a month's worth of rain poured into the Fraser Valley over one November weekend, flooding farms and nearly paralyzing Canada's east-west traffic as it washed out major highways.\n3. Drought: Years of dry weather culminated in drought across much of Canada's agriculture belt. At one point, about 99 per cent of the Prairies grain region was classified as a drought scene.\n4. Wildfires: Heat plus drought equaled a wildfire season that burned out of control across Canada this year. B.C. saw forests burned equal to 1.5 times the size of Prince Edward Island. By July 10, fires were out-of-control in every province and territory except for Atlantic Canada and Nunavut.\n5. Heat waves: Canada rode out four heat waves in the summer, the fifth warmest season in the past 74 years. Montreal had its warmest August in 150 years, while nighttime temperatures in cities including Toronto remained over 20 C — and humid.\n6. Tornadoes: Tornadoes strong enough to shift homes and lift cars tore repeatedly through Ontario and Quebec in June and July, killing a man in a town north of Montreal.\n7. Arctic blast: February saw every part of Canada from Victoria to St. John's under freezing conditions — some of them extreme. Nighttime windchills on the Prairies sank the temperature to -55 C.\n8. Calgary hailstorm: A 20-minute hailstorm on July 2 saw ice pellets ranging in size from dimes to golf balls, part of a storm that caused local flooding and 200 calls to emergency services over two hours.\n9. Hurricane Larry: More than 60,000 Newfoundlanders lost power when Larry roared ashore on Sept. 11 with winds of up to 180 km/h and heavy rains. Coastal infrastructure was damaged and roads were closed for days.\n10. Prairie Clipper: Winds in January recorded at least 100 km/h in 76 different locations, 13 of which set records.

Heat advisories were extended to cover parts of Michigan, Indiana and northwest Ohio, and Kentucky, and in larger areas of states already under watch. Excessive heat warnings were in place for all of Iowa and large parts of Nebraska, the Dakotas and Illinois.\nEven President Barack Obama on Wednesday took to Twitter to warn Americans about the heat. \"Drink water, stay out of the sun, and check on your neighbors,\" the president said.\nIn a Chicago suburb on Tuesday, a 4-year-old girl was hospitalized after crawling in a car where she remained for about 15 to 20 minutes before being found, the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office said Wednesday. The temperature in Chicago was in the high 80s Tuesday.\nThe St. Louis County medical examiner’s office on Tuesday confirmed that the death of a 90-year-old woman last week was due to heat. Her air conditioning was not working, the medical examiner’s office said. The death of another elderly woman in Missouri in June was blamed on the heat, officials said.\nThe temperature in the South Dakota capital of Pierre reached 105 degrees Wednesday afternoon. Misty Black Bear, who works for the state, watched as her new chocolate ice cream cone immediately started melting in the sun. She said she's fortunate her office has air conditioning.\nState workers Katie Hruska and Kelsey Weber ate ice cream in the shade but planned to head right back inside when they were done.\n\"I eat ice cream in the winter, too, because it's delicious,\" Hruska said. \"But, did we pick ice cream today because it's hot? Yes.\"\nMidwest cities, including Omaha, Nebraska, and Des Moines, Iowa, will experience temperatures near 100 degrees with heat indices well above 100, according to weather.com. And there will be little reprieve once night falls, with temperatures only getting down as low as the 70s.\nJerry Main, who plants corn and soybeans on about 500 acres in southeast Iowa near Fairfield, said farmers plan outdoor work in early mornings to avoid the hottest part of the day.\n\"As far as cutting weeds by hand or manual labor outside I would say most farmers will spend a good share of the afternoon in the house,\" he said.\nThe Southeast won't be spared, either. Weekend highs are forecast to range from the mid-90s to close to 100 degrees; Nashville could see its first 100-degree reading in four years.\nAnd starting Friday, major cities along the eastern seaboard, including Washington, D.C., Philadelphia, and New York City could experience highs in the upper 90s to close to 100 degrees. The nation's capital hasn't had 100-degree weather since July 2012, weather.com said.\nIn all, about 200 million people will experience temperatures of 90 degrees or higher, and 130 million will experience heat indices of 100 degrees or high, meteorologists said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The ionospheric state can significantly impact technological systems, especially those which utilize radio frequency energy. By studying ionospheric disturbances, it is possible to gain a deeper understanding of not only the ionosphere itself, but also the natural and technological systems it is coupled to. This dissertation research utilizes high frequency (HF) radio remote sensing techniques to study three distinct types of ionospheric disturbances. First, ground magnetometers and a new mid latitude SuperDARN HF radar at Blackstone, Virginia are used to observe magnetospheric Pi2 ultra low frequency (ULF) pulsations in the vicinity of the plasmapause. Prior to these pulsations, two Earthward moving fast plasma flows were detected by spacecraft in the magnetotail. Signatures of inner magnetospheric compression observed by the Blackstone radar provide conclusive evidence that the plasma flow bursts directly generated the ground Pi2 signature via a compressional wave. This mechanism had previously been hypothesized, but never confirmed. Next, ten SuperDARN radars in the North American Sector are used to investigate the sources and characteristics of atmospheric gravity waves (AGW) associated medium scale traveling ionospheric disturbances (MSTIDs) at both midlatitudes and high latitudes. Consistent with prior studies, the climatological MSTID population in both latitudinal regions was found to peak in the fall and winter and have a dominant equatorward propagation direction. Prior studies suggested these MSTIDs were caused by mechanisms associated with auroral and space weather activity; however, it is shown here that the AE and Sym-H indices are poorly correlated with MSTID observations. A new, multi-week timescale of MSTID activity is reported. This leads to the finding that MSTID occurrence is highly correlated with an index representative of polar vortex activity, possibly controlled by a filtering mechanism that is a function of stratospheric neutral wind direction. Finally, a case study of a radio blackout of transionospheric HF communications caused by an X2.9 class solar flare is presented. This study demonstrates the potential of a novel technique employing signals of opportunity and automated receiving networks voluntarily created by an international community of amateur radio operators.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Last year, in [Waterloo Region] we had twice as many hot days as we normally would get. We had 16 of those instead of eight. And the year before we had about 15. We’ve already had four, which is a little bit more than you’d expect for this time of June,” said senior climatologist David Phillips.\nThe average temperature in May and the start of June was about 1 degree cooler than normal, Phillips said.\n“That does not define summer, we have to wait. People would say, ‘Well, you were wrong. Because you said it’s going to be warmer than normal.’ No, ‘I said come Labour Day when we crunch the numbers [it will be].’”\nAfter a dry May the rain the region got this week, totalling 35 millimetres, was very welcome, Phillips said.\n“Not only may it be the billion-dollar rain when you think about what we grow here in Ontario and depend on it, but any rain we get this week I think will be sort of money in the bank, kind of a safety valve for what may come for the rest of the summer,” he said.\nGoing forward it may be drier than normal, however precipitation is harder to predicate than temperature, Phillips said.\n“If it’s drier, then you need more rain than less rain when it’s warmer, because there’s more evaporation taking place. There is more stress from the vegetation in a warmer situation and so therefore you need that moisture to balance things out. So if the forecast is correct, that it is warmer and drier than normal, then my sense is that we may have some problems there. That’s why when we get a rain like we had [this week] it is in some ways it’s really the saviour,” he said.\nWhile there will be some periods of severe weather that is also hard to predict, Phillips explained.\n“My sense is that will we get those things and so we need to be prepared for them. So there’ll be near-misses, there’ll be hits and there might be some strong winds that bring down trees and put out power for a while,” he said.\nFor the agriculture sector there haven’t yet been any red flags, Phillips said.\n“My sense is that the growing season has started and the field work has been completed seeding is all in. What they would like now is an inch of rain a week and some warm temperatures and life would be great for the farmers and I wish we could order that. But then there are other people who wouldn’t like that. So my sense is that the conditions we’ve had so far have been fair for farmers.”\nPhillips described what is known as a “Bermuda High,” which is a high pressure system that sits over the Atlantic Ocean and brings extended periods of high temperatures, however that will not last very long.\n“That gives you a week or eight days of really hot temperatures and people are complaining about the heat and humidity….And we will have those moments, but I don’t think the whole summer won’t be made of that,” he said.\n“So in some ways, it may be a pleasant summer.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Although at this point nothing should surprise us much. Think cool thoughts, check in the vulnerable and be careful out there the next few days.\nWell, we got our wish. Many of us wanted to feel warm again, after a February-like April. Mother Nature heard your plaintive cries and turned up the volume a few notches. We should hit or exceed 90F today, Saturday, Sunday and Monday - the hottest Memorial Day since 2006. In fact steamy weather lingers into much of next week; no real relief until a Canadian cool front the first weekend of June. Until then, various degrees of hot and sweaty...\n26.1\" of snow last month, an early spell of 90s this month. Minnesota's weather is still manic - probably always will be. Time to dig out your summer wardrobe because sweaty weather is here to stay into much of next week with a streak of low 90s possible. In fact today may bring the first 90F of 2018, and severe storms into western Minnesota by afternoon and evening.\nLooking back many of us will consider this the good 'ol days - back when temperatures were comfortable - back when neighbors weren't whining about the dew point.

In the aftermaths of hurricanes Harvey, Irma, Maria and Nate, the watchword is resilience. Storms of this magnitude — Harvey brought more than 50 inches of rain to parts of Houston, while Irma saw wind speeds of 180 miles per hour — could become more common as Earth’s climate changes, which means real estate investors need to be prepared to handle such events.\nIn Houston, heavy rains caused severe flooding even after Harvey was downgraded to a tropical storm. Moody’s Investors Service has estimated the damage at $81 billion to $108 billion. Houston is the fourth-largest metro area in the country, with more than 6.7 million people, many of them newly moved to the fast-growing region.\nThe storm has given a sudden shock to the real estate market. Although Houston had seen soft property fundamentals the past few years, with high vacancy rates across property types, the loss of a significant portion of its real estate is likely to mean rising rents. According to Reis, apartment rents could rise 10 percent in the next few months, while office rents may increase between 5 percent and 10 percent.\nReis notes the damage from Hurricane Harvey disproportionately affected its residential housing stock, with less damage to its commercial real estate. CBRE Research writes, “Nearly all of Houston’s office buildings escaped the worst flooding.”\nParkway Inc., a Houston-focused REIT with 19 class A buildings totaling 8.7 million square feet, reported “minimal damage” resulting from Hurricane Harvey. A statement from the company read, “The properties maintained power throughout the storm and remained accessible to our customers as needed at all times. We expect that all damage will be insurable under our existing insurance policies, subject to a nominal deductible.”\nIn June, Parkway agreed to be acquired by the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board for $1.2 billion, subject to shareholder approval, and the deal continues to be set to close in the fourth quarter.\nIn early September, Hurricane Irma left a wide path of destruction through the Caribbean and struck the Florida Keys as a Category 4 hurricane (meaning the continental United States experienced back-to-back Category 4 hurricanes — the first time since modern recordkeeping began that two storms of that intensity struck the United States in a single season). More than 6 million people evacuated throughout the state of Florida, and more than 7 million overall. The storm is forecast to have caused approximately $100 billion in damage, according to AccuWeather.\nHurricane Irma was the most powerful Atlantic storm since Hurricane Dean in 2007, but it may not hold that crown for long, as the coming decade could deliver more storms of greater magnitude.\nLoretta Clodfelter (firstname.lastname@example.org) is editor of Institutional Real Estate Americas.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Fort Lauderdale, 36, tied a record low for the date. Fort Myers, 35, and Tallahassee, 20, set record lows and Tampa, at 35, also tied a record.\nThe record-tying cold in Fort Lauderdale came exactly one year after the city registered a record high of 86 degrees on March 2, 1985. The high on Sunday was 62.\nOther Sunday morning lows included 29 at Jacksonville, 31 at Lakeland, 32 at Vero Beach, 35 at Orlando and 36 at West Palm Beach -- all colder than balmy Great Falls, which reported a low of 37 degrees.\nMiami International Airport recorded a low of 39 degrees, two degrees above the record set on March 2, 1968.\nRelief was expected to come today, with temperatures climbing back into the low 70s and overnight lows in the low 50s, according to the National Weather Service in Coral Gables.\nThe warming trend will be too late for the thousands of spectators Sunday who huddled against the chill while watching car racing in Miami, pro golf in Coral Springs and polo in Palm Beach County.\nAlthough welcomed, the predicted warm weather also did little to comfort South Florida farmers on Sunday.\nBroward growers, who survived Sunday morning's near-freezing temperatures without much damage, braced for a second-straight night of crop-threatening cold. Extensive frost was predicted as overnight temperatures again were expected to dip into the mid and low 30s.\nFred Spear of Crystal Lake Farms, which grows fruits and vegetables near Coconut Creek, said his crews were lining up airboats and flooding fields to try to keep ground-level temperatures above the freezing mark.\n\"You gotta try something. You feel better if you try,\" said Spear. \"If we can keep the plants fairly dry, maybe we can stop the frost condition. It would take only a couple of degrees difference in the forecast to get by easy or to get really killed.\"\nOn Fort Lauderdale's beaches, crowds were thin and appeared to be dominated by collegians from cold northern climates. They frolicked in the surf, oblivious to the chill.\n\"It's no problem. I thought it was 75 degrees until somebody told me it was 58,\" said John Leighton, 22, from Augustana College in Rock Island, Ill.\nOther vacationing students, however, shunned the beach and searched out tourist attractions or sought shelter in bars along the Strip.\n\"It better get better. We only packed a couple sweatshirts,\" said a miffed Paula Paternostro, 20, from Catholic University in Washington, D.C.\nIn Plant City, which bills itself as the Strawberry Capital of the World, temperatures as low as 28 were reported and farmers kept their irrigation pumps running all night so the water would form an insulating layer of ice on the plants.\n\"Boy, it looked just like a white Christmas around here last night with all the frost -- it was just everywhere,\" said Jim Meeks of Parkesdale Farms near Plant City. The cold could delay ripening of the second crop of berries, he said.\nFlorida citrus tree blooms were largely unscathed by the cold and overnight lows into Monday were expected to be warmer, said Bobby McKown, executive vice president of the Florida Citrus Mutual in Lakeland.\nTallahassee's Sunday morning low of 20 broke the 1980 record by one degree, and Fort Myers had a record low of 35, breaking an 18-year-old record by one degree.\nThe apparent low in South Florida was at Clewiston in Hendry County with a low of 29 degrees Sunday at 7 a.m., said National Weather Service specialist Bill Kent in West Palm Beach.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Six\nof the named storms -- including the season's monsters, Georges and Mitch\n-- caused billions in damage.\n- And more of the same is possible next\nyear, said pioneering hurricane forecaster William Gray at Colorado State\nUniversity in Boulder, Colo.\n- \"We are going to see the return\nof some of these type of storms,\" Gray said. \"People have to\nface up to it. The insurance industry has a major problem.\"\n- Gray , who underestimated this season's\nactivity, said the last four years have been the most active ever for hurricanes\nin the Atlantic basin. He expects even more hurricanes in 1999.\n- With the gradual fading of the latest\ncycle of the El Nino phenomenon, which tends to suppress Atlantic hurricanes,\n1998 saw nine hurricanes and five tropical storms. In September, there\nwere four hurricanes at once -- Georges, Ivan, Jeanne, and Karl -- for\nthe first time since 1893.\n- The Pacific hurricane season, which also\nends today, was about average with 13 named storms and nine hurricanes.\nHoward was the strongest Pacific hurricane with 240 kilometre an hour sustained\nwinds. Only Isis reached land, and then only after weakening to tropical\n- The Atlantic season's last gasp was tropical\nstorm Nicole, which formed last week and stayed out at sea.\n- But it was really Mitch that provided\nthe season's climax.\n- After forming south of Jamaica on Oct.\n22, Mitch erupted into a Category 5 storm with sustained wind blowing at\n290 km/h and gusts estimated at more than 320 km/h, the fourth-strongest\nCaribbean hurricane this century.\n- Then it stalled over Honduras and Nicaragua\nwith torrents of rain. Its death toll from floods, storm surge and mudslides\nwill probably never be known but is estimated at more than 10,000.\n- Mitch's death toll would match Fifi,\nwhich hit Honduras in 1974, as the third-deadliest Atlantic hurricane.\n- The deadliest single storm on record\nwas in 1780, killing at least 20,000 people on Martinique. A 1900 storm\nkilled 8,000 to 12,000 in Galveston, Texas.\n- Mitch proved difficult for forecasters,\neven though they were equipped this season with a new satellite, a new\nhurricane-hunter airplane and other high-tech tools.\n- As the storm headed over Central America,\nthey had to rely mostly on ground-level data to measure the storm's intensity\nbecause they couldn't use their airplane as much as they wished.\n- \"It was a very challenging forecast\nfor us,\" said Miles Lawrence, a specialist with the U.S. National\nHurricane Centre. \"It pointed out some of our limitations. We have\na good justification for beefing up observations in Central America.\"\n- Mitch even overshadowed Georges, which\nformed Sept. 15 and grew into a Category 4 storm with 240 km/h winds. Georges\nrampaged across islands, the Florida Keys and the Mississippi Delta, causing\nabout $1 billion US in damage and at least 350 deaths in Haiti and the\n- Bonnie grazed North Carolina and Virginia\nin late August and caused up to $2 billion US in damage. Tropical Storm\nCharley struck Texas on Aug. 22, dumping 45 centimetres of rain on one\nsmall town and killing at least 19 people in Texas and Mexico.\n- Hurricane Earl hit the Florida Panhandle\non Labour Day; a week later, Frances caused floods along the Gulf Coast\nfrom Texas to Louisiana.\n- The vulnerable Florida Keys got hit twice.\nGeorges damaged an estimated 700 homes on its way to Mississippi. And after\nMitch weakened to a tropical storm, it spawned tornadoes that turned a\nKey Largo trailer park inside out.\n- Many Keys residents had never been through\na hurricane before and decided to tough it out, a decision many regretted.\n- \"We weren't prepared for it all,\"\nsaid Jerry Wright, whose got a tree through his bedroom window during Mitch.\n\"We thought we were going to meet our makers.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

As summer comes to an end, there are many celestial events you do not want to miss this month, including a crescent moon, a “disappearing” Mars, and the Fall equinox.\nOver the next 30 days, you’ll get to see gorgeous moon views, a sky without the Red Planet, and changing daylight hours, according to NASA. All you need is a telescope and a comfortable chair to enjoy September’s sky delights.\nNASA says we’re in a several-month period when the new moon occurs around the end of each month, meaning we get to witness a waning crescent moon at dusk for the first few days of September and a waxing crescent moon in the predawn sky near the end of September.\nThis month, look low in the west roughly 30 minutes after sunset to see the crescent moon from September 1 to September 4, with the moon looking slightly higher in the sky each night. By Sept. 5, the first half-full (first-quarter) moon will show up in the same spot and ascend toward Jupiter.\nFrom September 23 to September 27, you can look east half an hour before dawn for a slimmer crescent moon, which will appear lower in the sky each day.\nWhere Did Mars Go?\nMars was a regular neighbor in the night sky until July, when it drifted further into the sun’s glare and “disappeared” from our sky. In September, Mars is behind the sun and this bizarre event is known as solar conjunction.\nAccording to NASA, solar conjunction occurs roughly every two years. During this period, mission controllers on our planet stop sending commands to spacecraft, so they can avoid potential radio interference from the sun. A few weeks later, the Red Planet will move farther apart from the sun and normal spacecraft communications will resume at this time.\nIf you would like to catch a glimpse of Mars again, it will come back to the night sky in early November.\nThe September equinox will take place on Sept. 23, with day and night being equal length during this celestial event. Fall will start in the Northern Hemisphere, while summer will start in the Southern Hemisphere.\nNASA says the reduction in the number of sunlight hours each day leads to the cold weather that occurs in fall and winter.\nIt may be the end of pool parties and beach days, but longer nights mean there will be more opportunities to watch the sky during the cooler months!\nMore on Geek.com:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The strength of such a stream is normally a direct cause to a direct result of the intensity of temperature differences. Winds were are classified as jet streams at a speed above 57 miles per hour, but some even reach 300 miles per hour.\nIn the area between the Equator and North Pole, there were are two main patterns of stream winds classified. The subtropical stream is found in the south of the United States. In Idaho and Montana the polar jet stream occurs. According to the lecturer, when ther is a cold winter in the US, this stream sometimes expands even to as far asTexas.\nThe power of some jet streams have an enormous effect on traveling by plane. As the professor puts it, flying against the direction of a jet stream can cause an airplane to need more time to arrive at its goal. The delay reaches even a few hours sometimes.sometimes reaches several hours/can be several hours. Moreover, the wind blowing at the front of the plane increases the need of fuel and can lead to turbulances.\"\n- For Teachers","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The same areas face the possibility of more rain over the long Memorial Day weekend.\n\"It's not going to take very much rain to get us in those flood stages again,\" said John Brieden, a judge in Washington County, Texas, where more than 16.5 inches of rain fell in places Thursday.\nThe forecasts through the holiday weekend called for scattered or isolated thunderstorms in Central and southeast Texas. But officials say they will be monitoring local rivers and waterways, which could rise out of their banks in the coming days due to the heavy rains.\nOther parts of the U.S. got drenched Friday as well as Saturday, when a tropical depression in the Atlantic Ocean brought rain and wind to the coast of South Carolina.\nIn central Kansas, the Wichita Fire Department said Saturday that it's searching for an 11-year-old boy went missing after he was swept away by a swollen creek Friday night. The department said on its Facebook page that two cadaver police dogs are taking part in the search.\nIn the southeast Texas county of Washington, located between Austin and Houston, two people have died and two are missing due to swollen rivers that have overrun communities, washing away mobile homes and causing water to flow into other structures. More than 50 water rescues had taken place since the rains began Thursday morning.\nBrieden said Saturday that one person was found dead in a mobile home that was swamped by floodwaters and a second person was found in a vehicle that had gone off a road and into a submerged ditch.\nBrieden also said two motorists are missing in separate parts of the rural county: One vehicle was located without its driver, and the other vehicle can't be found. Brieden says the fear is that it may be submerged and won't be located until floodwaters recede.\nThe Washington County seat, Brenham, received 16.62 inches of rain Thursday, breaking the city's daily rainfall record, said National Weather Service meteorologist Wendy Long.\nNear Austin in Travis County, which saw up to 9 inches of rain this week, officials are searching for two missing people whose vehicle was swept off a flooded roadway, according to emergency services spokeswoman Lisa Block.\nThe National Weather Service said an EF1 tornado hit Thursday in Bryan, about 100 miles northwest of Houston. Bryan officials said 153 homes were damaged, including 53 with major damage.\nIn Wisconsin, another EF1 tornado damaged about 25 homes and knocked out power to the village of Brandon on Friday, but no one was injured.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In recent years science has accepted ball lightning as a real natural phenomena and even rocks falling from the sky (and possibly from Mars too) as fact. More recently, certain red lights observed in the sky, often by farmers and pilots, are now also accepted as real and known as \"red sprites\". Below is an article which shows just how frequent these red sprites are. In an earlier post to UFO UpDates in March 1997, I suggested that red sprites, the related \"blue jets\", the flying saucer shaped \"ELVES\" and other similar natural phenomena may even account for some of the unusual UFO sightings made from the Space Shuttle while flying over the Earth's nightside. Nick Balaskas --- March 30, 1999 AGU RELEASE NO. 99-10 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AGU Contact: Harvey Leifert (202) 939-3212 email@example.com Joint release with the University of Massachusetts UMass Contact: Elizabeth Luciano - (413) 545-2989 - firstname.lastname@example.org Radio signals help scientists trace lightning-associated \"sprites\" WASHINGTON, D.C. -- For the first time, engineers and scientists have a reliable estimate of the number of \"sprites\" spawned by a single thunderstorm. Sprites, luminous red glows that are the high-altitude companions of some lightning strikes, are the focus of a new study by Steven Reising of the University of Massachusetts and Umran Inan and Timothy Bell of Stanford University in California. The team's findings appear in the April 1 issue of Geophysical Research Letters (GRL), published by the American Geophysical Union. The research was funded by NASA, the U.S. Air Force, and the National Science Foundation. Sprites accompany roughly one in every 200 lightning strikes. Studied primarily since 1994, they tower up to 55 miles above thunderclouds, occurring simultaneously with lightning strikes. Sprites can be seen with the naked eye, sometimes from as far away as 400 miles. They are electrical phenomena that appear above thunderclouds, reaching the lower ionosphere. These striated, glowing ribbons appear at several-minute intervals above all the major landmasses of the Earth, according to Reising. \"I really enjoy this field because it's so newly discovered,\" said Reising.\"Sprites only began to be studied in detail about five years ago. It's remarkable that a phenomenon that's existed during all of human history essentially went unnoticed for such a long time.\" He added that for many decades, airline pilots reported seeing sprites, but were met with skepticism. \"The pilots were vindicated,\" he said. Reising, an engineering professor who works with the University of Massachusetts Microwave Remote Sensing Laboratory, is embarking on an extension of the research using new portable radars to study the interior structure of clouds. In the GRL paper, the researchers focus on a thunderstorm that occurred on August 1, 1996, in western Kansas, above which 98 sprites were observed in a 90-minute period. The team recorded the sprites on videotape, along with the radio signals emitted by each lightning strike. For each visible sprite, they examined the corresponding radio wave measurements, using custom-designed antennas and receivers. Researchers found that the lightning strikes that produce sprites also tend to carry a distinctive radio signature. The radio signals the team \"read\" were emitted by the lightning itself, rather than by its companion sprite. The information gleaned in the study may have a bearing on climate monitoring and atmospheric chemistry, Reising said. \"This marks the first time that independent measurements not requiring video have been used to estimate the number of sprites produced by a single thunderstorm,\" said Reising. A typical lightning strike occurs in one-tenth of a millisecond, but those associated with sprites emit a much longer-lived electrical current. \"These electrical currents last for at least several milliseconds. In a relative sense, that's quite a long period of time, and radio measurements can easily tell the difference. We can't rely on video alone to count all the sprites, because many times, sprites are visually blocked by the clouds,\" he said. Also, it would be nearly impossible, and extremely costly, to video-monitor every thunderstorm in the hemisphere, or around the world. Sprites do not interfere with spacecraft launches, aircraft, or telecommunications satellites, Reising said. However, there is some concern in the scientific community regarding chemical changes that sprites could potentially produce in the atmosphere. But in order to address that issue, scientists first need a reliable estimate of how many sprites actually occur. Another application of the same lightning monitoring technique would be the monitoring of rainfall in remote areas. \"Using four relatively low-cost receivers, you can count the number of lightning strikes and sprites in the Western hemisphere, 24 hours a day, and at very low cost. A storm in Brazil could be monitored by stations in California and Antarctica,\" said Reising. \"You can do this from 12,000 kilometers away--a quarter of the way around the world.\"\n[ Next Message | Previous Message | This Day's Messages ]\nThis Month's Index |\nUFO UpDates - Toronto - Operated by Errol Bruce-Knapp","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The aurora is actually collisions between electrically charged particles from the sun that enter the earth's atmosphere. The lights are seen above the magnetic poles of the northern and southern hemispheres. They are known as 'Aurora borealis' (meaning -'dawn of the north') in the north after the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for the north wind, Boreas, by Galileo in 1619 and 'Aurora australis' (meaning - 'dawn of the south') in the south has features that are almost identical to the aurora borealis and changes simultaneously with changes in the northern auroral zone. It is visible from high southern latitudes in Antarctica, Chile, Argentina, New Zealand, and Australia.\nBut why auroras are most likely to be found at the poles of the planet?\nThe North and a South Pole of the earth are Just like a bar magnet. The magnetism at the poles reaches all of the way down into our planet’s core and the particles follow an invisible magnetic line down the poles. Since the magnetic and geographic poles aren't the same, sometimes the auroras are visible farther south than one might expect, while in other places it's farther north. The Earth’s atmosphere is made of two main gases called oxygen and nitrogen. Both of these gases are made of the molecules and when they collide with the particles thrown out by the Sun, they emit the colors that turn the darkest of skies into a beautiful light show.\nThe lights appear in many forms from patches of light to streamers, arcs, shooting rays that light up the sky with an eerie glow. Aurora appears in many colors like pale green and pink and also sometimes shades of red, yellow, green, blue, and violet. Variations in color are due to the type of gas particles that are colliding. The lights of the Aurora generally extend from 80 kilometers to as high as 640 kilometers above the earth's surface.\nWhat causes the Aurora?\nA full understanding of the physical processes which lead to different types of auroras is still incomplete, but the basic cause involves the interaction of the solar wind (The solar wind is a stream of charged particles released from the upper atmosphere of the Sun) with the Earth’s magnetosphere. In other words, the temperature above the surface of the sun is millions of degrees Celsius. At this temperature, collisions between gas molecules are frequent and explosive. Free electrons and protons are thrown from the sun's atmosphere by the rotation of the sun and escape through holes in the magnetic field. Blown towards the earth by the solar wind, the charged particles are largely deflected by the earth's magnetic field. However, the earth's magnetic field is weaker at either pole and therefore some particles enter the earth's atmosphere and collide with gas particles. These collisions emit light that we perceive as the aurora.\nLegends of the Lights\nMany cultural groups have legends about the aurora. In medieval Europe, the auroras were commonly believed to be a sign from God.The Maori of New Zealand shared a belief with many northern people of Europe and North America that the lights were reflections from torches or campfires. The Menominee Indians of Wisconsin believed that the lights indicated the location of giants who were the spirits of great hunters and fishermen. The Inuit of Alaska believed that the lights were the spirits of the animals they hunted: the seals, salmon, deer and beluga whales. Other aboriginal peoples believed that the lights were the spirits of their people.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Damaging winds, hazardous storm surge and flooding rains were expected in the tropical island chain, which is home to a little more than 100,000 people. It comes after Harold became the first storm this year to peak at the equivalent of a Category 5 hurricane Monday.\nWhile referred to as a cyclone in the western Pacific Ocean, the storm is no different from a hurricane.\nTonga marks the third island country to be hit by Harold in barely four days’ time, the relentless cyclone maintaining high-end Category 3 strength as its reign of terror continues. It comes amid a global pandemic, as coronavirus concerns have complicated sheltering decisions and may hamper relief efforts.\nWinds gusted to 83 mph at the Fuaʻamotu International Airport on Tonga’s main island, Tongatapu, shortly after daybreak Thursday local time (Wednesday afternoon Eastern time).\nThe government-operated Tonga Meteorological Service had issued a hurricane warning for Tongatapu, the main island in the Kingdom of Tonga, and Eua, a smaller island to the southeast, stating that winds would “rapidly increase to storm force winds [of 60 to 70 mph] with momentary gusts of hurricane force winds up to [85 to 110 mph].”\nFortunately, the center of Harold appeared to pass about 100 miles south of Tongatapu and Eua islands, most likely sparing them the most severe wind and surge.\nOther places, however, haven’t been so fortunate. Portions of Vanuatu, an archipelago nation some 1,200 miles northeast of Brisbane, Australia, sustained a direct hit from the then-Category 5-equivalent monster.\nHarold first impacted Vanuatu on Monday (Sunday Eastern time), trekking across the islands of Espiritu Santo and Malo at high-end Category 4 intensity. According to ReliefWeb, 70 percent of the structures were damaged in Luganville, Vanuatu’s second-largest city on Espiritu Santo.\nAfter an abrupt recovery following its interaction with land, the behemoth storm strengthened even further, becoming a hellacious Category 5 equivalent enveloped in prolific lightning. The devastating blow to Pentecost Island bore shades of Cyclone Pam’s 175 mph passage in 2015.\nFrom there, Harold raked Fiji’s main island, Viti Levu, atop of which sits the capital of Suva. The storm’s screaming eyewall skirted just south of the coast, the island narrowly avoiding an encounter with winds gusting more than 130 mph.\nHowever, the eye redeveloped and swallowed Kadavu island at Category 4 strength shortly afterward.\nFiji’s prime minister, Frank Bainimarama, indicated that the nation’s government had prepared its cyclone response with the coronavirus pandemic in mind, tweeting that “evacuation centers [were] sanitized and monitored to ensure they [did] not surpass capacity.”\nHe added that “close contacts under #COVID19 quarantine would not mix with others,” and urged all residents under evacuation orders to do so. Viti Levu’s roads were closed during the height of the storm.\nFiji has confirmed at least 15 cases of covid-19, and has imposed curfews and business restrictions, as well as stay-at-home orders.\nThe Fijian government tweeted that several roads remained underwater or impassible due to debris Wednesday.\nMany of our roads are currently flooded, so avoid physical harm from debris or infection from these waters and stay away from floodwaters.— Fijian Government (@FijianGovt) April 8, 2020\nFlood-affected roads include those in:\nLautoka ✔️#FijianGovernment #TeamFiji #Fiji #TCHarold pic.twitter.com/MpCnb1oymC\nWinds in Tonga will subside and conditions improve as Harold pulls away from the islands Thursday afternoon, allowing officials an opportunity to assess any damage. Thereafter, Harold’s spate of island impacts looks to come to an end, the system gradually weakening as it blows through the South Pacific in the coming days.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Climate Change Service of the European Space Agency. This is the highest 12-month global temperature average on record, Copernicus reported.\nThe world has broken heat records every month since last June.\nJanuary 2024 broke the old record of 2020 as the warmest first month of the year by 0.22 degrees Fahrenheit (0.12 degrees Celsius) and was 3 degrees Fahrenheit (1.66 degrees Celsius) warmer than the late 19th century , the basis of temperatures before the burning of fossil fuels. . Although January was record warm, the above-normal level was lower than the previous six months, according to Copernicus data.\nClimate scientists blame a combination of man-made warming from burning fossil fuels and a natural but temporary warming from El Nino in parts of the Pacific, saying greenhouse gases play a much bigger role than nature. . This is the time of year when El Niño warming typically peaks, said Andrew Dessler, a climate scientist at Texas A&M University.\n“This is both disturbing and not disturbing. After all, if you stick your finger in a socket and are surprised, it’s bad news, sure, but what did you expect? Dessler said.\nJust because the planet exceeded the 1.5 degree warming threshold for 12 months, that’s not what scientists mean by reaching the 1.5 degree warming limit, said Cornell University climatologist Natalie Mahowald. co-author of a United Nations scientific report on damage greater than 1.5 degrees. The 1.5 degree limit, adopted by the 2015 Paris climate agreement, refers more to 30-year averages.\n“These are much more than numbers, ranges and records: they translate into real impacts on our farms, families and communities due to unprecedented heat, changes in growing seasons and rising sea levels,” said the climatologist at the North Carolina State, Kathie Dello.\nInternational Falls, a Minnesota city on the Canadian border that prides itself on calling itself the “nation’s freeze,” recorded its first January high of 50 degrees on Jan. 31, when the temperature reached 53 Fahrenheit (11.7 Celsius). Minneapolis has already set a record for the number of winter days with temperatures in the 50s.\nAbout 70% of Minnesota currently has bare ground, and so far most of the state is receiving less than 25% of normal snowfall.\nAuthorities rescued dozens of ice fishermen from normally solid lakes in northern Minnesota after ice floes broke off and swept them away. The annual Art Shanty Projects festival on Lake Harriet in Minneapolis in January had to be cut short due to open water and unsafe ice.\nMontgomery National Golf Club, about 45 miles (72 kilometers) south of Minneapolis, should be covered under a thick layer of snow this time of year. Instead, it is doing a booming business.\n“In January we had about a thousand golfers. If we had just one golfer, it would have been a record,” said owner Greg McKush. “After today, we will have had about a thousand golfers in February, which is unheard of.”\nMcKush said he reopened two Saturdays ago and estimates he could stay open all winter if temperatures continue to reach at least 40 degrees.\nIt looks like the streets are trying to green up, he said, and much of the frost has come off the ground. Most golfers tell you that conditions are “better than expected.”\nIn Wisconsin, the nation’s fourth-largest maple syrup producer, mild winter weather prompted many farms in the state’s northern and central regions to begin cutting down their trees in mid-January, up to two months earlier than normal. depending on the area, said Theresa Baroun, executive director of the Wisconsin Maple Syrup Producers Association.\n“There is a wide range of the state that they are already exploiting and cooking syrup. It’s very unusual. “This is one of the most abnormal weather patterns we have seen for the start of the maple season,” he said Wednesday. “For maples to work, it needs to be very cold at night and colder than freezing during the day. And this weather has been perfect for maple trees to run.”\nBaroun, whose family has about 1,200 maples at their Maple Sweet Dairy in De Pere, Wis., just south of Green Bay, said the farm started cooking sap this week and that’s the earliest his family can remember since production began in 1964.\nThe February sturgeon season on Michigan’s Black Lake was canceled for the first time due to a lack of ice for safe fishing.\nAt Isle Royal National Park, an island in Lake Superior between Michigan, Minnesota and Canada, scientists couldn’t conduct their annual count of wolves and moose because the ice was so weak they couldn’t land ski planes to get there.\nOne of the strangest consequences has been the early appearance of ticks.

Raveena Aulakh, environment reporter for the Toronto Star, wrote the article entitled “Likely wettest moment in Toronto’s history” (Toronto Star, July 9, 2013, GT1) in which Environment Canada’s senior climatologist David Phillips was quoted as saying “This is likely the wettest moment in Toronto’s history.” The article continued that more than ninety millimetres of rain was recorded at Pearson International Airport in a two-hour period from 4:30 p.m. onward. Up to this point, the wettest day in Toronto’s history had been October 15, 1954 when Hurricane Hazel brought 121.4 millimetres of rainfall that day. The previous wettest day in July was July 28, 1980 with 118.5 millimetres of rain falling over that day, well over the usual 75 millimetres of rain expected for a summer July day in Toronto.\nToronto Star reporter Tess Kalinowski, in her July 9, 2013 article “Wild storm wreaks havoc in GTA: Emergency services, utility companies swamped with calls as residents dealt with backed up drains, overflowing waterways” (page GT1), outlined the impact that fell upon Torontonians the day before: “A deluge of more than 100mm of rain knocked out power and wreaked chaos on the evening commute Monday, forcing some motorists to abandon their cars as flooding washed out roads and suspended service on long stretches of subway and GO lines… The Toronto Police Marine Unit was pressed into service about 9 p.m. to rescue passengers stranded for hours on a 5:30 p.m. Richmond Hill-bound GO train that became stuck on the flooded tracks near the Don River…”\nTo view the articles in full, please access the Toronto Star Historical Newspaper Archive database with a valid Toronto Public Library card.\nGlobe and Mail reporters Vidya Kauri and Kaleigh Rogers, writing the article entitled “One-two punch overloads infrastructure: Flash flooding widespread as Toronto area hit with more rain in one day than it normally gets” (Globe and Mail, July 9, 2013, A1), also provided context as to what happened: “Two separate thunderstorms, one right on the heels of the other, delivered more rainfall in Toronto than the city sees on average during the entire month of July. The storms caused major transit delays, road closures, power outages, flight cancellations and flooding throughout the city... Environment Canada senior climatologist David Phillips said this is the wettest July in more than 30 years… Sixty of the previous 100 days have seen rainfall in the area – saturating the ground and making it impossible to withstand more water…”\nTo view this article in full, please access the Globe and Mail Historical Newspaper Archive database with a valid Toronto Public Library card.\nRoughly one month after the July 2013 floods, the Insurance Bureau of Canada estimated that insured property damage from the July 8, 2013 weather event was already greater than $850 million. The City of Toronto’s response to the flooding was to initiate over a ten-year period the expenditure of $3.1 billion beginning in 2014 to improve storm water and wastewater collection systems and their ability to handle extreme weather occurrences.\nThis book covers both the flooding affecting the Greater Toronto Area in July 2013 and the flooding affecting southern Alberta in June 2013, including the flooding that occurred in the City of Calgary. (For comparative purposes on the southern Alberta flooding, interested readers might also wish to try the following title: The Flood of 2013: A Summer of Angry Rivers in Southern Alberta, by the Calgary Herald; foreword by Naheed Nenshi, c2013.)\nPostscript: The debate about climate change and its effects continues as extreme weather events occur with some degree of intensity, even in 2013 alone: The floods in southern Alberta in June 2013, the flooding in the Greater Toronto Area in July 2013, and the ice storm affecting Toronto and other communities in December 2013. Undoubtedly, one will look ahead to future books dealing with the flooding that has plagued the Toronto Islands in 2017, owing to overabundant rainfall and high water levels on Lake Ontario.\nPlease see also the following blog posts on weather-related local history topics:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Smaller than a piece of sand, and astronomers call them interplanetary dust. If they’re larger than a boulder, astronomers call them asteroids.\nA meteoroid becomes a meteor when it strikes the atmosphere and leaves a bright tail behind it. The bright line that we see in the sky is caused by the ram pressure of the meteoroid. It’s not actually caused by friction, as most people think.\nWhen a meteoroid is larger, the streak in the sky is called a fireball or bolide. These can be bright, and leave a streak in the sky that can last for more than a minute. Some are so large they even make crackling noises as they pass through the atmosphere.\nIf any portion of the meteoroid actually survives its passage through the atmosphere, astronomers call them meteorites.\nSome of the brightest and most popular meteor showers are the Leonids, the Geminids, and the Perseids. With some of these showers, you can see more than one meteor (or shooting star) each minute.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The first one is ‘Amphan’ and the second one is ‘Nisarga’. In this article let us learn about the cause, destruction and the safety measures of a cyclone.\nWhen water vapour in the clouds cools down it releases heat. This heat warms the air around the clouds. The warm air rises up and creates a low pressure zone. This low pressure zone is quickly filled in by cooler air from the surrounding. This creates a system in which the centre has very low pressure and is surrounded by wind moving around it. The wind from the surroundings moves in a circular fashion towards the centre and gives rise to cyclone.\nThe centre of the cyclone is called ‘eye’. A cyclone may be 10 to 15 km high. It is a rotating mass of air. The diameter of eye may be vary from 10 to 30 km. Eye of a cyclone is a calm area, but around the eye air may move with high speed such as 150 to 250 km/h.\nDestruction caused by Cyclone: A strong cyclone can be very destructive.\nSince cyclone is accompanied with high speed wind, it can damage houses, telephone poles, electric poles and uproot trees.\nStrong wind of the cyclone may push the sea water towards the sea shore in the form of high wave. These high waves may damage houses and push water to low land which may be accompanied with loss of life and properties.\nBeing the area of very low pressure, eye of cyclone lifts water in the centre. This may cause the rise of water up to 3 to 15 metre high. This appears like a water wall. This water wall when pushed towards seashore can inundate a large area, which can cause the loss of life and property.\nIn India, the eastern coastal region is more vulnerable to cyclones, in terms of intensity and frequency of cyclones, compared to the western coast.\nCyclone is known by different names in different countries. Cyclone is known as Hurricane in the American continent. It is known as Typhoon in Philippines and Japan.\nTornado: Tornadoes are the fast moving dark cloud in the shape of a funnel. The speed of violent tornadoes may be up to 300km. Tornadoes are as destructive as cyclone. Tornadoes may form within cyclones.\nAnemometer: An instrument which measures the speed of wind.\n- Safety services towards cyclone and other disaster provided by Government and other agencies.\n- Cyclone forecast and warning services:\nWith the advances in technology, cyclone can be forecasted in about 24 to 48 hours in advance. This becomes possible because of satellites and computers. The technology can forecast a cyclone warning every half an hour.\n- Rapid communication to the Government and concerned people:\nCommunication about the cyclone is given quickly to the Government and the people so that proper safety measures and rescue operations can be carried out. Cyclone shelters in the cyclone prone area are constructed and shifting the people quickly to a safer place are the action steps carried out.\n- Action on the part of people:\nPay attention towards warning broadcasts from time to time. In case of a cyclone warning, stock necessary food items and medicines. If possible, move to a safer place. Fishermen should not venture into the sea during a cyclone warning. Cooperate with others in the community. Help the rescue team.\nAbout Author: Sajid Mostaque has total work experience of 3 years in corporate world. He is a Program Implementation Associate.

A major interface revamp to Dark Sky put even more weather data right at your fingertips, including a precipitation map and handy hourly forecasts.\nThe TWC app provides you with a wealth of meteorological data such as temperature, wind and visibility on an hourly or daily basis, with an extended 10-day forecast available. The Weather Channel also includes social sharing features for users to upload images, tweets, videos and photos.\nThe app features customizable alerts and provides a map with shelter information in the event of an emergency. (Image credit: Avalon Apps) Weather can change in an instant, so it's handy to be alerted when something severe is headed your way.\nA noteworthy feature is the app's ability to send notifications whenever a weather alert is issued, so that you're never caught unaware by snow storms, flood warnings or other dangerous conditions. The iOS version of NOAA Radar Pro includes Apple Watch compatibility, so those alerts are delivered to your wrist.\nAndroid users can download the free NOAA Weather Radar & Alerts, with a $1.99 in- app purchase removing ads. The free download not only offers Doppler radar for North America, but can provide hurricane forecasts, Spark lightning alerts, air quality info and pollen count data on top of the usual array of weather information.\nSince it pulls data from weather services, satellites and tracking stations, Weathering can provide hyper local real-time conditions with current, hourly and 10-day forecasts. The app promises detailed info on pollutants and the air quality index for 10,000-plus locations in more than 100 countries.\nVisual also works in 7-day forecasts so that you can plan ahead on your outdoor activities to make sure you're going out in healthy air. The app pulls data from Dark Sky to provide current, hourly, and 7-day forecasts leavened with sarcastic humor to cushion even the gloomiest outlook.\nInfographics put useful information in quick reach, with more detailed meteorological data available as you tap and swipe. You can even configure Carrot's sense of humor to be friendly, snarky, or murderous, with the ability to set how political the AI's jokes can get.\niOS's users who opt for the Tier 3 subscription (the priciest option, with a $24.99 annual cost) can receive notifications for rain, snow, lightning strikes and storms. Pay up for a premium subscription to this iOS-only app, and you'll get extended 10-day forecasts that pull data from Dark Sky, Wet and AccuWeather for a comprehensive look ahead at ever-changing weather conditions.\nThe app displays images of your location with matching time of day and weather conditions, with the option to view detailed five-day forecasts, as well as interactive radar, heat and satellite maps. Updates have brought the Android app in line with the iOS design for a unified experience across both platforms.\n(Image credit: Idea Studio)Knowing the weather before you start out on a road trip can be just as crucial as having the right directions. Pro users get more sophisticated features like alternate routes suggestions, road visibility and expanded data about conditions such as precipitation and wind speed.\nIf you've got any extended trips in your future, Weather on the Way can be a helpful companion to make sure that you arrive safely at your destination. (Image credit: JRushtonApps)If your interest in the best weather apps extends to the lunar calendar, then My Moon Phase is a must-download.\nThe app also includes alerts for incoming severe weather events such as snow, thunderstorms, high winds or tornadoes. (Image credit: Ensure Digital Weather)If geeking out over maps, graphs, and predictions is your thing, check out Flow.\nRadarscope provides users with Neural Level 3 data from radar stations across the United States, Guam and Puerto Rico, with options for fine-tuning the view with settings for displaying reflectivity, velocity and more. In addition, there are detailed severe weather alerts for tornadoes, flash floods and thunderstorms.\nCities: Toronto, Montréal, Calgary, Ottawa, Edmonton, Mississauga, Winnipeg, Vancouver and all the others Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.\nSep 25, 2021 Excellent, love it. Is there an app that tells you the weather approx for the year, month by month? The developer, ex ovoid SARL, indicated that the app's privacy practices may include handling of data as described below.\nThe following data may be used to track you across apps and websites owned by other companies: Privacy practices may vary, for example, based on the features you use or your age.\nDepending on which weather app you choose to download, you may also get additional information like monthly forecasts, humidity levels and precipitation totals. However, any third-party weather app -- as in, those that don't come built-in to your phone -- poses a risk, since they operate using location data, and sometimes ask for permissions they don't actually need.\nBone of the top weather apps for both iOS and Android, The Weather Channel app offers local hourly, daily and weekly forecasts, as well as a “Feels like” feature to let you know what to prepare for when leaving the house. Owned by IBM, the app also offers real-time rain alerts with radar, and the ability to track seasonal allergies, flu risk and COVID-19 cases.\nIf you tap “more,” you'll find information on humidity, dew point, visibility, UV index and flu outbreaks. The app is free, but you can upgrade to a premium ad-free version for $20 per year or $4 per month, which also includes detailed visual forecasts up to 15 days out.\nKeep scrolling and you'll see the different allergy levels (like tree, grass and ragweed pollen) broken down for the day. At the top, you'll have the option to check hourly and daily temperatures, along with a radar map.\nIt gives you access to Neural Level 3 and Super-Resolution radar data, along with tornado, severe thunderstorm, flash flood and special marine warnings. A Pro Tier 2 subscription ($15 per month or $100 per year) will give you that as well, plus archived radar data from the past 30 days, tools that help you predict where there could be a tornado, hail size and probably information and local storm reports from the National Weather Service.\nIn terms of privacy, Radarscope operates under the policy laid out by parent company Dan. The company says it does not sell information to third parties -- which makes sense, since it's an app you pay for.\nDark Sky differentiates itself with an interactive world map feature that lets you zoom in and out of various countries, states and cities to track radar, forecasts and precipitation. Dark Sky is free on Android and $4 on iOS, but you can upgrade to premium for $3 per year to get down-to-the-minute forecasts, rain notifications, severe weather alerts and other custom notifications, and widgets for your home screen along with OS app and complications for your smartwatch.\nWhen I opened the app again, it said, “Ah, spring -- that time of year when the weather finally gets nice again, but you still say inside playing video games.” You can change the app's “personality” in the settings, to friendly, snarky, homicidal or overkill (includes profanity), as well as its politics.\nOne topic all Canadians talk about is the weather and to have a good conversation you need to know the forecast. Everything from the current temperature to a weather radar are available and there are no in- app purchases to fill-in missing information or features.\nThough the UI isn’t pretty, it’s well organized and has all the information from The Weather Network website, including a video of the recent forecast. Motion does not have a detailed weather forecast, but the information it does have is updated every 5 minutes and presented clearly.\nYou can also send Motion weather status updates, such as Partly Cloudy or Snow, by tapping on the eye icon. If you want to see their professional grade storm tracking tools or a boating centric forecast you can buy a 6-month subscription with an in- app purchase.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

While it was previously assumed that these lakes were significant CO2 sources, it has since been discovered that they really emit very little CO2 but a lot of methane, adding to the emissions burden. The study is published in Science Advances.\nOne of the keys to predict climate change is to predict how greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from our planet’s natural ecosystems might change. But to do this, it is important to be able to estimate them as accurately as possible and to understand the underlying mechanisms. There are about 1.5 million lakes on Earth. Unlike the oceans, they play an important role in the emission of greenhouse gases. Recognition of the important role of continental waters as emitters of carbon dioxide (CO2 ) and methane (CH4 ) – the two main GHGs – came rather late. It was not until in the mid-1990s that they began to be studied and are therefore relatively little sampled. “This is problematic, explains Alberto Borges, oceanographer at the Laboratory of Chemical Oceanography at the University of Liège, “because spatial heterogeneity is very important, both within a single lake or river and between different systems. If the heterogeneity is very high, very large amounts of data are required to obtain a robust estimate of GHG emissions. There are almost two million lakes on Earth.”\nUntil now, researchers have only had data on North American and Scandinavian (boreal) lakes and very little on tropical lakes and none on African lakes. These values were extrapolated to all lakes worldwide, including tropical lakes. However, these lakes do not “behave” in the same way in terms of GHG sequestration and emissions. A study conducted over ten years by researchers from the ULiège Chemical Oceanography Laboratory has shown that the data collected for North American and Scandinavian lakes does not apply to African lakes.\n“The micro-algae that make up the phytoplankton are very fond of the warm and luminous conditions of the tropical ‘endless summer’,” says Alberto Borges, “which means that some of the African lakes that we have studied are extremely productive. However, through photosynthesis, phytoplankton remove CO2 from the water and these lakes therefore sequester CO2 in the form of organic matter buried at the bottom of the lakes in the sediments. They therefore act as carbon sinks, whereas until now it had always been assumed that lakes emitted CO2 in very large quantities into the atmosphere, as do boreal lakes. Indeed, due to the colder and less luminous conditions, boreal lakes have very little phytoplankton and are limited to “composting” plant waste from the surrounding forest, which is transported to the lakes by runoff, and therefore cannot play the role of sink as African lakes do.\nBut the warm tropical conditions all year round have a downside. The heat is very favourable to the development of archaea, micro-organisms that produce methane (CH4). This means that methane concentrations in tropical lakes are very high compared to boreal lakes, especially as the phytoplankton that sediment at the bottom of tropical lakes provide a very interesting substrate from a ‘nutrient’ point of view for methane-producing archaea. What was thought to be ‘gained’ in tropical lakes in terms of CO2 sequestration, is in fact ‘lost’ through increased CH production4 .\n“Thanks to an understanding of the mechanisms underlying the production of CO2 and CH4 by lakes (depth and surrounding vegetation cover), we can now have a more informed and rigorous approach to the situation rather than a blind extrapolation based on a simple average of all the data, as has been done until now in the literature,” concluded Alberto Borges. The study carried out by the ULiège researchers allowed for the extrapolation of CO2 and CH4 emissions to 72,500 tropical lakes around the world by integrating several spatial databases. This study, which has just been published in Science Advances, synthesises measurements obtained over more than 10 years in 24 African lakes, including the largest of the African Rift (Victoria, Tanganyika, Albert, Kivu, Edouard), during 17 field missions, in the framework of 2 BELSPO projects (EAGLES, HIPE) and 5 FNRS projects (TRANS-CONGO, LAVIGAS, TANGAGAS, KYBALGAS, MAITURIK).","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But on special dates scattered throughout the year, skywatchers can catch a multitude of flares as meteor showers burst in the darkness.\nThe next event is the Orionids, which lasts until about Nov. 22 but reaches its peak tonight, on Friday, Oct. 20, into the morning of Saturday, Oct. 21.\nMeteor showers occur when our planet runs into the debris fields left behind by icy comets or rocky asteroids going around the sun. These small particles burn up in the atmosphere, leading to blazing trails of light. The regularity of orbital mechanics means that any given meteor shower happens at roughly the same time each year, with the changing phases of the bright moon being the main variable affecting their visibility.\nAfter hitting the outbound trail of Halley’s comet in May, Earth every October runs into the debris the comet leaves as it heads toward the sun, producing the Orionid meteor shower. It is a medium-strength shower, usually producing 10 to 20 streaks per hour, although in exceptional years it can create up to 70 per hour.\nThe moon will be around a third full this year but will set around midnight, leaving the sky clear of its influence. The shower will be viewable all over the world between midnight and 4 a.m. local time.\nSubscribe to the Times Space and Astronomy Calendar to get a reminder ahead of this and other events.\nHow to see a shower\nThe best practice is to head out to the countryside and get as far from artificial light sources as possible. People in rural areas may have the luxury of just stepping outside. But city-dwellers have options, too.\nMany cities have an astronomical society that maintains a dedicated dark sky area. “I would suggest contacting them and finding out where they have their location,” Robert Lunsford, the secretary general of the International Meteor Organization, said in an interview with The New York Times in 2022.\nMeteor showers are usually best viewed when the sky is darkest, after midnight but before sunrise. To see as many meteors as possible, wait 30 to 45 minutes after you get to your viewing location. That will allow your eyes to adjust to the dark. Then lie back and take in a large swath of the night sky. Clear nights, higher altitudes and times when the moon is slim or absent are best. Mr. Lunsford suggested a good rule of thumb: “The more stars you can see, the more meteors you can see.”\nBinoculars or telescopes aren’t necessary for meteor showers, and in fact will limit your view.\nHow meteor showers form\nEach shower peaks on a certain date when Earth is plowing into the densest portion of the debris field, though in some cases many meteors can still be seen before or after that specific night.\nA shower is named for a constellation in the part of the sky it appears to streak from. But there’s no need to be perfectly versed in every detail of the celestial sphere. Meteors should be visible all over the sky during any given shower.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Photos and videos show water rushing into Dinosaur Playground near West 97th Street, and long stretches of walkway within the park completely underwater.\nBy Friday evening there had been nearly eight inches of rain at John F. Kennedy International Airport, making it the wettest day at the airport since precipitation records first began getting tracked in 1948. The city is on track for the most rain ever in a single day, according to Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine.\nA flash flood warning for Manhattan and the Bronx was in effect until 4 p.m., with an additional two to four inches of rain possible by the end of the day, according to the city’s emergency management system. Elected officials are also urging any New Yorkers in a basement apartment to get to higher ground.\nFor those who had larger travel plans, LaGuardia’s Terminal A remains closed since Friday morning and a long list of flights are disrupted and delayed.

Residents in the Rhone Alpes, Burgundy and Auvergne regions have been affected by the black-outs. Electricity provider ERDF has mobilized 640 technicians to restore power to affected areas.\n- Roads have also been blocked in the city of St Etienne, which has alsmost come to a stand still with local bus and tram services reportedly unable to operate.\n- The city of Paris is set to bring forward by over a week its annual cold-weather masterplan (\"plan grand froid\"), in anticipation of continued low temperatures, says TF1. The plan contains provisions for shelter for homeless people in the capital.\nTwenty five departments across France were put on \"Orange alert\" by the country’s meteorological service Meteo France on Wednesday after heavy snow fell across the centre of the country. The warnings in some areas are set to stay in place until Friday.\nAs shown in the map below, the 25 departments where severe weather warnings are in place are: Ain, Isère, Haute-Loire, Rhône et la Loire, Allier, Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, Ardèche, Ardennes, Cantal, Corrèze, Côte-d'Or, Doubs, Drôme, Jura, Haute-Marne, Puy-de-Dôme, Haute-Saône, Saône-et-Loire, Savoie, Haute-Savoie and Lorraine.\nEarlier in the day Meteo France says snow falls can be expected anywhere above 200 metres in altitude.\nLyon is also expected to see the first snow falls of the winter and in the east of the Haute Loire department Meteo France are predicting up to 40cm of the snow.\nMotorists in Ain and Isere departments have been warned about the knock-on effects of the icy spell on the roads, where the winter weather is expected to cause disruption. The city of St Etienne in central France was given a healthy covering of wno of Wednesday as seen in this image below.\n— Philippe LOUAT (@PhilippeLOUAT) November 20, 2013\nResidents in St Etienne have been advised to stay at home and to avoid making unnecessary car journeys.\nTrain services in the region have been severely hit by the weather with delays reported on lines in and out and both St Etienne and Lyon towards Grenoble and Chambery.\nMeanwhile temperatures across France hovered around zero for much of the morning and were not expected to rise above 7°C during the day.\nHave you been affected by the snow in your region?

At 06Z on Saturday, Beta was upgraded to the 13th hurricane of the season, then at 06Z on Sunday, became the 7th major hurricane of the season just 50 miles off the Nicaragua coast. The combined effects of very slow motion and intensification to a major hurricane caused tremendous rain to fall, and of course, flash floods. Miraculously, no deaths have been reported yet, and only a few dozen injuries (this is preliminary). Two big reasons are that the eyewall was very tiny, and more importantly, the citizens were warned and evacuated the coasts before the storm hit. This is a welcome change of pace, after Katrina killed nearly 1100 people, Stan killed over 1600, Wilma killed 38, and the list goes on with Dennis, Emily, Rita, etc. Overall, a very costly and deadly few months. From Arlene through Beta, the season's NTC is now a staggering 249%, obliterating the past records for entire seasons. There is exactly one month remaining in this hurricane season, and any further activity will just clinch the record even more firmly.\nPlease visit my tropical Atlantic headquarters.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Mississippi Emergency Management Agency confirmed with AccuWeather that the first fatality had happened when a tree fell onto a vehicle in Yazoo County, located in the west-central part of the state.\nThe second fatality occurred in Arkansas's Scott County after a man's truck was likely swept from the roadway and into the Poteau River by flash flooding, according to the Scott County Sheriff's Department. At least 7 inches of rainfall fell over Waldron, Arkansas, where the man had been found.\nThree deaths in Kentucky were confirmed Friday evening by Gov. Andy Beshear, who had declared a state of emergency ahead of the severe weather.\n\"I am sad to report we have one weather-related death today in Simpson County,\" the governor said over Twitter. The second death, this one in Edmonson County, was reported a little over half an hour later. The third death was confirmed in Logan County on Friday night. No further details were provided on the fatality, though the state wasn't spared by the vicious winds that had raked across the south-central U.S. the previous day.\nA fourth Kentucky death was also reported Friday, with the Fayette County coroner's office telling CNN that a 41-year-old woman died in Lexington after a tree fell onto a vehicle. Beshear confirmed a fifth Kentucky death on Saturday morning.\nThe Kentucky State Police reported several incidents over social media where semi-trailer trucks had been blown off the road and, in some cases, overturned. \"This is an example of just how dangerous the winds are today across Kentucky,\" Beshear said over Twitter, sharing one of the images from the police. \"In some areas, thunderstorms are producing winds of 80 mph -- strong enough to blow tractor trailers off the road.\"\nSimilar circumstances led to three fatalities in Alabama. In Talladega County, a man was killed when a tree fell onto his parked car. Information regarding the two additional deaths, in Lauderdale and Madison counties, was not immediately available.\n\"Earlier today, a strong storm system made its way through our state and tragically claimed the lives of three Alabamians. Please join me in uplifting their families and communities in prayer during this heartbreaking time,\" Alabama Governor Kay Ivey announced on Twitter.\nTwo deaths in Tennessee were both related to falling trees, including the death of an elderly woman in the city of Hendersonville after a tree fell on her while out walking. In Humphreys County, a man died after a tree fell on the vehicle he was riding in, county officials told CNN.\nThe winds were just as brutal on Thursday as the storms began to ramp up in Texas. Severe thunderstorm watches were issued for portions of North Texas, and a tornado watch issued shortly before 3 p.m. CST covered the Dallas-Fort Worth area and over 9.8 million residents. The punishing winds tearing across the flat landscape prompted a severe thunderstorm warning for Fort Worth and later Dallas, the National Weather Service warning it was a \"life-threatening\" situation as the \"destructive storm\" would contain wind gusts up to 80 miles per hour.\nThe warnings were issued around the evening rush hour, and at least 21 motor vehicle crashes occurred during the severe weather event in the Fort Worth area, MedStar Mobile Healthcare Chief Transformation Officer told AccuWeather National Reporter Bill Wadell. Among the crashes were three rollovers, including one involving an 18-wheeler. At least four people were transported to a local hospital.\nAt 6 p.m. CST, the Office of Emergency Management activated sirens for the city of Dallas due to damaging winds, officials warning residents to seek shelter immediately.\nWind gusts at North Fort Worth gusted up to 80 mph Thursday evening, and Comstock, located in the southwestern Texas county of Val Verde, reported a gust of up to 81 mph. One of the highest wind gusts from Thursday didn't occur in Texas, however, but in Caddo, Oklahoma, where a wind gust reached 100 mph.\nOne of the top wind reports in Kentucky on Friday was in Hardinsburg, a little over 50 miles southwest of Louisville, where a gust was reported at 75 mph. One of the highest wind gusts reported was in Wears Valley, Tennessee, at 98 mph.\nPower outages across the U.S. surged into the hundreds of thousands by Friday evening amid the vicious winds that tore at power lines and downed trees. The highest number of customers without power was in Kentucky where over 470,000 customers were left in the dark by Friday evening, according to PowerOutage.US. The state was followed by Tennessee, which had over 332,000 customers without power.\nOf those who lost power due to the storms on Friday, many were still left in the dark Sunday morning. In Kentucky, roughly 245,000 customers remain without power, along with over 42,000 in Tennessee.\nAir travel was snarled as well, especially in Texas on Thursday when 382 flights were canceled and another 537 delayed at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, according to FlightAware. Another 98 flights were canceled and 124 were delayed at Dallas Love Field Airport. In Kentucky, Lexington's Blue Grass Airport lost power during the day on Friday, forcing the cancellation or diversion of the day's remaining flights. Power to the airport was not restored until early Saturday morning.\nWhile strong winds were one of the bigger threats throughout the event, a few tornadoes also spawned as the storms darkened the sky.\nThe National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center recorded six preliminary tornado reports in Texas and Louisiana on Friday and an additional two in Kentucky on Friday. In addition to these reports, a survey team from the NWS office in Little Rock determined the damage in Kirby, Arkansas, from Thursday was consistent with a strong EF2 tornado.\nNWS survey teams assessed damage in Pickton, Texas, located in Hopkins County, and confirmed an EF1 tornado with estimated max wind gusts of 110 mph had torn through the area. Other surveys have yet to be completed.\nAdditional reporting by AccuWeather National Reporter Bill Wadell.\nWant next-level safety, ad-free?

The risk increased to 62% in 24 hours.\nParticulates — invisible pollutants that are less than 2.5 micrometres (2.5/100ths of a millimetre) in diameter — are predominantly released into the atmosphere through automobile emissions, power plants and fireplaces.\nThe results stress the importance of heeding smog warnings for those at high risk for a heart attack, said Dr. Murray Mittleman, an assistant professor at Harvard University’s medical school, who led the study.\n“Try and spend more time indoors, preferably with the air conditioning on,” he said. “These particles are so small they do penetrate into indoor air and air conditioning will filter them out.”\nThe study did not address precisely how the particles can bring on heart attacks.\nPast research, however, has shown that the pollutants are so small they can slip past the body’s normal defence mechanisms and cause inflammation in the alveoli, the tiny air sacs of the lungs, causing inflammation and clotting. Such symptoms can increase the likelihood of a heart attack by blocking blood flowing to the heart.\nHealth Canada recently studied the effects of smog and air pollution on 11 Canadian cities and concluded that air pollution causes 5,000 premature deaths annually.\nFor the study, researchers interviewed 722 people who were admitted to Boston hospitals approximately four days after they suffered heart attacks.\nThe study, which appears in today’s edition of Circulation, a research journal of the American Heart Association, is believed to be the first to examine whether air pollution has an immediate effect on the risk of heart attack.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The National Weather Service said Wednesday that “catastrophic and life-threatening flooding will continue in and around Houston eastward into southwest Louisiana for the rest of the week.” The service also warned that “expected heavy rains spreading northeastward from Louisiana into western Kentucky may also lead to flash flooding” across those areas, imperiling a new swath of the population.\nAs Harvey approached, storm-battered Louisiana — where memories of Hurricane Katrina, which made landfall in the state 12 years ago this week, are still fresh — hunkered down, evacuating hundreds of people and deploying the Louisiana National Guard.\nLouisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards (D), in a news conference Tuesday, urged people to “prepare and pray.” Flash flood warnings were issued across eastern Texas and western Louisiana, areas facing mounting rainfall totals as Harvey continued its onslaught.\nBeaumont, Tex., about 80 miles east of Houston, had seen more than 32 inches of rain by Wednesday morning, according to reports released by the National Weather Service. Parts of Interstate-10 near Beaumont were left swallowed by floodwaters — with road signs poking above the wind-driven chop.\nAbout 60 miles to the east, Lake Charles, La., had seen more than a foot of rain, and forecasts say the rain is expected to continue. A storm surge warning was posted across the coast of southern Louisiana, from Holly Beach to Morgan City.\nIn Houston, Harvey’s movements up the coast meant a respite from the heavy rains that have pelted the city since the weekend, even as the storm’s true toll remained ineffably unknown. More than 50 inches of rain over four days had turned the country’s fourth-largest city into a sea of muddy brown water, as boats skimmed along what had been neighborhood streets in search of survivors.\nThe impact in the Houston area was staggering. Between 25 and 30 percent of Harris County — home to 4.5 million people in Houston and its near suburbs — was flooded as of Tuesday afternoon, according to Jeff Lindner, a meteorologist with the county flood control district. That is an area potentially as large as New York City and Chicago combined.\nEven though the heavy rain had departed and glimmers of hope — along with glimpses of the sun — had returned to Houston, officials were still struggling to define the enormity of what had happened.\nAt least 22 deaths were blamed on the storm, a number expected to rise as authorities are able to enter flooded homes and cars. The toll includes Sgt. Steve Perez with the Houston Police Department. The 60-year-old veteran officer’s body was found early Tuesday morning, officials said, after he drowned while driving in to work early Sunday morning during the storm’s peak.\n“He laid down his life,” Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo said during an emotional news briefing Tuesday.\nOther stories of loss, grief and agony had begun to emerge. Six family members were apparently swept away while trying to escape the storm. Police in Beaumont, Tex., said Tuesday that a woman and her young child had gotten out of their car on a flooded road and were swept into a canal. When authorities found them, the young girl was clinging to her mother and about to go under a trestle, where they would have been lost for good, police said. The mother died, while the young girl is in stable condition.\nHouston Mayor Sylvester Turner imposed a curfew in the city starting Tuesday from midnight to 5 a.m. local time to deter looting of abandoned homes.\n“There are some who might want to take advantage of this situation, so even before it gets a foothold in the city, we just need to hold things in check,” Turner said at a news conference.\nIt was still too early to assess the total number of homes and other buildings damaged, in part because rescue crews were still having trouble even reaching some areas because of flooded or flood-damaged roads, said Francisco Sanchez, spokesman for the Harris County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management.\n“We’re still in the middle of the response,” he said.\nA close-up view of the flooding in Houston View Graphic","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Rain of more than four days would pose a risk, the utility said.\n“Several plans are in place in anticipation of the storm, and Eskom is also covering a wider area than what is predicted by the weather specialists to ensure we are not caught off guard,” the utility said.\nEskom said there were also some power stations in the Mpumalanga area that have been experiencing ash dam constraints. “Continuous heavy rainfall over these power stations could hamper operations and recovery efforts already underway,” it said.\n“We have placed extra staff to attend to faults as quickly as humanly possible, and we ask consumers to exercise patience when they have outages as the safety of our staff is paramount,” it said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The setup for Monday appears very conditional right now. There are two primary issues 1) extensive cloud cover and 2) weakness at 500mb flow. Part 1 is noted by almost 100% RH from 550mb up to 400mb. This will greatly limit daytime heating and resultant instability across the threat area. Said clouds were noted on IR and visible imagery earlier tonight. The true affects of this activity will be monitored during the day tomorrow.\nThe issue with the 500mb winds could be a model thing or it has locked onto something. I'll have to go over the 00z GFS in the morning, but this weakness would cause issues with updrafts and splitting supercells. Much to look at regarding a chase on Monday, especially with Tuesday on my mind. At this point I'm not so inclined to go.\n00z NAM slowed the dryline down for Tuesday, but it is still over driving it. It brings the dryline to I-35 around 00z, I seriously doubt that will happen. There will be impressive jet dynamics, but gonna be tough to remove 150 mb of 10C + moisture out of the region. Now, the NAM veers 850mb flow and this is a model bias, at least I've seen it before. So, I'm gonna stay middle of the road right now on Tuesday.\nI think SPC will continue the moderate risk pending cloud cover, it may get dropped at 16:30z. I'm quite confident they'll continue the moderate for Tuesday and may even go to a high or hint at a high risk.\nFor more information, weather news, weather blog, and chase summaries go to http://www.hook-echo.com.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But August is set to be different, with two full moons appearing before the month is out.\nNot only will there be a double-showing of the full moon, but they'll also be supermoons meaning they will be brighter and larger than usual.\nSupermoons take place because the moon orbits the Earth in an oval shape, meaning that its distance from our planet changes as it travels. A supermoon takes place when the moon is at the closest point to Earth.\nAccording to Old Farmer's Almanac, the first of these supermoons will take place on August 1, when Canadians will be able to see the Sturgeon Moon.\nLater in the month, on the evening of August 30 into the morning of August 31, we'll get the Blue Moon. Sadly, this doesn't mean the moon will actually be blue. It is a rarer phenomenon though, only happening every two to three years, Old Farmer's Almanac added.\nAs well as two supermoons, Canadians will also be treated to the peak of the Perseids meteor shower in mid-August.\nAccording to NASA, Perseids is considered the \"best meteor shower of the year\" and while it kicked off on July 17, the peak will be taking place on the night of August 12 into the early hours of August 13, 2023.\nWhen the shower peaks, you may be able to see up to 100 meteors an hour travelling through the sky at speeds of 59 kilometres a second.\nIn September, Canadians may be able to catch a glimpse of another supermoon in the sky. On September 28 into September 29, the Harvest Moon will be making an appearance and it'll be the last supermoon of the year, EarthSky said.\nAccording to Farmer's Almanac, the Harvest Moon gets its name by being the closest full moon to the fall equinox, which this year lands on September 23.\nThe peak illumination of the supermoon will be at 5:58 a.m. ET so you'll need to be an early riser to catch it at its best.\nOctober will be the month of eclipses with both a solar eclipse and a lunar eclipse expected to be visible in parts of Canada over the course of the month.\nAccording to the Canadian Space Agency, a partial solar eclipse will be visible across Canada on October 14, 2023, because the moon will come between the Earth and the Sun, casting a shadow over Earth.\nIf you want to check it out, you'll need to buy some special sunglasses with filters specifically designed for eclipse watching. Regular sunglasses unfortunately won't protect your eyes well enough, the space agency warns.\nLater in the month, people in eastern and northern Canada will be able to see a partial lunar eclipse on the night of October 28 into the morning of October 29, 2023.\nThis happens when the Earth is in between the Moon and the Sun, and the Moon passes into the shadow cast by Earth, the Canadian Space Agency said.\nAs well as the eclipses, October will also see the peak of the Orionids meteor shower on October 20 into October 21, 2023, where you'll be able to see around 10 to 20 meteors per hour, according to EarthSky.\nIn November, Canadians might just be able to catch a glimpse of three different meteor showers taking place throughout the month.\nFirst up will be the Southern Taurids meteor shower, which according to EarthSky, is predicted to peak around November 6, 2023. It'll be followed by the Northern Taurids which are predicted to peak on November 13, 2023.Neither of these showers have noticeable peaks in the way other meteor showers do but they're especially visible from late October into early November when they coincide.\nTaurid meteors tend to be slow-moving but they can actually be very bright, EarthSky added. With optimal viewing conditions (a dark sky with no moon), the showers produce around five meteors an hour or up to 10 if they're overlapping.\nThe Taurids have also been known to produce fireballs, however, it's unlikely in 2023 as they come around usually every seven years, with the last fireballs seen in 2022.\nShortly after the Taurids, Canadians will also be able to catch the Leonids meteor shower which is due to peak on late night of November 17 until dawn on November 18. However, you may also catch a good view on the morning of November 17, EarthySky said.\nConditions for seeing the meteor shower are likely to be pretty good around this time too as the first quarter moon falls on November 20, meaning there won't be too much interference from the moonlight during this shower. You could potentially see 10 to 15 meteors per hour.\nDecember brings even more meteor showers to Canadian skies, including the Geminids, which according to EarthSky is one of the \"Northern Hemisphere’s best showers.\"\nThe \"bold, white, bright\" Geminids are predicted to peak around December 13 and 14, 2023 and you'll be able to see them all night long.As the new moon falls on December 12, the sky will be pretty dark during the peak of the Geminids shower so if you're prepared to wrap up and brave the cold, you might just catch a spectacular show of shooting stars.\nLater in the month, the final shower of the year – the Ursids meteor shower – is predicted to peak around December 23 so looking out for them on the early morning hours of December 22 and 23 is the best time, EarthSky said.\nHowever, the hourly rate of meteors during this shower is usually a lot less than the Geminids and the Moon will be at around 85% illumination which could interfere with seeing shooting stars until the Moon sets around three hours before sunrise.\nWhere to see these celestial events\nFor the very best views of the supermoons or meteor showers, you'll need a dark sky with little to no light pollution so it's always worth heading to one of Canada's many dark sky preserves across the country.\nParks Canada has 13 different dark sky preserves across provinces and territories that are well worth checking out for the most impressive views of the night sky. A full list can be found on the Parks Canada website.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Iacono, chief scientist at the observatory, said in an e-mail.\nThe observatory said in an October summary that the month was “very cloudy with only 117.9 hours of bright sunshine, or 36 percent of possible, which was 20 percent less than the long-term average.”\nOnly one October, since records were first kept at Blue Hill in 1886, was darker. That was 1913, when there were 80.5 hours of bright sunshine, or 24 percent of the possible amount, the observatory said.\nThe observatory uses a special device, a Campbell-Stokes sunshine recorder, to track bright sunshine. The device essentially uses a crystal ball to focus sunlight into a point of light that burns a replaceable paper card in the instrument, Iacono said.\nIt didn’t help in October that a “bomb cyclone” with record low pressures roared up the coast and left hundreds of thousands of Massachusetts electric customers with power outages.\nIacono said the observatory hasn’t fully processed data for November yet, but so far the month is “closer to or slightly above average sunshine (and cloudiness).”\nThe National Weather Service in Boston also said skies have been clearer in November than October.\nStill, November poses its own inherent problems for the sunshine-starved.\nThe days are getting shorter, and daylight saving time ends early in the month, so night suddenly arrives earlier.\nOn Wednesday, the sun will set at 4:14 p.m. after being above the horizon for just nine hours and 25 minutes.\nThe length of the day has dropped about an hour since the beginning of the month. (It will bottom out in December at nine hours and four minutes.).\nClouds moved in Wednesday after two gloriously sunny days Monday and Tuesday. Showers are expected Wednesday and Thursday morning.\nThe good news is that sunshine is expected to return Thursday afternoon, Friday, and Saturday. It will be a good Thanksgiving break for those yearning for some rays — before snow and rain arrive for Sunday and Monday.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

No serious injuries were immediately reported.\nThe National Weather Service issued a tornado emergency for that area, warning that a “large, extremely dangerous and potentially deadly tornado” was stalled Tuesday afternoon and headed toward Baytown, about 25 miles (40 kilometers ) east of Houston. . The warning expired as the system moved east, leaving cooler temperatures behind.\nStrong winds damaged commercial buildings, homes and power lines near Pasadena, a city southeast of Houston. Utility poles and power lines were downed and several vehicles, including a trailer, were damaged or overturned in a parking lot.\nFootage from Houston television station KTRK showed several businesses suffering heavy damage, including the city’s animal shelter. Fences and shingles were up and parts of roofs were ripped from homes nearby, but there were no immediate reports of injuries.\nThe American Red Cross said it is opening a shelter in Pasadena.\nIn Baytown, power lines were down and there was damage to homes and businesses, but no serious injuries were reported, Baytown spokesman Jason Calder said.\nOfficials near Deer Park said the tornado caused major damage to a nursing home. The residents had to be taken away, but no one was injured.\nAs emergency crews worked to restore power, Deer Park Mayor Jerry Mouton Jr. urged anyone who needs a place to stay to watch outside his city.\n“There’s a part of me that’s amazed no one was hurt,” Mouton said. “We will take care of the property, recover and rebuild.”\nMany of the area’s suburbs have a strong presence of petrochemical industry sites.\nShell Chemicals’ Deer Park facility was burning or flaring natural gas after losing steam due to bad weather, according to Shell spokesman Curtis Smith.\n“We are taking steps to minimize any noise, light or smoke associated with this activity, although it is expected to continue until facilities are restarted,” Smith said via email. “There is no threat to the community and no indication that a nearby tornado touched down at the chemical plant.”\nThe website PowerOutage.us, which collects real-time data on utility outages across the United States, reported that about 67,000 customers in Texas were without power Tuesday evening, mostly in the Houston area and surrounding counties. The site reported about 28,000 outages in nearby Arkansas and about 25,000 in Louisiana.\nThe storm system was also bringing snow and ice to much of the central United States\nSchools and businesses were closed Tuesday in Oklahoma, where snow fell between 1 and 6 inches (3 and 15 centimeters) in central and eastern parts of the state. Several school districts in southwest Louisiana dismissed students early Tuesday in anticipation of severe weather in the area.\nMurphy reported from Oklahoma City.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The instrument was installed last week on the roof of the port’s pedestrian processing building. It is now one of five active monitors maintained by the district that measures fine particulates known as PM 2.5 in real time.\nThe instrument is seen as an important step to providing public information on a 24-hour basis about the levels of pollution near the port of entry — whether from vehicle emissions at the port, or other sources on either side of the border.\n“When we think about the border and this region, it is one airshed,” said Jared Blumenfeld, EPA’s regional administrator for the Pacific Southwest. “This air shed does not respect boundaries; it blows every way that it wants to.”\nTraffic-related air pollution for years has been a source of concern in San Ysidro. A study published last year in the journal Atmospheric Environment stated that proximity to the crossing “may increase exposures to traffic-related pollutants in the local community, and that long northbound wait times may contribute to pollution levels.”\nThe new monitor also can help evaluate the health risks from pollution to pedestrian crossers, vendors, border inspectors and others exposed to the car fumes, sometimes for hours at a time.\nThe monitor “is going to provide information around the clock every day of the year,” said Michael Benjamin, chief of monitoring for the California Air Resources Board. “It will allow us to understand trends, time of day, and month, to measure the effectiveness of pollution control programs on both sides of the border.”\nThe monitor is currently the only one on the California-Mexico border that is directly at a crossing. The Air Pollution Control District previously maintained one at the Otay Mesa Port of Entry, but it looked at somewhat larger particles, and has since been moved to the Donovan State Prison, said Mahmood Hossain, chief of monitoring and technical services at the San Diego County Air Pollution Control District.\nSo far, the results have shown no appreciable difference in air quality at the border compared with other parts of the county. On Tuesday night, the Air Pollution Control District’s website ranked the air quality as moderate in San Ysidro, as it did for Otay Mesa and downtown.\nRobert Kard, head of the air pollution control district, said the acquisition of the new air quality monitor “is the opening salvo on how we’re going to do more localized monitoring.” The district’s “big monitors help us comply with federal law, but they don’t tell us what the local impacts are.”\nCelebrating the new monitor on Tuesday were Matthew Rodriguez, California Environmental Protection Agency secretary, and San Diego County Supervisor Greg Cox. Also participating were representatives of Casa Familiar, a San Ysidro social services agency, and the Environmental Health Coalition.\nSan Diego County currently is in compliance with federal clean air requirements for fine particulates, but “we want to know more about the quality in San Ysidro and how it’s affected by 50,000 cars a day coming across the border,” Cox said.\nCommunity groups for years have been clamoring for air quality data on San Ysidro.\n“We got word last month that this was going to happen, and we were elated,” said David Flores, community development officer at Casa Familiar. “The information is finally here that we can explain to the community what a range of healthy air is, and when they need to be cautious for sending kids outdoors if they have asthma.”\nThe information provided by the monitor can be important to determining San Ysidro’s ranking compared with other vulnerable communities in CalEnviroscreen, an online tool developed by CalEPA. Without data on San Ysidro, “the border area didn’t rank high as a community of concern,” said Georgette Gomez of the Environmental Health Coalition.\nSan Diego State University professor Penelope Quintana, one of the authors of the Atmospheric Environment report, called the monitor “an important first step.” But Quintana said there remains a need for more detailed monitoring of the traffic exhaust: “We know there are very bad actors in these particles, and they should be measuring those as well,” she said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Severe weather should be taken seriously – it can be dangerous and harm both you and your property.\nIn a thunderstorm:\n- Avoid handling metal, electrical equipment, telephones, bathtubs, water faucets, and sinks because lightning can follow the wires and pipes. Be especially careful with televisions.\n- If there is a severe thunderstorm, take cover immediately in a stable facility, but avoid trees.\nIn a flash flood:\n- Seek high ground. Never attempt to drive your vehicle through standing water.\nIn a tornado:\n- Go to your basement or the lowest point of your residence, or an interior room or hallway without windows. If you cannot find shelter, take cover in a ditch or other recessed area. If you are asked to evacuate, do so immediately.\nSome measures to help you weather major storms:\n- Shutter or board windows.\n- Secure outdoor objects such as lawn furniture or garbage cans that could blow away and cause damage or injury.\n- Never touch or go near downed power lines, even if you think they are safe.\n- In extreme conditions, consider shutting off power and appliance gas switches to prevent damage to your appliances.\nDuring severe weather, dress appropriately for weather conditions. Stay updated by watching TV or listening to the radio. The National Weather Service broadcasts forecasts, warnings, and other information 24 hours a day. Special weather radios are available at local retail stores.\n- Severe Thunderstorm Warning\nA severe thunderstorm is occurring.\n- Tornado Watch\nA tornado could form in the next few hours.\n- Tornado Warning\nA tornado has been reported and/or the National Weather Service radar has detected a tornado or tornadic signature.\n- Flash Flood Watch\nLocalized flooding due to heavy rainfall is possible.\n- Flash Flood Warning\nLocalized flooding due to heavy rainfall is imminent.\n- Freezing Rain Advisory\nMinor accumulation of ice due to freezing rain is expected.\n- Winter Weather Advisory\nA minor accumulation of snow, sleet and freezing rain is expected.\n- Snow Advisory\nAccumulations of one to four inches expected within a 12 hour period.\n- Blizzard Warning\nStrong winds, blinding driven snow, and dangerous wind chill are expected in the next several hours.\n- Winter Storm Watch\nSignificant accumulation of snow and/or ice is possible within 36 hours.\n- Winter Storm Warning\nA storm with six or more inches of snow/sleet/ freezing rain within a 24- hour period is expected.\nSee the National Weather Service website at www.weather.gov for more information.\nDangerous winter weather includes winter storms and blizzards. These can involve a combination of heavy snow, ice accumulation, and dangerous wind chills.\nDress warmly and stay dry:\n- Wear hats, scarves, layers, and water-repellent coats.\n- Wear mittens instead of gloves; they are warmer.\n- Make sure small children – especially babies – stay warm, as infants can easily become hypothermic under conditions that would not necessarily be as dangerous for adults.\nCover your mouth:\n- Protect your lungs from extremely cold air by covering your mouth when outdoors.\n- Take your time while shoveling snow or pushing a car. Stretch before you go out and drink plenty of non-alcoholic, non-caffeinated fluids.\n- Be sure to clear snow from your tail pipe before you start your car to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning.\nMany fires and emergencies are caused every year from unsafe heating. If you live in a multi unit residential building and do not have heat, contact your building owner. Follow these tips for safe heating:\n- Fuel-burning items (such as furnaces, boilers, hot water heaters, and clothes dryers) should be working, ventilated, and inspected by a professional regularly in order to prevent unintentional carbon monoxide poisoning.\n- Electric heaters should be used with extreme caution to prevent shock, fire, and burns.\n- Materials near heaters should be kept at least three feet from the heat source to prevent fire.\n- Gas ovens and burners should never be used to heat your home.\nFollow these steps to stay cool:\n- Stay out of the sun. When in the sun, wear sunscreen (at least SPF 15).\n- Wear lightweight, light-colored, loose-fitting clothes that cover as much skin as possible to prevent sunburn.\n- Give your body a chance to adjust to extreme temperature changes.\n- Drink plenty of non-alcoholic, non-caffeinated fluids.\n- Use shades or awnings.\n- Consider going to public pools and air-conditioned stores and malls.\n- Never leave children, pets, or those who require special care in a parked car during periods of intense summer heat.\n- Find a cooling center.\n- Heat Wave\nProlonged period of excessive heat often combined with excessive humidity.\n- Heat Index\nNumber of degrees Fahrenheit that indicates how it feels when relative humidity is factored into air temperature.\n- Heat Advisory\nWhen the heat index exceeds 100°F for less than three hours a day for two consecutive days.\n- Excessive Heat Warning\nWhen the heat index is expected to exceed 115°F or when it exceeds 100°F for three or more hours for two consecutive days.\n- Excessive Heat Watch\nA long-term alert for excessive heat.\n- Ozone Advisory\nIssued when ozone levels are expected to exceed 0.08 parts per million of ozone over an eight-hour period. People should limit their outdoor activity and those with respiratory problems (such as asthma) should be especially careful and avoid strenuous activity.\nHeat cramps are muscular pains and spasms resulting from heavy exertion. Although heat cramps are the least severe heat-related illness, they are an early signal that the body is having trouble coping with heat and should be treated immediately with rest and fluids. Stretching or direct pressure can also reduce cramps. Unless very severe, heat cramps do not require emergency medical attention.\nHeat exhaustion occurs when body fluids are lost through heavy sweating due to vigorous exercise or working in a hot, humid place. Symptoms include: sweating; pale, clammy skin; fatigue; headache; dizziness; shallow breaths; and a weak or rapid pulse. Victims of heat exhaustion are tired but not confused. The condition should be treated with rest in a cool area, drinking water or electrolyte solutions, elevating the feet 12 inches, and further medical treatment in severe cases. If not treated, the victim's condition may escalate to heat stroke. If the victim does not respond to basic treatment, seek medical attention.\nHeat stroke(also called \"sunstroke\"):\nThe victim's temperature control system, which produces sweat to cool the body, stops working. The skin is flushed, hot and dry, and body temperature may be elevated. The victim may also be confused, develop seizures, breathe shallowly and have a weak or rapid pulse. This is the most serious heat-related illness and people exhibiting these symptoms should seek emergency medical attention.\nDuring the summer months, people are especially vulnerable to the hazards created by hot weather. The asphalt, concrete and metal that make up the City absorb heat and make it difficult for the City to cool down. This is known as the \"heat island\" effect. Heat waves are particularly dangerous for children and people with special needs. Please check on your neighbors and offer them assistance.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

And although no asphalt was showing, traffic moved smoothly at speeds ranging from 35 to 45mph, and the next day black asphalt popped out almost as fast as the sun overhead.\nWhy didn't this happen last time?\nFor starters, the depth was less: 10.5 inches this time versus 20.5 inches, as measured at UVA's McCormick Observatory.\nThe other big thing was timing, says Lou Hatter, the VDOT spokesperson, pointing out that the December storm started piling up amid afternoon rush hour and creating a \"bonding\" experience that wasn't positive.\n\"The heavy volume of traffic during that afternoon commute,\" says Hatter, \"coupled with additional volume due to the upcoming holiday, made it difficult for our trucks to get the initial application of sand and salt onto all the roads before the snow accumulated and got packed onto and bonded to the road surface.\"\nIn both storms, Hatter says VDOT crews applied an anti-icing brine mixture–- visible recently as stripes on Emmet Street. \"But once the snow bonds to the road surface,\" he says, \"it becomes much more difficult to remove.\nBy noon Sunday, January 24, even though the day dawned with single-digit temperatures, all the major thoroughfares were completely or nearly completely black asphalt, including Emmet, Main, JPA, Rio, and Ivy–- not to mention the busy Interstate 64 and the 29/250 Bypass–- as the potent mix of chemical treatment, plowing, solar radiation, and the constant pressure from rubber tires combined to keep the roads open.\nWhat didn't open were Albemarle County schools. Already this year delayed for a false-alarm snow and then closed for flooding, they closed again on Monday, Tuesday, and–- due to another storm– on Wednesday of this 'snowmageddon' week.\n\"It’s a big county, and we figured we’d err on the side of caution,” County schools spokesperson Maury Brown said after the January 22 non-snow event.\nBut with snow falling as this issue of the Hook goes to press and as the new weekend 'snowmageddon' approaches, such hasty-in-hindsight closures may just meld into the history books of snow.\n–story rewritten for print at 3:08pm Tuesday, February 2\nMonday, 7:57am update: Despite the winning job of clearing all the primary roads to 100% black asphalt, all the major school systems are closed today.

Original story below:\nOriginal 3:02pm January 27 headline:\n\"Another snow: Flakes expected to begin falling Friday night\"\nJust when most of the last brownish-white piles from the pre-Christmas \"snowpocalypse\" have disappeared, a new snow storm is rearing its head. This time, however, according to the National Weather Service, the heaviest band of snowfall won't be quite as widespread; but there are some double-digit depth estimates out there.\nAccording to a Service map, the heaviest band of snow is currently expected in an east-west swath roughly tracking the Virginia-North Carolina border. That's not to say that Charlottesville won't get snow. It will. But how much is still unknown at this time.\n\"A winter storm with a potential for significant snowfall.\" says the Service. \"There is some uncertainty regarding the track and timing of this storm, so please monitor the latest forecasts.\"\nAlbemarle County spokesperson Lee Catlin is urging everyone to stock up on their necessities now, presumably because of the mammoth traffic jams that accompanied the start and end of the last storm which caught many sectors of the populace–- as well as many road-clearing crews–- less than fully able to deal with the nearly two feet of snow.\n6:58am Thursday update: Though the storm's biggest punch remains on track to fall south of here, the Service just reiterated its \"hazardous weather outlook.\"\n11:59am Thursday update: The track appears to have shifted just a bit to the south.\n5:22pm Thursday update: The NWS now has our area on \"Winter Storm Watch\" with a forecast of \"five or more inches.\" This time, though, instead of arriving at Friday's rush hour, the snow gods have graciously agreed to launch around midnight.\n5:29pm Thursday update: And the nifty over-4-inch map has been revised in our direction!\n6:17am Friday update: Latest estimate is 4-6\" from the NWS office in northern Virginia, but the NWS station in Blackburg–- although we're just outside its map range–- appears to have us in a band expected to receive 8-10\".\n8:58am Friday update: Most schools closed in Tennessee as storm creeps eastward.\n2:44pm Friday update: \"I'm seeing basically the same thing you're seeing out your window,\" says Blacksburg-based National Weather Service Meteorologist Dennis Sleighter. \"High cloud cover moving into the area that's in advance of the new system.\" Sleighter says he hasn't gotten any reports of major snowfall arriving in Virginia yet, but his weather station is predicting over a foot for certain areas along the Virginia-North Carolina border. The latest official estimate for Charlottesville remains just 3-5 inches.\n3:06pm Friday update: Latest NWS forecast calls for half an inch tonight, 2-4\" Saturday, one more inch Sunday, and then sunny skies Sunday. (What if this isn't Snowpocalype II, after all?)\n8:59pm Friday update: It's snowing in Greensboro.\n5:01am Saturday update: About half an inch has fallen at the Hook's Ivy-area weather station, where the temperature is 20.3 degrees, and the wind is calm.\nLatter headline: It's here: Predicted snowfall jumps to 6-10\"\nAnother headline: \"9 inches: Area gets cold but convenient snowfall\"\nYet another: Potent mix: Brine, sweat, and sun combine for clear roads","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

That is worrisome for Craig Fugate, a former director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the Florida Division of Emergency Management, including during the state's devastating 2004 and 2005 hurricane seasons.\nFugate said Thursday that Floridians must brace for storms that will be stronger, have longer periods at top speeds and bring more rain than in the past because of the changing climate.\nFugate, who addressed reporters during a conference call hosted by the National Hurricane Survival Initiative about a new website and year-round awareness campaign titled “Get Ready, Florida!,” said people are expecting a level of forecasting that “isn't there yet.”\nInstead, people should continue to anticipate some uncertainty in forecasting, he said.\n“If we knew exactly where it was going to hit it would be a lot easier, but it isn't,” Fugate said. “As we saw with Irma, a slight jog east or west of that track, we'd have been in a lot different impact. In many ways, with the exception for what happened in extreme Southwest Florida and the Florida Keys, we basically did a lot better than what we thought was going to happen.”\nThe conference call highlighted the need for people in Florida to plan year-round for the six-month hurricane season and for people who live outside flood zones to consider flood insurance.\nA survey by the initiative --- whose members include the non-profit FAIR Foundation, Ocala-based Custom Windows Systems, the Florida Home-Improvement Association, Security First Insurance, the Ygrene Energy Fund, the International Hurricane Research Center at Florida International University and the Salvation Army --- found one in four Floridians are now less trusting of hurricane forecasts because of Irma.\nThe survey also found that many Floridians entered the 2017 storm season without such things as adequate window protection, backup batteries and water supplies or failed to have evacuation plans.\nThe state Division of Emergency Management estimates 6.5 million people took to the road in attempts to avoid the powerful and deadly storm that made landfall Sept. 10 outside Key West and in Collier County before sweeping up the state. At last count, 84 deaths have been attributed to the storm.\nA Mason-Dixon Polling & Research poll in mid-October found that only 57 percent of Floridians said they would follow an evacuation order in the face of a hurricane similar in strength to Irma because the drifting nature of the storm's track initially had an East Coast landing.\nFugate said changes in the earth's climate may not be increasing the number of storms, but their features are getting more intense --- highlighted by the record rainfalls from Hurricane Harvey in Texas and Irma holding maximum sustained winds of 185 miles per hour for more than 24 hours.\n“If you look at Harvey's rainfall, there are a lot of people now coming back and starting to look at how climate is affecting rainfall events and the enhancement on that,” he said. “If you had a storm like Harvey sit over Central Florida can you imagine what 50 inches of rain would do to the Orlando area? And we're seeing this across, not just in our Atlantic basin, but across the world. We're seeing intensifications of rainfall events and intensifications of drought events.”\nFugate noted that the credit-rating agency Moody's Investor Services Inc. last month announced that climate change is forecast to heighten exposure to economic loss, which will place short- and long-term credit pressure on state and local governments.\n“This will be a growing negative credit factor for issuers without sufficient adaptation and mitigation strategies,” Moody's said in a release.\nMoody's noted that after Hurricane Katrina, besides widespread infrastructure damage, revenue declined significantly for New Orleans because a large percentage of the city's population left permanently.\nErik Salna, associate director and meteorologist at Florida International University's hurricane research center, said “more and more” research supports that climate change is causing increasingly intense hurricane rainfall.\n“It is a situation, moving forward for Florida, we being the hurricane capital of the country, not only storms that could come each and every year, but more storms and more damaging storms,” Salna said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Madagascar for example, an island nation in the Indian Ocean roughly the size of Texas, received 14 inches of rain in January. NASA’s Earth Observatory reported how the town of Marovoay had disappeared almost completely beneath flood waters. The Pacific showed even more activity than the Indian Ocean. Super Typhoon Goni broke all records when it made landfall in the Philippines as a category 5 storm on October 31, with wind speeds up to an incredible 195 mph. After Goni killed more than 2 dozen residents, it battered Vietnam. Cleanup in both countries had barely started when typhoon Vamco came along. After flooding large parts of Luzon Island, including the Manila metro area, Vamco followed Goni into Vietnam and brought more death and destruction.\nAmid these large-scale effects of climate change, some places stand out as more vulnerable than others. Well over two-thirds of the world is covered by oceans. This puts coastal locations at greatest risk from tropical storm systems, which develop entirely over sea water. But inland locations can suffer equally if the geography allows for a storm to drop massive rainfall on mountains, which then causes landslides and flooding in the towns down below. An early example of one is Gonaives, Haiti, population 300,000. In September 2008, tropical storm Hannah put large sections of this city under water. Some areas ended up submerged by 6 feet. Marovoay, Madagascar is located at the foot of mountain valleys as well, which brought the floodwaters this January.\nWhere a bay or an estuary meets the ocean, the waves can push into a city directly. The aggravating circumstance in this case is the narrowing of the pathway as water pushes landward. Any long-term resident of Hamburg, Germany knows about the February, 1962 flood. North Sea storm Vincinette, not tropical for a change, pushed deadly flood waves 60 miles up the Elbe River estuary. 315 people drowned. Even I, as a frightened 7-year old back then, remember the television images of people trapped on rooftops, with flood waters lapping at the edges. Locations as diverse as Madagascar, the Philippines, Haiti and Germany will be in the news again as the world’s oceans produce future severe storms.\nRudi Kiefer, Ph.D., is a professor at Brenau University, teaching physical and health sciences on Brenau’s Georgia campuses and in China.

At that time, there was a large area of strong thunderstorms around the center of circulation, and the cloud tops appeared on the infrared imagery to be as cold as or colder than -63 degrees Fahrenheit.\nNASA\\'s Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) infrared instrument onboard the Aqua satellite showed System 91S on Dec. 17 at 0547 UTC (12:47 a.m. EST) inland over in Western Australia and dumping heavy rainfall. Powerful thunderstorms with heavy rainfall appear in purple.\nCredit: NASA/JPL, Ed Olsen\nAccompanying those thunderstorms was heavy rainfall. When NASA's Aqua satellite passed over Western Australia again at 17:41 UTC (12:41 p.m. EST) on Dec. 16, the center of System 91S had already made landfall and was moving inland. It still contained a large area of strong thunderstorms and heavy rainfall, although most were in the western and southern side of the low.\nOn Friday, December 17 (Eastern Time) local radar in Western Australia showed that the remnants of the low were bringing rainfall to inland areas of the region. At 11:05 a.m. EST (12:05 a.m. on Saturday, December 18 WST local time) rain was falling in an oval shaped-area over the towns of Meekatharra, Peak Hill, Reedy, Wiluna and Cue along route 95, also known as the Great Northern Highway. North of those towns, rain was also falling in Collier Range National Park.At 12:05 a.m. on Saturday, December 18 WST local time, the Meekatharra Airport also reported a temperature of 63 degrees Fahrenheit with winds from the east-southeast at 20 mph, and a minimum central pressure of 29.60 inches.\nThe AGBM noted that System 91S's center was near 23 South latitude and 112 East longitude at 7 p.m. WST (6 a.m. EST), which is about 125 miles (200 kilometers) southwest of Exmouth. Exmouth is a town on the tip of the North West Cape in Western Australia.\nAt that time, heavy rain was occurring in a band southeast of the low's center, and AGBM forecasters expect significant rainfall over parts of the Gascoyne, extending east into the northern Goldfields and south to far northern parts of the Central West during the overnight hours (local time). That heavy rainfall is likely to cause flash flooding and rising streams.

The most daylight occurs on June 21, the first day of summer, when the sun crests highest in the South at 1:20 p.m. at an angle of 73 degrees altitude. This day, the days before and after will have 14.95 hours of sunlight. The latest sunset will be at 8:49 p.m., which will hold for June 25 – July 1. June ends with sunrise at 5:54 a.m. and sunset at 8:49 p.m. This large serving of sunlight is due to the Earth’s axis being most tipped towards the sun on June 21.\nVenus is the beautiful evening ‘star’ shining in the West for several hours after sunset. After it gets dark, the bright planet Jupiter appears low in the Southeast. Venus is brighter than Jupiter due to its closeness to both the Earth and the sun. Both Venus and Jupiter are swathed in highly reflective clouds. During the night, the Earth’s rotation will cause Jupiter to roll towards the West, dropping out of view in the early morning hours. During June, the planet Saturn slowly creeps into the evening sky. On June 26, Saturn will be closest to the Earth for the year at a distance of 840 million miles or 75 light minutes. (So when you spot Saturn low in the Southeast at 10 p.m. in late June, you will be seeing Saturn as it was 75 minutes earlier.) Unfortunately Saturn will be too low then so you are advised to wait till 1 a.m. when it will be higher in the South to see Saturn’s rings with a telescope. The orange planet Mars closes in on the Earth during June. In late June, it will rising in the Southeast in the last hour of the evening and will be about as bright as Jupiter but with an orange tint. Mars will be closest to the Earth on July 30, when it will be 36.4 million miles away (only 3.3 light minutes). In late June, the small planet Mercury will appear below and to the right of Venus.\nIn early June, there will be some moonlight in the late evening. Early in the morning of June 3, the planet Mars will appear underneath the moon. On June 6, the moon will appear half full (like a reversed ‘D’) in the southern dawn. On June 13, the moon’s motion will carry the moon from the morning to the evening side of the sun (New Moon). At dusk on June 16, a slender crescent moon will appear to the left of the brilliant planet Venus. On June 20, the evening moon will appear half full (like a ‘D’) in the southwestern sky. On June 23, the moon will appear close to the bright planet Jupiter. On the evening of June 28, the moon will be full, rising about sunset and staying visible all through the night. This full moon will have the lowest sky path, never getting higher than one third up in the South. Next to the moon on that evening will be the planet Saturn.\nOn June 30, the moon will appear near the planet Mars in the last hour of the evening.\nOn June evenings, the star group Cassiopeia (5 stars) appears as a stretched out ‘W’ low in the North. The Big Dipper (7 stars) is slowly descending in the North Northwest with its bowl lower and its handle stars upward. The handle stars if extended in a curve arc outward will take you to Arcturus (ark-TOUR-ess), a bright golden star high in the West. The southern evening sky features the bright planet Jupiter and the star group of the Scorpion, resembling a starry ‘J’. Near the top of the ‘J’ is the bright pinkish star Antares (an-TEAR-ess).

Though I had heard rumblings of a winter storm, it didn’t occur to me that a bit of snow would shut down the city until the news told me to stay home.\nI wasn’t surprised. The East Coast just isn’t as prepared for the weather – or as hardy, if you ask me. But when I heard that back in Minnesota, where I had only one snow day my entire time as a student, that school was preemptively closed statewide due to freezing cold, my attention was piqued.\nAs I’ve watched the Minnesota forecast from the East Coast, I’ve realized that despite twenty plus years in residence, I can’t recall ever living through a winter as cold as the one the state’s experiencing this year. Apparently, my memory is correct: so far this is the coldest winter in Minnesota in 30 years. I’m only 26.\nAs with other cold snaps, the bitter cold weather hitting the nation has led some to use it as evidence against global warming. To scientists, however, our cold weather amnesia only further demonstrates the climate change that has been slowly accelerating over the last several decades.\nOne NASA scientist even used Minneapolis as an example. 30 years ago, Minneapolis experienced roughly 15 nights below -10 degrees Fahrenheit every year. In the last decade, that number has dropped to 4. And though this winter is a brutal one, it’s only the 17th coldest on record and not necessarily an abnormal one – just not what Minnesotans have been getting used to since the 1970s.\nThe new climate is a bit more evident in the more suspicious weather events – the storms that flooded Duluth in 2012, for example. Yet even these, extreme and often costly, they’re dotted in between a slowly and not always obviously changing climate experienced day to day, making it difficult to know what constitutes a rare event and what’s just part of the new normal. It also makes it harder to motivate discussions on what Minnesota should be doing to adapt.\nSo what will Minnesota’s weather look like in another 30 years when we’ve long forgotten about this freezing winter, and what should we be doing to prepare? Meteorologist Paul Douglas is slated to help tackle this question at an event sponsored by Environment Minnesota. Douglas’s presentation, “Weird Weather: Minnesota’s New Normal? Our Changing Climate and What We Can Do About It,” will be held at Eden Prairie High School on February 18th at 7 p.m. and will feature informational exhibits from local organizations before the talk.\nMore information about the event, including how to RSVP, can be found here.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Winter is approaching its halfway mark, but still... we've not had any measurable snow!\nOver the holidays, we certainly didn't have a \"White Christmas\". It was more of a wet and grey holiday season. But usually around January is when we start to brace ourselves for winter to really kick in. Snow boots. Snow plows. Snow Days. Snowball fights. Yet so far, barely any snow shovels have been busted out of the garage.\nWhat do we mean by \"measurable\" snow? The National Weather Service classifies a tenth of an inch, or 0.1 inches, as measurable snow, according to NJ.com. Most of us haven't even gotten that so far!\nHas New Jersey ever gone this long without its first measurable snow before? Yes. Even longer.\nAccording to data from the National Weather Service, late-season snowfalls in New Jersey and surrounding areas go back as far as the 1950's! Here are some of the dates for the latest first measurable snow on record:\n- Sussex - latest first inch of snow: Feb. 1 (1955)\n- Newark - latest first inch of snow: Feb. 13 (1992)\n- New York City - latest first inch of snow: Mar. 22 (1998)\n- New Brunswick- latest first inch of snow: Mar. 19 (1992)\n- Philadelphia - latest first inch of snow: Mar. 22 (1992)\n- Atlantic City - latest first inch of snow: Feb. 24 (1989)\nTechnically, this winter season will run its course from Dec 21, 2022 - March 20, 2023. So there is still plenty of time. We're not even halfway through winter yet.\nWhen will we get measurable snow this winter season?\n(As of Jan 11, 2023) There doesn't seem to be any foreseeable snow shower on the way in our area that will give us those fluffy white inches.

It has been shrinking and becoming more circular since astronomers began observing it about 150 years ago. But nobody could track the speed of its spiral motion until Hubble turned its eye to the distant orange dot in 2009.\nPlanetary scientists Michael Wong and Amy Simon recently analyzed a decade's worth of Hubble data on the Great Red Spot's wind speeds, which can exceed 400 miles per hour. NASA announced on Monday that their research suggests the cyclone's outer band is speeding up: Its wind speeds increased up to 8% from 2009 to 2020. At the same time, its inner region has significantly slowed down.\n\"When I initially saw the results, I asked, 'Does this make sense?' No one has ever seen this before,\" Wong, who works at the University of California, Berkeley, said in a press release. \"But this is something only Hubble can do. Hubble's longevity and ongoing observations make this revelation possible.\"\nOverall, the spot's average wind speed is increasing, though only a tiny bit — less than 1.6 miles per hour per Earth year. Nobody knows yet what the changing winds tell us about the storm overall.\n\"That's hard to diagnose, since Hubble can't see the bottom of the storm very well. Anything below the cloud tops is invisible in the data,\" Wong said. \"But it's an interesting piece of data that can help us understand what's fueling the Great Red Spot and how it's maintaining energy.\"\nWong, Simon, and other researchers first published their findings in the journal Geophysical Research Letters last month.\nThe Great Red Spot is a mystery\nResearchers still don't understand much about the Great Red Spot, including how long it will last.\nThe storm has survived so long because it's wedged between two jet streams — bands of Jupiter's atmosphere — that are moving in different directions. Those are \"feeding momentum into the vortex,\" NASA scientist Glenn Orton previously told Insider.\nSome scientists have suggested the storm will collapse and disappear in just a few decades due to its shrinking size. Others disagree.\nPhilip Marcus, a UC Berkeley researcher who co-authored the new study with Wong and Simon, has argued that \"the Great Red Spot is in no danger of disappearing.\"\n\"To understand the health of the spot, planetary scientists need to study the health of its vortex and not its cloud; the cloud's shrinkage is not a harbinger of death,\" Marcus wrote on Astronomy.com in 2019. \"Based on the spot's interactions with other vortices my Berkeley group found, there is no evidence that that vortex itself has changed its size or intensity.\"\nMeanwhile, other data is also revealing surprises — including that the Great Red Spot is getting taller as it shrinks.\nThen last year, images from Hubble and the ground-based Gemini Observatory revealed holes in the cyclone's cloud cover. Scientists also used those images, combined with data from NASA's Jupiter-orbiting Juno spacecraft, to map lightning strikes within the Great Red Spot.\n\"Because we now routinely have these high-resolution views from a couple of different observatories and wavelengths, we are learning so much more about Jupiter's weather,\" Simon said in a NASA release about that finding last year. \"This is our equivalent of a weather satellite. We can finally start looking at weather cycles.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The current warming of our planet is forecast to have dire effects on life. But a greenhouse effect when Earth was young may have been a boon for life.\nWhen Earth was born, the Sun was fainter and cooler than it is today. That means Earth wouldn’t have received enough energy for liquid water to exist on its surface. Instead, any water would have been frozen solid. And without liquid water, it wouldn’t have been possible for life to take hold. Yet the geologic record of that early era suggests there was liquid water.\nA recent study by researchers at the Southwest Research Institute proposed a possible solution to the problem: a steady bombardment of asteroids.\nBy looking at the craters on the Moon and Mercury, we know that the asteroids pounded the worlds of the inner solar system for several hundred million years. On Earth, those impacts vaporized the asteroids, spewing hot gas and rock into the atmosphere. They also created pools of molten rock on the surface.\nThe recent research says that the bubbling rock released a lot of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the air. That trapped more of the weak solar energy, warming the planet enough to melt the ice and create lakes and oceans. The impacts also delivered much of the chemistry of life.\nSo these powerful collisions might have created a powerful greenhouse effect — turning Earth into a comfortable home for life.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Ice accumulations of one- to two-tenths of an inch are possible too. Winds could gust up to 40 mph.\nThe storm will then move up along Calvert and St. Mary’s counties in Maryland and through D.C. Sunday night, with rain for the majority of the region, which can knock down the amount of snow accumulating on the ground. Some areas are expected to receive freezing rain, sleet or even more snow before the system leaves on Monday morning.\nThe NWS predicts the snow will fall one to 3 inches per hour in the late afternoon and evening Sunday, making “nearing impassable roads.” Storm Team4 Meteorologist Chuck Bell said people should avoid traveling Sunday afternoon through Tuesday morning.\nBell said most of the Interstate 95 corridor will get 3 to 4 inches of snow before the transition to sleet or rain.\nVirginia Gov. Ralph Northam on Friday declared a state of emergency in the commonwealth because of the oncoming storm. “Declaring a state of emergency now allows our emergency responders to prepare, and to move supplies and equipment where they expect to need them the most,” Northam said in a statement. “This also gives Governor-elect Youngkin the ability to respond to any storm needs swiftly. I urge Virginians to take this storm seriously and make preparations now.”\nNortham and state emergency officials talked Friday morning with Youngkin, who takes office Saturday, and his team.\nSome good graphic loops for Sunday’s storm. Yes, it will be a high-impact event. No, it will not be the biggest storm in DC history. Coming on a Sunday afternoon and heading into a Federal holiday on Monday will really help road crews … a lot. https://t.co/d4rMvQDhuv\n— Chuck Bell (@ChuckBell4) January 14, 2022\nAreas west of the Blue Ridge, West Virginia and Northern Maryland will get the most snow, with 8 to 12 inches possible.\nBell said that there are still many areas of uncertainty in this forecast, but confidence continues to increase on the timing and the impact.\nCommuters working on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day should plan for the snow to refreeze overnight Sunday, which could make for dangerous driving conditions Monday morning.\n- Listen to WTOP online and on the radio at 103.5 FM or 107.7 FM.\n- Current traffic conditions\n- Weather forecast\n- Closings and Delays\n- Sign up for WTOP alerts\nPreparing roads for another round of snow\nIn the effort to avoid another travel nightmare as experienced a week ago by some drivers stuck on I-95 for more than 24 hours, D.C., Maryland and Virginia have began taking action before the snow arrives.\nRoad crews sprayed a salt brine solution on both sides of I-95 Thursday between Joplin Road in Prince William County to Caroline County. According to the Virginia Department of Transportation, the solution will prevent ice from bonding into the pavement during the storm, reducing the risk of hazardous road conditions while helping crews with snow and ice removal.\nCrews continued to apply pretreatment on as many roads as possible on Friday, including in Fredericksburg, the Northern Neck and Middle Peninsula. VDOT said drivers may see daytime delays on various routes during the “slow-moving operation.”\n“The brine trucks travel at slower speeds to spray the salt brine solution onto the road with precision and to ensure an adequate amount is absorbed in the pavement,” VDOT said.\nOnce 2 or more inches of snow have accumulated, Virginia’s online snowplow tracker is activated, and users can monitor the status of roads, as well as where snow plows are working. Maryland has a similar interactive tool online.\nD.C. started applying a salt brine to the roads Thursday night, according to Chris Rodriguez, head of the District’s Homeland Security and Emergency Management Agency. Crews finished in D.C. around 7 a.m. Friday but applied more salt treatment over the course of the day.\nRodriguez told WTOP the Department of Public Works and the Department of Transportation are going to be at full deployment for the winter storm.\n“We have up to 400 plows available both through the government and also our contract plows. So we are prepared and we can shift our operations if we need to, if the forecast changes,” Rodriguez said.\nThe Maryland Department of Transportation said crews are applying an anti-icing brine to the roadways and are encouraging drivers to avoid or delay travel during the storm, if possible.\nAreas without residual salt from the last storms were treated earlier Friday, according to Maryland State Highway spokesperson Sherry Christian.\nChristian said drivers should continue to follow the “basic guidelines.”\n“But when you’re in inclement weather, you need to take it down a notch,” Christian said. “So slow down. Remember the posted speed limits are for ideal weather conditions, which is what this storm is not.”\nChristian recommended people drive at least 10 mph below the speed limit, use caution around snow plows and clear all snow off of vehicles before driving.\nDrivers are also asked to avoid unnecessary travel, due to the possibility of dangerous weather and road conditions during and after the storm. VDOT encouraged college students to either arrive early to campus or delay their travel, as many start their spring semester this week.\nThis weekend’s #WinterWeather will impact students returning to college campuses. Those with travel plans are encouraged to monitor forecasts for the entire route & return prior to the storm or delay travel. Travel on Sunday is not advised.\n❄ Learn more: https://t.co/PtVdDF9D9s pic.twitter.com/VERrAxKkxF\n— VDOT (@VaDOT) January 13, 2022\n“The best news with this storm is the timing,” Storm Team4 meteorologist Doug Kammerer said. “We’re looking at Sunday night into very early Monday morning. And of course, [with] Monday being a holiday, a lot less people on area roads.”\nVirginia electricity company prepping for outages\nBesides slick roads, storms earlier in January also brought power outages to the D.C. area as winds, snow and freezing rain damaged power lines.\nIf the storm brings wet snow, Casey Hollins, a spokesperson for Rappahannock Electric Cooperative, said there could be similar challenges. But if the system changes and the snow is light and fluffy, it will have less of an impact on power lines.\nHollins said the company has proactively staged workers around their service territory in anticipation of Sunday’s snow. It’s all hands on deck with the cooperative readying 300 company employees, more than 100 Electric Co Ops workers and over 125 contractors and tree workers. The company website has a tool to report outages.\nDominion Energy will also have workers and contractors on standby for possible outages, according to Peggy Fox, a company spokesperson. Outages can be reported on the company’s app.\nSean Matthews, a spokesperson for PEPCO, said their crews are also prepping for snow in D.C., and Prince George’s and Montgomery counties in Maryland.\nMatthew said outages can be reported online at the company’s website or by calling 877-PEPCO-62.\n“If you do see an unsafe condition, whether it be a downed pole, or wire that’s come down, always treat that in that situation as if that wire is active and energized,” Matthews said. “Don’t touch it; stay away from it and give us a call.”\nAcross the board, power companies are monitoring the storm and ready to adjust their resources based on the forecast.\nPeople should prepare any supplies needed for alternative heat sources; Hollins reminded people to have wood for fireplaces or gas for generators.\n“The last storm created a lot of travel challenges,” Hollins said. “So if you don’t have those sources of heat to keep you safe, then we recommend thinking about where you might be able to go in advance.”\nOther reminders that Matthew gave included charging up devices and checking emergency kits for water bottles, non-perishable food, battery powered radios, flashlights, first aid and medications.\nFox also said that Dominion Energy is aware of mixed messages on when power would come back after the last storm knocked down trees into roads and made it difficult to assess damage.\n“Our goal is to provide accurate data based on what we know at any given point in time,” Fox said. This time, we will wait until we have more accurate information on damages before providing an individual ETR (estimated time to restoration).”\nFRIDAY NIGHT: Fair, breezy and colder. Lows mid teens to lower 20s, with wind chills 5 to 15.\nSATURDAY: Becoming cloudy. Windy and colder. Highs upper 20s to mid 30s.\nSUNDAY: Snow developing around noon. Several inches of snow possible by sunset. Highs in the low to mid-30s.\nSUNDAY NIGHT: Snow changing to ice and then rain. Precipitation staying mostly snow near the Blue Ridge. Steady or rising temperatures.\nWTOP’s Rick Massimo, Jose Umana, Andrew Alsbrooks, Abigail Constantino and Alejandro Alvarez contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A June 2016 heat wave that struck Southern California, for example, broke several records by single digits. The one double-digit margin was set in El Cajon, where temperatures for that calendar day toppled the previous record by 10 degrees.\nEven during a 2015 heat wave in the region with back-to-back days of temperatures surpassing 100 degrees, the heat broke records by small margins.\nOther heat records set Wednesday include Oxnard, where 102-degree temperatures beat out the old record by 8 degrees, and Los Angeles International Airport, where 99-degree heat toppled the 1983 record of 92.\nMore heat records were set at Santa Maria Public Airport, Santa Barbara Municipal Airport, Long Beach Airport and downtown Los Angeles.\nThe ongoing heat sparked several brush fires on Tuesday, requiring closures on three freeways.

Only 9% of the country denies that climate change is happening, but 28% of Americans believe that it is not due to human activity. Of this 28% only 12% say that the recent dramatic increases in global temperature are unprecedented - 80% say that these changes in temperature are normal.\nRepublicans are widely skeptical of human-caused climate change, with 41% saying that it is happening but not because of humans and 13% denying that the climate is even changing. There is a significant gap between older and younger Republicans on this issue, however. Republicans under the age of 45 (41%) tend to accept the scientific consensus that climate change is due to humans, something only 23% of Republicans aged 45 or older accept.\nThe youngest Americans overwhelmingly accept that climate change is due to human activity, with 72% of under-30s saying that climate change is human caused. In fact only among over-65s is the proportion accepting human caused climate change less than a majority.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Temperatures could reach up to 36 degrees and there is a chance of some storms in the eastern parts of the country on Saturday afternoon. In anticipation of the heat and the start of the Tour, water company Vitens will be pumping a record amount of 300 million litres of water per day to Utrecht this weekend, NOS reports. The company will incrementally increase the pressure in the pipes, to prevent them from bursting. The reservoirs will also be kept fuller in order to meet the additional demand. Vitens is not expecting any problems arising from the additional water demands, but the water pressure in the parts around the city may be slightly lower due to the high demand. The water company does warn that more iron particles from the water may whirl upwards due to the extra water flow, creating so-called brown water. The water is still drinkable - iron particles occur naturally in the water and is not a danger to health - but the company recommends that infants and the elderly do not drink this water. The KNMI has issued a code yellow weather warning for extreme heat for the whole of the Netherlands. This warning will remain in effect for 48 hours. The national heat plan is also currently in effect.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

However, the original statement that Beijing is choosing to do so because pollution is blocking out the sun is pure conjecture.\nThe rumor started in the U.K.'s Daily Mail and went viral from there, including in an article on weather.com. Mashable was the first website to figure out the inaccuracy. In truth, the video of the sunrise runs every day on Tiananmen Square's big screen. It's part of an ad for tourism in China's Shandong province.\nThe erroneous report started when a reporter, based in New York, wrote a misleading caption underneath the sunrise-on-video photo. That erroneous caption and photo was then used in media outlets across the globe:\n(INCORRECT CAPTION UNDERNEATH DAILY MAIL PHOTO) \"The smog has become so thick in Beijing that the city's natural light-starved masses have begun flocking to huge digital commercial television screens across the city to observe virtual sunrises. The futuristic screens installed in the Chinese capital usually advertise tourist destinations, but as the season's first wave of extremely dangerous smog hit residents donned air masks and left their homes to watch the only place where the sun would hail over the horizon that morning.\"\nChina's dangerous smog is well documented as a health and environmental danger, with many citizens wearing masks when they step outside. The rumor about the videotaped sunrise came on the same day Beijing’s air quality registered more than two dozen times the level considered safe.\nIn an interview with the Associated Press, a traffic coordinator said it was the worst air quality he’d seen in several years.\n\"I couldn't see the tall buildings across the street this morning,\" said Zhang, who gave only his surname. \"The smog has gotten worse in the last two to three years. I often cough, and my nose is always irritated. But what can you do? I drink more water to help my body discharge the toxins.\"\n(MORE: Beijing Forecast)\nThe U.S. Embassy in Beijing monitors and tweets the air quality. On January 16, the air quality hovered between hazardous and very unhealthy all day.\nThe city's air quality is often poor, especially in winter when stagnant weather patterns combine with an increase in coal-burning to exacerbate other forms of pollution and create periods of heavy smog for days at a time. Last week was the first time this season that air quality rose to hazardous levels.\nMORE ON WEATHER.COM: Beautiful Sunrises Around the World","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The energy is carried by light waves (radiation) and by atoms, the tiny building blocks of matter. Here is a picture which shows the concepts that are important in understanding the Sun-Earth connection.\nThe light from the Sun heats the Earth's surface which makes the climate pleasant for life, in addition to making an ozone layer in the upper atmosphere to protect life from the Sun's harmful ultraviolet light. The atoms from the Sun carry energy which causes electricity to flow in the upper atmosphere. This electricity may alter the weather on the surface. The atoms can collide with spacecraft and are a potential hazard for astronauts. When these atoms hit the upper atmosphere they cause a spectacular light show you can see from the ground called the aurora.\nThe SunThe Sun is the closest star to Earth and provides us with the energy necessary for life. Here is a picture of the Sun's lower atmosphere.\nYou can see from the picture the Sun is quite an active object, much like an erupting volcano. The loops of matter thrown from the surface, as seen in the picture, are the source for the atoms which eventually strike Earth.\nThe visible part of the Sun which we see from Earth is called the photosphere. The photosphere is where the light from the Sun comes from. Although to us the Sun's surface appears smooth, it is actually grainy as seen in the following picture of the photosphere. The white places are called sunspots.\nIn the following movie, you can see the sunspots move as the Sun rotates. The Sun's photosphere is shown over an 8 month period, during which the Sun rotates about 8 times. To see the movie click here (MPEG movie; 1 Mb).\nThe corona, the top layer of the Sun's atmosphere, normally can't be seen from Earth. The corona is where atoms leave the Sun for Earth. This stream of atoms is called the solar wind. The corona can be seen from Earth when the photosphere is blocked during a solar eclipse. Here is a picture of the corona during an eclipse.\nThe solar wind blowing from the corona can be seen in the following movie. Please click here to see a MPEG movie of the the corona (1.1 Mb).\nHow long does it take for the light and atoms from the Sun to reach Earth? It turns out that nothing moves faster than light, which moves so fast it can go around the Earth 8 times in only a second! The distance from the Sun to the Earth is 150,000,000 km. All light waves travel at a speed of 300,000 km/s. So, the time for light to reach Earth from the Sun is\ntime = distance divided by speed = 8 and 1/2 minutesIf the Sun was to turn itself off right now we wouldn't know about it for another 8 and 1/2 minutes!\nAtoms go about the same distance to Earth as light, but move much slower, with a speed of 400 km/s. If this seems slow remember that the Space Shuttle goes around Earth at 8 km/s and a race car goes about 100 times slower than the Shuttle! We can figure out how long it takes for the atoms to reach Earth in the same way as for light:\ntime = distance divided by speed = 4 and 1/4 daysLight from the Sun moves in a straight line to Earth, but the solar wind atoms move in a curved path due to the Sun's rotation. Imagine picking up a garden hose with the water running and swinging it around your head.\nI said imagine. Ask your parents before you try this!The water would not move in a straight line but in a curved (spiral) path. A picture of the spiral motion can be seen by clicking here.\nThe Sun's Radiation and EarthThe following picture shows the three processes which move energy in the atmosphere.\nFigure from The Atmosphere by Lutgens and Tarbuck.\nThe fire heats the cooking surface by radiation. In the same manner, radiation from the Sun heats the surface of the Earth. The frying pan heats up due to conduction. The atoms that make up the frying pan absorb the light energy and start to vibrate. By hitting into each other they move the energy throughout the whole pan. Some materials are better at conducting heat than others; that is why cooking pans are made of metal and not wood.\nA third type of energy transfer is shown in the picture. Notice the pot of boiling water. Have you ever watched water boil? As the water gets hotter, bubbles start to rise from the bottom of the pot. As the water begins to boil, the surface bubbles get more numerous and rolls form. This process is called convection.\nEarth's surface receives the radiation from the Sun and heats up. The heat is transferred to the air by conduction between the surface and the first few centimetres of air. Convection brings the heat up from the surface into the lower atmosphere. You have seen convection occur over your heads, but probably didn't realize it. Can you guess what common feature in the sky is associated with convection? Click here to find out!\nPuffy, fair-weather clouds (called cumulus clouds) occur in regions of rising air, while blue sky is in regions of falling air. This situation is just like the bubbles in a pot of boiling water, where the rising bubbles are like the clouds.\nThe Solar Wind and EarthWe know there is electricity in thunderclouds (lightning) which can damage objects on the surface. The Space Shuttle is launched from Florida, where thunderstorms are common. The lightning can harm the electronic devices on the Shuttle.\nThere is also electricity in the region of the atmosphere where the Shuttle flies, 300 km above the surface. This electricity is generated by the solar wind. The solar wind atoms can also smash into the atmosphere, causing the air to glow in different colours. This glow is called the aurora.\nThe aurora borealis (Northern Lights) and the aurora australis (Southern Lights), are usually green, but occasionally pink or red is visible. Auroras occur around both the North and South poles. Here is a picture of the aurora taken from space.\nIn the picture, Earth is the large dark ball, while the aurora is the bright ring of light. The aurora grows bigger and smaller like a jellyfish over just a few minutes, with the brightness of the light rising and falling. You can see aurora from London a few times a year, but the aurora is visible almost every clear night a bit farther north. Fort Churchill, Manitoba is an excellent location to see the aurora and was the site of many rocket launches to study the aurora.\nThe motion of the aurora is spectacular. You can get an idea of these motions from the following video (courtesy of the Northern Lights Planetarium in Tromso, Norway). Click here to play a Quicktime movie of the the aurora (1.2 Mb).\nThank you for reading this page. May I suggest you have a look at the first figure one more time to review the concepts of the Sun-Earth Connection. Questions or comments about this page?

We're not even in the ballpark the next couple of days as warm high pressure remains in control, but that changes beginning Sunday. Once again Friday is seasonably warm with only a stray PM thundershower mention. A front approaches from the west Saturday leading to scattered late afternoon and evening thundershowers (remaining warm beforehand). The front stalls across the region Sunday and Monday generating ample cloud cover, showers, and finally cooler temperatures.\nHi: 78 Lo: 61\nPartly cloudy; Light South wind\nHi: 79 Lo: 60\nPartly sunny; Pleasant; A stray afternoon shower possible; Light South wind\nHi: 78 Lo: 60\nIncreasing clouds; Scattered afternoon & evening t-showers; Light SW wind\nHi: 71 Lo: 57\nMostly cloudy; Scattered light showers (maybe a t-shower)\nHi: 69 Lo: 57\nCloudy; Cooler; Spotty light rain\nTuesday - Generally cloudy; Scattered light showers; High in the lower 70s; Low in the upper 50s\nWednesday - Partly sunny; Scattered afternoon and nighttime showers & t-showers; High in the lower 70s; Low in the upper 50s\nDamage from Florence in SE NC is tremendous.

For several years, I have relied on Charity Navigator to research worthy charities to help in situations like this. Please join me in donating to relief efforts in the wake of Hurricane Florence.\nThe weather story through the end of the work week is rather straightforward- warm with stray PM thundershowers.\nHere's the setup beginning this weekend:\nA front crosses the nation's midsection Friday and Saturday, stalling over the southern Appalachians Sunday and Monday. The stalled front is reinforced Monday as high pressure briefly wedges down the mountains. Tuesday, the front retreats northward only to be followed by a stronger, yet more progressive frontal passage late Wednesday or Thursday.\nThe sensible results:\nScattered thundershowers develop ahead of the front Saturday afternoon and evening. However, it remains on the warm-side Saturday until then. Sunday is generally cloudy with scattered light showers and is noticeably cooler. Under the full wedge influence, Monday is overcast, another notch cooler, and showery. Showers remain in play Tuesday though rainfall is much more intermittent as the front lifts north.\nFirst, all data and forecasts on RaysWeather.Com are the intellectual property of RaysWeather.com, Inc.

The same has been sent to the law ministry for publication.\nIn recent years, high levels of air pollution have emerged as Nepal's most visible component of environmental degradation. It is estimated that air pollution costs the country about US $4 million per year in medical costs for Kathmandu residents. The Kathmandu Valley's bowl-like topography and low wind speeds during winter create poor dispersion conditions. These factors expose the area to severe air pollution. A Nepalese daily has reported that the current level of particulate matter (PM10) in the Putalisadak locality is as high as 385 microgrammes per cubic metre. Significantly, this is three times the air quality norms the government has now set for PM10.\nnaaqs sets the permissible limit for six pollutants -- PM10, sulphur dioxide, nitrogen dioxide, carbon monoxide, lead and benzene. The norms have been fixed on the basis of standards stipulated by the World Health Organisation, India and the US. The Nepal government has set a three-year deadline within which it aims to meet the naaqs levels for all air pollutants. However, environmental groups have termed the programme too ambitious -- particularly because no action plan has been chalked out yet.\nWe are a voice to you; you have been a support to us.

The bus had picked up passengers in Huntsville, heading for Tunica.\nCole said the agency is sharing information throughout the week to let people know what they need to do now to prepare for winter weather. Each day this week, the agency is sharing the information through its Facebook page and Twitter account (@GECEMA) using the hashtags #wintersafety and #winterprep.\nCole said some of the steps urged for winter weather are the same that as those recommended for severe weather, such as assembling emergency supply kits for your home and automobile, and having a way to receive emergency warnings from NIXLE or the National Weather Service.\nOthers deal directly with the problems that winter weather can bring — like having an emergency heat source, and cutting away tree branches that could become coated with ice and drop on your house.\nCheck smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors, Cole urged. Many house fires happen during winter weather, she said; people should be careful using space heaters — leaving 3 feet around any heater free of any inflammable material, and being sure that heaters will turn off if they tip over.\nPeople also should prepare for their pets during winter weather, ensuring they have proper shelter, food and water.\nAnd people need to take care of themselves, too.\n“You may think you’ll just be out of the car for a minute going in and out,” Cole said, “but something unexpected can happen” — something such as car trouble, that could leave you out in the elements longer than you’ve prepared for.\n“It’s easy to dress in layers,” she said, and remove the layers that aren’t needed.\nCole said people should winterize vehicles to make sure they are in good working order so that they don’t become stranded.\n“Everyone remembers the ‘snowpocalypse’ of 2014,” she said, when a predicted “dusting” of snow instead brought inches of snow and quickly dropping temperatures that left many people stranded on impassable roadways.\n“It’s better to over-prepare,” Cole said — to have blankets in your vehicle as part of your emergency kit, to have food, water and other supplies in case you are stranded in cold weather.\nWhile forecasts may have failed people in January 2014, Cole said they still need to follow forecasts closely whenever winter weather enters the discussion.\n“Stay up to date with local meteorologists, or with the National Weather Service online at weather.gov,” she said. The weather service will have information from the latest weather models — models that can change frequently.\nCole said it’s important to remember when a forecast shows bands of winter weather across the state, those separating lines account for several miles. There’s no pinpointing exactly where a dusting of snow will end and a dangerous layer of ice will begin.\nLong-term forecasts are less reliable, she said. There are some climate reports that purport to lay out what weather can be expected well in advance, but she’s dubious of those.\n“Outside seven days, there’s not much skill in the forecasting,” Cole said.\nWednesday’s post on the GECEMA Facebook page details what preparing an emergency supply kit for a vehicle or for home — from having a full tank of gas to insulating pipes and leaving faucets dripping to prevent pipes freezing and bursting.\nAdditional posts this week will offer details about safe heating and what weather terms used by the National Weather Service and meteorologists mean.\nCole encouraged everyone to take advantage of the information the GECEMA is making available.\nThe following links provide additional information about winter weather preparedness.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Later reports indicated that at least six people died in the rubble.\nMore than 30 people were taken to area hospitals, according to Illinois State Police Major Ryan Starrick, ABC News reports.\nWhat caused the accident?\n“The cause of the crashes is due to excessive winds blowing dirt from agricultural fields across the highway, leading to zero visibility,” Maj.

Conversely, the following composite image is of data taken on the nights of Sept. 27 and 28 -- nearly a week after the storm hit -- by the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite, a scanning radiometer that collects visible and infrared imagery of land, atmosphere, cryosphere and oceans, according to NASA's website.\nRead more of this story at Slashdot.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

And the storm is large: tropical storm conditions extend more than 200 miles from the storm's center, meaning Isaac could cause significant damage even in places where it does not pass directly overhead.\nIsaac has brought havoc to the Caribbean already, killing seven people in Haiti and downing trees and power lines in Cuba. And it had officials worried enough in Tampa that they shuffled around some plans for the Republican National Convention.\nHowever, Isaac had yet to create a panic in South Florida, and it wasn't expected to become a hurricane by the time it passed over the Florida Keys. In Miami Shores, some residents said they hadn't even put up storm shutters. Edwin Reeder, 65, stopped by a gas station to pick up some drinks and snacks. He didn't bother topping off his car's half-full fuel tank.\nReeder said he hadn't put up storm shutters, instead just clearing his gutters so all the water could drain. And while he didn't stock up on canned goods for himself, he did buy some extra cat and dog food for his pets.\n\"This isn't a storm,\" he said. \"It's a rain storm.\"\nOn Key West, locals followed time-worn storm preparedness rituals while awaiting the storm after Isaac swamped the Caribbean and shuffled plans for the Republican National Convention. Hundreds of flights were canceled Sunday as the storm bore down.\nA steady line of cars moved north Saturday along the Overseas Highway, the only road linking the Florida Keys. Residents boarded up windows, laid down sandbags and shuttered businesses ahead of the approaching storm. Even Duval Street, Key West's storied main drag, was subdued for a weekend, though not enough to stop music from playing or drinks from being poured.\n\"We'll just catch every place that's open,\" said Ted Lamarche, a 48-year-old pizzeria owner visiting Key West to celebrate his anniversary with his wife, Deanna. They walked along on Duval Street, where a smattering of people still wandered even as many storefronts were boarded up and tourists sported ponchos and yellow slickers.\n\"Category None!\" one man shouted in a show of optimism.\nThe Keys were bracing storm surge of up to 4 feet, strong winds and the possibility of tornadoes. The island chain's two airports closed Saturday night, and volunteers and some residents began filing into shelters.\n\"This is a huge inconvenience,\" said Dale Shelton, a 57-year-old retiree in Key West who was staying in a shelter.\nIsaac has already left a trail of suffering across the Caribbean.\nAt least seven people were reported dead in Haiti, including a 10-year-old girl who had a wall fall on her, according to the country's Civil Protection Office. The government also reported \"considerable damage\" to agriculture and homes. Nearly 8,000 people were evacuated from their houses or earthquake shelters and more than 4,000 were taken to temporary shelters.\nThe Grise River in Haiti overflowed north of Port-au-Prince, sending chocolate-brown water spilling through the sprawling shantytown of Cite Soleil, where many people grabbed what possessions they could and carried them on their heads, wading through waist-deep water.\nAfter Isaac passes the Keys, it will move over the warm, open waters of the Gulf of Mexico and is expected to gain significant strength. It could ultimately make landfall on the northern Gulf Coast late Tuesday or early Wednesday. However, forecasters have stressed that the storm's exact path remains highly uncertain.\n\"Definitely the northern Gulf Coast should be preparing for a hurricane right now,\" Jessica Schauer, a meteorologist with the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami, told The Associated Press in a phone interview.\nIsaac isn't likely to hit Tampa head-on, but it could still lash the city with rain and strong winds just as the convention ramps up. A tropical storm warning is in effect for parts of Florida's west coast, including Tampa Bay.\nConvention officials said they would meet briefly on Monday, then immediately recess until Tuesday afternoon, when the storm is expected to have passed. Florida Gov. Rick Scott, a Republican, declared a state of emergency and canceled his plans to attend convention events on Sunday and Monday.\nAs of 8 a.m. EDT, the storm was centered about 50 miles (80 kilometers) southeast of Key West, according to the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami. Isaac had top sustained winds of 60 mph (97 kph).\nIt was moving to the west-northwest toward the Keys at 18 mph (29 kph).\nAssociated Press writers Suzette Laboy in Miami Shores; Bill Barrow in Tampa; Trenton Daniel and Evens Sanon in Port-au-Prince, Haiti; Peter Orsi and Anne-Marie Garcia in Havana; Fernando Gonzalez in Baracoa, Cuba; and Ezequiel Abiu Lopez in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The city borders the city of North Bend, and together they are often referred to as one entity called Bay Area. According to the 2020 census, the population of Coos Bay was 16,326.\nIn terms of weather, Coos Bay experiences cool autumn and mild winter. But the question still stands, does it snow in Coos Bay, Oregon?\nDoes It Snow In Coos Bay, Oregon?\nThe answer is Yes! Although it is not an overly common occurrence, it has been known to snow in Coos Bay, Oregon, on occasion. In fact, Coos Bay gets only about 0.2 inches of Snowfall annually.\nThere hasn’t been any widespread snow accumulation in recent years, but there have been a few flurries and isolated snow showers.\nThe best chance for seeing snow in Coos Bay would be during the winter months, usually from December to February. However, even then, the chances are relatively low.\nSo if you’re hoping to see a white Christmas in Coos Bay, or looking for a winter wonderland, Coos Bay, Oregon, is not the place for you. In fact, the town is so far south that it rarely sees any snow at all.\nThe Weather In Coos Bay\nCoos Bay is a city in Oregon. The climate there is mild, and the weather is generally good all year round. However, there are four distinct seasons: winter, spring, summer, and fall.\nThe winters in Coos Bay are cool and wet, with occasional snowfall. The average temperature in December and January is around 39 degrees Fahrenheit (4 degrees Celsius).\nThe springs in Coos Bay are very nice, with temperatures ranging from 45 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit (7 to 15 degrees Celsius). The summers are warm and dry, with temperatures usually reaching into the high 60s or low 70s (18 to 21 degrees Celsius).\nFinally, the fall season brings cooler temperatures and beautiful foliage. The average temperature in October and November is between 50 and 65 degrees Fahrenheit (10 to 18 degrees Celsius).\nThe Best Time To Visit Coos Bay\nCoos Bay is a beautiful Oregon coastal town that experiences a moderate climate all year round. The summers are warm and dry, while the winters are cool and rainy. However, the town experiences very little snowfall each year.\nSo if you’re looking to avoid the cold and enjoy some moderate weather, the best time to visit Coos Bay is from June to August. These are the best months to visit Coos Bay because of the pleasant weather conditions.\nThe Future Of Snow In Coos Bay, Oregon\nAs climate change progresses, the future of snow in Coos Bay, Oregon, is uncertain. Warmer temperatures have already led to less snowfall in recent years, and this trend is expected to continue. This could have major impacts on the local economy, which is reliant on winter tourism.\nIt is still too early to say exactly how much snow Coos Bay will receive in the future, but it is clear that the amount will continue to decline. This could mean shorter ski seasons and fewer opportunities for winter recreation. It may also lead to less water being available in the summer months, as melting snow contributes to the local water supply.\nThe community will need to adapt to these changes in order to maintain its economic viability. The ski resort may need to invest in artificial snow-making capabilities, and water conservation measures may need to be put in place.\nHowever, it is still unclear what the future of snow in Coos Bay, Oregon, will be.\nIn conclusion, Does it snow in Coos Bay, Oregon? This depends on various factors.\nAs of now, Snowfall is rare in Coos Bay, Oregon, and amounts to 0.2 inches annually compared to an average snowfall in the USA is 28 inches.\nThe most important factor for snowfall is elevation; the higher the elevation, the more likely it is to snow. Other important factors include air temperature, wind speed, and humidity.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The 6-month outlook is a curiosity - just tell me it's going to rain, Paul.\nT-storms may brush much of Minnesota Monday as overheated air pushes north, but it won't be the sustained soaking we need.

Someone told me that they were out in a boat and weren't worried about a tornado warning because they'd be safe on water. I'm not sure that's a good idea! Thank you!\"\nNancy Hartman, Burnsville\nNancy - your gut is correct. A lake, river (or valley) won't deter a tornado, especially a large tornado. A tornado is a process, not an object; the larger dynamics and wind inflow into a severe thunderstorm drive the intensification or weakening of a funnel, not the surface the vortex passes over. I've seen numerous instances of a tornado passing over water, transitioning to a waterspout, then back to tornado as it passes over land again. Another important point: severe thunderstorms capable of tornadoes usually produce intense lightning; another reason you don't want to be on a lake (or beach). Thanks for a great question/observation.\nKae- A good place to start is the Twin Cities Chapter of the American Meteorological Society, which has frequent meetings with interesting topics/guest speakers and a chance to network with local weather enthusiasts and meteorologists.

Last week, several visitors were stranded there because of heavy rains.\nPakistan this year has witnessed a delay in winter rains, which started in February instead of November. Monsoons as well as winter rains cause damage in Pakistan every year.\nIn 2022, unprecedented rainfall and flooding devastated many parts of Pakistan, killing more than 1,800 people, affecting around 33 million and displacing nearly eight million people. The disaster also caused billions of dollars in damage.\n(Except for the headline, this story has not been edited by NDTV staff and is published from a syndicated feed.)","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

I've been talking about this pattern flip for over week now, and now it's coming to fruition.....sometime around the beginning of March.

Farther north east over Greenland, blocking will set up and force everything to take a more southerly track. The NAO and AO forecast confirming by tanking negative. The jet stream, which is basically the highway for low pressure systems to follow, will buckle south and allow low and low to move off the coast from georgia to the Carolinas and out to sea. With a track that far south and moving straight offshore, we will see some good punches of groundswell for just about the whole month of March. The jet will reload low after low in quick succession so even if the wind is raging onshore one day, it'll quickly change the next as the next low approaches. We are in for a wild ride! Winter is not over yet!\nTeleconnections....That's what we call things like the NAO and AO. (North Atlantic Oscillation and arctic oscillation) Without getting too in depth, (and to spare you a geeky science read)...I'll put it in it's most basic terms..... if the NAO and the AO are negative, the jet stream buckles south, we get more cold fronts, and big low pressure systems move offshore(creating swell) instead of riding up the coast.\nSo yes, we want it to be negative. Remember that really cold winter we had in 2010? A strong negative NAO and AO stuck around most of the winter causing all the cold air to spill down into Florida. (and the swells were nonstop)\nHere's a look at the AO and NAO forecasts, notice around the start of March is when they tank:\nEarly indications are it may stick around for the whole month before flipping back for April, or maybe longer.

Scientists have been arguing for years as to whether storm electricity helps spawn tornados and whether electrical effects are important attributes of the funnels. The first eyewitness account is descriptive of obvious electrical activity inside a funnel. The second bit of testimony is even more interesting since it describes long vertical light columns (like \"neon tubes) associated with tornado funnels. The tubes tie in with occasional observations of aurora-like columns above distant thunderstorms.\nA farmer living near Greensburg, Kansas on 22 June 1928 had the rare \"privilege\" of looking right up into a tornado funnel while standing at the entrance of his cyclone cellar.\n\"As I paused to look I saw that the lower end, which had been sweeping the ground, was beginning to rise. I knew what that meant, so I kept my position. I knew that I was comparatively safe and I knew that if the tornado again dipped I could drop down and close the door before any harm could be done.\n\"At last the great shaggy end of the funnel hung directly overhead. Everything was as still as death. There was a strong gassy odor and it seemed that I could not breathe. There was a screaming, hissing sound coming directly from the end of the funnel.\n\"I looked up and to my astonishment I saw right up into the heart of the tornado!\n\"There was a circular opening in the center of the funnel, about 50 or 100 feet in diameter, and extending straight upward for a distance of at least ½ mile, as best I could judge under the circumstances. The walls of this opening were of rotating clouds and the whole was made brilliantly visible by constant flashes of lightning which zigzagged from side to side.\" (Monthly Weather Review, 58: 205, 1930)\nThe 25 May 1955 tornado at Blackwell, Oklahoma, was a particularly strong tornado. Lee Hunter saw the light-column effect vividly.\n\"The funnel from the cloud to the ground was lit up. It was a steady, deep blue light - very bright. It had an orange color fire in the centre from the cloud to the ground. As it came along my field, it took a swath about 100 yards wide. As it swung from left to right, it looked like a giant neon tube in the air or a Bagman at a railroad crossing. As it swung along the ground level, the orange fire or electricity would gush out from the bottom of the funnel, and the updraft would take it up in the air causing a terrific light - and it was gone!\" (Journal of Meteorology, 14:284, 1957)\nSource: Handbook of Unusual Phenomena: Eyewitness Accounts of Nature's Greatest Mysteries by William R Corliss\nPlains Tornadoes Rich in Research Data\nby Kelly Kurt\nNorman, Oklahoma - The vision of scientists taming deadly storms isn't anything more than a pipe dream, researchers say. They don't even know yet how giant tornadoes are born. But a University of Oklahoma researcher who trailed the funnels that killed 41 people last week predicts more may be learned from that May 3 evening than a decade of storm chasing.\n\"We're going to make quantum leaps, I think - I hope,\" professor Howie Bluestein said Tuesday.\nPresident Clinton, viewing the ruins Saturday of neighbourhoods swept away in the storms, suggested seeing if the \"frontiers of science can widen to the point where we can dilute the strength of the storm.\" He said, \"We'll put Oklahoma at the centre of that.\"\nBut it's unlikely the strength of storms is something that can - or should - be tamed, said Harold Brooks, research meteorologist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Severe Storms Laboratory in Norman. Tornadoes spin from thunderstorms that hold the energy of \"an atomic bomb explosion per second,\" he said. \"If we take that option away from the thunderstorm, it may respond in some way that is even less friendly than a tornado.\" Even if the technology existed, Brooks doubts taxpayers would support the cost of maintaining the equipment, such as a fleet of aircraft, to attack and dilute storms.\nThe tornado that hit the Oklahoma City suburbs last week reached wind speeds of 318 miles an hour, according to readings taken by one of the University of Oklahoma's Doppler on Wheels radar trucks. It was rated F-5 on the Fujita scale, the highest ranking for twisters.\nTwo teams led by Joshua Wurman, an assistant professor in the meteorology department and head of Oklahoma University's storm-tracking unit, intercepted the storm system that afternoon west of Lawton and trailed its path past Oklahoma City. Later that night, the team followed a mile-wide tornado that ploughed through the town of Mulhall. \"We had one radar watch a powerful tornado be born,\" Wurman said. \"That's another piece of the puzzle.\"\nDown the hall from Wurman's office, Bluestein pointed to an image recorded by another Doppler radar on the truck his team drove near the storm. Tiny dots appear in the centre of a mass of swirling red and blue that show varying wind speeds. \"These were small tornadoes within the large cone,\" he said. The radar image might help explain phenomenon such as a mobile home in Bridge Creek that was sucked away by a tornado while lawn chairs sat undisturbed nearby.\nBluestein, who has been tracking tornadoes across the prairie since 1977, said it could take months or even years to interpret all the data collected that evening. \"I don't think we're ever going to be able to modify tornadoes,\" he said. \"We still need to understand how tornadoes form.\" If researchers can do that, Brook said, they might be better able to predict intensity and tailor storm warnings accordingly.\n\"My house takes an F-1 tornado. In an F-3 tornado, our interior hallway is almost certainly survivable, although we may lose a good part of the house,\" Brooks said. \"In an F-5 tornado, we're dead if we're there.\"\nSource: NansoTimes 12 May 1999 © Nando Media and Associated Press\nArmoured Tornado Camera Destroyed - by a Tornado\nA camera specially designed to take pictures of the inside of a tornado has been destroyed - by a tornado. National Geographic constructed the armoured device and placed it in the path of a storm near Manchester, South Dakota. But it was blown away within seconds when the tornado hit.

Find out more about our data sources.\nMetric (°C / mm) | Imperial (°F / inches)\nAntalya Coast weather overview\nThe Antalya Coast, also known as the Turkish Mediterranean Coast, is the best known and largest holiday resort area in Turkey.\nMillions of people visit this region each year, which makes Antalya one of the top ten busiest tourist destinations in the world.\nThis part of the eastern Mediterranean comes under the influence of weather systems over the Middle East which accounts for the extended summer season. Summer runs from May to October reaching its peak in July and August which are the warmest months of the year.\nBy May maximum daytime temperatures top 25°C, the sea reaches 20°C and there are 10 hours of sunshine on average each day.\nSimilarly at the end of the summer season in October daytime temperatures can easily hit 30°C, nearly 70% of daylight hours are sunny - that's 8 hours a day on average - and sea temperatures are arguably still quite comfortable at 24°C.\nDuring this time there may not be a cloud in the sky for days on end, and in the afternoon air temperatures in the shade can easily reach the low forties Celsius; the average maximum is 34°C.\nHeat and Humidity during the day is generally high or very high, which some people may find uncomfortable. Luckily onshore breezes during the afternoon can alleviate some of this and temperatures always fall after sunset.\nDuring the day the sea is never far away for a cooling dip in waters which in August can reach 27°C.\nThe Antalya Coast has some of the longest beaches in Turkey though sadly they are not all covered by soft white sand. Side and Alanya to the east probably have the best sand and the beaches are shallow and safe, while Cirali to the south is wilder and less developed.\nThe majority of this rain falls on the Taurus Mountains behind the coast and most hours during the day are still sunny, though winter temperatures, especially at night, usually fall into single figures (°C).\nWhile the mountains may increase the chances of a wet day, they also help to prevent very cold air that reaches northern Turkey in winter from affecting temperatures on the coast.\nTo the north of the mountains it can be very cold in winter while along Antalya's coast daytime temperatures average 15°C even in the coldest months.\nThe wind direction in winter is primarily from the north or northwest, however, low-pressure systems travelling eastwards along the Mediterranean occasionally veer north towards the Antalya Coast bringing wet and sometimes stormy conditions from the south, with high seas.\nIf you visit the Antalya Coast in winter there is usually snow on the Taurus Mountains behind the coast. There are even two little ski resorts, Saklikent and Davras, within easy reach, each with just one or two small lifts, and in good years you can ski as late as April.\nWhether you are after some baking hot summer sunshine beside the turquoise waters of the Turkish Mediterranean Coast, a quieter more active outdoor holiday in spring or autumn, or a little winter sunshine, Antalya's weather has something to offer everyone.\nWhat to pack for Antalya Coast weather\nThe rest of the year is quite cool by comparison and it can be wet from the middle of November to the beginning of March when a heavier extra layer and some waterproofs are recommended, especially for travelling into the mountains where the weather can be unpredictable.\nWhich is the hottest month in the Antalya Coast?\nThe hottest time of year in Antalya, Antalya Coast is normally July. Expect maximum daytime temperatures to reach 34°C with very high heat and humidity.\nWhich month has the most rain in the Antalya Coast?\nIn terms of rainfall, December is usually the wettest month in Antalya, Antalya Coast with 246mm on average. There are normally 13 days in December with some rain.\nWhen is it sunniest in the Antalya Coast?\nThe sunniest time of year in Antalya, Antalya Coast is normally July with bright sunshine on average for 91% of daylight hours; that's 13 hours of sunshine per day.\nWhen is the sea warmest in the Antalya Coast?\nThe sea is usually at its warmest in Antalya, Antalya Coast in August when the water temperature reaches 29°C.\nAntalya Coast travel features\nDo you want to learn more about the Antalya Coast?

However, a record-breaking cold snap puts growers on alert and special means must be taken to protect plants and trees on the rare nights when the temperature has dipped to below freezing—and has gone as low as 25 degrees.\nAverage summer temperatures are around 80 or slightly higher in the months of July, August, September and October.\nOn average the rainiest month by far is February where rainfall is approx. five inches. In July the average of 0.01 inch of rain means that when it rains, it is very rare.\nSpecial events throughout the year are generally not hampered by the weather.

Is it possible that tornadoes are more attracted to mobile homes than site-built homes?\nThough many have heard this at some point, it is merely a misconception.\n\"The perception that mobile homes are struck disproportionately is due to the fact that media is attracted to photos of serious damage and/or serious injuries,\" Senior Vice President of AccuWeather Enterprise Solutions Mike Smith said.\n\"Both are more common with mobile homes in tornadoes, especially if they are not tied down. So, people see reporters doing \"standups\" in front of mobile homes and it creates a perception that mobile homes are struck more often. \"\nIt is important, however, to consider where most mobile homes are located geographically and how susceptible that landscape is to severe weather.\nAccording to U.S. Census Bureau, many states in the infamous \"Tornado Alley,\" the area in the central and southwest United States struck most by tornadoes, have high percentages of mobile homes.\nAs of 2004, Wyoming, Kentucky, Arkansas, South Dakota and Louisiana were each within the top 15 states in terms of number of mobile homes. Because these areas are frequented by severe weather, we often hear of the excessive damage caused to mobile homes.\nHowever, while this may make it seem as though tornadoes are attracted to this type of structure, the truth is they are no more likely to be hit than a site-built home in the same location.\nThe difference is their vulnerability. Mobile homes are less stable structurally and are more likely to be destroyed when hit.\nBecause the structures are built at a factory and transported to their locations, they are often lighter in weight than site-built homes and, therefore, less secure.\nIf a mobile home is not tied down, it can tip with winds as low as 55 miles per hour, Smith said.\nAccording to the National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL), almost half of all tornado fatalities in the U.S. occur in mobile homes.\nShould you find yourself caught in tornado conditions, the best place to take shelter is in the lowest interior room of a house or building.\nResidents of mobile homes should have weather radios and be prepared to evacuate and find shelter immediately upon receiving a tornado warning or a warning of winds greater than 60 miles per hour, Smith said.\nDeadly Severe Weather Facts & Safety Tips:\nAn intense band of heavy rainfall will continue across South Carolina and far southeastern North Carolina into Monday, worsening the already historic flooding that is underway.\nAdditional rain is expected to exacerbate already catastrophic flooding in parts of South Carolina into Monday.\nHurricane Joaquin is barreling down on Bermuda as the weekend comes to an end, posing hazards to residents and vacationers.\nAccording to the BBC, the Brague River overflowed its banks, sending water into nearby towns and cities, including Cannes.\nCatastrophic flooding slammed Charleston, South Carolina, and other areas across the state over the weekend.\nThe 44th Annual Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta began on Saturday morning, but stormy conditions could cause trouble through Tuesday.\nIndian Creek, IL (1991)\nCars were blown off roadways by a tornado. Many homes suffered damage.\nGulf States (1995)\nHurricane Opal comes ashore with sustained winds of 125 mph just east of Pensacola. Winds gusted to 144 mph at Fort Walton Beach, FL massive damage done to Pensacola Beach - fishing pier was destroyed.

The plummeting temperatures, combined with heavy rain and melting snow, made for icy conditions on the roadways and kept Cape rescue workers busy last night with a slew of accidents.\nBy 7:15 p.m. police said the Sagamore Bridge was completely covered by ice. Unfortunately, travel on Route 6 didn't get any easier once motorists crossed the bridge.\nPolice reported accidents and cars off the road all along the Mid-Cape Highway last night beginning around 7:30 p.m.\nJust before 8 p.m. Sandwich fire officials responded to three separate accidents on Route 6 — including a rollover between Exits 3 and 4 — within minutes of one another.\nState police in Bourne had a busy night as well, responding to cars spun off the road and one car that struck a guardrail, all on Route 6.\nNo one was seriously injured in any of the crashes, police and fire officials said.\nThere were repeated reports of low-hanging trees blocking travel lanes and large puddles causing drivers to hydroplane off roadways.\nDespite snow, sleet, freezing rain and high winds, the Cape experienced relatively few power outages, compared with the 10,000 Cape customers left in the dark after Friday's storm. NStar reported fewer than 100 local homes were without power yesterday.\nMost of the outages were single homes where a tree limb had taken out a wire. But the Cape remained under a high-wind warning until early this morning, with winds expected to gust to 60 miles per hour or more last night.\nRebecca Gould, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Taunton, said the precipitation may be finished but the Cape isn't out of the woods yet.\nTemperatures are expected to be in the low 20s today, but the wind chill will make it feel like 10 degrees, Gould said.

The storm is weakening as it moves north into Bhutan.\nThousands of trees were uprooted in the gales, electricity and telephone lines brought down and houses flattened.\nMany of Kolkata's roads are flooded and its 14 million people without power.\nThe storm is the first super cyclone to form in the Bay of Bengal since 1999. Though its winds had weakened by the time it struck, it was still classified as a very severe cyclone.\nCoronavirus restrictions have been hindering emergency and relief efforts. Covid-19 and social-distancing measures made mass evacuations more difficult, with shelters unable to be used to full capacity.\nWhat's the latest on the cyclone?Amphan began hitting the Sundarbans, a mangrove area around the India-Bangladesh border home to four million people on Wednesday afternoon, before carving north and north-eastwards towards Kolkata, a historic city that was the capital of the British Raj and widely known as Calcutta.\nParts of West Bengal and Orissa (also known as Odisha) states in India, and areas in south-west Bangladesh, bore the brunt, with winds gusting up to 185km/h (115mph).\nAt least 72 people have died in India's West Bengal state, and 12 deaths have been confirmed in Bangladesh.\nWest Bengal chief minister Mamata Banerjee said the devastation in Kolkata, the state capital, was \"a bigger disaster than Covid-19\".\n\"Area after area has been ruined,\" Ms Banerjee was quoted as saying by the Press Trust of India news agency. \"I have experienced a war-like situation today.\"\nThree districts in West Bengal - South and North 24 Parganas and East Midnapore - were very badly hit.\nIn Bangladesh, there are reports of tens of thousands of homes damaged or destroyed and many villages submerged by storm surges in low-lying coastal areas like Khulna and Satkhira. The authorities evacuated nearly 2.5 million people ahead of the cyclone.\nInitial assessments of the damage are being hampered by blocked roads and flooding in all these areas.\nWhat's the latest from Bangladesh?\nOfficials in Bangladesh feared Amphan would be the deadliest storm since Cyclone Sidr which killed about 3,500 people in 2007. Most died as a result of sea water surging in.\nIndia's weather department had predicted storm surges as high as 10-16 feet (3-5 metres) from Amphan. The rising of sea levels in this way can send deadly walls of water barrelling far inland, devastating communities.\nThe total level of devastation in Bangladesh remains to be assessed but it's clear that there has been widespread destruction in areas that were in the path of the storm. In the city of Khulna, north of the Sundarbans, at least 83,000 homes were either destroyed or damaged, the Dhaka Tribune reports.\nFewer people appear to have been killed than in India but the government fears about $1.5bn worth of damages, the newspaper says.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Today through Independence Day. Southwest flow takes over, bringing warmer weather our way as we move into the holiday weekend. We will see occasional pockets of showers and thunderstorms daily. This will vary depending on the day, as we may not see some of those trends develop until within a few hours of development. For today, we are looking for showers this morning across portions of the Snake Plain and southern/eastern highlands to quickly move northeast, with another round developing late this afternoon across southern areas and spreading northeast tonight. Today's storms will likely produce light rain and some gusty winds with nothing severe anticipated. Winds look pretty gusty this afternoon and evening across the Arco Desert north and west into the central mountains and along the Montana border. At the moment, they look lighter than yesterday . precluding us from needing any type of headline. The potential for strong/severe storms exists Friday generally north of a Challis- Blackfoot- Victor line. For Independence Day, there is a limited chance of showers and storms across the central mountains, eastern and southeast highlands. It will be breezy in the afternoon in some places, but should quickly diminish at sunset for any fireworks activities taking place across eastern Idaho. Keyes\nLONG TERM. Sunday through Thursday. Upper flow over East Idaho remains southwest through the extended period with upper trough across PacNW states. Weak shortwaves eject out of the trough across the region, so there remains a general threat of isolated thunderstorms each day. Focus remains higher elevations, mainly across the Upper Snake regions. Temperatures remain near or above normal through the period with occasional afternoon gusty periods. DMH\nAVIATION. Broad swath of sprinkles continues this morning across east Idaho. Will likely see this region develop into generally isolated SHRA/TSRA this evening, potentially impacting all terminals except KSUN. Gusty outflows in excess of 30kts possible. Clearing expected at KBYI after 06Z but SHRA could continue for KPIH/KIDA and especially KDIJ. Ceilings likely to remain VFR throughout. DMH\nFIRE WEATHER. Warmer weather returns as southwest flow develops across central and eastern Idaho, with this pattern holding steady well into next week. There isn't a lot of monsoon moisture getting pulled into the pattern, so it doesn't look like daily thunderstorm chances will be widespread. With the limited moisture, at times it will make forecasting where showers and storms a bit more uncertain than we normally might see. For today, the current trends have the morning showers and storms shifting into Wyoming, with the next round developing across the south and pushing northeast tonight . impacting most fire zones except 422 and 475. Storms at the moment aren't expected to produce much rainfall, mainly gusty winds and maybe some small hail. Outside of storms today, wind gusts over 30mph are likely across the Arco Desert, central mountains and Zone 411 along the Montana border. Humidity values will begin dropping each day. Decent recovery is expected at lower elevations, with some limited recovery overnight at mid/upper slopes. Keyes\nPIH WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES.

The air quality index (AQI) between 9pm and 10 pm was recorded at 147. Just a week back on October 1, the AQI at the same time was 57.\nThe Chandigarh Pollution Control Committee (CPCC) on Wednesday released the data captured by Continuous Ambient Air Quality Monitoring Station (CAAQMS) at Panjab University\n, Sector 25, which gives real time monitoring data. The machine is close to Dhanas\n, which witnessed the burning of the tallest Ravana effigy (221-foot-high).\nTC Nautiyal, member secretary, Chandigarh Pollution Control Committee (CPCC) said there was some technical error\non the data reflected by portal and the app linked with the machine on Tuesday. He said they will take up this matter with the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB). But the data released by the department on Wednesday is accurate, he said.\nThe burning of effigies in the city on Dusshera impacted the quality of air in Chandigarh, making it worse than few days back. If the citizens of City Beautiful want to keep its air clean, they will have to take the green path. This can be done by switching over to green crackers and \"digital\" effigy burning. The way forward is by creating awareness about the harmful effects of burning cracker-filled effigies and through people's participation. It’s only then that good air will prevail.\nThe city recorded average AQI between 70 and 85 in two other locations at Kaimbwala village and Sector 39. But a scientist with the CPCC said these two locations give eight-hour average data (2 pm to 10 pm), so it can't give correct picture of pollution because of Dusshera. The CPCC is mainly relying on Sector 25 machine, which gives hourly data, he added. Track the pollution level in your city\nRecently, the UT administration decided to conduct a source appointment study to help it prepare data to quantify proportion of various elements to the overall level of air pollution. At present, the UT does not have any data to quantify proportion of various elements to the overall level of pollution.\nLast year, the administration rejected the proposal because of its high cost. In 2017, the environment department representatives held a meeting with officials of Union environment ministry in which it was discussed that IIT, Kanpur, had procured Switzerland-made monitoring devices worth Rs 5 crore each to conduct the study in four different cities. One such device was proposed to be installed in Chandigarh. Debendra Dalai, director, environment, and vice-chairman, CPCC, said as the cost was very high, the proposal was then turned down.

The sunshine and fall-like temperatures from the weekend are expected to stick around, according to the latest forecast.\n“We kind of jumped the gun this weekend,” Channel 2 Action News meteorologist Brian Monahan said. “It felt a lot like fall across North Georgia.”\nFall does not officially start until after 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, but Monday morning is off to a brisk start. Temperatures are in the high 50s and humidity is around 62%.\n“It feels great outside,” Monahan said. “The air is really dry. The morning feels really cool when the air is dry.”\nYou’ll want to reach to the back of your closet and pull out the jackets on account of the breeze.\nThere’s plenty of sunshine in the forecast. Monahan said there’s no chance of rain on Monday, and 11 out of the day’s 12 daylight hours will be sunny.\nDespite the sunshine, it won’t get very hot. The low humidity will keep temperatures in check, Monahan said. The predicted high is 72 degrees.\nIt’s an easy ride through metro Atlanta, according to the WSB 24-hour Traffic Center.

Here's how it unfolded\nEditor's Note: The following story is based on the National Weather Service damage survey report released Friday. It provided the most detailed account of the three EF1 tornadoes in Bucks County and one EF2 in Montgomery County on Wednesday night during Ida. The Mount Holly, New Jersey-based weather service has confirmed at least seven tornadoes touched down in Pennsylvania and New Jersey during the storms.\nThe tornadoes that touched down in two counties and across two states in roughly one hour during one of the Philadelphia region’s worst storms in recent memory started around evening rush hour.\nAround 5:15 p.m. Wednesday, a rotating thunderstorm over Delaware County was spotted traveling north and northeast. Within 20 minutes, it gathered enough strength to produce a deadly tornado with estimated peak winds of 130 mph.\nThe twister would travel eight miles through three municipalities, leaving a 68-year-old woman dead and at least a few others with minor injuries before lifting into the skies 14 minutes later at the Bucks County border.\nThe first sign of damage was trees along Stenton Ave in Fort Washington in the area of the Philadelphia Cricket Club around 5:35 p.m. The tornado then traveled northeast along Joshua Road through the Fort Washington State Park; the winds left a path of damaged trees and some minor shingle and siding damage to houses.\nMore about Ida:Floods, tornadoes from Ida leave death, destruction in Bucks, Montgomery counties\nOnce it crossed the Pennsylvania Turnpike, the twister turned its growing anger toward residential areas.\nAlong Montgomery, Spring, and Prospect avenues it snapped and uprooted trees and damaged roofs and siding of homes. But the area near Stuart Creek in Upper Dublin would see the worst damage.\nNearly all trees were snapped or heavily damaged in this area. Many homes lost part or nearly all their roofs. Many were damaged to the point of being uninhabitable.\nThe exterior walls in at least one home partially collapsed, damage consistent with EF2 tornadoes.\nAlong busy Route 309, the roof over the indoor pool at Upper Dublin High School as ripped off. The roof was also severely damaged at the nearby Upper Dublin Township municipal building, which houses its police department department. A 125-foot cell phone tower behind the municipal building was also toppled.\nMany homes along nearby Loch Alsh Avenue and surrounding streets were damaged. One of them was the Kenyon Drive home of Maxine Weinstein.\nWeinstein died Wednesday after a tree fell on her home. Her death was ruled as accidental traumatic asphyxia. Montgomery County Coroner’s Office declined to release additional information.\nShe was one of three storm-related deaths in Montgomery County associated with Ida, but the only one as a result of the tornado.\nMore on Ida aftermath:Wolf sends state resources to Bucks County amid tornadoes and widespread flooding from Ida\nThe Temple University Ambler campus in Upper Dublin experienced partial roof loss on several buildings as well as tree damage. Surrounding homes were also damaged before the tornado moved into the Maple Glen community.\nBut first it crossed a heavily developed area near Norristown Road at Limekiln Pike, snapping trees but causing only minor roof and siding damage to commercial buildings.\nAs it approached Horsham, traveling east of Limekiln Pike, the tornado began to lose intensity, but remained destructive. It snapped trees on Babylon Road nearing Horsham Road, snapping more large trees and damaging the roof of a veterinary hospital.\nAfter crossing Horsham Road, Ida left little to no damage in parks near the Bucks County line before it lifted at 5:49 p.m., meaning its wind circulation ceased to affect the ground temporarily.\nBut the storm was not finished.\nThe Doylestown-Buckingham tornado\nTen minutes and eight miles, away the rotating thunderstorm responsible for the EF2 tornado in Montgomery County spat out another, less powerful sibling.\nThe second tornado clocked an estimated wind speed of 100 mph. Its path would be roughly half the earlier Montgomery County storm covering two municipalities.\nIts victims would be mostly trees. Lots of them.\nThe damage began near the Neshaminy Creek between Valley and Pebble Hill roads in Doylestown Township. From there, the tornado tracked north-northeast, damaging a heavily wooded area, snapping and uprooting trees.\nThe damage was strong and suggested tornadic winds and a debris signature that was picked up on radar.\nAnother tornado:Third tornado in as many weeks hits Bucks County, damaging Bolton's Farm Market in Hilltown\nThe worst damage was near and along part of Edison-Furlong Road, where there was extensive tree damage. Several utility poles were snapped. Tree damage along nearby Swamp Road was also significant.\nAs the tornado approached Route 202 it began losing intensity with more sporadic tree damage on Mill Road. It continued to weaken before it lifted entirely near Burnt House Hill Road seven minutes after it touched down.\nA third twister was about to pop up 11 miles away.\nUpper Makefield tornado\nThe second tornado in Bucks County was embedded within a group of storms arranged in a line that formed at Stoneybrook and Eagle roads near Jericho Creek.\nFrom there it moved northeast, passing over the Jericho National Golf Club where winds at an estimated 90 mph mostly uprooted trees and snapped large limbs throughout the property.\nNext it moved to the nearby Brownsburg Park, where it flipped several soccer goals before heading toward the Delaware River. It left minor tree damage along River Road before it apparently lifted slightly before hitting the water, leaving no apparent damage on Pebbletown Road.\nMore subscriber content:17 Days in Bensalem: Floods, violent winds, tornado severely tested area's resolve in July\nTree damage from the tornado was sporadic, suggesting it ended a mile before its endpoint close to the Delaware River, five minutes later and a little under 2 miles away.\nThe last tornado on Wednesday night to hit Bucks County, like the first one, started elsewhere as a rotating thunderstorm.\nAs thunderstorms go, these are the least common and they have a high tendency to produce severe weather including tornadoes.\nA violent and rare EF3 tornado earlier that evening near Mullica Hill, New Jersey. spawned a rotating thunderstorm near Edgewater Park in Burlington County, a town on the opposite side of the Delaware River from Bucks.\nA resident told National Weather Service meteorologists that nearly 30 trees were uprooted or snapped along Beverly Road, near Handler Drive.\nAs the twister headed toward the river, it made a slight turn north traveling over the Burlington-Bristol Bridge and a power plant, which both appeared unscathed despite estimated peak winds of 90 mph.\nAs the tornado passed through a wooded floodplain along the river banks it left no sign of damage.\nThe funnel lifted just before it reached the business district on Mill Street in Bristol Borough, but not before tearing off roofing material, and snapping several trees along the Bristol Wharf, where its five minute, 2.8-mile trip ended.\nInside the July 29 tornado:The 8-minute, 3.5 miles of the Bensalem tornado: Flying car parts, collapsed buildings and a crushed pickup","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

National Hurricane Center at 9 p.m. New York time. The storm is expected to strengthen through Wednesday, threatening to bring 6-foot storm surges to Tampa Bay and heavy rains across the southeastern United States.\nLocal media played video of interstate highways jammed with cars and trucks trying to flee vulnerable towns and villages along Florida’s west coast. Damage and economic losses in the region could exceed $45 billion if current forecasts come true, said Chuck Watson, disaster modeler at Enki Research. That would rank Ian as the eighth costliest US hurricane, according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Previous estimates were higher when it appeared that Ian was going to hit Tampa straight.\nThe storm comes as climate change is fueling extreme weather around the world, including hurricanes that rapidly gain strength as they approach land. The year has already brought deadly floods to Kentucky, a heat wave that killed more than 2,000 people in Portugal and Spain, a relentless drought that gripped the western United States and a major hurricane that caused catastrophic damage from Puerto Rico to Atlantic Canada.\nHurricane-force winds extend up to 40 miles from Ian’s center and tropical-storm-force winds reach 140 miles, the agency said. The Florida Keys are expected to feel the wind start later Tuesday. Parts of central Florida could receive two feet of rain.\nWinds from Ian are still expected to peak at 130 miles per hour over the next 12 to 24 hours, making it a Category 4 storm on the five-step Saffir-Simpson scale, the hurricane center said. Landing is expected Wednesday evening.\nIan already triggered nationwide flooding and a blackout on Tuesday when it made landfall as a Category 3 storm in western Cuba, the heart of the island’s tobacco industry. . The storm ripped off roofs, uprooted trees and flooded streets, with most of the damage concentrated in the westernmost province of Pinar del Rio. The national power system was no longer producing electricity as of 8:30 p.m. local time, according to state media Granma.\nPresident Joe Biden told media at an event in Washington that he had approved requests for emergency aid from Florida. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has deployed 700 personnel to the state and its governor has activated 5,000 National Guard soldiers from the state and another 2,000 are expected from other states, Biden said.\nAbout 2.5 million people along Florida’s Gulf Coast have been told to evacuate ahead of Hurricane Ian, Gov. Ron DeSantis said during a Tuesday afternoon briefing. Residents should brace for a major hit that could bring a historic storm surge on Wednesday, he said.\nTampa and the surrounding area are bracing for the storm, with evacuation orders now in place from Levy and Lee counties, a more than 240-mile stretch along the west coast. Ports around Tampa, St. Petersburg and Manatee have been closed, according to the US Coast Guard.\nDuke Energy Corp., which supplies electricity to 1.9 million customers in the state, warned of extended power outages. Tampa Electric said it would proactively shut off power to low-lying areas of downtown Tampa to prevent its equipment from being damaged by salt water, but later backed off after the course change forecast of the storm.\nWalt Disney Co. is closing its Florida theme parks Wednesday and Thursday, while SeaWorld Entertainment Inc. has closed Busch Gardens in Tampa through Sept. 29.\nTampa International Airport announced a suspension of operations at 5 p.m. and American Airlines Group Inc. issued a travel alert for 20 airports in the Western Caribbean and Florida. Orlando International Airport was scheduled to halt flights Wednesday at 10:30 a.m. Airlines have canceled more than 2,800 flights to the region through Thursday.\nU.S. carriers added at least 14 more flights to Florida cities on Tuesday as the hurricane approached, spokespersons said. United Airlines Holdings Inc. has also moved to larger planes to carry more passengers on one flight each to Tampa, Sarasota Bradenton International and Southwest Florida International to Fort Myers, spokesman Joshua Freed said.\nThe storm looks likely to intensify food inflation as Ian takes direct aim at crucial orange-growing and fertilizer-making areas. According to meteorologist Donald Keeney of Maxar Technologies Inc., at least 75% of the state’s orange groves are under threat. Meanwhile, Mosaic Co.’s major phosphate facilities east of Tampa are also under threat, Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Alexis Maxwell said.\n(Updated storm location in paragraph 2, scope of power outages in Cuba in paragraph 7.)\nBloomberg Businessweek’s Most Read\n©2022 Bloomberg LP","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Every five to seven years, thousands of experts from around the globe synthesize the most recent developments in climate science, adaptation, vulnerability and mitigation. The report finds that global climate outlook is far worse than previously thought; and it calls for immediate and sweeping change to prevent catastrophe. It can be summarized in five sentences as follows:\n1) The average global temperature is 1.0O C. above pre-industrial levels now.\n2) This increase, as we have seen, is already causing more extreme weather, diminishing arctic ice, rising sea levels and is damaging countless land and sea ecosystems.\n3) By 2040, a likely 1.5O C. increase will make things worse.\n4) A 2.0O C. increase will be far worse than that.\n5) Only drastically radical change can stop this looming catastrophe.\nAccording to the report, human activities are estimated to have caused about 1.0 degree C. of global warming above pre-industrial levels. Global warming is likely to reach 1.5O C. between 2030 and 2052 if it continues at current rate.\nThis anthropogenic (man-made) global warming is caused by us humans, our lifestyle using vast amount of fossil fuels. Unless we drastically reduce carbon emissions, humanity along with all the other creatures and vegetation will suffer dire consequences with extinction of thousands of living species around the planet. Today, close to 200 species are going extinct every day. According to a major scientific study, global biodiversity collapse is imminent unless we take urgent action to reverse species loss in the tropics.\nAccording to the report, 1.5O C. increase will be bad enough with rising sea levels and extinction of species and destruction of ecosystems around the globe but 2.0O C. increase will be worst and catastrophic.\nAs per Guardian of UK, world’s leading climate scientists have warned there is only a dozen years for global warming to be kept to a maximum of 1.5O C., beyond which even half a degree will drastically worsen the risk of floods, drought, extreme heat and poverty for hundreds of millions of people.\nIn reality, the UN report on climate change carries a life or death warning. Limiting warming to 0.9O C. from now means the world can maintain ‘a semblance’ of the ecosystems we now have. Increasing further to another 0.9O C. essentially means a different and more challenging Earth for people and species.\nAccording to the scientists convened by the United Nations, the world must invest $2.4 trillion in clean energy every year through 2035 and cut the use of coal-fired power to almost nothing by 2050 to avoid catastrophic damage from climate change.\nDue to deeply entrenched capitalist wasted interests and foolish policies by some developed nations, limiting global warming to 1.5O C. above pre-industrial levels would be a herculean task, involving dramatic changes in the way governments, industries and societies function.\nTo avoid the looming global catastrophe, global emissions need to be reduced by 40 to 70 percent by 2050 from current levels and to near zero or below by 2100, according to the 2014 UN report.\nThe dire warning from this recent IPCC report is that the humanity has only 12 years to drastically reduce greenhouse gases emissions. Failing that, global warming will have its own momentum; it will be irreversible and unstoppable then. Then this planet will be hurtling towards a catastrophe unimaginable and all the living species and us humans’ very survival on this beautiful planet will be at stake.\nMillions of people and countless living creatures will suffer from flooding due to rising oceans, stronger, bigger and more frequent storms, hurricanes, cyclones, massive flooding and major droughts. Hundreds of millions of people living on coastlines will become homeless, becoming ‘eco-refugees’.\nHigher temperature will cause crop failure in many parts of the world, causing mass starvations around the globe. Especially hundreds of millions of farmers and people who depend on growing food in the Gangetic and Brahmaputra River Delta (India and Bangladesh), Yellow and Yangtze River Delta (China), Indus River Delta (Pakistan), and Mekong River Delta (Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia and Laos) will see major crop failure due to glacier fed rivers running dry in Summer. Thus, hundreds of millions of farmers and other people will have no food to eat. Africa and parts of Latin America and Middle East will face similar fate. As a result millions will perish if major nations don’t start taking drastic steps to mitigate climate change, the greatest threat facing humanity.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Forecasters said catastrophic freshwater flooding is expected well inland over the next few days as Florence crawls across the Carolinas. \"Not only that, but the wind field actually expands as the center of circulation starts to lose some intensity, you'll start to get hurricane force winds further out from the storm\".\nThe city of Jacksonville's statement says people have been moved to the city's public safety center as officials work to find a more permanent shelter. Water kills more people in hurricanes than wind, and the rain and storm surge will make Florence extremely risky.\nMore than 60 people had to be pulled from a collapsing motel at the height of the storm, and many more who defied evacuation orders were hoping to be rescued.\nDuke Energy, the nation's No. 2 power company, said Florence could knock out electricity to three-quarters of its four million customers in the Carolinas, and outages could last for weeks.\nThe U.S. Coast Guard said it closed the ports of Wilmington and Moorehead City in North Carolina and restricted port operations in Charleston, South Carolina.\nAccuweather reported that its meteorologists \"believe that the hurricane will stall and meander near the Carolina coast from Thursday night to Saturday\". Forecasters said the onslaught could last for days, leaving a wide area under water from both heavy downpours and rising seas.\nSTORM SURGE: The combination of a unsafe storm surge and the tide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising waters moving inland from the shoreline.\nKelly Salisbury said she's staying put in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, even though most of the town left.\nFlightAware expects the number of cancellations to rise, although \"the limited number of hubs being impacted by Florence will likely limit the scale of disruption that cascades through the national air travel system\", spokeswoman Sara Orsi said in a statement.\n\"Surviving this storm will be a test of endurance, teamwork, common sense and patience\". Forecasts show those currents giving Florence no sense of direction in a day or so.\nGovernor Roy Cooper requested the added disaster declaration on Thursday (local time) because he anticipates what his office calls \"historic major damage\" across the state from the hurricane.\nMore than 80,000 people were already without power as the storm began buffeting the coast, and more than 12,000 were in shelters. That forecast area also includes part of southwest Virginia.\nPrisoners were affected, too.\nIt's unclear exactly how many people fled, but more than 1.7 million people in the Carolinas and Virginia were warned to clear out.\nBy midday, Spanish moss blew sideways in the trees as the winds increased in Wilmington. Ocean water flowed between homes and on to streets on the Outer Banks; waves crashed against wooden fishing piers. It's now predicted to make landfall near Wilmington and then head west across SC.\nThe National Hurricane Center warned Thursday that the storm will \"pile up water\" along the coast.\nThis doesn't mean that the storm isn't just as unsafe, as the bulk of the damage and possible loss of life will likely come from the 9-foot storm surge or up to 40 inches of rain that meteorologists are predicting.\nThe hurricane was seen as a major test for the Federal Emergency Management Agency, which was heavily criticized as sluggish and unprepared for Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico a year ago.\nWind approaches outer banks of North Carolina\nEmergency declarations were in force in Georgia, South and North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia. Sixteen kilometres away in the city of Wilmington, wind gusts were stirring up frothy white caps into the Cape Fear River.\nSpurs duo Lloris, Alli to miss Liverpool, Inter clashes\nTottenham Hotspur will be without midfielder Dele Alli and goalkeeper Hugo Lloris when they face Liverpool at Wembley on Saturday.

According to the research carried out between 2017 and 2019, the project successfully improved air quality on four roads, as the Senate recently announced.\nThe German capital introduced the Tempo 30 project back in 2017 to improve its air quality. Focused on five delimited zones (Leipziger Straße, Kantstraße, Hauptstraße, Tempelhofer Damm, and Potsdamer Straße), the project was a significant success. Now that the trial phase is done, local authorities have decided to keep the speed limit in all five zones.\nThe project initially generated considerable dragging traffic and spillover effects into the neighboring streets, leading to lengthier waiting times for public transport. Nonetheless, the situation normalized after some technical adjustments to traffic lights and many more vehicles running the route.\nTempo 30 successfully decreased NO2 emissions in four out of the five cases. NO2 levels on Leipziger Straße, Kantstraße, Hauptstraße, and Tempelhofer Damm fell by up to 3.8 micrograms per cubic meter of outdoor air. Before enforcing the speed limit, the baseline values on these roads averaged between 41.2 and 51.6 micrograms per cubic meter.\nThe only exception was Potsdamer Straße, who saw no reduction in NO2 pollution. According to the study, this is mainly due to the high traffic volume in this zone: Before Tempo 30, the average speed of cars in the area was already well below 30 km/h.\nRead more on Berlin's official website here.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Snowplow drivers were out in force overnight in Chicago, as six to eight inches of snow and plummeting temperatures moved in.\nNine inches of snow fell in northern Indiana before skies cleared early Friday. Forecasters said cold winds still could whip up lingering lake effect snow showers and push snowfall on Lake Michigan's southern shore above a foot, while Michigan's Upper Peninsula braced for similar totals before the storm continued its eastward roll through Ohio and into New England.\nIn a typical year, such a storm would hardly register in the Upper Midwest. But the atmospheric patterns, including the Pacific pattern known as La Nina, that have conspired to make this an unusually icy winter in Alaska have kept it abnormally warm in parts of the lower 48 states accustomed to more snow.\nFor Steve Longo, a 47-year-old chiropractor from Wauwatosa, Wis., the wait to try out the cross country skis he got for Christmas was excruciating. He and friend Alex Ng, 56, wasted no time hitting the trails at the Lapham Peak cross country ski area, about 25 miles west of Milwaukee.\n\"I wasn't worried,\" Longo said. \"I was just anxious.\"\n\"This is Wisconsin,\" a confident Ng said. \"There's going to be snow.\"\nWhile the dry weather has been an unexpected boon to many cash-strapped communities, which have saved big by not having to pay for plowing, salting and sanding their streets, it has hurt seasonable businesses that bank on the snow.\n\"If people don't see it in their yards they are not likely to come out and ski and snowboard so this is wonderful, wonderful, wonderful for us,\" Kim Engel, owner of Sunburst Ski area in Kewaskum in southeastern Wisconsin, said as she watched the snow come down out the window.\nAfter a warm fall and early winter, the arrival of blustery weather had Vermont's ski industry celebrating. The Martin Luther King Jr. Day weekend is one of the most important moneymaking weekends of the season.\n\"We are absolutely giddy, stoked, and the phones are ringing off the hook,\" said Jen Butson, a spokeswoman for the Vermont Ski Areas Association. \"It's what we've been hoping for. Our snow dances have paid off.\"\nThe snow finally enabled the state's snowmobile organization, the Vermont Association of Snow Travelers, to start opening some trails.\nIn upstate New York, the storm dumped up to 8 inches of snow on the southern Adirondack Mountains and forced scores of schools to cancel or delay the start of classes. Until Thursday's storm, Albany had received only 6.5 inches of snow this winter — about 10 inches less than normal, according to the weather service.\nSchools also delayed start times or canceled classes altogether in Ohio, where spots along Lake Erie could get as much of a foot of snow by Saturday afternoon.\nThe storm was an annoyance for most commuters, and authorities said it caused hundreds of traffic accidents and at least three road deaths — two in Iowa and one in Missouri. And while some lucky grade-schoolers cheered an unexpected day of sledding, hundreds of would-be air travelers had to scramble to come up with a Plan B.\nMore than 400 flights were canceled at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago on Thursday, according to the Chicago Department of Aviation. Across town at Midway International Airport, more than 100 flights were canceled.\nContributing to this report were Associated Press writers Carrie Antlfinger in Milwaukee; Jim Salter in St. Louis; Chris Carola in Albany, N.Y.; Wilson Ring in Montpelier, Vt.; Caryn Rousseau in Chicago; Tom Coyne in South Bend, Ind.; Carrie Schedler in Indianapolis; Roger Schneider in Milwaukee; and Melanie Welte in Des Moines, Iowa.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

On Sunday, at least 1,200 flights were canceled across the country, leaving last-minute holiday travelers stranded.\nClimate change may be responsible in part for the increase in snowfall, according to Environmental Protection FundAn environmental advocacy group said, “A warmer planet is evaporating more water into the atmosphere.”\n“That moisture means more precipitation in the form of heavy snow or rain,” it said on its website.\n“During the warmer months, this can cause record flooding. But in winter – when our part of the world is away from the sun – temperatures drop, and we can get massive winter storms instead of rain,” it said.\nMeanwhile, the National Weather Service said “conditions are expected to improve slowly as the system weakens.” But by Sunday it said it would “continue to filter cold Canadian air into the eastern two-thirds of the country.”\nIt said “severe lake-effect snow, gusty winds and reduced visibility” will continue downwind of the Great Lakes and “bitter conditions” across much of the country.\n“Lake-effect snow may persist into Christmas Day with locally blizzard conditions,” it said.\nDaniel Arkin And Associated Press Contributed.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Schumann resonances were named after German physicist Winfried Schumann, who first predicted them in 1952. Electromagnetic impulses like those from global lightning flashes (Earth’s thunderstorm activity) fill this cavity and excite the Schumann resonances. The first accurate measurements of the Schumann resonances were made from 1960 to 1963 and since then there has been an increasing interest in them across a wide variety of fields.\nRadiation from the sun ionizes part of the earth’s upper atmosphere and forms a conductive plasma layer, the ionosphere. The ionosphere surrounding our planet is negatively charged relative to the earth’s surface, which creates a strong electrical field between the earth and ionosphere. Schumann resonances occur because the space between the surface of the earth and the conductive ionosphere acts as a closed waveguide. This waveguide acts as a resonant cavity for electromagnetic waves. Schumann resonances appear as distinct peaks at extremely low frequencies starting around 7.8 hertz, which is considered the fundamental frequency.\nResonances can be observed at around 7.8, 14, 20, 26, 33, 39 and 45 hertz, with a daily variation of about ± 0.5 hertz, which is caused by the daily increase and decrease in the ionization of the ionosphere due to UV radiation from the sun.\nThe amplitude of Schumann resonances does change and is bigger when ionospheric plasma gets excited. Ionospheric plasma excitation happens because of solar activity, thunderstorms, use of scalar plasma weapons and HAARP and lately also when the Light forces are clearing the plasma anomaly.\nThe great variations that nobody can explain but that give us a clear sign that the planet is changing. The Earth is vibration higher and higher, just like us!\nA more powerful activity that went above 40 Hz from 17:00 UTC on July 3rd and it’s apparently ongoing.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It’s a map of how much rainfall we’ve had in the past 30 days relative to average. Western Lauderdale County? Four to five inches above normal. Northern Madison County? Almost three inches below normal or ‘average.’ Average June rainfall, by the way, is 4.62″ in Huntsville.\nSo, some have had over 8″ of rain in the past month, and some have had little more than one inch. Put yourself in the forecaster’s shoes for a moment and ask the question: ‘how do you really describe that?!?’ The picture is worth a thousand words. Scattered storms like this are 100% ‘expected’ but about 99.9% unpredictable when it comes to the precise location, duration, and how much rain you will get.\nThat’s where our ‘chance’ of rain comes into play.\nTuesday’s chance: 20% of at least 0.1″ of rain or greater. That means we are confident a few spotty downpours will develop in North Alabama and Southern Tennessee; however, they will be few in number leaving the odds at any one spot very low.\nThe chance goes up to 30% on Wednesday and Thursday (July 4th), and 40% for Friday, Saturday and Sunday.\nWhat do you do with that kind of information? Two things: (1) understand that a storm could develop nearby and (2) be flexible with your plans because the rain/lightning threats are usually short-lived, and you can get back to business as soon as it’s over.\nBy the way, the spotty, uneven storms kept missing the rain gauge at Huntsville International practically all month. At one time this year, we had a 12″ surplus. That’s now been cut to 7.85″ because of the relatively dry weather since mid-May!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Why? Why won’t they admit the truth? Maybe there are two words that explain it: oil industry,” he said.\nMichael made landfall close to a Category 5 storm on Wednesday afternoon, ripping apart Florida panhandle buildings and severely damaging Tyndall Air Force Base.\nTwo deaths have been reported due to the hurricane, which inflicted heavy winds and rain across Georgia and the Carolinas this morning on its march up the coast. More than 900,000 homes and businesses were without power this morning.\n“This year has seen huge a number of powerful storms and hurricanes buffet the Atlantic seaboard and the Gulf. Harvey, Irma, Maria, Florence, and now Michael have wrought severe damages. According to NOAA, 2017 was the most expensive year on record for disasters in the US. At some point, we have to acknowledge that the intensity of these storms is much greater than in past years and is a symptom of a changing climate,” Schumer said. “Climate change is real, it is being driven by human activity, it is happening right now. These are facts; they are not in dispute. Our scientists know it, our businesses know it, the world knows it, and the American people know.”\n“But too many senators on the other side of the aisle just put their head in the sand,” he added. “It costs us more, and more, and more.”\nSchumer cited a new UN report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that says there’s currently a 12-year window to make “far-reaching and unprecedented changes” to avert dramatic effects of global warming.\n“So while we are thinking about the people of Florida and Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina and everyone in Hurricane Michael’s path, let’s remember that we are running out of time to do something about climate change, and the kind of storms we are seeing now will only increase if this body continues to keep its head in the sand, ostrichlike, and ignore the scientific realities,” he added.\nHomeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen was asked at a Wednesday meeting of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee if climate change is a security threat to the homeland.\n“We measure out rain storms now, the amount of rain by the foot, not by the inch,” said Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.). “We have parts of Montana, Idaho, Oregon, Washington, even California where they — they’re on fire, they’ve been on fire earlier this year. Places bigger than my state, a big state I might add. And the extreme weather we’ve had, I think in the last 100 years, 33 Category 5 hurricanes in the whole Atlantic.”\n“I think it’s very serious. As you said, just in 2017 alone, 15 percent of the United States population was affected by either a hurricane or a forest fire. So the intensity, the changes in weather patterns, the changes in which the hazards manifest all require us to update everything we do,” Nielsen replied.\nShe added that pre-mitigation grants “will really help to prepare areas, but we have to increase our modeling.”\n“We’re working much more closely with NOAA, working much more closely with the Department of Interior, USDA,” Nielsen added. “We have to do more to anticipate and understand how these start to manifest.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But one person's \"pleasant\" might be another person's \"awful,\" and anyone who has spent time in Portlandia knows that the region gets its share of rain. But how about snow? When? How much? These are obviously things you are going to want to know before you head west in winter. Read on for Portland climate tips.\nSnow? In Portland?\nWhen they were handing out weather, Portland could have done a lot worse. It's climate is mild, with warm, dry summers and cool, rainy winters. A comparison to nearby Seattle shows that Portland's average temperatures are warmer, its hours of sunshine longer and its precipitation less.\nPortland's average high temperature year-round is about 63 degrees F and its average low around 46 degrees F. It gets a yard or more of rain every year, from 36 to 44 inches, depending on who you ask. And a little snow. Really very little – some 3 to 4 inches. Compare this to the U.S. average of 26 inches per year, and it looks as negligible as it is.\nBreaking down the weather\nPortland is a city with distinct seasons. Summers in Portland are truly warm. Average highs shoot up to between 74 and 81 degrees F in the summer months. The average lows for those months (54 to 58 degrees F) are warmer than the average highs in winter.\nAverage high temperatures in spring and fall are 15 to 20 degrees lower than summer weather, although the shoulder months of May and September are warmer and closer to summer temperatures. December, January and February are the cold months, with average low temperatures just above freezing.\nIt's important to know when all that rain falls, so you can plan when to go and what to pack. November and December get the most rain, about 5.5 inches each month, followed by January in second place with a little under 5 inches. February and March tie for third at just under 4 inches. The summer months of July and August get just over half an inch each, while June and September are only slightly higher.\nPacking for Portlandia adventures\nIf you're heading to Portland in fall, winter or spring, prepare for rain. That means you want to pack a solid raincoat and comfortable rain boots or waterproof shoes. The umbrella question is one you must tackle yourself. An umbrella might come in very handy, but locals scorn umbrellas and aren't partial to tourists who use them.\nThis cool city in the Pacific Northwest is the perfect place to layer clothes. Even summer afternoons can get breezy, and night temperatures drop way too low for shorts and a T-shirt. In other seasons, you'll regularly need long sleeves, hoodies or jackets to stay warm at times. For winter, make room for a warm coat.\nDon't worry about sartorial elegance. Bring comfortable, \"crunchy\" clothing and you'll fit right in. Jeans work well by day, but women might bring flowing hippie-style skirts if that suits your mood. Stiletto heels and furs will definitely stand out – and not in a good way.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Fortunately the Geminids will soon be here. Peaking in mid-December, the Geminids produce as many as 100 shooting stars per hour. That's about 10 times less intense than the recent Leonid peak, but nevertheless a nice display.\nGeminid meteors fly out of a point in the sky (called \"the radiant\") near the star Castor in the constellation Gemini. Fortunately for novices it isn't necessary to find Gemini to enjoy the show. During the shower, meteors can appear anywhere in the sky -- although their trails will point back to the radiant. To see them simply go outside (don't forget to dress warmly if you live in the wintry northern hemisphere) and look up; the unaided eye is the best tool for watching meteors.\nObservers in the northern hemisphere will have the best view of the shower because Gemini climbs so high in northern skies. As seen from mid-Northern latitudes, Gemini rises just after sunset and soars overhead around midnight. The hour after sunset on Dec. 13th will be a good time for sky watchers in Europe, North America, northern Africa, and western Asia to spot a few Geminid Earthgrazers. Later, during the hours between midnight and dawn on Dec. 14th, the meteor rate will climb to 100 or more per hour.\nEast Asians will see the greatest number of Geminids during the hours before dawn on Friday, Dec. 14th, and perhaps a smattering of Earthgrazers after sunset on the same day.\nAbove: As viewed from mid-northern latitudes, Gemini will appear high in the western sky at 4 o'clock in the morning on Dec. 14th. This is true for all time zones. The Geminid radiant is denoted by a red dot.\nSouthern-hemisphere observers won't see as many Geminids because the constellation never rises much higher than 30 degrees above their horizon. Nevertheless, the shower will produce dozens of bright shooting stars and so it's worth watching. Sky watchers in southern Africa and South America might see a few Earthgrazing Geminids around 10 p.m. local time on Dec. 13th, and a larger number of \"ordinary\" Geminids between local midnight and dawn on Dec. 14th. Sky watchers in Australia, New Zealand, and surrounding areas near the international date line will see the greatest number of Geminids during the hours between 1 a.m. and dawn on Friday, Dec. 14th, and perhaps some Earthgrazers after sunset later that same day.\nAbove: The northern sky as viewed from South Africa on the date of the 2001 Geminid meteor shower. The Geminid radiant, about 30 degrees above the horizon, is denoted by a red dot.\nAnd finally, Earthgrazers: They are disintegrating meteoroids that fly over the horizon nearly parallel to the atmosphere. Earthgrazers are slow-moving and produce long colorful tails. Observers in North America, Europe and western Asia are favored for Geminid Earthgrazers just after local sunset on Dec. 13th.\nClear skies and good meteor hunting!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The exoplanet is a gas giant orbiting a sun-like star about 700 light-years away. This discovery will provide important information about the composition and formation of the planet. The discovery will soon be published in the journal Nature and provides evidence that in the future, James Webb will be able to detect and measure carbon dioxide in the thin atmospheres of smaller, rocky planets.\nWASP-39 b is a hot gas giant planet and has about one-quarter the mass of Jupiter (almost the same mass as Saturn), but is 1.3 times larger in diameter than Jupiter. Its swelling is partly due to its high temperature — about 900 degrees Celsius. Unlike the cooler, compact gas giants in the Solar System, WASP-39 b orbits its parent star at a fairly close distance—about one-eighth the distance between Mercury and the Sun; It takes just four days to go around. This planet was discovered in 2011 by ground-based telescopes, using the transit method. As the planet passes between the star and us as it orbits its star, it causes periodic dimming of its light. Astronomers call this event a transit.\nPrevious observations, including those by NASA’s Hubble and Spitzer Space Telescopes, have confirmed the presence of water vapor, sodium and potassium in the planet’s atmosphere. Webb’s unique infrared sensitivity has now confirmed the presence of carbon dioxide there.\nTransiting planets like WASP-39 b, whose orbits are viewed from the side rather than from above, offer researchers an ideal opportunity to study a planet’s atmosphere.\nDuring the transit, part of the star’s light will be completely obscured by the planet, and part will pass through its atmosphere.\nBecause different gases absorb different combinations of colors, researchers can study small differences in brightness across wavelengths of the emitted spectrum, and as a result, determine exactly what the atmosphere is made of. Because of its inflated atmosphere and frequent transits, WASP-39 is an ideal target for emission spectroscopy.\nFirst clear detection of carbon dioxide\nTo observe WASP-39, the researchers used the Webb Near-Infrared Spectrograph (NIRSpec). In the resulting spectrum of an exoplanet’s atmosphere, a small bump between 4.1 and 4.6 microns represents the first clear, detailed evidence of carbon dioxide ever observed on a planet outside the Solar System.\n“As soon as the data appeared on my screen, I was greeted by a huge feature of carbon dioxide. It was a special moment that crossed an important boundary in exoplanetary science,” says Zafar Rustamkulov, a member of the research group.\nNo other observatory has ever measured such small differences in the brightness of so many individual colors in the 3-5.5 micron range of an exoplanet’s emission spectrum. Access to this part of the spectrum is crucial for measuring gases such as water vapor, methane, and carbon dioxide—which are thought to exist on many different types of exoplanets.\nAccording to team leader Natalie Bathala, a researcher at the University of California, Santa Cruz, the detection of such a clear signal of carbon dioxide on WASP-39 b is a sign that we will also detect the atmospheres of small, Earth-sized rocky exoplanets.\nStudying the composition of the planet’s atmosphere is important from the point of view that it provides information about the origin and formation of the planet.\nAccording to researchers, carbon dioxide molecules are highly sensitive witnesses of planet formation. By measuring the properties of carbon dioxide, in the future, we will be able to determine how much solid and how much gaseous matter was used in the formation of this gas giant planet. Over the next decade, the James Webb Space Telescope will make such measurements on many different planets and provide detailed information on planet formation; This in turn will tell us how unique our solar system is or isn’t.\nPrepared from nasa.gov.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Beijing Municipal Environment Protection Bureau (BMEPB) said that post the Lunar New Year’s celebrations, the harmful particulate matter in the air had hit the second-highest level in five years by Saturday morning, the state-owned China News Service reported.\nBeijing had initiated a \"war against pollution\" in 2014 as part of the government’s promise to reverse the damage done by decades of breakneck growth which had some price to pay.Public health concerns over air pollution have grown and the government has found no source of pollution too small to ignore.\n\"In setting off fireworks, be conscious of 'setting off the (pollution) index',\" read an editorial on Saturday in the People's Daily newspaper, the Communist Party mouthpiece. Millions of people move to China to visit family and friends during the Lunar New Year which the government predicts up to 3 billion trips.\nThough the government had made attempt to make people light lesser firecrackers with the help of fewer approvals for firework stalls and officials being warned to lead by example and abstain from the pyrotechnics.\nBut the efforts didn’t bear many fruits. Although state-owned Xinhua reported that purchases of fireworks fell 4.9 percent in Beijing this year, the measures weren't enough to avoid a spike in pollution from healthy to hazardous levels in a matter of hours.\nBeijing's level of PM2.5, a measure of small particulate matter particularly damaging to health, peaked at 647 micrograms per cubic metre early on Saturday, the national Ministry of Environmental Protection said in a statement on its website.\nThat was well beyond the upper limit of 500 on China's air quality index and double the threshold considered hazardous.\nDispersal of the pollution largely depends on weather conditions, with two cold air fronts likely to help reduce pollution in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region through to Wednesday, the environmental ministry said, before conditions deteriorate again and potentially lead to another heavy bout of pollution.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This sets the stage fr timely sowing of kharif crops across the country.\n“This was one of the smoothest advances of the monsoon in recent years. Usually the monsoon progresses in fits and starts, but this year it did not stall for long at any stage,” said D Sivananda Pai, IMD’s lead monsoon forecaster.\n印度气象局首席季风预报员D Sivananda Pai称：“这是近年来季风最平稳推进的一次。通常季风是时断时续的，但今年在任何阶段都没有停滞太久。”\nRain in June so far has been quite good: IMD director\nHowever, with the monsoon trough moving towards the Himyan foothills, the pns of northwest India, including Delhi-NCR, are not likely to get good rainfall over the next few days.\nThe monsoon’s smooth advance has led to a rain-surplus over the country in June, with nearly 22% higher than normal rainfall so far.\nThe monsoon got favourable conditions for its advance from the onset stage. First, Cyclone Amphun helped the monsoon reach the Andn & Nicobar Islands in mid-May. Then, Cyclone Nisarga, which formed in the Arabian Sea towards the end of May, helped monsoon’s onset over Ker on June 1 and other parts of south India and the western coast.\nFinally, the formation of a low pressure area over Bay of Bengal which moved west-northwestwards and another cyclonic circulation over central India helped in its quick advance through central and north India. Mrutyunjay Mohapatra, director general of meteorology, IMD, said the formation of a low pressure area over Bay of Bengal which moved west-northwestwards and another cyclonic circulation over central India helped in advance of monsoon.\n“The rain so far has been quite good with 31 out of 36 meteorological subdivisions getting normal to excess rainfall during June. This would benefit kharif sowing,” he added.\nA good timely monsoon is the best thing to happen for India. Its agri-based economy will flourish with a good monsoon.\nThe ONLY silver lining in 2020 so far and hope the rural economy boosts the sunken GDP...and the farmers get more income.\nThis year the monsoon is likely to be good. It is important to focus on rain water harvesting.\nGood that monsoons are normal. Though it will make things easier for Covid 19 to spread, the future of India lies in focussing on Agriculture.

Next, see if it is safe to touch the person. Move him or her to a safer area if there is a continued danger from lightning strikes. If the person is not breathing or has no pulse, start cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and continue until help arrives.\nWhat happens when a person is struck by lightning?\nDr. Griggs says if a person is struck by lightning, it can cause cardiac arrest, which stops a person’s body from circulating blood and cause direct injury to the brain and nervous system, preventing the brain from being able to send the appropriate signals to tell the body to continue breathing.\nIs lightning hotter than the sun?\nLightning is four times hotter than the sun. … A return stroke of lightning, that is, a bolt shooting up from the ground to a cloud (after a stream of electricity came downward from a cloud) can peak at 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit (F). The surface of the sun is around 11,000 degrees F.\nWhat are the 3 types of lightning?\nThere are three primary types of lightning which include: cloud-to-ground (the most commonly known type), cloud-to-air, and cloud-to-cloud. With cloud-to-ground lightning, the rapid discharge of lightning is a channel of negative charge that is attracted to the positively charged ground.\nWhat color Lightning is the strongest?\nWhat Color Lightning is the Strongest?Blue – this color of lightning is an indication that a high precipitation storm is occurring with chances of hail. … Purple – this color of lightning occurs when there is high humidity in the atmosphere and is typically accompanied by high precipitation.More items…•\nWhat is red lightning?\nSprites, also known as red lightning, are electrical discharges that appear as bursts of red light above clouds during thunderstorms. … The researchers hope to learn more about the physical and chemical processes that give rise to sprites and other forms of upper atmospheric lightning.\nWhat are the chances of getting struck by lightning in a pool?\nAnd I get it when it comes to outdoor swimming pools; although the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say the odds of being struck by lightning in a given year are only around 1 in 500,000, engaging in outdoor recreational activities certainly can increase your risk.\nIs heat lightning the same as regular lightning?\nThere is no difference; heat lightning is nothing more than lightning generated from a thunderstorm so distant its thunder can’t be heard. With the tops of summer thunderstorm often building in excess of 50,000 feet, the lightning can often be seen more than 125 miles away.\nHow hot is a lightning bolt?\nIn fact, lightning can heat the air it passes through to 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit (5 times hotter than the surface of the sun).\nWhat happens if a pool gets struck by lightning?\nLightning tends to strike the highest point, but height isn’t the only factor in where it hits. … If you’re in electrified water, you may suffer electric shock and burns, even if lightning doesn’t hit you directly. You can die from indirect lightning strikes in pools, so you should avoid swimming during thunderstorms.\nWhich lightning is more dangerous?\nCloud to ground lightning is the most dangerous. The ground is mainly consisted of positively charged particles while the bottom of violent storm clouds have negative charged particles. Opposites attract in this situation, and lightning goes after positively charged particles.\nDo you die when you get struck by lightning?\nDirect hits are usually lethal, but only about 10 percent of people struck by lightning die, thanks to phenomena like side flash and surge voltage. If you’re not instantly killed, you can still die from cardiac arrest as the lightning short-circuits your heart’s electrical rhythms.\nWhat does being struck by lightning feel like?\nA jolting, excruciating pain. “My whole body was just stopped—I couldn’t move any more,” Justin recalls. “The pain was … I can’t explain the pain except to say if you’ve ever put your finger in a light socket as a kid, multiply that feeling by a gazillion throughout your entire body.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Forecasters predicted it could be among the most powerful storms to strike East Africa in modern history, and as the cyclone moved toward shore, it killed three people in the island nation of Comoros, just off the coast, uprooting trees and ripping off roofs.\nThe storm was expected to dump as much as 13 inches of rain within 24 hours of making landfall, forecasters said. More than 700,000 people live in the cyclone’s path, according to the United Nations.\n“This is another potential tragedy for Mozambique,” said Dorothy Sang, a manager for the aid group Oxfam who is based in Beira, the port city hit hard by Cyclone Idai last month. “We’re still struggling to scale up and meet the needs of everyone after the last cyclone. This will make it much harder.”\nMeteorologists expected that the new cyclone would strike the Mozambican province of Cabo Delgado, about 600 miles northeast of Beira. It made landfall north of Pemba, a city in the province, around 4:15 p.m., according to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center.\nForecasters on Thursday upgraded the storm to Category 4, the second-highest hurricane classification. The United States’ National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said it was the first hurricane-strength storm in modern history to make landfall in Cabo Delgado Province.\nDéborah Nguyen, a communications officer for the World Food Program, said from Johannesburg that strong winds had already hit Cabo Delgado by Thursday afternoon.\n“Some buildings are already damaged,” Ms. Nguyen said, adding that trees had blown over and power outages were expected.\nCabo Delgado lies north of regions accustomed to cyclones, so local communities are less prepared to deal with flooding, said Ms. Sang, of Oxfam.\nRescue workers stockpiled more than 300 tons of emergency rations but are concerned about being able to reach people if roads are damaged, Ms. Nguyen said.\n[How you can help people in the regions devastated by Cyclone Idai.]\nThe presence of armed militias in the region — where more than 100 people have been killed in the last year — pose an additional security threat, she added.\nAugusta Maita, the director of Mozambique’s national disaster management agency, told reporters that evacuation plans were in place, “even if it means forced evacuation.”\nIn Tanzania, the authorities closed schools and ordered civil servants to stay home.\nAid workers in Mozambique have scrambled to contain diseases like cholera and malaria since Cyclone Idai receded, with the World Health Organization requesting million to deal with the crisis. Further damage would be likely to set back these efforts, aid officials said.\nEarly photos sent by Ms. Nguyen out of Cabo Delgado showed homes damaged by the storm and giant trees torn from the ground as rain set in for the night.B:\n【惨】【叫】【声】【在】【黑】【夜】【中】【响】【起】，【明】【明】【是】【个】【手】【无】【缚】【鸡】【之】【力】【的】【女】【人】，【却】【将】【几】【名】【特】【权】【组】【成】【员】【全】【部】【击】【杀】，【残】【尸】【遍】【地】，【死】【相】【极】【其】【凄】【惨】。 【另】【外】【一】【边】，【在】【没】【有】【人】【追】【捕】【之】【后】，【陈】【曦】【便】【回】【到】【了】【出】【租】【屋】【内】，【刚】【打】【开】【门】【就】【闻】【到】【了】【一】【股】【浓】【郁】【的】【血】【腥】【味】。 【原】【本】【就】【比】【较】【狭】【隘】【的】【客】【厅】，【此】【时】【变】【得】【尤】【为】【拥】【挤】。 【因】【为】【徐】【腾】【和】【张】【倩】【的】【身】【体】【全】【都】【膨】【胀】【了】【起】【来】，【宛】\n【然】【冥】【斯】【耀】【的】【幽】【冥】【系】【不】【像】【冥】【思】【夜】【的】【那】【么】【顺】【缓】，【它】【暴】【虐】，【狠】【厉】，【随】【着】【男】【人】【的】【动】【作】，【别】【墅】【都】【被】【整】【个】【一】【切】【为】【二】！ 【好】【强】！ 【云】【酥】【瞪】【圆】【了】【眼】【睛】，【这】、【这】【是】【暴】【走】【了】【吗】？ 【才】【激】【发】【异】【能】【就】【暴】【走】！ 【她】【咬】【牙】【冲】【进】【去】，【将】【崩】【溃】【的】【男】【人】【紧】【紧】【搂】【住】：“【阿】【耀】，【阿】【耀】【你】【看】【着】【我】，【你】【看】【着】【我】！” 【不】【能】【暴】【走】，【不】【能】【暴】【走】，【不】【能】【被】【异】【能】【所】【吞】【噬】\n【又】【是】【接】【连】【两】【尾】【断】【去】，【化】【为】【两】【具】【狐】【身】。 【如】【此】【一】【来】，【那】【具】【真】【身】【上】【的】【尾】【巴】【就】【仅】【仅】【剩】【下】【六】【条】。【点】【点】【殷】【红】【渗】【出】，【最】【后】【被】【浑】【厚】【妖】【气】【撑】【为】【一】【抹】【浅】【浅】【红】【色】，【在】【一】【身】【金】【色】【毛】【皮】【上】【灵】【动】【游】【走】，【而】【一】【身】【气】【机】【却】【是】【直】【接】【越】【过】【脱】【劫】，【攀】【升】【到】【了】【元】【神】【之】【下】【所】【能】【容】【纳】【的】【极】【限】，【虽】【然】【注】【定】【大】【战】【过】【后】【会】【跌】【落】【下】【去】，【但】【此】【时】【气】【势】【之】【强】【却】【是】【仅】【在】【道】【明】【老】【僧】【之】【下】，天下彩栗天下彩同步报码【木】【叶】【忍】【者】【村】，【忍】【备】【部】【特】【殊】【监】【控】【室】【之】【外】【的】【走】【廊】【里】。 【面】【具】【男】【宇】【智】【波】【斑】【淡】【然】【的】【站】【在】【那】，【看】【着】【走】【廊】【尽】【头】【的】【那】【个】【忍】【者】。【对】【方】【穿】【着】【的】【就】【是】【最】【普】【通】【的】【暗】【部】【忍】【者】【作】【战】【服】，【带】【着】【的】【也】【是】【一】【张】【很】【平】【常】【的】【猫】【面】【具】，【不】【过】【面】【具】【男】【却】【很】【清】【楚】【对】【方】【的】【身】【份】。 “【鼬】，【你】【知】【道】【吗】？【本】【来】【我】【们】【可】【以】【分】【享】【这】【个】【世】【界】【的】。” 【猫】【形】【面】【具】【之】【下】，【是】【鼬】【那】【独】【特】\n“【狂】【妄】！” 【听】【到】【沙】【鲁】【的】【话】，【羽】【夜】【目】【光】【一】【冷】，【他】【也】【知】【道】【自】【己】【遇】【到】【了】【一】【个】【难】【缠】【的】【对】【手】。 【被】【沙】【鲁】【抓】【住】【的】【腿】【元】【素】【化】，【从】【沙】【鲁】【双】【手】【中】【脱】【出】，【随】【即】【化】【作】【尖】【锐】【的】【龙】【爪】。 【百】【裂】【爪】！ “【嗤】！！！” 【空】【间】【被】【切】【割】【的】【声】【音】【无】【比】【刺】【耳】，【羽】【夜】【尖】【锐】【的】【龙】【爪】【横】【扫】【破】【空】，【哪】【怕】【龙】【珠】【世】【界】【的】【空】【间】【异】【常】【稳】【固】，【也】【隐】【隐】【被】【裂】【开】【一】【条】【直】【线】。\n【顾】【雪】【回】【家】【的】【时】【候】【已】【经】【是】【十】【二】【点】【过】【了】，【她】【悄】【悄】【地】【打】【开】【门】，【客】【厅】【是】【黑】【的】。 【顾】【雪】【松】【了】【一】【口】【气】，【轻】【手】【轻】【脚】【地】【提】【起】【箱】【子】【准】【备】【回】【自】【己】【的】【房】【间】。 “【回】【来】【了】。” 【正】【在】【顾】【雪】【已】【经】【握】【住】【门】【把】【手】【准】【备】【推】【门】【进】【屋】【的】【时】【候】【客】【厅】【的】【灯】【啪】【的】【一】【下】【开】【了】。 【顾】【妈】【倚】【在】【她】【卧】【室】【的】【门】【框】【那】【里】，【旁】【边】【就】【是】【客】【厅】【灯】【的】【开】【关】，【她】【的】【手】【还】【放】【在】【那】【里】。 【顾】","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The regulation will require fracking operations to install equipment by January 2015 that will reduce emissions of ozone-producing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous air pollutants, such as benzene and hexane. A side benefit will be capture of the powerful greenhouse gas methane, said Gina McCarthy, EPA assistant administrator in the Office of Air & Radiation, when releasing the regulation. The main anthropogenic source of methane in the atmosphere is leakage from the oil and gas industry. Methane is the primary component of natural gas. The regulation will affect some 13,000 natural gas wells that are repeatedly subjected to injections of water and chemicals at high pressure to release natural gas trapped in shale formations. The rule is controversial because it will constrain drillers nationwide that have found an abundant source of natural gas through fracking. The new supplies of gas are having a profound impact on the U.S. economy and industry. In particular, the chemical industry is profiting from expanding inventories and falling prices of natural gas feedstock. But thousands of new gas fracking operations have increased the release of air pollutants and methane, which is a greenhouse gas that is at least 20 times as potent as carbon dioxide. EPA released its original proposal for regulating air emissions from fracking last July. The American Petroleum Institute (API) and other industry trade associations criticised that plan in terms of how soon it would be implemented. The final regulation, McCarthy said, addresses those concerns and gives gas drillers more than two years to buy and install the equipment necessary to capture methane and other pollutants. Meanwhile, fracking operations are allowed to flare methane and other air emissions. The modified regulation received tentative praise from Americas Natural Gas Association and API. The trade groups say the changes are constructive and the improvements allow our companies to continue reducing emissions while producing the oil and natural gas our country needs. The final rule received support from environmental groups, including two in the SouthwestWildEarth Guardians and San Juan Citizens Alliancethat sued to force EPA to issue the regulation. WildEarth Guardians Climate & Energy Program Director Jeremy Nichols says, Allowing flaring for more than two years is a bit of disappointment. We have the ability to capture that gas. On the other hand, flaring will keep these poisons out of the air. The onus, he adds, is now on industry to move ahead and install the new equipment. About half of new U.S. gas wells already have devices installed that eliminate VOC emissions and capture air pollutants and methane during operations, McCarthy said. The recovered methane will generate $11 million to $19 million in annual savings beyond the cost of equipment, she added. The extent of methane leakage is a point of contention. Industry says EPAs estimates are too high. Surveys by gas companies and environmental groups, among others, are under way to better quantify how much methane is escaping.\nChemical & Engineering News, 19 April 2012 ;http://pubs.acs.org/cen/news ;","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It’s a perfect climate for winter camping, hiking, driving and to escape the cold of Central Australian winters if you’re travelling up from down south.\nDoes Australia ever get cold?\nHow Cold Does It Get In Australia? Winters in Australia are generally cool with temperatures dropping to as low as 5 degrees Celsius. You might also experience some frosty nights during Australia winter months. June and July are typically the coldest months.\nWhat is the coldest month in Australia?\nSummary. In most parts of Australia, the coldest night and day typically occur during July, several weeks after the June winter solstice. However, every year is different and in most areas we can get the coldest temperatures at any time from autumn to spring.\nWhat temperature is considered cold in Australia?\nIts seasons are more defined than the northern parts, with summers being very hot, with average temperatures often exceeding 35 °C (95 °F), and winters relatively cool with average minimum temperatures dipping as low as 5 °C (41 °F), with a few frosty nights.\nWhich part of Australia is coldest?\nLiawenee is the coldest permanently-inhabited place in Australia.\nIs it expensive to live in Australia?\nThe average cost of living in Australia may be higher than most people expect. While most Australian cities are still relatively cheaper than places like New York City, London, or Paris, the country’s vast expanse and remoteness make it an expensive place to live.\nWhy Australia is hot?\nThe reason it is so hot in Australia is that it is summer (almost) down in the southern hemisphere. The earth’s tilt has the southern hemisphere pointed almost directly at the sun during the day… … So southern hemisphere lands are receiving more solar heating. There are actually other places that are hotter.\nIs Australia hotter than India?\nAustralia is hotter than India, especially the northern part. But the country is less populous and the southern part of the country where most of the people live is less hot than India. … Different parts of the country have different types of weather. In Australia, even timezones differ from state to state.\nWhat Australia is famous for?\nAustralia is globally famous for its natural wonders, wide-open spaces, beaches, deserts, “The Bush”, and “The Outback”. Australia is one of the world’s most highly urbanised countries; it’s well known for its attractive mega cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth.\nWhich Australian city has best weather?\nPerth arguably has the best Australia Day weather, experiencing just 8 Australia Day’s of rain since 1900 with an average of 2.9mm of rain falling on these days.

April is now one of the most violent weather months in the region in decades.\nA line of violent thunderstorms - the latest in a deadly series - rolled across the Deep South Wednesday, spawning dozens of tornadoes, razing churches and fire stations, trapping people amid debris, and finally leaving at least 180 people dead, mostly from heavily populated parts of Alabama.\nA storm that also took lives in Georgia, Tennessee, Mississippi, Virginia, and Arkansas continued to slide eastward Thursday toward North Carolina. The system became the latest in a series of unusually powerful storm systems that has marched across the US in the past month, leaving April 2011 as one of the most violent weather months in decades.\nThis particular tornado system is likely to be the deadliest in the US since the April 3-4, 1974, tornado outbreak that killed 318 people from Alabama to Canada. Alabama took the heaviest losses in that event as well, with 77 casualties.\n\"We had a major catastrophic event here in Alabama with the outbreak of numerous long-track tornadoes,\" Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley said Thursday morning in a phone briefing with reporters.\nThanks to a lingering La Niña system in the Pacific that has shifted the pattern of wind flows across the US, Tornado Alley - the tornado-manufacturing stretch of the Western plains - has remained relatively quiet while parts of the Midwest, the mid-South, and the Deep South have taken the brunt of atmospheric turmoil.\n© Dusty Compton/The Tuscaloosa News/APBystanders look at storm damage along 15th Street in Tuscaloosa, Ala., Wednesday, after a strong tornado moved through the city.\nOn Saturday, a conglomeration, or family, of tornadoes lit up North Carolina after spawning twisters in at least a dozen other states. More storm systems have moved through this week, leading to tornadoes mixing with wildfires in west Texas, twisters taking aim at Alabama's most populous cities, and storms taking out, in places, the ability of emergency officials to respond to the havoc.\nOn Tuesday and Wednesday, what some TV meteorologists called a historic line of thunderstorms - weather maps were rife with red - left paths of devastation from Texas to Georgia. Parts of Tuscaloosa, the home of the University of Alabama, were wiped out. The tornado \"cut a path of destruction deep into the heart of the city,\" said Mayor Walter Maddox.\nThe National Weather Service office near Huntsville was briefly shuttered so employees could take cover in a steel room from an approaching storm. Tornadoes also struck the base of Lookout Mountain, the Tennessee tourist destination, felled the historic \"graduation tree\" at Berry College in Georgia, and forced the Tennessee Valley Authority to power down three Alabama nuclear plants.\nThe National Weather Service says it took 137 tornado reports around the South, adding that Alabama saw 66 and Mississippi 38.\nAlabama Gov. Robert Bentley mobilized 1,200 National Guard troops to help search and rescue teams that were in places hampered by power outages and large numbers of downed trees.\nGovernor Bentley pushed back against questions from reporters on Thursday about whether Alabama residents had failed to heed tornado warnings, thus pushing up the casualty toll. \"We were very prepared ... but it was just the force of the storms,\" Bentley said. \"When a [large tornado] hits a largely populated area like Tuscaloosa, you cannot move thousands of people in five minutes. When an F4 or F5 tornado hits, there's not much you can do to change the outcome of that.\"\nPresident Obama declared Alabama a federal disaster area Wednesday.\n\"Our hearts go out to all those who have been affected by this devastation, and we commend the heroic efforts of those who have been working tirelessly to respond to this disaster,\" Mr. Obama said in a statement.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The season that just ended was one of the best on record. There were nine tropical storms, three hurricanes, and none of the hurricanes made landfall in the United States.\nUnfortunately, Gray and Klotzbach predict a doozy of a season for 2010, with as many as 16 tropical storms and six to eight hurricanes. It is possible, they say, that five of those hurricanes could be major. A major hurricane is one with sustained winds of more than 111 miles per hour. The likelihood that these hurricanes will make landfall, too, is higher than usual. “Because we are predicting an above-average hurricane season in 2010, the probability of U.S. and Caribbean major hurricane landfall is estimated to be above the long-term average,” Klotzbach said.\nWhy the increase in tropical storms and hurricanes? The reduced intensity of storms this year was the fault of El Nino. El Nino occurs when water temperatures in the equatorial Pacific Ocean become warmer than usual, changing wind currents around the world. (Warm ocean water makes the air over the water warm as well, and when that air rises, as hot air tends to do, cool air rushes in to take its place, creating wind.) But Klotzbach and Gray expect this year’s El Nino to diminish.\nHowever, last year at this time, Klotzbach and Gray predicted a fairly active hurricane season for 2009 (though they changed their predictions just before the season began). Their predictions last December turned out not to be accurate.\nResidents of South Florida and the Gulf coast, however, may prefer to follow the maxim that it is better to be safe than sorry, and secure any property that they feel strongly that they could not afford to lose, or stand to lose, in a hurricane. One way to prepare for a hurricane is to put property that is valuable or has sentimental value into self-storage. Self-storage units are well-constructed for withstanding hurricanes, as many of them are made out of reinforced concrete. Many self-storage facilities in hurricane-prone areas make special preparations for tropical storms and hurricanes, including having backup generators on site, hurricane impact windows, and covered loading docks. If you are especially concerned, find out whether the self-storage facility that you are considering has made preparations for hurricanes, and whether or not it has withstood other hurricanes in the past.\nAnother way to protect property, especially fragile items, from damage, is to pack them carefully. When packing a self-storage unit, place heavy objects on the ground, and if you need to stack boxes, stack lighter boxes on top. You may want to arrange furniture that is kept in storage flat on the ground, rather than standing dressers and shelves up against a wall. Bookcases and other heavy standing objects can cause damage if they fall. They can also cause injuries, or could block a hurricane survivor’s access to the exit, if anyone happens to be in the self-storage unit at the time of the storm.\nBecause major hurricanes may be followed by storm surges that result in flooding, it is wise to package irreplaceable documents and photos in zip lock bags and waterproof containers. Many people choose to err on the safe side and double-bag their family photos before placing them into a waterproof plastic container. Financial documents and computer files should be backed up and stored in two separate places.\nFor more tips on how to store antiques, art, documents, photos, and other collectibles to protect them from being damaged by hurricanes and tropical storms, visit the Extra Space tip page.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Would the oceans all be frozen? Or would the earth be slightly colder than now? I suspect that Mars receives only about 1/3 the solar radiation that the earth does, so days would be colder-but even Mars gets warm (at the equatorial regions). Anyway, assuming everything being equal-would the earth be in an Ice Age if at Mar’s orbital distance?\nThe semi-major axis of Mars orbit is about half again as far from the Sun as the Earth, which gives it roughly 39% of the luminous output at Earth’s mean radius. It’s hard to say exactly what the climate would be like–climatology is a difficult enough science when we can observe the effects rather than infer their possiblity–but it certainly wouldn’t be able to support life as we know it, and it seems likely that the atmosphere (assuming you’re starting with Earth’s normal composition) would be far more arid, less capable of holding heat.\nIn addition, if we assume that Earth is placed in Mars’ current orbit, you have to account for the increase in variability; the orbit of Mars has an eccentricity over five times greater than that of Earth. Since you’re already farther from the Sun to begin with the variability is of less effect than it would be at Earth orbit, but there would certainly be more variation in what energy impinges upon the Earth.\nThe black body temperature for objects in earth’s and mars’ orbits are -2°F and -81°F respectively.\nThe average surface temperture of the earth is about 59°F, so the earth is about 61° warmer than its equilibrium black body temperature. If that difference holds when the earth is moved out to the position of mars, the average surface temperature would be -20°F.\nI expect the increased snow cover, hence albedo, would eventually cause the average temperature to drop well below that.\nIf the early atmosphere of MOE (Mars Orbit Earth) was heavy in greenhouse gases then. It could be warm enough for liquid water and by extension life. After all Venus is kept hellishly hot by its dense atmosphere.\nFor that matter, I seem to recall that at the equator, the surface temperature of Mars can even still occasionally edge a bit above freezing. And certainly in the past, when Mars had a thicker atmosphere, liquid water was not a stranger to most of its surface.\nWe have all heard the “Goldie- lox” zone to be where Earth orbits now around our sun extending some percentage towards Venus and Mars. It may be only half way towards Venus, but likely overlaps the orbit of Mars when Mars is at Perihelion. Which means the old saying that if we were a fraction closer or further life would not be possible IS WRONG. First of all the statement “a fraction closer or further” is NOT quantified. Mars at perihelion is 1.38 AU which corresponds to 52.5 % of the luminous output Earth receives. Mars, with its thin atmosphere has less of a greenhouse effect than Earth, yet the highest temperature recorded on Mars at perihelion during it’s Summer peaked at 80 deg F at equatorial regions in valleys (45 degrees is more common when at aphelion in the hottest regions, while the South Pole can be -220 F, at distance of 1.67 AU=aphelion). As pointed out in an earlier posting, the black body temperature of an object at Earth’s orbit is 83 degrees warmer than an average Mars orbit, but that does not take Earth’s thicker more greenhouse like atmosphere and surface albedo into account. Earth would definitely enter an ice age, but at the warmest equatorial – desert regions, Earth with it’s stronger greenhouse effect, could still hit in excess of 90 degrees (versus 135 to 140 where it is now). However, as the ice built from the poles southward, the surface albiedo would increase, reflecting more heat and leading eventually to colder temperatures. With less oceans to supply ice, the surface of Earth would be warmer. It’s doubtful permanent ice shelf’s would reach equatorial regions, but possibly down to 25 - 30 degrees North and South of the equator. … Though the climate dynamics would be hard to calculate with any exactness. … weather patterns could help push ice shelfs down to 15-20 degrees North and South of the equator but no-one knows with certainty. Point is, life would still persist, even if Earth was pushed to 1.38- 1.40 AU, though there would be massive extinctions. Better move Mars out a bit too … If you could move Earth, then also reduce its 23 and a half degree tilt to about 5 degrees. This would ensure pleasant equitorial regions for Earth at 1.38 ot 1.4 AU.\nEarth in its present orbit may have frozen over entirely at one point in its history. That would, of course, be more likely if it were farther from the Sun.\nAnne Neville… Yes, some 650 to 680 million yrs ago, there is evidence of a huge glacial period… still not known if it reached near the equator, additionally, the Sun’s output was estimated to be 70 % of what it is today… the Sun’s output luminosity is very slowly increasing over time.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Leeches require moisture to stay alive, and so they usually remain underwater unless it is rainy and wet outside their river and pond homes. It is believed that leeches possess a kind of natural barometer that tells them when a low pressure system is bringing wet weather and they can venture outside to seek victims to feed upon. Merryweather’s contraption worked by placing one leech in each of a series of twelve bottles filled with about an inch and a half of water. The bottles were arranged in a circle, and at the top of each bottle was a wire connected to a bell. When the air pressure was high, the leeches would remain in the water.

At one point near the end of the month, we saw heat indices in the triple digits around the area. It was brutal and lasted for most of that work week without even a breeze for some cool relief. This was true in the Northland and Minnesota in general.\nWhile much cooler temperatures are on the way to usher in the new month of August, I was curious if we would see the beginning of the end of summertime. After all, summer is short-lived in the Northland. To find out the answer, I turned to the Old Farmer's Almanac.\nYou can't always believe what they predict for the month ahead, but I still like to look just for fun. Plus, how far off can they really be in the summertime? With that said, here's what they are forecasting for the month ahead.\nThe Start Of August In The Northland\nWhat can we expect to start the month? We can expect sunshine through the first week of the month, with things starting off on a cooler note for the first few days before turning hot again a few days in.\nWhat About The Middle & End Of The Month?\nFrom the second week of the month through the end of the month, things won't be quite as sunny. We can expect showers and thunderstorms with warm temperatures near the end of the month. Temperatures will get \"very warm\" for the last few days of the month. We better soak in the sunshine while we can.\nHow Much Rain Will We Get?\nIf you made it this far, you know it is a rainy month! We will see just under six inches of rain in our region, which is about two inches more than average. Don't be sad, though. We will also be a few degrees warmer than usual!\nWEIRD WEATHER RECORD: Here's The Odd Record We Keep Breaking In Minnesota\nHow Does The Old Farmer's Almanac Work?\nIf you're curious, the Old Farmer's Almanac makes long-term weather predictions by region. Our \"region\" includes most of Minnesota and the northern half of Wisconsin. However, their exact formula is a secret and they won't give it out! You will have to use your imagination.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The three motorists were struck by a truck after getting out of their vehicles because a sport utility vehicle had rolled over on the Interstate, authorities said.\nTroopers are withholding further information until they notify the victims' relatives.\nIn Oklahoma City, a 30-year-old man was killed after being struck by a car traveling on a wet road, authorities said.\nTree limbs coated with ice cracked and fell on power lines in Hydro, Kingfisher and Tonkawa, said state Emergency Management Department spokeswoman Michelann Ooten.\nOoten said the city of Hydro was without water for at least four hours Wednesday morning because its water treatment plant is powered by electricity. She said the department was prepared to bring water to the town if necessary.\nKingfisher and Tonkawa residents also were without power Wednesday morning, she said.\nMany schools throughout the state were closed Wednesday.\nRoads were slick and hazardous in much of the Panhandle, said a dispatcher with the Oklahoma Highway Patrol in Guymon.\n``People are starting to have some problems, but we haven't had anything drastic yet,'' said the dispatcher, who would not give her name.\nOklahoma City street maintenance crews planned to report at midnight Tuesday to begin spreading salt on city streets. Since the last significant storm, the maintenance department acquired 15 salt spreaders as well as six new trucks and four refurbished snow plows.\nThe National Weather Service issued a winter storm warning for the Panhandle and a winter storm watch for a section of northwestern Oklahoma. By early Wednesday, the freezing line was from Stillwater to Oklahoma City to Chickasha, meteorologist Dave Floyd said.\n``All the precipitation northwest of there is falling as freezing rain, anything south is falling as normal rain,'' he said.\n``Kind of the saving grace right now is that the ground is still pretty warm. The main roadways are still OK, but the bridges and overpasses are icing up.''\nTrees and power lines were beginning to ice over. South of the freezing line, rainfall in the range of two- to three-tenths of an inch had fallen in some areas.\nCold air was to continue moving slowly south into Oklahoma overnight, with temperatures in the mid-20s across northern sections and lower 30s in central areas. Meanwhile, a storm system moving in from the southwestern United States will have an increasing influence across Oklahoma through Wednesday night.\nFloyd said he expects precipitation to fall on and off Wednesday, with rain in southern Oklahoma and freezing rain in the northwestern half of the state.\nThe Oklahoma Department of Agriculture lifted the burn ban for all counties except Texas County because of the rainfall.

The heavy focus this year is on the dangerous effects of climate change. Earth Day is an excellent time to get some insight on what is happening to the world around us.\nHow is climate change affecting people all over the world?\nHigher Temperatures- The five hottest recorded years all happened since 1997. Heat-trapping gases emitted by power plants, automobiles, deforestation and other sources are warming up the planet.\nChanging Landscapes- Higher temperatures and changing weather patterns are forcing trees and plants around the world to move toward polar regions and up mountain slopes. These plants are trying to adjust to the changing climate by moving toward cooler areas. As a result of the plant life making changes, the animals that depend on them will have to as well. This may be problematic due to development in those areas.\nRising Seas- The change in sea level is due to the fact that warmer water takes up more room than colder water. To add insult to injury Melting glaciers are dumping even more fresh water into the oceans. Sea levels have risen between four and eight inches in the past 100 years. Current projections suggest that Its possible sea levels will rise between 4 and 36 inches over the next 100 years. Just to put things into perspective, if sea levels increased to 36 inches every east coast city from Miami to Boston would be swamp!\nStronger Storms- Research indicates that these climate changes will cause hurricanes and tropical storms to become more intense. This means longer lasting, stronger winds, and more damaging to coastal ecosystems.\nUnderstanding these threats and making small changes in our everyday life is curial. Why not start with something small? Go home and Replace your five most frequently used light bulbs with ENERGY STAR® qualified products.

Surf size has remained small, just a couple of feet of leftover east swell at swell magnets both days, biggest north from Sydney. Buoy data is showing an increase in local southerly windswell in the lee of today's change, though there’s nothing really showing at the coast.\nThis week (Dec 9 - 10)\nA small southerly windswell is still possible from today's local fetch but whatever eventuates won’t be high quality and will trend down into Thursday morning.\nAs for new swell sources, the models have slightly delayed the developing trough-cum-low off the South Coast from tonight onwards, so I’m now less confident for a late Thursday pulse. Winds should be light and variable for much of the day - we may see a brief southerly nose into southern regions (generally south of the harbor) around lunchtime but otherwise conditions should be clean. Expect small beaches north from Wollongong, though building SE swells are likely through the afternoon south from the Illawarra.\nFriday looks clean for the entire day, with the delayed developing low now likely to result in a steady westerly outflow north from about Ulladulla. South from here, winds will slowly clock SW and then S’ly (with increasing southerly latitude) and there’s a risk of gales too.\nAs for swell, we’ll see building sideband SE energy from Thursday’s fetch, aimed off the Far South Coast. As it’ll be pointed directly into the southern end of the state, we’ll see the most size here (5-6ft sets) but surf size will taper off as you head north. I’m thinking somewhere in the 3-5ft range from Ulladulla up to the Illawarra, then 3-4ft through southern Sydney, and a little smaller from northern Sydney across the Hunter around 2-3ft.\nConfidence is not high on surf size estimates though, as low pressure systems positioned close to the coast always present a challenge - small deviations in their position can greatly affect surf size, esspecially those not in the direct line of fire.\nRight now, it looks like we could see a southerly fetch develop adjacent to the coastline early Friday which may generate a bigger S’ly swell across all regions late Friday, but the weekend is a much better chance for this right now.\nAlso, as mentioned on Monday, a large sub-tropical low well north-east of New Zealand early this week generated some long range E'ly swell that is expected into Sydney later this week. However, it'll be only small in size and largely undetectable beneath the main SE energy.\nThis weekend (Dec 11 - 12)\nLarge S’ly swells will dominate the weekend as an impressive Tasman Low reaches a peak in strength on Saturday (see below).\nBoth days should offer 5-6ft+ sets at south facing beaches, though Saturday afternoon’s likely to see a period where surf size is a little bigger (closer to 6-8ft), and reliable south swell magnets such as the Hunter should sit somewhere at the hotter end of the spectrum all weekend.\nOf course, beaches not open to the south will be much smaller, but there’ll be more than enough size for every locations to pick up its fair share. Additionally, Saturday will see smaller (though easing) levels of SE swell leftover from Friday, and the weekend will see a plateau of long range E’ly energy from the sub-tropical low in the South Pacific. Only 2-3ft sets are expected from this source though.\nThe main issue this weekend will be winds, which will be fresh at times from the southern quadrant. Most mornings should see moderate SW breezes (even W/SW across a few locations such as the Northern Beaches) but in general expect wobbly conditions at exposed spots, with southern corners and sheltered points offering the best conditions.\nNext week (Dec 13 onwards)\nSo, the Tasman Low is expected to maintain strength through Sunday before gradually easing, which means we’ll see strong though slowly abating surf energy through the start of next week.\nAnd as per the last forecast, Monday is still my pick of the forecast period - surf size will trend down from 4-6ft to 3-5ft at south facing beaches, but it’ll be more S/SE in direction, and local winds will become light and variable.\nExpect smaller surf easing from 3-4ft to 2-3ft by early Tuesday, down to 2ft by the afternoon, with very little energy leftover for Wednesday. The first half of the week should however see clean conditions with generally light variable winds under a weak pressure pattern.\nTuesday and Wednesday also have an unusual swell source on the cards; a long period NE swell generated by a (likely) tropical cyclone expected to spin up in the Coral Sea overnight Friday and into Saturday. The storm track is pretty good (by Coral Sea standards, relative to Southern NSW), however the large travel distance and small diameter of the cyclone means we’ll probably only see flukey sideband energy, maybe some 2ft+ sets at a handful of swell magnets later Tuesday and into Wednesday. It's not a swell source to travel around.\nModel guidance has this tropical cyclone becoming extra-tropical and approaching New Zealand later Tuesday, where there’s a chance for a broader E/NE fetch on its eastern flank to generate useful swell - but I fear it’s likely to move too fast through our swell window to be a real high quality swell producer. Nevertheless, I’ll keep an eye on this system over the next couple of days and will update on Friday.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The city received 38mm rain on Friday night and the figure has overtaken the past record of 37mm that poured last year on March 8. In the last one decade, no single day in March has received so much rain within 24 hours. However, according to an official with the India Meteorological Department, highest ever rainfall record within 24 hours for March is yet to be broken. The same was recorded on March 28, 1981 and the quantity was 61mm. Weathermen say the city continues to receive showers during evening because of the low-pressure area over southeast Arabian sea and Lakshadweep. “On Friday, apart from Bengaluru, rainfall occurred at many places over coastal Karnataka and south interior Karnataka and a few places over north interior Karnataka as well,” said L Ramesh Babu, scientist and director-in-charge, meteorological centre, Bengaluru. He added that Bengalureans can expect a generally cloudy sky with one or two spells of rain or thundershowers on Sunday as well. “Maximum & minimum temperatures are likely to be around 32°C and 20°C respectively,” added Babu. Apart from Bengaluru, good spells of showers were recorded in places like Chintamani of Chikkaballapura district and Haveri town. Other places where chief rainfall accounts were witnessed on Friday include Mulbagal and Rayalpadu in Kolar, Hesaraghatta and Anekal in Bengaluru Urban, Sidlaghatta and Thondebhavi in Chikkaballapura, Thyagarthi in Shivamogga and Sargur in Mysuru.\n- Unseasonal rain may affect agricultre, fisheries sectors\nPANAJI: The prevailing weather conditions in the state may have an adverse impact on fisheries. Owing to the depression in the Arabian Sea, some boats are still stranded at sea. And with the sudden downpour that was mainly witnessed in several parts of the state, farmers are also concerned about the fate of their cashew and mango crops. Scheduled to bear fruit within a few months, the cashew and mango trees have already flowered in orchards across the state. However, with the dull and damp weather, the fear of crop damage is giving farmers sleepless nights. “If the dull weather persists for two to three days, there is a likelihood of fungus infecting cashew and mango flowers,” said a farmer from Bicholim, Rohan Joshi. “Many boats are still stuck on the high seas,” said the director of Mandovi Fishermen Marketing Cooperative Society Limited, Francisco Fernandes. “ There were no casualties or losses reported. However, we are constantly in touch with the fishermen to ascertain their well-being,” he said. At Vasco jetty, fishermen from both Goa and beyond took precautions and kept their vessels anchored. “Besides boats of Goan fishermen, boats from Kerala and Tamil Nadu were also anchored at Vasco jetty following the port warning to fishing vessels. We provided them with drinking water and ice to preserve their fish catch,” said chairman of Goa Fishing Boat Owners Association, Augusto Fernandes. Owing to this development, fish vendors in the local market are skeptical about conducting adequate sales in the coming days.\n- March-past of abrupt showers as parts of Goa get drenched\nPANAJI: The city recorded the highest rainfall of 26.8mm, while Canacona recorded 24.6mm in the last 24 hours due to a depression in an area southeast of the Arabian Sea, as the weather system weakened into a well-marked low pressure area. The city was lashed by showers after midnight on Thursday for more than half an hour, accompanied by lightning and thunder. While Mormugao recorded 10.6mm of rainfall, Mapusa recorded 2.6mm, Valpoi 1.8mm and Ponda 1.0mm. The well-marked pressure area over Lakshadweep and adjoining southeast Arabian Sea also has an associated upper air cyclonic circulation, which is likely to move northwestwards and weaken gradually. But meteorologists at the India Meteorological Department (IMD) expect the condition to persist for at least 24 to 48 hours. As southerly winds are blowing in, they are bringing in lot of moisture. “There are possibilities of isolated rain or thundershowers in the state,” Rahul M, scientist, IMD, Panaji, said. The minimum temperature recorded on Thursday was 22.3C - just a degree above normal. The maximum temperature was 31.8C - almost half a degree below normal. The widespread showers brought relief from the sultry heat, but cashew farmers are worried that the showers may continue. “A brief spell of rain may not cause damage, but if the rain persists, then it may damage the fruit and the flower,” a cashew farmer said.\n- Coast Guard rescues 12 fishers stranded on boat in Arabian Sea\nKanyakumari: The Coast Guard has rescued 12 fishermen on a mechanised fishing boat that was stranded on a rock in the Arabian Sea off Karnataka coast. S Ramesh, 40, of Kurumpanai in Kanyakumari district and 11 others ventured into the sea on his boat -- Natha Fathima -- from Beippur in Kerala on February 28. They were fishing in the Arabian Sea off the Karnataka coast when they got an alert from the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) about high speed winds triggered by a low pressure area in the Indian Ocean. Following the alert, Natha Fathima started to move towards the coast. The boat was about 13 nautical miles off Munneswaram near Garwar in Karnataka when it accidentally drove over a rock and got stuck on Tuesday. Efforts to take the boat back to the sea went in vain. On Wednesday morning, the fishermen contacted a fishing boat that was close by and sought help. The boat tried to pull Natha Fathima off the rock but the rough sea made it impossible. The stranded fishermen then got in touch with the South Asian Fishermen Fraternity (SAFF) who alerted the Coast Guard (CG), the Marine Rescue Coordination Centre, the Kanyakumari district administration and the fisheries department at Chennai. “Meanwhile, the boat slid off the rock to the sea. But its engine fan got damaged and could not be repaired. Coast Guard personnel contacted us and asked for requirements of those on the boat. All of them needed food. Three of them needed medical attention since they were injured when a stove burst. A CG ship reached the fishermen with the supplies,” general secretary of SAFF, A Churchil said. Churchil told TOI that the Coast Guard ship could not tow the boat to the shore. The Coast Guard contacted the fishermen in a mechanised boat -- Elroi -- that was close by and asked them to tow Natha Fathima. Being a wooden boat, Elroi could not tow Natha Fathima that was made of steel and was much heavier. The Coast Guard ship Aburbha-249 then went to the stranded boat’s rescue on Wednesday night. On Thursday morning, the ship towed Natha Fathima to near the entrance of Malpe harbour in Karnataka. The boat was then towed to the harbour by another fishing boat. Eight of the fishermen on the boat hailed from Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu while the rest were from West Bengal. Besides Ramesh, the rescued fishermen have been identified as A Joy, J Samson, W Ajison, A Lijin, P Dickson, I Thatheyus and S Aijith from Kanyakumari and Sriram, Swaraj, Oujith and Haridas from West Bengal.\n- Depression over Arabian Sea affects fishing activities in Uttara Kannada\nKarwar: The depression over the South East Arabian Sea has intensified and affected fishing activities in Uttara Kannada district on Wednesday. Fishermen stayed away from fishing activities in Karwar and other coastal areas of the district, owing to the warning issued by the meteorological department that the weather system was likely to intensify into a deep depression and bring heavy rain in the western coast. Sources in the Meteorological department said that officials have ensured the return of fishermen engaged in deep-sea fishing in Arabian Sea in view of the weather system. The depression is moving towards the North-West direction from Kerala with a speed of 14 kmph. This is the main reason behind the hot and cloudy weather condition in the coastal region of Uttara Kannada, the Met officials said. This would continue to prevail till Thursday, they said. The coastal area of the district had cloudy weather throughout Wednesday and some places witnessed mild rain. According to fishermen, the condition in Arabian Sea is very rough as the depression has intensified in the west coast of India. Many fishing boats which had come from distant places like Tamil Nadu and Kerala are among those that have been anchored at Karwar port. Fishermen said that the unpredictable weather has put them in a tough spot as they have a large quantity of the catch in the boat and if normalcy do not return in the next three-four days, they have to throw it in the sea or sell locally.\n- Depression over southeast Arabian Sea; TN, Kerala to receive heavy rains\nNEW DELHI: The depression over southeast Arabian Sea moved northwestwards with speeds of about 14kmph during the past six hours and it lay centered at 8.30pm on Wednesday over southeast Arabian Sea near latitude 7.50 N and longitude 74.00 E, about 130km southeast of Minicoy, 340km west- southwest of Thiruvanathapuram and 380km north-northeast of Male (Maldives). The depression is likely to move northwestwards and maintain the intensity of depression during next 24 hours. There is low probability for further intensification of the system into deep depression. It is likely to weaken gradually over southeast and adjoining east-central Arabian Sea after 24 hours. The Met department has warned of rain and thundershower at many places during the next two days particularly over south Tamil Nadu. This will be accompanied by heavy rainfall in some isolated places in Kerala. Rainfall at most places with heavy falls at a few places on 14th and at isolated places on March 15 is very likely over Lakshadweep Islands. The Met department also warned of squally winds which could reach speeds of up to 40-50kmph gusting to 60kmph likely over Comorin area and along and off south Tamil Nadu coast during the next 24 hours and 45-55kmph gusting to 65kmph along and off the Kerala coast on Wednesday and 40-50kmph gusting to 60kmph on Thursday. Squally winds with speeds reaching 45-55kmph gusting to 65kmph, is likely over Lakshadweep area and the adjoining southeast Arabian Sea on both the days. The sea will be rough to very rough over Comorin-Maldives area and adjoining sea areas during next 24 hours and over Lakshadweep area and adjoining southeast Arabian Sea off Kerala coast during Wednesday and Thursday. Fishermen have been advised not to venture into sea along and off south Tamil Nadu and Comorin-Maldives area during next 24 hours. Fishermen are also advised not to venture into sea along and off the Kerala coast, Lakshadweep area and adjoining southeast Arabian Sea in the next two days.\n- Swelter relief: Low pressure holds out hope for rain in Hyderabad on March 17 & 18\nHYDERABAD: After the sultry heat conditions, denizens might get some relief as the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), Hyderabad, has predicted light to moderate rainfall and thunder showers during this week across Telangana. According to IMD, Hyderabad, the weather conditions across the state will remain cloudy triggered by a low pressure area in Arabian Sea and the Kerala coast. “On March 17-18, Hyderabad will witness development of thunder and lightning, with possibility of rain or thunderstorm. The low pressure area will convert into depression, which will be moving towards north-west resulting in clouding,” said YK Reddy, in-charge director of IMD, Hyderabad. “When the weather conditions are cloudy, the maximum temperature will be few notches lower than the normal temperature. After the depression concludes, gradual rise in maximum temperature can be expected,” added Reddy. Private weather forecasting agencies predicted that the city shall experience light rainfall on March 16. “Sky is expected to remain partly cloudy. Humidity levels will also increase over Hyderabad and adjoining areas due to inflow of southeasterly winds from the Bay of Bengal,” read the weather report released by Skymet on Monday. Skymet predicts that relief is in sight as a trough is likely to form over Telangana around March 16. “This trough is expected to increase the cloud cover and with this, scattered rain and thunder showers are expected over Hyderabad and its adjoining areas on March 16 and 17,” read the report. According to Telangana State Development Planning Society, with the prevailing easterly to southeasterly wind, maximum temperatures are expected to be 2 to 3 degree Celsius below normal at many places over the state, where temperatures are in the range of 34 to 37 degree Celsius. “Thereafter, it is expected to rise gradually. The minimum temperatures are expected to be 2 to 3 degree Celsius above normal at many places and more than 19 degree Celsius at most places, which are in the range of 20 to 26 degree Celsius,” read the report.\n- Saudi Arabia's King Salman establishes anti-corruption prosecution units\nA report on the state-run Saudi Press Agency said the king's decision came from \"his concern over combating corruption in all its forms aiming to protect the homeland and its resources, maintain public money and protect the integrity of the public employment.\"\n- Maharashtra budget: Rs 450 crore for statues in Mumbai as govt struggles to cut costs\nMUMBAI: Still in the red and struggling to stabilize its revenue earnings against expenditure, the state government has budgeted Rs450 crore for construction of statutes in the city. A total of Rs300 crore has been budgeted for the Shivaji memorial in the Arabian Sea and Rs150 crore for the Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar memorial at Indu Mill, Dadar. The state has allotted the tender for construction of the Rs3,600-crore Shivaji memorial to Larson and Turbo at a cost of Rs2,500 crore plus taxes for the first phase of the project. The work order was issued on February 9. Last year, the government had budgeted Rs100 crore for the statue. Finance minister Sudhir Mungantiwar said the government aims at completing the project in 36 months. “More funds will be made available as per the pace and need of work through a supplementary budget,” he said. The Shapoorji Pallonji Group will build the Ambedkar memorial on the 12-acre plot at Indu Mill at a cost of Rs783 crore. The MMRDA appointed the group, which was the sole bidder, for the project’s execution in December 2017. The plan includes a commemorative stupa, an auditorium, an assembly hall, a museum, a library, a landscaped garden and parking spaces. The memorial will have a350-ft tall bronze statue of Ambedkar.

So while an average Perseid meteor shower will rain down 60 to 90 meteors per hour, there may be double that amount this year.\n“This is one I would watch this year,” said Bill Cooke, lead for NASA’s Meteoroid Environment Office in Huntsville, Alabama.\nThe Perseid meteor shower is considered runner-up on the grandness scale only to the Geminid meteor shower in December.\nBut Cooke said the Perseids are special because they are known for sending showy fireballs streaking through the sky with long trains that may linger for several seconds. Fireballs are brighter than the planet Venus, and a Perseid fireball can light up the ground like a brief spotlight.\n“They can produce some very spectacular meteors,” Cooke said about the Perseids. “Some people say they have a yellow color.”\nWhile the Perseid shower radiates from the bold constellation of monster-slayer and mythical Greek hero Perseus, the meteors are actually debris from the Comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle. The comet orbits the sun in a large cigar-shaped path, with Earth passing through the comet rubble every year in mid-August.\nThe comet sheds debris that can range from the size of a pinhead to a half-dollar, Cooke said. They slam into Earth’s atmosphere at 132,000 mph.\n“With a little luck you’ll see a ‘shooting star’ every minute or so on average,” said Alan MacRobert, senior editor of Sky & Telescope magazine.\nSam Storch, a retired astronomy professor and member of the Astronomical Society of the Palm Beaches, said people shouldn’t be discouraged if they walk out their door and don’t see a meteor right away.\nHe suggests finding a dark spot away from light pollution and with no obstructions such as tall buildings. The moon this year will be waning crescent with only a sliver showing, so its light won’t interfere with seeing a meteor.\n“The thing about the Perseids, they are reliable,” Storch said. “This is one of the ones to see.”\nCox Media Group","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Neptune’s support for the initiative complements its own ambitious target for zero methane emissions by the end of the decade.\nDeveloped by the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative (OGCI), the initiative aims for methane emissions to be “treated as seriously as the oil and gas industry already treats safety: aiming for zero and striving to do what it takes to get there”.\nSignatories to the initiative aim to reach near zero methane emissions from their operated assets by the end of this decade, avoid methane venting and flaring, and report methane emissions annually and transparently. Besides Neptune Energy, signatories to the initiative include bp, Eni, Equinor, ExxonMobil, Repsol, Shell and TotalEnergies, as well as companies and institutions who support its aims including Worley, IPIECA and Wood Mackenzie. Signatories are encouraged to introduce new technologies for methane monitoring, measurement and mitigation, and to support implementation of regulations to tackle methane emissions.\n“We already have one of the lowest methane intensities in the industry at 0.02% and are on track to achieve our own target of zero methane emissions by 2030, so fully support this initiative,” said Neptune Energy’s CEO, Pete Jones. “To achieve our targets, we are deploying a full range of initiatives that include using best available technologies to eliminate routine flaring, upgrading equipment and improving energy efficiency.”\n“We are proud to welcome Neptune Energy to the Aiming for Zero Methane Emissions Initiative. Recognizing that eliminating methane emissions from the oil and gas industry represents one of the best short-term ways of addressing climate change, I encourage others to join this ambitious effort to eliminate the oil and gas industry’s methane footprint by 2030,” added OGCI Chairman, Bob Dudley.\nThe focus on introducing new technologies to monitor and mitigate methane emission builds on Neptune’s work with the Environmental Defense Fund to deploy advanced drone technologies to measure methane emissions at Neptune’s operated Cygnus platform in the UK North Sea. It also complements the company’s support of the Oil and Gas Methane Partnership and the World Bank’s Zero Routine Flaring by 2030 initiative.\nTo contact the author, email email@example.com\nWHAT DO YOU THINK?\nGenerated by readers, the comments included herein do not reflect the views and opinions of Rigzone.

Parts of Antarctica routinely have temperatures 50 degrees below zero. In other parts of the world, floods kill hundreds of people. In some places, it barely rains, even over the course of a decade.\nWhat makes a place uninhabitable? No food. No relief from deadly heat. Cold that can damage the skin in minutes. We set out to find the answer. While any answer has to be somewhat subjective, there are areas of the world so hostile to humans that people can just barely live in them at all. We looked at one where temperatures can be fatal.\nUsing data from the Global Historical Climate Network (GHCN), 24/7 Wall St. has identified the hottest inhabited place on earth. Places we examine were ranked based on the average year-round temperature. Only places that are currently inhabited were included.\nThe cities we looked at to find the hottest span the Middle East, Africa and South America. Several of these areas have had at least one month in the past 10 years where the average temperature was above 100 degrees.\nTo determine the hottest inhabited place on Earth, 24/7 Wall St. reviewed average temperature data from the GHCN (Version 4) of the National Centers for Environmental Information of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Weather stations were ranked based on the average year-round temperature from 2011 to 2020. Only places with at least five years of data were considered. Data used to determine the hottest month also came from the GHCN and are for the years 2011 to 2020.\nThe hottest inhabited place on earth is Abéché, Chad. Here are the details:\n- Average year-round temperature: 90.0° F\n- Hottest average month: May (99.3° F average)\n- Hottest month in past decade: May 2020 (100.7° F average)\n- Elevation at nearest weather station: 1,801 feet","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The tide level was considered in making the simulation.\nStorm surges with heights .63 meters were also expected in coastal communities in Maguindanao and Negros Oriental.\nStorm surges as high as seven meters swept communities in Leyte when super typhoon Yolanda struck last Nov. 8, killing more than 6,200 people.\nNedz Saletrero, weather specialist at Pagasa Mactan, Cebu Station, said Domeng is expected to make landfall in Surigao del Sur by Thursday.\n“But there’s still a possibility it will weaken into a low- pressure area after making landfall,” she said in a phone interview.\nAccording to Pagasa’s 5 p.m. weather forecast, people in Central Visayas, including Cebu, can expect cloudy skies with scattered rains and thunderstorms today.\nSaletrero said the region will continue to have cloudy skies until Thursday, with light to moderate rains expected on Friday and Saturday.\nSaletrero advised the people not to easily believe in text messages that aim to spread panic, saying she received one that warned of a typhoon stronger than Yolanda to hit Cebu and Bohol.\n“While it’s good to prepare, let’s avoid sending text messages that can cause panic.\nOne may verify these warnings with us. Our office is open 24 hours,” she said.\nPagasa earlier forecast zero to one tropical storm for April. Last March 26, it announced the end of the northeast monsoon, which signaled the arrival of the hot and dry season or summer.\nThe PDRRM Council convened yesterday to get updates about Domeng and learned from Pagasa Mactan weather bureau chief Oscar Tabada that it would probably hit southern Cebu by Thursday.\nTask Force Paglig-on head Baltazar Tribunalo said that Tabada told them Domeng is not as strong as Yolanda was, but may bring more rains.\n“Sa pagkakaron, bisa’g gamay di na ta mokumpyansa (We will not let our guard down, even if it’s a minor storm),” Tribunalo said.\nTribunalo will serve as the PDRRM officer in May, after Cebu Gov. Hilario Davide III appointed him to replace Neil Angelo Sanchez, who resigned last March.\nDavide, who heads the PDRMM Council, said the Capitol has been sending updates about the tropical storm (which later weakened to a tropical depression) to every local government unit.\nHe said he was confident that after Yolanda, the slightest information about a typhoon heading for Cebu would compel the municipalities to get ready.\nFor his part, Mayor Michael Rama met yesterday with the Local Disaster Risk Reduction and Management (LDRRMC), Cebu City Hall officials, the Cebu Contractors Association, the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) and the weather bureau to discuss the preparations.\nRama said he has asked DPWH to make sure that all its civil works for its ongoing road projects will not clog the drainage systems, in order to prevent floods.\n“They should be vigilant,” he said.\nThe mayor also told the LDRRMC to operate a command center starting today at City Hall, so that emergencies such as landslides and flash floods will be monitored and immediately addressed.\nTo augment the personnel of LDRRMC, Councilor Philip Zafra, who is the president of the Association of Barangay Councils, directed all barangays to activate their disaster response teams.\nHe has also instructed them to set up a command center in their villages starting yesterday until Thursday.\nAs for the contractors, Councilor Dave Tumulak said the City has asked them to lend their equipment in case there will be emergencies in the urban barangays.\nThe equipment of the Department of Engineering and Public Works will be deployed to the mountain villages, he said.\nIn his regular news conference yesterday, Mayor Rama said that while Domeng is not that strong, the City should be prepared for the weather disturbance, as it will bring rain that might cause floods or landslides.\nPublished in the Sun.Star Cebu newspaper on April 08, 2014.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The storm was expected to hit land near Corpus Christi, Texas, around 9 p.m. CDT (0200 GMT) and then dump over 3 feet (90 cm) of rain on the Texas coast and parts of Louisiana as it lingers for days.\nThe storm was about 35 miles (56 km) off Corpus Christi and packing winds of 130 miles per hour (215 km per hour), the NHC said.\nWhile thousands fled the expected devastating flooding and destruction, many residents defied mandatory evacuation orders and stocked up on food, fuel and sandbags.\n\"We’re suggesting if people are going to stay here, mark their arm with a Sharpie pen with their name and Social Security number,\" Rockport Mayor Pro Tem Patrick Rios told reporters Friday, according to media reports. \"We hate to talk about things like that. It's not something we like to do but it’s the reality. People don’t listen.\"\nAs many as 5.8 million people were believed to be in the storm's path, as well as the heart of America's oil refining operations. The storm's impact on refineries has already pushed up gasoline prices.\nAs a Category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson scale, Harvey could uproot trees, destroy homes and disrupt utilities for days. If it maintains its intensity, it would be the first major hurricane to hit the mainland United States since Hurricane Wilma struck Florida in 2005.\nIn Corpus Christi, a city of 320,000 under voluntary evacuation, strengthening winds buffeted the few trucks and cars that continued to circulate on the streets. The storm toppled wooden roadwork signs and littered the streets with pieces of palm trees as white caps rocked sailboats in their docks.\nAbout 85 miles (137 km) north in Victoria, Mayor Paul Polasek told CNN he estimated that 60 percent to 65 percent of the town’s 65,000 residents defied the mandatory evacuation order.\nJose Rengel, a 47-year-old who works in construction, said he was one of the few people in Jamaica Beach in Galveston that did not heed a voluntary evacuation order.\n“All the shops are empty,” he said as the sky turned black and rain fell. “It’s like a tornado went in and swept everything up.”\nWith the hurricane bearing down on the Texas coast, at least three cruise ships operated by Carnival Corp with thousands of passengers aboard were forced to change their plans to sail for the Port of Galveston.\nTwo of them headed New Orleans to pick up fresh supplies, while the third delayed its departure from Cozumel, Mexico.\nThe NHC's latest tracking model shows the storm sitting southwest of Houston for more than a day, giving the nation's fourth most populous city a double dose of rain and wind.\n\"Life-threatening and devastating flooding expected near the coast due to heavy rainfall and storm surge,\" the NHC said.\nUS President Donald Trump, facing the first large-scale natural disaster of his presidency, on Friday tweeted: \"I am closely watching the path and doings of Hurricane Harvey ... BE SAFE!\" Earlier, a White House official said the president was considering a request to issue an emergency declaration, providing federal disaster relief.\nLouisiana and Texas declared states of disaster, authorizing the use of state resources to prepare.\nThe city of Houston warned residents of flooding from close to 20 inches (60 cm) of rain over several days.\nHouston Mayor Sylvester Turner advised city residents not to leave en masse, saying \"no evacuation orders have been issued for the city.\" Chaotic traffic from a rushed evacuation in 2005 with Hurricane Rita proved tragic. \"Calm and care!\" he said in a tweet.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Here are 12 strange weather features of Sandy:\n1. SIZE: With tropical-storm-force winds that extended for 1,000 miles, Sandy was the largest Atlantic system on record. However, meteorologists only started recording this measurement for comparison in 1988.\n2. STORM SURGE: Sandy set historical maximum recorded water levels at the Battery in New York, Kings Point, N.Y.; Bergen Point, N.Y., Sandy Hook, N.J., Bridgeport, Conn., and New Haven Conn., according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.\n3. SNOW: This is the first time the National Hurricane Center ever listed snow or blizzard in their warnings. Three feet of snow fell in West Virginia.\n4. GREAT LAKES: It is unusual for 20-foot waves, large surges and tropical-force winds to be recorded in the Great Lakes for a coastal tropical storm, but it happened with Sandy.\n5. ENERGY: NOAA's Hurricane Research Division has an experimental program that measures integrated energy of a storm's surge and waves on a 0 to 6.0 scale. Sandy reached 5.8, passing Katrina as the highest recorded so far.\n6. PRESSURE: A more established measurement of storm strength is barometric pressure, with the lower the pressure the stronger the storm. Sandy hit a low pressure of 945.5 mb in Atlantic City, which some federal agencies called the lowest pressure recorded north of the Mason-Dixon line in the United States. The National Hurricane Center says the 1938 Great New England Hurricane, when reanalyzed, was slightly lower, but it was never recorded that low at the time.\n7. FORECAST: Computer models and forecasters saw Sandy coming for more than a week, even talking of a New York-area landfall — an unusually accurate forecast.\n8. TURN WEST: It was the first time in modern recorded history that a storm took a sharp turn to the west and hit New Jersey. A scientific study said it was a once-in-700-years track.\n9. LANDFALL REPEAT: Sandy hit land in the very same town, Brigantine, N.J., as Irene did the year before (but Irene came from the south, a more common direction).\n10. FUEL: For a while, Sandy was getting much of its fuel and power from the top of the system, which is more typical of a winter storm. Hurricanes tend to get their power from the warm water below.\n11. MISPLACED WINDS: Sandy's strongest winds at one point weren't in its eye but 100 miles west of its center, which meteorologists said is quite strange.\n12. NOTABLE S-NAMED STORM: This is only the second tropical system starting with an \"S'' to have its name retired, an indication of how unusual it is to have potent late season storms and how busy 2012 was for Atlantic storms.\nCopyright 2013 The Associated Press.

Or at least that is what we would conclude if we swallowed the guff trotted out by the Government appointed Sir Roger Stern, the latest recruit to the \"We're all doomed\" global warming hysteria gang.\nAccording to Sir Roger, global warming could shrink the global economy by 20%. But taking action now would cost just 1% of global gross domestic product, the 700-page study says. Tony Blair, responding to what his Puppet says informs us that scientific evidence of global warming was \"overwhelming\" and its consequences \"disastrous\". According to David Milliband, the \"debate\" on global warming is OVER, and the only way forward is...to RAISE taxes! LOL - what a nonsense this all is. I enjoyed Melanie Phillips in the Mail today exposing Stern's fraud...\nAs the distinguished American meteorologist Professor Richard Lindzen observed last weekend, the computer modelling performed at the Hadley Centre, one of Britain’s most vociferous proponents of man-made climate change, was seriously at odds with the actual warming that was taking place.\nThe facts are that the rise in temperature over the past century, 0.6C (plus or minus 0.2C), is unexceptional; and that clouds and water vapour are far more significant presences in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide.\nYet this is an issue where ideology is simply driving out evidence. Sir Nicholas will apparently highlight the threat of catastrophic rises in sea level. But according to the IPCC, the seas are not rising. Although they were higher in the last century than in the previous one, it says in its Third Scientific Report: ‘No significant acceleration in the rate of sea-level rise during the 20th century has been detected.’\nAttributing global warming to anthropogenic activity is just another scam for lefties to CRANK up your taxes, to try and limit where you can travel, and to punish you for driving a car bigger than a kettle on wheels. Contrary to Blair, Milliband and Stern, the DEBATE is just starting, and the apostles for global apocalypse need to find some science to back up their wild claims.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Eyewitnesses say it was seen all the way from Michigan to Tennessee.\nHowever, it wasn’t a stray meteorite falling into the Earth’s orbit. Rather, astronomer Jonathan McDowell posited on Twitter that the sightings were of a Russian satellite, Kosmos-2551.\nTurns out, he was right. It was in fact the Kosmos-2551, which had been launched on September 9 but failed to make it into orbit. The blaze lasted for almost a minute, which was another sign that the object likely wasn’t a meteorite.\nAccording to CNET, meteors entering the Earth are usually smaller in size, leading them to burn up more quickly in the atmosphere. A satellite would be much larger, taking a longer time for them to fully disintegrate, which is why eyewitnesses saw the fireball for nearly a minute.\nDespite the satellite seeming as if it was crashing into the ground, it was still quite a distance from even the tallest spectator. McDowell said that the fireball had actually been at an altitude of about 40 miles, so it wasn’t likely to hit anyone in the area.\nTake a look at the satellite blazing across the sky below.\n[via CNET, cover image via American Meteor Society]\nMore related news\nAlso check out these recent news","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It was derived from TIGER data, and it precisely matches the Texas Outline, Texas Counties and the TCEQ Service Regions layers. Nonattainment is an area that has not achieved compliance with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS). These nonattainment counties were designated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). They are designated based on their air quality monitoring data. Near nonattainment means an area is very close to falling into non compliance with the NAAQS.

After a series of expert consultations, the foundation set up the China Environmental Management Program (CEMP).\nIntegrating PM2.5 into China’s new air quality standard\nWhen CEMP was established, China’s Ambient Air Quality Standard was weaker than its international counterparts. It covered pollutants such as PM10, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide—but not the highly hazardous PM2.5, particulate matter of 2.5 micrometers or less in diameter.\nCEMP supported a study by the China Research Academy of Environmental Sciences (CRAES) on improving air quality standards and organized workshops on developing standards for PM2.5 and ozone. CRAES was the right partner: It had the strongest capacity, housed the Environmental Standards Institute, which drafts all of China’s environmental standards, and was affiliated with the Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP) and therefore in close proximity to key decision-makers.\nCEMP also supported Peking University’s College of Environmental Sciences and Engineering to perform an economic analysis of the health impacts of PM2.5 in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area, and brought in international experts—including Catherine Witherspoon, former executive officer of the California Air Resources Board—to offer advice on revising the standard. We also supported the Global Village of Beijing, an organization with experience in providing sustainable energy education to Chinese journalists, which held a media and NGO training session on PM2.5.\nMeanwhile, air pollution continued to get worse. The U.S. Embassy in Beijing began publishing air quality data and the media began to more aggressively report on the issue. Public outrage grew.\nIn February 2012, the State Council of China adopted a revised standard, which reflected many of the specific policy recommendations of Energy Foundation China-supported international experts—and PM2.5 became a mandatory standard for the first time.\nAdvocating for regional air pollution prevention and control\nAs CEMP moved forward with its work, it found that the \"air basin\" concept and regional air quality management in Western countries hadn't gained serious attention in China. Yet regional and compound air pollution had become two of China’s most prominent environmental challenges.\nCEMP supported Tsinghua and Renmin universities, the MEP-affiliated Chinese Academy for Environmental Planning (CAEP), and other institutions in research to help familiarize China’s air quality community with regional air pollution prevention and control practices. Recognizing that early engagement and buy-in from policymakers would be important, CEMP also signed a memorandum of understanding with MEP in 2009 to support this effort.\nIn 2010, the State Council released the Guidance for Promoting Joint Air Pollution Prevention and Control and Improving Regional Air Quality. Endorsed by nine ministries and government departments, including MEP, the document provided guiding principles for promoting regional joint air-pollution prevention and control. It also identified the regions of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, the Yangtze River Delta, and the Pearl River Delta as key air-pollution prevention and control areas. This new and important way of conceptualizing China’s air pollution challenge was then also reflected in the 12th Five-year Plan for Air Pollution Prevention for Key Regions jointly released by MEP, the Ministry of Finance, and the National Development and Reform Commission in 2012, and the Action Plan for Air Pollution Prevention and Control released by the State Council in September 2013.\nThe Guidance was also the first high-level government policy to propose piloting a \"coal cap\" in specific regions. The follow-on 2013 Action Plan for Air Pollution Prevention and Control identified targets for regional coal caps. For example, by 2017 the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei area, the Yangtze River Delta and the Pearl River Delta must report decreases in coal consumption.\nPromoting the third revision to the Law on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution\nThe most important part of the solution to China’s air quality problem is putting in place a strong legal framework.\nWith the third amendment of China’s Law on the Prevention and Control of Atmospheric Pollution now under way, CEMP is working to ensure the law has teeth. In 2009, CEMP supported the Natural Resources Defense Council, the Regulatory Assistance Project, and other organizations in a review of international air pollution legislation, which led to the report, Amending China’s Air Law: Recommendations from the International Experience. CEMP helped get the report to policymakers, who are now using it as a reference in the amendment process.\nWhile building the case for a stronger national-level law, CEMP realized it could also work to revise local air-quality regulations. In 2011, CEMP joined hands with the Beijing Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau, supporting grantee Beijing Municipal Academy of Environmental Sciences’ in suggesting revisions to the Beijing Regulation on Air Pollution Control. In March 2014, a revision was issued, significantly strengthening the penalties for non-compliance and repeated violations.\nClean Air Alliance of China and Blue Sky Defense Fund\nThe Chinese government has low capacity in air pollution prevention and control, so it still relies on outside expertise for support. To grow the field of air quality specialists, CEMP in 2013 provided seed funding for the Clean Air Alliance of China (CAAC), which brings together China’s core air quality research institutes. CAAC facilitates the transfer of scientific knowledge to policymakers on air pollution prevention and control, helps to design policy implementation tools, and provides technical support to decision-makers.\nCEMP also invests in the Institute of Public & Environmental Affairs (IPE), an independent Chinese environmental NGO, to create an air quality information transparency index and the Blue Sky Roadmap, which discloses air quality and pollution source information. The foundation worked with the SEE Foundation—China’s largest private environmental foundation focused on supporting local environmental NGOs—on initiating a fund to bring more domestic NGOs into air-pollution prevention and control efforts. In September 2014, the Alibaba Foundation and other funders, such as the Rockefeller Brothers Fund and Oak Foundation, also joined the fund.\nChina’s air quality challenge is daunting. It involves a wide variety of factors and links together policy areas that in the past have been addressed separately. Everyone is looking forward to the day when China’s blue skies return. CEMP is helping to create the building blocks for this to happen.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Lightning-producing thunderstorms can occur at any time, but are most likely from July through mid-September. Storms can trap boaters on the water too far from shore to seek safe shelter, placing them at risk of being struck by lightning.\nEvery year, an average of 58 people die in the U.S. from lightning strikes and another 300 to 500 are injured, according to the National Weather Service website. Lightning poses a serious risk to boaters. Usually the tallest object on an open body of water, boats are apt to attract lightning during a storm. Tall-masted sailboats are particularly vulnerable. A direct lightning strike can severely damage or destroy a boat, cause serious onboard fires, overload electronic and navigation equipment, and injure, even kill, passengers.\nTo stay safe while boating, remember the slogan: “If you can see it, flee it; if you can hear it, clear it.” At the first sign of a developing thunderstorm, boaters should head for shore and seek shelter in a building or car. Lightning can travel up to 10 miles from storm centers. A blue sky overhead is no guarantee that danger isn’t lurking. Many lightning deaths occur ahead of storm systems before rain reaches the area.\nFollow the 30-30 rule to decrease your risk of being struck by lightening:\n- When you see a flash of lightening, start counting until you hear thunder. If the count is 30 seconds or less, lightning is close enough to strike.\n- Wait 30 minutes after the last lightning flash before leaving shelter to be certain the danger is gone. Half of all lightning deaths occur after a storm passes.\nShare this with friends:\nLike what you've just read?

The city said operations will resume in full scale after plowing has been “substantially completed.”\nThe city said it has deployed its full fleet of snow-clearing vehicles and equipment in response to the wintry weather Thursday, which includes 600 snow plows, 360 sidewalk plows and 200 salt trucks.\nOn Wednesday night, city councillors pressed city staff for answers about why it’s taken weeks to deal with the snow from the historic storm that hit Toronto two weeks ago.

The high frequency of these claims cast the matter as fact, and paint a grave picture of the problem.\nYet, professors who are experts in climate science say they believe that this headline may inspire hastily drawn conclusions. Moreover, the doom and gloom with which it is presented fails to put Earth’s temperature changes in context, say these climate scientists — considered by scholars who tout extreme global warming scenarios as climate skeptics.\n“‘2016 was the warmest year on record’ implies that the earth has never been this warm…ever,” David Legates, associate professor of geography at the University of Delaware, told The College Fix via email.\n“The ‘record’ happens to start in the mid-1800s — right about the time that we were emerging from the Little Ice Age…probably the coldest period since the demise of the last ice age some 22,000 years ago.

So it is useful to have such apps on your phone when you venture outdoors.\nUntil Apple acquired it, Dark Sky was at the top of the Android weather app list. It is a great weather forecast app that consists of great features and clean design. It was developed for both iOS and Android. But after Apple’s acquisition, it has been killed for Android. Now you are wondering which is the best alternative Android app for Dark Sky, aren’t you? Don’t worry. Here we are presenting the best of the collection for you.\nBest Weather Apps for Android in 2022\nThough you can find a lot of weather apps in Google Play Store, most of them do not have all the features that Dark Sky has. Moreover, they are poorly designed as well as full of ads. So replacing Dark Sky is somewhat difficult. Anyway, here are some of the best alternative apps for you to try.\nAccording to our recommendation, Today Weather will be the best alternative for Dark Sky. It has a clean and dark user interface. You can see the current weather condition at the top of the screen. Below that, there is an hourly weather forecast for the next 24 hours. Moreover, you can see the details on “feels like” temperature, humidity, UV index, visibility, dew point, and pressure. You have to scroll down to the page to see the weekly weather forecast. Apart from these details, you can view below current weather details also.\n- Chance of precipitation\n- Air quality index\n- Pollen count\n- Sunrise and sunset times\n- Moon phase\nIf you do not want any of the above widgets, you can easily turn them off by going to the Settings menu of the app.\nToday Weather uses multiple sources to provide weather information such as Dark Sky, Yr.no, and AccuWeather. But the speciality here is that you can select your preferred source for information. Moreover, it allows you to change units also. Before that, Today Weather will not forget to greet you by your own name. So user-friendliness is also admirable. Further, it will notify you daily about incoming weather conditions by sending notifications and alerts.\nThere are several subscription plans for Today Weather. You can pay $2.99 for one year or $1.59 for six months. If not, you can also have the “forever” option only for $6.49. The free version is also available for you if you are ok with popup ads.\nIf you are addicted to the up-to-the-minute precipitation forecast feature of Dark Sky, then the best alternative weather app for you will be Accuweather. Because AccuWeather offers you a very similar forecasting service with its feature called MinuteCast for the next 2 hours. It will tell you the time when precipitation might happen based on your location precisely. Further, it will divide precipitation into types and show the intensity of each of them separately.\nMoreover, you can find multiple other tabs for viewing hourly and daily weather forecasts, radar, and even news. Apart from hourly and daily forecasts, it also provides a 15-day forecast, which allows you to integrate it with your calendar. You can find a pollen count also in AccuWeather. But the overall design of AccuWeather is not satisfying.\nAccuWeather’s location coverage is admirable. It is more than 3 million in number. It also consists of an alert system that notifies incoming severe weather conditions.\nThe free version of AccuWeather is available. But it is full of ads. You can remove ads by buying it for $4.\nOverdrop is one of the great apps that has been successful in copying the simple design philosophy of Dark Sky.\nThis is a single-page app. At the top of the page, current weather conditions are displayed with attractive animation. Below that, you can see the temperature “feels like” temperature, precipitation, wind speed, and hourly weather forecast for the next 24 hours, including temperature, wind, and rain. The weekly weather forecast is at the bottom of the page. Unfortunately, you can not find radar in Overdrop. But it has an excellent user interface design.\nYou can enjoy Overdrop freely with ads. To get rid of these ads, you have to pay $2.19 per year or have a lifetime license for $7.49.\nHello Weather’s clean interface helps to keep all the stuff very simple. You can see the current weather condition in front and center of the screen. An hourly weather forecast will be directly underneath the current condition. At the bottom of the screen, there will be a weekly weather forecast. Further, you can view more information for each section by swiping back and forth.\nThere are separate tabs for radar, locations, and settings. Currently, Hello Weather is using Dark Sky as the default data source. But they have already announced that they will move to another data source before the Dark Sky API stops its support.\nBut when any of the weather conditions change, you will not be notified. This is the biggest drawback of this app.\nYou can use Hello Weather freely with popup ads or use it without ads for $4.99 per year.\nIf you are looking for a free alternative app with a great design and without any popup ads, then Geometric Weather will be the perfect choice for you. From top to bottom, you will see the current weather condition, daily forecast, hourly forecast, allergen details, sunrise and sunset times, and much more respectively on one page. It uses Accuweather as its data source.\nThe app will notify you about incoming weather conditions by sending notifications. If you do not like its light mode, then you can turn on its dark mode.\nThough this app does not contain the radar feature, its overall performance is good. If you are not willing to pay, then this app will be the best choice to try because it is totally free as well as open-source.\nIf you do not care about the app’s interface, but only the data it provides, then Weather Underground will be a solid option for you. App’s design is not pleasant. But you can view the information about the current weather condition, radar, daily weather forecast, hourly weather forecast, air quality as well as sunrise and sunset times on a single page. It collects data from personal as well as amateur weather stations to provide you with accurate forecasts. This network consists of more than 30,000 weather stations.\nWith the Crowd reporting feature, you can verify reported forecasts. Other features you can have with Weather Underground are detailed weather maps, severe weather alerts, the hourly weather forecast for the next 10 days, and more.\nThe free version contains a lot of ads. But you can buy this app for $4/month or $20/year without ads.\nDo you love jokes? Then this app is for you. Carrot Weather is one of the fun weather apps in Google Play Store due to its weather-related jokes. There are four options for “personality” settings. They are “Friendly”, “Snarky”, “Homicidal” and “Overkill“. You can change the setting as you want anytime. But its UI is pretty basic. You can see the current temperature and hourly as well as a weekly weather forecast on the homepage. You can find a separate weather alert tab. If you want to play a game, then there will be a built-in game based on geography for you to enjoy.\nCarrot Weather is freely available in the Play Store. But to get rid of the ads, you have to pay $3.99 yearly or $1 monthly.\nShadow Weather’s UI is most similar to the Dark Sky. It shows the current weather condition, the weather forecast for the next hour, hourly weather forecast as well as a weekly weather forecast on the main app page. Apart from these features, “Interactive Radar” and “Lightning Tracker” features are also available with Shadow Weather.\nThis app is freely available with ads. If you watch a video, then the premium license that costs $5 per year will be unlocked for 24 hours. Moreover, to have the radar feature, you should have a premium license.\nThe Weather Channel (TWC) shows you meteorological data on an hourly, daily, and weekly basis. Ten-day weather forecast also available with the app. Further, it shows radar data using an interactive map. The social sharing feature allows you to upload images, videos, and tweets. Other features that TWC offers are “feels like” temperature, rain alerts in real-time, and a feature to track flu risks as well as seasonal allergies. Now, it can even track COVID-19 cases.\nTWC free app contains ads. Upgrade it to premium for $10/year or $1/month to get rid of ads.\n1Weather consists of a large number of customization options and twelve weather widgets. It shows you current weather conditions and forecasts on an hourly, 10 days, and 12 weeks basis. Apart from forecasts, it provides you radar maps, notifications as well as severe weather alerts.\nSometimes the app will not be updated immediately when you reopen it. But the overall performance of the app is good. If you want a weather app with wonderful widgets at no cost, then 1Weather is the ideal solution for you.\nYahoo Weather is for those who are looking for a pretty and practical weather app. Its user interface enables you to quickly check weather information of several locations by scrolling side to side. Further, it shows images of your current location based on the day, time, and weather conditions. You can view 5-day weather forecasts and heat, radar, and satellite maps. Its clean and concise UI enhances its user-friendliness, making it an everyday app.\nThis app also can be freely downloaded from Google Play Store.\nThough most weather apps have built-in radar features with them, RadarScope’s radar feature is more advanced than the rest of the competitors. So if you want to use a radar app that professional meteorologists, as well as storm chasers, use and want to track weather patterns, then install RadarScope on your Android device. But this app is not free. You have to pay $9.99.\nRadarScope uses Nexrad Level 3 data that collects from radar stations. You can find settings and options for fine-tuning the view and displaying velocity, reflectivity, and much more. Apart from that, you can find a severe weather alert system in this app.\nThis app also consists of built-in widgets. Moreover, it allows you to customize the appearance of the app. So if you are looking for a free weather app with customizable layouts, then this is the ideal solution for you.\nThe admirable feature of Weather Live is that it shows you a matching image with a weather report to give you a better idea about the weather that you can expect. It provides you a lot of details like current weather conditions including “feels like” temperature, hourly as well as weekly weather forecasts, precipitation, sunrise/sunset times, and much more.\nIf a weather condition is gradually increasing to a severe level and you want to track it, then WeatherBug is the ideal app for you.\nYou can have many features with the free download. Some of them are listed below.\n- Doppler radar for locations in North America\n- Hurricane forecasts\n- Spark lightning alerts\n- Air quality info\n- Pollen count\n- Current weather forecast\n- Hourly weather forecast\n- 10-day weather forecast\nWhen forecasting weather conditions, WeatherBug gives you hyperlocal conditions in real-time because it collects data from satellites, tracking stations, and weather services.\nGoogle has its own weather app and you can access it by searching “weather” in Google Assistant or Google Chrome app. It is totally free and ad-free. You will see accurate weather information on a nice user interface and you can even create a shortcut on your phone’s home screen.\nWhat Kind of Security Issues Weather Apps Can Cause?\nThough weather apps help you to plan your day as well as your whole week, keep in mind they are third-party apps. So they can pose privacy risks because they collect your location data to function. They may even ask for permissions that they do not really need. Some popular weather apps, including Weather Channel, Weatherbug, Weather Forecast, and AccuWeather have been accused of selling your location data to third-party advertisers.\nSo it is always better to use built-in weather apps rather than trusting third-parties.\nWe have given you 15 alternative apps for Dark Sky. You can select the best one according to your need. If we have missed any other great app, then comment them below. Do not forget to let us know your choice among them too.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Orionids are so-called because the point they appear to come from, called the radiant, lies in the constellation Orion, but they can be seen over a large area of the sky. Orionids are an annual meteor shower which last approximately one week in late October. In some years, meteors may occur at rates of 50–70 per hour.\nMeteor showers first designated \"shooting stars\" were connected to comets in the 1800s. E.C. Herrick made an observation in 1839 and 1840 about the activity present in the October night skies. A. S. Herschel produced the first documented record that gave accurate forecasts for the next meteor shower. The Orionid meteor shower is produced by the well known Halley's Comet, which was named after the astronomer Edmund Halley and last passed through the inner solar system in 1986 on its 75- to 76-year orbit. When the comet passes through the solar system, the sun sublimates some of the ice, allowing rock particles to break away from the comet. These particles continue on the comet's trajectory and appear as meteors (\"falling stars\") when they pass through Earth's upper atmosphere. Halley's comet is also responsible for creating the Eta Aquariids, which occur each May.\n|Year||Activity Date Range||Peak Date||ZHRmax|\n|1981||October 18–21||October 23||20|\n|1984||October 21–24||October 21–24||(flat maximum)|\n|2006||October 2 — November 7||October 21–24||23 with peaks at 67|\n|2007||October 20–24||October 21 (predicted)||70|\n|2008||October 15–29||October 20–22 (predicted)||39|\n|2009||October 18–25 ||October 22||45|\n|2012||October 2 — November 7||October 20 and October 23||43|\n|2014||October 2 — November 7||October 21||20?|\n|2015||October 2 — November 7||October 20-21||N/A|\n* This meteor shower may give double peaks as well as plateaus, and time periods of flat maxima lasting several days.\nMeteor shower and location\nThe radiant of the Orionids is located between the constellations Orion and Gemini (in the south-eastern sky before dawn, as viewed from mid-northern latitudes. The most active time of the meteor shower was stated by Telegraph.uk.co to be in the early morning of October 21, 2009 6 a.m. Eastern Standard Time in the United States or 11 a.m. in the United Kingdom. Tweets and user news articles were shared on Social networking and micro-blogging services such as Twitter and Yahoo! Buzz. Photos and videos of the event were posted on photo and video sharing websites such as YouTube and Flickr. Universe Today reported that the meteor shower arrived at 140,000 miles (230,000 km) per hour on the morning of the 21 when showing was predicted to be at its height, however compared to previous showers in years past, the trail of 2009 appeared narrower without branching out. Cooke, found that the originating points of 30 meteors were from within a very small area of the Orion constellation even though observers observing the small meteor \"Halleyids\" at Alabama's Space Flight Center saw streaks radiating in all directions with the naked eye.\n- Jenniskens, Peter (2006), Meteor Showers And Their Parent Comets, Cambridge University Press, p. 9, ISBN 0521853494.\n- Moore, Patrick; Rees, Robin (2011), Patrick Moore's Data Book of Astronomy (2nd ed.), Cambridge University Press, p. 275, ISBN 0-521-89935-4.\n- Kero, J.; et al.

It was forecast to be 130 miles south of Okinawa, Japan by Wednesday morning.\nHagibis, which weakened from a tropical storm, blew across the southern half of Mindoro, about 100 miles south of Manila around 4 p.m. Tuesday, packing winds of up to 34 miles, the weather bureau said.\nHagibis killed 13 people in the country last week before heading for Vietnam. It reversed its position and turned back to the Philippines, complicating emergency preparations.\nFatalities from Mitag rose from 12 to 17 Tuesday, after three people were reportedly killed in western Palawan province and two men drowned in northern Cagayan province, the Office of Civil Defense reported.\nEighteen other people remain missing in Kalinga and nearby Apayao province, including two families with eight members each whose houses were washed out by landslides, said Elvira Calina, a civil defense official.\nA Philippine air force jet carrying two pilots disappeared in foul weather Monday while searching for 26 Filipino crewmen whose fishing boat sank last week near the disputed Spratly islands in the South China Sea, the air force said.\nDisaster relief officials said nearly 450,000 people were affected by Mitag, with more than 200,000 people moved to evacuation centers.\nThe typhoon flooded at least 50 villages in Isabela, a province of more than a million people. A swollen river in the provincial capital, Ilagan, engulfed at least 10 houses, officials said. Most of Isabela had no power.\nIn nearby Cagayan province, strong winds toppled trees and knocked down power posts, cutting off electricity in the province of nearly a million, Gov. Alvaro Antonio said. The province’s rice industry suffered losses.\n“We were just one or two weeks away from harvest time. I’m afraid we’ve lost everything to the flood and strong winds,” Antonio said by telephone.\nThe Agriculture Department estimated losses at $2.5 million, still a fraction of the $246 million incurred during last year’s typhoons.\nMitag was the most erratic of the 13 typhoons and major storms that have hit the Philippines this year. It first headed for the populous Bicol region, where more than 250,000 people were evacuated, but shifted Saturday to the north.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

That includes people with lung disease, older adults and children, who all face a greater risk of health issues arising prolonged or heavy exertion outdoors, according to the Washoe County Health District’s Air Quality Management Division.\nSeveral other fires in the area are also contributing to the hazy conditions in Reno, said meteorologist Mark Deutschendorf, of the National Weather Service.\nA 3,500-acre fire burning in Lassen County was also blowing haze into the Reno area, Deutschendorf said.\nThe Whaleback Fire was reported at about 1:32 p.m. on Friday near Whaleback Mountain and Antelope Valley Road, just west of Spaulding and Eagle Lake and northwest of Susanville. The fire was only 5 percent contained as of Saturday, according to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE).\nEvacuations were made in Spalding and in both Christie and Merrill campgrounds. An evacuation center was set up at Assembly of God Church in Susanville, according to CAL FIRE.\nDeutschendorf said the Ferguson Fire burning near Yosemite National Park was also pumping smoke into the Mammoth Mountain area and in other places south of Reno.\nThe Ferguson Fire has burned 49,619 acres and is 29 percent contained as of Saturday. More than 3,800 firefighters were battling the blaze, including 282 engines, 46 water tenders and 16 helicopters. That also includes 92 crews, 81 dozers and five masticators.\nOne person was killed and seven others have been injured as a result of the fire. The blaze also destroyed one structure, according to officials with the Sierra National Forest.\n“The smoke will ease up early this afternoon and evening, but it’s not really going away,” Deutschendorf said Saturday.\nHe said most of the smoke from the daytime burning of the Carr Fire will continue to cover Reno in a haze.\nThe fire has grown to more than 75 square miles and has claimed the lives of two people and injured three others. It was also threatening another 5,000 structures in and around Redding, Calif.\n“I can see a little bit of blue sky from where we’re at,” Deutschendorf said from the National Weather Service office in north Reno. “Until the next round of smoke arrives early in the morning tomorrow. We’re kind of in a repeating pattern for a while.”\nAfternoon winds could help ease the haze, but it’s not a very strong wind, he said.\n“It’ll be a 20 to 25 mph afternoon breeze or gust,” Deutschendorf said. “We’re not expecting any thunderstorms, and we’re not expecting any strong winds.”\nForecasters were expecting some isolated thunderstorms in Mono and Mineral counties Saturday afternoon, but none in Washoe County.\nDeutschendorf said he also expects high temperatures, with some days experiencing slightly cooler","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

And every summer, skywatchers all over the world look forward to observing the Perseid meteors — the \"Old Faithful\" of the annual meteor displays. In the process, however, most viewers will overlook six relatively minor meteor showers that peak between July 26 and Aug. 21 (three in July and three in August).\nThe radiants for most of these meteor showers will be concentrated in the southern part of the sky between roughly 1 a.m. and 4 a.m. local time. A radiant is the place in the sky where the paths of meteors, if extended backward, would intersect from a particular constellation. Many people are misled into thinking that this is the best place to look for these meteors, but in reality, the radiant is an optical illusion: The meteors are traveling on parallel paths, but due to our perspective, the meteors appear to be darting from this particular spot in the sky.\nSo, in essence, if you concentrate your viewing here, you'll be looking basically at the vanishing point or a void in the sky. Only the very occasional stationary meteor — one that is coming nearly straight at you — can be seen here. In contrast, the greatest number of meteors will be seen perhaps 30 degrees away from the radiant, in the general direction of the zenith, the point in the sky directly overhead. (Your fist held at arm's length corresponds to roughly 10 degrees of the sky.)\nBut the majority of southern showers do make it more likely that any \"shooting star\" seen in late July or early August will appear to be coming from the south.\nIn addition to the shower meteors, there are always sporadic ones. Before midnight, these average two or three per hour, and just before dawn, there are perhaps as many as six or seven. The duration in days of the meteor showers provided here is somewhat arbitrary, since the beginning and end are gradual and indefinite.\nOur information was compiled from several sources — most notably, the book \"Meteor Showers — A Descriptive Catalog\" (Enslow, 1988), by Gary Kronk, and the International Meteor Organization's 2022 Meteor Shower Calendar.\nThis meteor shower peaks on July 26, though it extends from July 10 to Aug. 15. With the July new moon only two days away and the radiant reaching its highest point — about 30 degrees up — in the south at 1:40 a.m. local daylight time, conditions are nearly ideal to look for these bright meteors. The stars of Capricornus (the Sea Goat) form a roughly triangular figure, which may suggest an inverted cocked hat, or perhaps a stingray swimming directly toward you. Only a few Capricornids will appear per hour, so most of the visible meteors will be either sporadic or members of another shower. A good way to separate the two is to imagine the meteor's path as being extended backward on the sky. Does it pass near Capricornus? If so, it is almost certainly a shower member.\nThis meteor shower extends from July 15 to Aug. 10, peaking on July 28. During the height of the Piscis Austrinids, the moon will be in new phase, so you won't have to worry about moonlight ruining the view. The radiant is not far from the first-magnitude star Fomalhaut, which appears quite low — about 20 degrees, or two fists, above the southern horizon — at 3:15 a.m. Because of its low altitude, this meteor stream is best viewed from the Southern Hemisphere, where the radiant climbs high into the sky and produces up to eight members per hour.\nJuly 30 marks the peak of the Delta Aquarids, the most prolific of the six minor showers, which runs from July 12 to Aug. 23. Aquarius (the Water Carrier) is pictured as carelessly carrying a water jar so that water is spilling out. The water jar is marked by a little triangle of faint stars, with a fourth star at its center. Interestingly, this shower has two radiants, suggesting that we're seeing two distinct streams of celestial debris burning up in Earth's atmosphere. One is located near the star Delta Aquarii, and the other is near the water jar configuration. As many as two dozen meteors per hour are provided by this shower. Expect chiefly faint, medium-speed meteors with occasional significantly brighter events. The moon is still well out of the picture, and both radiants reach their highest point in the south at around 3:40 a.m. at an altitude of roughly 40 degrees, meaning viewing circumstances will be favorable throughout the morning.\nAnother weak shower from Capricornus, which began about July 3, peaks the same night as the Delta Aquarids (July 30) and ends on Aug. 15. The radiant is 40 degrees above the horizon at 1 a.m. Though few in number, the Alpha Capricornids frequently produce slow and bright (sometimes fireball-class) yellow meteors that can be quite spectacular.\nThis is the last minor shower before the Perseids and is another two-radiant shower having detectable members from July 15 to Aug. 25. At peak activity on Aug. 6, a bright waxing gibbous moon will set shortly after midnight, leaving the rest of the night dark for meteor watching. At best, perhaps six members per hour are seen under good conditions. The radiants are at their highest — 40 degrees high in the south — at 2:15 a.m.\nA waning gibbous moon, one and a half days past full, will dominate the overnight skies of Aug. 12 to 13 to spoil this year's annual performance of the Perseid meteor shower. The radiant, which is not far from the famous Double Star Cluster in northern Perseus, rises in the evening and is nearly 70 degrees above the northern horizon at the break of dawn. If not for the hampering effect of moonlight, observers would notice a crescendo in hourly rates averaging more than 60 meteors per hour, though double this rate has been seen on occasion. Many flaring meteors with trains are seen under dark skies, but unfortunately, only the brightest of them will be visible in 2022. This shower normally extends from July 25 through Aug. 18.\nThis is the last of the summer meteor showers, with the next significant display (the Orionids) not coming until the latter half of October. The host constellation Cygnus (the Swan) is formed by a large figure of six stars popularly called the Northern Cross, the long axis of which lies lengthwise along the Milky Way. The limits for this shower run from Aug. 3 to 25, with the peak occurring Aug. 17. But although the maximum rate is only three or four meteors per hour, this stream does provide slow-moving, sometimes brilliant flaring fireballs, and a careful skywatcher may be nicely rewarded for the time spent. On peak night, the moon is a waning gibbous and does not rise until around 10:30 p.m., but the hours before midnight are still the best time to view this shower. At its highest, the star Kappa Cygni — from where these meteors appear to radiate — stands more than 75 degrees above the northern horizon at 10:15 p.m.\nJoe Rao serves as an instructor and guest lecturer at New York's Hayden Planetarium.

Residents from Louisiana to Florida were told to also expect storm surge and high winds.\nTropical Storm Sally in the Gulf of Mexico before it strengthened to a hurricane.Credit:AP\nSally is the 18th named storm in the Atlantic this year and will be the eighth of tropical storm or hurricane strength to hit the United States – something \"very rare if not a record\" said Dan Kottlowski, senior meteorologist at AccuWeather. Accurate data on historic tropical storms can be elusive.\nMississippi and Louisiana issued mandatory evacuation orders to residents of low-lying areas while Mississippi ordered its coastal casinos to close by late Monday afternoon.\n“We are going to bear the brunt of this storm,” Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves told residents on Monday, warning that rainfall along the coast could exceed 50.8 cm.\nLouisiana Governor John Bel Edwards appealed for a federal disaster declaration and advised people living in Sally's path to flee.\nA truck drives through seawater as Beach Boulevard floods in Waveland, Mississippi.Credit:AP\n\"We have to make sure that everything is tied down and out of the way so it doesn't float away or become airborne,\" said Steve Forstall, a Bay St. Louis, Mississippi, port employee.\nIn the coastal town, located roughly 80 km northeast of New Orleans, water from the bay was spilling onto the beach roadway early on Monday, local time. Workers were seen boarding up homes and securing items like trash cans that can become projectiles in high winds. Residents helped each other fill sandbags at a do-it-yourself station, and some people parked cars and boats on higher ground, anticipating flooded roads.\nThe US Coast Guard was limiting traffic from the Port of New Orleans, while energy companies slowed or cut refinery output and scrambled to pull workers from offshore oil and gas production platforms.\nAt 1pm local time, Sally was 210 km east-southeast of the mouth of the Mississippi River, packing sustained winds of 145 km/h, according to the NHC.\nThe storm will approach southeastern Louisiana on Monday night but not make landfall until sometime on Tuesday, local time, the NHC said. Its slow movement is expected to dump 20 to 40 cm on the coast and cause widespread river flooding.\nAn expected turn to the north is \"going to be critical for the New Orleans area,\" said Jim Foerster, chief meteorologist at DTN, an energy, agriculture and weather data provider. Mississippi appears more likely for landfall, but Sally's biggest threat is that it will be a \"rainmaker\" across a wide swath of the Gulf Coast and drop much as 7.62 to 10.2 cm in areas as far inland as Atlanta, Foerster said.\nResidents of southwestern Louisiana are still clearing debris and tens of thousands of homes are without power after Hurricane Laura left a trail of destruction. Sally's path remains east of that hard-hit area.\nDamage from Sally is expected to reach $US2 billion to $US3 billion, but could exceed that if the storm's heaviest rainfall happens over land instead of in the Gulf, said Chuck Watson of Enki Research, which models and tracks tropical storms.\nMost Viewed in World\nSource: Read Full Article","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But hurricane growth often stalls as the storms approach land, partly because as the ocean gets shallower, there is less water and therefore less heat available to the storm. As a result, most hurricanes weaken or stay the same strength as they get close to making landfall.\nBut Hurricane Harvey intensified from a Category 3 storm to a Category 4 as it neared the Texas shore in late August 2017, and scientists have been puzzled as to why it was different. In a new study, researchers at Texas A&M University compared ocean temperatures in the Texas Bight, the shallow waters that line the Gulf Coast, before and after Harvey passed through it.\nThey found the Bight was warm all the way to the seabed before Harvey arrived. Strong hurricane winds mix the ocean waters below the storm, so if there is any cold water below the warm water at the surface, the storm’s growth will slow. But there wasn’t any cold water for Harvey to churn up as it neared the coast, so the storm continued to strengthen right before it made landfall, according to the study’s authors.\n“When you have hurricanes that come ashore at the right time of year, when the temperature is particularly warm and the ocean is particularly well-mixed, they can absolutely continue to intensify over the shallow water,” said Henry Potter, an oceanographer at Texas A&M and lead author of the new study in AGU’s Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans.\nThe researchers don’t yet have enough temperature data to say if the Texas Bight was unusually warm in 2017. But the findings suggest hurricane forecasters may need to adjust the criteria they use to predict storm intensity, according to Potter. Forecasters typically use satellite measurements and historical data to make intensity predictions, but Harvey’s case shows they need data collected from the ocean itself to know exactly how much heat is there, where that heat is located in the water column and if it’s easily accessible to the storm, Potter said.\nLauren Lipuma is a senior public information specialist at AGU.

Our model takes these two points into account to give an accurate prediction of this kind of wind direction. A simulation study shows that our model has a significantly higher prediction accuracy and a smaller mean circular prediction error than three existing models and it is illustrated to be effective by analyzing real data.

It looks like funky weather and slowly building W-NW storm-swell will be on tap for Northern/Central California on Friday…and then a much bigger jump in stormy swell by Saturday and Sunday. SoCal, like usual, lags about day behind…seeing the storm move in later Friday and the swell arriving more on Saturday and peaking on Sunday, before fading on Monday.\nFor detailed and worldwide surf forecasts and reports go to www.magicseaweed.com\nHere is the same storm on the Visible GOES satellite…\nThis mix of W-NW storm swell, will actually be a blend of short-period W swell from the storm's winds and it broke through the outer-waters just off the coast, and some longer-period energy from the same system as it was further over by Hawaii and just developing. It looks like exposed areas will see overhead to well overhead+ surf along the North and Central Coasts, while SoCal sees a smaller version. All areas will likely see S winds around 15-25+ knots on Friday…and then SW-W winds on Saturday (and plenty of junk conditions).\nFurther out in the charts we have continued storm activity taking place over in the Western North Pacific…this is setting up another round of WNW-NW swell for Hawaii that hits on Friday and fades slowly through the weekend. This same swell comes in more NW'erly for the West Coast showing some energy late on Sunday for Nor/Cen-Cal and late Monday down in SoCal. This one doesn't look all that great for the West Coast but it will have a little bit longer-periods and some time to groom out as it makes its way over…so while it won't be as big as some of the swells we have seen it might be a little more organized.\nFurther out there is another strong low-pressure setting up in the next 4-5 days…likely becoming yet another complex low-pressure up around the Aleutians.\nIf this can live up to forecasts and right now it seems likely…Hawaii would be looking at a sizeable WNW-NW swell (300-340) that would arrive on Feb 10-11. The West Coast would also see a pretty good-sized dose of WNW-NW energy (280-300) that would begin arriving as early as the 12th in Northern and Central California and the 13th in SoCal. This will peak over Valentines Day weekend…with more overhead+ surf on tap for exposed areas and sets going well-overhead to double-overhead+ along the Northern/Central coasts. SoCal will be smaller with mostly shoulder-overhead surf and sets going a few feet overhead as the swell peaks.\nChances are that there will be some weather coming along with that Valentine's swell but we are still several days from seeing how funky it might actually get…but it is something that you should keep in mind as you plan out where to surf that weekend.\nExtreme long-range charts for the North Pacific show that complex low-pressure hold in place through the end of the forecast run with some storms starting to push over the west coast…reminiscent of the bigger rains we had in January…if this ends up happening not only will we see some weather, but there will be a good chance of WNW-NW swell holding some decent size all the way through the middle of the month…and probably out to the 18-20th. (ah good times).\nDown in the South Pacific we have finally have a bit more activity humming along…nothing like what we would see over the NPAC summer, but enough that it is going to kick out some SW swell for the exposed spots. It won't generate a huge SW swell for the Northern Hemisphere…but it should be good for some chest-head high sets at the standout SW facing breaks in SoCal. Check out how these winds are showing on WINDSAT satellite…\nOne thing to keep in mind is that this one does look like it will hit Tahiti pretty good…possibly in the 10-foot deepwater range (which is double-overhead+ at spots that can focus the swell) around the 7-8th…which is plenty large considering that it is the middle of their summer. Not sure how the winds will hold up since there is a lot of weather moving around the tropic/sub-tropical regions, so it might not be worth pulling the trigger on a ticket…but if you were heading to the region anyways (say to catch some WNW-NW swell) you might want to keep in mind that the S-swell spots will be working as well.\nHere are the details for Hawaii and the West Coast…\nWNW-NW swell peaked on Wednesday along with some funky N winds…here on Thursday the winds have shifted more easterly and will hold into Friday…just in time for another round of WNW-NW swell, again around the 10-12' feet of deepwater energy but with longer swell-periods (closer to 15-17 seconds) as the swell peaks. This seems like the cleanest and most organized swell of the week/weekend so it might be worth planning on surfing around then. Further out it looks like another 10-12' WNW swell arrives and peaks on the 8th…and then possibly a much bigger shot of 15-17' of WNW swell energy lining up for Feb 10-12th. There will probably be some weather coming along with this one so plan for winds to be shifting around as a couple of cold fronts pass through as the swell peaks.\nA shorter-period, W-WNW swell (260-290) from a storm just off the California Coast will arrive on Saturday coming up fast and bringing more wind and rain along with it. We can expect more surf in the well-overhead range with more double-overhead sets. This swell looks a lot less organized than the swell earlier in the week but there should still be some rideable waves at spots protected from the S winds. Further out it looks like a longer-period WNW-NW swell (285-320) arrives on Sunday, Feb 7, and peaks on Monday the 8th before dropping off. This one looks about head high for most areas and some sets going a few feet overhead at the top breaks. Long-range charts are calling for more storm action and more short-period/medium period WNW swell showing through the middle and end of next week…with the potential for a bigger WNW-NW swell showing as early as Feb 12…and then peaking over Valentine's Day weekend.\nAfter seeing mostly leftovers on Friday, a stormy mix of short period W-WNW swell and some longer period NW swell will arrive on Saturday, peaking on Sunday with surf running overhead to a few feet overhead at the top breaks. Unfortunately it looks like more S winds and rain on tap for most of SoCal as well…it doesn't mean every spot will be blown out, but expect most areas to see sort of sloppy hacked up shape with a few more rideable nuggets showing at breaks protected by the winds. Next week looks a little cleaner and we will have more shoulder-head high WNW-NW swell moving in around the 8-9th. The second half of next week looks a bit stormy again (at least on the weather charts) and so we can expect more short-period storm swell through Thursday and Friday…and potentially a bigger, longer-period WNW swell that would peak over the weekend of Feb 13-14.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In his recollection, Galella has never been flooded with the same frequency as in the last two months of 2015.\nThe village was hit six times in less than two months, Darmarathana said, after unusually heavy rains battered the region in November and December.\nOver a million people were marooned in Sri Lanka’s Northern, North Central and Eastern Provinces, and over 400 homes and other buildings were destroyed.\nAn advisory issued by the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) in early December attributed the rains to the current El Niño weather phenomenon, likely to be the strongest since 1997-1998.\nExtreme rainfall also caused havoc in India late last year, including extensive flooding in the city of Chennai.\n“The consensus that strong El Niño conditions has led to abnormal rainfall during the northeast monsoon season in South Asia indicates that El Niño had a part to play in the sequence of extreme weather events in India,” the ESCAP advisory said.\nExcessive El Niño-linked rainfall across southern India and northern Sri Lanka was expected to continue into early 2016, it added.\nSri Lankan authorities said they were prepared. “Historically El Niño has meant more rains in this region, so we have been making our predictions on those lines,” said Lalith Chandrapala, head of the island’s Department of Meteorology.\nChandrapala said the country could be in a position to benefit from the El Niño-induced rains, which began in mid-November on the back of a weak monsoon he assessed to be 75 percent below average.\n“We have been telling agencies like the Department of Agriculture to advise farmers to prepare for rains,” he said.\nThe ESCAP report also noted that the waters from the current bout of rains could be used for the upcoming planting season.\nAs the heavy rains struck when there was no harvest, agricultural losses have been negligible.\nPradeep Koddiplili, deputy director at the Disaster Management Centre, said no warnings had yet been issued for potential El Niño-related crop damage, mainly because the rains had coincided with the preparation of fields for planting.\nBut disaster risk experts working in rural areas say awareness of changing weather patterns remains low and could prevent farmers making the most of the unseasonal rains.\nSarath Wickramasinghe, a disaster risk reduction specialist with the Sri Lanka Red Cross who works in North Central Province, said people in the country’s dry zone lacked sufficient infrastructure and knowledge to adapt to shifting rains.\n“They are traditionally geared for the monsoon, which comes twice a year - even some officials are,” he said. “That mindset needs to be changed.”\nFarmers must adjust to long dry spells, like that experienced in parts of Sri Lanka between June and October 2015, broken by heavy rains. “Right now the cultivation cycles follow the traditional monsoon,” he added.\nFarmer Darmarathana from Galella has worked according to the monsoon since he started farming in the 1970s.\n“I don’t know any other timetable,” he said. “Someone needs to teach me the new methods, if there are any.”\nWickramasinghe said the approach of traditional farmers needed to evolve “if we are to gain any kind of advantage from the changing rain patterns”.\nThe Red Cross and the U.N. Development Programme have launched a pilot project in Polonnaruwa District to help farmers adapt to uncertain weather and climate conditions.\nTargeting 100 families in Nagastenne village, it provides them with assistance including seeds and technical knowledge to develop sustainable agriculture methods, such as water harvesting, and to restore degraded land.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Probably a meteor.\nWhen a thunderous boom was heard across the Salt Lake City area over the weekend, it confused residents. Was the seemingly inexplicable noise an earthquake or construction noise? Perhaps it was military testing or something from space?\nAfter hearing the explosion while out on a Saturday morning run, Utah Gov. Spencer Cox (R) tweeted that all signs pointed to a meteor.\nMultiple doorbell cameras captured audio of the boom, which was heard in northern Utah and southern Idaho. Then there was a mystery to solve: Cox had said the cause of the boom was not an earthquake, something which the University of Utah independently confirmed, or related to any military testing, as had been the case in a similar incident in April.\nThe National Weather Service’s Salt Lake City office found itself playing detective, using satellite data from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) system to scan the skies above Salt Lake City. They looked for lightning flashes, though lightning wasn’t really what they were looking for.\nBolstering the meteor theory for this morning’s #boom in #Utah, the two reddish pixels shown over Davis and Morgan counties are from the GOES-17 Lightning Mapper, but not associated with evidence of thunderstorm activity in satellite or radar. Likely the meteor trail/flash #utwxpic.twitter.com/qRO2Rsfca7\nAs it turns out, the powerful GOESsatellite can also pick up bright flashes emitted by exploding meteors.\nSure enough, the satellite picked up two instances of bright flashes on Saturday morning. The flashes did not appear to be consistent with any thunderstorm activity in the area, meaning it was more than likely that the satellite had picked up on a passing meteor.\nUltimately, video evidence from Utah’s Snowbasin ski resort provided all but absolute proof that Saturday’s boom was caused by a meteor. A few cameras managedto capture a fireball, which is a larger than normal meteor, flying over Utah’s scenic skies that same morning.\nSaturday’s meteor passed over Utah just past the peak of the Perseid meteor shower, though it is unclear whether the meteor was a part of that event — which is caused by visible debris from the Swift-Tuttle comet — or whether the two events just happened to align.\nThe Saturday boom is hardly the first time a mysterious explosion has caused widespread confusion.\nLast September, NBCWashington reported that dozens of people called 911 after a mysterious loud boom was heard in the Shenandoah Valley. It was initially unclear would could have caused a loud boom on the ground.\nAccording to local reports, area meteorologists used lightning-tracking satellite technology to confirm that the boom was most likely caused by a meteor. A handful of sightings, including from a pilot who spotted the meteor tracking relatively low in the atmosphere, also helped astronomers from NASA confirm that the incident was an exploding meteor.\nSome Reddit users digging into Saturday’s noise suggested the meteor’s passage may have been predicted decades ago.\nOn Aug. 10, 1972, a meteor that came to be known as the “Great Daylight Fireball” entered the atmosphere over Utah and traveled hundreds of miles into Canada before reentering space. Stunning photos of the fireball show it streaking over the Grand Tetons.\nThe #GreatDaylightFireball☄️entered Earth’s atmosphere at a very shallow angle and didn’t lose sufficient energy to be captured by Earth’s gravity and fall to the ground. It is thought the #asteroid had a diameter of ~10m. It hasn’t been seen since.\nSome astronomers theorized that the asteroid that caused the fireball was on a roughly 25-year resonance, meaning that it would pass through the area in 1997 and again in 2022, according to a prediction from Austrian astronomer Zdenek Ceplecha.\nScientists have expressed skepticism about such a 2022 appearance, and nothing notable was observed in 1997.\n“I think it’s very unlikely that this was the same object but it’s fun to entertain the possibility,” said Mark Boslough, a physicist at Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, in an email.\nBoslough wrote that scientists should be able map out a trajectory for Saturday’s fireball to determine if the events are linked.\n“I do not expect it to match The Post-1972 orbit of the Great Daylight Fireball, but it would be a fantastic event if it did,” he said. “Even in that case, there would not have been any reason to expect it to have entered the atmosphere over Utah again, since the Earth’s spin is not synchronized with its orbit or the orbit of any asteroid. Coincidences do happen.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Cleanup work kept about 13 miles (21 kilometers) of the scenic highway closed from western Malibu to Ventura County. Caltrans said the closure might last into Tuesday. (Caltrans via AP)SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Utility crews restored power to thousands of people Monday and mopped up the damage from a winter storm that swept through Northern California, as they braced for more stormy weather later this week.A new wet system is expected in the region on Tuesday night that won’t be as intense but two more powerful storms are expected over the weekend, National Weather Service forecaster Emily Heller said.Strong winds and downed trees knocked out electricity for nearly 90,000 customers across the Sacramento region Sunday night. Toppled utility poles and trees prompted the temporary closure of a major highway.By Monday afternoon, about 3,000 customers were still without power, the Sacramento Municipal Utility District said.Spokeswoman Lindsay Van Laningham said the utility was getting ready for more potential work later this week.”We’ll have all hands on deck for crews to repair damages. We are ready for it, and we’re sort of mopping up from today’s storm and damage,” she said.In Oregon and Washington, tens of thousands of people remained without power after windstorms struck parts the northwest over the weekend.Interstate 80 from Placer County in California to the state line with Nevada reopened Monday but it remained closed in Nevada’s Washoe County, the California Transportation Department said.Officials shut down the highway Sunday after the snowstorm reached the Lake Tahoe area as weekend visitors were leaving.The National Weather Service on Monday issued a winter storm warning for areas in the Sierra Nevada above 4,000 feet (1,200 meters), saying snowy and gusty conditions will limit visibility.Over three days 4.5 feet (1.37 meters) of snow accumulated at the summit of Mammoth Mountain, 150 miles (240 kilometers) south of Tahoe, the resort said Monday. More than a foot (30 centimeters) fell in the upper elevations around Tahoe, including 19 inches (48 centimeters) at Squaw Valley.Up to 5 inches (13 centimeters) of rain fell in some Northern California coastal and valley areas, while mountain communities got heavy snow.In Southern California, light to moderate rain fell early Monday as a second system followed heavy Saturday night downpours that unleashed massive mud flows from the fire-scarred Santa Monica Mountains onto Pacific Coast Highway.Cleanup work kept about 13 miles (21 kilometers) of the scenic highway closed from western Malibu to Ventura County. Caltrans said the closure might last into Tuesday.While the latest rain was modest, powerful winds swept the Antelope Valley north of Los Angeles early Monday because of a so-called mountain wave — southwesterly winds rising up and over the San Gabriel Mountains and then plunging down into the high desert. The National Weather Service said a 78 mph (125 kph) gust was recorded at Lake Palmdale.In the northwest, about 30,000 Puget Sound Energy customers in Oregon and Washington remained without power Monday afternoon. Crews had restored power to 288,000 customers since the height of the storm. Seattle City Light had approximately 1,000 customers without power as of Monday morning, the utility said on Twitter.In Oregon the lights were back on for most people.The storm caused Alaska Airlines to ground all its flights between 4:20 a.m. and 5:15 a.m. Sunday after a power outage in the Seattle area, where its operations are based. Twenty seven flights were delayed and five were canceled.The National Weather Service reported winds included gusts of more than 60 mph (95 kph) at the storm’s peak Saturday night and early Sunday morning.\nTruck drivers help each other after being trapped by heavy snowfall on the Autobahn A8 near Holzkirchen, southern Germany, Monday, Jan. 7, 2019.

Residents and visitors were asked to leave the region by the end of the day.Austrian authorities warned skiers not to go off the slopes and not drive their cars unless needed. More snow was forecast for the coming days and the alpine country said it was getting mountaineer teams and helicopters ready for possible rescue missions.In Bavaria, authorities also had to close roads and some train lines because of heavy snowfall and in some parts of southern Bavaria and the Steiermark region in Austria, schools were closed Monday because of the weather conditions.Police in Norway on Monday released the names of four skiers — a 29-year Swedish woman and three Finns, aged 29, 32 and 36 — who are presumed dead after a 300-meter-wide (990-foot-wide) avalanche was reported Wednesday in Tamok valley, near the northern city of Tromsoe.Heavy snowfall and poor visibility had hampered rescue efforts over the past few days.Meanwhile, the Netherlands was bracing for strong winds.

The system spread a few light showers to the far northern coast while most of most the state remained dry and mild.\nWednesday was the warmest day of the week with highs reaching the 80s in some areas of the north and the 90s in Southern California. Another weak cold front brushed Northern California Wednesday night. The system had very little effect on the weather with most of the state having dry and very mild conditions through the middle part of the week.\nThe first day of spring, Saturday, was dry statewide with above normal temperatures. One last cold front spread some rain over the northern coast on Sunday with some showers extending into the northern mountain ranges. The rest of the state was dry and warm.\nWeed control continued in winter wheat, rye, oat, and alfalfa fields. Alfalfa cutting continued. Winter forage crops are in good condition. Rice fields were drained and pre-plant herbicides were applied. Rice straw was burned as conditions allowed.\nPre-plant operations continued for corn, cotton, and dry bean fields. Cotton beds received herbicide treatments in preparation for planting. Irrigation districts began to turn on the water which allowed field irrigation to start.\nWidespread bloom continued for plum, prune, peach, cherry, and other early varieties of stone fruit across the Central Valley. Fungicide sprays were ongoing for blooming stone fruit trees.\nThe picking of tangerines, Navel oranges, grapefruit, lemons, and early Valencia oranges continued. Herbicide sprays were applied in Central Valley grape vineyards. Warmer temperatures aided the budding of wine grape vineyards along the Central Coast. Strawberry fields set fruit in the San Joaquin Valley.\nThe almond bloom neared conclusion throughout the Central Valley as heavy petal fall continued. Almond development has appeared healthy throughout the bloom. Some brown rot has been observed in almond orchards due to wet weather earlier in the season. Walnut blight applications began as growers prepared for the upcoming walnut bloom.\nField work took place and pre-plant herbicide treatments were applied in Sutter County. Imperial County’s winter produce was almost all harvested except for salad products and a few fields of organic spring mix and spinach. The carrot harvest was also coming to an end.\nIn San Joaquin County, the asparagus harvest progressed with excellent yields. The radicchio and asparagus harvests continued in Merced County. Farmers began to plant watermelon fields.\nIn Tulare County, the field spinach harvest began. Squash was planted under plastic hot caps. Fields were prepared for summer vegetables.\nTomato planting was more than halfway complete in Fresno County. Carrots were nearly all planted and irrigated for germination.

Particularly hard hit were locations in the Northeast, as moderating weather was seen sending Tuesday temperatures to above normal readings. Locations in and around New York and Philadelphia were softer as well, but Marcelllus points advanced. California points were steady to higher. At the close of futures trading April had advanced 3.3 cents to $4.651 and May was up 0.9 cent to $4.576. April crude oil slumped $1.46 to $101.12/bbl.\nIn New England next day prices swan dived as weather forecasts called for temperatures Tuesday as much as 10 degrees above seasonal norms. Forecaster Wunderground.com predicted that Boston’s high of 44 would rise to 52 Tuesday before easing to 42 Wednesday. The normal mid-March high for Boston is 44. New York City’s 49 high on Monday was expected to reach 59 Tuesday and then fall to 51 Wednesday. The seasonal high in New York City this time of year is 48. Baltimore’s balmy 60 degree high Monday was predicted to reach 65 on Tuesday before moderating to 62 on Wednesday. The normal high in Baltimore is 52.\nPrices may have weakened for Tuesday, but Wunderground.com meteorologists Tom Niziol and Tom Moore are looking for a winter storm to make a broad traverse from the Rockies to the East Coast later in the week.\n“[The] system will move across the Midwest into the Northeast Tuesday night through Thursday. A swath of moderate to heavy snowfall is likely from northern Indiana through Great Lakes to Interior New England. Still lot of uncertainty to snowfall for major cities from New York through Boston.”\n“System strengthens Wednesday as it heads toward the East Coast. A swath of 5 to 8 inches of snow is likely from northern Ohio through interior New England with the potential to see a foot or more of snow in parts of interior New England. Models still showing some uncertainty to the amount of snow that will fall in major metro areas from New York to Boston with a trend to bring warmer air and a better chance for rain in the early part of the storm Wednesday night. The I-95 corridor from Washington to just south of New York will likely be all rain. From New York to Boston it should start as all rain Wednesday night then change quickly to snow by Thursday morning with some accumulations possible. [There will be] strong winds on the backside of the system will create near blizzard conditions across parts of upstate New York through Interior New England Wednesday night into Thursday morning.”\nGas for Tuesday delivery at the Algonquin Citygates plummeted $8.35 to $7.19 and deliveries to Iroquois Waddington dropped $8.98 to $6.86. Parcels on Tennessee Zone 6 200 L tumbled $8.82 to $7.40.\nGas bound for Philadelphia and New York City weakened as well. Gas on Tetco M-3 Delivery shed 48 cents to $4.55 and gas headed for New York City on Transco Zone 6 fell 29 cents to $4.68. On Dominion next-day packages slipped 24 cents to $4.16.\nMarcellus points jumped. On Transco Leidy gas gained $1.52 to $3.56 and parcels on Tennessee Zone 4 Marcellus rose $1.18 to $3.02.\nAnalyses all point to season ending storage well south of 1 Tcf with the lowest season-ending inventories since 2003. The bearish argument going forward is that near record marketed production of 71.5 Bcf/d is (according to EIA projections) likely to continue throughout 2014. Throw in a cool spring and summer, ample Pacific Northwest hydro, and a minimal tropical storm environment, and the groundwork is laid for stout storage injections. The EIA is forecasting ending storage at 3,670 Bcf by the end of October.\nOthers aren’t so sure. “The problem is if we had a lot of empty pipe, and we could bring on more gas through the summer that is one thing. But we don’t have a lot of extra pipelines, and 2 or 3 years down the line we will have that, but it’s not there yet,” observed an industry veteran.\nHe pointed out that Dominion and Columbia Gas TCO are essentially in the same markets, but TCO was trading at 20 cents under Nymex for the summer versus Dominion at 85 cents under. “There’s a 65 cent difference between Columbia Appalachia and Dominion South Pool for the summer. What does that tell you. There’s a lot of storage demand, and a lot more demand on the Columbia side which serves Ohio and parts of Kentucky and Virginia, and there will be less gas able to get there.”\nLonger term weather forecasters see cold and storminess prevailing for the next two weeks in the East and Northeast. Joe Bastardi of WeatherBELL Analytics in his Monday morning 20-day forecast said, “The coming 10 days have two major winter storm threats. The first is through the heart of the Midwest Tuesday night into Wednesday and then the interior Northeast Wednesday into Thursday. This has shifted north a bit from yesterday but may wiggle back south a tad until the storm gets out into the Plains. The core of the snow will be close to Chicago, with the highest amounts just south, and mainly north of New York City and Boston, but still giving them some. This is a miss for the areas hit hardest early last week.\n“The models are still creating a second storm, but there’s a double-barrel system, with the first one moving offshore now but a second on its tail. Moral is there is trouble in the six-10, and it’s not unlike a set-up in mid-March 1956 that did produce a big storm in the coastal plain. When talking of such things, it implies that it has to be cold for this time of year, and that is the main message.”\nQuantitatively, WeatherBELL predicts a heating degree day (HDD) accumulation nationally of 116.5 for the six- to 10-day period. That compares to 91.7 HDD a year ago and a 30-year average 87.5. For the 11- to 15-day period it sees 102.6 HDD. A year ago 113.6 HDD were tallied and the 30 year average is for 84.9 HDD.\nAnalysts see some residual market strength. Mike DeVooght, president of DEVO Capital, in a weekend note to clients said, “One of the key factors driving the gas market higher was the liquidation of short speculative positions that have been in place for quite some time. That buying pressure has evaporated now that those positions have been liquidated. It has been our feeling that we could see a little more strength into mid-March, but then there is a very good chance we work back towards the $4 level on the summer 14 strip. On a trading basis, we will hold current positions.” The summer strip settled Friday at $4.600.\nDeVooght advises trading accounts to hold a short April futures position from $5.00 to $5.10. End-users are counseled to stand aside, and those with exposure to lower prices should hold short an April-October strip from $4.20 to $4.30 (initial position) as well as a second April-October position established at $4.50.\nAddison Armstrong of Tradition Energy sees “severely depleted storage levels and expectations of what will likely be a record storage withdrawal for the month of March, provid[ing] a boost to the market. But the approaching start of shoulder season and the subsequent drop-off in seasonal demand levels has the potential to provide resistance to rising gas prices in the coming weeks. Weather forecasts, after the next couple days of normal to below-normal temperatures, are expected to shift colder later this week.”\n© 2020 Natural Gas Intelligence.

Meteorologists say strong winds and higher than normal temperatures have managed to lower smog to an extent but conditions may turn hostile soon.\nThe air quality index (AQI) has been oscillating between \"poor\" and \"moderate\" categories in Delhi, but its air was worse than Beijing's for most of the week. Strangely, Kolkata's PM 2.5 levels for this week were worse than both Delhi and Beijing, according to data released by the US embassies in these cities that is being collated by US-based Open AQ.\nSatellite images also showed a thick smog cover over Kolkata. The smog was particularly stark on November 23 and 24. This trend, however, could not be verified with Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB)+ data because CPCB hasn't been releasing PM 2.5 data for Kolkata's monitoring stations.\nOpen AQ's data shows Kolkata that has been recording peaks of 350 to 400 micrograms per cubic metres, about 5 to 6 times the 24-hour standard.\nDelhi saw three \"moderate\" and four \"poor\" air quality days+ this week (Nov 21 to Nov 27) compared to all \"poor\" days last year and two \"moderate\" days in 2014. The AQIs in 2014 were also higher than this year, according to data by System of Air Quality and Weather Forecasting and Research (SAFAR) under the ministry of earth sciences (MoES).\nMeteorologists say Delhites may be exposed to poor air quality once again in the next couple of days. \"Wind speed is likely to drop. The wind direction will change to easterly from north-westerly which may prevent dispersion of aerosols. The maximum and minimum temperature, which is above normal now, is likely to drop by 2-4 degrees and 1-3 degrees respectively. So smog like conditions will reappear,\" said Ravinder Vishan, scientist in-charge at Regional Meteorological Centre (RMC).\nScientists at Kolkata said smog like conditions in the city are temporary and mild.\nHowever, experts said Kolkata's pollution is on the rise and needs to be controlled immediately. \"Kolkata experiences winter inversion too so it's not surprising that the levels are quite high. In fact, Kolkata and Howrah have twin problems of high PM and oxides of nitrogen (NOx). Their NOx levels have often been found to be higher than Delhi's,\" said Anumita Roy Chowdhury, head of Centre for Science and Environment (CSE's) clean air programme.\nScientists at SAFAR also confirmed that Kolkata despite being close to the coast sees high PM levels in winter.\nWith Inputs From TNN\nBiker Gangs In New Zealand Vow To Guard Mosques During Prayers After Deadly Shootings\nThis Engineer-MBA Returned From US With A Will To Transform A Barren Land Into An Organic Farming Facility\nNirav Modi, Living In A Rs 15 Lakhs Per Month Rent Apartment Working On A Salary Of Rs 18 Lakhs\nRich Indians Are Buying Green Card To Live In US, 300% Rise In Number Of Migrants In Last 2 Years\nFacebook, Twitter, Whatsapp Set Their Own Model Code Of Conduct, Say No Campaigns In The Last 48 Hours Of Polling\nOn World Forest Day, These 12 Powerful Images Show How Deforestation Is Affecting The World\n- PartnerWe Are All Hearts For This Cute Banter Between Deepika Padukone And Ranbir Kapoor1.8K SHARES\nWorsening Job Crisis In India, Nirav Modi Arrested + More Top News\nUAE Deports Man For Celebrating New Zealand Mosque Shooting On Social Media\n- indiaT4 Tigress Dies After Getting Tranquilised By Untrained Professionals In Maharashtra102 SHARES\n12 Years After Samjhauta Express Blast That Killed 68 People, NIA Court Acquits All 4 Accused\n- Partner1024 Smartphones Devices Were Used To Set This Guinness World Record.

It's way out from the Sun, at an averaged distance 30 times that between Earth and the Sun, which makes it tricky to make out much detail. So it wasn't until 1989, when Voyager 2 made its flyby, that two storms were discovered on Neptune.\nSince then, Hubble - the only instrument capable of doing so - has observed and tracked four more of these storms, named Dark Spots, for their darker hue than the surrounding atmosphere.\nGenerally, their behaviour has been pretty similar: they appear at mid-latitudes, they hang around for about two years while migrating towards the equator, and then they dissipate. Then, four to six years later, another shows up.\nThis storm, however, the fourth observed by Hubble, called NDS-2018, has been the exception.\n\"It was really exciting to see this one act like it's supposed to act and then all of a sudden it just stops and swings back,\" said planetary scientist Michael Wong of the University of California, Berkeley. \"That was surprising.\"\nWhen Hubble observed it again in January 2020, it was behaving as expected, migrating southwards towards the equator from the northern mid-latitudes.\nAs it migrated, the Coriolis effect keeping the storm stable at mid-latitudes was expected to weaken, gradually disappearing by the time the storm reached the equator. Then, according to simulations, and previous observations, NDS-2018 should have faded into oblivion.\nBut those January observations revealed something strange - a slightly smaller dark smudge like a miniature version of the larger storm. NDS-2018 was, by that time, around 7,400 kilometres (4,600 miles) across. Dark Spot Jr., as it was nicknamed, was around 6,275 kilometres (3,900 miles) across.\nThen, in August this year, when Hubble took another look at NDS-2018 (it's a very busy telescope and can't just stare at Neptune all the time), the storm was making its way north again. Dark Spot Jnr. was gone.\n\"We are excited about these observations because this smaller dark fragment is potentially part of the dark spot's disruption process,\" Wong said.\n\"This is a process that's never been observed. We have seen some other dark spots fading away, and they're gone, but we've never seen anything disrupt, even though it's predicted in computer simulations.\"\nIt's impossible to know exactly what happened, but the appearance and subsequent disappearance of Dark Spot Jr. might be a clue. For one thing, it was near the side of NDS-2018 that was closer to the equator. According to simulations, if anything were to disrupt a Neptunian storm, that's where it would happen.\nThe fact that Dark Spot Jr. showed up when it did could be a clue, too.\n\"When I first saw the small spot, I thought the bigger one was being disrupted. I didn't think another vortex was forming, because the small one is farther towards the equator. So it's within this unstable region. But we can't prove the two are related. It remains a complete mystery,\" Wong said.\n\"It was also in January that the dark vortex stopped its motion and started moving northward again. Maybe by shedding that fragment, that was enough to stop it from moving towards the equator.\"\nThere's still a lot we don't know about Neptune's dark spots. They are pretty empty of clouds in the middle, compared to storm vortices on Saturn and Jupiter. The clouds we can detect are fluffy white clouds that appear around the edges, probably as a result of gases freezing into methane ice crystals as they are lifted up from lower altitudes.\nOn that score, NDS-2018 provides yet another mystery: its fluffy white companion clouds disappeared when the storm changed direction.\nThis could reveal more information about how Neptunian storms evolve, the researchers say. Meanwhile, they're also looking more closely at available data to see if they can find any more information on Dark Spot Jr., to check if the smaller storm, or bits of it, may have hung around a bit longer.\nWhen Hubble next swings its shiny eye towards Neptune as part of the Outer Planet Atmospheres Legacy program, scientists will be very interested indeed to see what NDS-2018 is doing.\nThe team's research was presented at the 2020 Fall Meeting of the American Geophysical Union.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A brief recap about Titan: it is Saturn’s largest moon (may have even been a captured mini-planet!), has a thick atmosphere, various geology, and is thought to be a “primordial Earth” (or what Earth may have been in its young development billions of years ago!)\nLet’s take a look at the recent weather forecasts…\nA recent study led by doctoral student Rajani Dhingra at the University of Idaho would analyze images from the Cassini spacecraft for evidence of seasonal summer rainfalls, especially in the northern pole where the giant lake regions of Titan reside. However, the team ran into a problem- there were no clouds like models predicted.\nOn an image taken in summer 2016, Dhingra and her team identified a reflective feature near Titan’s northern pole. This feature was not present in previous images and covered over 46,000 square miles.\nWhat was it?\nTurns out, it’s analogous to looking at the reflection off wet sidewalks. The feature was a reflection of sunlight against a recently wet surface, attributing to a methane rainfall event.\nWhat’s the next step?\nNow to compare Earth’s early climate models and behavior to that of Titan. Where Earth has a yearly cycle of 4 seasons, 1 season on Titan lasts nearly 7 years!\nBut this rainfall should provide clues to how seasons transition on Titan, lake behavior in the northern and southern hemispheres, and reactions of the rain to the various geologic features.\nYou can read her paper here: https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2018GL080943\nThank you for reading and come back next week for a look at Cleo the Spider!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The temperature is so high there, that it’s hot enough to boil iron!\nThe planet in question is named WASP-121b. It’s a “hot Jupiter” located approximately 900 light years from Earth.\nWASP-121b has a greater mass and radius than Jupiter, making it much puffier.\nThe exoplanet orbits its host star every 1.3 days, and the two bodies are about as close as they can be to each other without the star’s gravity ripping the planet apart. This close proximity also means that the top of the atmosphere is heated to a blazing hot 2,500 degrees Celsius — the temperature at which iron exists in gas rather than solid form.\nScientists from the University of Exeter and University of Maryland have discovered glowing water molecules in WASP-121b’s atmosphere.\nResearchers have found that a “hot Jupiter” exoplanet named WASP-121b (left) has a stratosphere hot enough to boil iron. The planet is as close to its host star (right) as possible without the star’s gravity ripping the planet apart.Credit: Engine House VFX, At-Bristol Science Centre, University of Exeter\nPrevious research spanning the past decade has indicated possible evidence for stratospheres on other exoplanets, but this is the first time that glowing water molecules have been detected — the clearest signal yet to indicate an exoplanet stratosphere.\n“When it comes to distant exoplanets, which we can’t see in the same detail as other planets here in our own solar system, we have to rely on proxy techniques to reveal their structure,” said Drake Deming, a professor of astronomy at UMD and a co-author of the study. “The stratosphere of WASP-121b so hot it can make water vapor glow, which is the basis for our analysis.”\nThe stratosphere of WASP-121b so hot it can make water vapor glow, but why is this happening?\nIn Earth’s stratosphere, ozone traps ultraviolet radiation from the sun, which raises the temperature of this layer of atmosphere. Other solar system bodies have stratospheres, too — methane is responsible for heating in the stratospheres of Jupiter and Saturn’s moon Titan, for example.\nIn solar system planets, the change in temperature within a stratosphere is typically less than 100 degrees Celsius. However, on WASP-121b, the temperature in the stratosphere rises by 1,000 degrees Celsius.\n“We’ve measured a strong rise in the temperature of WASP-121b’s atmosphere at higher altitudes, but we don’t yet know what’s causing this dramatic heating,” said Nikolay Nikolov, co-author and research fellow at the University of Exeter. “We hope to address this mystery with upcoming observations at other wavelengths.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The rains were scanty or deficient in 44 per cent of the country's 524 meteorological districts, while being normal in 40 per cent and excess in the remaining 16 per cent.\nStating that not only the IMD but even European and US agencies had got their predictions wrong for the South-West monsoon this time round, the Minister said that this does not mean giving up on making forecasts. \"Not only do we need forecasts, but we also need to improve our own systems. The European or American models will not be adequate since they are based on the Northern latitudes and not on the atmospheric and wind circulation patterns prevalent in our 0-40 degree latitude conditions,\" he specified.\nMr Sibal said that the proposed Rs 500-crore investment plan of the IMD over the next two years, subject to the Planning Commission approval, would cover installing dense network of satellite-based rain gauge stations for online monitoring and automatic weather surface stations for adequate coverage of weather data. It would also include setting up wind profilers, a dense network of radars for complete coverage of coastal areas for cyclone monitoring.\nThe Government plans to develop an integrated analysis-forecast system with improved data assimilation with the use of high-density data. This is aimed at fine-tuning the model forecast and downscaling it to district level, using statistical tools and GIS (geographical information system).\nMoreover, starting August 15, the Government will start making available its latest weather updates and forecasts up to seven days at the district level and at its Web site. It also plans to give farm advisories based on weather forecast at district level. IMD has introduced an integrated meteorological data reception and analysis system (IMDRAS) that enables reception of processed information even in remote areas through a personal computer.\n\"While this data currently reaches up to state level, we will ensure that this analysed data reaches the district level from August 15.

The southern lights -- the aurora australis -- are similarly focused on the southern magnetic pole.\nWe asked Neal Brown, a scientist from Alaska who delights in explaining the aurora borealis, what accounts for these light shows. He started by telling us that several streams of particles from the sun can create the lights. The constant, low-level solar wind operates 24/7, delivering a flow of electrons and protons from the sun, creating a full-time but rather faint aurora.\nThe real fireworks occur when a big mass of junk is ejected from the sun by a solar flare or a coronal mass ejection creating a giant stream of fast-moving particles.\nAs they enter the tenuous atmosphere high above Earth, these fast-moving charged particles excite atoms they strike, raising electrons into higher orbits. The aurora's light comes from the emission of a photon -- light particle -- that occurs when an electron drops back to a lower orbit. More on the aurora.\nSince solar storm particles are moving, they are an electric current. When they move in Earth's changing magnetic field (which rotates once a day), the result is an electric generator that can produce an enormous current -- millions of amps.\nThat changing electrical current produces, in turn, a changing magnetic field. And because changing magnetic fields induce electrical currents in any conductor, major solar flares can cause currents to develop in spacecraft, power lines and pipelines.\nAnd that's why solar eruptions make operators of these expensive machines as skittish as a long shot at the Kentucky Derby.\nWhat have they been writing about the dangers of the sun?\n|There are 1\n2 3 4 5\n6 pages in this feature.\nBibliography | Credits | Feedback | Search","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This strip of land, called Tornado Alley, is comprised of states including Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, Iowa, South Dakota, North Dakota and Texas. However, the exact makeup of Tornado Alley isn’t set in stone, as it’s more of a colloquial term than scientific fact.\nIn either event, the region’s high level of tornadoes has led to the powerful weather patterns leaving a mark in the minds of those who live there. Tornadoes are unpredictable and dangerous, so it’s not surprising that people who encounter them could create superstitions about them. Here are some of the most prolific myths from Tornado Alley about the dangerous twisters that frequent the area.\nCommon Tornado Alley Myths\nOne common myth holds that you can lessen the damage a tornado will do to your home by opening the windows. The idea behind this myth is that tornadoes have such lower internal atmospheric pressure that when they pass over your home, if the windows are closed, the rushing air pressure from within can cause them to explode.\nThis is a myth, however: if a tornado passes over your home, whether the windows are up or down, it’s likely to just destroy it. It’s not the air pressure you’re worried about when a tornado passes by, it’s the high wind speeds.\nWhere Tornadoes Can Go\nAnother myth occasionally heard in Tornado Alley is that tornadoes have certain things they can’t do. You’ll occasionally hear that tornadoes can’t cross rivers, or they can’t climb mountains, or they can’t strike in city centers. This, however, is also untrue. No spot is safe from a tornado: they can appear wherever a supercell forms, and no landmass or natural structure can prevent them from moving over it.\nMake no mistake: despite a popular misconception, highway overpasses are not safe shelters from tornadoes. A widely-circulate video of a news crew avoiding a tornado under and overpass in 1991 led to this misconception, though that scenario was highly unlikely and a terrible example of where to take shelter.\nAn overpass acts as a wind tunnel when directly struck by a tornado. The Venturi effect increases the wind speed by a huge factor, making it more likely that you’ll be lifted by the tornado and seriously injured.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This brings the Austin area into a neutral period between La Niña and El Niño, which could ease drought conditions, according to Michelle L'Heureux, ENSO expert at the Climate Prediction Center for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. According to the NOAA Climate Prediction Center's three-month outlooks, El Niño is likely to take over the Central Texas area around the end of the summer and early fall.\n\"The neutral period between La Niña and El Niño is important to us because when [La Niña and El Niño] form, they can exert an influence on the overlying tropical atmospheric circulation,\" L'Heureux said. \"Because the tropical Pacific is so large, this distributes heat and momentum differently to the atmosphere and, as a result, can shift the position of the jet stream that influences North America.\"\nL'Heureux said without La Niña or El Niño, this cascade of effects is nonexistent, therefore leaving the normal weather patterns to take over during the ENSO neutral period.\n\"What that means for us is that chances are we will have normal spring precipitation,\" said Timothy Loftus, general manager of the Barton Springs/Edwards Aquifer Conservation District. \"Normal is a relative term in Texas, but in May and June—our two rainiest months in Austin—we are hopeful that we will get that average rainfall.\"\nHowever, Randall Mena, public information specialist for Austin Water, said the anticipated rain amounts are \"unlikely to lift us out of our current drought for many months.\"\n\"Regardless of rainfall, in an ideal world, conservation would be a way of life,\" Lotus said. \"We do not want to only practice conservation when we are in a drought—it should be practiced 365/24/7.\"\nMena said Austinites should take steps to prepare their homes, both indoors and outdoors, to be water-wise. To help, Austin Water has compiled a checklist with tips and tricks for saving water year-round.\nAustin Water has reached a halfway point for installing smart meters, which replace the analog meters currently used by residents, Mena said. The expected completion date is 2025. Additionally, Austin Water is working on its Water Forward Plan—Austin's 100-year integration water resource plan. Mena said Austin Water is also working to complete its first five-year update to the Water Forward Plan and is targeting plan completion by 2024.\n\"We encourage community members to visit the Water Forward 2024 Speakup Austin! page by clicking here for project updates and to provide input,\" Mena said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

U.S. Gulf of Mexico offshore wells account for 5% of total U.S. natural gas production.\nOn Friday, October natural gas futures settled at $2.657, down $0.053 or -1.96%.\nHurricane Laura tore through Louisiana on Thursday, killing six people and flattening buildings across a wide watch of the state before moving into Arkansas with heavy rains.\nLaura caused less mayhem than forecasts predicted – but officials said it remained a dangerous storm and that it would take days to assess the damage. At least 867,000 homes and businesses in Louisiana, Texas and Arkansas remained without power on Thursday afternoon.\nLaura was downgraded to a tropical depression by the NHC at 02:00 GMT, and the forecaster said it will move to the mid-Mississippi Valley later on Friday and then to the mid-Atlantic states on Saturday.\nCooler Weather Outlook Encourages Profit-Taking\nFriday’s price action suggests that weather will remain at the forefront. The latest weather outlooks indicated that Friday’s temperatures may have been the hottest day remaining this summer. Bespoke Weather Services said demand could fluctuate between normal and “somewhat above normal” heading into the first half of September. This is a little cooler than what forecasts had been suggesting even a few days ago, with all guidance pointing to cooler weather in the central United States and heat mostly back West.\n“This looks similar to what we have seen this month as well, spatially, although this month wound up another hot one, as western heat overwhelmed any cooling farther east,” Bespoke said. “It is not the ‘typical’ La Nina pattern, however, which may be the atmosphere’s way of suggesting this indeed will be a weak La Nina heading into the cold season.”\nShort-Term Negatives Adding Up\nHurricane Laura caused extensive power outages and brought with it cooler temperatures so Friday’s late session weakness was not really a surprise. More importantly, the storm brought liquefied natural gas (LNG) demand to a stunning halt. According to reports, both the Sabine Pass and Cameron export terminals shut down operations before Laura washed ashore.\nAlthough pipeline notices indicated remanning efforts would be underway beginning Friday, the speed of the LNG recovery is more uncertain, according to NatGasWeather.\nNatural Gas Intelligence (NGI) data showed feed gas deliveries at around 2.8 Bcf/d for Friday, which is up from the 2.3 Bcf/d low recorded on Wednesday, but sharply off the 5.0 Bcf/d highs seen the previous week.\nAlthough prices closed lower on Friday, the futures market put in a strong weekly performance. LNG production and demand may be down because of the storm, but this is likely to be a short-term matter. We expect LNG demand to bounce back relatively quickly and rise into the fall season. This is likely to underpin prices or at least encourage buyers to come in on breaks. Meanwhile, the high storage at this point in the injection season remains a concern that could lead to limited gains.\nFor a look at all of today’s economic events, check out our economic calendar.\nRead More: Natural Gas Price Fundamental Daily Forecast","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But when it comes to rain, acid rain is not what you would expect. Continue reading to learn more about acid rain, including whether or not it is safe to drink.\nAcid rain, also referred to as acid deposition, is made acidic as a result of atmospheric pollution exposure. Some atmospheric pollution is caused by natural sources, such as volcanoes. Additional causes include vehicles, heavy equipment, manufacturing, oil refining, and other industries.\nBut the most common cause for this type of atmospheric pollution is industrial burning of coal and other fossil fuels to generate electricity, which produce waste gases that contain harmful sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOX). When these sulfur and nitrogen oxides combine with the water and oxygen in the air, it forms acids.\nWhat is Acid Deposition?\nWater acidity and alkalinity is represented as a pH value, which is measured on scale that ranges from 0 to 14, with 14 being most alkaline, 7 being neutral, and 0 being most acidic. Rain is considered “acid rain” when it has a pH level between 4.2 and 4.4.\nAccording to the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), acid deposition can include rain, snow, fog, hail, and even dust. At high levels, it can be damaging to plants, landscapes, and the environment as a whole. But in moderation, acid deposition is nothing to be concerned about.\nYou see, most regular rain has an average pH of 5.6, making it slightly acidic. This is a result of water and carbon dioxide reacting to one another in the air, and it is not dangerous to humans, living organisms, nor plants. After all, if you think about it, drinking water does not usually have a neutral pH value since it retains dissolved mineral content. This means that most acid rain is probably safe to drink, although it is not recommended.\nDrinking Rain Water\nIn terms of drinking rain water, you can do so safely if you boil it and filter it, first. Boiling rain water will remove any harmful pathogens, while filtering it will eliminate additional unwanted impurities, such as chemicals, dust, pollen, mold, and other contaminants.\nWhen collecting rain water for drinking purposes, it is best to collect it directly from the sky into a clean barrel or bucket.

In 2004, the European Space Agency announced that Mars Express had detected small amounts of methane in the martian atmosphere. This was exciting news because on Earth, 95% of methane comes from biological sources—mostly microbes and cows, but we’re pretty sure there are no cows on Mars.\nMethane should break down in the martian atmosphere over the course of about 300 years. So, a source to replenish the methane is required. There also appeared to be geographic and temporal variability in the methane levels. Ground-based measurements from Earth by a team led by Michael Mumma of NASA Goddard in 2003 and 2006 also pointed to localized methane release that varied over time, although these results were not published until 2009. However, the results from both Mumma and Mars Express were somewhat controversial among the scientific community. Why would the methane not be equally mixed throughout the atmosphere? Where could it possibly be coming from? And were the spectroscopic detections of methane really strong enough to be distinguished from noise?\nThe Curiosity rover was sent to Mars in 2012, equipped with a laser to look for this methane. In 2013, NASA announced that Curiosity did not detect methane at levels that the tunable laser spectrometer (TLS) could measure. The lowest amounts the TLS is capable of measuring are six times lower than the previously reported estimates for methane concentrations in the atmosphere, so this seemed to be a bit of a nail in the coffin for martian methane.\nBut time was the key. Over the next two years, Curiosity detected both background levels of atmospheric methane and a 60-sol (martian day) period where big “burps” were observed, causing the methane levels to spike. There was no easy way to explain these burps. They seemed to be too large to come from interplanetary dust or comets, two hypotheses proposed for the methane source. Methane can be produced when UV radiation interacts with organic material, which we know exists in the martian soil, but this wouldn’t explain the seasonal variations.\nThe newly-released methane results now cover a 3-Mars-year period and confirm strong, repeatable seasonal variations. Methane levels in the atmosphere peak in late southern hemisphere summer into autumn. According to the scientists behind these results, this suggests the methane is slowly being released from underground reservoirs. But that doesn’t answer the question of how the methane is actually being produced. Remember: Since the lifetime of methane in the martian atmosphere is so short, it must be continually produced for us to see it in the concentrations we do.\nThis leaves two main potential candidates for the methane source: Geological and/or biological. Both have big implications for Mars.\nA biological source of methane is of course the most sensational. As I mentioned before, most of Earth’s atmospheric methane is produced by microbes. So, perhaps methanogens—microbes that “eat” carbon dioxide (which makes up most of Mars’ atmosphere) and produce methane—exist in the martian subsurface where they are protected from radiation.\nThe probably more likely, and less exciting from a headline standpoint, is geologic activity. On Earth, methane can be released through a process called serpentinization. The TL;DR description of serpentinization is that it requires water interacting with rocks. Essentially the thought is that serpentinization may be occurring at depth, producing methane that is then released through cracks up to the surface.\nTo have liquid water interacting with rocks on Mars, that means you need a heat source. Until recently, scientists thought Mars’ core was solid and we’d seen no evidence for volcanic activity younger than about 100 million years ago. But the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution mission (MAVEN), which arrived in 2014, observed auroral activity at Mars. And this requires a magnetic field. So, perhaps Mars isn’t geologically dead on the inside after all! The InSight lander, on its way to the Red Planet right now, will help to answer this question. Stay tuned!\nOn Earth, generally heat + liquid water = life. So, this might not be an either/or scenario on Mars. Perhaps geology and biology both play roles in the story of martian methane. With the data we have right now though, we can’t say for sure one way or the other.\nThe conclusion of this article might be wholly unsatisfying: We still don’t know exactly where methane on Mars is coming from. It will take more time and data to help pin down the answer. India’s Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM), which arrived at Mars in 2014, is equipped with a sensor to investigate atmospheric methane, but a design flaw with the instrument likely means it won’t be able to collect definitive data. Meanwhile, Europe’s ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) just settled into its science orbit in April of this year and is now collecting data to help understand the mystery of martian methane. Putting all of the pieces together from the ground and from orbit will help us paint the larger picture of where this methane is coming from.\n[Sorry to spoil any of your dreams of martian cows.]","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Mississippi River is above flood stage at Canton, Hannibal and Louisiana, Mo. The river is expected to crest in the coming days about 4 to 6 feet above flood stage. No major damage is expected, but Hannibal has installed its flood wall to protect its downtown, including the Mark Twain sites.\nPortions of the Missouri River also are near or at technical flood stage, though only partially due to rain. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said Thursday that higher-than-normal water releases from dams northwest of Missouri will continue through the fall season.\nThe Corps said the water release is necessary because high amounts of runoff caused a large amount of water to be stored in reservoirs.\nHowever, the Mississippi River isn't the only river of concern.\n\"We're expecting moderate flooding on many of the area rivers,\" Cole said, adding that the entire WGEM coverage area has been under flash flood watches. If those flash floods would happen, the water would flow into smaller rivers throughout the area within a day or two. In the meantime, Cole said WGEM's concern is flash flooding, and the Missouri State Highway Patrol urged drivers to avoid flooded roadways, noting that even one foot of water can move swiftly and prove deadly.\n\"As we have a lot of folks that will be at ball games, do not drive into flooded roadways,\" Cole said. \"That is not a wise move.\"\nThe patrol also encouraged boaters to take extra precautions because rain-swollen waterways can make for faster currents and unpredictable conditions.\nIt's unclear how much of the water will help farmers severely impacted by the summer-long drought. The U.S. Drought Monitor map shows that conditions have eased across much of the state due to rain over the past couple of weeks. Twenty-one percent of Missouri is now listed in severe drought or worse, compared with 37 percent a week earlier.\nThe wet weather is bringing relief from hot, steamy weather. Cole said that things are expected to calm down by midday Sunday, saying that the weather should be sunny and temperatures should be in the 70s and 80s by midweek.\nWet conditions, with more rain expected Saturday, forced organizers to cancel two area events.\nQuanada Executive Director Megan Duesterhaus said the weekend's heavy rains canceled the Aim to Stop Domestic violence 3-D archery shoot planned for Saturday and Sunday.\nWhile prepared for some rain, the amount of rain has raised questions about the volunteers' ability to safety set up the course, which involves climbing bluffs and crossing creeks while carrying heavy targets.\nDuesterhaus said Quanada looks forward to planning next year's archery shoots to support the agency's services for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.\nWet conditions also canceled Saturday's Ribfest planned at the Mark Twain Cave Complex in Hannibal, Mo.\nThe ribs and wings grilling competition, featuring live music, was a benefit for Hannibal Free Clinic. Organizers hope for better weather for next year's event.\nThe Associated Press contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Overall, things have shifted slightly warmer across much of northern VA, DC, MD, NJ and southeastern PA in areas near and west of I-95. With such marginal temperatures of 33-36F at the surface, snowfall rates will be the big thing to watch tomorrow to see who will cash in and who will get stuck with little or nothing. Sloppy, wet snow for the major population centers along and near I-95.\nThe difference between 4 inches and 8 inches within that contour range will be elevation. Lower elevations can expect totals closer to 4-6 inches, with the higher elevations getting more into the 6-8 inch range. Along the Blue Ridge and Central Appalachians, a few of the higher peaks could hit 8+ inches. I didn’t include it on the map, but I wouldn’t be that surprised if there was one or two reports of 8+ inches in the highest elevations of north-central MD.\nSome of the models even show some sleet mixing in, mostly from far northeastern MD into southeastern PA and NJ. That may actually be a blessing in disguise, as sleet can accumulate more easily than snow in marginal temperature situations, and a base of sleet would make it easier for any snow afterward to stick.\nForecast confidence remains on the low side, mostly with the eastern edge of the contours where the rain/snow/mix is the most problematic. A one or two degree change to the surface temperature could mean a big difference for some areas, both to the high side and the low side. There’s also still the question of where the best banding will set up, which will produce the heavier rates and increase the chance for higher accumulations for a select few. My best guess for that is just inside the eastern edge of the 4-8 inch contour up into the 8-12 inch contour.\nPerhaps if we can get some big, fat dendrites cascading down along I-95, then that area could actually get a decent accumulation. However, looking at the temperature profiles, that seems pretty unlikely.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

At 9:20, sleet mixed with the snow. At 10:45, as the temperature rose above freezing, that turned to rain, which lasted until about 3 p.m.\nCold air over the Lehigh Valley and warm, moist air from the south that moved over the cold air caused the precipitation, Loeper said.\nRecent temperatures, which have been warmer than usual, kept the snow from staying on the ground and streets too long, Loeper said. \"It would have to get into the 20s for us to get real travel problems,\" he said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Tornado expert Dr. Greg Forbes says Frances spawned the second highest number of tornadoes for a U.S. landfalling tropical cyclone.\nSpring is known for its strong storm systems that can create violent twisters. However, it's not the only season known for tornadoes. Autumn is considered the \"second\" tornado season.\n(MORE: Today's Severe Storm Threat)\n\"The second half of October and especially November can often be a second season for tornadoes and severe thunderstorms,\" said tornado expert Dr. Greg Forbes. \"In many ways, this is the counterpart to spring, when strong fronts and upper-air systems march across the United States. When enough warm, moist air accompanies these weather systems, the unstable conditions yield severe thunderstorms and sometimes tornadoes.\"\nWhile most of the largest tornado outbreaks still occur in spring, autumn has its share of storms as well. Dr. Forbes examined the storm statistics and found six of the largest 55 known tornado outbreaks occurred in October and November.\n(INTERACTIVE MAP: Radar, Watches, and Warnings)\nMay is still the peak month for tornadoes. Up to 52 percent of September's tornado outbreaks are due to landfalling tropical storms and hurricanes. October and November's tornadoes are caused by strong cold fronts and low pressure systems affecting the South and sometimes the Midwest.\nSo far, 2013 is on pace to be a record low tornado year. January was the only month that's been above average for tornadoes. It had 74 tornadoes, 2.3 times the average number of tornadoes.\nThe numbers don't mean it has been an easy tornado year. At least 46 people have died in the U.S.from tornadoes this year. Two extremely destructive tornadoes devastated towns in Oklahoma in May. A severe storm system Oct. 2 may have spawned as many as 12 tornadoes, according to preliminary estimates.\n\"It's a been a year with some notorious tornadoes,\" said Forbes said.\nMORE ON WEATHER.COM: Storm Watch\n- Storm Watch\n- WATCH: Shocking Photobomb\n- Severe Storms and Tornado Warning in Southwest\n- BEACH CHAOS: 1 Dead, 13 Injured\n- Another Child Dies in Hot Car\n- Breaking: Tornado Hits Boston\n- World Record Shark Caught!\n- Flesh-Eating Bacteria Where We Swim?\n- Cute Baby Turtles Explode from Nest\n- Meteor Showers To Look Out For\n- Boston Area Sees Heavy Tree Damage\n- Possible Depression in the Atlantic\n- Watch Cooling Towers Come Tumbling Down\n- Alarming Spread of Deadly Ebola Virus\n- Earth's Near Miss from Solar Storm\n- Tornado Destroys Field of Crops\n- Missing Kangaroo in Oklahoma!\n- This Sandwich WON'T Melt\n- Surfing Dogs Hit the Waves\n- Better Sense of Smell Dogs or Elephants\n- New Water Balloon Ammunition\n- Did All Dinosaurs have Feathers?\n- Fisherman Rescued from Typhoon Waves\n- A Weatherman for 84 years\n- Passenger Mistakes Exit for Bathroom\n- Don't Let Mosquitos Bug You this Summer\n- 'Creepy Dolls' Left at Homes\n- Costa Concordia Finally Arrives At Port\n- New Warning From Scientists\n- Chihuahua Puppy Gets Wheelchair\n- What was Spotted on Radar?\n- National Dance Day\n- Take a Ride on Record Roller Coaster\n- Millions of Mayflies Cover Everything\n- Lightning Kills 45 Cows\n- Dramatic Satellite Images of Drought\n- Dad Kicked Off Plane Due to Tweet\n- Brothers Share Heartwarming Bond\n- Teen Attacked by Barracuda in Daytona Beach\n- Man Bitten by Gator Twice\n- Massive Python Gets Physical\n- Largest Ketchup Bottle for Sale\n- Raw: Winds and Rain in Taiwan\n- See How You Could Win $25 Million From NASA\n- View From Above A World Hub\n- Inside the Mystery Hole\n- Secret Bear Feeding Spot FOUND\n- Boys Perish Soon After This Selfie\n- Sun Goes Quiet After Recent Activity\n- Man Dies in Stunning Beach Collapse\n- You Won't Believe What She Did\n- Teen Dies While Attempting World Record\n- Hot Air Balloon Collides with Power Line\n- Sharks Send Tourists TOWARDS Beach?\n- Subways You Must See!\n- New Clues to Lives of Ancient Mummies!\n- Raw: Typhoon in Taiwan\n- Whoa.

I saw people taking them seriously and preparing accordingly.\"\nKoon says the state's emergency management team proved its mettle this season.\n\"I feel good about the response that the state and local emergency managers and other public safety officials played this summer in communicating to the public about what the potential consequences of the storm were, and then our response and recovery from those storms.\"\nThe 2012 hurricane season was the third busiest on record.

For those flying eastbound in this jet, there will be quite a tailwind.\"\nA Virgin Atlantic spokesperson said: “At Virgin Atlantic, we assess all factors involving weather including jet streams. Utilising the strong tail winds associated with the jet stream increases aircraft fuel efficiency, reduces emissions and can benefit our customers with early arrivals to their destination. When planning the aircraft’s route and flight level, the safety and comfort of our customers and crew is always our top priority and is never compromised.”\nThey also stated that as a result of this, the flight arrived 45 minutes ahead of schedule.\nOne aircraft headed from New Jersey to Lisbon reportedly reached speeds of 1,344 kph (835 mph).\nDespite all of this, the planes did not break the sound barrier even though they were going quicker than the speed of sound - this is due to them not travelling quicker than the sound relative to the strong air around them in the jet stream.\nThe fast and narrow current of air known as the Atlantic jet stream flows from west to east and encircles the planet, with pilots using it to cut down on travel time and fuel use.\nIt's basically a boost.\nThe average speeds here are usually 177 kph (110mph), but it can go higher depending on the time of year.Featured Image Credit: Getty Stock photo","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

If a tornado overcame them at night, it could be fatal depending on the proximity of the funnel cloud.\nDuring the day, if peregrines were to get too close to the debris field of an active tornado (there were reports of debris falling a mile or more on each side of this tornado at its peak), a falcon could be hit by materials in the air.\nWould a falcon alter its migratory course in the face of a funnel cloud and the surrounding aerial debris? It seems likely that they would recognize the threat and react accordingly. But funnel clouds can drop out of the sky very rapidly. Some are nearly invisible until they hit the ground and kick up debris.\nWhat about breeding falcons like American Kestrels in this case? Kestrels would be the only species nesting in Oklahoma at this time. I don't believe that Prairie Falcons nest this far east.\nMost kestrels nest inside cavities of varying types like holes in trees, buildings or even holes in cliffs. Unless it was a direct hit, it would seem they would be protected. Nest boxes? Maybe not depending on the force of the wind.\nIn any case, Island Girl was a bit too close to this event for me.

They were fishing on Punggol Jetty.\nHere's what I found out about lightning in Singapore.\nMost of this information is from Lightning Activity in Singapore on the NEA website\nWhy does Singapore have one of the highest rate of lightning activity in the world?\nLying near the Equator, the weather is hot and humid almost all year round. Conditions are favourable for the development of lightning producing thunderstorm clouds.\nHow often does lightning strike in Singapore?\nAn average of 171 thunderstorm days (days when thunder is heard) are recorded annually in Singapore.\nIs there a lightning 'season' in Singapore?\nThe monthly distribution of the number of thunder days shows a peak in April/May and November, with an average of 20 thunder days and a low of 4 to 6 days in the months of January and February respectively.\nWhat time of the day does lightning most frequently occur in Singapore?\nThunderstorm tend to occur between 2 pm and 6 pm in the afternoon for all months of the year as diurnal heating and convection play an important role in thunderstorm development here.\nWhat damage can lightning cause?\nWhile most lightning strike the ground harmlessly, their destructive power can be tremendous. Lightning can ignite forest fires, damage electronic equipment, disrupt electrical power and telecommunication systems. Lightning also cause damage to trees in parks and gardens.\nThe SICC website posted these photos of lightning damage.The photo on the left shows a direct hit to the bitumen cart path. The chunks forced out by the lightning weighed about 5 kg each. This Casuarina tree in the photo on the right was destroyed by a lightning strike. Mud was thrown over the cart path where the strike grounded out. Portions of the tree were found up to 20 metres away.\nSee also Lightning strikes the Merlion. This happened on 28 Feb 09 and damaged this Singapore icon.\nHow does lightning hurt people?\nThere are two major causes of injuries and deaths from lightning. One is being struck directly and the other is a phenomenon known as 'side flash'. A side flash can occur when a person standing near a tree or metal pipe, frame or unprotected shelter (particularly those with metal roofing) touches these objects or are close to them when a lightning discharge occur. The person becomes a convenient conductor for the electric current to the ground and hence is injured or killed.\nHow many people are hurt by lightning in Singapore?\nIn Singapore, records on lightning fatalities show an average of 0.35 deaths per million population (year 2000-2003) as compared to 0.6 in the United States, 0.2 in the United Kingdom and 1.5 in South Africa. Also deaths from lightning are higher in April and November. The victims were often in open areas such as sea, beaches and football fields.\nAlso most deaths in sheltered areas occurred while the victims were under a hut, a shed or trees. (Hmm ... so taking shelter doesn't seem like a fool proof way to avoid lightning strikes).\nIs there a product to protect from lightning strike?\nHere's some extracts from Safe conduct when lightning strikes by Lin Yanqin, Channel NewsAsia 1 Nov 07;\nA special material called EquiVolt conducts electrical currents during a lightning strike keeping those beneath it safe. The lightweight material — the first of its kind — can be used to make raincoats, tents and groundsheets.NewScientist on 23 Aug 07 also reported the development of a portable pyramid made of aluminium tubing. Interestingly, it was reported that \"research on the device followed a request from the Ministry of Defence in Singapore\".\nMost fatalities and injuries are not caused by lightning striking a person directly, but by it hitting the ground and generating voltage differences, said Prof Liew from National University of Singapore's Electrical and Computer Engineering Department.\n\"A person standing in the vicinity would have differences between his or her legs, which would then result in the person getting electrocuted,\" he explained.\nThe solution, he said, was not an insulating material, but rather a conducting material that equalised the voltage differences, leaving the person standing on the fabric or in a tent unharmed.\nHow does NEA monitor lightning in Singapore?\nBesides visual observations and the use of weather radar, the Meteorological Services Division monitors the development and movements of lightning activities within 250 kilometre range of Singapore with an advanced lightning detection and tracking system.\nWhat kind of weather is associated with lightning?\nThunderstorms and the associated lightning activities, unlike large scale weather systems such as typhoons and hurricanes, are relatively short-lived severe weather phenomena. Each individual thunderstorm cloud normally has a life-span of 1 to 1.5 hours and covers a horizontal distance of a few kilometres. Larger storms which last longer are usually made up of a congregation of several smaller individual thunderstorm cells. A thunderstorm usually moves and changes its shape as it grows and decays. New cells usually form near existing storms.\nWhat kind of lightning warnings does NEA provide?\nInformation on the expectation of lightning activity is provided by the Meteorological Services Division through its 12-hr local weather forecasts. Besides being broadcast by radio stations, the forecast can be obtained from the telephone Weather Information Dissemination System (WIDS). Also lightning risk watch is provided to specific users on a subscription basis.\nMore lightning questions answered on Science Net on the Singapore Science Centre website\nWhy do some people die from lightning strikes but some do not?\nShort answer: Harm depends on variables (Basically, in my opinion it's really about being reckless AND unlucky).\nGruesome details: People hit by lightning suffer both extreme heat and damaging electricity from the bolt. Direct hits are not the only danger however. In open terrain, nearby strikes also can electrocute.\nIf I am wearing a rubber shoes and a bolt of lightning strike me, will I get electrocuted?\nShort answer: Yup.\nGruesome details: A lightning bolt (on average) has pushed its way through kilometres of air, so it will not be stopped by a few cm of rubber. People who have been struck by lightning often get their shoes (and/or clothes) blown off or blown apart from the powerful shock wave produced by the lightning strike. Similarly, rubber tires of a car provide no protection from lightning. The steel frame of a hard-topped vehicle provides increased protection if you are not touching metal.\nDuring rainy days, when there is thunder or lightning, we can't swim in the swimming pool because we will get electrocuted. But what about fish in ponds, lakes and oceans, won't they get electrocuted?\nShort answer: When you swim in open water, your head above water naturally becomes the closest object for lightning to strike.\nScientific explanation: When lightning strikes the surface of open water, the electrical energy is distributed to the vast body of water. As a result, the damage done to freshwater and marine life is minimised.\nFinal comment: This is why it is important to keep an eye on the weather during shore trips. To pack up and leave or take shelter BEFORE lightning starts to discharge. Not all shelters will protect you in lightning. Only those armed with lightning protection (fortunately, this is the case for most public shelters in our parks).\n|Click on image for larger view|\nfrom Lightning city Tropical weather makes Singapore one of the world's lightning capitals by Feng Zengkun & Kezia Toh Straits Times 22 Nov 11;\nMore lightning reports\n- Lightning city Tropical weather makes Singapore one of the world's lightning capitals by Feng Zengkun & Kezia Toh Straits Times 22 Nov 11;\n- Two hit by lightning on fishing trip; one dies by Leonard Lim & Elizabeth Soh Straits Times 21 Nov 11;\n- Lightning that hit Laguna golfer likely to be from outside watch radius Lee U-Wen Business Times 6 Jan 11;","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Delhi and negihbouring areas also received heavy rainfall in the last 48 hours leading to water-logging in many areas.\nWhile Delhi recorded 10.9 mm of rain till Friday evening, Uttar Pradesh, too, received moderate to heavy rainfall at a few places over the past 24 hours. The maximum temperature in Delhi was recorded at 30.7 degrees celsius, three less than normal and the minimum was 25.5 degrees celsius, one less than the usual.\nIn the wake of torrential rainfall, many districts in Rajasthan, Himachal Pradesh and Haryana are facing a flood-like situation. However, the dry spell continued in Punjab and farmers suffered a loss of Rs 5,200 crore due to rain deficit.\nAlthough, the Met Department said that August rains won't change India's rain-deficit status, but the country could get good rainfall activity over the next month. Director-Long Range Forecast, India Met Department (IMD) DS Pai said, \"In the last two weeks, the maximum improvement was in the Northwest and Central India. In South Peninsula also there was close to 100 per cent rainfall. But Northeast India was deficient by around 25 per cent only in August. But overall, except for Northeast India, we could get good rainfall activity over other parts.\"\nHeavy rains in Rajasthan disrupt normal life\nRajasthan, which had a rainfall deficit of 29.69 per cent on August 9 and was fearing a drought, has now received 4.89 per cent above normal rainfall after over two days of downpour, Met Department officials said.\nThousands have been shifted to relief camps as many towns and colonies are submerged in water. The Met Department has also predicted more rainfall in the next few hours.\nAn elderly couple was killed after a wall collapsed on them in Churu, two others died in Sawaimadhopur and one each in Bharatpur and Ajmer, taking the death toll to 33, officials said.\nThe civil administration in Sikar, Churu, Jhunjhunu, Dholpur, Bharatpur, Karoli and Dausa was struggling to provide relief with many low-lying areas in these districts as well as in Jaipur facing waterlogging. Various colonies and towns have been submerged and thousands of people have been shifted to relief camps and other safer places.\nLow-lying areas in Jaipur, Laxmangarh and Nawalgarh town in Sikar district and Sikar city, few villages near Chambal river in Dholpur district faced the brunt of the rainfall.\nThe Rajasthan government has asked the central team, which was scheduled to arrive here to assess the drought situation, to postpone their visit for some time because of the heavy rains, they said.\nChief Minister Ashok Gehlot has raised the compensation amount for the kin of those killed from Rs 1.5 lakh to Rs 2 lakh.\nWhile 10 persons have died in Jaipur, four were killed in Sikar. In Bhilwar and Churu, the toll was three each while it was two each in Bharatpurm, Dausa, Sawaimadhopur, Alwar and Dholpur. One person each in Tonk, Jhunjunu and Ajmer was also killed in rain related incidents. While 23 of the victims had drowned, two were electrocuted, one was killed by lightning and seven in various wall collapse incidents.\nHeavy rains bring traffic jams to Delhi's rush hour\nNew Delhi: Heavy rains on Friday lashed the national capital, bringing down the temperature but Delhiites had to face troubles while commuting due to waterlogged roads and traffic jams. The city received 10.9 mm rains between 8.30 am and 5.30 pm which brought the mercury below normal levels, MET officials said.\nThe maximum was recorded at 30.7 degree Celsius, three points below the normal, while the minimum was 25.5 deg C, one notch below normal.\nThe humidity level hovered between 84 and 100 per cent during the day.\nHowever, the rains caused traffic snarls and water logging at various places, causing problems for the commuters.\nThere were complaints of traffic jams between Moolchand and Defence Colony, Shanker Road and Ganga Ram Hospital, Sarai Rohilla and Anand Parvat and Bikaji Cama Place and Safdarjung Enclave due to water logging.\nThe city has been witnessing heavy to moderate showers for the past four days.\nHeavy rains lash some parts of HP triggering landslides\nHeavy rains lashed some parts of Himachal Pradesh, triggering landslides at some places and leading to slight drop in maximum temperatures. Several link rooads in the interiors of Kangra, Mandi, Sirmaur and Solan districts were blocked due to landslides. A large tree was uprooted in Cart road near Bemloe in Shimla causing disruption in traffic for several hours.\nSeveral tribal areas including Pooh and Kaza remained cut off from rest of the state as the vital bridge on Hindustan-Tibet national highway near Ribba, which was washed away three days ago, could not be restored.\nThe rains abated a bit in high altitude tribal areas and power generation in major projects like Nathpa-Jhakri (1500 MW) and Karchham-Wangtoo (1000 MW) was resumed as silt level came down to 3500 ppm against permissible limit of 4000 ppm.\nDharamsala in Kangra was wettest in the region with 184 mm of rains while Dharampur recorded 118 mm of rains, followed by Kandaghat 72 mm, Amb 61 mm, Nagrota Suriyan 55 mm, Nahan 40 mm state capital receiving 23 mm of rains.\nThe maximum temperature dropped from 32.2 degree Celsius to 31.4 degree Celsius at Una while Bhuntar recorded a high of 31.8 degree Celsius, and Sundernagar 27.4 degree Celsius.\nSolan had a high of 27 degree Celsius, while Dharamsala recorded 26.4 degree Celsius and Naha recorded maximum of 25.9 degree Celsius.\nShimla recorded maximum temperature of 20.1 degree Celsius, while Kalpa had a high of 23 degree Celsius.\nHowever, the minimum temperatures remained steady with Kalpa and Keylong in tribal areas coldest in the region with a low of 13 degree Celsius.\nThe local MeT office has predicted rains and thunderstorms in most parts of the state and heavy to very heavy rains in some isolated places in mid and lower hills.\nPunjab farmers bear Rs 5200-crore loss due to rain deficit\nMeanwhile, farmers in Punjab have suffered a loss of Rs 5,200 crore due to deficit rain during the current monsoon, government officials said on Friday. The Centre should have discharged its constitutional duty by announcing special economic package for the state but the proposal put forward by Punjab has not been considered as yet, Sohan Singh Thandal, Chief Parliamentary Secretary, Irrigation said.\nHe said the irrigation has been adversely affected due to deficit rain upto around 70 per cent, which caused a loss of Rs 5,200 crore to the farming community of Punjab.\nAlthough some regions of the state had witnessed rain in past few days, but the water level in the main dams is still very low.\nThe water flow in the rivers is 10 per cent low and the generation of the power through the hydro projects had taken a sharp plunge, he added.\nThandal said due to this natural calamity, the peasantry of the state has been forced to spend more money on diesel to irrigate their fields.\nThe state incurred Rs 7,000 crore in the month of June and July to purchase power by spending Rs 1656 crore more than the normal rates, he said.\nHe said the water level in the Bhakra Dam is 55.77 feet, Pong Dam at 29.54 feet, while the water level at Ranjit Sagar Dam is 13.95 meter low than the previous year during the present time.\nWith Additional Inputs from Agencies","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Here’s how to watch the show.\nThe Eta Aquarid meteor shower could produce up to 50 shooting stars per hour during its peak on Thursday (May 5), weather permitting.\nMeteor showers are medium-luminosity, which means darker skies will produce more meteors. According to Bill Cooke, head of NASA’s Meteoroid Environment Office, the best views will happen before dawn.\nThe moon will be in a crescent moon phase (about 15% full) when the showers peak. While the show is best seen from the Southern Hemisphere or near the equator, it is also visible to some northerly. Look for the constellation Aquarius, located in the southern sky.\nRelated: Meteor Shower Guide 2022: Watch Dates and Tips\nIf you’re hoping to take pictures of the Eta Aquarid meteor, our guide to shooting meteor showers can help. You can also use our best camera for astrophotography and best lens for astrophotography guide to prepare for the next meteor shower.\nAccording to Cooke, the best way to see a meteor is to lie on your back while looking straight up. That position will give the greatest view of the sky without neck strain.\nThe Eta Aquarids are related to Halley’s Comet, which returns to Earth every 76 years. The “shooting stars” you see will be dust particles or small pebbles that burn up high in the atmosphere. Meteorites, or the space rock that created it on the ground, tend to come from one-off fireballs of asteroid debris.\nMeteor showers are known for their fast-moving trails with long trains that, according to the Meteor Society of America, zip through the atmosphere at 41 miles (66 km) per day, according to the Meteor Society of America. second.\nEditor’s Note: If you took a great photo of the Eta Aquarid meteor or any other night sky sight and you want to share it with Space.com for a story or image gallery, send the image, comments and location information to email@example.com .\nFollow Elizabeth Howell on Twitter @howellspace.

Cold brings more powerful storms than warming. Warming has produced fewer hurricane and tornado, but a colder earth has produced some earth changing storms.\nBrian Fagan, in his book “The Little Ice Age”, states that,”throughout Europe, the years 1560-1600 were cooler and stormier, with late wine harvests and considerably stronger winds than those of the 20th Century. Storm activity increased by 85% in the second half of the 16th Century and the incidence of severe storms rose by 400%.”.\nHH Lamb comes to similar conclusions, “there was a greater intensity, and a greater frequency, of intense storm development during the Little Ice Age”, in his book “Historic Storms of the North Sea, British Isles and Northwest Europe”.\nEdward Bryant, in the book, “Natural Hazards”, gives us a rundown of some of the biggest storms:-\n- Four storms along the Dutch and German coasts in the 13thC killed at least 100,000 each. The worst is estimated to have killed 300,000.\n- North Sea storms in 1099, 1421 and 1446 also killed 100,000 each in England and the Netherlands.\n- By far the worst storm was the All Saints Day flood of 1570, when 400,000 people were killed throughout Western Europe.\n- The Great Storm of 1703 sank virtually all ships in the English Channel, with the loss of 8000 to 10000 lives.\n- Other storms with similar death tolls occurred in 1634, 1671, 1682, 1686, 1694 and 1717.\n- Much of the coastline of northern Europe owes its origin to this period of storms. For instance, storms reduced the size of the island of Heligoland from 60km to 1km.\n- The Great Drowning Disaster of 1362 eroded 15km landward of the Danish coast, destroying over 60 parishes.\n- The Lucia storm of 1287 carved out the Zuider Zee.\nIt was not just flooding that was a problem. There were many sand storms that caused great destruction, such as the great Culbin Sands storm in 1694, which blew so much sand over the Culbin Estate in Scotland, that the farm buildings themselves disappeared. The Estate became a desert and was never reclaimed.\nFull Story is HERE.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

John Kerry, Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, US, stressed the need to reduce methane and other SLCPs, pointing to a soon-to-be-published UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and CCAC report, which notes that, without the Global Methane Pledge launched in 2021, methane emissions will increase by up to 13% by 2030—a far cry from the 30% methane reductions needed to keep the temperature goal 1.5°C within reach.\nA panel of scientists further explored the Global Methane Assessment Baseline 2030 report later in the morning. The report outlines that, among others:\n- mitigating methane and other SLCPs is essential to achieve decarbonization goals;\n- mitigating SLCPs will enable further carbon dioxide (CO2) removal;\n- compared to constant present-day emissions, the baseline projections predict growth in methane emissions; and\n- achieving the low end of the Global Methane Pledge’s target would lead to a 36% reduction in emissions.\nDiscussing the report, the scientists commented on how closely linked methane and CO2 decarbonization are, despite their different shelf lives in the atmosphere. One scientist used a running metaphor to explain the efforts needed: “in this work, we need to run a sprint, a marathon, and an ultramarathon all at once.” The panel also discussed the need for socioeconomic and behavioral assessments to meet natural science assessments and help them maximize the impact of mitigation policy.\nLater in the afternoon, participants split into two sets of parallel sessions divided along six themes:\n- science, planning, and cross-cutting issues;\n- air quality, hydrofluorocarbons, health hazard evaluations, and heavy-duty vehicles and engines;\n- agriculture and food systems;\n- waste and wastewater;\n- coal; and\n- oil and gas.\nParticipants convened over drinks for an informal reception in the evening.\nAll ENB photos are free to use with attribution.

Reducing PFC emissions is an important environmental goal of the global aluminium industry.\nEGA’s emissions of PFCs were 22 kilogrammes per tonne of aluminium produced in 2017 compared to a global average of 380 kilogrames per tonne in 2016, the most recent year for which figures are available from the International Aluminium Institute.\nAt EGA’s newer Al Taweelah smelter, PFC emissions in 2017 were seven kilogrammes per tonne of aluminium produced.\nIn the aluminium industry, reported PFC emissions are known to be associated with momentary process imbalances known as Anode Effects.\nThese occur when the alumina concentration falls in the reduction cells in which aluminium is smelted.\nEGA is set to conduct new research with scientists from the University of New South Wales aiming to reduce what the industry terms ‘background’ PFC emissions – those that are from variations in reduction cell conditions that are too small to be detected and remedied by the control technology available today.\nThe research will focus on developing sophisticated technology to continuously monitor conditions inside reduction cells in great detail and semi-autonomously feed alumina in response to minute changes.\nMore accurate feeding of alumina in response to changing conditions is also expected to lower energy consumption, reducing emissions of CO2 created through power generation.\nEGA’s work to reduce PFC emissions is led by executive vice president Dr Ali Al Zarouni, who is in charge of the company’s aluminium smelters in Abu Dhabi and Dubai and EGA’s technology development.\nDr Al Zarouni said: “Reducing PFC emissions in the aluminium industry is a matter of fundamental environmental responsibility. Unfortunately no single factor provides the solution.

Before 4 p.m., police shut down Interstate 81 because flooding beneath the Butternut Street bridge made the road impassable.\nWater and traffic on I-81 forced ambulances from as far away as Jefferson County to use city streets instead of the interstate to reach Syracuse hospitals.\nThe amount of rain that fell reached 1.79 inches, a record for the date. With four days left, this April is already the second-soggiest on National Weather Service records.\nDamage was widespread, particularly in Syracuse, where Upstate University Hospital briefly closed its lobby when a pipe carrying rain water from the roof burst.\nReports of flooding were equally widespread, from the State Tower Building to a carpet store on North Salina Street to homes throughout Onondaga, Oswego and Cayuga counties. Firefighters struggled to keep up with calls. Asked how many reports of flooded basements had come in, Syracuse District Fire Chief Steven Evans said, “right now I’d say we’ve got hundreds.”\nFlooding in the basement apparently led to the collapse of a wall of a home at 309 Martin St. Al Sienke said he was cleaning out a drain minutes before the wall collapsed. “It took out the whole back wall, the washer and dryer,” he said.\nThe walkway along Onondaga Creek in Franklin Square was submerged, the creek’s turbid waters coursed through gaps in the iron fence that lines the walk. On the other bank of the creek, three mallards paddled serenely in high water.\nIn the midst of the storm, workers at the Atrium building downtown reported seeing storm-drain covers forced out of the ground by water pressure.\nPower outages were reported throughout the region, with hundreds of customers affected, according to National Grid.\nThe National Weather Service reported the storms may have dumped golf-ball sized hail and spawned damaging winds in excess of 60 mph.\nStaff writers Robert Baker, Douglass Dowty, John Mariani and Charles McChesney contributed to this report.\nCheck out more videos from The Post-Standard:\nFrom the scenes:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It may cause landslides or it could cause even large rivers to flood,” Yoshihisa Nakamoto, director of the forecast division at the weather agency, said during a televised briefing.\nHe added that surging tides may cause widespread flooding in low-lying areas, particularly around river mouths.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Along the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge yesterday, winds of up to 66 m.p.h. prompted officials to close the upper level from 1:30 P.M. to just after 5 P.M. and to ban trucks from the lower level. Trucks and buses were also banned from the Tappan Zee Bridge until the wind died down.\nFederal meteorologists recorded gusts of up to 60 m.p.h. in eastern Pennsylvania and northern New Jersey, as well as a gust of 54 m.p.h. in Rockland County.\nWind-whipped rain stung pedestrians in New York City as gale-force southerlies wove through its glass and steel canyons. City police officials reported no damage as of early yesterday afternoon, save for a handful of damaged or downed street signs and trees.\nThe New York City Fire Department reported that a building at 147 Felix Street in downtown Brooklyn partly collapsed yesterday afternoon, but it was unclear whether the wind or rain contributed to the collapse.\nConnecticut and New Jersey similarly rode out the first half of the storm without substantial damage, the state police departments said. About 27,000 customers of Northeast Utilities lost power Saturday, beginning about 3 P.M. when winds began to knock trees down onto power lines. Minor street flooding caused some road closures in the Grosvenor Dale section of Thompson, Conn., the police said.\nIn New Jersey, where almost an inch of rain fell on the state's already saturated soil, the National Weather Service said the storm produced only minor flooding. Forecasters had called for up to two inches of rain, which a meteorologist had said could force evacuations as rivers swelled and streets flooded. But the police in Bergen, Middlesex and Passaic counties, which are most prone to flooding, reported no evacuations or road closures.\nIn the western Mohawk River Valley in upstate New York, several homes lost roofs and gusts toppled several tractor trailers on the highway, state police officials said.\nThe wind was expected to moderate and the rain to end last night as the cold front passed and the wind direction shifted from south to west, said Michael Wooldridge, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service. About an inch of rain was expected in Central Park. By early this morning, the front was expected to push down temperatures to the teens and 20's and could change the rain to snow, meteorologists said.\nThe heaviest patch of rain yesterday first soaked the eastern slopes of the Appalachians in northern Virginia with up to two inches of new precipitation, then moved through the sodden Susquehanna River Valley and into Delaware County and the Catskills, where rainfall was expected to be similar, said Frederick J. Gadomski, a meteorologist at Pennsylvania State University.\nAs the storm peaked in Putnam County shortly after noon, flooding temporarily blocked a major north-south highway, Route 9, and also blocked roads near Cold Spring, the Putnam County Sheriff's Department said.\nThe 85,000 residents of the Dutchess County city of Poughkeepsie, who draw their drinking water from the storm-muddied Hudson, remained under a local health alert to boil water for two minutes before drinking, because of turbid water conditions.\nAround Delaware County, residents of Margaretville, Arkville and Fleischmanns fled from low ground near streams leading to New York City's Pepacton Reservoir. Low-lying areas in Schoharie and Ulster Counties also were evacuated in a few trouble spots. And road crews, who had been repairing hundreds of miles of asphalt undercut by last week's floods saw their work undone by renewed runoff yesterday, Mr. Delameter said.Continue reading the main story","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The US hurricane center NHC in Miami assumed wind speeds of up to 120 kilometers per hour on Tuesday (local time). Accordingly, the storm should reach the west coast of Florida on Wednesday night or in the early morning hours.\n“Elsa” had previously raged in the Caribbean, killing at least three people. In Florida, however, the US authorities initially assumed the situation would go smoothly. One of the main concerns was the collapse of a high-rise building in Surfside near Miami, where rescue workers continued to search for victims in the rubble.\n“Wind hinders the big cranes”\nFor fear of “Elsa”, the demolition work on the collapsed skyscraper in Surfside had continued all night. Among other things, experts use explosives. A week and a half after the building collapsed in the town of Surfside near Miami Beach, there was little hope of finding survivors in the rubble.\nThe number of deaths rose to 36, and another 109 people were still missing. The authorities were certain that 70 of the missing persons were in the skyscraper at the time of the accident.\nAccording to Surfside’s Mayor Charles Burkett, the weather was already hampering the search in the rubble. “The wind is hindering the big cranes that move very heavy debris,” he said. “That is a challenge that you are trying to avoid right now.”\nNot in the eye of the storm\n“Elsa” was recorded on Friday as the first Atlantic hurricane of this year’s season. On Saturday, the experts downgraded him to a tropical storm.\nNow again with the status of a hurricane, “Elsa” turned towards the west, according to the NHC, so Florida would avoid the eye of the storm. Originally it was feared that the storm would hit the southwest coast of the US state head-on.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Nadezhda Lazareva, researchers of the Institute of Marine Research, Klaipėda University, publicly presented the findings of the study Exploration of the Amount and Composition of Atmospheric Particulate Matter and Identification of its Origin in Klaipėda. For seven months, the researchers have been collecting and systematising data in accordance with a methodology not yet tested in Lithuania, but already used in Western European and Asian countries; it enables effective identification of the level of particulate air pollution, particle composition, and pollution sources as well as modelling the trends of solid particle dispersion in the air.\nBreakthrough in air pollution studies\nParticulate air pollution is a problem relevant not merely to Klaipėda. “The methodology tested and presented by KU researchers is a breakthrough in the solution of the problem of particulate air pollution, important for most contemporary cities. It is especially relevant to Klaipėda, because the city and the port have to live in close neighborhood and find ways to reconcile their specific interests. I welcome the initiative of the Marine Research Institute team to address the ‘hot’ issue and provide a scientific basis for any discussion on this topic. Perhaps the findings of the research will not be pleasant for everyone, but in order to successfully solve problems, we need to know the objective reality,” says KU Rector prof. dr. Artūras Razbadauskas.\nIn the initial phase of the study, special accumulators were installed in 10 locations of the city to collect airborne particulate matter. The matter was removed from the accumulators four times. Each time, its mass was measured and the composition was examined. Soil samples were taken. The research team – four researchers of the MRI KU Paulius Rapalis, Nadezhda Lazareva, Sergej Suzdalev, and Ričardas Taraškevičius – argue that this is an effective and objective way to find solutions to the problem of dust pollution.\n“So far, only individual air pollution measurements have taken place in Klaipėda. Our study covered a large area of the city, and the data obtained revealed where particulate pollution was lower, where it was higher, what the origin of the dust was, and whether it was transport emissions or the effects of manufacturing processes in certain places. With such an analysis, it is already possible to respond to the situation more quickly and improve it, e.g., to direct street washing machines to one or another neighborhood, to intensify green belt development, or to find measures to neutralise pollution caused by manufacturing processes,” comments dr. Rapalis.\nInnovation will help environmentalists to identify pollution sources more effectively\nThe Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of the Republic of Lithuania is pleased with the research conducted by Klaipėda University researchers and its findings. “We can only rejoice in the successful result of the cooperation between the two institutions, since by applying new research methods we have gained the opportunity to significantly reduce pollution not only in Klaipėda, but also in the whole country. With these research data, we can now improve the environmental assessment system, which will make it much easier to determine the impact of economic entities on the environment”, says Rimgaudas Špokas, Director of the EPA.\nFor Klaipėda University, this study is another step in the implementation of the EU-CONEXUS vision: to use the potential of science to solve the problems of economic and social development of modern cities as effectively as possible.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Considered the oldest-known meteor shower, the Lyrids will peak on 22 and 23 April, with stargazers able to spot between 10 to 20 meteors per hour.\nTypically the first good meteor shower of the year, the Lyrids are visible from most parts of the world, although the timing this year may favour Europe. According to the Slooh Community Observatory, which will host a live stream of the event on Wednesday, 22 April 2015, it is set to be a good year for the Lyrids because the moon will be a slender waxing crescent and will not obscure the view of the meteor shower.\nWhat are the Lyrids?\nThe April Lyrids have been observed for the past 2,600 years. They are the strongest annual shower of meteors from debris of a long-period comet, mainly because as far as other intermediate long-period comets go (between 200 and 10,000 years), this one has a relatively short orbital period of about 415 years.\nThe source of the shower is particles of dust shed by the long-period comet Comet C/1861 G1 Thatcher. As the comet sheds debris, the fragments of rock and dust strike the Earth's upper atmosphere at around 110,000 miles per hour, vaporising the debris and creating streaks of light. Sometimes, Earth may pass through a thick clump of comet debris, meaning more meteors will be visible.\nLyrid \"fireballs\" are created when brighter meteors cast shadows for a split second, leaving behind smoky debris. The radiant of the shower is located in the constellation Lyra, near the brightest star of the constellation, Alpha Lyrae, or Vega. The Lyrids can appear anywhere in the sky.\nWhy do the shooting stars leave behind a glowing trail?\nShooting stars are not actually stars but fast-moving fragments of rock and debris left behind by a comet, and as the Earth moves around the sun, some of these pieces are pulled toward Earth by gravity. Around a quarter of the meteors produced during the shower will leave behind an ionised gas trail that glows for just a few seconds.\nWhen a meteor enters Earth's atmosphere it is moving so fast that its atoms collide with air molecules and electrons are 'knocked' loose - creating free electrons and positively charged ions. As the shooting star passes, the negatively charged free electrons are attracted to the positively charged ions and combine with them. When this happens energy is released in the form of light, creating the glowing trail behind shooting stars.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

These programs, currently active in the District of Columbia, Montgomery County, Arlington County, Fairfax County and Prince George’s County include:\nAir Quality Action Days Policies\nToday’s meeting was the first of three special strategic planning sessions intended to foster information sharing and brainstorming among the region’s jurisdictions as they work together to improve air quality for local residents. Some of the innovative programs discussed are part of the metropolitan Washington region’s current regional air quality plan for the region, while others are being proposed for a new plan due to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency by December 2007.\n“I hope this will be a way to help jurisdictions implement some of these programs,” said Nancy Floreen, MWAQC Vice Chair and Montgomery County Council Member. “We’ll see what we can collectively develop now that we have items to take back to our respective jurisdictions.”\nLocal jurisdictions are voluntarily initiating policies and programs that aim to reduce the formation of pollutants such as soot and ozone that contaminate the air. A Fairfax County emissions reduction program, for instance, has successfully retrofitted nearly 600 diesel school and transit buses. The program is anticipated to decrease emissions by 25 percent, reduce fuel needs by 73,000 gallons each year and save $138,000 annually. In Montgomery and Arlington counties, tree planting is being proposed to increase the area’s tree canopy as a way to absorb ozone, particles, and other airborne pollutants. The District of Columbia, meanwhile, has begun enforcing a new policy that penalizes tour buses and trucks that let their engines idle for more than three minutes during summer months, when ground-level ozone most often forms. Ozone, the main ingredient in urban and regional smog, is created when air pollutants from a variety of sources react in sunlight.\nDana Kauffman, MWAQC Chair and Fairfax County Supervisor, said counties and cities in the Washington region deserve credit for adopting innovative programs to reduce air pollution. MWAQC is the agency responsible for developing a regional plan – known as the State Implementation Plan -- to meet national air quality standards by 2010.\nThe Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments is the association of 19 local governments working together for a better metropolitan region. #","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Sioux City, Iowa, got only trace snowfall, and Sioux Falls, S.D., recorded none at all.\nDespite the snow's effect on travelers and how suddenly it seemed to overtake the area, it did not set any records in the southwest Minnesota-northwest Iowa region.\n\"It's not completely unusual to get snow at this time of year,\" Schumacher said. \"Back in 1998, in Sioux Falls, we had a foot of snow right on Veterans Day, and of course back in 1991 was the Halloween storm.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

What is Global Warming? Global Warming is simply the increase of the atmosphere’s temperature and its effect on the environment, including all ecosystems. The effects of global warming are brought about due to industrialization and other human practices such as farming and construction.\nHuman activities impact the climate in different ways. Obvious aspects of the impact of Global Warming will be changes in both average and extreme temperatures. Global Warming will obviously enhance coastal erosion, lengthen the planting/ growing seasons and possibly change the range of some infectious diseases.\nIn West Africa, due to natural climatic conditions, Global Warming will result in more hot days and fewer wet days. However, current trends in climatic changes show a slight change. There have been more hot days and heavy storms. Areas at high latitudes that are already experiencing much rainfall will have more storms while tropical regions and dry places will likely receive scanty rains. The increase in rainfalls will translate into heavier storms, but not into an increase in the number of rainy days. This will lengthen the period of drought. Global Warming in West Africa will thus prolong drought/ dry seasons. In Ghana this was seen during the energy crisis which followed the lack of rains in the Upper White Volta.\nFrom the period of industrialization till now, there have been more gas emissions into the atmosphere than in any other era in global history. Due to industrialization climatic change cannot be avoided. As long as there is a continuous influx of production industries and an unquenchable quest for a massive infrastructural and industrial boom in West Africa, the globe will experience inevitable climate change. This will obviously have an impact on human lives, the ozone layer and the ecosystems.\nIndustrial emissions like methane will deplete the ozone layer, which is a covering, and temperatures will go up. Global Warming is very likely to invent heavy and more destructive storms, and to increase drought, burning and coastal damage from high sea levels. However, there are going to be some exceptions. Tropical areas are likely to receive less rain as the earth becomes warmer.\nGlobal climate change and its effects are seen all over the world and Africa is no exception. However, this article is limited to the West African sub-region (and especially focused on Ghana). In Ghana it is evident that climatic conditions have changed for the past eight years or so. Rainfall patterns have changed as the wet or rainy season has shifted and the intensity or depth of rain has increased. There are more storms and the dry season has become very intense. What has caused these climatic changes in a lowly-industrialized continent like Africa. The answer to this question lies with us. Lots of bush burning, the emission of fumes from cars and trucks and the destruction of forests have had their impact.\nThe most affected in these climatic changes will be farmers and fisherfolk. The changes in rainfall and dry season patterns will have a great effect on growing plants and animals. Storms and flooding will be inevitable. The weather is not the only thing global warming will impact. Rising levels of the sea will destroy seacoasts and cause increased coastal flooding. Thus, the sea will begin to “eat our land”. The problem is serious because in Ghana it is estimated that about 70% of the population are farmers and fisherfolk. Thus climate change will mean less production of food, including fish and meat. Feeding oneself and one’s family will be difficult.\nThis writer and others believe strongly that the current world food crisis has its genesis in global climate change. Countries like Burkina Faso, Mali and Niger, which are well noted for meat production, will suffer because the rearing of animals like cattle will lessen as water bodies dry up and vegetation dies. These animals in turn will have little to feed on and drink. Not only will meat decrease but fresh milk will also be scarce. The decrease in the production of staples will mean an increase in the price of the little that is available. No wonder we are faced with global food crises.\nWhen the production of food crops and export produce decreases, it is obvious that the poverty levels of the people in West Africa will rise. This is the time for various West African governments and, more importantly, for ECOWAS to make strict environmental policies and enforce already existing ones. Thus, they can save poor farmers and fisherfolk from unbeatable poverty, and the whole sub-region from diseases such as cancer, malaria, heat strokes and other infections caused by heat.\nThe inability of these high-powered bodies to come out and strictly supervise and implement environmental laws means that residents of poorer countries, who do not have the resources to fend off changes in the climate, will be the hardest hit. As temperatures in tropical areas rise, the rate at which some diseases like malaria attack people will change. Intensive rains will lead to more severe flooding and the rising of sea levels. The dry season will be hotter and bush fires will increase. The intensity of droughts could lead to an increase in malnutrition as animals and plants will die out of hunger and thirst.\nPlants will die out because of excessive water from flooding. Also, fresh water will become scarce during the dry season as the drought period will be lengthened. In Ghana where there is a shortage of good drainage systems, hot days will be more of a blessing than a problem: flooding will have a tendency to render most people in these unplanned areas homeless as they will be prone to losing most of their properties. Longer growing seasons could also increase food production in some temperate areas.\nGlobal Warming has put increased pressure on the ecosystems of West Africa. The plants and animals that co-existed in particular climates are beginning to migrate to find new ecosystems that can support them. Warmer temperatures have already shifted the growing season in Ghana. Both the dry and wet seasons come earlier than expected. As such, migrating animals begin their journeys earlier in search of food. Since the growing season has lengthened, it is obvious that plants will need more water to keep growing or they will die out. As the growing season progresses, there are increases in daily temperatures. These temperatures are sometimes beyond the tolerance of plants and animals. Some animals must migrate to survive this harsh climate change.\nTalking to some fisherfolk at the Jamestown beach, I asked why some fish species that had been sold in the market in years past were no more. Their answer was no different from what I have been discussing in this article. They confirmed that most of the species had migrated to other countries’ waters and to the deep sea because the water temperature around the Ghanaian coastline could not support their existence.\nI also spoke with some hunters who confirmed that some animal species they had once hunted as game had migrated to other parts of the country or died out due to the temperature changes and bush fires. Thus species that cannot migrate or adapt to climate change face extinction. According to climate experts, an estimated 25- 35% of plant and animal species risk extinction if atmospheric temperatures keep rising in the next few years.\nAnother critical issue that needs to be discussed is what the global warming experts call the “greenhouse effect”. The “greenhouse effect” has received critical scrutiny because of its association with global warming, but it is important to the sustenance of life on earth. Thanks to the “greenhouse effect”, the deflection of sunlight from the earth back into space is about 30%.\nThe rest of the sunlight, which reaches the surface of the earth, is reflected upwards as energy called infrared radiation. This infrared radiation is carried by air currents which are absorbed by “greenhouse gases” such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, ozone and methane. Even though the gases amount to only 1% of the planet’s atmosphere, they regularize the climate as they trap heat and hold it in something like a “warm air” blanket that surrounds the planet.\nWithout the “greenhouse effect” it is believed that the earth’s temperature will increase by 30 degrees. Thus, the West African ecosystem will be in jeopardy. In West Africa, human activities have changed and catalyzed the God-made “greenhouse effect” by creating more greenhouse gases in the atmosphere than we need. The result is what we are all experiencing.\nThe climate in West Africa has become very warm. Most vehicles in Ghana emit fumes into the atmosphere, raising the level of carbon dioxide. Research shows that about 75% of people in West Africa are farmers who use all kinds of methods in farming. Some of these farming and land usage practices increase the levels of nitrous oxide and other chemicals in the ecosystem. In addition, the activities of the small number of factories contribute to the enhancement of global warming in the sub-region.\nMention can also be made of deforestation. This occurs at high rates in West Africa. Our forests and trees protect us from the rays of the sun and use carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. But they are now being logged for timber or cut down to create space for farming. There is also the issue of population growth and its contribution to the increase in the use of fuel for heat, transportation and manufacturing. This, in turn, causes an increase in greenhouse gases. To sum it all up, the increment of greenhouse gases means more infrared radiation will be trapped and held in the atmosphere. This will cause the temperatures of the earth’s surface and the atmosphere to increase.\nIt is clear that global warming will continue to impact life on earth in several ways. How far it will go depends on you and I. Climatic change experts have shown that the activities of humans catalyze the emission of greenhouse gases and this increases global temperatures. It is not surprising that what scientists have predicted is coming to pass. God has given as all the rules but we have chosen to do what pleases us. In the beginning, as noted in the Bible (Genesis 1: 28), He said “man should have dominion”, but our dominion has turned us into destroyers of that over which we were supposed to be “watchmen”.\nAs a result of our disobedience, ecosystems in West Africa and elsewhere have been affected and surprising changes are taking place. Plants and animals are migrating or dying out. Tropical rain is taking on different dimensions and there are widespread and frequent droughts. It is evident that the effects of global warming on West Africa will be diabolical if lasting and timely interventions are not undertaken by ECOWAS and environment protection bodies in various West African countries.\nThe current global food crises will be very harsh on West Africans, droughts will increase and access to fresh water will be reduced. Famine and diseases will become widespread in West African states. Considering that some of the world’s poorest countries are found in West Africa, the repercussions of global warming on West African people will be very great.\nThe onus lies, not only on ECOWAS and nations in West Africa, but also on individuals like you and me, and on communities and various NGOs, CBOs and NPOs to educate people. This we can do by creating awareness and asking people to reduce their dependency on fossil fuels and increase their use of renewable energy. We could also ask them to live a daily lifestyle that will help in the sustenance of their environments.\nSource: click here","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

High temps and little rain occurred just as often together as low temps and lots of rain, but that is no longer the case. We're now seeing more and more warm years, so when the precipitation cycle turns dry, we're screwed from here on out.\nThe report is published in the March 2 issue of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. And looking at over 100 years of data, you see that \"there were six droughts in past 20 years (1995-2014), compared to 14 droughts in the previous 98 years (1896-1994.)\"\nThis unpleasant news arrives just as The State Water Project slightly boosted its 2015 allocations to two thirds of California's residents as well, as the Chronicle reports. They only gave water customers 5 percent of their usual allocation in 2014, and this year thanks to recent rains that will go up to 20 percent. Those customers include the Santa Clara Valley Water District and the Alameda County Water District.\nAnd in related, horrible news, fisheries experts say that California's drought, coupled with a possible El Nino forming as the Pacific Ocean warms this season, could cause major problems for the current generation of Sacramento River king salmon. The Chronicle reports that the 2015/16 season will be a defining one after several dicey years, and an ocean that is now 3 to 5 degrees warmer than usual for this time of year.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

We as scientists have to keep putting the problem in front of them.”\nFor Parrish, focusing on the moment is how to keep the concerns about flying into a Category 4 or 5 hurricane at bay.\n“It was a wild couple of days,” Parrish said about his flights into Hurricane Matthew. “We only do zero gravity once in a while, and it happened twice in Matthew.”\nIn Matthew’s post-storm assessment, National Hurricane Center senior storm specialist Stacy Stewart noted that its eye contracted to 6 miles from 34 while strengthening by an “extraordinary” 86 mph.\nRelated: 2017 hurricane forecast based on chances El Nino will reappear\nThat happens when the air rushing skyward in circling thunderstorms speeds up, stretching the cylinder of the rotating cyclone vertically so that the diameter of the center shrinks. It’s like ice skaters going into spins. Their twirls quicken as they bring outstretched arms closer to their bodies and over their heads.\nParrish said he is most wary of rapidly intensifying storms on such missions. When a cyclone is deepening quickly, there is no easy way in or out of the eye.\n“It’s hard every way,” he said. “We know it’s going to be kind of unpleasant.”\nThe smallest eye Parrish has been in was just three miles across. When it’s that small, there isn’t much time for data collection, he said.\n“When they start to shrink up like that, there are a lot of updrafts and downdrafts and there is no easy way in. It’s hard in every way,” Parrish said.\nTo read about what scares scientists the most with storms like Matthew see the full Palm Beach Post story here.\nIn 2016, Hurricane Hunter Mike Holmes’ recalled his flight into 2015’s Hurricane Patricia, which in 24 hours deepened from a Category 1 storm to 207 mph.\nHe recalled his keyboard clapping up and down, which knocked out programs on his screen. A laptop jostled free of its storage and hurtled the length of the cabin like a missile. Crew members braced against a ricochet that tested limitations — human and machine alike.\nThen, at 1:33 p.m. on Oct. 23, 2015, pilots penetrated the storm’s tightly wrapped core into an eye of blue. But it was 1 minute earlier that history was made.\nHurricane Patricia’s winds were measured at more than 200 mph. The Pacific Ocean hurricane was well beyond the magnitude of a Category 5 storm. It was the strongest, most intense, hurricane on record.\nIn just 24 hours, Patricia’s winds had ramped up from a modest Category 1 storm to 207 mph — a “remarkable” intensification no one had predicted, and a nightmare scenario for meteorologists entrusted with saving lives.\nTo read more about Holmes’ ride into a monster, see the full Palm Beach Post story here.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Affected regions include Portsmouth, Southampton, Bristol, Bath and Cardiff.\nThe lengthiest delays are expected to be between 10am and 12 noon, and drivers have been advised to wait until later in the day and travel in the evening.\nThe RAC predicted last week that due to Easter falling earlier this year, there could be more congestion on roads than usual. This is because the first bank holiday weekend of 2024 coincides with the two-week spring school holiday.\nSome routes in the South of England are set for the worst delays on Easter Monday while those taking an Easter trip via the A303 from Ilmister to Andover could be spending twice as long on roads as normal with transport analyst INRIX saying the route could now take 2.6 hours.\nMany rail links are not operating as usual on Easter Monday which could potentially drive more travellers on to the roads.\nAvanti West Coast is set to be “severely impacted” by engineering work running from Friday 29 Mar to Monday 1 Apr. Avanti advises customers to travel on either of the Easter Break, but replacement buses will be available during some of its routes.\nRAC spokesperson Alice Simpson advises travellers driving over Easter Monday to check their fuel, oil and coolant levels before making their journey, as well as their tyre pressure and warning lights.\nBob Pishue, a transportation analyst at the INRIX, advised drivers to adjust their departure so they are not travelling at peak hours. Stormy weather earlier in the week has already caused significant delays for people travelling to the UK.\nPeople travelling via Dover on Friday were forced to queue for up to an hour due to stormy weather, courtesy of Storm Nelson and tighter security registrations.\nAhead of the weekend, it was estimated that more than 14 million people are set to take to Britain’s roads over the four-day break, with drivers told their planned journeys could take twice as long as usual amid what has been dubbed by the RAC as “carmageddon”.\nTraffic queues stretched up to 20 miles were reported on the M4 and M5 interchange near Bristol on Friday – adding at least 45 minutes to journey times as many rushed to get away for Easter.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Delivering actual and proper weather forecasts to each team via the web-portal “onTrack” was the duty of the specially trained meteorologists and technicians throughout the season. The exact weather information is an important aspect in several decision-making processes for the teams.\nFrom Australia to Malaysia via Canada and back to Austria… UBIMET Meteorologist and Project Coordinator for Formula 1 Steffen Dietz was on the route for nearly eight months with his team to ensure the delivery of high quality weather forecasts on site and in real time.\nExact forecasts on the spotSupported remotely by several meteorologists located at UBIMETs headquarters in Vienna, who are analysing radar images, probability maps of forecasted rain thresholds and other data, the Team of UBIMET is aware of every change in weather conditions. “The high precision level of information, the forecasts and the observations made on-site, are available for every racing team at the same time”, explains Steffen Dietz.\nProper forecasts for controlling a chaotic process\nWeather is chaotic and can change as rapidly as a Formula 1 car is driving: “It’s important for us as drivers, as well as for the whole racing team, to know how the weather conditions will change,” says Daniel Ricciardo, driver for Infiniti Red Bull Racing: ”it influences our race preparation, from driver kit we may use, to car set-up and race strategy. The weather is always important at all races, whether it’s from very hot races, like Malaysia, to dry races, like Abu Dhabi - to those that are more unpredictable.”Information about track temperature, rain probability, humidity and much more are essential to answer questions regarding the equipment of the driver, the possible extent of overheating of the motor or the right tire choice.While all the racing teams hope on the perfect weather conditions, which would be dry, partly cloudy and as calm as possible, UBIMET delivers the most detailed forecasts: “Based on our knowledge and exact data of weather stations located worldwide we inform each team, in detail and on time, about eventual weather changes”, says Steffen Dietz.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Temperatures of over 10 degrees forecast for today will cause much of the remaining snow and ice to melt and run off today which will keep levels up for the short term.\nOnce a definite decline of levels begins, Parks Canada staff will need to begin releasing water from the reservoir lakes upstream of Smiths Falls to relieve high levels on the lakes. Every effort will be made to keep the release close to the rate of decline on the Long Reach between Burritts Rapids and Manotick to avoid increasing water levels again in the communities first hit on Thursday.\nWater levels on the Jock River rose through Friday causing some properties in and around Richmond to have access issues and their sump pumps running.

The warm temperatures will continue to take the frost out of the soil and melt the last stubborn snow and ice in sheltered areas. The rain is likely to slow the rate of recession of water levels for a brief time.\nAs with all of these messages, we want to emphasize the need for caution near the cold and, in some places, fast moving water.

The region, with 58 million people in the two bordering countries, has some of the most vulnerable communities in South Asia. Cyclones that form in every ocean basin across the world are named by the regional specialised meteorological centres (RSMCs) and Tropical Cyclone Warning Centres (TCWCs). Cyclone Amphan: \"Amphan\" was the last name on the current list before a new one starts.

Amphan made landfall near Bakkhali in West Bengal at 2:30 p.m. IST on 20 May,  buffeting the region with strong winds and heavy rains. And why are cyclones given names and who decides those? IMD released a new list of 169 cyclone names in April of this year including 13 suggestions from each of the 13 countries. Bad news is it is still gushing towards lands at a speed in excess of 175-185 kmph. With NDRF and other frontline workers waiting on the heel to step in and help as Amphan is expected to make a landfall Bengal today, May 20, authorities expect it to weaken into an 'extremely severe' category cyclonic storm.

Skies were partially clear Sunday morning, but the NWS said travel in the mountain areas would \"still be very `dicey' through the day.\"\nThe following highway closures were ongoing Sunday:\n-- State Route 2 in the Angeles National Forest was closed from two miles north of I-210 to Vincent Gulch Road;\n-- State Route 39 in the Angeles National Forest was closed at East Fork Road.\nSeveral thousand people remained without electricity Sunday due to weather-related outages.\nA Los Angeles Department of Water and Power worker was in intensive care after suffering an injury while working to restore power Saturday in the San Fernando Valley, the utility said Sunday.\n\"This accident and serious injury of our employee is a reminder that our line crews and other field personnel are truly unsung heroes who work in hazardous conditions risking their lives to keep the power flowing across our city,\" LADWP General Manager Martin Adams said.\nThe LADWP said 49,000 of its 1.5 million electric customers were still without power Sunday. Since the start of the storm Friday, crews had restored power to more than 98,000 customers.\nThe remaining outages were spread across LADWP's service area with some of the hardest hit communities being Glassell Park, Green Meadows, Hancock Park, Hollywood, Studio City, Chatsworth, Mission Hills, North Hollywood, Sun Valley, Tarzana, Van Nuys and Woodland Hills.\nThe time frame for crews to respond to an outage increased to 24-48 hours early Saturday, up from the previous 12-24 hours, when it became clear that continued wind and rain would result in additional outages even as crews continued to restore power.\nMeanwhile, Southern California Edison's outage map showed 21 outages affecting more than 2,200 customers in Los Angeles County as of 4 p.m. Sunday, and five outages in Orange County affecting 665 customers.\nFirefighters and paramedics performed the latest of several water rescues Sunday in a remote section of the Tujunga Wash in Sunland. Two people and a cat who were camping inside a vehicle in a remote section of the wash were rescued by helicopter after the area filled with storm water. The two people were being treated for hypothermia.\nLos Angeles County health officials warned people to avoid going into the ocean near discharging storm drains, creeks and rivers until at least Wednesday due to the storms. The water might contain bacteria, chemicals, debris, trash and other health hazards.\nAnother storm system was expected to bring periods of rain and mountain snow to the Southland late Sunday through Wednesday. Gusty winds are possible for periods of time, especially Monday, before a warming and drying trend takes shape later in the week.\nScattered showers, isolated thunderstorms and some hail were expected Sunday afternoon and evening and early Monday, with the potential for minor urban flooding. For the first wave of the storm, NWS models suggested to 0.50 to 1 inch of rain across coastal and valley areas with 1 to 2 inches in the mountains.\nThe following two waves are predicted to be much lighter, forecasters said, with sunny skies returning on Thursday.\nTemperatures continue to be well below normal. Daytime highs on Sunday were 54 degrees in downtown Los Angeles, 52 in North Hollywood, 51 in Pasadena and 49 in Valencia. Those numbers were expected to be roughly the same over the next few days.\nLows are mostly in the 30s, dropping to the 20s in some mountain areas and in the 40s in Orange County.\nSnow levels Sunday morning were hovering in the 1,500-2,000 foot range, and were expected to increase slightly to the 2,000-3,000 foot range in the afternoon.\nA winter weather advisory was in effect until 10 p.m. Wednesday in the mountains.\nWinds were relatively light Sunday, but gusts were expected to reach 40 mph in the mountains and 45 mph in the Antelope Valley.\nKnott's Berry Farm and Six Flags Magic Mountain reopened Sunday after both parks were closed Friday and Saturday.\nThis weekend was the first time downtown Los Angeles received at least 2 inches of rain on consecutive calendar days since Feb. 28 and March 1 of 1978, according to the NWS.\nThe weather service added that Friday was the wettest February day at Burbank Airport since records began there in 1939, beating the previous record of 4.50 inches set on Feb. 8, 1993.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Protected breaks were shoulder high or so and cleaner but still warbled. At Santa Cruz windswell/Gulf swell combo was waist to chest high and clean but soft. In Southern California up north local windswell was producing waves in the waist high range and clean early. In North Orange Co surf was waist to chest high on the sets and soft coming from the northwest and textured from northwest wind. In South Orange Co surf was waist high or so and textured from north wind. In San Diego northwest windswell was producing surf at chest to shoulder high and textured from northwest wind. Hawaii's North Shore was near flat and clean. The South Shore had waist high sets and was clean. The East Shore was getting local east windswell at shoulder to head high and chopped from east trades.\nSee QuikCASTs for the 5 day surf overview or read below for the detailed view.\nOn Saturday (5/13) local windswell and windswell from a low pressure system previously in the Gulf of Alaska was hitting California and unremarkable. No swell from the Southern Hemi was in the water. A weak gale was developing in the far Southeast Pacific today with seas forecast building to 33 ft before moving out of the California swell window. Little to result from it. But long term the models suggest a storm building south of New Zealand on Fri (5/19) with up to 50 ft seas aimed north. Something to monitor. Summer is here.\nSHORT- TERM FORECAST\nCurrent marine weather and wave analysis plus forecast conditions for the next 72 hours\nOn Saturday (5/13) windswell from a gale previously in the Gulf was hitting California and mixing with local windswell generated by high pressure at 1038 mbs filling the Gulf of Alaska and producing the standard summer time pressure gradient along the coast.\nAlso a tiny gale developed over the Northern Dateline region on Thurs PM (5/11) producing 40 kt west winds for 12 hours generating 23 ft seas at 50N 177W. This system was gone 12 hours later. No swell of interest is to result for either Hawaii or California.\nOver the next 72 hours high pressure is to remain in control along the CA coast with northwest winds at 20 kts or greater into Tues AM (5/16) generating raw local northerly windswell. The high was also generating enhanced trades (east wind) from California to and extending over Hawaii at 20 kts and forecast to hold into late Monday (5/15) then fading Tuesday (see QuikCASTs for details).\nAlso low pressure is to develop off the Kuril Islands Sat-Sun (5/14) with 30-35 kt northwest winds producing up to 18 ft seas at 40N 167E at 06z Sun (5/14) somewhat targeting Hawaii. It is to fade from there. This system is to be a long ways away with low odds of any swell resulting.\nNorth Pacific Animations: Jetstream - Surface Pressure/Wind - Sea Height - Surf Height\nNo tropical systems of interest are being monitored.\nCalifornia Nearshore Forecast\nOn Saturday (5/13) high pressure was centered in the Gulf of Alaska at 1036 mbs with north winds in control of the California coast except for Southern CA. Winds were near 30 kts just off Pt Conception early but only 10-15 kts from San Francisco northward to Cape Mendocino but building there in the afternoon. Sunday northwest winds build to 20 kts for all of North and Central CA and up to 25 kts for Pt Conception pushing into Southern CA in the afternoon. The gradient is to hold on Mon (5/15) with northwest winds 20-25 kts for all of North and Central CA pushing into Southern CA in the afternoon. North winds moderating some on Tues (5/16) at 10-15 kts for all of North and Central CA and 20 kts for Pt Conception. Wednesday northwest winds build to 20-25 kts for all of North and Central CA and building into Southern CA late AM. More of the same on Thurs (5/18) but with light winds for Southern CA. The gradient lifts north and fades on Fri (5/19) with north winds 20 kts focused only on North CA with 10 kt north winds from San Francisco southward. The gradient fades more on Saturday (5/20) with north winds 15-20 kts for Cape Mendocino and 10 kts or less south of there.\nOn Saturday AM (5/13) the jetstream was generally split over the entire southern hemi with the northern branch running east on the 30S latitude line and the southern branch on the 60S line. A ridge in the northern branch was in play over the Southeast Pacific causing the northern branch to merge with the southern branch starting at 140W and most pronounced just off Southern Chile. There was something that almost looked like a trough in the southern branch near 130W offering weak support for gale development and then better support just off Chile. Over the next 72 hours the split zonal flow is to continue with the northern branch still falling south over the Eastern South Pacific and something that sort of looks like a trough persisting from 120W into Chile through Tues (5/16) offering some support for gale development mainly focused on Chile. Beyond 72 hours more of the same is forecast (split zonal flow) over the greater South Pacific but with a defined steep trough developing in the far Southeast Pacific just off Chile being fed by 140 kt winds offering decent support for gale development targeting Peru and Chile on Tues (5/16) then moving onshore there. Longterm the models continue to suggest a defined trough building under New Zealand on Thurs (5/18) being fed by 140 kt winds and holding form into Sat (5/20) possibly supporting gale development in lower levels of the atmosphere.\nOn Saturday AM (5/13) no southern hemi swell was in the water.\nOver the next 72 hours a gale started to develop in the deep Southeast Pacific on Fri PM (5/12) with 40 kt west winds and seas building. On Sat AM (5/13) winds built to 45 kts from the south with seas building to 32 ft at 57S 130W. In the evening winds are to hold at 45 kts but coming from the southwest aimed more at Chile with seas 33 ft at 63S 120W and 30 ft seas reaching north to 53S 120W and barely in the California swell window. By Sun AM (5/14) fetch is to be fading from 40 kts moving east and out of the CA swell window targeting only Chile with seas 33 ft 63W 115W. Possible small south angled swell for Southern CA. Something to monitor.\nSouth Pacific Animations: Jetstream - Surface Pressure/Wind - Sea Height - Surf Height\nMarine weather and forecast conditions 3-10 days into the future\nBeyond 72 hours the models suggest some form of low pressure system developing in the Gulf of Alaska on Sat (5/20) producing 30-35 kts west winds and seas to 19 ft at 42N 155W.\nAfter that the North Pacific is to go to sleep.\nBeyond 72 hours there's suggestion of a broad gale developing Wed PM (5/17) south of New Zealand with winds 40 kts from the south-southwest and seas building from 32 ft at 51S 159E. Fetch is to build in coverage Thurs AM (5/18) at 35-40 kts from the southwest over a large area with 30 ft seas building at 49S 165E aimed well to the north but mostly shadowed by New Zealand. Significant development is forecast in the evening with a broad fetch of 45-50 kt south winds taking shape well south of New Zealand with seas building from 28 ft down at 60S 168E with 33 ft seas at 51S 167E. By Friday AM (5/19) a large area of 50-60 kt south winds are forecast well south of New Zealand with 43 ft seas building at 59S 173E targeting New Zealand, Hawaii and California (195 degs HI, 210 degs NCal and barely unshadowed by Tahiti, 210 degs SCal and shadowed). The fetch is to lift north in the evening fading to 50 kts with 50 ft seas at 53S 178E (195 degs HI, 213 degs Ncal and unshadowed, 215 degs SCal and shadowed). Fetch fading Sat Am (5/20) from 40 kts from the south with 40 ft seas fading at 49S 173W (192 degs HI, 211 degs NCal and barely unshadowed, 210 degs SCal and shadowed). Something to monitor.\nMore details to follow...\nWeak Oceanic Kelvin Wave Trying to Push East\nThe Madden Julian Oscillation is a periodic weather cycle that tracks east along the equator circumnavigating the globe. It is characterized in it's Inactive Phase by enhanced trade winds and dry weather over the part of the equator it is in control of, and in it's Active Phase by slackening if not an outright reversing trade winds while enhancing precipitation. The oscillation occurs in roughly 20-30 day cycles (Inactive for 20-30 days, then Active for 20-30 days) over any single location on the planet, though most noticeable in the Pacific. During the Active Phase in the Pacific the MJO tends to support the formation of stronger and longer lasting gales resulting in enhanced potential for the formation of swell producing storms. Prolonged and consecutive Active MJO Phases in the Pacific help support the formation of El Nino. During the Inactive Phase the jet stream tends to split resulting in high pressure and less potential for swell producing storm development. Wind anomalies in the Kelvin Wave Generation Area (KWGA) are key for understanding what Phase the MJO is in over the Pacific. The KWGA is located on the equator from 135E-170W and 5 degs north and south (or on the equator from New Guinea east to the dateline). West wind anomalies in the KWGA suggest the Active Phase of the MJO in the Pacific, and east anomalies suggests the Inactive Phase. In turn the Active Phase strengthens and the Inactive Phase weakens the jetstream, which in turn enhances or dampens storm production respectively in the Pacific.The paragraphs below analyze the state of the MJO in the Pacific and provide forecasts for MJO activity (which directly relate to the potential for swell production).\nOverview: La Nina started developing in early 2016, but westward displaced and generally weak. And by March 2017, it was gone with suspicious warming developing along South America and over the Galapagos to a point south of Hawaii. By May the atmosphere returned to a neutral configuration.\nKWGA/Equatorial Surface Wind Analysis & Short-term Forecast:\nAnalysis (TAO Buoys): As of Friday (5/12) east winds were over the entire equatorial Pacific and marginally weaker in the south Kelvin Wave Generation Area. Anomalies were neutral everywhere. La Nina appears to be gone in the atmosphere.\n1 Week Forecast (GFS Model): East anomalies were building over the core of the KWGA. The forecast suggests strong east anomalies building over the entire KWGA and holding through 5/18, then backing off some and tracking east but still in control of the Central KWGA. This suggests the Inactive Phase of the MJO was moving over the KWGA.\nKelvin Wave Generation Area wind monitoring model: West and East\nLonger Range MJO/WWB Projections:\nOLR Models: As of 5/12 a building Inactive/Dry MJO pattern was moving over the KWGA. The statistic model projects the Inactive Phase tracking east to the dateline over the next week then fading while the Active Phase builds in the Indian Ocean moving to the Maritime Continent 2 weeks out. The dynamic model depicts the same thing. All this suggest that the previous pattern of the Inactive Phase of the MJO constructively integrating with the remains of La Nina appears to be gone and a more balanced/normal ENSO Pattern is taking hold.\nPhase Diagrams 2 week forecast (ECMF and GEFS): (5/13) The ECMF model indicates the Active Phase of the MJO was modest over Northeast Africa and is forecast to track east quickly to the Indian Ocean 10 days out and then to the Maritime Continent 2 weeks out. The GEFS depicts the same thing. These models runs about a week ahead of what occurs down at the surface.\n40 day Upper Level Model: (5/13) This model depicts a modest Inactive Pattern over the dateline. It is to track east to Central America through 5/26. A very weak Active pattern to follow in the West Pacific 5/24 tracking east to the East Pacific through 6/17. A very weak Inactive Phase is to follow in the West Pacific 6/22. This model runs about 2 weeks ahead of what happens at the surface.\nCFS Model - 3 month (850 mb wind): (5/13) This model depicts the Inactive Phase of the MJO was over the Central KWGA with modest east anomalies in play in the KWGA. Beyond the Inactive Phase is to peak on 5/20 then fade but still holding through 6/7 with weak westerly anomalies in the Central KWGA by 5/21 but fading by 5/27 with neutral anomalies in control. After that the Active Phase is to move into the KWGA on 6/15 with light west anomalies building, getting solid 7/1 and holding decently through 8/9 (the end of the run). This is likely overstated a the model has been teasing of west anomalies for months and yet they never develop. The low pass filter indicates La Nina is to hold on in the KWGA till 6/2 (previously 5/6-5/8). There's no signs of El Nino developing. It will take 5 years or more for the Pacific to recharge from the 2014-16 El Nino.\nCFSv2 3 month forecast for 850 mb winds, MJO, Rossby etc\nSubsurface Waters Temps\nTAO Array: (5/13) Actual temperatures remain stratified with warm water in the West Pacific at 30 degs C steady at 159E. The 28 deg isotherm line continues is steady at 149W. The 26 deg isotherm continued easing to the east reaching to the Galapagos with the 24 degs isotherm over a modest pool down 25 meters (75 meters at 140W) and holding. Warm anomalies at +2 degs are in the East Pacific and +2 degs anomalies in the West Pacific down at 125m. More interesting is a thin stream of +1 degs anomalies now stretch from the west to the east indicative of some form of weak Kelvin Wave. The hi-res GODAS animation posted 5/8 depicts that warm water is fading in the East Pac at +0-1 degs in a few small pockets easing east over a shallow pool to about 145W. Cool water at -1-2 degs is at depth between 110W-150W but is noticeably loosing coverage. A warm pocket at +4 degs is at 180W and trying to move east. La Nina has lost control of the ocean at depth with something that almost resembles a warm pattern taking shape. The concern is there is not much warm water in the far West Pacific to feed any sort of a progressive Kelvin Wave pattern.\nSea Level Anomalies: (5/8) +0-5 cm anomalies are along the coast of Peru and Ecuador but are fading. In the west +5 cm anomalies are over the entire KWGA and pushing east now reaching to 130W, suggestive of a weak Kelvin Wave tracking east. La Nina is gone in the East Pacific with a neutral to weak warm trend trying to hold on.\nSurface Water Temps: The more warm water in the equatorial East Pacific means more storm production in the North Pacific during winter months (roughly speaking). Cold water in that area has a dampening effect. Regardless of what the atmospheric models and surface winds suggest, actual water temperatures are a ground-truth indicator of what is occurring in the ocean. All data is from blended infrared and microwave sensors.\nHi-res Nino1.2 & 3.4: (5/12) The latest images (1.2 3.4) indicate a generalized warm pattern is building along the coasts of Northern Chile and Peru north to Ecuador then extending west over the Galapagos and out to sea out to 160W. Warming to +2 degs is in multiple pockets in this region. Upwelling along the immediate coasts of Peru and North Chile is all but gone. Looking at the large picture, warming in the southern hemi extends east thousands of miles off the coast of South America as far south as 20S or more. But it is not well defined. La Nina is gone and it looks like an El Nino like pattern is returning, though that seems hard to believe given the limited volume of subsurface warm water in the West equatorial Pacific.\nHi-res 7 day Trend (5/12): A warming trend is developing along immediate Chile and Peru. Marked warming extends off Ecuador to the Galapagos and then out to 100W in a thin stream. A weak warming trend is present in the Northern Hemi modesty from Oregon out to Hawaii reaching west to the Philippines. Overall nothing remarkable is indicated.\nHi-res Overview: (5/10) There is no sign of La Nina anywhere on the equator. A solid warm regime holds from Ecuador west to 140W and less energetic out to the dateline. It looks like El Nino is trying to develop and making headway into the Nino3.4 region. Overall waters of all oceans of the planet are warmer than normal. Suspect climatology needs to be updated to reflect this new reality, or the recent Super El Nino has significantly redistributed heat across the oceans.\nNino1.2 Daily CDAS Index Temps: (5/13) Today's temps are rising steadily at +0.579, down from the peak of +3.0 degs on 3/18.\nNino 3.4 Daily CDAS Index Temps: Today (5/11) temps holding, hovering at +0.482 degs.\nCFSV2 Forecast for Nino3.4 SST Anomalies\nSST Anomaly Projections\nCFSv2 Uncorrected Data (5/13) The forecast has temps slowly falling from +0.5 degs today down to +0.35 degs in July holding into Aug, then falling to +0.25 degs in Oct dropping to +0.1 degs in Jan 2018. This suggests a weakly cooler but still normal pattern developing for the Winter of 2017-2018. CFS data suggests a Modoki style warming pattern over the dateline this Fall and Winter. La Nina is over and a return to normal temps appears to have occurred in the ocean. There is no source for greater warming with the warm pool in the far West Pacific pretty weak. Much recharging and heat buildup is required for a real El Nino to develop. We're at least 5 years out from that.\nIRI Consensus Plume: The mid-April Plume updated (4/19) depicts temps are warming and are now at +0.4 degs. A slow increase in temps is forecast thereafter to +0.8 degs in July and up to +0.9 degs through the Fall into Winter. This is +0.3 degs warmer than the Feb forecast and +0.6 degs warmer than the January forecast and +0.1 degs since the March forecast suggesting La Nina is over and a warmer regime is setting up. See chart here - link.\nAtmospheric Decoupling (Indicating the presence of El Nino in the atmosphere driven by the ocean):\nSouthern Oscillation Index (5/13): The daily index was rising at 6.68. It was negative for the previous 14 days. The 30 day average was rising at -11.28. The 90 day average was falling at -4.73 or just south of neutral. This suggests a return to at least a neutral ENSO conditions has taken hold.\nESPI (like SOI but based on satellite confirmed precipitation. Positive is good, negative bad): (5/13) Today's value was -0.21 or effectively neutral. A peak low was reached on 11/2 at -1.94, the deepest of the recent La Nina event. This measures atmospheric response, not oceanic.\nPacific Decadal Oscillation: The PDO continues positive, though much weaker lately (as expected with La Nina setting in).\nPer NOAAs index recent values (Jan-Dec): Jan 2017 = +0.12, Feb = +0.04, March = +0.08. This continues to look like the warm phase of the PDO. No consistently negative readings have occurred since Feb 2014\nThe Washington EDU index (Jan-Dec): Jan 2017 = +0.77, Feb = +0.70, Mar = +0.74. No negative readings have occurred since Dec 2013\nThe PDO turned from a 16 year negative run (Jan 98-Feb 2014) in early 2014 and has been positive ever since (other than a few months of negative readings in Fall 2016, the result of a turn towards La Nina). Looking at the long term record, it is premature to conclude that we have in-fact turned from the negative phase (La Nina 'like') to the positive phase (El Nino 'like'), but the data strongly suggests that could be a possibility. By the time it is confirmed (4-5 years out), we will be well into it.\nSee imagery in the ENSO Powertool\nExternal Reference Material: El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO), Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), Southern Oscillation Index (SOI), Kelvin Wave\nAdd a STORMSURF Buoy Forecast to your Google Homepage.

That has since weakened further. The tornado warnings are over and severe storm winds are the threat for Nassau and Camden counties are through 4 am. There may be some trees 🌳 downed by high winds we might see, once the sun comes up.\nUpdate as of 3:30 a.m. All warnings have ended, looking back at the details:\nExact Track 4D did see the tight possible rotation of a tornado at 2:14 am, the warning officially came out at 2:27 am. Yes, Exact Track 4D is that good. But it also indicated that the possible tornado was extremely weak, never touched down and was brief.\nExact Track 4D indicated it had weakened to a rotating thunderstorm (meso storm) by 2:39 am. Only a window of 15 minutes to do damage.\nThe good news is that Exact Track 4D also indicated no debris, so there was no touchdown.\nBy 3:21 am the storm was off Cumberland Island and moving over the Atlantic. dissipated","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Scientists found that flakes of water ice fall from clouds high in the planet’s atmosphere, sometimes failing to reach the ground, but sometimes leaving a frosty covering.\n(A frost avalanche seen by the HiRISE camera aboard NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter in 2015)\nThe simulations appear to confirm earlier physical observations. Early in 2000 space scientists reported on the first signs of “martian snowfall and avalanches” after studying images from the Mars Orbiter’s cameras. The spacecraft’s images showed what appeared to be avalanches on crater lips – leading space snowfall expects to speculate that Martians may risk skiing and boarding off piste on a regular basis. Other instances included in 2012 NASA’s Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter which appear to see a cloud of carbon dioxide snowflakes over the southern pole. It’s now believed this snowfall may accumulate to several metres each year.\n“Ten years ago, the water-ice clouds were thought to have little impact on Mars climate,” Wilson says. “Now, we realize they have a big impact … and so things become richer and more complex and interesting than we suspected,” says John Wilson of NASA’s Ames Research Center.\nMars is home to the highest mountain so far discovered in the solar system, Olympus Mons (pictured below), which is about 25,000m high, around two-and-a-half times higher than Mt Everest, and has a footprint so big it would cover France if it was on earth. It’s believed to be snow capped at times but how far you can ski down remains an unknown.\nSince the turn of the century NASA and other space exploration organisations have gone from debating whether water existed outside the earth’s atmosphere to determining that many of the moons orbiting planets in the solar system are made up mainly of water ice.\nIt has also been theorised and in some cases observed by spacecraft that snow exists in various forms and various chemical compounds on at last 20 moons and planets outside earth within our solar system.\nA recently published book, Snow In Space, details these.\n(Images above credit NASA/JPL)","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

These PM2.5 micro-particles are classed as a Group 1 carcinogen by the World Health Organisation (WHO) and, as well as damaging the lungs, are a cause of heart disease and other life-threatening conditions.\nThe official advice is that no one should undertake any physical activity at levels that high.\nWhen I saw the news I turned on the small pollution detector I had bought over the weekend.\nThe LCD screen lit up and within a couple of seconds it produced a comparable figure.\nThe reading inside my Delhi home was 378. Yes, INSIDE my home.\nI checked online and the air quality monitor at the US embassy here in Delhi - not far from my home - read the same.\nAnd that isn't even the worst figure in Delhi. The heavy traffic, filthy local industries and coal-fired power stations near the Anand Vihar area in the east of the city make it Delhi's pollution hotspot.\nWhen I looked the air quality reading for these most minute of particles was up above 500.\nLet's put these statistics in a bit of context.\nThe official safe limit for PM2.5 particles - set by the WHO and the European Union - is 25 micrograms per cubic metre.\nThe US is far stricter. The limit there is 12 micrograms per cubic metre.\nThat means the air in my Delhi home is 30 times the US limit and more than 15 times the WHO safe limit.\nBy comparison, London's PM2.5 average on 6 December was 8 micrograms per cubic metre, according to the Environmental Research Group at King's College.\nIt says the highest reading it has ever recorded in London was 112, on bonfire night back in 2006.\nNow I'm not saying that Beijing has made a mistake by declaring a state of emergency - with PM2.5 pollution more than 10 times the WHO safe limit, the authorities' concern is entirely justified.\nNo, what amazes me is that Delhi - the most polluted city on earth, according to the WHO - hasn't taken similar measures.\nMy excellent colleague Soutik Biswas dissects Delhi's terrible record of cleaning up its poisonous air here. Authorities have announced a few measures to tackle pollution, but many believe it is a case of too little.\nThe Delhi Pollution Control Board disagrees.\n\"We are doing all we can to bring down the levels of pollution which are very high - though not exceptional as similar levels have been seen in the past,\" board chairperson Ashwani Kumar told the BBC.\nMr Kumar added that \"no direct comparisons should be made\" between Beijing and Delhi's pollution levels.\n\"The pollution in China is different in character from that of Delhi.

The holiday sing-along is still slated to go on.\nThose looking to ring in the New Year with fireworks in Reading will be disappointed, thwarted by Old Man Winter.\nThe extreme cold that has moved into the region forced the cancellation of the fireworks display at the Pagoda, Cindy L. Kauffman, manager of the Pagoda, said.\nKauffman said discussions Friday between city Fire Marshal Jeremy Searfoss and officials from International Fireworks of Douglassville, the company in charge of setting off the display, concluded the freezing temperatures and gusty winds forecast for Sunday night into Monday made it too dangerous for workers.\n“It was a decision that had to be made far enough ahead of time so that everybody had time to reschedule and adjust things,” Kauffman said. “And it doesn't look like anybody's saying that we're ready for 70s balmy weather.”\nThe holiday singalong with the Pagoda Pickers from 10 p.m. until midnight is still on, Kauffman said. But scheduling conflicts made it impossible to reschedule the fireworks display until another night.\nEarlier Friday, officials announced that Pottstown's Polar Bear Swim and Bonfire on New Year's Day had been canceled because of the cold forecast. Officials in Philadelphia also had discussed postponing the annual Mummers Parade because of the deep freeze.\nAs of Friday night, the parade was still set to step off at 9 a.m. New Year's Day, according to www.visitphilly.com.\nAccuWeather senior meteorologist Jack Boston said Berks County hasn't seen such a constant stretch of cold like what arrived earlier this week for more than a decade, pointing to the latter part of January 2004 as the last time temperatures remained below freezing for an extended stretch.\nTemperatures should be hovering around a normal high of 38 degrees for this time of year, Boston said, but the mercury won't approach normal for more than a week, pointing to Jan. 8 when temperatures should moderate.\nBoston said the polar vortex locked in over the eastern half of North America has been created with a cross-polar jet stream pulling cold air from Siberia and a ridge of warm high pressure situated over the West Coast. He said the extensive snowpack extending from the Ohio Valley into Canada, including record lake-effect snow in Erie, are also helping to cool down the air mass.\n“This cold is getting just a little bit persistent on us,” Boston said. “It's definitely something that hasn't happened for awhile. We knew this was going to happen back in early December, but even we are very impressed with how extensive this has been.”\nA high of 28 and a low of 13 degrees is forecast for today, Boston said, with a clipper system bringing up to an inch of snow into the morning. Boston said snow will accumulate immediately because of the freezing temperatures, creating slick conditions on roadways.\nWhile the freezing cold is proving to be unrelenting, Boston said the possibility of record lows are not likely. Boston said the best chance for a record comes on New Year's Eve, with a forecast low of 4 degrees. The record came nearly a century ago, with a low of 1 degree set in 1918.\nWind chills will make the cold feel even worse on New Year's Day, Boston said, hanging around the single digits during the day and dipping to between minus 5 and minus 10 overnight.\n“New Year's Eve is just going to be brutal,” Boston said. “I wouldn't want to be outside.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It can do nothing but create unnecessary alarm, when the country is already in a state of hysteria.\nOn the surface, AccuWeather’s press release would appear to be an attempt to glean publicity at Haiti’s expense.\nThis is January and the next hurricane season is six months away. The heart of the season, when major hurricanes are mostly likely to form, is eight to nine months away.\nThere is no reason, this early in the game, to say Haiti is due for a major hurricane this year – unless you’re trying to stir it up and see your company name in print.\nI called AccuWeather’s headquarters in State College, Pa., to get a comment.\nBarry Myers, the company’s chief executive officer, said he hadn’t seen the release. But he said that providing that information wasn’t intended to be insensitive.\nHe said it should aid relief efforts.\n“Anyone who’s working in the relief effort would certainly want to be aware of bad weather,” he said. “At that latitude, tropical waves could occur at almost any time of year.”\nBastardi said it wasn’t his idea to put out the press release. Rather, he said he was asked by AccuWeather’s staff about Haiti’s chances of seeing a major hurricane – and he complied by providing his take.\nBut he concurred with Myers. He said the threat of a major hurricane – or a rain-laden tropical storm – should spark rescuers to work faster.\n“The facts are the facts,” Bastardi said. “People should try to accelerate this recovery.”\nThere’s no question that Haiti could be hit by a major storm this year.\nThe odds of the Caribbean getting struck by a major hurricane are pretty high each year, between 40 and 50 percent, according to experts William Gray and Phil Klotzbach of Colorado State University.\nBut if AccuWeather.com was truly sensitive to Haiti’s plight, it would have waited until May or June to say that.\nFor full press release:\nACCUWEATHER.COM NEWS FORECAST\nFOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE\nHaiti 'Overdue' for Major Hurricane\nState College, PA - January 15, 2010 - It is not common for a major hurricane to hit Haiti, but the Caribbean nation is overdue, AccuWeather.com Chief Meteorologist and Expert Long Range Forecaster Joe Bastardi said.\nThe most intense tropical storms to impact Haiti were Flora, Cleo and Inez, which all hit within a five year period during the 1960s.\n\"One has to worry that with it being over 40 years since the last direct hit from a major hurricane that the natural odds [of it happening again soon] would be a concern,\" Bastardi said.\nMajor devastation from a direct hit is not as common in Haiti because of its location, as storms usually hit farther east.\nHaiti also has a mountainous topography, which helps to weaken any tropical storm that passes over it. However, widespread deforestation has made it easier for erosion and flooding to occur.\nBastardi said what is more common in Haiti is for a slow-moving, developing system to stall and bring excessive rainfall, and this rainfall is as big of a concern to Haiti as the threat of a major hurricane.\n\"Past storms Hanna, Jeanne and Ike were not direct hits on the Haitian coast, yet excessive rain caused tremendous damage,\" he said.\nBastardi also adds that for the upcoming hurricane season, at least 1-2 weak systems will bring enhanced rainfall to Haiti, which could hamper any continued earthquake recovery efforts.\nPOSTED IN: Commentary (176)\n> Please comment","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

That's an indication that there's some punch left in the storm, and that punch could help it strengthen, according to the Central Pacific Hurricane Center (CPHC).\nIn the August 5 discussion about Genevieve, the CPHC noted \"Genevieve has continued to present a bursting pattern during the overnight hours...with the low level circulation center estimated to be under the southeastern portion of an area of very cold cloud tops.\"\nAt 11 a.m. EDT (1500 UTC) today, Tuesday, August 5, Genevieve's maximum sustained winds were near 35 mph (55 kph). The NOAA Central Pacific Hurricane Center notes that gradual strengthening is forecast today through Wednesday, and Genevieve may become a tropical storm later today.\nThe center of tropical depression Genevieve was located near latitude 11.1 north, longitude 171.1 west. That's about 1,120 miles (1,805 km) southwest of Honolulu, Hawaii and 400 miles (645 km) south-southwest of Johnston Island.\nThe depression is moving toward the west-northwest near 14 mph (22 kph) and this motion is expected to continue today through Wednesday. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1005 millibars.\nNOAA's CPHC calls for slow intensification over the next couple of days as the storm continues to track in a westerly direction.

(KKCO) - A white Christmas in the Grand Valley is a rare occurrence, it's only happened a handful of times in recorded history.\nBut many residents have different opinions on the \"meaning\" of a white Christmas. By the first day of winter Monday, the Grand Valley had already seen it's fair share of snow, 9.2 inches to be exact. But does that snow make for a white Christmas?\nSome Grand Valley residents say it's not a white Christmas if the snow's already been around. They say a white Christmas means snow falling on Christmas Day.\nBut the Grand Valley averages only 4.8 inches of snow during the month of December so having snow on the \"ground\" for Christmas Day is rare.\nThere have been just \"20 days where we've actually had an inch of snow on the ground on Christmas morning,\" says Chris Cuoco of the National Weather Service.\nIt's even more rare for flakes to fall \"on\" Christmas Day. \"We've only had 17 days of measurable snow on Christmas day in 114 years,\" says Cuoco. And out of those 17 times, only on three occasions was there more than a dusting.\nBut will the white stuff that can make Christmas Day extra special be one of Santa's deliveries this year? There is a storm system moving into the Grand Valley Tuesday night that could dump a couple of inches of snow, but will the storm last until Christmas Day? \"I don't think so, by Christmas Day the storm will move to the east of us,\" says Cuoco.\nThe most recent white Christmas was just last year when three tenths of an inch fell, raising the total on the ground to five inches. The snowiest Christmas on record was 1983 when three and a half inches fell.\nSo if snow on the ground counts as a white Christmas for you, \"I think we can say we're going to have a white Christmas this year,\" says Cuoco.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Parts of Arkansas, Illinois and Missouri could even see twisters.\nThe National Weather Service confirmed Thursday that a tornado touched down Wednesday south of Stanley in northeastern Iowa. Another tornado was confirmed Wednesday night in Hastings, Minn., about 30 miles southeast of Minneapolis.\nThe weather service also was investigating reports of tornadoes in Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana.\nIn Illinois, at least 19 people were hurt and dozens of homes and businesses destroyed in the Springfield area. One person was injured when the wind flipped a car and another was blown off his motorcycle, said Roscoe Cook, nursing supervisor at St. John's Hospital in Springfield.\nWinds tore off part of a 90-year-old metal church steeple in downtown Minneapolis and damaged at least 40 homes in the south of the city.\nJack Freitag said he was standing in the lobby of the Central Lutheran Church in Minneapolis when he saw \"a wall cloud from the south coming across the parking lot.\" Then a \"very loud roar\" came through as he saw signs being blown around in the wind.\nThe wind tore off part of the church's 90-year-old metal steeple around 2 p.m. while about 120 people were inside, said church spokesman Joe Bjordal.\n\"I was worried about the people then,\" said Freitag, who told everyone to seek shelter in the church's basement. No one was injured.\nDamaged church out of commission\nOutside the church, strong winds ripped apart large outdoor tents and scattered chairs and folding tables across the parking lot that were set up for the national Evangelical Lutheran Church in America convention. The church was scheduled to serve breakfast to guests attending the event at the Minneapolis Convention Center next door.\n\"I think we're out of business\" for entertaining convention visitors, Bjordal said.\nAt the Electric Fetus, a landmark independent music store near downtown, strong winds shattered one of the store's windows and caused the roof to cave in.\n\"It was just the loudest crashing noise,\" said Stephanie Covart, the store's co-owner. \"We didn't know what was happening.\"\nMeteorologist Dan Luna said it was the sort of storm that meteorologists dread — it didn't look dangerous until it was.\n\"We worry about the really benign thunderstorm that develops a tornado in the metropolitan area,\" Luna said. \"These sort-lived ones form very quickly and dissipate very fast. They are very hard to predict.\"\nMinneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak toured the area later Wednesday to assess damage and saw a hole in the Convention Center's roof that caused water to leak in. Although there were many reports of downed trees and property damage, there were no reports of injuries, city officials said in a statement.\n\"It obviously had a significant physical impact but at this point it looks as if we're very fortunate there were relatively few injuries,\" Rybak said.\nFirst responders were going house-to-house in the area looking for victims.\nIndiana town hit by 105-mph winds\nIn northern Indiana, a storm tore the roofs from an apartment building and middle school gymnasium in Chesterton and damaged some nearby homes. Chesterton town manager Bernie Doyle said a tornado was suspected, but the National Weather Service had not confirmed it Thursday morning. No injuries were reported, Doyle said.\nWinds reaching 105 mph pounded Chesterton and for six hours almost the entire town of 12,000 had no power, the local police department said.\nChesterton utility companies responded to downed power and telephone lines overnight, while residents struggled to cope with roofs partially or entirely destroyed, downed trees, damaged vehicles, and scattered debris, NBC News reported.\nAs many as four tornadoes may have hit northeastern Iowa. Along with the one confirmed near Stanley, National Weather Service meteorologist Jeff Boyne said tornadoes were reported near Fredericksburg, Hawkeye and West Union.\nBarns were destroyed and about 40 feet of roof ripped from a vacant poultry building north of West Union. Trees fell on homes near Hawkeye, Fayette County emergency management coordinator Mike McCloud said.\nMore on: Tornadoes","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It is essential to continually check the weather forecast, to let somebody know where you’re going, and to pack your vehicle with warm blankets. Under no circumstances should travellers drive on impassable roads.\nMild Weather in the South, Despite Impassable Roads Elsewhere\nYesterday, three rainbows were spotted over Reykjavík—a sign, one might say, of good things to come.\nThe forecast for Reykjavík, in contrast to the snowstorms in the centre, north, and east of the country, has remained steadily mild, with some sunshine and light rain. The Icelandic Met Office has forecast a rain shower or two over the next few days, and a bit of a breeze with partly cloudy skies.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Hope it catches on because this is a very important subject in current events. There's no doubt that fireballs have\ndramatically increased over the last couple of years, especially in 2013. Over the course of a few posts, I'm going to submit some information that\nbegs to differ with the folks who claim that all these fireballs are normal, don't believe that nonsense. Over the course of 60 years, there were\nonly a handful of reports of space rocks actually crashing through a home, vehicle or striking an individual (that we know of) and in just the year\n2013, there were four of these incidents alone and a several others that were unsubstantiated whether they were actually space rock...the verdict is\nstill out on those ones. And there were a dozen other cases of people actually finding the space rocks after observing these exploding fireballs.\nThe AMS states that these significant events (observed by at least 25 people and then verified to be a meteor) usually only happen about four times a\nmonth. The month of September 2013 saw 13 of these events and all the events were witnessed by hundreds and thousands. This was from a story in the\nChicago Tribune on September 27.\nSignificant events - defined as being reported by more than 25 people - usually happen three to five times in a month, Hankey said. While\nmeteors fall to the earth all the time, he said, they usually go undetected as they are most easily seen during the middle of the night and because\nthey often fall where there are no people - such as over oceans, deserts or remote parts of Wyoming.\n\"For it to happen at rush hour in a densely populated area where there's millions of people on the road that have a capability of seeing it is\npretty rare,\" Hankey said. \"It's a special thing for someone who saw it, and they will probably never see it again for the rest of their\nSeptember was a very active month. For three days Sep. 19-21, Japan saw numerous fireballs with thousands of witnesses to each event, and then on Sep.\n23, another massive fireball was witnessed across nine Midwestern states with over 500 reports to the AMS. This was a report from the AMS that\nappeared at Intellihub.com on Sep. 30\nReports of meteor sightings are coming into the American Meteor Society by the thousands. According to one of the latest reports posted at the\nAmerican Meteor Society website, \"Its been a busy week for the AMS as we are bombarded by fireball reports from all different parts of the country.\nThe latest event took place over Alabama and Georgia last night September 28th 7:30 PM local time. Over 250 witnesses from Virginia, Maryland,\nKentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Alabama and Georgia have reported the event so far.\nExactly why these meteors are coming into the atmosphere at this time is unknown. NASA and NOAA have yet to publish any reports on this phenomenon,\nalthough they did confirm the September 10, 2013 meteor that streaked across the sky in Alabama in theguardian.com article 'Meteor enters atmosphere\nover Alabama and disintegrates, says Nasa'.An excerpt from the article reads, \"Officials at the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville say a\nbaseball-size fragment of a comet entered Earth's atmosphere above Alabama at 8:18pm CDT Monday. Nasa officials say the meteor traveled at a speed of\n76,000 mph. They say just three seconds after hitting the atmosphere, it disintegrated 25 miles above the central Alabama town of Woodstock, producing\na flash of light. Nasa spokeswoman Janet Anderson says that because it penetrated so deep into Earth's atmosphere, eyewitnesses heard sonic\nI've been following this phenomenon for nearly two years now along with other events and for anyone here who knows me, I'm the methane guy, and I\nstill hold fast that this fireball phenomenon has everything to do with gases in our mesosphere (the layer of the atmosphere where meteors burn up)\nand that they are reacting away in that layer. Gas normally would make the air more dense, which is what is believed to have always worked in the\nmesosphere to cause meteors to burn up once they hit the more dense air, but instead, I believe somehow the methane gases rising to this layer are\nactually thinning the air here, which is allowing the space rocks to fall much deeper into our atmosphere causing the spectacular light shows and\nfrightening explosions in the air above our heads. Don't ask me how the methane would thin the air rather than make it more dense. I'm not a\nscientist and can't explain that, I'm just making a hypothetical guess simply because after studying the release of methane gas and its affects on\nour planet and our atmosphere, this would make sense, and because the fireball phenomenon also started up along the same time as so many other current\nphenomenon, such as mass animal die-offs, disease outbreaks, sinkholes, unexplained fires and explosions, the sonic booms, earthquakes and volcanoes,\nand the extreme weather events (hot and cold, drought and floods, massive rain and snow events, etc.).\nAnyways...I hope this thread catches on. I wish you had started it in the Fragile Earth forum, but either way, this is a very important topic right\nnow and more people need to pay attention. I'll contribute some more information and also, post more fireballs to the thread as they come up if some","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

So, how was it formed and why is it there?\nHumans have long been shaping Earth’s landscape, but now we’ve discovered that we have the potential to shape our near-space environment as well.\nThe man-made barrier we created is not a bad thing as it offers effective protection against natural particle radiation in space.\nThe bubble was formed by very low frequency waves (VLFs). VLFs interact with particles in space and affect how and where they move. VLFs are used for radio communication, including submarines because they can penetrate deep into the ocean.\nWhile these waves are intended for communications below the surface, they also extend out beyond our atmosphere, shrouding Earth in a VLF bubble.\nThis bubble is even seen by spacecraft high above Earth’s surface, such as NASA’s Van Allen Probes, which study electrons and ions in the near-Earth environment.\nSpace weather is the source of aurora that shimmer in the night sky, but it also can disrupt satellites, cause power grid failures and disrupt GPS communications. The Van Allen Probes help scientists to understand this region and to better design spacecraft that can survive the rigors of space.\nThe probes have noticed an interesting coincidence — the outward extent of the VLF bubble corresponds almost exactly to the inner edge of the Van Allen radiation belts, a layer of charged particles held in place by Earth’s magnetic fields. Dan Baker, director of the University of Colorado’s Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics in Boulder, coined this lower limit the “impenetrable barrier” and speculates that if there were no human VLF transmissions, the boundary would likely stretch closer to Earth.\nIndeed, comparisons of the modern extent of the radiation belts from Van Allen Probe data show the inner boundary to be much farther away than its recorded position in satellite data from the 1960s, when VLF transmissions were more limited.\n“A number of experiments and observations have figured out that, under the right conditions, radio communications signals in the VLF frequency range can in fact affect the properties of the high-energy radiation environment around the Earth,” said Phil Erickson, assistant director at the MIT Haystack Observatory, Westford, Massachusetts.\nUnderstanding how VLFs shape our environment in space we can learn how to protect our satellites from dangerous natural radiation in space. Plans are already underway to test VLF transmissions in the upper atmosphere to see if they could remove excess charged particles — which can appear during periods of intense space weather, such as when the sun erupts with giant clouds of particles and energy.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Schools, including LSU Alexandria, were closed for the day Monday, she said.\nIn Mississippi, hundreds of people had to be rescued early Monday from their residences in Rankin County, outside Jackson, because of high water, reported CNN affiliate WLBT.\nThere also was flooding and wind damage in central Mississippi, with water rescues in the Vicksburg area, Lamb said.\nHe said the Big Black River was rising quickly in Mississippi’s Bovina community and water had also entered homes around Pearl.\nA tornado watch covered part of the Gulf Coast on Monday, including New Orleans and Mobile, said CNN meteorologist Dave Hennen. A severe thunderstorm watch covered much of central Alabama, including Montgomery, until noon.\nThere was a considerable threat of flash flooding from east Texas into Louisiana and Mississippi, CNN meteorologist Michael Guy said.\n“Some areas have already seen over 5 inches with these severe storms (Sunday) in Louisiana, and the storms are slow moving. Rainfall could exceed up to another 3-6 inches locally in some areas causing flash flooding into the morning hours.”\nCNN’s Jamiel Lynch and Nicole Chavez contributed to this story.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Fifteen people in northeast Nebraska were injured in a tornado Friday, while three died in a car accident on a snow-slicked road.\nForecasters said the front would eventually combine with other storms to make for a wild - and probably very wet - weekend for much of the central U.S. and Southeast.\nPower outages and impassable roads plagued western South Dakota on Saturday. More than 25,000 people had lost power in the Black Hills area, and authorities were recruiting snowmobilers to help rescue about 80 motorists who'd been stuck overnight.\nRapid City plow driver Jesse Curnow said Saturday morning things weren't moving so smoothly in chest-high drifts after a record 21-inch snowfall. He couldn't get out of the business' parking lot.\n\"I'm trapped. I can kind of move, but only a little bit,\" Curnow said by telephone from the cab of his truck.\nPennington County Emergency Management spokeswoman Alexa White said rescue efforts were slow-going, because \"the only way to get there is the snowmobiles or the Sno-Cats.\"\n\"The plows have gotten stuck in the roads,\" she said.\nAlso stuck were four employees of the National Weather Service's Rapid City office. They'd been there since Friday, meteorologist David Carpenter said Saturday.\n\"There is a 3-foot drift across the parking lot and no one has had the energy to shovel it out yet,\" he said.\nFriday's snowfall - 19 inches - broke the previous one-day snowfall record for October by about nine inches; it was set on Oct. 19, 1919, Carpenter said. Rapid City saw an extra 2.5 inches overnight. Friday also surpassed the record for the entire month, 15.1 inches, also set in 1919.\nNational Weather Service meteorologist Katie Pojorlie said Lead, S.D., in the northern Black Hills had received 43 ½ inches of snow by 7:30 p.m. Friday and more had fallen overnight.\nThat's not unheard of in the area, according to Donna Heaton, manager of the Terry Peak Lodge.\n\"Last year in April, we got over 50 inches after the ski area closed. It would be nice to help the local economy if all the snow would fall when the ski area and the snowmobile trails were open,\" she told AP radio.\nAnd in southwest North Dakota, about 10 inches of snow fell Friday, the National Weather Service said.\nInterstate 90 was still closed in the western part of South Dakota on Saturday, and officials advised against travel elsewhere as white-out conditions kept snowplows from making much progress on roads until at least late in the day.\n\"... There's no place to go even if you do get your of your driveway and onto your street,\" state Transportation Secretary Darin Bergquist said in a statement.\nCrews with Black Hills Power weren't able to work overnight because of blowing snow, spokesman Mutch Usera said. The Black Hills' rough terrain and downed tree branches were also hampering restoration efforts, he said.\n\"Hopefully, the sun will shine a little bit and get a bit warmer. That's going to make it easier,\" Usera said.\nWhen temperatures warm up into the 50s by Monday, the snow melt could cause flooding, White said, but officials are just focusing on rescue efforts for now.\nMeanwhile, National Weather Service meteorologist Mike Fuhs said as many as nine tornadoes touched down in Iowa and Nebraska between 6 p.m. and 7:45 p.m. Friday. He called some of them \"quite powerful,\" and noted it was unusual to see so many and with such power during the fall.\nSome of the most severe tornado damage was in Wayne, Neb., where at least 10 buildings were destroyed and five were heavily damaged, the Omaha World-Herald reported. Video showed a farm implement showroom and a grain elevator had been destroyed. Mayor Ken Chamberlain said at least 15 people were injured, with one person in critical condition.\nIn northwest Iowa, nearly two dozen farmsteads were destroyed and 60 damaged, said Woodbury County Emergency Director Gary Brown. He said the storms cut a 35-mile-long path through the county, but there was only one report of a minor injury.\nThe cold front is moving slowly east and expanding south and will meet up with the remnants of Tropical Storm Karen. Pojorlie noted that the wet, heavy snow was more typical of a spring storm.\n\"Normally, we get some snow events here in October that give people a little bit of a chance to learn how to drive in snow again,\" she said. \"This year, we got started with a blizzard.\"\nTake ABC13 with you!\nDownload our free apps for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This large wind fetch has resulted in the largest swell in Sydney since last August.\nFigure 1: ASCAT 50km NRT satellite wind observations at about 10pm AEDT Friday 26th showing a large swath of the Tasman Sea (orange box) with south-to-southeasterly winds in the 30-35 knot range, leading to a large swell building across the Sydney and NSW coastline over the weekend. (NOAA OSPO)\nThe Sydney Waverider Buoy, located off the coast of the Northern Beaches, measured a peak in significant wave height (Hsig) at 1pm on Saturday at 4.4m (see figure 2 below), while a maximum wave height of 7.8m was measured just before lunchtime. While this narrowly beat a peak Hsig of 4.3m set in mid-September, it fell quite short of the peak Hsig set by a bombing Tasman Low in August of about 5.5m. Further south, the Port Kembla buoy measured an Hsig of 4.3m in the early hours of Saturday.\nFigure 2 : Directional Spectrum analysis of significant wave heights in Sydney at 1pm AEDT on Saturday showing a significant wave height on 4.4m, with a moderate period of about 12 seconds, making for particularly hazardous surf conditions - not that anyone wanted to be at the beach yesterday...

This will coincide with an easing trend in the strong and gusty southerly winds that have been affecting the eastern fringe of the state. Winds will become light on Monday, which should offer some good opportunity for surfers to tap into the tail end of this swell event.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The hole formed near the solar equator on December 2 and reached a maximum width of about 497,000 miles (800,000 kilometers—about the size of 60 Earths side by side) in 24 hours, Spaceweather.com reports. Since December 4, this hole has been pointed directly at Earth.\nExperts initially predicted that this hole could cause a moderate (G2) geomagnetic storm that would lead to radio blackouts and strong auroras over the next few days. However, the solar wind turned out to be less intense than expected, so the resulting geomagnetic storm is still assessed as weak (G1). But it's worth noting that auroras are still possible at high latitudes.\nAccording to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), it is unknown how long the hole will remain on the Sun, but previous coronal holes have existed for more than one solar revolution (27 days). One way or another, soon the hole will turn away from the Earth.\nCoronal holes occur when the magnetic fields holding the Sun in place suddenly open up, causing the contents of the Sun's upper surface to be blown away as the solar wind. Coronal holes appear as dark spots because they are cooler and less dense than the surrounding plasma. Sunspots appear black for much the same reason, but unlike sunspots, coronal holes can only be seen when viewed under ultraviolet light.\nAccording to NOAA, radiation flows from coronal holes are much faster than the normal solar wind, and they often cause disturbances in the Earth's magnetic field, known as geomagnetic storms.\nSolar activity has been increasing throughout the year as the Sun approaches the explosive peak of its roughly 11-year solar cycle known as solar maximum. Typically, new coronal holes do not appear during increasing solar activity. Of course, coronal holes can occur at any point in the solar cycle, but in fact they are more common during solar minimum. And when they appear during solar maximum, they are usually located near the sun's poles rather than near the equator. So it remains a mystery how such a massive hole opened near the equator when we are so close to solar maximum.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

To nourish the vegetation of the earth, the actinic and luminous rays of the sun must penetrate our atmosphere, and to such rays aqueous vapor is eminently transparent. The violet and the extra-violet rays pass through it with freedom. To protect vegetation from destructive chills, the terrestrial rays must be checked in their transit toward stellar space, and this is accomplished by the aqueous vapor diffused through the air. This substance is the great moderator of the earth's temperature, bringing its extremes into proximity, and obviating contrasts between day and night which would render life insupportable.\nThat was John Tyndall, 140 years ago.\nHe told three generations, in his physics text \"Heat as a Mode of Motion,\" just what the greenhouse effect was. If I were a Californian and thirty years younger, I would say, \"Gee, that is so.... great!\"\nMany of my meteorologist and climatologist friends don't know now what Tyndall knew in 1864 or, at least, seem to think it is some new discovery of the GCM era. What a difference 140 years doesn't make.\nWater in the air determines the floor below which daily temperatures do not fall. Water for evaporation, if available, determines the ceiling above which temperatures do not rise. If minimum and maximum temperatures are at atmospheric water's beck and call, how then do greenhouse gases work?\nFor more than a year I have found this a most difficult question. People who say they are in the know, say that average temperature will increase in a greenhouse gas-enriched world. They calculate their average temperature as the minimum temperature plus the maximum temperature and divide by two. So, how does your common greenhouse gas play a role if they do not control minimum and maximum temperatures? And how can we detect it if still does?\nJ. Tyndall, F. R. S. (March 17, 1864).

Here’s a look back:\nFrom May 18-21, a deadly tornado outbreak swept through the great plains. Over the course of four days, 61 tornadoes claimed 26 lives, injured 400 people, and caused an estimated $5 billion in damage. The worst tornado of the bunch was a powerful EF5 tornado that struck Moore, Oklahoma, on May 20th. That tornado reached an unbelievable 210 miles an hour, destroying more than 1,500 homes, and damaging another 4,000 in its 17-mile path. That tornado alone was responsible for 24 of the 26 deaths of the outbreak.\nIn late June, a lightning strike set off a towering wildfire near the town of Yarnell, Arizona. The fire raged for nearly two weeks, destroying more than 100 homes and 8,000 acres of forest before it was fully contained on July 10th. Tragically, 19 firefighters lost their lives on June 30th trying to battle the blaze, making it the deadliest wildfire in Arizona history.\nA little over a month after the Yarnell Hill fire, on August 17th, another wildfire started in the rim of the Sierra Nevada mountains in California after a hunter lit an unpermitted fire. The California Rim Fire was the third largest wildfire in California’s history, having burned 257,314 acres, including portions of Yosemite National Park. The fire threatened many of the park’s giant sequoias, which are some of the biggest and oldest living things on Earth, and displaced many wild animals. The fire burned for more than two months before it was finally contained on October 24th. Many buildings were destroyed, including 11 homes, but, despite the size of the blaze, there were only 10 injuries and no fatalities.\nIn early September, heavy rains that dumped as much as 20 inches on parts of Boulder, Colorado, resulted in widespread flash floods that destroyed roads, homes and shut down the region for weeks after. The flood claimed eight lives, destroyed 1,500 homes, and resulted in more than $2 billion in damage.\nFinally, on November 7, Typhoon Haiyan, also known as Typhoon Yolanda, slammed into the Philippines, killing more than 6,000 people. This powerful storm was 3.5 times stronger than Hurricane Katrina, and buried portions of the island nation under a massive 15-foot high storm surge.\nThe one bright spot of 2013 was that it brought an unusually mild hurricane season. In fact, this year was the least active hurricane season in more than 30 years. Only two actual hurricanes formed — Hurricane Humberto and Hurricane Ingrid — and neither were major hurricanes. Both were only Category 1, the weakest rating.\nWhat’s in store for the coming year? Check our long-range forecast!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

All three government agencies feel confident they could deal with such a meteorological anomaly today.\n“Oh, yeah,” said Mike Russell, a senior engineering associate for Lane County’s Road Maintenance Division. The key would be mobilizing bodies in the beginning, that’s always a “scramble,” Russell said.\nThe city of Eugene had seven “transformed” snowplows on the roads during the winter storm that hit Lane County in mid-December, Public Works Department spokesman Eric Jones said. “If we got 3 feet of snow (again), we’d be ready for it,” Jones said. “But it’s certainly not something we’re hoping for.”\nThe city of Springfield has one plow it attaches to a one-ton truck, said Greg Ferschweiler of the Maintenance Division of the city’s Public Works Department. “It’s not really efficient for the city to spend a lot of money on snow equipment,” he said.\n“It’s a lot of money to start outfitting your trucks for something that happens every couple of years,” said Ferschweiler, speaking of any significant snowfall in the area.\nAnd what exactly are the chances of another “Big Snow” in Lane County anytime soon? “It’s definitely a rare event,” said Clinton Rockey, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Portland. “I’m sure it will happen again, but the big question is when and where?”\nThe 1969 blizzard was caused by “overrunning moisture from a low-pressure center going into California,” meteorologist Leonard James at the Eugene Weather Station explained to The Register-Guard then. “Warm, wet air moving at upper levels over cold surface air in the valleys ... moisture from warm, wet air became snow as it moved over the Eugene-Springfield area ... the low center moving inland was responsible for California’s worst floods in more than 30 years.”\nThen another low-pressure center a lazy, slow-moving center with a tremendous capability for drawing in moisture settled off the Washington coast and set its snowy sights on Eugene-Springfield.\nThe low combined with an upper-air trough to send large amounts of moisture and a flow of unusually cold Alaskan air into an area stretching from Roseburg up to British Columbia. While Roseburg got 2 feet, Salem only got 11 inches, Portland 8 inches and Seattle 6 inches.\nAlthough Eugene-Springfield got hit with a pretty nasty winter storm this December, it was Portland, just 110 miles away, that got hit much harder this time around. More than a foot of snow fell in that area around Christmastime during its biggest snowstorm in decades. Combined with winds and sub-freezing temperatures, the storm created chaos at Portland International Airport as airline passengers were stranded for days or just gave up, and motorists were stranded around the metro area as the city used battered and inefficient plows from the 1970s, according to The Oregonian.\nThe estimated cost of the January 1969 snowstorm in Lane County was about $2 million about $11 million in today’s dollars according to news reports then. Lane County farmers lost an estimated $532,000. Poultry producers lost 33,000 chickens when roofs collapsed. The Small Business Administration declared Lane County residents eligible for disaster relief, and Gov. Tom McCall declared a limited state of emergency for Lane and Coos counties, as well as the Portland metro area.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The $11 billion spaceport, built in 1962 away from populated areas, sits directly next to a thin, eroding stretch of beach. If the hurricane hits the space center, it would be the most powerful storm to rock Cape Canaveral in its more than 50 year history.\nIn addition to winds that could exceed 140 mph, the launch complex needs to worry about the possibility of highly destructive flooding. As Gizmodo points out, surge flooding varies significantly on the tides. If a hurricane surge hits at high tide, it could mean floods of up to nine feet. Most of Cape Canaveral's facilities sit between five and 10 feet above sea level, and its facilities are rated to withstand winds between 105 and 130 mph.\nCape Canaveral has suffered storm-related damage before, but nothing like what Hurricane Matthew could do if it stays its predicted course. In 2004, Category 2 Hurricane Frances made landfall 100 miles south of the spaceport and caused roughly $100 million in damage when storm-force winds ripped hundreds of panels off the Vehicle Assembly Building, according to Gizmodo. Hurricane Sandy ripped a 100-foot chunk of beach at Cape Canaveral into the ocean when it passed 200 miles offshore, a setback that required millions to be spent in shoreline reinforcement work.\nMore From Popular Mechanics\nKennedy Space Center has entered HURCON I and Cape Canaveral HURCON II, meaning a storm with 50-knot (58 mph) winds or greater is expected in the next 12 or 24 hours, respectively. All non-essential personal have been evacuated and operations have been suspended at both complexes.\nAll the Space Coast can do now is hope that Hurricane Matthew drifts farther out into the Atlantic than its current heading.\nJay Bennett is the associate editor of PopularMechanics.com. He has also written for Smithsonian, Popular Science and Outside Magazine.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

About 2 to 3 feet of snow were even forecast for mountainous parts of West Virginia.\nThe tempest could endanger up to 50 million people for days.\nMany workers planned to stay home Monday as subways, buses and trains shut down across the region under the threat of flooding that could inundate tracks and tunnels. Airports also closed, and authorities warned that the time for evacuation was running out or already past. Utilities brought in extra crews in anticipation of widespread power failures.\nThe centre of the storm was positioned to come ashore Monday night in New Jersey, meaning the worst of the surge could be in the northern part of that state and in New York City and on Long Island. Higher tides brought by a full moon compounded the threat to the metropolitan area of about 20 million people. ``This is the worst-case scenario,'' said Louis Uccellini,\nenvironmental prediction chief for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.\nAs rain from the leading edges began to fall over the Northeast on Sunday, hundreds of thousands of people from Maryland to Connecticut were ordered to leave low-lying coastal areas, including 375,000 in lower Manattan and other parts of New York City, 50,000 in Delaware and 30,000 in Atlantic City, N.J., where the city's 12 casinos shut down for only the fourth time ever.\nPresident Barack Obama declared emergencies in Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania, authorizing federal relief work to begin well ahead of time. He promised the government would ``respond big and respond fast'' after the storm hits. ``My message to the governors as well as to the mayors is anything they need, we will be there, and we will cut through red tape,'' Obama said. ``We are not going to get bogged down with a lot of rules.''\nAuthorities warned that New York could get hit with a surge of seawater that could swamp parts of lower Manhattan, flood subway tunnels and cripple the network of electrical and communications lines that are vital to the nation's financial centre.\nMajor U.S. financial markets, including the New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq and CME Group in Chicago, planned a rare shutdown Monday. The NYSE shut down on Sept. 27, 1985, for Hurricane Gloria. The United Nations also shut down and cancelled all meetings at its New York headquarters.\nNew York called off school Monday for the city's 1.1 million students and announced it would suspend all train, bus and subway service Sunday night. More than 5 million riders a day depend on the transit system.\nSandy, a Category 1 hurricane with sustained winds of 75 mph, was blamed for 65 deaths in the Caribbean before it began travelling northward, parallel to the Eastern Seaboard. As of 2 a.m. Monday, it was centred about 425 miles southeast of New York City, moving to the north at 14 mph, with hurricane-force winds extending an unusual 175 miles from its centre.\nGale-force winds blew overnight over coastal North Carolina, southeastern Virginia, the Delmarva Peninsula and coastal New Jersey.\nSandy was expected to hook inland Monday, colliding with a wintry storm moving in from the west and cold air streaming down from the Arctic, and then cut across into Pennsylvania and travel up through New York state.\nForecasters said the combination could bring close to a foot of rain in places, a potentially lethal storm surge of 4 to 11 feet across much of the region, and punishing winds that could cause\nwidespread power outages that last for days. The storm could also dump up to 2 feet of snow in Kentucky, North Carolina and West Virginia.\nAirlines cancelled nearly 7,500 flights and Amtrak began suspending train service across the Northeast. New York, Philadelphia, Washington and Baltimore moved to shut down their\nsubways, buses and trains. Those cities shut down their schools, as did Boston. Non-essential government offices closed in the nation's capital. Pennsylvania's largest utilities brought in hundreds of line and tree-trimming crews in anticipation of several days of powerfailures or intentional shutdowns in areas with heavy flooding.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Most places dry, but scattered showers will affect some Atlantic coastal areas, according to Met Eireann. Saturday night will be dry and very cold as temperatures fall to between +2 and -2 degrees. Winds will be light and mist and fog patches will develop as well as frost.\nA cold, frosty start to Sunday but as high pressure builds over the country, it will mean dry weather with sunny spells, according to Met Eireann. A cool day with temperatures struggling and only ranging from 6 to 9 degrees in light winds. It will be another very cold night with temperatures once again falling below freezing in many places. There will be a widespread ground frost as temperatures dip to between +1 and -3 degrees, with fog patches returning, Met Eireann says.\nThe Road Safety Authority (RSA) has the following advice for road users in ice and fog conditions:\nGet a grip. Remember your only contact with the road surface is your tyres so it’s vital that they are up to the task in icy and snowy conditions. Check tyres, including spare wheel, and replace them if the tread depth falls below 3mm. Check that tyres are inflated to the correct tyre pressure. Lack of grip can occur even on treated roads so drive slowly in the highest gear possible, manoeuvre gently and avoid harsh braking. Replace tyres if necessary.\nMake sure you can see. Clear your windows and mirrors before you set out, carry a screen scraper and de-icer. Do not use hot water on the windscreen as it can crack the glass. Replace windshield wiper blades if necessary. De-mist the inside of your windows thoroughly. Make sure your windshield washer system works and is full of an anti-icing fluid. Watch out for grit/salt spreaders.\nCheck & use your lights. Use your dipped headlights so that others will see you. Make sure your headlights and taillights are all in working order, replace broken bulbs.\nGently does it. Manoeuvre gently, slow down and leave extra distance between you and the vehicle in front. Fog, rain, or hail will reduces visibility. Do not hang on to the tail lights of the vehicle in front of you as it can give a false sense of security. When you slow down, use your brakes so that the brake lights warn drivers behind you. Don’t forget to turn off your fog lights when the fog has cleared.\nWatch out for ‘black ice’. If the road looks polished or glossy it could be, ‘black ice’ one of winter’s worst hazards.\nGive yourself a brake. If you get into a skid, you need to know if your vehicle has ABS (Anti- Lock Braking Systems). After you “Step” on the brake the ABS begins cycling — you will feel pulses in the pedal or hear the system working. It’s easy to properly use antilock brakes: Remember – Step, Stay and Steer. Step on the pedal. Stay on the pedal. Steer around the obstacle.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Inland Northwest is in the thick of it this time of year. November through January is peak season for this atmospheric marvel and 2016 is no exception.\nLast month, Spokane International Airport recorded 20 days of varying fog conditions. On eight of those days were periods of fog heavy enough to reduce visibility to a quarter-mile or less.\nThat is to say, it was a dense blanket of gray known to obscure farmlands, buildings and highways from a distance of several blocks away.\nThough fog “comes on little cat feet” as poet Carl Sandburg wrote in 1916, it can still barrel in like a tsunami made of mist. And while most of us associate it with coastal areas like San Francisco – the famous fog that often shrouds the Golden Gate Bridge is called Karl and even has a twitter account – the Inland Northwest gets its own version that appears less frequently and at a different time of year.\nRegardless of where it is formed, fog is made up of condensed water droplets suspended in air, very much like a cloud that’s close to the ground. Instead of rolling in off the Pacific Ocean, the fog we get is mostly formed on land.\nThat’s because the fertile soils that make our region so agriculturally productive retain moisture after a rain or snowfall. Contributing to the moisture is the cool dense air that collects as water vapor on the valley floor.\nBecause we’re in a valley, a high pressure system can work like a lid to trap cooler air at ground level. Called a temperature inversion, it occurs when warmer air tops the cooler layer. During these inversion conditions, fog can form when both moisture and pollutants become trapped in the lower cold air. Stable conditions keep the air from rising, sometimes locking the fog in for days.\nFortunately, the heavy fog we saw in November was short-lived and did not cause vehicle pile-ups or major flight delays. Knowing it will probably return, keep in mind that the American Automobile Association warns that most fog-related accidents involve motorists who drive too fast.\nReduce your speed, avoid sudden stops, and increase following distance, the agency advises. Use the right edge of the road or painted road markings as a guide. And if you must pull off the road, do so as far as possible and make sure your hazard lights are turned on.\nLocal journalism is essential.\nGive directly to The Spokesman-Review's Northwest Passages community forums series -- which helps to offset the costs of several reporter and editor positions at the newspaper -- by using the easy options below.

A temperature rebound is forecast for the region to start the weekend.Each of the three days of the Memorial Day weekend is likely to feature at least partial sunshine and highs mainly in the 80s F for Seattle and Spokane, Washington, and Boise, Idaho.\nTemperatures could touch 90 in Portland and Pendleton, Oregon, on Sunday and Memorial Day. Highs in the 90s are likely at The Dalles, Oregon, and Redding, California, where temperatures could even touch 100.\nHighs will be within a few degrees of record levels on Sunday and Monday.\nJust enough of an offshore flow is likely to last long enough each day to allow the warmth to reach some of the coastal areas.

Surf temperatures along the Washington and Oregon coasts range from the upper 40s to the upper 50s. Water temperatures along some streams originating from the Cascades and Rockies are lower.\nAttempting to swim in waters this cold can immediately lead to cold water shock, followed by much more dangerous and life-threatening conditions, according to the United States Coast Guard.\nSymptoms of cold water shock include gasp reflex, hyperventilation, difficulty holding your breath, rapid heart rate and elevated blood pressure. Following these symptoms, muscle cramps, hypothermia, drowning or cardiac arrest can occur.\nHypothermia can occur in any water temperature below 70, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The babies were also at somewhat higher risk of dying from sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDS.\nStudy co-author Michelle Wilhelm said the meaning of the research is clear. \"It just adds to the body of evidence showing that exposure to high air pollution can lead to infant death,\" said Wilhelm, an adjunct assistant professor of epidemiology at the University of California, Los Angeles.\nWilhelm and her colleagues examined the records of 19,664 infants who died between 1989 and 2000 in California's South Coast Air Basin, which includes much of the area in and around Los Angeles, including parts of Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties. About three million babies were born during that time in the area.\nFor each infant who died, the researchers found 10 living infants to use as comparisons. Then, they examined the local levels of air pollution for all the babies at two weeks, one month, two months and six months before the deaths occurred.\nOverall, only about two infants per 10,000 died of respiratory-related illnesses. But according to the researchers, the risk of respiratory death more than doubled in infants aged 7 months to 12 months who were exposed to \"high average\" levels of very small particles of pollution known as particulate matter.\nThe risk of dying of SIDS went up by 15 percent to 19 percent for every 1 part per hundred million increase in average nitrogen dioxide levels at two months before death.\nThe researchers also found that younger infants were more likely to suffer higher rates of death from respiratory illness if they were exposed to higher levels of carbon monoxide two weeks before death.\nThe study findings were published in the August issue of the journal Pediatrics.\nWilhelm acknowledged that the number of deaths from respiratory disease was still very small despite the heavy air pollution in Los Angeles, considered one of the smoggiest places in the country. Still, \"the potential for disease prevention through further air pollution abatement may be substantial since millions of infants are exposed to similar or greater air pollution concentrations worldwide,\" she said.\nDr. Rachel Moon, a pediatrician and SIDS specialist who's familiar with the study, questioned whether other factors could affect the respiratory health of the infants, such as whether they spent time outdoors or were exposed to cigarette smoke. \"That would have a huge impact on their pollution exposure, (but) none of this was measured,\" said Moon, of the Children's National Medical Center, in Washington, D.C.\nAs for the seemingly higher risk of SIDS, Moon said researchers already knew that tobacco exposure is a major risk factor, possibly due to tiny particles that get into the lungs.\nWhat's next? Dr. Jonathan Grigg, professor of pediatric respiratory and environmental medicine at Queen Mary's School of Medicine and Dentistry in the United Kingdom, said the current methods of research into the effects of air pollution on infants are \"still very crude.\"\nIdeally, he said, researchers would actually put portable air-monitoring devices on infants to get more reliable numbers.\nTo learn more about air pollution and its effects on your health, visit the American Lung Association.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Wide Field and Planetary Camera-2 was used to take approximately 500 images of the collisions between July 15 and 26. Nearly 100 images also were taken of the comet fragments before they crashed to help scientists determine the fragment orbits, sizes and any evidence of fragment disintegration. Jupiter is currently about 780 million kilometers (480 million miles) from Hubble's orbit around Earth.\nObservations will continue using the Wide Field and Planetary Camera-2 through the end of August, while debris continues to pummel the planet. This showering of comet debris will occur on the planet's near side as viewed from Earth. The collisions will occur at a decreasing pace both in terms of impact frequency and characteristic size of the individual particles.\nAs the events subside, astronomers will be interested in observing changes in the characteristics of the impact sites. The impact features appear to be evolving on time scales of days as the dark cloud sites move and become distorted by Jupiter's winds. Because these dark impact regions are at higher altitudes than the regular Jovian cloud decks, tracking the spots will provide an opportunity to measure the speed and direction of winds in Jupiter's upper atmosphere.\nThe Wide Field and Planetary Camera-2 is taking\nadvantage of its ultraviolet capability -- not available\nfrom Earth-based telescopes -- to image the best full-disc\nultraviolet photographs ever taken of Jupiter. Ultraviolet\nlight is quickly absorbed by the planet's atmosphere so it\ndoes not penetrate very far.

This particular tornado hit the Midway Trailer park in Indiana, killing 33 people.\nApril 15-21 is severe weather awareness week\nWednesday (yesterday) was the 47th anniversary of the April 11, 1965 Palm Sunday tornadoes—the second deadliest tornado outbreak in history. There were 47 tornadoes in five states, including 12 tornadoes in Michigan. The F4 that moved through Ottawa County and northern Kent County went for 21 miles, caused 142 injuries, and 5 deaths. Counting all five states, there were 271 fatalities and 1,500 were injured that day.\nFollowing that particular tornado outbreak, the NOAA National Weather Service underwent changes to improve severe weather forecasts and warnings, including establishing the Watch and Warning Program that exists today and the weather spotter program, SKYWARN.\nNext week, April 15-21, is severe weather awareness week, and the Michigan Committee for Severe Weather Awareness wants to make sure residents are prepared for possible severe weather, including tornadoes, lighting, flooding, or thunderstorm winds.\nAccording to the National Weather Service, there were four deaths and 31 injuries in Michigan from severe weather in 2011. All of the deaths and injuries resulted from either lightning or thunderstorm winds. Flooding, severe thunderstorms and tornadoes were responsible for about $150 million in damages in 2011, down from the $360 million in damages in 2010.\nIn 2011, there were 15 tornadoes across the state, which is very close to the average of 16. Fortunately, only four of the 15 tornadoes in 2011 caused significant damage, and six of the 15 tornadoes didn’t cause any damage. It could be argued that prior to the proliferation of cameras over the past couple of decades that those six non-damaging tornadoes may have never been recorded.\nLightning was also an issue. A family was on a tubing outing on the Au Sable River on July 23 when a thunderstorm rapidly developed, and they attempted to exit the river and find shelter. They had just exited the river when three of the individuals were struck by lightning. Two women were pronounced dead at the scene. A man was transported to a hospital in Saginaw in critical condition. He would survive, but require a 10-day hospital stay and considerable physical therapy. The survivor had no recollection of the incident.\nWhat should you do in case of severe weather?\nWhen a thunderstorm warning is issued for your area, get indoors immediately and do not use the telephone or electrical appliances. Keep away from windows. Do not take shelter in sheds or under isolated trees. If you are out boating and swimming, get to land and find a sturdy shelter immediately.\nA tornado warning means that a tornado has been spotted or is indicated on Doppler radar. Go immediately to the basement or a small interior room on the lowest level of a permanent structure. A good rule of thumb is to put as many walls between you and the tornado as possible. Keep away from chimneys and windows. Broken glass and wind-blown projectiles cause more injuries and deaths than collapsed buildings. Protect your head with a pillow, blanket, or mattress. Leave mobile homes and find shelter in a sturdy building.\nTo prepare for severe weather, the Michigan Committee for Severe Weather Awareness suggests that you:\n* Plan ahead. Be sure everyone in your household knows where to go and what to do in case of severe weather. Make plans for those who may have trouble getting to shelter.\n* Have emergency supplies on hand, including a battery-operated radio, a flashlight and a fresh supply of batteries.\n* Know the shelter locations in public buildings, such as work, schools and shopping centers.\n* Make a list of household furnishings and other items. Take photographs of each room. Store the list and photos in safe place.\n* Have an emergency communication plan. Know how to reach family and friends if you are unable to meet at home.\n* Create an emergency plan for your pets.\nClick here to find out facts on tornadoes, lightning and flood safety, and tips to prepare a plan to evacuate your pet","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Ram RamanathanClimate Change has already reached unprecedented levels with record breaking weather extremes. Over the last two decades when the mean warming was around 0.9 C, about 606000 people perished and 4.1 billion displaced due to weather extremes. In about eight to eleven years, global warming will cross the dangerous threshold of 1.5 C warming. As we recover from the COVID crisis by 2025, the evidence for the oncoming 1.5 C warming will be prevalent worldwide. I will show, how due to two way human-natural systems interactions, there is very little that society can do to avoid crossing the threshold of 1.5 C.The world's poorest three billion, whose contributions to the global warming emissions is about 5% or less, are likely to suffer the worst consequences of the more than 50% amplification of the warming within a decade. I will explore, with mathematical models and practical field studies in rural areas of India, the actions the rest of society can take in response to this huge ethical dilemma and build resilience among the poorest three billion. In so doing, it is remarkable that the wealthiest one billion can also bend the warming curve well below 2 C within the next 25 years.About the speaker:Ramanathan is Distinguished Research Professor of climate sustainability at the University of California at San Diego and Cornell Climate Solutions Scholar, Cornell University. He discovered the greenhouse effect of chlorofulorocarbons and other heat trapping pollutants gases. His findings on Non-CO2 global warming pollutants have led to several successful climate mitigation actions worldwide. He is the recipient of the prestigious 2021 Blue Planet Prize and the 2018 Tang Prize.

Initiatives have addressed methane emission measurement in natural gas distribution systems, and the team is evaluating and developing technologies for leak detection and quantification for gas utilities.\nManaging the Collaboratory for Advancing Methane Science (CAMS) to better understand global methane emissions\nGTI will serve as the program administrator for a new industry-led collaborative research consortium that will work to advance methane science to better understand global methane emissions and the need for additional solutions.\nThe Collaboratory to Advance Methane Science (CAMS) will pursue scientific studies addressing methane emissions along the natural gas value chain, from production through end use. Studies will focus on detection, measurement and quantification of methane emissions with the goal of finding opportunities for reduction.\nCAMS will bring together a diverse group of experts from industry, academia, and federal and state agencies to deliver factual data that can be used to inform regulations and policy development. The consortium will effectively communicate findings to program stakeholders and the general public. Results will be independently published by the research project team in peer-reviewed scientific journals.\nThe consortium was created by leading energy companies Cheniere, Chevron, Equinor, ExxonMobil, and Pioneer Natural Resources, and other companies from across the natural gas value chain are encouraged to join.\nGTI will manage the overall program, including individual research projects, as well as fiscal elements.\nQuantifying methane emissions\n- A project to quantify methane emissions from distribution pipelines for the California Air Resources Board (CARB) was completed, providing important information on natural gas leaks from local distribution companies and improving methane emission estimates from this sector. State-specific emission factors based on pipe material were developed and utilized to estimate methane emissions at the state level. The next phase of work is focusing on methane emissions from residential customer meters.\n- In addition, GTI is performing an assessment of fugitive emissions from the natural gas system in commercial buildings for the California Energy Commission that will quantify total building emissions. These efforts will help to create a holistic picture of the total leakage from natural gas activities in California. Field measurements of methane emission from commercial restaurants has been completed and data analysis is underway.\n- GTI and partners received a DOE award to conduct field campaigns to measure methane emissions from new and vintage plastic, plastic-lined steel and cast-iron pipes, as well as from industrial meters. Information collected on parameters will allow further classification of pipeline and meter emission categories to improve the EPA’s U.S. Greenhouse Gas Inventory and help operators prioritize the repair of leaks.\n- GTI and RTI International will serve as subcontractors to PPG Industries in a DOE-sponsored project to develop and demonstrate a system to provide remote monitoring of natural gas pipeline conditions and to provide early detection of factors that may lead to an unintended release of methane.\nEnhancing the ability of utilities to measure methane emissions more accurately\nWorking closely with operators and industry stakeholders, GTI collected and analyzed leak data for buried pipe at a host of sites in the U.S. Using better-quality methods for the quantification of methane emissions, GTI’s work is leading to more precise measurement so policymakers and private industry can have more accurate information. This high-quality data will improve estimates for activity data and promote the acceptance of new methane emissions quantification methods for compliance with EPA reporting requirements and other regulations under development.\nMidstream methane mitigation\nGTI and Jet Propulsion Laboratory are developing, testing, and demonstrating a high-efficiency integrated methane mitigation thermoelectric generator (MMTEG)/burner system for oil and gas field operations. The thermoelectric generator provides power to compress air that is used instead of natural gas to operate the pneumatic controllers, resulting in natural gas recovery and reduced methane emissions. Initial experiments to simulate heat transfer to the thermoelectric generators have been completed. (repeated under Unconventional Gas Focus Area)\nResidential methane detectors (RMDs) augment existing safety programs and their adoption adds another layer of protection for the detection of leaks. (link this to entry living under Enhancing Customer Gas Safety above if possible, or just repeat that entry here.\nEducation and outreach: CH4 Connections and the Center for Methane Research (CMR)\nCH4 Connections Methane Emissions Conference\nThe rapidly changing landscape of technology, regulation, and work practices take center stage at the annual CH4 Connections Methane Emissions Conference. The 2018 conference was hosted in Fort Collins, bringing together over 250 leading research experts, policy makers, and environmental advocates to collaborate and share perspectives. Methane leakage, technologies to detect and reduce emissions, policy and regulatory options, and business implications and opportunities were addressed.\nCenter for Methane Research (CMR)\nThe CMR is a GTI collaborative program launched in 2016 with a focus on understanding and reducing atmospheric methane concentrations.

A lightning strike reportedly struck a traffic signal in Pacific Beach, forcing it to flash red.\nViewers also sent NBC 7 video of hail pouring down in Lemon Grove and Mission Hills.\nViewer Cesar Gumapas sent in this video outside his Lemon Grove home.\nIn Spring Valley, minor flooding created a headache for local drivers Friday evening.\nNBC 7's Dagmar Midcap said the chance for rain and snow was fading as the storm system headed east.

That will bring another chance for wintery weather Monday.\nA coastal flood advisory is in effect until noon Sunday, so low lying areas like Imperial Beach, Mission Beach, La Jolla Shores, Cardiff and Oceanside could see some flooding.\nLifeguards were on alert because of a high surf advisory in effect through late in the day.

Built by Ball Aerospace and Technologies Corp., ICESat spacecraft worked perfectly throughout the entire mission, said Possel.\nAccording to Darrin Osborne, LASP flight director for ICESat, the students had specific procedures to follow during the satellite decommissioning.\n“They ran calculations to determine where the spacecraft was located and made predictions for NASA ground stations that tracked it,” he said. “The students did this seven days a week until the decommission was complete.”\nStudents in charge\nThe LASP team continues to operate four satellites for NASA from LASP’s Space Technology Building. They include the Solar Radiation and Climate Experiment, or SORCE mission, a US$100 million satellite designed and built by LASP to study how the Sun’s variation affects Earth’s climate.\nA second satellite, the Aeronomy of Ice in the Mesosphere mission, or AIM, is looking at polar clouds that may be related to increases in carbon dioxide and methane in Earth’s atmosphere.\nThe LASP control team also operates the US$600 million Kepler satellite, a NASA spacecraft that has identified more than 700 potential planets orbiting other stars since its launch in 2009, as well as the QuikSCAT satellite that measures global wind speeds and directions on Earth, helping to improve weather forecasting and predict tropical cyclones.\nLASP is one of a handful of institutes in the world that provide undergraduates the training and certification needed to operate NASA spacecraft, said Possel. LASP employs 20 undergraduates as LASP satellite operators, where they work for at least three years.\nThe opportunity to assist with the decommissioning of a spacecraft is rare. The last time a NASA satellite re-entered Earth’s atmosphere was in January 2002, when the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer spacecraft was decommissioned.\nAdapted from information issued by University of Colorado at Boulder / Glenn Asakawa / NASA.\nGet SpaceInfo.com.au daily updates by RSS or email!

This explosion was caused when the meteor broke up upon entering our atmosphere. The meteor was perhaps just big enough not to disintegrate, but it wasn't sufficiently dense to withstand the compression associated with increasing air resistance.

It plans to put into place a world-class air-pollution measuring mechanism capable of monitoring even the tiniest harmful particle in the air.\nThe Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) will soon commission six new high-tech machines that can measure even the smallest toxic particle floating in the air known as PM 2.5 (particulate matter only 2.5 microns in size — about one-seventh the diameter of human hair).\nKnown as “fine particles”, these can breach the deepest parts of the lungs and be more harmful than any other known particulate matter.\nImported from the US, each machine costs Rs 5 lakhs and will be installed at Nizamuddin and Siri Fort in the South, Janakpuri and Pitampura in the West and Shahdara and Shahajadabagh in the East, within a fortnight.\nThis apart, the CPCB is about to start three new, automated air-pollution monitoring stations to take the total number of such stations in Delhi to seven.\n“We are looking at areas like IIT-Delhi, GTB Hospital, Dwarka and Delhi Milk Scheme at Shadipur, out of which we will select three locations,” he said.\nWill extensive monitoring lead to cleaner air in Delhi? “Comprehensive monitoring is the first step towards pollution control,” says Anumita Roychowdhury, associate director of Centre for Science and Environment. “Data generated through so many monitoring points will be more representative of air quality and help frame stricter policies,” she said. India still does not have legal norms for air pollutants. “Recently we have drafted a norm, which is yet to be notified,” said CPCB director SD Makhijani. And how does it impact the ongoing diesel debate? “Diesel vehicles emit more finer toxic particles, so we will now have a more accurate picture of diesel pollution,” she said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Suspended particulate matter of different sizes represents a major source of environmental pollution. Fine particles, especially ultrafine particles smaller than 2.5 mu m, might be more harmful to human health because of their extremely small size, which enables them to penetrate human lungs and bronchi and makes them difficult to filter out. Therefore, the fatal risks associated with PM call for the development of air purification materials with high efficiency and low resistance. In this study, poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) and polycaprolactone were used to prepare nanofibrous membranes suitable for the efficient capture of particulate matter formed in haze-fog episodes, especially particles smaller than 0.5 mu m. The present nanofibrous membranes exhibit superior filtration efficiency for particulate matter, with a much lower pressure drop compared to typical commercial microfiber air filters. Thanks to the combination of small pore size, high porosity, and robust mechanical properties, the poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/polycaprolactone (6:4) composite membrane exhibits a high filtration efficiency of 97.81% and a low pressure drop of 181 Pa. These favorable features, combined with the easy availability and biocompatibility of the component materials, highlight the promising potential of the present nanofibrous membranes for the development of personal wearable air purifiers.\n许多疾病的发生与空气污染密切相关。不同大小的悬浮颗粒物是环境污染的主要来源。尤其是小于2.5微米的超细颗粒，由于其极小的尺寸，这使它们可以进入人的肺部和支气管并且很难滤出，这些小颗粒可能对身体有害。由于与PM相关的致命风险，我们必须开发具有高效率和低阻力的空气净化材料。在这项研究中，聚乳酸-乙醇酸共聚物和聚己内酯被用于制备纳米纤维膜，该膜适用于有效捕获雾霾事件中形成的颗粒物，尤其是小于0.5微米的颗粒物。与典型的商业超细纤维空气过滤器相比，本次发明的纳米纤维膜对颗粒物过滤更加优异。由于小孔径，高孔隙率和强大的机械性能的结合，聚乳酸-乙醇酸/聚己内酯（6：4）复合膜表现出97.81％的高过滤效率和低的压降 （181 Pa）。这些有利的特征，再加上组成材料的易得性和生物相容性，凸显了本纳米纤维膜在开发个人可穿戴空气净化器方面的潜力。\nJournal ：Journal of Biomedical Nanotechnology","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

However, the space agency has said it will continue to monitor anthropogenic carbon dioxide pollution.\nNASA announced on Tuesday that its GeoCarb mission, which was supposed to monitor carbon dioxide, methane and plant life changes in the Americas, is being terminated due to cost overruns.\nWhen the mission was announced six years ago, it was estimated to cost $166 million, but the latest figures from NASA show that the cost will exceed $600 million.\nUnlike other satellites that track greenhouse gases from low Earth orbit and get a big picture of different parts of the globe, GeoCarb was supposed to be at an altitude of 35,786 kilometers and focus on the Americas. This mission proved to be too complex and costly to be completed on budget and on time.\nThe hardware alone more than doubled in price, and then non-technical problems arose that would have added even more, NASA said. The agency has already spent $170 million on the now canceled program and will not spend more.\nInstead of this project, NASA is considering a new Earth-oriented mission, which should be larger and less risky. Now the space agency is getting methane data from a special instrument on the International Space Station that was designed to study mineral dust but also tracks greenhouse gas as a bonus.\nThere are also methane monitoring satellites launched by the European and Japanese space agencies and some commercial and non-commercial organizations.\nContact us: [email protected]","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Using the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, the National Hurricane Center defines a hurricane as “Major” if sustained winds are over 110 miles per hour, which is considered Category 3 and above on the scale.\nThe severe storm made landfall on Wednesday morning, August 30, 2023 in the Big Bend of Florida’s gulf coast, over Keaton Beach, with maximum sustained winds of 125 miles per hour, just before 8 a.m. ET after having briefly strengthened to Category 4.\nIdalia moved across northern Florida toward Georgia and was downgraded to a tropical storm Wednesday afternoon. It continued up the Atlantic Coast on Wednesday night to South Carolina and North Carolina.\nFerocious winds blew out store windows, tore siding off buildings. Heavy rains partly flooded Interstate 275 in Tampa, and wind toppled power lines onto the northbound side of Interstate 75 just south of Valdosta, Georgia. As a large and powerful hurricane, it is expected that communities in Florida north of Tampa—in Pasco County, Hernando County, and Citrus County—up to areas south of Tallahassee have been impacted with windstorm damage and flooding.\nTHE STORM IS COMING\nWe have seen some massively destructive storms cross the State recently, such as Hurricane Irma (2017), Hurricane Michael (2018), Hurricane Ian (2022), and Hurricane Idalia (2023). It is not unusual for this type of activity. Even going back to the construction of the Key West railroad extension, Henry Flagler’s enterprise suffered terrible set-backs from major hurricanes in 1906, 1909, and 1910. Despite it all, the “Overseas Railroad” or “Eighth Wonder of the World”, as it has been called, linking Miami to Key West, was completed in 1912. The railroad line, as beautiful a voyage as it was vulnerable to the whims of tropical weather systems, was ultimately destroyed in the great Labor Day Hurricane of 1935. You can read more about the Key West to Miami railroad here. https://www.amazon.com/Last-Train-Paradise-Spectacular-Railroad/dp/1400049474\nPERIOD OF CALM\nOn September 1, 2016, Hurricane Hermine, which also made landfall along the Big Bend, was the first hurricane to strike the state of Florida since Hurricane Wilma in 2005. Florida benefited from that relative period of calm for about a decade after the very active 2004 and 2005 hurricane seasons. The state property insurer of last resort, Citizens Property Insurance Corporation, accumulated a $7.5 billion surplus built up by Florida’s unprecedented nine major hurricane-free seasons. It would be reasonable to assume that other insurance companies in Florida profited greatly during that stretch as well, and remain steady in current times of need to fulfill those promises to be there for you to return your damaged property to its pre-loss condition.

The driver called 911 for help after the rushing water picked up his small car while trying to cross the creek, Coast Guard Lt. Mary Arvidson said.\nMore than 7 inches of rainfall was reported over a 24-hour period through early Monday in Corpus Christi and Rio Grande Valley, which is enduring yet another soaking after being lashed by Hurricane Alex and two other tropical systems.\n“Any rain that falls now will go directly into the runoff,” National Weather Service meteorologist Joel Veeneman said. “There’s no way for the ground to absorb anymore.”\nCorpus Christi waded through the worst of the downpour. Even more showers were on the way, expected to continue at least through Wednesday and exacerbate flooding that had already triggered a small number of evacuations. Oso Creek was at least 8 feet above flood stage, and forecasters predicted it could reach record-breaking heights.\nThe missing driver was at least the second distress call for the Coast Guard since rain began pounding the Texas shoreline this weekend. Crews also rescued two boaters Sunday whose 18-foot skiff took on too much water near Port O’Connor.\nNearly a dozen school districts canceled classes Monday as the rain made bus routes on flooded streets impassable, and a flash flood watch was in effect through Monday night for 11 counties off the Texas coast.\nIn Nueces County, residents in the impoverished colonias were stranded by flooding in their slapdash communities that lack drainage and other basic infrastructure, the Corpus Christi Caller-Times reported.\n“They’re on their own,” said Lionel Lopez, an advocate for colonias residents in the county. “I can’t get in. I mean, it’s terrible.”\nKarl made landfall on Mexico’s Gulf Coast on Friday and soaked Veracruz, Puebla and Tabasco states in the south-central part of the country. At least 12 people in the country have been killed.\nVeeneman said the rainfall in Texas wasn’t directly from Karl but that the storm’s moisture helped make for a “perfect combination.”\nEarlier this month, flooding caused by remnants of Tropical Storm Hermine killed at least eight people, including seven in Texas.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The environmental impact thereof is an increase of dustfall and particulate matter concentration in ambient air, increase of human respiratory diseases as well as visibility reduction. The objective of the research is firstly to measure dustfall concentration in ambient air over an area of which the land consisted of mainly Inceptisol soil. The second objective is to measure dustfall concentration in a laboratory scale ambient air. The third objective is to develop a mathematical model to predict dustfall concentration in ambient air as influenced by soil wafer content and wind speed. The field experiment was conducted in an open area in Bogor Municipality where the land consisted mainly of Inceptisol soil. The laboratory experiment was conducted in a, tunnel model where the land surface was covered by Inceptisol soil layer of 3 cm depth. The development of mathematical model was based on those field and laboratory experiments. The materials and instruments used during the field and laboratory experiments were a set of dustfall canister [AS-2011-1], blower [Hercules: 60 cm; 220 V; 170 W], digital anemometer [Lutron AM-4201] , digital moisture tester [OGA TA-5], tunnel [ 7.6 m length; 0.76 m width; 2.4 m height] , analytical balance [OHAUS Aventuror Pro] , Petri dish [=80 mm], filter paper 10µ [Whatmann #41], universal oven [UNB 400] and timer. The result of the experiments showed that average dustfall concentration in ambient air was 8.6 and 11.1 [ton /km2.month] for field and laboratory scale experiment, respectively. The fittest mathematical model to predict dustfall generation [Y] over an area of Inceptisol soil as influenced by wind speed was Y=8.87x2-2.34x+ 5.198 where \"x\" denoted the wind speed over the land. The prediction model as influenced by moisture content was Y=259.1- 11.7x where \"x” represents the soil moisture content. The result of the experiment indicated that dustfall concentration in ambient air was strongly influenced by soil moisture content.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The two are set to move extremely fast, making a wire that drops their jaws across the sky.\nWhat is a Perseid meteor shower?\nPerseids peak each year in mid-August, and thanks to its high-density, rapid meteors and fire movements paired with late summer weather, NASA has written that Perseids meteors – which are composed of debris from Comet Swift-Tuttle ̵1; “are considered the best meteor shower of the year”.\nWhen is the Perseid meteor shower and at what time will it arrive?\nPerseid meteors have been entering Earth’s sky since late July, but they will peak at dawn on Wednesday. Starting Tuesday at 9pm local time and continuing through the night until its peak after midnight, a spread of Perseids will be visible to the naked eye. For the grand shower finale, NASA recommends curious lands to search from 2 a.m. and dawn, whenever it may be where you are.\nUnfortunately, this year’s shower will be somewhat hampered by the fact that the Moon is currently in its final phase of the quarter. Its brightness will reduce the number of visible meteors to 15 to 20 per hour, despite the fact that more than 60 will shoot from. Only the brightest fireballs and meteors will emerge in the strong glow of the Moon.\nWhere and how can I see it?\nThe shower will take place all over the sky and can be seen all over the world. NASA actually recommends that you do not use telescopes or binoculars to test Perseids, as they limit the field of view.\nInstead, the space agency says the best way to see intergalactic light show up is to hope the night will not be cloudy, find a place away from bright lights, lie on your back, keep your eyes peeled fit in the dark for about 30 minutes (this includes doing your best not to use your phone or other turned on technology) and search.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Some mistook it for a meteor, but it was the re-entry and disintegration of a Chinese rocket body, specifically stage 3 of the CZ-4B rocket that launched the Yaogan Weixing 26 satellite in December, 2014. Coincidentally, a geomagnetic storm was in progress at the time, and lucky photographers caught the rocket’s debris cutting across curtains of northern lights.\nThe American Meteor Society reported:\n… over 145 reports from western states last night (February, 23th 2015) about a slow moving grouping of fireballs traveling from the south east to the north west.

Forecasters predicted more rain and snow Friday.\nMeanwhile, fed by a warm, wet flow of tropical air, the storm continued to send heavy rain into California as well, creating flooding and the threat of mudslides in the Sierra foothills. The storm also presented flood and slide threats to fire-damaged hillsides in Southern California.\nSmall stream flood advisories were posted in the eastern foothills of Mariposa, Madera, Fresno and Tulare counties where more than 4 inches of rain fell in some areas overnight. There was minor flooding on streams in the foothills and Yosemite National Park.\nFlash flood warnings also were posted for a time in areas of Orange, San Bernardino and San Diego counties damaged by wildfires earlier this year.\nHeavy snow was falling in many areas above the 6,000-foot elevation in the Sierra Nevada. Chains or snow tires were required on Interstate 80 between Kingvale and Donner Lake, over Echo Summit on U.S. 50 and on U.S. 395 south of Bridgeport. In the Siskiyous, a high wind warning was posted along Interstate 5 from Weed to Yreka.\nForecasters warned that heavy rainfall in the Sierra foothills below the 6,000-foot level over the next two days could lead to mudslides because of this summer's wildfires. Two to three inches of rainfall was expected over the weekend.\nIn Washington and Oregon, the latest storm-related death occurred when a utility repairman touched a downed power line.\nNearly two-thirds of the 100,000 Washington and Idaho customers who lost power when the storm snapped trees and power lines Tuesday had electricity by Friday, officials said.\nSeveral people were treated for carbon-monoxide poisoning after trying to keep warm by improvising heating systems using charcoal. At least 12 weather-related fires were reported in Spokane, mostly involving overheated chimneys.\nIn southern Oregon, huge concrete blocks were going to be dropped Friday into a 40-foot deep, 100-foot-long chasm that appeared Thursday on a rain-weakened section of I-5.\nWhen the hole opened, momentum carried one truck over the opening, but another plunged into it. Both drivers walked away from their mangled trucks with minor injuries.\nTruck driver Albert Wilkinson, 57, of Gresham, recalled going around a dark curve when the roadway collapsed beneath him.\n\"There was just a big bang, and then the whole tractor was just disintegrating,\" he said from his bed in Mercy Medical Center, where he was treated for a puncture in his leg and a bump on the head. \"I couldn't get my seat belt undone, my leg was pinned in there.\n\"I looked back and there was a huge gaping hole and three trailers down in it.\"\nHundreds of truckloads of material will be needed to fill the hole and it may take more than a week to fully reopen the road, officials said.\nNearly 600 people sought refuge in Spokane-area Red Cross shelters and most schools remained closed for a fourth day Friday.\nModest rainfall in Bay Area\nIn the Bay Area, rainfall totals for the 24 hours ending at 4 a.m. were modest. Some brief but intense showers were adding to the totals just before dawn, particularly in the North Bay.\nSan Rafael had only 0.16 inches for the 24-hour period, but another almost-quarter inch fell between 4 and 5 a.m. Other 24-hour totals included 0.15 inches in Alameda and 0.08 inches in San Francisco and Redwood City.\nRain was much heavier in the coastal mountains, with more than an inch recorded at Big Sur and at several other spots.\nOn Thursday afternoon, gusty winds and heavy rains delayed flights up to two hours at San Francisco International Airport. Rain and lightning delayed the start of the Pebble Beach Pro-Am golf tournament for more than an hour.\nDiminishing showers and occasional thunderstorms were forecast for later in the day Friday. Some rain was expected to return to the area by Sunday afternoon.<","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Philippines is visible in the lower left corner.\nCredit: NASA/Goddard/MODIS Rapid Response Team\nOn Sept. 20 at 01:50 UTC, as the depression was strengthening into a tropical storm, the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) instrument on NASA's Terra satellite captured a true-color image of the storm. The MODIS image showed a rounded shape, which indicates good circulation. There was also a band of thunderstorms east of the center of circulation.\nOn Sept. 21, Tropical Storm Jelawat had maximum sustained winds near 45 knots (51.7 mph/83.3 kph). Jelawat was located about 535 nautical miles east-southeast of Manila, Philippines, near 12.4 north latitude and 129.7 east longitude. It was moving to the west-southwest at 7 knots (8 mph/13 kph).\nForecasters used infrared satellite imagery, such as that from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder instrument that flies aboard NASA's Aqua satellite to determine the initial position of the tropical storm. Infrared data from Sept. 21, 2012, showed that the strongest convection and coldest cloud top temperatures were in the northwestern and southeastern quadrants of the tropical storm. Those areas were experiencing the heaviest rainfall.\nBy 10 p.m. local time in Manila, Philippines (10 a.m. Eastern Time/U.S.) on Sept. 21, Jelawat's center was about 311 miles (500 km) east of Catarman capital of Northern Samar, near 12.4 north latitude and 129.7 east longitude. Northern Samar is a Philippine province in the Eastern Visayas region.\nThe Philippine Atmospheric Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration issued a bulletin about Jelawat (known locally as Lawin) on Sept. 21 that noted \"Estimated rainfall amount is from 10 to 25 mm (0.4 to 0.9 inches) per hour within the 600 km (373 miles) diameter of the Tropical Storm. Fishing boats and other small seacrafts are advised not to venture out into the eastern seaboard of Southern Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao due to big waves generated by Tropical Storm (Jelawat) Lawin.\"\nJelawat is expected to track slowly west-northwestward over the weekend of Sept. 22 and 23 while the storm intensifies.

Report on Batu Tara (Indonesia) (Wunderman, R., ed.). Bulletin of the Global Volcanism Network, 32:12. Smithsonian Institution. https://doi.org/10.5479/si.GVP.BGVN200712-264260\n7.791°S, 123.585°E; summit elev. 633 m\nAll times are local (unless otherwise noted)\nOn 1 July 2006 a pilot reported an ash cloud from Batu Tara drifting NW at 1.5 km altitude, but the Darwin VAAC could not identify ash in MTSAT satellite imagery around the same time. No other evidence or reports could confirm a renewal of activity at this small uninhabited island volcano, which last erupted during 1847-1852. Starting in January 2007, there were satellite thermal anomalies suggesting an eruption. Two months later observers issued reports of ash plumes from explosive activity.\nMODIS infrared satellite data, compiled and analyzed by the Hawai'i Institute of Geophysics and Planetology (HIGP) Thermal Alerts System, first showed anomalies at Batu Tara on 17 January 2007. For almost a year thermal signatures typically were detected every 1-3 days, sometimes every 4-5 days, with rare gaps of 6-7 days. After no anomalies during 9-17 January 2008, regular hotspots returned and were continuing at the end of the month.\nThe Darwin VAAC reported that an ash cloud seen in MTSAT and Terra MODIS imagery at 1633 on 13 March 2007 reached an altitude of 4.3 km and drifted N. By 0833 on 14 March the plume was seen extending about 90 km NE, after which it dissipated. Later that day the low-level plume was 55 km long towards the ENE.\nA continuous low-level plume, at or below summit level, was observed on imagery on 15 March extending SE from the summit to a distance of 65 km. The plume later shifted around towards the E, to a distance of ~ 37 km, on 16 March. Imagery on 17 March showed another direction change, to the NE, extending a maximum of 74 km. Government officials, residents, and fishermen on Lembata Island (formerly known as Lomblen), ~ 50 km S, observed plumes rising from Batu Tara during 17-19 March, but there was no night glow. The plumes on 19 March were reportedly 500-1,500 m high and blowing E. Although meteorological clouds interfered with satellite observations, the Centre of Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (CVGHM) reported continuous eruptions with ash to 500 m above the summit on 20 March. A continuous thin plume was also seen on satellite imagery extending 37 km NE on 20 March. Similar activity continued through 21-22 March, with low-level plumes identified in imagery out to distances of 46-56 km towards the E and SE.\nHigh waves on 22 March prevented a science team from landing on the island, where CVGHM had hoped to install instruments that could be monitored from the observation post at Lewotolo volcano, ~ 52 km SSW. Observations on 22 March described ash plumes from the summit crater rising as high as 2 km and ashfall killing trees within a 500-m radius of the summit on the southern and eastern slopes. White emissions with intermittent dense gray plumes also originated from a location on the E foot of the mountain, with the clouds rising up to 250 m. A small cone grew there with a crater diameter of ~ 10 m. From a vantage point on Lembata, other observers reported minor ashfall, smelled sulfur odors, heard explosion noises, and saw incandescent blocks ejected to heights of ~ 500 m that landed in the sea.\nMeteorological clouds continued to intermittently obscure satellite observations during 23-30 March, but available clear imagery and CVGHM reports indicated continuing plumes at low altitudes extending as far as 90 km downwind (figures 1 and 2). Infrared anomalies also continued to be recorded during this time. On the morning of 31 March a plume was seen extending about 150 km NNW.\nCVGHM reported observations from 30 March that indicated the E side of the volcano had been most impacted by recent activity. Plant life on the E side was affected by hot ashfall. White plumes rose from the summit to an altitude of ~ 1.7 km and drifted E. Incandescent rockslides and cooled lava flows were observed at the E foot of the volcano. Steam and occasional ash plumes rose from the area where hot material interacted with the sea.\nSemi-continuous eruptions through 3 April produced low-level plumes, generally to altitudes of 1.5-3 km, reported by ground observers and seen in satellite imagery to distance of 37-56 km downwind in various directions. On 5 April, plumes rose to 3 km altitude. Based on satellite imagery the CVGHM reported that on 5 April a lava flow on the E slope created a central levee with debris fans on either side. The delta-like shape spanned about 450 m across. A lava flow also extended 100 m into the water. Diffuse plumes seen in satellite imagery rose to altitudes of 1.5 km and drifted W and NW during 4-11 April. Explosive activity producing noticeable ash plumes generally declined in April, and on the 12th the hazard status was lowered to Alert Level 2. However, hotspots continued to be recorded on an almost daily basis.\nA pilot reported a low-level ash plume extending 90 km W on 27 April, but ash could not be identified in satellite data. Based on satellite imagery and CVGHM, the Darwin VAAC issued reports of diffuse low ash plumes drifting W during 5 and 10-12 May. On 19 June an ash plume rose to an altitude of 1.7 km. Clouds inhibited visual observations on the other days during 18-25 June. However, on 19 June, a dense white plume rising to 1,000 m high was observed. Between 28 June and 1 July, diffuse white plume was observed rising to 50-150 m. An ash column reached 750 m above the summit.\nBased on observations of satellite imagery, the Darwin VAAC reported that on 18 September, diffuse ash plumes rose to an altitude of 2.4 km and drifted W for 140 km. CVGHM lowered the Alert Level to 1 on 9 October. During 3 September-9 October, plumes rose to an altitude of approximately 1.4 km, 700 m above the summit. Satellite imagery showed an ash plume on 13 October that rose to an altitude of 3 km and drifted N and W. Despite time gaps when plumes were not seen and the decreased frequency of explosion plumes, MODIS data recorded thermal anomalies at least every few days throughout April-October 2007, and continuing into February 2008.\nGeological Summary. The small isolated island of Batu Tara in the Flores Sea about 50 km N of Lembata (fomerly Lomblen) Island contains a scarp on the eastern side similar to the Sciara del Fuoco of Italy's Stromboli volcano. Vegetation covers the flanks to within 50 m of the summit. Batu Tara lies north of the main volcanic arc and is noted for its potassic leucite-bearing basanitic and tephritic rocks. The first historical eruption, during 1847-52, produced explosions and a lava flow.\nInformation Contacts: Center of Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation (CVGHM), Diponegoro 57, Bandung, Jawa Barat 40122, Indonesia (URL: http://vsi.esdm.go.id/); Darwin Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre (VAAC), Bureau of Meteorology, Northern Territory Regional Office, PO Box 40050, Casuarina, Northern Territory 0811, Australia (URL: http://www.bom.gov.au/info/vaac/); Michael Thirnbeck, Jakarta, Indonesia (URL: http://www.flickr.com/photos/thirnbeck/); Hawai'i Institute of Geophysics and Planetology (HIGP) Thermal Alerts System, School of Ocean and Earth Science and Technology (SOEST), Univ. of Hawai'i, 2525 Correa Road, Honolulu, HI 96822, USA (URL: http://modis.higp.hawaii.edu/).","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

NASA Goddard Space Flight / Flickr / CC BY 2.0 Planet Earth Weather Outdoors Conservation Every day, solar storms, including solar flares, sunspots, and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), erupt from the Sun out into space. If these disturbances travel the 94-million-mile distance to Earth, their charged particles can forcibly enter our upper atmosphere, causing a smorgasbord of dangers (damaged power grids, communications blackouts, and radiation exposure) and delights (auroral displays). Here are some of the most severe solar storms known to humankind, both before the Space Age (1957) and after it. 1 of 10 The 1859 Carrington Event Named for Richard Carrington, one of the two astronomers who observed and documented this Aug. 28 - Sept. 2, 1859 solar flare event, the Carrington event is one of the largest space weather events on record. The \"superflare\" was associated with two coronal mass ejections (CMEs), the second of which was so severe it triggered a geomagnetic storm that instantly disintegrated 5% of Earth's ozone layer and supercharged the electric currents flowing through the world's telegraph wires, reportedly causing them to spark. Red auroras could also be seen at latitudes as far south as Cuba. Through reanalysis, scientists estimate its solar flare classification to be between X40 and X50. (The X-class is reserved for the most powerful solar storms.) According to NASA heliophysicist Dr. Alex Young, the event's energy could have powered today's global energy needs for hundreds of thousands of years. 2 of 10 The Auroral Storm of 1582 Red auroral displays are signs of particularly powerful solar storms. Richard Hamilton Smith / Getty Images While analyzing records of ancient auroral events in East Asia, scientists have recently discovered that a severe storm occurred in March 1582. Observers as far equatorward as 28.8 degrees latitude recorded accounts of a great fire in the northern sky. Today's scientists believe this red aurora may have been caused by a series of CMEs whose Dst values measured in the -580 to -590 nT range. Since few advanced technologies existed back in the 16th century, few to no disruptions would have occurred. 3 of 10 The Great Geomagnetic Storm of May 1921 Between May 13-16, a series of CMEs bombarded Earth's magnetosphere, the strongest of which reached X-class intensity. The New York Times reported that the so-called \"sunspot\" caused lights on Broadway to dim, and temporarily put the New York Central Railroad out of operation. 4 of 10 May 1967 'Cold War' Solar Flare On May 23, 1967, during what was the height of the Cold War, a solar storm very nearly changed the course of American history. According to a recent paper in the journal Space Weather, the U.S. government almost ordered an airstrike on the Soviets, whom they believed had jammed U.S. radar and radio communications. Thankfully, disaster was averted when the Air Force's space weather forecasters (who had only been monitoring space weather since the late-1950s) alerted NORAD in real-time to the solar storm event and its disruptive potential. 5 of 10 August 1972 Solar Flare Toward the end of the space race, an extreme, X20 solar flare affected the space regions near Earth and the Moon. The flare's ultra-fast storm cloud reached Earth in 14.6 hours flat—the fastest transit time ever recorded. (Ordinarily, the solar wind reaches Earth in two or three days.) Once in Earth's atmosphere, the solar particles interrupted TV signals and even detonated U.S. Navy mines during the Vietnam War. Although the storm occurred between NASA's Apollo 16 and 17 missions, if a lunar mission had been taking place, its astronauts would have been blasted with a near-fatal dose of radiation. 6 of 10 March 1989 Geomagnetic Storm On March 10, 1989, a powerful CME erupted on the Sun. By March 13, its resultant geomagnetic storm struck Earth. The event was so intense, the aurora borealis could be seen as far south as Texas and Florida. It also created electric currents underground across much of North America. In Quebec, Canada, six million residents lost power when the solar storm caused a nine-hour blackout of the country's Hydro-Québec power grid. 7 of 10 April 2001 Solar Flare & CME April 2001 large solar flare.. NASA / Wikimedia Commons / Public Domain On April 2, 2001, a massive solar flare explosion near the Sun's northwest region hurled a 7.2 million km per hour coronal mass ejection into space. At that time, it was the biggest X-ray solar flare on record, ranking as an X20 or slightly higher on NASA's solar eruptions scale. The fact that the flare wasn't Earth-directed was a saving grace. 8 of 10 2003 Halloween Solar Storms View of a Halloween 2003 solar flare and coronal mass ejection (CME). NASA/Stringer / Getty Images On Oct. 28, 2003, the Sun opted to trick (rather than treat) us Terrans by brewing up a solar flare so frightening, it overloaded the sensors measuring it. Before cutting out, these sensors recorded the event as a class X28. However, during later reanalysis, the flare was estimated to have been a X45—one of the most powerful flares on record next to the Carrington event. 9 of 10 The Solar Superstorm of July 2012 Solar storms are constantly occurring, but only those directed at Earth impact our planet; the others simply pass us by. This was the case when a powerful CME, thought to be a Carrington-class storm, crossed Earth's orbital path on July 23, 2012. Scientists estimate that if the eruption had occurred just one week earlier, Earth would have indeed been in the line of fire. (Instead, the storm struck NASA's Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory satellite.) According to NASA, had the solar superstorm hit us, it could have caused over $2 trillion dollars worth of damage—or 20 times that wreaked by Hurricane Katrina. 10 of 10 September 2017 Solar Storm View of a September 2017 X-class solar flare. NASA/GSFC/SDO / Flickr / CC By 2.0 On Sept. 6, 2017, a large X9.3 X-class solar flare erupted on the Sun, becoming the strongest flare of solar cycle 24 (2008-2019). Its geomagnetic storm triggered a category R3 (strong) radio blackout, and NOAA later reported that high-frequency radio used by aviation, maritime, ham radio, and other emergency bands was unavailable for up to eight hours that day—the same day that a Category 5 Hurricane Irma was passing through the Caribbean.

Today, as those of you in range of the billion or so inches of expected snow are huddled in your bed (or bitterly headed into work because the storm did not strike fast enough), let us take a moment to reflect on all the other crazy snowstorms America has endured. Here's something that my throw you for a loop: Most of them occurred long before the existence of Netflix.\nNobody is entirely certain just how terrible Juno is going to be (even the goddess she is named after is described as a mystery because scholars still can't quite agree on what she stands for), so there's no way to know whether or not Juno is about to join the ranks of terrible American storms until it happens. But reading up on this country's past snowpocalypses past seems like a good enough way to prepare yourself for anything the next few days can throw at you, so here it is folks, a list of the worst winter storms the US has ever seen, from the oldest to the most recent:\nThe Children's Blizzard of 1888\nThis blizzard wasn't so devastating itself, except for several factors that made an otherwise endurable snowstorm deadly. It dropped about six inches of snow in areas of Colorado, Nebraska, Minnesota, and Montana on January 11th, on what was an otherwise balmy day. When the snow began falling, teachers in one-room schoolhouses sent children home early, not knowing that the temperature would sharply plummet from slightly above freezing to -20 degrees Fahrenheit. Thousands of people who went out to enjoy the nice day were trapped outside when the blizzard hit seemingly out of nowhere, resulting in a death toll of 235. Pictured above is a surface analysis of the blizzard.\nThe Great Blizzard of 1888\nThis blizzard was so far-reaching on the East Coast that it hit areas from Washington, D.C. to Maine, starting on March 11 on 1888. Gusts hit 85 miles per hour, and in some areas of New York City, snowdrifts came all the way up to second story windows. All of the above ground water and gas lines froze, and 15,000 commuters got stuck on elevated platforms, at one point only being rescued by people with ladders who charged them a small fee because apparently humans were also capable of sucking in the 19th century, too. 200 people died in New York alone, and hundreds of boats sunk due to heavy winds in the Atlantic. Pictured above is Brooklyn in aftermath of the storm.\nThe Great Blizzard of 1899\nApparently before we gave blizzards actual names we just called them \"The Great,\" so let's hope Juno isn't too bitter about that. This particular storm actually started in Florida on February 11, 1899 before working its way up North, dropping as much as three feet of snow on Northeastern states. The cold wave that came just before it were some of the coldest temperatures southern states had ever seen, hitting as low as 29 degrees in Miami. Pictured above are people having a snowball fight on the steps of the Florida capitol.\nNobody can quite agree on a name for this ginormous blizzard, which has also gone by the \"Big Blow,\" \"Freshwater Fury,\" and the \"Great Lakes Storm of 1913\". The blizzard had hurricane-like winds and struck on November 7th, striking the area brutally with the convergence of two storm fronts and quickly becoming the worst natural disaster the area had ever seen. Over 250 people died in the storm, and ships were overturned in four out of five of the Great Lakes. Pictured above is a man watching a wave break on Lake Michigan from the safety of a bridge.\nThe Knickerbocker Storm\nThis storm gets its name from the infamous tragedy that occurred post-snowfall. The storm, which hit the middle and upper Atlantic states on January 27, 1922, caused a record snowfall of 28 inches in Washington, D.C. The next day, patrons enjoying intermission while watching a show in the Knickerbocker Theater when the roof collapsed under the heavy weight of the accumulated snow, killing 98 people and injuring 133. The two architects of the building later committed suicide. Above is a picture post-collapse.\nArmistice Day Blizzard\nThis blizzard began in the Midwest region of the US on November 12, 1940. Like the Children's Storm in 1888, the day began as a warm one, and since most people had the day off, a lot of them were outside enjoying the weather when the low pressure system descended and the few flurries that were predicted turned out to be 28 inches of snowfall. Snowdrifts were as high as 20 feet in some areas due to heavy windfall, and 154 people died, as well as many farm animals in the region. Pictured above is the surface analysis of the storm.\nThe Great Appalachian Storm of 1950\nOn November 23, 1950, this extratropical snowstorm impacted over 22 states, and caused a snowfall of over 57 inches to the Appalachians. The gusts peaked in Concord, New Hampshire at up to 160 miles per hour, and at the time, it was the costliest storm the US had ever seen, with $66.7 million worth of damages (not adjusting for inflation). Between the winds and the devastating cold front, the storm killed 353 people and injured 160 more. Pictured above is surface analysis of the storm.\nThe Super Bowl Blizzard\nIn January 8, 1975, just days before the Vikings and the Steelers faced off in the Super Bowl, this storm unexpectedly originated in the Pacific Ocean before heading to the upper Midwest and sparking up to 45 tornadoes along the way. The pressure dropped to all-time lows due to the convergence of a heat and cold front, causing the deaths of 58 people and injury of 377. Pictured above is the mobile home damage in St. Claire County, Louisiana.\nThe Storm Of The Century, 1993\nI'm going to go ahead and caution anyone from calling anything the \"[Blank] of the Century\" before the century is over, because that seems like tempting fate, particularly in the case of this giant winter storm—it doubled as a hurricane! It caused huge snowfall totals from Alabama to Maine, as well as a massive amount of coastal flooding in Florida. 40% of the population of the United States was affected by the storm, with 10 million people losing power and over 100 lives lost. Pictured above is the satellite imagery of the super storm.\nThe February 2010 succession of two blizzards got its official name once Obama used the term \"Snowmageddon\" at a press conference, referring to the storm that blustered through the Atlantic region and caused a record snowfall in every one of the mid-Atlantic states. By the time both storms hit, 68% of the country was covered in snowfall. The storm caused 14 US casualties. Pictured above is the snow accumulation in Dupont Circle of Washington, D.C., where people made headlines for cross-country skiing through the streets.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The fourth named storm and third hurricane of the season, Danny developed from a tropical wave in the northwestern Caribbean Sea on August 12. The system moved northwestward and initially remained weak. Early on August 13, it brushed Cape San Antonio, Cuba before emerging the Gulf of Mexico later that day. The system then intensified into Tropical Storm Danny on August 14. Danny deepened further and became a hurricane early on the following day, while beginning to re-curve north-northwestward. Late on August 16, Danny attained its peak intensity with winds of 90 mph (150 km/h). Shortly thereafter, the storm made landfall near Grand Chenier, Louisiana at the same intensity. Early on August 17, Danny weakened to a tropical storm and was downgraded to a tropical depression several hours later. It moved east-northeastward across the Southeastern United States, until dissipating over southeastern Virginia on August 18.\nThere was widespread coastal and inland flooding in Louisiana. The storm brought up to 8.91 inches (226 mm) of precipitation to Kentwood. Additionally, there were two tornadoes reported in the state. Overall, 33 single-family homes and 26 mobile homes were destroyed, while three condos, 908 single-family houses and 265 mobile homes were damaged. A combination of rainfall and storm surge in southern Mississippi caused severe beach erosion and flooded 70 homes in Hancock County alone. Further north, a tornado in Enterprise severely damaged six homes, three barns, and two roofs; it also destroyed one house. In Alabama, the storm spawned 34 tornadoes, which destroyed 27 single-family residences and 18 mobile homes. About 90 homes, eight mobile homes, and 23 businesses suffered damage. Impact was similar but less severe in several other states, including Georgia, Maryland, South Carolina, Texas, and Virginia. Danny caused five fatalities and about $100 million in damage (1985 USD).\nA tropical wave emerged into the Atlantic Ocean from the west coast of Africa on July 30. The system moved westward across the Atlantic Ocean without much convection, or thunderstorms. On August 8, the wave crossed the crossing the Windward Islands and entered the Caribbean Sea, whereupon convection increased. A broad low-pressure area was evident on August 10 in the central Caribbean Sea. Two days later, a United States Air Force reconnaissance aircraft observed a poorly-defined circulation near the Cayman Islands with enough organization to be designated Tropical Depression Four. The nascent depression moved northwestward without further organization, crossing over western Cuba near Cape San Antonio early on August 13. After crossing Cuba into the Gulf of Mexico, the depression organized more and intensified into Tropical Storm Danny early on August 14.\nIntensifying over the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico, Danny attained hurricane status around 00:00 UTC on August 15, only 24 hours after being upgraded to a tropical storm. Danny continued to strengthen as it approached the southern United States, maintaining a northwest trajectory. The Hurricane Hunters flew into the hurricane on August 15, observing peak winds of 90 mph (150 km/h) and a minimum barometric pressure of 987 millibars (29.15 InHg). At 16:30 UTC that day, Danny turned to the north and made landfall near Lake Charles, Louisiana. While moving through the state, the hurricane's winds dropped below gale-force within 24 hours. Danny remained a distinct tropical entity as it progressed into the Tennessee Valley on August 17, its circulation drawing in drier air from the northwest. To its north, a weakening weather front was moving to the northwest ahead of a large approaching trough. These weather conditions caused a tornado outbreak, due to the atmospheric instability and high convective available potential energy. On August 19, the circulation associated with former Hurricane Danny merged with the approaching trough, thereby becoming an extratropical cyclone. The remnants of Danny continued to the east-northeast, emerging into the western Atlantic Ocean near the Eastern Shore of Virginia, and were tracked until August 20 to the southeast of Nantucket.\nPrior to the arrival of Danny, a gale warning and a hurricane watch was issued from the upper-Texas coast to Mobile on August 13. The next day, the gale watch was extended westward. Later that day, the watch was replaced with a hurricane warning, however, the warning area did not include New Orleans. In preparations for this storm, most of the off-shore oil companies evacuated their workers, with Amoco Corporation evacuating 900 people and Exxon-Mobil evacuated nearly 1000 people. About 5,700 people in Louisiana were housed in shelters.\nOverall, Danny killed five people and left $50 to $100 million (1985 USD) in damage along with 73 injuries. Danny also produced an unusually intense outbreak of tornadoes, with a total of 39 touchdowns occurring over seven states. Two tornadoes were reported in Louisiana, 2 in Mississippi, 34 in Alabama, three in Tennessee, four in Georgia, one in South Carolina, and three in North Carolina. Danny's outbreak contained a then-record 13 significant tornadoes spawned by a hurricane; however, since then, Hurricane Ivan surpassed this, producing 18 significant tornadoes. Moderate to heavy rainfall fell to the east of the track while Danny remained tropical. As it was transitioning into a frontal wave across the Eastern United States, heavy rainfall became focused to the left of its track, overrunning the frontal surface ahead of the storm.\nThe primary effect from Danny in Louisiana was coastal and inland flooding. The storm dropped heavy rainfall, peaking at 8.91 inches (226 mm) in Kentwood. Along the coast, storm surge inundated barrier islands, damaged coastal marshes, and caused erosion. Two tornadoes were spawned by the storm in Louisiana. Overall, the American Red Cross reported that 33 single-family homes and 26 mobile homes were destroyed, with 454 single-family houses and 175 mobile homes receiving extensive impact. Minor damage was reported at three condos, 90 mobile homes, and 454 single-family homes. Additionally, about 38,000 acres of crops were damaged. Sixty-six people were injured by the storm, though no deaths were reported. Initial property estimations revealed $17 to $23 million in damage, with roughly half of this coming from agricultural damage. The American Insurance Association estimated $25.1 million in insured losses, with the damage toll about two to three times greater than this.\nIn St. Tammany Parish, 5.5 inches (140 mm) of rain fell in Slidell, flooding streets and dozens of homes. Additionally, strong winds toppled trees, which fell on houses, mobile homes, and cars. Along the coast, storm tides destroyed a $5,000 pier, while low-lying roads in Madisonville and Mandeville were closed due to inundation. Another tornado was spawned in St. Bernard Parish north of Reggio. Coastal flooding along Highway 46 near Hopedale left the road impassable. In Plaquemines Parish, 3 to 4 ft (0.91 to 1.22 m) of storm tides flooded areas along the Mississippi River and outside of the levee system from Empire southward. In Jefferson Parish, a small tornado on Grand Isle de-roofed two buildings, resulting in about $25,000 in damage. At Grand Isle State Park, storm surge destroyed a 100 ft (30 m) section of the pier and 60–100 ft (18–30 m) of the shoreline was eroded, with about 7.8 million cu ft (220,871 m3) of sand washed away from the hurricane protection levee. Overall, at least $320,000 in damage was reported at the state park. Storm surge also damaged several homes and fishing camps in the cities of Galliano, Golden Meadow, Leeville, and Port Fourchon in Lafourche Parish. At Port Fourchon, about 75 ft (23 m) of beach was eroded. Winds downed trees in Lockport, Raceland, and Thibodaux. A 41 ft (12 m) sailboat offshore Terrebonne Parish sank due to rough seas and gales. A Coast Guard helicopter had to evacuate 7 Texans who were on a yacht in the Gulf of Mexico forty miles offshore, since their radio was broken and they were therefore unaware they were sailing into the storm. After being rescued, they were treated for minor injuries at a suburban New Orleans hospital. Inland, the communities of Cocodrie, Montegut, Isle de Jean Charles, and Pointe-aux-Chenes were hardest hit.\nIn St. Mary Parish, storm surge caused about $500,000 in damage at Cypremort Point State Park. In Iberia Parish, storm surge heights ranging from 5 to 6 ft (1.5 to 1.8 m) inundated barrier islands and coastal marshes, resulting in about $2 million in damage to houses, businesses, and fishing camps. In Vermilion Parish, storm surge inundated areas of Henry and Intracoastal City with up to 3 ft (0.91 m) of water. In the latter, 30 businesses were flooded and a kerosene tank was damaged. Strong winds were also observed in the parish, with gusts up to 114 miles per hour (183 km/h) recorded in Abbeville. The roof of a school in the city was blown off, resulting in about $60,000 in damage. Wind also de-roofed houses and destroyed mobile homes in the cities of Gueydan and Kaplan, while numerous trees were uprooted. Throughout the parish, 23 homes were damaged and seven mobile homes were inflicted with impact or destroyed. In Cameron Parish, a tornado spawned near Hackberry damaged two trailers. A shrimp boat in the Calcasieu River near Cameron was swamped due to strong winds. Moderate storm surge damage was reported in some areas near the mouth of the Mermentau River, in the Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge, and the community of Chenier Au Tigre.\nStrong winds in Calcasieu Parish destroyed an airplane hangar in Iowa and uprooted trees. Falling trees crushed cars in Lake Charles and Sulphur. In Jefferson Davis Parish, wind inflicted $3,000 in damage to a warehouse in Jennings. In Acadia Parish, falling trees blocked streets in Crowley, while the roof of a school in Rayne was damaged. Winds also destroyed a barn and overturned a mobile home in Church Point. Strong winds in Allen Parish caused large oaks trees fall on a home and a trailer in Kinder, Louisiana. In Evangeline Parish, several buildings and trees were damaged in the cities of Mamou and Ville Platte. Strong winds in St. Martin Parish also felled trees, which struck a church and homes in Breaux Bridge and St. Martinville. Numerous trees were uprooted in Opelousas, located in St. Landry Parish; one of which fell on a home. Many trees and a business suffered roof damage due to strong winds in Rapides Parish. Additionally, 3 to 4 inches (76 to 102 mm) of rain flooded some streets.\nThe storm spawned a total of 34 tornadoes in Alabama. One of the first twisters was spawned in Parrish, a small town in Walker County. While crossing through the city, it severely damaged or destroyed 15 commercial buildings, 12 homes, and one mobile home. A number of cars were also flipped over. There was one death – an elderly woman who was in her mobile home – and at least one injury. After this tornado, state troopers were dispatched to guard against looting. The next tornado was also spawned in Walker County in the county seat of Jasper. The tornado moved northward just east of downtown and caused extensive damage to an auto parts store and two mobile home sales parks along Route 78. Several vehicles and other homes nearby were damaged, nine of which were left uninhabitable.\nOverall, twenty-seven single family residences and 18 mobile homes were destroyed. Forty-six houses and six mobile homes suffering from major damage. Minimal damage was reported in 44 homes, two mobile homes, and 23 businesses. There were two fatalities and 14 injuries in Alabama and $5 million in damage, mostly from tornadoes. Following the storm, then-Governor of Alabama George Wallace declared three counties in the state as a disaster area.\nMinimal impact from Danny was reported in Texas. The strongest wind speed observed in the state was 39 mph (63 km/h) at Beaumont. Tides of 2 to 3 ft (0.61 to 0.91 m) above normal caused only minor beach erosion, though State Highway 87 was temporarily closed between Sabine Pass and High Island due to sand and debris washed onto the road. Light rainfall was reported in the state, peaking at 1.85 inches (47 mm) in Bon Weir, which is located in extreme eastern Newton County. One indirect death occurred when a man was electrocuted while moving a sailboat near Galveston.\nIn Mississippi, an F2 tornado spawned by Danny touched down near Hickory at 1230 UTC. Although it mainly moved through forested areas, the tornado severely damaged 6 homes, 3 barns, and 2 roofs; it also destroyed 1 house. Another tornado touched down at Enterprise in Clarke County. Damage was done almost entirely to trees and power lines. Flooding was reported along the south coast of the state, due to rainfall amounts reaching 5 inches (130 mm), high tides, and waves about 2 ft (0.61 m) above normal. Although flooding as mostly limited to streets and low-lying areas, about 70 homes in Hancock County experienced water intrusion. Beach erosion was significant, with roughly 250,000 cu yd (190,000 m3) of sand lost. The cost to replace the sand was estimated at between $3 and 5 million. Wind gusts between 30 and 50 mph (50 and 80 km/h) down power lines, resulting in numerous electrical outages across the state.\nThe storm spawned 4 tornadoes in Georgia. A tornado touched down near Jefferson in Jackson County. Along its 10 miles (16 km) path, the tornado destroyed two chicken houses and killed several thousand chickens. Additionally, two houses experienced severe damage and a number of others received minor impact. The tornado ended after impacting the Jackson County Airport, where it destroyed 13 aircraft and severely damaged and unroofed a hangar. Another tornado was spawned in Oconee County at the town of Bogart. One mobile home and a house were destroyed and several others suffered various degrees of damage; a number of trees were also downed along its path. Other than tornadoes, impact in Georgia was minimal, with up to 3 inches (76 mm) of rainfall in the northeastern corner of the state.\nA F3 tornado spawned by Danny, struck Waco and was 500 yards wide making the tornado the largest hurricane spawned tornado at that time. Thirty-six injuries were also reported by the Red Cross in South Carolina. In some areas of the Carolinas, 7 in (180 mm) of rain fell. After the storm, then-Governor of South Carolina Richard Riley declared a disaster in Spartanburg County. Two people were killed when their car hydroplaned due to a tornado in Rockingham County in North Carolina. The same tornado injured 35 people and displaced 102 families. High winds downed tress and minor flooding was reported.\nA frontal boundary, which combined with the remnants of Danny, brought heavy rainfall to the Roanoke Valley region of Virginia. Precipitation amounts ranged from 7 to 8 inches (180 to 200 mm), with estimates of 10 inches (250 mm) in isolated locations. The South Mayo River began to overflow, after rapidly reaching a height of 16 feet (4.9 m). The town of Stuart in Patrick County flooded. Masonite International and the J.P. Stevens Textile Corporation suffered $1.3 million and about $5 million in losses, respectively. Throughout the state, damage totaled approximately $10 million. Following the storm, Governor of Virginia Chuck Robb declared Patrick County a disaster area.\nHeavy rainfall was also reported in Maryland in association with the remnants of Danny, with precipitation totals of 10.49 inches (266 mm) in Hollywood, 7.65 inches (194 mm) in Scotland, 5.69 inches (145 mm) in Tall Timbers, 5.35 inches (136 mm) in Compton, 5.23 inches (133 mm) in Mechanicsville, and 5.12 inches (130 mm) in Budds Creek. Throughout St. Mary's County, at least 14 roads were flooded, with the worst being on Route 243 at McIntosh Run. At some houses, foundations washed away, basements collapsed, and walls fell. Additionally, there were driveways with severe erosion. Additionally, some cars were flooded.\nIn New York City, 17,000 government workers got a day off to save electricity. Six fires occurred in lower Manhattan. Numerous power failures were reported in New England, especially in Massachusetts, forcing the state to buy power from New York and New Brunswick.\n|F#||Location||County / Parish||Date||Time (CST)||Path length||Max width||Damage|\n|F2||Grand Isle area||Jefferson||August 15||2:40 a.m.||0.7 miles (1.1 km)||20 yards (18 m)||Destroyed the roofs of two buildings.|\n|F1||S of Hackberry||Jefferson||August 15||11:45 a.m.||0.7 mi (1.1 km)||20 yd (18 m)||Destroyed two trailers.|\n|F0||N of Reggio||Saint Bernard||August 15||14:30 a.m.||0.7 mi (1.1 km)||18 yd (16 m)|\n|F2||E of Hickory||Newton||August 16||6:35 a.m.||4.5 miles (7.2 km)||520 feet (160 m)|\n|F0||S of Enterprise||Clarke||August 16||8:30 a.m.||160 feet (50 m)||980 feet (300 m)|\n|F2||Parrish area||Walker||August 16||10:00 a.m.||1.3 mi (2.1 km)||120 yd (110 m)||1 death – Tornado moved through business district, and damaged or destroyed 28 buildings.

It was the eighth named storm, third hurricane, and second major hurricane – Category 3 or higher on the Saffir–Simpson scale – of the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season. Humberto formed on September 13 from the prolonged interaction of a tropical wave and an upper-level trough, then paralleled the eastern coastline of Florida through September 16 before turning sharply northeastward. A generally favorable environment allowed Humberto to become a hurricane that day, and the storm further strengthened to reach peak intensity as a Category 3 hurricane on September 18. After its center passed within 65 miles (100 km) of Bermuda around 00:00 UTC on September 19, the system encountered stronger wind shear and drier air. Stripped of its deep thunderstorm activity, the system transitioned to a potent extratropical cyclone early on September 20.\n|Category 3 major hurricane (SSHWS/NWS)|\n|Formed||September 13, 2019|\n|Dissipated||September 20, 2019|\n|(Extratropical after September 19)|\n|Highest winds||1-minute sustained: 125 mph (205 km/h) |\n|Lowest pressure||950 mbar (hPa); 28.05 inHg|\n|Damage||> $25 million (2019 USD)|\n|Areas affected||Bahamas, East Coast of the United States, Puerto Rico, Bermuda, Atlantic Canada|\n|Part of the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season|\nForming on the heels of Hurricane Dorian two weeks prior, Humberto proved far less destructive throughout the Bahamas, producing only some squally weather. The eastern coastline of Florida saw tropical storm-force wind gusts, choppy seas, and light rainfall. Rip currents caused one death in Florida and another in North Carolina. In Bermuda, coastal flooding and rainfall were limited by low astronomical tides and Humberto's quick forward motion. However, peak surface winds of around 110 mph (177 km/h), with higher gusts, caused widespread damage to trees, roofs, crops, and power lines, most notably on the western end of the island chain. Some 90% of Bermuda's banana crop was lost. As many as 600 buildings suffered roof damage, while 27,900 customers were left without power; though most of the network was quickly repaired, some electric outages persisted for at least 10 days. L.F. Wade International Airport and the Bermuda Weather Service campus both suffered property damage. In total, the hurricane wrought over $25 million in damage throughout Bermuda. Hurricane Jerry to the south briefly posed a threat to the territory as cleanup from Humberto got underway, but it ultimately dissipated with no ill-effects.\nThe origins of Hurricane Humberto trace back to a tropical wave that exited the western coast of Africa on August 27, 2019. Accompanied by little convective activity, the disturbance moved westward across the Atlantic for several days. On September 4, the wave encountered a mid- to upper-level trough of low pressure several hundred miles east of the Lesser Antilles. Resistance from the trough split the wave in two; the southern portion proceeded through the Windward Islands, while the northern portion of the wave moved toward the northwest in tandem with the trough. As the trough became negatively tilted, or oriented northwest-to-southeast, strengthening anticyclonic flow on its east side promoted periods of enhanced convection close to the tropical wave. These convective bursts, largely driven by diurnal cycles, led to the development of a broad surface low on the morning of September 12 as the disturbance turned north-northwest through the Turks and Caicos Islands. At 21:00 UTC, the National Hurricane Center (NHC) upgraded the disturbance to a potential tropical cyclone, given that it posed a threat to land but its circulation did not yet meet the organization necessary to designate a tropical cyclone. This facilitated the issuance of tropical storm warnings in the Bahamas. Observations from ships and nearby islands early on September 13 indicated that the low-level center had become better defined, and satellite imagery depicted the formation of a narrow curved spiral band in the disturbance's northeastern quadrant. Based on this evidence, the NHC estimated that a tropical depression formed around 18:00 UTC on September 13, approximately 85 miles (140 km) east of Eleuthera in the Bahamas. It intensified into Tropical Storm Humberto six hours later.\nThe newly formed storm slowly turned northwestward as it tracked toward a weakness in the Azores High. Dry air and wind shear imparted by the trough that contributed to Humberto's genesis now inhibited organization, and the tropical storm more closely resembled a subtropical cyclone rather than a fully tropical one during September 14. As the day progressed, reconnaissance missions found a more aligned storm center, an indication that upper-level winds were beginning to relent. Banding features flourished, upper-level outflow expanded, and a formative inner core became apparent. By 00:00 UTC on September 16, Humberto intensified into the season's third hurricane as it temporarily stalled about 175 miles (280 km) east-northeast of Cape Canaveral, Florida. From that point, a broad upper-level trough over the East Coast of the United States steered the cyclone sharply toward the northeast. While moving over sea surface temperatures of around 84°F (29°C), Humberto intensified during the next day. The hurricane developed a large eye, 35–40 miles (55–65 km) in diameter, surrounded by very cold cloud tops, a hallmark of intense thunderstorm activity. Data from a reconnaissance aircraft mission on the evening of September 17 was used as the basis for upgrading Humberto to a Category 3 hurricane around 00:00 UTC on September 18. This upgrade was applied despite a broad and asymmetric wind field that was most expansive in the southern semicircle.\nAs Humberto passed about 65 miles (100 km) northwest of Bermuda around 00:00 UTC on September 19, it reached maximum sustained winds of 125 mph (205 km/h). Some satellite intensity estimates supported Category 4 status, and a dropsonde in the southern eyewall measured winds aloft of 159 mph (256 km/h), in addition to surface winds of 131 mph (211 km/h). However, these values were recorded at two-second intervals and, consequently, were not representative of sustained winds. Additionally, weather radar imagery from Bermuda indicated a quickly eroding eyewall. Therefore, the strongest winds were likely the result of extratropical processes producing a wind maximum akin to a sting jet, which would not be indicative of Humberto's true strength as a tropical cyclone. As Humberto accelerated ahead of the encroaching upper-level trough to its west, it encountered even stronger upper-level winds and drier air that together triggered a weakening trend. By 00:00 UTC on September 20, the system had become devoid of organized deep convection, marking its transition to an extratropical cyclone while located 575 miles (925 km) south-southwest of Cape Race, Newfoundland. The post-tropical cyclone continued to produce a large area of gale-force winds until it merged with an even larger extratropical low around 18:00 UTC on September 20.\nImmediately upon the designation of a potential tropical cyclone, tropical storm warnings were issued for the northwestern Bahamas, except Andros Island. At 03:00 UTC on September 13, a tropical storm watch was issued for the east coast of the Florida Peninsula between Jupiter Inlet and the Volusia–Brevard County line. After an expansion northward to include more of the Florida coastline, the watch was canceled early the next day.\nA tropical storm watch was issued for Bermuda at 21:00 UTC on September 16 and was upgraded to a hurricane warning 24 hours later. All tropical cyclone watches and warnings were discontinued by 06:00 UTC on September 19, after the storm's departure. Changes in the hurricane's structure as it approached the territory posed some forecasting challenges, especially concerning the arrival time and magnitude of damaging winds. Ahead of the storm, eight cruise ships were diverted away from Bermuda. As early as September 16, L.F. Wade International Airport officials requested that vehicles be moved out of the flood-prone long-term parking area. As conditions deteriorated, the airport closed at 19:00 UTC on September 18, resulting in the cancellation of twelve commercial flights. Aircraft were also evacuated from the airport during the closure. \"The Causeway\", a route connecting the airport to the territory's population centers, was closed as a precautionary measure shortly after a public curfew took effect at 21:00 UTC on September 18. Ferry services were suspended at the same time, while buses stopped running in the late afternoon.\nThe government opened its only official hurricane shelter in the Cedarbridge Academy. It was staffed by 30 people from various agencies and provided accommodation for up to 100 residents. Individuals who lived on boats or who felt unsafe in their homes were encouraged to take advantage of the facility. Ultimately, nearly 50 people sought refuge there. In an effort to communicate storm dangers to the public, Bermuda's government held a public press conference, activated the Emergency Measures Organisation's emergency broadcast radio station, and sent updates to users of a new official mobile app called Tree Frog, introduced just months prior. Governor John Rankin placed 120 members of the Royal Bermuda Regiment on standby, and ambulances and Bermuda Electric Light Company (BELCO) crews were pre-positioned in strategic locations across the island. Schools, businesses, and governmental offices were closed at 16:00 UTC on September 18. The Bermuda Stock Exchange was also closed on September 18 and 19. Many boat owners removed their vessels from marinas to secure them on land.\nDevastated by Hurricane Dorian earlier in the month, the Bahamas were spared significant compounding effects from Tropical Storm Humberto. Grand Bahama International Airport in the northwestern part of the country reported ten-minute sustained winds of just 29 mph (46 km/h) as the storm passed to the east, and rainfall totals were light. Humberto's proximity to the disaster area caused small airfields being used in the distribution of emergency supplies to be closed briefly.\nRip currents produced by Humberto affected the East Coast of the United States for several days. Conditions were particularly treacherous in northeastern Florida, where strong onshore winds and resulting choppy seas made ocean rescues difficult. In St. Johns County, 21 bathers were rescued from rough seas on September 14 and 15. One rip current victim in the county was found dead after a two-day search, while another was hospitalized in critical condition. In Duval County, wind gusts on the periphery of Humberto reached 45 mph (72 km/h). Florida's eastern coastline also experienced a minor 1 to 1.5 ft (0.30 to 0.46 m) storm surge and light rainfall. Farther north, in Topsail Beach, North Carolina, a 62-year-old man drowned after wading into shallow water and getting caught in a rip current.\nAs the storm grew in strength and size, powerful swells propagated southward to the northern coast of Puerto Rico. In addition to coastal flooding, extensive beach erosion damaged some waterfront structures in Espinar, Agunda.\nPowerful westerly winds were the most severe aspect of the hurricane in Bermuda. The highest wind speeds occurred during a relatively brief period between 23:00 UTC on September 18 and 02:00 UTC on September 19, coinciding with the closest approach of Humberto's center. At the height of the storm, rapid fluctuations in air pressure and temperature were observed concurrently with highly turbulent wind patterns. Though unconfirmed, localized tornadic activity in Humberto's right-front quadrant may have been responsible for instances of isolated damage hours before hurricane-force winds spread across the islands. The quick-moving system was accompanied by only 1.57 in (40 mm) of rain, insufficient to wash away foliage-burning salt residue. Peak storm surge values were under 3 ft (0.91 m), and low astronomical tides prevented any significant coastal flooding. The lowest air pressure recorded in Bermuda was 970.4 mbar (28.66 inHg), and the highest waves in the seas off the territory's northern coast were analyzed near 42 ft (13 m).\nAnalysis of observations from a buoy located 9 mi (14 km) off the northwestern coast indicated that parts of Bermuda experienced sustained winds near Category 3 intensity. The instrument recorded ten-minute average winds of 94 mph (152 km/h) gusting to 130 mph (209 km/h), at an elevation of 20 ft (6 m). Adjusting for standard elevation and then converting to a one-minute average yields estimated maximum sustained winds of about 110 mph (178 km/h). On Pearl Island, one-minute sustained winds reached 100 mph (161 km/h), punctuated by gusts as high as 123 mph (198 km/h). L.F. Wade International Airport recorded ten-minute average sustained winds of 82 mph (131 km/h) and a gust of 116 mph (187 km/h). Elevated stations registered even more powerful winds; at 290 ft (88 m) above sea level, the Maritime Operations Centre on St. George's Island measured gusts to 144 mph (232 km/h). A private anemometer on the roof of the historical Commissioner's House (part of the National Museum of Bermuda) recorded an extreme wind gust of 192 mph (309 km/h), but both the National Hurricane Center and Bermuda Weather Service believe this value to have been artificially inflated by the flow of air over the building.\nThese intense winds caused extensive damage, particularly to trees, roofs, and power lines; the worst effects were concentrated in western areas. An estimated 500–600 buildings sustained roof damage, among them being the Somerset Police Station and an African Methodist Episcopal Church in Sandys Parish. This corresponds with the 600 storm-related insurance claims received by three local firms by September 24. Humberto left more than 27,900 electricity customers, around 80% of the territory, without power. Many farmers suffered significant losses of fruit and vegetable crops; in particular, 90% of the banana crop was destroyed, requiring an estimated 18 months to recover. This worsened an ongoing shortage of bananas caused by pest insect infestations in imports of the fruit. Live plants, including poinsettias and vegetable seedlings, died in conjunction with the destruction of nursery greenhouses.\nAt the airport, security fences and a jet bridge were badly damaged. In the Royal Naval Dockyard, a shipping container blew into the water and presumably sank. A man attempting to ride out the storm on his yacht was briefly imperiled when the vessel broke free from its moorings and eventually wrecked on an island in the Great Sound. Off the northern shore, the wreck of the paddle steamer Montana, a popular dive site, was heavily damaged. The Bermuda Weather Service campus suffered the loss of a satellite dish, antennas, and the weather balloon launching platform, which was blown off its foundation. The agency also lost communication with its Doppler weather radar system near the height of the storm. No major damage was reported in the capital city of Hamilton, though some city parks were closed to the public due to unsafe conditions. The Bermuda Fire and Rescue Service responded to numerous calls for minor fires and other incidents. In total, Humberto caused more than $25 million in damage to Bermuda. Despite the severity of the storm and breadth of damage, no deaths or serious injuries were attributed to the hurricane in the territory.\nIn the wake of the hurricane, fallen or low-hanging trees and power lines left some Bermuda roads impassable, so officials advised residents to remain indoors. From the early morning hours on September 19, the Royal Bermuda Regiment assisted government agencies in removing debris from roads. To accommodate the influx of horticultural debris, the Marsh Folly Composting Facility waived its gate fee for disposal of vegetation. The Causeway was reopened to traffic around midday on September 19 following assessments by structural engineers. L.F. Wade International Airport reopened around the same time once repairs to the damaged fencing had been rushed to completion. Government offices, businesses, and most ferry routes resumed normal operations on September 20, while public schools remained closed for an additional day while building evaluations were underway. As BELCO crews repaired the electricity infrastructure, the number of power outages fell to 10,000 by the morning of September 21 and to 1,000 on September 26. The company, which is Bermuda's only electricity supplier, received help from retired employees and mutual aid from another utility company based in the United States. Restoration was temporarily slowed by several utility pole fires caused by salt corrosion. A small number of outages persisted 10 days after the storm. Despite swift cleanup in most locations, a few small streets and parts of the Bermuda Railway Trail remained blocked for several weeks.\nImmediately after the hurricane, damaged structures were temporarily protected by tarps. Bermuda's Department of Planning relaxed its requirements for building permits to fix certain types of storm-related damage. As a consequence of an ongoing slate tile shortage caused by the inability of local quarries to meet demand, permanent roof repairs were delayed for many residents. With intensifying Hurricane Jerry to the south also considered a potential threat, preparedness measures resumed almost immediately after Humberto's passage. However, Jerry degenerated into a remnant low pressure system before reaching Bermuda, resulting in only a brief period of inclement weather.

Because of these natural disasters, ranging from heavy rains to tornadoes and hurricanes, emergency preparedness is essential in these situations.\nThunderstorms and Lightning\nThunderstorms and lightning are among the most common causes of injury and death during Storm Safety Season. Despite the fact that the majority of lightning victims survive, they frequently have a variety of long-term, debilitating symptoms. Thunderstorms are dangerous storms that involve lightning, strong gusts exceeding 50 miles per hour, as well as dangerous hail and flooding.\n- Know how likely thunderstorms are in your area. They can happen at any time of the year in most regions.\n- Become a member of your community’s warning system. Emergency notifications are also provided through the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio.\n- Determine the location of nearby sturdy structures where you live, work, study, and play.\n- Trees that are at danger of falling on your business or home should be cut down or trimmed.\n- Update to Custom Equipment Co. Safety Gates.\nTornadoes are capable of destroying buildings, flipping cars, and generating lethal flying debris. Tornadoes are violently rotating air columns that originate in a thunderstorm and extend to the ground. These catastrophic storms can strike at any time and place. With powerful winds of over 200 mph, they appear like whirling funnels and can cause extensive property destruction as well as death.\n- Know the tornado danger in your neighborhood during Storm Safety Season.\n- Tornadoes are more common in the Midwest and Southeast of the United States.\n- A swirling, funnel-shaped cloud, an incoming cloud of debris, or a thunderous boom, similar to a freight train, are all warnings of a tornado.\n- Become a member of your community’s warning system. Emergency notifications are provided through the Emergency Alert System (EAS), as well as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio.\n- If your neighborhood has sirens, get to know the warning tone, so you’ll know when to react.\n- Keep an eye on the weather forecasts because meteorologists forecast when the conditions are favorable for a tornado to form.\n- Identify and practice going to a safe shelter in the event of high winds. Find a safe room built using FEMA criteria or a storm shelter built to ICC 500 standards.

Wire Mesh Barriers.\nHurricanes are powerful storm systems that form over warm ocean waters and sweep inland. Hurricanes can cause strong winds, heavy rain, storm surges, coastal and inland flooding. They also cause rip currents, tornadoes, landslides, among other things.\nThe hurricane season in the Atlantic spans from June 1 to November 30. The hurricane season in the Pacific spans from May 15 to November 30. Hurricanes can strike anywhere along the United States’ coasts or in any territory in the Atlantic or Pacific Oceans, however they can even strike locations more than 100 miles inland. September is the busiest month for them.\n- Sign up for your community’s warning system. The Emergency Alert System (EAS) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio also provide emergency alerts.\n- If you are at risk for flash flooding, watch for warning signs such as heavy rain.\n- Practice going to a safe shelter for high winds, such as a FEMA safe room or ICC 500 storm shelter. The next best protection is a small, interior, windowless room.\n- Based on your location and community plans, make your own plans for evacuation or sheltering in place and furthermore, act quickly.\n- Become familiar with your evacuation zone, exit route and shelter locations.\n- Gather needed supplies to last at least three days. Bear in mind each person’s specific needs, including medication. In addition, don’t forget the needs of pets.\n- Keep important documents in a safe place or create password-protected digital copies.\n- Protect your property. Declutter drains and gutters. Install check valves in plumbing to prevent backups. Consider hurricane shutters. Review insurance policies.\n- Use Custom Equipment Co.

The harsh proposal was unveiled Tuesday by PM Prayut Chan-o-cha after a cabinet meeting in Narathiwat. The PM said only public transport services would be allowed to use the roads during a ban.\n“Is that what we want? Do we really have to go that far?”\nThe severe measure would be employed on a case by case basis to avoid unnecessarily negative impact.\nThe PM says the government is ready to step in with such measures when ultra-fine PM2.5 dust particles in the air exceed 100 micrograms per cubic metre, twice the national so-called safe limit of ’50’. (PM2.5 is particulate matter 2.5 micrometres or less in diameter suspended in the air)\n“If the dust levels rise to more than 100 micrograms, the government will take over all the work and everyone will be affected.”\nThe PM was responding to questions about calls for tougher measures to deal with sources of the problem and accusations that his government hasn’t done enough. According to the Prime Minister, vehicle exhausts are the primary source of PM2.5, followed by biomass burning and industrial emissions. The specific burins of sugarcane plantations, known to be the largest single cause of the smoke problems, wasn’t addressed.\nIn areas where the PM2.5 levels rise to between 75 and 100 micrograms per cubic metre, the provincial governor will implement more stringent measures like prohibiting heavy trucks from entering certain areas of the province at certain times.\nAnd if PM2.5 levels go above 100 micrograms the government will step in and may implement even more stringent rules, “which would affect everyone,” according to the PM.\nHow these measures would play out in reality, and how motorists would be warned of the restrictions wasn’t explained.\nNatural Resources and Environment Minister Varawut Silpa-archa, meanwhile, hinted that if measures against lorries prove inadequate, private cars could be targeted next.\n“It has been found that 72% of the PM2.5 dust particles come from traffic emissions.”\nThe source of the Minister’s claim wasn’t announced at the time he made the statement.\nAmong the short-term measures to be implemented next in Bangkok is a ban on heavy trucks from entering certain parts of the city on alternate days, possibly in February only.\nBangkok’s governor has also signed an order yesterday to close 437 schools in in the city today due to a forecast of higher pollution levels.\nSOURCE: TheBangkok Post | Air Visual\nGRAPHIC: Air quality has improved around parts of the capital today whilst the fires to the north east and north west are clearly displayed – Air Quality\nJoin the conversation and have your say on Thailand news published on The Thaiger.\nThaiger Talk is our new Thaiger Community where you can join the discussion on everything happening in Thailand right now.\nPlease note that articles are not posted to the forum instantly and can take up to 20 min before being visible.

Two tornadoes have been confirmed by the National Weather Service (NWS) in Delaware and Pennsylvania. NWS often issues watches and warnings to alert residents of severe weather and when to seek shelter. So, what is the difference and how should you prepare?\nSevere Thunderstorm Watch vs. Warning:\nThe NWS issues a Severe Thunderstorm Watch when the atmosphere is favorable for the development of severe thunderstorms. Watch the sky and stay tuned to NOAA Weather Radio, commercial radio or television for information.\nThe NWS issues a Severe Thunderstorm Warning when severe weather has been reported by spotters or indicated by radar. Warnings indicate imminent danger to life and property to those in the path of the storm.\nTornado Watch vs. Warning:\nThe NWS issues a Tornado Watch when weather conditions in an area indicate an increased risk for severe weather that may be capable of producing a tornado.\nThe NWS issues a Tornado Warning when a tornado has been sighted or indicated by weather radar. A warning means you should take shelter immediately.\nPrepare Before the Storm Hits:\nDuring severe weather, remain alert, keep your cell phone charged and take steps to prepare now to potentially save lives and protect property when severe weather strikes.\n- Have several ways to receive alerts. Download the FEMA App (available in English and Spanish) to receive real-time emergency alerts from the National Weather Service and find a nearby shelter.\n- Pay attention to local warnings and follow the safety guidance of your local officials.\n- Make sure your emergency kit is stocked and includes non-perishable food, cash, charging devices, a flashlight and batteries in case of power outages.\n- Consider special needs you and your household members might have. Older adults and people with disabilities may need extra assistance to prepare for the storm. Visit Ready.gov/older-adults and Individuals with Disabilities to get more tips and information.\n- Don’t forget the needs of your pets. Many shelters do not take household pets, so remember to create a plan and have supplies available for your animals.\n- Check on your neighbors. As you prepare your family and loved ones for a disaster, check on neighbors in your community to see if they are doing the same or if they might need help to get started.\n- Prepare your property for dangerous weather by clearing out any large or loose materials. Remove dead trees, hanging branches and loose objects in your yard or patio that could be dangerous during severe winds.\n- Create an emergency plan with your family. Use the new \"Make a Plan\" form to get started. You can easily save an electronic copy or share it with other family members.\nTo schedule an interview, reach out to the FEMA Region 3 News Desk: firstname.lastname@example.org\nFEMA’s mission is helping people before, during, and after disasters.

The scientists said that swift measures must be taken to keep mean global temperatures to a maximum of 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. If not, as much as half a degree increase will dramatically accelerate the risks of drought, floods, extreme heat and poverty worldwide.\nGLF Bonn 2018, was held under the shadow of this warning. Human activities have led to substantial land degradation – of an area roughly the size of South America – posing a major threat to climate resilience, biodiversity, livelihoods and food security. Forests and landscape restoration can help prevent global warming. When forests are cut down, vast amounts of carbon are released into the atmosphere. Through landscape restoration, large amounts of carbon can be stored, and planet-warming emissions reduced. This is considered an inexpensive and economically advantageous way to fight climate change. Landscape level activities that effectively manage ecosystems can facilitate the achievement of various international development targets, including the U.N. Sustainable Development Goals, the New York Declaration on Forests, the Aichi Biodiversity Targets and the U.N. Paris Agreement on climate change.\nGLF Bonn 2018 aimed to spark action to accelerate and mobilize collective action. We know the changes we must make, and the time to change is now.

The Sentinel-5P, otherwise known as Precursor, is a member of the European Union’s Copernicus program, which is the largest Earth-observation program in the world. And while there are a total of six satellites in orbit as part of this program, Precursor is the first and only to measure the chemistry of our planet’s atmosphere.\n“Having Sentinel-5P in orbit will give us daily and global views at our atmosphere with a precision we never had before,” Josef Aschbacher, ESA’s director of Earth-observation programs, said in a statement.\nWhile Precursor isn’t the first satellite to have this important mission, it is the first in quite some time. The only other satellite currently tasked with measuring pollution is NASA’s Aura, which was launched 13 years ago in 2014. And in the time since, quite a few improvements in technology have been made. As Stephen Briggs, senior advisor to the director of ESA’s Earth Observation program, told Space.com, “Sentinel-5P carries an instrument called Tropomi, which is very powerful because it has a very wide swath — 2,600 kilometers wide (1,615 miles). That means that it will give us the view of the whole Earth every day. Every day, we will get measurements of every point on the Earth.”\nWith Tropomi, which was developed in large part by the Netherlands’ national meteorological agency (KNMI), the satellite will measure several pollutants, including the levels of nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide, which result from fossil fuels, as well as carbon monoxide, formaldehyde, ozone, and greenhouse gas methane.\n“Tropomi will make 20 million observations every day, covering the entire globe at a resolution that is 10 times better than we have ever seen before,” KNMI’s principal investigator Pepijn Veefkind told the BBC. “That allows us to see pollution in cities on a much finer scale. In Rotterdam, for example, we will be able to distinguish the harbour from the city centre; and we will be able to see the pollution in shipping lanes over the oceans.”\n- Astronomers spot a new planet orbiting our neighboring star\n- Can we explore Mars for cheaper?

The meteorological observatory at Nungambakkam recorded 6 cm rainfall during the 24-hour ending 8.30 a.m. on Thursday. The one at Meenambakkam registered 3 cm of rainfall.\nThe rain gauges at Anna University recorded 7 cm followed by DGP office with 6 cm. According to officials, much of the rainfall was received after 2 a.m. However, the automatic weather stations in Ennore and Madhavaram did not receive much rainfall. Describing this as an unexpected thunderstorm development, officials of the Meteorological Department said convective activity aided by a weak trough formed over south coastal Tamil Nadu led to the rainfall. The department had not expected the revival of rain spell till first week of October.\nWater stagnated on many arterial roads, including Sterling Road, Perambur High Road and Jawaharlal Nehru Salai even after a few hours since the rain abated. The impact of rains was evident from the damaged stretches on Third Avenue in Anna Nagar, Nelson Manickam Road in Aminjikarai, Arcot Road, Konnur High Road and Ganesapuram Main Road, Vyasarpadi.\nRadhika Shankar, a resident of Ayanavaram, said there has not been much improvement on the road condition in several areas over the years. Water gets stagnated even after a short spell be it Barnaby Road and Rajarathinam Street, Kilpauk or Perambur High Road due to lack of stormwater drain or their poor maintenance. General Patters Road, Royapettah, is a classic example of inundation year after year, she pointed out.\nAccording to Chennai Corporation officials, the problem recurred on GP Road as the road was at a lower level than Anna Salai and the SWD network was nearly 40 years old. Measures are being taken to repair the network.\nThough the rainfall had brought down the temperature to normal of 33 degree Celsius, it had affected traffic flow on arterial roads, particularly those with ongoing infrastructure projects, including Erukkancheri High Road. Residents of Vyasarpadi said they had to take a detour as many roads were water-logged.\nCompounding the problem for the motorists was the areas where work on storm water drains was underway. Two persons had slipped into the trenches dug for SWD on the water-logged Raja Street in T.Nagar.\nHeavy rains lashed a few pockets in the southern suburbs, causing immense damage to the already battered arterial roads. Huge quantity of debris was left behind on the carriageway on Grand Southern Trunk in Chromepet after stagnated water receded.\nThe service lane underneath the bridge of Chennai Bypass over the Tambaram – Somangalam Road was severely damaged, crippling vehicle movement.

The East and North shores have missed some of the storms that have come through.”\nThe Mount Rose area had a deeper snow depth last year (35 inches), was at 80 percent of median and was enjoying the most snow in the basin. At the same time, lower elevations were bare with most of those storms delivering rain at lake level. Kirkwood Mountain Resort remains the only ski and riding area 100 percent open with Sierra-at-Tahoe nearly there.\n“This area does not reflect other areas which are close or above normal, so it’s a little misleading,” Anderson said. “But we’re still very early, about one-third of the way through the snow season.”\nOn 3rd Jan, the Sierra snowpack was measured at 25.5 inches deep, 80 percent of normal with a snow water equivalent (SWE) of nine inches. These figures are 36 percent of the April 1 average, the date used as the maximum snowpack that will be received in the mountains. In January of 2018, water officials found just three inches of snow to measure in the same spot they measured today. A year ago the snow depth was just 3 percent of average with a SWE of 0.4 inches.\n“A stark contrast with last year,” said John King, DWR water resource engineer. “The season is still early, anything is possible between now and May.”\nStatewide, the snowpack is at 67 percent of normal based on data supplied by the snow sensor network. About half of the annual precipitation for the state comes between December and February.\nThe State Climatologist Dr. Michael Anderson told those gathered at the official measurement reading that temperatures are running two to four degrees Fahrenheit warmer than average, which is what they had forecast.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It is likely to advance further north and reduce to a depression.\nThe cyclone made landfall near Kutubdia around 6:00am with heavy winds of 114 kmph at St Martin’s Island, 85 kmph at Cox’s Bazar, and 135 kmph in Teknaf.\nLatest weather forecast said, the cyclone would influence rain accompanied by temporary gusty winds at most places of Mymensingh, Dhaka, Khulna, Barisal, Chittagong and Sylhet divisions and at many places over Rangpur & Rajshahi divisions.\n- Most viewed\n- ‘Make child marriage socially unacceptable’\n- 28 July Deaths\n- 28 July Births\n- 28 July Events\n- 'Lipstick Under My Burkha' success a win for cinema: Ekta Kapoor\n- Dogs with cancer may survive longer with high cholesterol\n- Playing video games may cut stress at work\n- Dengue Fever: Heal with juice\n- Enjoy monsoon with the right food steps!\n- 22 July Deaths\n- Minneapolis police chief resigns after Australian woman's shooting\n- Sunny Leone is the new mom in B-town!\n- 22 July Births\n- Microcredit programmes turn many women self-employed\n- Useful tips for beautiful nails\n- 22 July Events\n- Muslim Ummah facing harassment for involvement of some people in militancy: PM\n- Shabana receives Lifetime Achievement Award from Prime Minister Hasina","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This is going to be a dangerous winter storm,” said Alan Dunham, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Taunton, Mass. “Wherever you need to get to, get there by Friday afternoon and don’t plan on leaving.”\nThe heaviest snowfall was expected Friday night and into Saturday. Wind gusts could reach 75 mph. Widespread power failures were feared, along with flooding in coastal areas still recovering from Superstorm Sandy in October.\nBoston could get 2 to 3 feet of snow, while New York City was expecting 10 to 14 inches. Mayor Michael Bloomberg said plows and 250,000 tons of salt were being put on standby. To the south, Philadelphia was looking at a possible 2 to 5 inches.\nMassachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick banned all traffic from roads after 4 p.m., believed to be the state’s first such ban since the blizzard of 1978.\nIn the southeast Massachusetts town of Whitman, where up to 30 inches of snow is forecast, public works crews were clearing crosswalk signs, trash barrels and anything else that might impede plows later in the day.\n“We’ve had instances where they have predicted something big and it’s petered out,” said Dennis Smith, a DPW worker. “I don’t think this is going to be one of those times.”\nSmith’s partner, Bob Trumbull, sounded a note of optimism, saying the relative lack of snow earlier this winter would make this storm easier to clean up.\n“At least there is room for this snow. There are no snow banks so we will have a place to put it,” Trumbull said.\nSnow was being blamed for a 19-car pileup in Maine Friday morning in Cumberland, as 6 inches blanketed the area.\nA New Jersey town hit hard by Superstorm Sandy issued a voluntary evacuation order for areas that are still recovering from that storm. Residents in flood-prone sections of Brick Township were also urged to move their cars to higher ground by 5 p.m. Friday.\nAmtrak’s Northeast Corridor service will be suspended between New York and Boston at 1:15 p.m. EST.\nThe organizers of New York’s Fashion Week — a closely watched series of fashion shows held under a big tent — said they will have extra crews to help with snow removal and will turn up the heat and add an extra layer to the venue.\nAirlines have cancelled 3,775 flights in preparation for the Northeast storm, according to airline tracking website FlightAware. At New York City’s three main airports, most domestic carriers planned to cease operations between 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. Friday, resuming after noon on Saturday, FlightAware said. At Boston’s Logan and other New England airports, most airlines were to cease operations between noon and 4 p.m., and would restart Saturday afternoon.\nThis is a storm of major proportions,” Boston Mayor Thomas Menino said Friday. “Stay off the roads. Stay home.”\nBlizzard warnings were posted for parts of New Jersey and New York’s Long Island, as well as portions of Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Connecticut, including Hartford, New Haven, Conn., and Providence. The warnings extended into New Hampshire and Maine.\nIn New England, it could prove to be among the top 10 snowstorms in history, and perhaps even break Boston’s record of 27.6 inches, set in 2003, the National Weather Service said. The last major snowfall in southern New England was well over a year ago — the Halloween storm of 2011.\nDunham said southern New England has seen less than half its normal snowfall this season, but “we’re going to catch up in a heck of a hurry.” He added: “Everybody’s going to get plastered with snow.”\nSome gas stations in Connecticut ran out of fuel Thursday night during the rush to prepare for the storm. Motorists in Torrington, West Hartford, Vernon, East Lyme and other towns ran out of fuel as people filled their cars and trucks as well as containers for generators and snow blowers. Long lines were reported at many stations.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A California Highway Patrol dispatcher reported snow flurries near the Coliseum about 2 a.m.\nSnow, hail, torrential rains and standing water on roadways contributed to hundreds of fender-bender accidents in the state on Wednesday and early Thursday, the CHP said.\nRain on already-saturated hillsides created an extreme danger of mudslides, officials said. Slides forced the evacuation of two homes in Orinda and closed Highway 1 south of Big Sur and Highway 84 in San Mateo County. Caltrans said it had no prediction on when the Coast Highway, closed since the weekend, would be reopened.\nSnow fell on 4,062-foot Mount Hamilton east of San Jose and 2,608-foot Mount Tamalpais and other Coast Range mountains both north and south of San Francisco.\nLATEST SFGATE VIDEOS\n- The family of Sahleem Tindle watches body cam footage Courtesy of the Tindle family\n- They Survived the School Shooting.

Storm-related spills from a sewage plant on Pilarcitos Creek fouled the ocean with raw sewage off the San Mateo Coast and prompted the county to post warnings along beaches and at the Fitzgerald Marine Reserve in Moss Beach.\nFlooding also was reported in the San Lorenzo River lowlands in Santa Cruz County.\nOroville received 5 inches of rain, and as many as 30 homes were flooded.\nTwo Sonoma County cousins canoeing in the rain-swollen Laguna de Santa Rosa were stranded in the water for 30 minutes Wednesday when they capsized and had to be rescued by firefighters.\nThings were no better in the mountains, where more than 2 yards of snow have fallen since the weekend. U.S. 50 was closed from Kyburz to Meyers for several hours Thursday morning because of avalanche controls and chains were required on that route as low as four miles east of Placerville.\nChains also were required on Interstate 80 over Donner Summit, on U.S. 395 in California and Nevada and on most other mountain roads. I-80 was closed at intervals Wednesday because of blowing snow, slick roadways and numerous accidents and spinouts. High wind warnings remained posted along U.S. 395 where blowing snow reduced visibility to near zero in some areas.\nAvalanche warnings, hail, black ice\nA winter storm watch for the Sierra Nevada was downgraded to a snow advisory, but officials said driving in the mountains would remain extremely hazardous.\nWarnings of extreme avalanche danger remained between Yuba Pass and Sonora Pass, the U.S. Forest Service said.\nIn the Bay Area, hail pounded various areas, causing some accidents but causing no major damage. To the north, hail covered Humboldt Hill south of Eureka to a depth of nearly an inch.\nTemperatures dropped into the 30s and 40s in the Bay Area overnight, creating still another hazard - black ice. The CHP said numerous accidents were caused by the ice, which is difficult to detect because it has no reflection.\nA CHP spokeswoman said black ice on southbound I-280 caused as many as 10 accidents above Millbrae during the night.\nNear record low, power outages\nSan Francisco's overnight low was 43 degrees, 3 degrees below the normal low for the date and only 5 degrees warmer than the 106-year-old record low.\nSome 68,000 customers lost power during the the five-day string of Pacific storms, a PG&E official said. Almost all of had service restored by Thursday.\nAlong with the hail, there were thunderstorms and gusty winds throughout the state. Heavy rains frequently accompanied the thunderstorms, created by a collision of warm air from the subtropics and cold air from the Arctic. Winds gusted to 47 mph at San Francisco International Airport during the day but did not appreciably affect flight operations.\nFunnel cloud threatens\nA funnel cloud was spotted nearly Salinas early Wednesday but did not touch down. A tornado a day earlier did minor damage in Sonoma County.\nRainfall amounts from the departing storm were more modest than earlier in the week. San Francisco had .58 inches in the 24 hours ending at 4 a.m., San Rafael had .41, Oakland .38 and Alameda .36.\nElsewhere, Blue Canyon reported 1.69 inches, Monterey 1.18, Fresno, .46, Eureka .44, Paso Robles .33 and Mount Shasta .03.\nScattered showers were expected to diminish during the day Thursday, giving way to a day of dry weather before the next storm from the Gulf of Alaska was due to arrive on Saturday, the National Weather Service said.<","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Although most storms likely went unrecorded, and many records have been lost, recollections of hurricane occurrences survive from some sufficiently populated coastal areas, and rarely, ships at sea that survived the tempests.\nPre-17th century17th century18th century1800s\nObservation data for years before 1492 is completely unavailable because most natives of North America lacked written languages to keep records in the pre-Columbian era, and most records in written Mesoamerican languages either do not survive or have not been deciphered and translated. Scientists now regard even data from the early years of the Columbian era as suspicious because Renaissance scientists and sailors made no distinction between tropical cyclones and extratropical systems, and incomplete because European exploration of North America and European colonization of the Americas reached only scattered areas in the 16th century. However, palaeotempestological research allows reconstruction of pre-historic hurricane activity trends on timescales of centuries to millennia. A theory has been postulated that an anti-phase pattern exists between the Gulf of Mexico coast and the East Coast of the United States. During the quiescent periods, a more northeasterly position of the Azores High would result in more hurricanes being steered towards the Atlantic coast. During the hyperactive period, more hurricanes were steered towards the Gulf coast as the Azores High—controlled by the North Atlantic oscillation—was shifted to a more southwesterly position near the Caribbean.\nREAD MORE AT WIKIPEDIA","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The hurricane, which this afternoon was downgraded to a Category 3, has left at least three people dead in the state, including a sheriff’s deputy, and over 1.5 million households and businesses without power.\nIn Miami, winds whipped around high-rise buildings at speeds approaching 100 mph, the National Weather Service said. A 94 mph wind gust was recorded at Miami International Airport.\nA tower crane slammed by the high winds collapsed on top of a high-rise under construction in Miami this morning, city officials said.\nThe Miami-Dade Police Department tweeted that its officers are sheltered for their safety and cannot respond to calls for help, warning residents, “DO NOT venture out!”\nIn Pembroke Pines north of Miami, a 109 mph wind gust was reported.\nIrma this morning also brought wind gusts of 120 mph to the National Key Deer Refuge on the Florida Keys and 89 mph winds to Key West.\nFlorida Keys officials said today that residents who evacuated should not return until further notice.\nBy 11 a.m., the storm had moved away from the Keys and up toward Naples on Florida’s west coast.\nIrma is forecast to move up the western coastline of Florida this afternoon, with another landfall possible later today near Fort Myers and Naples, with winds of up to 115 mph expected this afternoon in the western part of Collier County.\nAt 2 p.m., Irma was 35 miles south of Naples.\nWind gusts of 75 mph were recorded at the Naples Airport early today, and officials were warning people to stay indoors and away from windows.\nSome now sheltered in Naples had fled from the eastern side of Florida when it was first forecast that Irma would hit the eastern coastline. The mayor of Naples said those in hotels around the city are being ordered out of common areas and into their rooms.\nFlorida Gov. Rick Scott warned residents of dangerous storm surges that could reach 10 to 15 feet above sea level in the Naples area.\n“Do not think the storm is over when the wind slows down,” Scott said Saturday. The dangerous storm surge “will rush in and could kill you.”\n“You need to stay in a safe place,” the governor said. “Be prepared, listen to local evacuation advisories.”\nThe National Weather Service warned Florida residents that being in the eye of a hurricane can lead to a false sense of security: “IF winds go calm, you’re in the eye. Stay inside! Winds dramatically shift and will do so violently! STAY INSIDE!”\nFatalities in Florida\nAs Irma bore down on Florida this morning, at least three deaths were reported in the state.\nA man in Monroe County, which encompasses Key West, was killed after he lost control of a truck that carried a generator as winds whipped at tropical-storm strength, officials said.\nTwo other people, a sheriff’s deputy and a corrections officer, died from a two-car crash in the rain in Hardee County, which is about 60 miles inland from Sarasota, officials said.\nThe deputy, identified as Julie Bridges, was a 13-year veteran of the county force, said Hardee County Sheriff Arnold Lanier. She was heading home after a night shift, the Florida Highway Patrol said.\nThe second victim was a sergeant at the Hardee Correctional Institute who had been on his way to work, the highway patrol said.\nMeanwhile, in the Caribbean, the death toll from the hurricane has risen to 22, bringing the total number in Irma’s path who have died to at least 25.\nMillions ordered to evacuate\nAs the monster storm neared, about 6.5 million Floridians were under mandatory and voluntarily evacuation orders. Evacuations were ordered in Georgia and South Carolina as well.\nOver 116,000 people are in 530 shelters across Florida to ride out the storm, while others decided to hunker down at home bracing for Irma’s impact.\nWidespread power outages\nBy noon today, over 1,500,000 customers were without power in Florida.\nA tornado watch is in effect today for Fort Myers, Tampa, Melbourne, Daytona Beach and Jacksonville. One tornado was confirmed this morning in Hardee County.\nGovernor vows to take care of Floridians\nScott said at a news conference today that he “requested a major disaster declaration from President [Donald] Trump to help bring important federal resources and aid to Florida.”\nScott said hours earlier on ABC News’ “This Week” that “we’re going to make sure every person in the state is taken care of to the extent we can.

It’ll still be colder than normal for much of the country, the almanac says, and New England will get a “cold slap in the face” after missing last winter’s misery. Finally, residents of the upper Midwest and Great Lakes are expected to get the piles of snow.\nThe Farmers’ Almanac, which claims 80 to 85 percent accuracy, bases its predictions on a secret mathematical formula using the position of the planets, tidal action of the moon and sunspots.\nEd O’Lenic from NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center said the scientific community doesn’t accept tides, planetary alignment and sunspots as effective predictors of temperature or precipitation, but he stopped short of calling the almanac’s meteorological methods a bunch of hooey.\n“In science you have to have an open mind. Someday, someone could conceivably find some scintilla of evidence that it’s useful,” O’Lenic said of the almanac’s methodology.\nFor the record, NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center anticipates a warmer-than-normal winter for the mid-Atlantic and Southeast and colder-than-normal weather in the Northwest. That puts it at odds with the almanac, which calls for mild temperatures in the Northwest and cold in the Southeast.\n— News service reports","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

I want the New Year's feeling,\" said Viktoria Makhovskaya, a street vendor who sells gloves and mittens. \"This is a disgusting winter. I don't like it at all.\"\nMoscow is not alone in the unexpected warmth -- it stretches across the continent.\nPreliminary data from the Met Office, Britain's national weather service, and the University of East Anglia indicate that 2006 has been the warmest year in Britain since record-keeping concerning weather conditions began in central England in 1659.\nTrees are sprouting leaves in Switzerland. And low-altitude ski resorts across the Alps look more like springtime meadows. \"We are currently experiencing the warmest period in the Alpine region in 1,300 years,\" Reinhard Boehm, a climatologist at Austria's Central Institute for Meteorology and Geodynamics, told the Associated Press in Vienna.\nBoehm was one of the authors of a European Union-funded climate study that found similar warming periods in the 10th and 12th centuries. But, he said, it's warmer now, and \"it will undoubtedly get warmer in the future.\"\nThe Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development warns in a report this month \"that climate change poses serious risks to the snow reliability of Alpine ski areas, and consequently to the regional economies that depend upon winter tourism.\"\nUp to 80 million people visit Alpine resorts each year, and they are a key contributor to the local economies, the report says.\n\"The Alps are particularly sensitive to climate change and recent warming there has been roughly three times the global average,\" the report says. On average, 90 percent of 666 medium to large Alpine ski areas now have adequate snow cover for at least 100 days a year. The remaining 10 percent are already operating under marginal conditions.\nA rise in average temperature of 1 degree Celsius (about 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit) could reduce the number of what the report calls \"snow-reliable\" ski areas to about 500. A rise of 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) would cut that number to 400.\nThe Washington area has logged record high temperatures recently as well, which meteorologists attribute to atmospheric and oceanic disruptions in the tropical Pacific Ocean known as El Niño.\nIn Moscow, the streets have been stubbornly dry and gray in recent weeks. Parks, fields and forests are carpeted in alien hues of green and sprouting mushrooms. At the Moscow Zoo, the brown bears are awake and moody. And some birds, according to zoo spokeswoman Elena Mendosa, \"are making love in ponds because they apparently believe spring has come.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It’s not like they can’t help it; their umbrellas and raincoats just can’t withstand the incessant rains that lash the region, at times for 15-21 days.\nCherrapuni, 65km southwest of Shillong, was once believed to be the world’s wettest place before reports based on questionable meteorological inputs bestowed the honour upon Mawsynram village, which is situated 10km as the crow flies from the town.\nBoth town and village, separated by hills, are in Meghalaya’s East Khasi Hills district, which borders Bangladesh. But if the rainfall records maintained by the Guwahati-based Regional Meteorological Centre of the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) are anything to go by, Cherrapunji, perhaps, retains its distinction as the wettest place in the world.\nIMD data suggests that the traditional capital of a Khasi tribal chieftain received more rainfall than that of Mawsynram over the last few years.\n“Mawsynram did receive excessive rainfall (not compared to Cherrapunji) in the last six to seven years but that doesn’t mean it is the wettest place. To declare that scientifically, you need long-term data. Climatological studies have not been done for Mawsynram because of non-availability of data of last 20 years,” said MK Gupta, IMD deputy director general.\nFrom 2006-2010, the average annual rainfall recorded at Cherrapunjee was 873cm, 1,265cm, 1,141cm, 897cm and 1,347cm respectively compared to 795cm, 1,311cm, 1,082cm, 875cm and 1,159 cm at Mawsynram. In 2011 and 2012, the average annual rainfall recorded at Cherrapunjee was 1,147cm and 872cm.\nThe figures for Mawsynram during this time has ‘gaps’ as a part-time observatory set up there remained non-functional. Cherrapunjee, has a well-equipped departmental observatory.\nIs Cherrapunjee the wettest place? “One cannot conclusively say if Mawsynram or Cherrapunjee is the world's wettest place.\nThere might be other villages in areas around that are receiving more rainfall. Unless we have rain-measuring gadgets everywhere, it is very difficult to pinpoint,” Gupta argued. Another meteorologist says that there has not been any major slide in the average annual rainfall at Cherrapunjee over the last few years.\n“We can come to a conclusion only after scientific analysis of the data,” he said.\nSplitting hair on wetness aside, what makes Cherrapunjee and Mawsynram attract rainfall more than anywhere else in South Asia?\nMeteorologist Sunit Das said: “Winds blowing in from the Bay of Bengal toward Meghalaya drive the moisture up where it condenses, causing rainfall at the periphery of the ridge; the plains of Bangladesh begin where the slopes of the hills housing Mawsynram and Cherrapunjee end.\nThe funnel-shaped catchment opening to the south on either side of where Cherrapunjee and Mawsynram are located seems to increase the convergence in air rushing in from the Bay of Bengal.” The science behind the soaking is lost to the likes of Acacius Tding, a resident of Cherrapunjee’s Pdengshnong area.\n“We don’t think of centimetres whenit rains.

But it could avoid landfall and slowly move west on Wednesday.\nMexican National Water Commission director David Korenfeld said the hurricane could be pushed westward out to sea if it comes into contact with a cold front.\nThe region is still recovering from Tropical Storm Manuel, which struck Guerrero in mid-September while another system, Ingrid, slammed the opposite coast almost simultaneously.\nThe twin storms claimed 157 lives and damaged the homes of 1.7 million people.\nHardest hit was Guerrero, where 101 of the deaths were recorded and a massive landslide buried a mountain village.\nThe unusual double storm hit occurred during a holiday weekend, leaving thousands of tourists stranded in Acapulco due to closed airports and highways.\nIn Manuel's aftermath, some 5,000 people are still living in shelters in Guerrero and 5,000 other families may have to be relocated.\nThe National Water Commission said Raymond could also dump torrential rains in Michoacan and soak several other states, as well as Mexico City.\nKorenfeld warned that soil across the region was already saturated with water, increasing the chances of flooding and landslides.\nHe said Mexico was on its way this year to breaking a record by being hit by eight named tropical storms or hurricanes -- four on each coast.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Although southeast Louisiana is generally blessed with mild temperatures at this time of the year, many of us have had to crank up our seldom used heaters as temperatures have plummeted and we have been kept damp by a steady mist.\nAlthough this makes being outside unpleasant and driving hazardous, it is the least of Louisiana’s worries when it comes to weather.\nIn fact, we should all be very happy and thankful for this year’s hurricane season, which was the mildest since 1982. Although there were predictions that as many as 20 storms would form in 2013, there were only 13 named tropical storms and two hurricanes.\nOne of those storms, Tropical Storm Karen, seemed to be aimed in our direction in early October and was anticipated to become a category 1 hurricane, prompting St. Charles Parish President V.J. St. Pierre to issue a state of emergency.\nHowever, the storm broke up before it struck and those in St. Charles Parish had a sunny weekend with a only few showers and nice breeze to cool us off.\nOf course we should feel lucky for this as only last year Hurricane Isaac, a category 1, hovered over the area for a day and a half causing heavy wind damage, widespread and long lasting power outages and severe flooding to our neighbors in St. John the Baptist Parish. When it was all said and done, the storm caused $2.39 billion in damage in the region.\nSo while we were spared this year, we know it is only a matter of time before we are hit again. In fact, atmospheric scientists just this year said Louisiana should anticipate getting hit by a hurricane every three years rather than every four as was previously predicted. This makes the recent action on the West Bank Hurricane Protection Levee even more important.\nSo this Thanksgiving as we sit down to dinner with our families and friends, we should be thankful for a good year weather wise and developments in flood protection that should provide us a higher degree of safety for years to come.\n|heraldguide.com is a supplement to St. Charles Herald Guide.\nCopyright © 2001 - 2017 St. Charles Herald Guide, Inc.

Look towards the heavens tonight, as the grand finale of Orionid’s sublime display is set to reach its apex.\nAccording to Mental Floss’ David W. Brown, the final shebang of the Orionid Meteor Shower is generated by Halley’s Comet, which returns to Earth’s orbit about every 75 years. Per Brown, we learn that when the comet enters Earth’s orbit, it leaves a trail of radiant orionids, or dust particles, in its wake. “When the Earth passes through that debris field, those particles slam into our atmosphere at tens of thousands of miles per hour, generating terrific streaks of light as they burn away,” he writes.

Due to the vicinity of the southern end of Velebit, the 145 km long coastal mountain range that forms part of the Dinaric Alps, the area less than 20 km inland from Zadar is known for high frequency of severe Bora. In contrast, in the city of Zadar Bora is considerably less frequent and weaker compared to its surroundings. In this study, we investigate small-scale characteristics and spatial variability of severe Bora flow in the wider Zadar area with the objective of identifying reasons for the “Zadar calm”.\nA detailed analysis is undertaken of several severe Bora events that occurred in the winter-spring 2004/5 season, during which a new sodar system was deployed at Zadar-Zemunik. The Zadar sodar data provides continuous vertical soundings in the range from 40 to 700 m at temporal resolution of 10 minutes. They reveal a significant variability in the wind speed and direction during the severe Bora events. The maximum Bora speeds were observed in the layer between 300 and 700 m, while the low-level flow was characterized by weak winds. This observational analysis also includes surface data from Zadar and several automatic weather stations located inside the target area as well as the Zadar - Zemunik radio-sounding data.\nThe observations are compared with results of very high-resolution numerical simulation carried out with the NRL COAMPS model. Initial simulation results indicate that the Bora flow never fully penetrated to the surface near the coast in the Zadar area. The simulation results also suggest that the primary mountain wave could be responsible for low-level flow separation over the steep terrain, leading to weak surface winds over Zadar, downstream of Velebit.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

However, south of the largest hail, marginally severe hail (0.75 to 1 inch) also caused considerable damage as it was propelled by 70-plus mph downburst (rear flank downdraft) winds. This storm has been named the “Tristate Hailstorm” ... and is considered the most costly hailstorm in U.S. history with insured losses of $1.5 billion.\nKnown Missouri insurance claims consist of 120,000 home claims, 65,000 auto claims, and 8,000 commercial claims. It is believed nearly every home and business in northern St. Louis County suffered hail damage. All of the SUVs parked outside at the Ford Motor Company assembly plant in Hazelwood were damaged (hundreds), while in the adjacent community of Florissant, every home was estimated to have received damage. Twenty-four commercial and military aircraft at Lambert St. Louis International Airport were also damaged.\nUninsured losses are unknown. Largely overshadowed by the devastating hail were the tornadoes produced by the HP supercell. This single storm produced a total of 9 weak tornadoes (6 F1, 3 F0) with path lengths ranging from 1 to 10 miles. The F1 tornado which struck Fulton (southeast of Columbia) destroyed a mobile home, producing the first tornado fatality in Missouri since 1994. With $12 million damage reported from the tornadoes, the total damage from the tornadoes paled in comparison to the hail damage.\nMore at: http://www.crh.noaa.gov/lsx/?n=04_10_2001","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

According to forecasters, the population should reach at least one million residents by 2023.\nOmaha has four distinct seasons. Summers are very warm, frequently reaching into the 90s and less commonly into the 100s; July averages 76.7°F. Summer also brings moderate to high humidity and frequent thunderstorms. During winter, the average seasonal snowfall is 28.7 inches, and the January daily average temperature is 23.5°F (low temperatures reach 0°F on an average of 11 days annually and occasionally dipping much lower). Based on 30-year temperature averages obtained from NOAA‘s National Climatic Data Center for the months of December, January and February (as of 2014), Weather Channel ranked Omaha the 5th coldest major U.S. city. There are an average of 2 tornados per year, with most occurring during the summer (especially in June).\nOmaha’s terrain is fairly flat. It is built on the bank of the river and in the Missouri River Valley. The metro area has a number of lakes and rivers, including Lake Manawa, Papillion Creek, Carter Lake, Platte River and the Glenn Cunningham Lake. East Omaha sits on a flood plain west of the Missouri River.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Newsprinters will make continued efforts to deliver newspapers to retailers during Monday,” the statement said.\n“Please follow our websites and apps for news and further updates.”\nThe yellow warnings are in place from Sunday until Monday morning for northern and south-western Scotland, Northern Ireland, north-eastern England, the Midlands and South West as well as London and the South East.\nMet Office meteorologist Rachel Ayers said: “It will continue to be a very cold day, with maximum temperatures of 1C to 4C on Sunday, and, as we head into the evening, we see persistent rain, sleet or snow in the far South East of England, which is what we have a yellow warning out for from 6pm on Sunday.\n“We could see 2cm to 5cm (of snow), perhaps up to 10cm in some places, with Kent and Sussex most affected, with areas most exposed such as North and South Downs and higher ground going to see the more significant accumulations.\n“There will be ice forming, particularly near to the coast where there is rain and sleet, and freezing temperatures which could cause some travel disruption to start Monday with that valid until 9am.”\nMs Ayers said that although cold temperatures, freezing fog and wintry showers are expected through the week, cloud cover could prevent some of the more extreme temperatures experienced in recent days.\nShe added that there is a possibility of slightly milder conditions arriving next weekend but it is too early to be certain.\nThe AA has advised motorists to adjust their driving to the freezing conditions on Monday morning.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Which dataset should we trust for temperature measurements? Should we jump on board the lower estimates of sensitivity provided by observation-based analyses or stick with the models that have not performed well at all over the past decades?\nShould we follow the melting of glaciers, despite the low numbers that are analyzed? Should we put a lot of stock in GRACE satellite measurements of the great ice caps of the world? The hoops you have to jump through to really get a handle on ocean heat content are intimidating–is the very slight warming of very deep water really happening due to surface warming of the past 50 years?\nOne underlooked resource is measurements of the lakes of the Northern Hemisphere. They are contained and easier to watch and measure. They are in the part of the world where climate change is noticeable. There are a lot of data points to look at. For example, Lake Erie’s lowest maximum of ice cover since 1973 was in 1998, the famous El Nino year. But one of its highest maximums was in 2014.\n“Data for most Connecticut lakes is scattered, but summertime measurements at Candlewood Lake show a clear warming trend, with average surface temperatures increasing about 1.2 degrees Celsius, or near 2.2 degrees Fahrenheit, since the Candlewood Lake Authority began monitoring in 1985.”\n“Lakes in Canada are some of the fastest-warming in the world, a new study shows. A “study looked at 235 lakes on six continents representing half the world’s freshwater supply. Their surface temperatures between 1985 and 2009 had been measured both directly and using satellites. The lakes had different sizes, depths, locations and other characteristics, but despite their variability, “over 90 per cent of them had a clear signal of warming.” …”The study found that on average, lakes were warming at a rate of 0.34 C per decade — faster than either the ocean (increasing 0.12 C per decade) or the air (warming by 0.25 C per decade), the researchersreported in the journal Geophysical Research Letters and announced at the American Geophysical Union meeting San Francisco Wednesday.”\nOf course, nothing is ever simple. “a couple of factors are having a particularly strong effect on lakes like Superior. One is that lakes that are normally ice-covered in winter are melting earlier in the spring, exposing the lake to warmer air temperatures for a longer period of time. Another, ironically, is that decreased pollution in North America is leading to less smog and cloud cover. “So more solar radiation is hitting the lakes and water temperatures are warming faster than you’d just expect simply [from] climate change.”\nAnd then there’s this, from June 2014: “With summer just around the corner, the Great Lakes are officially free of ice for the first time in seven months. While only weeks ago, chunks of ice could be seen floating on the lakes as residents and visitors flocked to the waters for Memorial Day, as of June 6, the lakes were classified as ice-free.\n“This year is the longest we’ve seen ice on Lake Superior in our 40 years of records,” Physical Scientist with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration George Leshkevich said.” But… wasn’t 2014 a record hot year, the year that killed the pause?\nSigh… Ah, well, at least I’m trying to think outside the box:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Storm damage was mostly limited to a some trees hit or down across roads.\nThe NWS reported moderate to heavy rainfall ranging from amounts of 1 to 2.5 inches that fell across much of the area.\nThere were reports of water over the road in some places. A report made to the NWS stated there was water over Highway E at Wild Cat Creek, northwest of Rolla, Wednesday evening.\nSome of the storms also produced hail to the size of 1.25-inch in diameter and localized wind damage.\nThe Newburg Police Department reported mostly penny-size hail with a few hail stones up the size of a half-dollar around 3:30 p.m. Around 7 p.m. one-inch hail was reported north and northeast of St. James.\nAccording to Rolla Municipal Utilities General Manager Rodney Bourne, the storm caused outages for 810 customers around 5 p.m. The longest outages lasted 36 minutes, he said.\nOutages were reported in the area of Fort Wyman Road and Walmart and to the south near JCPenney’s and Kmart and residential areas as well along Bridge School Road and Martin Springs Drive.\n“We had lightning strike on a line that feeds two of our substations,” Bourne said. The two substations affected are along Fort Wyman Road and Bridge School Road.\n“The crews did an excellent job,” Bourne said. “They went out there, looked at lines to make sure there was no additional damage.”\nThe outage near Fort Wyman Road likely caused the traffic signal at the Walmart entrance on U.S. Highway 63 in Rolla to not work properly, which led to an accident there shortly after 5 p.m.\nAccording to a Rolla Police Department report, the accident involved a 2006 Toyota Sienna driven by Linda C. Hardwick, 53, of Rolla, and a 2006 Chrysler Sebring driven by Caresse Chick, 28, of Rolla.\nThe Toyota was traveling north on Highway 63 and the Chrysler was stopped, facing east at the entrance to Walmart. The storm disabled the traffic lights at the intersection and there was heavy rain.\nThe police stated the Chrysler did not observe the Toyota and attempted to travel east across Highway 63 when the Toyota collided with the Chrysler, causing moderate damage to both vehicles.\nChick sustained injuries that were apparently not serious and was transported by EMS for treatment. No other injuries were reported.\nIntercounty Electric Cooperative, which services areas in parts of Phelps, Dent, Texas and other surrounding counties reported more than 1,800 outages in its service areas.\nCarla Gorman, dispatcher for the co-op, said the first outages were reported around 5:30 p.m. and “everybody was back on by 3 a.m.” She said the outages were due to rain, lightning and high winds.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This shower is listed among the annual major showers as its ZHR (Zenith Hourly Rate) averages ten shower members per hour. Actual rates can be quite variable. I have seen years when it has reached 25 per hour and others when the shower is nearly non-existent. 2011 is a favorable year to try and view them as the waning crescent moon will not interfere much with observations.\nThe Ursids are particles shed from comet 8P/Tuttle. The Earth passes through the debris field of comet 8P Tuttle from December 18 through the 24th. We are situated closest to the center of the comet’s orbit on December 23rd; therefore the Ursids will be most active on this date. Particles from comet 8P/Tuttle strike the Earth at a perpendicular angle far above (north) the ecliptic. As seen from the Earth’s surface these meteors will appear to shoot forth from an area of the sky (the radiant) located near the bowl of the “Little Dipper”, also known as the constellation of Ursa Minor. The bright orange star Kochab (Beta Ursae Minoris) is a good guide to the Ursid radiant. Kochab is a circumpolar (never sets) star for all locations north of latitude 15 north. Therefore from this portion of the Earth, the radiant is in the sky all night long and Ursid activity may be seen at any time of night. For northern tropical areas the radiant is located low in the north during the evening hours. During the morning hours the radiant slowly rises and reaches the same altitude of nearby Polaris (Alpha Ursae Minoris) near 0300 local standard time. The best time to view Ursid activity from anywhere is during the last hour before dawn when the radiant lies highest above the horizon in a dark sky. Due to the high northern declination (celestial latitude), this shower is not visible to observers located south of the equator.\nSince the Ursids strike the Earth at a perpendicular angle they will appear to travel slower than the better known Perseids of August or Leonids of November. Entering the atmosphere at 33 kilometers per second, this shower has velocities comparable to the recent Geminid shower. Most of the Ursid meteors are faint therefore it is important to observe from rural areas away from city lights. Since the radiant lies in the northern half of the sky it would be best to face this general direction to see the most activity. There is no need to stare directly at the radiant, rather it is advised simply to place the radiant somewhere within your field of view so that it will to easy to trace which meteors line up with Kochab (Ursids) and those that don’t (non-Ursids or sporadics). There are two other areas of minor activity active during the Ursids. The antihelion radiant lies in central Gemini and will produce 2-3 slow meteors per hour. While facing north these meteors would enter your field of view from the upper right during the evening hours, from above and behind you near midnight, and from the upper left during the morning hours. The December Leonis Minorid radiant will produce swift meteors from eastern Leo Minor that are only seen from the northeast during the morning hours. If viewing from dark skies one should also be able to count 10-15 sporadic (random) meteors per hour.\nIf you would like to contribute more to our knowledge of the Ursids, then I invite you to get serious about meteor observing and to make an hourly count of the activity you witness. Other more detailed projects include the estimating the magnitude, velocity, and color of each meteor. Others also note whether there was a persistent train after the meteor has vanished. Meteor watching can be both fun and scientifically useful endeavor. To be scientifically useful you must share your data with an active meteor organization such as the AMS. We accept data from observers with all levels of experience. Our data is published in our quarterly newsletter “Meteor Trails”. Blank data forms are available for downloading at the visual section of this web site. Clear Skies!\nMy daughter and I observed a very large meteor on Friday the 23rd around 5:30 in Portland, Oregon. It was notable for several reasons. It was very large and bright. We viewed it from the highway (we were driving north) and it was plainly visible between multiple street lights and headlights in a sky that was not yet completely dark. It seemed to fall straight down, was notably green in color, moved slowly compared to the Perseides we’ve seen multiple times, persisted longer than a second and broke into small pieces at the end. The tail was much wider than anything I’ve every seen before. It was truly stunning. I didn’t even know about the Ursids until I started searching for other observations. Perhaps this was just coincidental timing, but it seems like we should tell someone about it.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The earlier Oct. 19 file was set final 12 months in 2022 for 86-degree warmth. On Thursday, the temperature there was marked at 88 levels.\nAlong with record-breaking most highs, three Bay Space places had record-breaking excessive minimal temperatures for Oct. 19, in keeping with NWS. San Rafael solely cooled to 61 levels on Thursday, beating a 1979 file which was set at 60 levels. Richmond’s minimal temperature was 62 levels, trumping the 2015 file of 61 levels. SFO Airport noticed the minimal temperature solely dip to 63 levels for the file, the place the earlier file was 61 levels in 2014.\n“A dome of excessive strain” over the Bay Space was the reason for the excessive warmth, defined KRON4 Meteorologist Kyla Grogan.\nThe Warmth Advisory issued Thursday has expired, and aid is already on the best way Friday. “By the weekend temperatures will slip beneath seasonal averages,” Grogan stated.\n“There’s even a small likelihood of a bathe on Sunday bringing additional cooling,” she added.\nTake a look at KRON’4s Climate Middle for extra data on the most recent forecast.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It touched down at approximately 11:45 am and was on the ground, according to witnesses, for about five minutes before dissipating. It was a stunning and ominous site, witnessed by area residents who had a clear and unobstructed view for the full life-cycle of the twister.\nThe tornado churned through a shallow bay area of Strawberry Channel, swirling across a field of reeds before moving ashore and passing over a small peninsula to the west of Whites Point Road. As it moved onto land, the tornado narrowly missed striking a trailer that was parked at a camp site near the shore; fortunately it passed near to – but without – striking the vehicle, and no damage was done. It was captured in photographs and on video by area residents who witnessed the touchdown. Several photos and videos were captured from the shoreline in town, looking eastward from the Boyle and Harbour Vue marinas. The tornado was narrow, white, and dart-like, classic in appearance.

In this blog, the Munster home insurance experts at Gutierrez Family Agency will give you a history lesson on some of the most common extreme weather scenarios in Indiana, to give you a better idea of how (and why) you should protect your home from weather damage.\nIndiana is right on the edge of America’s “Tornado Alley,” an area that, because of conflicting warm and cool weather systems, has a higher likelihood for tornado activity. While Indiana may not have the highest tornado likelihood of US states (it ranks 16th amongst US states in tornado frequency), it certainly has its fair share of terrible twisters that can cause a lot of home and environmental damage.\nThe Tri-State Tornado of 1925 is the most deadly twister in the history of Indiana, and the record holder for the largest tornado track at a miraculous distance of 219 miles. This tornado was incredibly fast, travelling at an average rate of 62 miles per hour with a top speed of 73 miles per hour. This tornado destroyed entire cities across Missouri, Indiana, and Illinois, and was described by onlookers as “about a mile wide.”\nIf you’ve spent anytime in Indiana in the winter, you know just how brutal the blizzards can be. While not every snowstorm is one to write home about, severe snowstorms can cause property damage by breaking tree branches, busting roofing shingles, creating roofing leaks and water damage, and freezing pipes and other plumbing fixtures.\nThere have been many blizzards in the history of Indiana, but none compare to the Chicago Blizzard of 1967 that made its way into the west side of the state. The blizzard brought about heavy winds, limited visibility, and a whopping 23 inches of snow in a single day. Now that’s a snowstorm.\nSevere Thunderstorms (and Flooding)\nIndiana ranks 26th out of 50 states in terms of average annual precipitation. But don’t let that stat fool you—when it rains in Indiana, it pours. With over 40 inches of rain per year, a close proximity to the Mississippi River, and a high likelihood for thunderstorms, Indiana has had its fair share of extreme rainstorms where flooding is a natural byproduct.\nTake The Great Flood of 1913 for example. Occurring between March 23 and 26, this flood caused over $330 million in damage and left seven percent of Indiana’s population homeless. All it took was some excess Mississippi River runoff and extreme rainfall to cause damage across Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Vermont, and (*takes a breath*) Virginia. This storm will forever go down as one of the worst natural disasters in American history.\nProtect Your Home From Disaster\nIndiana isn’t necessarily a hotbed for extreme weather or natural disasters, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t protect your home from the bevy of damage that inclement weather can cause.\nThat’s where Gutierrez Family Agency can help. Equip yourself with high-end home insurance, and take advantage of our agency’s seasoned professionals to protect your home, your family, and the things that matter the most to you.

No one could get past really - but some cars were still trying.\n\"There's a lot of traffic everywhere, queues backed up and people doing U-turns to avoid floodwater.\"\nMetService said this morning's torrential downpour in Rosedale was the result of a slow-moving storm cell, and warned today's thunderstorms were likely to bring far higher rain in localised pockets than a fast-moving storm would.\nAuckland Transport had to close a section of Caribbean Dr just before 10am between Barbados Dr and Upper Harbour Highway because of flooding.\nThe transport agency said the worst of the flooding had eased on the Upper Harbour Highway just after 10am and backlog was now cleared.\nA large thunderstorm cell was detected near Auckland City and the North Shore at 9.22am, moving northwest.\nThe storms were expected to lie near Auckland up to North Harbour by 9.52am.\nPeople are warned the severe thunderstorms were likely to deluge the region.\nAll regions from Northland to northern Manawatu across to the Tararua District are likely to be worst affected by torrential downpours and small hail.\nThe violent downpours could put areas under threat of flash flooding, slips and hazardous driving conditions.\nAlready flash flooding has hit Auckland's North Shore where people needed to be rescued from trapped in floodwaters. Serious flooding is also hitting eastern suburbs.\nOsmond said firefighters had been called to help a motorist who was trapped in floodwaters on Carribean Dr in Unsworth Heights. Several houses had also been flooded after a sudden downpour on the North Shore in the past hour.\nMetService says the combination of daytime heating, humidity and local wind convergence is expected to bring unstable conditions to much of the island today.\nThe country struggled for relief in the muggy weather overnight when temperatures remained uncomfortably high.\nAnd although it's normal for nights to be warm in summer, MetService says average overnight temperatures are warmer than average.\nAuckland has stayed warmer than 15C since January 1 as the average overnight temperature hitting 18.6C. Today's flash flooding and violent thunderstorm warning comes as the city experienced its highest dew point temperature of summer so far.\nNiwa said the dew point, which is a measure of humidity, hit 22C, was because of the sub-tropical northerly air flow and warm seas. It's deemed uncomfortable when it goes higher than 18C.\nWellington too is fighting balmy conditions and average overnight lows of 16.1C, well above the usual 14.5C.\nEven Christchurch has kept above 15C for the past six days, and an average minimum temperature about 2C above usual.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Most people walking on the streets\ndon’t wear masks.\nA: The president of the China Medical Association describes air pollution as\n“the biggest health problem in China.”\nThe IARC and The WHO designated particle 2.5 micron and smaller to be the deadliest form of\nair pollution. Most people living in China know that air pollution is unhealthy, but are unaware\nof the seriousness of the situation.\nQ: How do I know that the idMASK actually works? Does it work better than other masks?\nA: The idMASK was created specifically for air pollution. We were not satisfied with any other\nmask on the market.\n•Unlike other dust masks or surgical masks, the idMASK creates an air-tight seal on your face, eliminating the leakage of polluted air\nfrom the sides of the mask.\n•The imported idFILTERS have an electrostatic charge, meaning they attract and capture the tiny particle that would otherwise be inhaled.\nYou can see the filters turning grey from all the particles in as little as hours on a heavily\npolluted day. Try it for yourself.\nQ: We know that pollution causes problems for the elderly and children, but are they that much\nof a threat to healthy adults?\nA: Air pollution immediately effects the elderly, children, and those with breathing problems.\nAlthough long-term effects have not been adequately studied, there is much evidence linking air\npollution to future respiratory problems and a variety of cancers. When inhaled, PM2.5 and smaller\nparticles never leave your body. That’s pretty scary!\nQ: What are PM2.5’s? What do they consist of?\nA: When health organizations mention PM2.5’s, they are referring to not just particles that are 2.5 microns but all the\nsmaller particles as well. These particle are so small that they can be suspended in the air. They are made up of soot, asbestos, cement,\nmetals, mold, bacterial, engine emissions, pesticides, and much more.\nQ: How long do the filters last? Can we clean the mask when it gets dirty?\nA: idFILTERS should be changed when they turn grey. As the particles accumulate the\nelectrostatic charge diminishes, so change them out every 3-7 days. During heavy pollution,\nchange the filters daily as they will turn grey in hours.\nThe mask itself is not only washable, it’s dishwasher safe.\nModern day air pollution poses serious problems to your health. According to the China Medical\nAssociation, lung cancers are 2-3 times more prevalent in the cities than the countryside,\nand air pollution is becoming“the biggest health problem in China.” While the contents in polluted air varies, heavy\nindustries as well as everyday carbon emissions from vehicles\nThe Effects of Air Pollution on Your BodyModern day air pollution poses serious problems to your\nhealth. According to the China Medical Association, lung cancers are 2-3 times more prevalent in the cities than the countryside, and air pollution is becoming\n“the biggest health problem in China.”\nWhile the contents in polluted air varies, heavy industries as well as everyday carbon emissions\nfrom vehicles all contribute to the pollutants we breathe.\nCoal burning power plants, steel factories, and cement factories are the primary sources of air\npollution. In 2000, China’s coal consumption was 1.4 billion tons. In 2012, that amount soared by 152% at around\n3.5 billion tons, or one half of all global consumption. These coal power plants, steel factories, and cement factories produce 90%\nof sulfur dioxide discharge and 70% of nitrogen dioxide discharge and smoke.\nAccording to the World Health Organization (WHO) and The International Agency for Research on\nCancer (IARC), Particulate Matter are the deadliest component in polluted air. They are\ndesignated as Group 1 Carcinogen. Fine particulates are suspended in the air, and when inhaled,\npenetrate deep into the lungs and bloodstreams unfiltered causing:\n-Permanent DNA mutations\nParticle Matter of 40 microns is the smallest the human eye can see. Particles this size can\nusually be filtered by the hair and mucus in the nose, but the dangers lie in particles smaller\nthan 10 microns or PM 10.\nPM 10 - Particles 10 microns or smaller can penetrate into the deepest part of the lungs,\nthe bronchioles or alveoli, causing:\nPM 2.5 - When suspended in the air, these particles reduce visibility and cause the air to\nappear hazy. PM 2.5 can penetrate the gas exchange regions of the lung affecting other organs\nand the circulatory system causing:\n-High Plaque Deposits in the Arteries\n-Atherosclerosis (Hardening of Arteries)\n-Exposure of only 5 ug/m3 a year is linked to 13% increase in Heart Attack\nDuring the late winter/ spring winds the following particles were found in the dust storms\nPM 0.1 - Particles emitted from modern diesel engines are typically the size of 0.1 microns.\nThese particles pass through cell membranes into organs including the brain, they have been known\nto cause brain damage similar to Alzheimer’s Disease.\nTips and Advice\nSince no one can completely avoid air pollution, it is important to limit exposure whenever possible.\nThe buildup of fine particles can cause problems both now and in the future.

Of Spain's 50 provinces 43 were put on alert for exceptionally high temperatures, with the mercury widely topping 40C, and some places experiencing temperatures as high as 44C by the 1st. The intense heat has also increased the potential for forest fires; woodlands, within a large area, are considered at extreme risk of catching alight. The heat-wave is expected to spread and persist for much of Europe over the coming days. Meanwhile, in the US mid-west heavy rains have exacerbated already serious floods. Numerous states have been affected, and are expecting further rain. The city of St Louis, in Missouri, had more than 33 cm of rain in June, 22 cm more than the monthly average. Indiana, in the Great Lakes region, has also been hit hard, with $300m worth of crop damage having already occurred before another deluge of rain happened over the weekend. Finally, the province of Manitoba had severe thunderstorms developing during the afternoon, with a particularly potent cell striking the town of Roseisle, about 70 miles south-west of Winnipeg. Hailstones in Roseisle were reported to be measuring up to the size of tennis balls, and they damaged cars and destroyed crops. These hailstones were driven in on a 60 mph wind, worsening the potential for damage.\nStorms have swept across northern England in the wake of what for many places was the hottest July day on record in the UK the 1st). Up to 40,000 properties in the north-east were left without power after the violent storms struck. Some properties have been damaged by lightning and vehicles were hit by golf ball-sized hailstones. 36.7C at Heathrow was, according to the Met Office, the highest UK temperature on record. Delays were mounting for commuters on National Rail lines as soaring temperatures threatened to buckle the rails. \"Extremely high temperatures are forecast for today and because of this Network Rail will be introducing speed restrictions on various parts of the network, throughout the day,\" the organization said on its website.\nIn the Netherlands, Maastricht set a new national record for July of 38.2C, previously 37.1C in 2006 in Westdorpe on the 2nd.\nGermany's all-time highest temperature record was broken today with 40.3C in Bavaria on the 5th.\nThousands of teenage scouts and guides were evacuated from a camp in eastern France after a violent storm overnight (18th). The storm hit the camp organized by the Scouts and Guides France in the city of Strasbourg. About 15,000 people were evacuated as authorities issued a warning of heavy winds. Rescue workers said 35 people suffered \"sprains, fractures or dislocations\", but added there were no serious injuries. Organizers received a warning from authorities half an hour before the storm hit at 02:00 (00:00 GMT), giving them time to move the scouts and guides to shelter in a nearby arena. Images published by the newspaper L'Alsace showed extensive damage to the site and young people walking in thermal blankets. The teenagers, from scout and guide associations around Europe, were allowed to return to the site on Saturday morning. There were no reports of significant damage elsewhere in the Alsace region after the storm.\nIn a state plagued by drought, California residents are advised to play it safe with fireworks this Fourth of July. In some areas, legal fireworks are banned as local officials work to prevent accidental fires caused by the dazzling pyrotechnics. While cities like Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego will continue their annual fireworks as planned, Cupertino, California, canceled their Independence Day display due to drought concerns. A suburb of San Jose, California, Cupertino sits in an area of extreme drought according to the U.S. Drought Monitor. Due to the volume of water needed to treat the fields at Cupertino High School, the home for the fireworks, the school declined to host this year's event. The city said more than 100,000 gallons of water are needed to treat the fields to prevent damage to the facility.\nIce caves popular with hikers north-east of Seattle partially collapsed on the 6th, killing one person and leaving at least four others injured, officials said. The collapse came after authorities warned that the caves were especially dangerous because of warming temperatures. The person who died remained buried under the debris at the Big Four Ice Caves east of Verlot, Snohomish County sheriff's spokeswoman Shari Ireton said late on Monday night. The recovery effort was suspended at nightfall. The ice caves have been closed until further notice. The US forest service warned hikers in May that the ice caves were in their 'most dangerous state' due to unseasonably warm weather. The caves about 70 miles north-east of Seattle are a popular hiking destination. Temperatures in the area on Monday reportedly were in the 80s (F).\nTorrential rain has caused severe flooding in Aberdeen on the 7th. Many streets were left under deep water after the downpour - accompanied by thunder - struck in the afternoon. Areas affected included Polmuir Road, Market Street, the Hardgate, Portree Avenue, Froghall Road and Golf Road. The council was delivering sandbags. Fire crews dealt with incidents including a nursery basement flooding as more than half Aberdeen's expected July rain fell in just a few hours. A yellow \"be aware\" weather warning for heavy showers had been issued earlier by the Met Office. Heavy rain has also caused flooding in parts of County Londonderry. The Bogside, Creggan, Foyle Road and Strand Road areas were among the worst affected parts of Derry, according to Transport NI.\nStorms and heavy downpours inundated areas from the southern Plains to the Ohio Valley (7th-8th) on Tuesday and Wednesday, resulting in flash flooding, impassable roadways and numerous water rescues. Flash flood emergencies were declared in three countries in Missouri as creeks and streams overflowed their banks. The Missouri Department of Transportation temporarily closed Highway 165 amid the heavy rain. Flooding was so widespread in Cassville, Missouri, that the Barry County Sheriff sent out an alert Tuesday that the entire town was closed. Many roads were covered with water throughout the town. By Wednesday morning, most roadways were back open and businesses resumed operation. Abilene, Texas, broke their all-time record for the highest daily rainfall total with 8.26 inches of on Tuesday. A total of 9.13 inches of rain fell across Brady, Texas, causing travel problems throughout the area. Local law enforcement reported several cars were swept away on Highway 377 early Wednesday morning.\nStrong storms produced damaging winds, downpours and possibly isolated tornadoes in portions of the Northeast USA on Thursday (9th). An elementary school in Berks County, Pennsylvania, was heavily damaged as the result of one storm that moved through the region early Thursday evening. Thousands of people were without power as a result of the storms that plowed into the Mid-Atlantic states Thursday afternoon and evening. Before trekking off the East Coast, storms created lengthy flight delays at Philadelphia and New York area airports.\nAirports were closed across parts of Indonesia due to a volcanic ash cloud from the eruption of Mount Ruang leaving thousands of international travelers stranded. Bali holidaymakers were among the worst affected, with Jetstar, Virgin Australia and Garuda Indonesia cancelling flights to and from Denpasar airport. The cancellations, now in the third consecutive day, follow on from cancellations across the first few days of July after Mount Raung erupted on 2 July.\nTyphoon Chan-Hom made landfall early in the day in Zhujiajian Township in the island city of Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province, as a category 1 typhoon before being downgraded to a tropical storm on 12 Jul. Chan-Hom is decreasing intensity as it moves northeast. Some 1.9 million people in nine cities were affected by the storm, including more than 1.1 million evacuated as a precaution. No casualties are reported.\nRecent snowfall across parts of southeast Queensland has been called the most significant snowfall across the region in 30 years (16th). While Australia's Bureau of Meteorology has yet to confirm any records from the recent snowfall, local residents of Stanthorpe, Queensland have claimed it to be the biggest snowfall since 1984. While is not uncommon for their to be snowflakes or a very minor accumulation of snowfall in this area, the amount of snow has not been seen for quite some time. The last significant snowfall in this area was 5 cm in 2007, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.\nA lightning strike has killed seven people, including four children, in a rural part of central Mexico, authorities have said (24th). The Guanajuato state Department of Public Safety reported two others were injured by the strike on Friday afternoon, though their lives were not in danger. The incident took place in farming country near the towns of Mesa Cuata and El Terrero, about 40 km from the city of Queretaro.\nDuring July 22-28, Karachi, Pakistan, received 48 mm of rain. That's more rain than the city saw during the entire monsoon seasons of 2012, 2013 and 2014. In Bhuj, India, more than 432 mm of rain were measured from Monday into Tuesday. The average yearly total is 374. In Badin, Pakistan, rainfall from Monday into Tuesday totalled 135 mm which is equal to the normal rainfall for the entire month of July.\nJim G.

No injuries were reported. There were also two skier-triggered avalanches Saturday on Richmond Ridge, off the back of Aspen Mountain, on east aspects at about 10,000 feet. The ridge apparently proved itself a worthy classroom for Aspen Mountain Rescue’s annual avalanche workshop, which took place there Saturday.\nIncidently, local backcountry advocacy group Powder to the People will host a midseason avalanche update on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. in the Rio Grande meeting room, featuring local avalanche forecaster Brian McCall.\nMonday’s avalanche center report advises: “The avalanche danger will remain considerable for today. Use extra caution around steep rolls and terrain traps. In treeline and above treeline terrain, be leery of previously wind-loaded areas that may be disguised by the new snow. Don’t be blinded by seemingly well-bonded new snow layers ” our areas of most concern now are buried deeper in the snowpack ” investigate carefully.”\nMeanwhile, frigid temperatures that swept in on the heels of the fresh snow may discourage venturing into the backcountry ” or even out the front door ” for the next day or two.\nSaturday’s relatively balmy temperatures, with a high in the 20s, plummeted overnight; Sunday’s high was 11 degrees. Sunday night’s low was minus 18, according to the National Weather Service.\nLocal slopes were boasting 2 to 3 inches of new snow over the past 24 hours, according to Monday’s 5:30 a.m. snow report from the Aspen Skiing Co.

Morrison R(S)\nGreen Flash at Sunset\nThe green flash is a phenomenon that occurs during a sunset, where a bright green streak of light can be seen just as the sun dips below the horizon. It is a highly elusive and elusive sight that many people wait patiently to see, but not all are fortunate enough to catch a glimpse of it.\nThe green flash is caused by the refraction of light as it passes through the Earth's atmosphere. As the sun sets, the light has to travel through more layers of the atmosphere, causing it to bend and scatter. The green light is the last color of the spectrum to be visible before the sun disappears, and this brief flash of green light is what we see as the green flash.\nThe elusiveness of the green flash is what makes it so special and exciting for people to see. It is often only visible for a few seconds, and only under specific conditions such as clear skies, low humidity, and a flat horizon. Many people will wait for hours at the beach, or on high vantage points, in hopes of catching a glimpse of the elusive green flash. However, not everyone is fortunate enough to see it, and some may even go their entire lives without ever seeing it.\nMany people believe that the green flash is a myth, and that it does not exist. They argue that it is impossible for the sun to change color in such a brief period of time, and that it is just an optical illusion. However, scientists and meteorologists have been able to prove that the green flash is a real phenomenon, and that it can be observed and studied under the right conditions.\nIn conclusion, the green flash is a rare and elusive phenomenon that occurs during a sunset. It is caused by the refraction of light as it passes through the Earth's atmosphere, and is only visible for a few seconds under specific conditions. Despite its elusiveness, many people wait patiently to see the green flash, and for some, it becomes a lifelong quest. However, not everyone is fortunate enough to see it, and some may even think that it does not exist.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Local authorities also highlighted the considerable scale of the flooding in Bosanska Krupa, where almost 800 buildings were submerged.\nIn central Afghanistan, heavy rains have caused tragic flooding, resulting in the deaths of six people and the destruction of over a hundred homes.

The Earth revolves around the Sun once each year and spins on its axis of rotation once each day. The North Pole is tilted towards the Sun and the Sun’s rays strike the Northern Hemisphere more directly in summer.\nWhat is the positional relationship of the Sun and Earth at each season?\nEarth’s tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun’s most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it’s summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it’s winter in the Northern Hemisphere.\nHow do the relationships between the Earth and the Sun affect climate?\nThe Earth’s climate system depends entirely on the Sun for its energy. Solar radiation warms the atmosphere and is fundamental to atmospheric composition, while the distribution of solar heating across the planet produces global wind patterns and contributes to the formation of clouds, storms, and rainfall.\nHow do the relationships between the Earth and the sun affect climate?\nWhat are the relationships between Earth and the rest of the universe?\nOur Earth orbits the Sun in our Solar System. Our Sun is one star among the billions in the Milky Way Galaxy. Our Milky Way Galaxy is one among the billions of galaxies in our Universe. You are unique in the Universe!\nWhat factors in Earth’s relationship to the Sun make life on Earth possible?\nNothing is more important to us on Earth than the Sun. Without the Sun’s heat and light, the Earth would be a lifeless ball of ice-coated rock. The Sun warms our seas, stirs our atmosphere, generates our weather patterns, and gives energy to the growing green plants that provide the food and oxygen for life on Earth.\nHow does the Earth Sun relationship affect climate?\nHow is the Earth’s relationship to the sun related?\nEarth-Sun Relationships It is the earth’s relationship to the sun, and the amount of light it receives, that is responsible for the seasons and biodiversity. The amount of sun a region receives depends on the tilt of the earth’s axis and not its distance from the sun.\nHow is the Sun important to the Earth?\nThe sun has extremely important influences on our planet: It drives weather, ocean currents, seasons, and climate, and makes plant life possible through photosynthesis. Students use everyday items to build a solar eclipse viewer. They use it to examine the sun’s corona and storms from the sun, such as solar flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs).\nWhy is the Sun important in the Milky Way?\nThe sun is an ordinary star, one of about 100 billion in our galaxy, the Milky Way. The sun has extremely important influences on our planet: It drives weather, ocean currents, seasons, and climate, and makes plant life possible through photosynthesis.\nHow many days does it take to orbit around the Sun?\nFirst, some basic vocabulary…First, some basic vocabulary… RevolutionRevolution –– one ORBITone ORBIT, or trip around the, or trip around the Sun.

A high surf warning remained in place for Southern California into Saturday night with waves 15 to 20 feet, and local sets reaching 25 feet.\nThe rain is forecast to start Friday morning in the northwest and is expected to reach the Bay Area by the afternoon. It could impact evening travel around San Francisco. The storm also comes with wind, especially near the coast, where gusts could reach 50 mph Friday.\nSanta Cruz Fire Department officials issued an urgent advisory on Thursday, saying, “The big surf we have been talking about is here! Please help us keep you and our teams safe!”\nThe Southern California city closed Santa Cruz Wharf, along with Main Beach and Cowell Beach. Low-lying areas along West Cliff had been flooding, with debris “crashing on shore with big waves,” officials said.\nWaves near Santa Cruz were expected to be 25 to 30 feet, the National Weather Service said. The service warned of rip currents, storm surges and “sneaker” waves in the area.\n“We urge everyone to remain INDOORS and away from the coastline for your safety,” the Santa Cruz Fire Department said on social media on Thursday.\nIn Ventura County, where a wave sent eight to the hospital, some public beaches were closed. The city of Oxnard said it had closed its beaches through Sunday.\nFire officials in the county spent Thursday night using heavy equipment and bulldozers to construct a berm along the beaches to guard against high surf.\n“The finished berm is about seven feet high and about a mile in length, running from San Pedro St. down to Greenock Lane,” a spokesperson said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The suns — one fuzzy and orange, the other a crisp yellow orb — appeared side-by-side, one slightly higher than the other.\nWhat’s going on? Life’s Little Mysteries, a sister site to Space.com, asked Jim Kaler, the University of Illinois astronomer who squelched the excitement over the aforementioned exploding Betelgeuse and who has written books on the day and night sky. The double sun image is an effect of optical refraction, Kaler said, but it’s a “pretty darn rare” one, and one not fully explained by science.\n“I doubt it’s been computer modeled,” he said. “There must have been some blob of atmosphere somewhere that caused this truly spectacular phenomenon, which in a sense is a mirage.” [Amazing Sun Photos From Space]\nHe goes on to state that the double or multiple image phenomena are produced by abnormal refraction, but that “it remains extraordinary that the images of the sun and moon were sharp and of the same size as the real sun and moon.”\n“This is not a common optical phenomenon that we’re seeing here,” said Grant Perry, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Wisconsin Cooperative Institute for Satellite and Meteorological Studies. “I’m asking myself if this is an artifact of the lens, but if that were the case — if it’s reflections of the lens elements — then the images would move in relation to each other as the camera moves,” Perry said. “But that doesn’t happen.”\nIn terms of an optical explanation, he said, “You would have to assume it is particles of ice or something in the atmosphere aligned in such a way that they would refract the sunlight at that very small angle, but only in one direction. It would require some fairly peculiar characteristics.”\nSeveral related atmospheric optical effects are fully explained by science. Sun dogs, sunset mirages, sun pillars and sun halos are all relatively common and well understood. But not this effect.\n“It’s very intriguing,” said Kaler.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

I began writing to my customers about El Nino back in December. Then this spring the meteorologic community raised the likelihood of an El Nino event happening this fall to 70% and one setting in during late 4Q at 80%. El Nino conditions are not bullish in the Midwest and Northeast, but can be in the Southeast. So I don’t just search for the bulls, which to be blunt are easier to sell gallons against. I enjoy being correct far too much for that and I also enjoy helping you make as much money as possible for your businesses and families.\nNow, let’s fast forward to the ‘news’ or general thinking of today, the 30th of July.\nThe Headline: El Nino Indicators Ease.\nThe Quote Part I: “While the chance of an El Niño in 2014 has clearly eased, warmer-than-average waters persist in parts of the tropical Pacific, and the (slight) majority of climate models suggest El Niño remains likely for spring. Hence the establishment of El Niño before year’s end cannot be ruled out. If an El Niño were to occur, it is increasingly unlikely to be a strong event. Given the current observations and the climate model outlooks, the Bureau’s ENSO Tracker has shifted to El Niño WATCH status. This means the chance of El Niño developing in 2014 is approximately 50%, which remains significant at double the normal likelihood of an event.”\nThe Quote Part II (from theweathernetwork.com): “What’s going on this year, at least so far, is that the ocean surface temperatures are behaving roughly the way they should for a developing El Niño. Temperatures are warming up in the eastern and central regions of the equatorial Pacific. Specifically, the temperatures in the central Pacific (what forecasters call the Niño-3.4 region) have been about half a degree above normal, which is one of the criteria for declaring that El Niño conditions are present (but not that the El Niño is in full-swing). That’s only one condition, though. Since the atmosphere plays a big part in this, it has to follow suit with the ocean temperatures, or the whole thing breaks down. So far, the atmosphere is still behaving like it does under neutral conditions. According to Emily Becker, of Climate.gov, “the wind patterns are roughly average over the tropical Pacific, with some slight weakening of the trade winds toward the end of the month.”\nThe Takeaway: This is a pretty dramatic drop in confidence from earlier predictions and the atmosphere is to blame. The first quote is the Australian Meteorology Division and they are as keen or more so as it relates to El Nino events, as their country is typically decimated by drought and heat during such periods. The biggest line that drew my attention was the one I put in bold and underlined: “…remains likely for spring.” This El Nino, once feared to be a monster, has been downgraded for the past six weeks to an ‘if it happens, it will be a weak one’ to now possibly getting pushed out to Spring of 2015,, which can also mean not happening at all. The atmospheric winds have not played their part and are nowhere in sight.\nSo what does that mean for the propane industry?\nWe continue to see the ridges and troughs in the weather pattern, the cutoff low pressure systems in the northwest which are bringing warm temps along the Pacific region all the way to Alaska, like we saw last winter. And just like last winter, ridging in the west allows colder air from Canada and the Arctic to swoop down into the central, eastern and southeastern as we saw last winter. Some dubbed it the ‘Polar Vortex’ and I admit to using the term, but it’s really the Polar Jet Stream that is to blame, as the ridging in the extreme northwest causes the polar jet to go very far to the north..and what goes up must come down and it falls down the back side of the ridge with a vengeance, emptying the Arctic onto the fine people in the eastern two-thirds of the United States.\nThat has continued this spring and summer and has led to the coldest July on record for much of the Midwest (graphic below from Steven Goddard’s Blog)\nThat my friends, is a YO! Weather patterns are just that…patterns. They do similar things until some other force or factor changes atmospheric conditions. El Nino would do that and cut off the ridging and keep the Polar Jet in the Polar regions…but if El Nino doesn’t happen…or doesn’t happen until the spring, then all bets are off for a mild winter in the Midwest and Northeast. This information we received yesterday (from mdus.com) supports such modeling:\nFor you regular readers, you will remember that I have been very bullish 4Q14, mostly due to the above normal (to possibly well above normal) grain drying I expect to take place. I was also bearish on 1Q15, due to my thoughts on the El Nino prediction and what it has typically meant. I am no longer bearish 1Q15. I would NOT want to be short in January whatsoever. I also came across something today in my readings that suggests El Nino effects can vary depending on exactly where the warmer Pacific pockets of water are…there is an El Nino ‘Modoki’ effect, which is a Japanese term for ‘almost, but not quite’. This link shows you that the Modoki effect may be in play…which means the traditional El Nino that dominates all-weather patterns is not so tough and other weather patterns can persist.\nThe thought in our office is that 4Q14 is going to be a big mess all over again, similar to last year. Long lines at the terminals, terminal outages, possible allocation earlier in the season…and we’re beginning to think the actual winter may be another mess, too.\nHere is the last graphic for the day which comes from Freese-Notis; the percentage of the corn crop by state that is now Good to Excellent…and it’s impressive!\nWhere before I have said do not be short 4Q14, I am now extending that thought to January 2015, at the least and maybe the first half of February. The memories from last year are fresh and still painful…mitigate your risks as much as possible. Start having discussions on alternative sources of supply.\nFor many of you, we are not yet set up to do business together. If that is the case, go back to the email I sent that brought you to this link and fill out the paperwork and get it into our offices so that we can help bring you supply from our vast array of supply points, which includes Scio, OH this winter, where it wasn’t really in play last winter.\nI take great satisfaction in helping so many people last year arrive at supply point solutions that were never before in their sights, but still getting people the product to see them through the winter. It’s one of my favorite things about my job and I view it as a daily puzzle to solve. As the line from an old movie goes, ‘Help me to help you’. Filling out the application does not obligate you to do business with us…but it at least allows us the opportunity to act quickly if the time arises. That, and during the insanity of last January and February, we required all new customers (those who were sending in their credit apps at that time) to prepay 100% for the gallons, as did most everyone in the industry. That was not a total requirement for those who had established a line of credit prior to the stuff hitting the fan.\nWhat can it hurt?\nAs always, thanks for reading.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

EU Air Quality Directives (in particular Directive 2008/50/EC on ambient air quality and cleaner air for Europe) require since 2005 limits for particulate matter (PM10) as these limits are s still being exceeded in a large number of cities. Directive 2008/50/EC foresees limits for smaller particulates and in 2010, limits for nitrogen-dioxide (NO2) also became binding. As a result, cities are urgently seeking more effective and efficient means of reducing air pollution. Transport is one of the most complicated and politically sensitive sectors for achieving these reductions, and yet is particularly important to those cities suffering from high particulate and NOx pollution. Although information on the impacts of many single new ‘clean’ technologies is available, the real-life results in combination with sustainable urban transport programmes can be quite different.\nThe 'PARFUM' project sought to bridge the gap between research and development (R&D) results and widespread implementation/market introduction concerning integrated technological/policy solutions for the reduction of air pollution from transport, notably particles and nitrogen oxide (NOx). The project aimed to implement and evaluate a combination of innovative technologies for clean vehicles for city logistics and public transport, integrated with policy and planning approaches. It was tested and evaluated under real-life conditions in two urban areas: Bremen in Germany and Padua in Italy. These results were also compared with data from other cities’ air pollution mitigation programmes. The Netherlands region of Rotterdam would provide input relating to the monitoring principles of a large harbour city with its various transport related emission sources, while other cities with related programmes would be involved through periodic workshops.\nThe general project objectives were met and the results provide a basis for the demonstration of different modelling systems of urban air quality, which were developed by the partner in Rotterdam. Modelling and monitoring showed the contribution of heavy duty vehicles (HDV) to the high levels of concentration of pollution in the main arteries of the city. Although HDV only represent about 10% of the vehicles, their contribution is often about 50 % of the NOx levels. The PARFUM project clearly demonstrated the necessity and potential of tackling emissions from heavy duty vehicles. The challenge is in implementing on large scale what was developed and implemented within the PARFUM project as pilot measures on small scale. Electric public transport can eliminate local emissions from previous high polluting diesel-buses – especially on frequently operated lines. The city of Bremen proved how a low-emission bus fleet (EEV buses) brought down the local pollution level. But, these light trucks with such ambitious emission standards are not widely available as heavy duty vehicles are. In the future, if city authorities will start making use of air emission data and the modelling system for better traffic planning, it will result in long term economic and social benefits by improving public transport and decreasing traffic congestion in the city.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

However, on some occasions when Earth is perfectly aligned, people residing in Canada and polar regions like Finland get a chance to see the stunning northern lights.\nThis is time, aurora borealis was pretty intense and vivid. Last Sept. 15, Expedition 53 crew member Paolo Nespoli captured 711 photographs as the ISS flew over Canada. Thanks to his efforts, even non-astronauts can see just how beautiful the aurora is even from above. The Aurora Borealis is caused by geomagnetic storms initiated by strong solar winds. Apart from strong solar winds, ‘coronal hole’ near the equator of the sun also played a vital role in making the Aurora Borealis visible from the Earth. Astronomers say that ‘coronal hole’ was perfectly aligned with the Earth which made the event breath taking.\nThese stunning solar wind events resulting in colourful lighting can happen any time of the year.

FILE PHOTO – Damage after tornado strikes Bowling Green (Kentucky), U.S.A, December 11, 2021. This still is taken from a social media video. Miguel Lopez/via REUTERS\nCarolyn Cohn, Noor Zainab and Carolyn Hussain\n(Reuters). – The damage caused by tornadoes in parts of the United States will increase the 2021 insurance bill for weather-related claims to $105 billion. Industry experts predicted that premiums will rise due to concerns about climate change, which will lead more severe weather.\nPreliminary estimates show that tornadoes caused damage to homes and businesses across a route of about 200 miles in six states, including the Midwest, South and South.\nThe climate change is causing more “secondary peril,” weather events smaller than hurricanes but that are less predictable. Another secondary danger is the possibility of small or mid-sized localized events, such as hailstorms, winter storms, and wildfires.\nSome insurance professionals say these events pose risk management problems for insurers and eventually lead to higher premiums.\nBarnaby Rugge Price, chairman of Howden Broking Group said that there have been more than $100 billion in catastrophes over the past year.\nHe said, “Clearly, underlying that…something else is happening, of which climate change is the most obvious.”\nGuy Carpenter, the reinsurance broker said there are an average of 1,500 tornadoes each year in the United States. However, only 25 happen in December. The company stated that this month’s tornado cluster was extremely rare, in terms of its intensity, length, and season.\nStudies suggest warming Gulf of Mexico surface temperatures are linked to intense thunderstorm updrafts that can generate tornadoes in the U.S. Southeast’s Dixie Alley, said catastrophe modeling firm Karen Clark & Company (KCC).\nWarmer air in late autumn and early winter create favorable conditions for producing tornadoes, which could elongate the severe weather season over North America, said the reinsurer Guy Carpenter & Co LLC.\nSecondary perils, unlike primary perils such as hurricanes which are most likely to cause major losses, are more unpredictable.\nRugge Price stated they can be difficult to model as there is not enough data. Therefore, it’s more difficult for the sector to evaluate the risks.\nHis words were: “Hurricanes are recorded and we know where they go and what the damage is, but tornadoes…pop up.”\nExperts disagree on whether there is a direct link between climate change, increasing severity and tornadoes. KCC stated that tornadoes are formed in certain atmospheric conditions, and it may be difficult to link specific trends in severe weather with climate change.\nHowever, there has been an increase in secondary perils this year.\nThe global insurance industry suffered losses of $105 billion this year before the storms. This is the fourth highest loss, and without any major weather disaster.\nAlthough Hurricane Ida was most costly natural disaster of 2021, over half of the losses resulted from secondary peril events like winter storm Uri which brought freezing temperatures to Texas.\nAt least one severe annual secondary peril event is the new “norm,” each resulting in more than $10 billion in losses, Swiss Re said.\nThe company stated that natural catastrophes are expected to grow due to increased wealth and urbanization, as well as the impacts of climate change.\nSources in insurance said that more severe events over the past four year have led to an increase in U.S. home and auto insurance costs. Swiss Re stated that rates rose above average for clients who were exposed to secondary perils in the third quarter.\nBrokers said that the insurance premiums would continue increasing and that property owners looking to insure their homes will have higher retentions. These are initial expenses they need to pay before insurance can kick in.\nDave Reasons from Marsh, the U.S. Central Zone Property leader said that “we don’t expect any reduction in tornado coverage.” To keep premiums down, however, Reasons said some clients are willing to take retentions that were tenfold greater than they used to be in the past.\nWe may have discussions regarding the appropriate retentions and the pricing.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Coronal mass ejections (CME) – huge arcs of plasma that erupt from the Sun’s surface – interfered with GPS, and high-frequency radio transmissions, and generated spectacular aurora displays. But, in addition to the sudden intensity of these events, this recent burst of activity has left scientists scratching their heads. The Sun is supposed to be entering its solar minimum, its quietest period during its eleven-year cycle of activity.\nThe last solar maximum peaked in April 2014, and was the quietest maximum recorded in over a century; surprising researchers that predicted that Solar Cycle 24 would break new records in terms of intense activity. But, while this cycle’s maximum still saw a comparatively higher sunspot count than what is being seen now; the two huge sunspots groups that generated the recent flares and CMEs: AR2673, and AR2674 are unusual for a solar minimum. September 6th’s X9.3 flare was more intense than any flare generated during Cycle 24’s maximum.\nThis sudden unpredictability in solar weather, whether it persists or not, could be a major concern when it comes to forecasting major solar flares, and CMEs; due to the potential hazards such storms pose to both our technology, and human health. Whitley’s 2012 ebook, Solar Flares: What You Need to Know, outlines the dangers this poses to human civilization if we’re not properly prepared for a major solar storm.\n- This photograph of the Sun, taken on December 19, 1973, during the third and final manned Skylab mission, shows one of the most spectacular solar flares ever recorded, spanning more than 588,000 kilometers (365,000 miles) across the solar surface.\nSubscribers, to watch the subscriber version of the video, first log in then click on Dreamland Subscriber-Only Video Podcast link.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In its first-full year, it remains to be seen exactly how it works, and what farmers who signed up for the coverage think when the year is finished. However, the company has released some interesting data, starting with rainfall totals and rankings for April rainfall across several Midwestern states.\nAccording to WeatherBill, the data is based on state climatologist reports from Illinois, Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. Wisconsin data is based on an analysis of the Universal Raingauge Dataset by WeatherBill, based on data from the National Climatic Data Center.\nThe state average rainfall reported in Indiana for April 2011 is 9.22 inches, an exceedingly high total for a state that only averages just over 40 inches of rainfall equivalent per year.\nAccording to Indiana state climatology data, it was the rainiest April since 1895. If you remember that one- let us know- we've got a scoop!\nThe situation is similar in surrounding states, although Indiana recorded the highest state average total. In Illinois, state climatologists report 7.45 inches as the statewide average, also the rainiest April since 1895. Many storms consistently gathered in Illinois and moved eastward across Indiana.\nAnd then many moved on into Ohio. At an official statewide average total of 7.59 inches, it's also the rainiest April in Ohio since 1895. Michigan fared slightly better, as rainfall wasn't quite as dramatic the farther north you went. Statewide average for April in Michigan was 7.59 inches, making it the second rainiest April in Michigan since 1915.\nNo actual average statewide total was announced for Wisconsin. Again, the total was not as dramatic as for states further south.

Although there were no major forest fires in South Carolina as of Thursday, that hasn't kept smoke from blanketing the entire state. \"This is more smoke than I've ever seen down here in Columbia,\" said Bill Craig, an official with the U.S. Forest Service there. But it's not as bad as parts of North Carolina and Virginia, where visibility was reduced to about a mile or less Thursday, said Wayne Jones of the National Weather Service's Greer station. In Spartanburg County and the rest of the Upstate, visibility was between three and five miles, he said. It is worse at night because cooler temperatures trap the smoke closer to the ground, Jones said. Winds are expected to shift to a southwesterly direction today, and that will clear out much of the smoke that has been hanging over the area the last few days, Jones said. Officials with the state Department of Health and Environmental Control have been receiving numerous inquiries about the smoke. On Thursday, they set up air quality sampling devices, but results were not expected until late today or Saturday, said Gene Slice, director of the division of air quality control for DHEC. Slice said the smoke would be an irritant more than anything and obviously harder on people with respiratory problems. Meanwhile, firefighters from across the country, including about 40 from South Carolina, are fighting widespread fires in Tennessee that have charred about 2,000 acres in the past week, Craig said. Arsonists are being blamed for many of the fires, which also have charred huge areas of West Virginia and Kentucky. As of Thursday there were no fires on the 3 percent of South Carolina land managed by the U.S. Forest Service, and only small fires in other parts of the state. But officials are concerned about the dry\ncondition of South Carolina forests. Roy Boyd, assistant district forester with the state Forestry Commission, said the lack of rain and low humidity have made the state ripe for fires. He said humidity dropped to 16 percent Wednesday, and Thursday the National Weather Service reported humidity at 20 percent. \"The lower the humidity the more chances you have of having a fire spread real fast, Boyd said. Since Oct. 22, there have been 168 fires across the state, and they have burned 564 acres, Boyd said. The Forestry Commission has issued a red flag alert, which is not a not ban on burning but advises people to take extra precautions or postpone burning if they can. The absence of strong winds in the Upstate has helped keep forest fires from spreading, Boyd said. The weather has not been so favorable in Tennessee, where winds up to 25 miles an hour have fanned several fires and blown the smoke to the east. Firefighters are battling a blaze that has charred about 700 acres in Cocke County and they don't expect to have it contained until Saturday, according to U.S. Forest Service officials. Fires in North Carolina have been small and isolated. A total of 39 fires in the western region there have burned about 40 acres, officials said.

The forecast map above shows frigid temperatures as low as -18°C (-0.4°F).\nSadly, earthquake ravaged Turkey will be seriously affected. According to The Guardian report, it will be “…hit with strong winds and heavy snowfall too, with maximum snowfall accumulations of more than a metre across the Pontic Mountains in the north of the country during the first part of this week. Turkish Airlines has already cancelled 240 domestic and international flights out of Istanbul airport to prepare for the incoming cold weather.”\nWith 11,000 already dead, extreme cold is hampering recovery efforts. PBS reports that some have already died due to the cold, and others may die due to lack of shelter and heat.\nThe cold also made life miserable for those who lost their homes.

Several of the core storms were highly “electrified” and we did see Severe Thunderstorm Warnings posted for a few areas (St. Landry, Avoyelles, Pointe Coupee, West Feliciana, northern Tangipahoa parishes and southern Pike Co.).\nAnd if you happened to get caught beneath one of the stronger afternoon cells you certainly had to deal with a serious downpour or two as well as some vivid lightning. There were even a few reports of wind damage around the area, including 2 minor injuries to infants in Kentwood when a tree fell on a house and some of the falling ceiling material caused some scratches.\nMost WAFB neighborhoods can expect a dry but muggy start to Wednesday with mostly cloudy skies and patches of mainly-light early morning fog. Sunrise temps should be in the low to mid 70°s for most WAFB communities. But rains will be more widespread for Wednesday … and Thursday.\nThe high-pressure ridging that has limited afternoon storm development over the last several days will take a short vacation from our viewing area, allowing for scattered to numerous afternoon and early evening rains for the next two days. We’ll post rain chances at 60% to 70% -- which means that most neighborhoods will get at least a little rain. These won’t be all-day rains, just a broader coverage each day. The better rain chances also mean that most or all of us top-out in the 80°s for the next two afternoons.\nAs we head into Friday and the weekend, the guidance indicates that the high will sneak back into the weather mix, once again limiting -- but not shutting-off -- the opportunity for afternoon rains. We’ll go with a 30% rain chance for Friday, Saturday and Sunday -- back to something more typical for late June. That also means that the 90°s will return for the weekend as well.\nIt’s Lightning Awareness Week, and we note that Louisiana ranks among the deadliest states for lightning when weighted by population size. There have been 17 lightning-related fatalities in the Bayou State since 2000 (14+ years), just over one-per-year, on average. All of the victims were males, most were adults (age 21 or older), all were outside at the time of the accident … and in many cases, witnesses say that it was not raining when the deadly strike occurred.\nLightning safety is simple: when you see a flash or hear a rumble, go inside! Inside can also be a car, a bus … anything enclosed (with the windows up if it’s a vehicle).\nAll is still quiet in the tropics, with the NHC calling for no development through the next five days, at least.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It has to do with whether streets are designed to be safe and enjoyable for those who are walking or biking. It is about the air and water being safe to breathe and drink. It is about having infrastructure like broadband internet to connect people to opportunities. It has to do with the way places and conditions are designed to promote the health and well-being of its residents. It is also about whether there are structures and policies in place, historical or current, that means that people in some neighborhoods may not have a fair chance to thrive.\nHow often does dangerous air pollution affect Monroe County, Indiana?\nWhat this measures: percent of days with levels of PM2.5 pollution above regulatory standard. PM2.5 pollution is air pollution made of particles less than 2.5 micrometers in width. Sources of PM2.5 pollution include fuel-burning vehicles and power plants. Forest fires also produce PM2.5 pollution.\nWhy this matters: This type of pollution is extremely dangerous. PM2.5 particles are so small that they can travel deep into the lungs and even the bloodstream. It raises the risk of health conditions like heart attacks, asthma, allergies, and lung infections. Older adults, infants, pregnant women, and those with pre-existing health conditions are especially at risk of experiencing health problems from air pollution.\nWhat this relates to: Health.\nData source: CDC, National Environment Public Health Tracking Network. The data is based on a combination of measured and modeled estimates, which give a fuller picture of pollution levels than monitors only. More information on regulatory standards for particulate pollution can be found on the EPA.\nHow walkable is Monroe County, Indiana?\nWhat this measures: How walkable a community is.\nWhy this matters: Walkability tells us how well the design of a city supports walking and other physical activity. People living in areas with high walkability are more likely to be active in how they get around. Walkable neighborhoods tend to have lower rates of diabetes and obesity than less walkable areas.\nWhat this relates to: Green space, air quality, health.\nData source: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

That Australia was prone to dryness and dust before the Dutch stumbled upon it doesn’t factor.\nWhen the Guardian reported last year that snow was blanketing the Middle East, they didn’t ask whether this showed we were all in for global cooling.\nCooler heads of course know that neither event tells us much about our climate. Weather varies and history records the average of extremes. If the press reports unseasonable heat as warming and takes unseasonable cold in stride, it heads down the slippery slope from news to propaganda failing its readers, viewers and listeners.\nA busy tropical storm season is sure to bolster the warming cry, while this year’s quiet tropical storm season has raised few eyebrows and is treated as just a stray point on the graph. Angela Merkel has frequently mentioned the devastation wrought by Hurricane Katrina as evidence of global warming, rather than evidence of the poor maintenance of New Orleans’ levees. Few recall that a century ago a hurricane struck not far from New Orleans and destroyed Galveston Texas. The tropics have always dissipated their energy through storms taking no notice of world opinion. Of course soon after writing the above we learn that a strong Typhoon in the Phillipines ” is clearly a manifestation of the consequences of global inaction in addressing the immediate impacts of creeping climate change,” or so said The Philippines’ chief climate negotiator Secretary Heherson Alvarez. How exactly Typhoon Ketsana learned of the IPCC prediction that the world will warm by 1.1 to 6.4 degrees by 2100 in time to intensify 100 years early remains unclear.\nIs the world warming? Will any trend last? Is mankind responsible and can it do anything about it? These are serious questions.

The accumulation of ice and slush was not significant, but it was enough to make roads slippery for drivers.\n\"That's been the main weather so far, ice roads this morning,\" Steve Welch, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Buffalo, said late Sunday morning. \"There are some slick spots still out there, especially on side roads, from the freezing rain earlier this morning and rain from overnight that froze on the ground once the temperature dropped below freezing earlier.\"\nThat played out on streets across the region. In Amherst, a police dispatcher said officers were “inundated” with calls “town-wide” about car accidents, mostly “cars off the road in the ditches” and fender-benders.\nUniversity at Buffalo police also issued a warning about “very icy road conditions on campus and on roads leading to campus,” warning against any unnecessary travel on either the North or South campuses. “Please use caution when walking on campus as well,” said the warning, posted on the university web site and on Twitter.\nThe situation was similar in Cheektowaga, with “icy roads and a lot of wrecks,” a town dispatcher said. Galleria Drive, around the Walden Galleria mall, was particularly problematic, he said, but so were many other roads in the town. And police were dealing with many cases of cars sliding off the highways and into ditches..\n“The state roads are pretty good. They’re getting better,” he said. But “the town roads are pretty bad. They didn’t get out quick enough.”\nHamburg police “had a few fender-benders,” but “nothing major,” according to a dispatcher, despite slippery conditions on the roads. “They’ve been slick all morning, the entire town, everywhere,” the officer said.\nAnd a West Seneca dispatcher called it a “miracle” that the town wasn’t dealing with any accidents Sunday, as road conditions were improving steadily all morning. “That’s all we’ve been doing for the last several days,” he said.\nThe city of Lackawanna also had a quiet morning, with no accidents, a police official said. “All of our plow trucks are out there salting, and we haven’t had any complaints,” she said.\nSimilarly, plows “were out early this morning” in the town of Lancaster, and the “salt is working fine,” a police dispatcher there said. “Everything is pretty quiet,” she added.\nBoth the city and town of Tonawanda reported no accidents or other problems Sunday morning. “Everything’s going good,” a city dispatcher said. “Our [Department of Public Works] is out and they’re salting, and I haven’t had any accident calls. They’re just doing the whole city.”\nSalt trucks also were already out in Kenmore. “The road conditions are getting better,” a dispatcher in Orchard Park said. “The salt trucks have been out and taking care of the streets for us.”\nThe more rural parts of the Southtowns also were faring better for a change. In East Aurora, roads were slick,but there were “no accidents holding at this time,” a police dispatcher said Sunday morning. Similarly, road conditions in the town of Eden are “just wet here,” according to a dispatcher.\n“It’s quiet,” an Evans police dispatcher said. “We have not had any accidents.”\nThe cold front that passed through Western New York overnight also brought chillier air. Temperatures peaked at about 34 degrees briefly overnight, at about 2 a.m., but began dropping steadily after that, on their way to expected highs in the upper teens by late afternoon or early evening. Welch, of the National Weather Service, said the clouds should clear up and allow some sunshine later in the day.\nFor Monday, he said, there's a chance of snow showers early in the day, and then lake-effect snow will develop over the Southern Tier, with a northwest wind. That band will shift to the north, moving over most of Erie County over the course of the day, but it won't generate more than an inch anywhere because it's not expected to remain in place, Welch said.\n\"It's not going to be really steady,\" he said. \"It's going to be moving a decent amount most of the day.\"\nFor Tuesday, meanwhile, Welch said the temperature should hit a \"balmy\" 33 degrees, with mostly sunny skies and breezy conditions.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The countervailing forces put the rocks of the Sulaiman range in a unique compressional vice, causing many of its faults to curve and stretch in convoluted ways.\nThe Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) instrument on NASA’s Terra satellite captured a scene on April 24, 2011, that highlights some of this tectonic complexity.

The fires, burning in Canada’s boreal zone, are producing dense smoke. As of July 8, at least 164 blazes had charred more than 425,172 hectares (1,642 square miles), according to the Canadian government. The fires destroyed one home, forced hundreds of people to evacuate, and sent smoke drifting as far south as the continental United States.\nThe Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Terra satellite captured this image of smoke billowing from wildfires near Faber Lake on July 7, 2014.

Four of the tornadoes were rated as EF-4 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale, meaning that they were violent tornadoes with winds between 166 and 200 miles per hour. One EF-4 tornado spun directly through Pilger, Nebraska, a small town of 350 people, leveling much of the town.\nThe Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) instrument aboard NASA’s Terra satellite captured the top image of northeast Nebraska on June 21, 2014. Two of the EF-4 tornado tracks are visible in the false-color image (near-infrared, red, green). The tracks are tan paths of bare ground across plant-covered fields, which are red.

But this year the Perseids have a bright shining rival. On Sunday, two days before the meteor shower reaches its peak, the moon will become full.\nCoincidentally, it will also have reached the point in its orbit that is closest to the Earth, known as perigee. The supermoon will be up to 14% bigger and 30% brighter than other full moons during the year.\nOn one level, this is bad news, according to Dr Bill Cooke from Nasa's meteoroid environment office. \"Lunar glare wipes out the black, velvety backdrop required to see faint meteors, and sharply reduces counts.\"\nBut all is not lost. The debris stream left by comet Swift-Tuttle, which produces the Perseids, is wide, so the shooting stars could make an appearance well before the moon becomes full. Cooke added that the Perseids were also \"rich in fireballs as bright as Jupiter or Venus\" that would remain visible despite the moon's glare.\nA study conducted by his team since 2008 has shown the Perseids to be the undisputed \"fireball champion\" of meteor showers. \"We see more fireballs from Swift-Tuttle than any other parent comet.\"\nTony Markham, director of the Society for Popular Astronomy's meteor section, also urged skywatchers to stay optimistic.\n\"The Perseids are rich in bright meteors and so many Perseids will still be seen despite the moonlit sky background,\" he wrote on the SPA's website. \"You can minimise the effect of the moonlight by observing with your back to the moon – possibly viewing the Cassiopeia/Cepheus/Ursa Minor area. If possible, keep the moon hidden behind trees or a nearby building.\"\nHe pointed out that at this time of year the moon is relatively close to the horizon, leaving much of the sky dark. Markham also suggested looking at an area of sky 20 to 30 degrees away from the Perseid radiant – the spot near the constellation of Perseus that the meteors appear to fly out from.\nEvery 133 years, comet Swift-Tuttle swings through the inner solar system, leaving behind a trail of dust. When the Earth passes through, the dust cloud particles hit the atmosphere at 140,000mph and burn up in streaking flashes of light, creating the spectacle known as the Perseids.\nThe best time to see the meteors is between Saturday and Wednesday, with activity peaking on Tuesday. An unusually bright full supermoon was also seen on 12 July, and another is due to appear on 9 September. But the supermoon of Sunday promises to be the most dramatic, since this is when the moon will be at its closest point to the Earth all year.\nAt perigee, the moon is around 31,000 miles closer than when it is furthest away from the Earth. Supermoons occur relatively often, every 13 months and 18 days, but are not always noticed because of clouds or poor weather.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Despite its unpredictable path, it was forecast to make landfall near Cape Fear, North Carolina, at midday on Friday.\nNorth Carolina Governor Roy Cooper told a news conference that the “historic” hurricane would unleash rains and floods that would inundate almost the entire state in several feet of water, Reuters reports.\nEarly on Friday, the downtown area of the city of New Bern, on the Trent and Neuse rivers near the North Carolina coast, was underwater as emergency crews conducted several rescues, according to reports on social media.\nA gauge in the city of 30,000 people showed the Neuse River was recording 9.6 feet of inundation, the National Hurricane Centre (NHC) said.\nAt least 150,000 people were without power in North Carolina early on Friday with the brunt of the storm yet to come, according to utility companies. Millions were expected to lose power from the storm and restoration could take weeks.\nRoads and intersections on North Carolina’s Outer Banks barrier islands were inundated.\nFlorence’s top winds were clocked on Thursday evening at 90 mph (150 km/h) as it churned in the Atlantic Ocean, down from a peak of 140 mph (224 km/h) earlier this week when it was classified as a Category 4 storm before being downgraded.\nThe storm’s centre was about 50 miles south of Morehead City at around 11 pm (03:00 GMT Friday).\nAbout 10 million people could be affected by the storm and more than 1 million had been ordered to evacuate the coasts of the Carolinas and Virginia, jamming westbound roads and highways for miles.\nAt least 12,000 people had taken refuge in 126 emergency shelters, Cooper said, with more facilities being opened.\nThe NHC warned the threat of tornadoes was increasing as Florence neared shore and South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster said the heavy rain could trigger landslides in the west of his state.\nNHC Director Ken Graham said on Facebook the storm surges could push in as far as 2 miles (3 km).

That’s about 14 times closer than the orbit of Mercury, our closest planet to the sun.\nThe exact time of the closest approach, known as perihelion, will be 10:36 a.m. EST (1536 GMT), according to a spokesperson at the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, which oversees the mission.\nRelated: What’s inside the sun? A star tour from the inside out\nAt closest approach, the spacecraft will be flying at about 364,660 mph (586,860 kilometers kph); Parker Solar Probe has held the speed record for fastest spacecraft since 2018, a couple of months after its launch.\nBy the end of its mission, the spacecraft will be send home data from within just 3.83 million miles (6.16 million km) of the sun’s surface. Getting that close to the sun will allow scientists to continue making observations about the solar environment, particularly the atmosphere, which scientists call the corona. The incredibly hot corona is millions of degrees hotter than the surface, regardless of the scale of temperature used, and it’s not quite clear yet how this huge jump in temperatures happens.\nParker Solar Probe launched in August 2018 to study the sun’s outer atmosphere and includes four different instrument suites to learn more about how the corona works, and how it affects space weather near our planet.\nSpace weather can affect our planet in numerous ways, especially when coronal mass ejections of charged particles from our sun hit infrastructure such as power lines or satellites. These events, however, also can produce colorful displays high in up in our atmosphere called auroras.\nWhile doing solar science, Parker is also performing flybys of other planets to pick up speed and to do some side science observations. An example includes visible-light pictures of Venus that the probe captured, released earlier in February. Over the mission, the probe will make a total of seven Venus flybys to use the planet’s gravity to adjust course; the next such flyby will occur in August 2023.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Named Aditya-L1, the craft will cover a distance of 1.5 million kilometres in space, during a span of approximately 120 days. The craft will be travelling to Lagrange Point 1 or L1, a vantage point from where it would have an unobstructed view of the sun.\nTo understand the science and applications of Aditya-L1, WION spoke to Prof Ramesh from the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA). Notably, the IIA has contributed the Visible Emission Line Coronagraph payload for this mission and Prof Ramesh is the Principal Investigator of the same.\nWhile this is a mission to study the sun, it would be travelling only 1 per cent if the Earth-Sun distance, unlike NASA’s Parker Solar Probe that has flown a few million miles in the vicinity of the Sun. The Earth-Sun distance is approximately 150 million kilometres.\nThe launch of Aditya-L1 comes barely 10 days after India soft-landed its Chandrayaan-3 craft (comprising a lander and rover) on the moon.\n“Studies related to the Sun can be carried out from ground-based observatories, but they are limited by the day-night cycle. So, an agency would require multiple stations across the earth to study the sun continuously, but each of these observatories would offer their own data (based on the unique characteristics of the equipment). Also, the earth’s atmosphere and dust particles scatter the radiation coming in from the sun and affect the quality of the data” Prof Ramesh from the Indian Institute of Astrophysics told WION.\nExplaining the exterior layers of the sun, he said that the sun’s Photosphere emitted the strongest light, the photosphere is then covered by the Chromosphere (which extends 1000s of kms) and finally there is the Corona (Sun’s outermost layer).\n“The Corona emits light, but it is million times less intense than that of the Photosphere. Therefore, it is only during a solar eclipse(when moon covers the sun’s Photosphere by coming in the path between earth and Sun) that we are able to study the faint light from the Corona” he added.\nHowever, eclipses happen only one or twice a year and the data from eclipses which last a few minutes would be insufficient to study transient changes.\nOn the Aditya-L1 craft, we have a device known as Visible Emission Line Coronagraph (VELC), which is capable of artificially blocking the light of the Photosphere and studying the light from the Corona.\n“We are interested in studying the Corona owing to its dynamic nature and regular eruptions from the Corona(Coronal Mass Ejections), where charged particles from the sun travel at 3000km/sec speeds. At this speed, it can reach the earth in around 15hours, he explained.\nSuch phenomena can affect the electronics and solar panels of satellites orbiting the earth, it can also cause geomagnetic storms that can temporarily swell up earth’s atmosphere and drag satellites that are flying as low as 200km orbit. Such incidents can even known out high-tension power lines (as it happened in Quebec City Canada and In Zurich Airport).\nFrom the L1 vantage point, around which the spacecraft will be circling, the VELC payload will be able to image the sun’s corona every single minute and help researchers understand the fast changes in Solar atmosphere.\nUsing a Polarimeter, we can also measure and predict which sun spots(dark regions with strong magnetic fields, where even light cannot enter) can erupt and lead to Coronal Mass ejections. in future, this could help us predict any danger to satellites around earth, assess which CMEs will reach earth and which won’t.\nNotably, when such high-speed particles from the Sun reach the earth’s atmosphere, the upper layers of the atmosphere act as a barrier and divert the charged particles to earth’s poles, thereby causing the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis) and Southern Lights (Aurora Australis), a dazzling display of light blue-green-yellow-red lights in the winter night skies near the earths north polar and south polar regions.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Due to this I have expanded the coverage to include notable college games this weekend. With the NFL slate there are not any games that will be affected by the usual suspects of rain, wind or snow – however I am including a few games where the cold may have an impact only because the visiting team will be somewhat of a fish out of water. Lets dive in:\nSaints @ Bengals (noon Sunday) – Temperatures in Cincinnati will be in the mid to low 40s for this game. I am only mentioning it due to the fact that as a southern dome team the Saints are not accustomed to playing in these conditions. However, the Saints seem to be such a well-oiled machine with a formidable ground game that the impact of temperatures will likely be negligible.\nFalcons @ Browns (noon Sunday) - The temperature will be hovering in the upper 30s with the windchill right at 30 degrees for this game in Cleveland. Similar to the game I mentioned above the Falcons, like the Saints, are not accustomed to these conditions. However the fact that they are playing the Browns may help offset some of the detriment of the cold temperatures.\nDolphins @ Packers (3:25 PM Sunday) – This is the ultimate fish out of water game. The tundra of Lambeau will be living up to its name with game time temperatures in the mid to low 30s with a small chance of snow. Due to these conditions and the Dolphin’s talent level I believe the cold will have a real impact here. To Aaron Rodgers these conditions are likely downright refreshing, but for the Dolphins it will likely be quite a shock to the system. Look for the Dolphins to try to keep it on the ground as much as possible, especially with Osweiler under center.\nI have highlighted too many games here to give individual breakdowns but below you will find a summary of the notable conditions so that you can make or adjust any wagers accordingly. Take note – wind will be an issue at many games on Saturday.\nTCU @ West Virginia – Mid to low 30s. Slight chance of snow. Wind 14 MPH gusting to 25 MPH.\nOhio State @ Michigan State – Low 30s. Chance of snow early in the game. Wind 17 MPH gusting to 30 MPH.\nWisconsin @ Penn State – Mid 30s. Wind 15 MPH gusting to 40 MPH.\nBaylor @ Iowa State – Temperature in the upper 20s with a windchill in the upper teens.\nVirginia Tech @ Pitt – Mid 30s. Chance of snow. Wind 16 MPH gusting to 35 MPH.\nPurdue @ Minnesota – Temperatures in the upper 20s with a chance of snow late.\nTemple @ Houston – Low 50s with rain.\nFlorida State @ Notre Dame – Temperature in the mid 20s.\nTexas @ Texas Tech – Mid 40s. Wind 14 to 20 MPH.\nClemson @ Boston College – Upper 30s. Wind 15 MPH gusting to 45 MPH.\nIf you are looking for information on any other games feel free to reach me on Twitter @stephenuzick.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

There were no reports of serious damage, county officials said.\nJIM WELLS COUNTY\nHeavy rainfall, more than an inch in some areas, and a pretty lightning show were the worst of the storm for the county, officials including Sheriff Oscar Lopez said.\nCounty maintenance director Gavino Hernandez said the storm did not hit Kenedy County particularly hard. Several trees were downed and local rain gauges showed that the county got almost half an inch of much needed rain, he said.\nThere were no reports of damage in Kleberg County, according to Sheriff Ed Mata's office. Winds were measured at 48 miles per hour and the city got slightly more than half of an inch of rain.\nSAN PATRICIO COUNTY\nMost of the damage in the county was relatively minor, with downed tree limbs and power lines, according to county officials. The Catholic Church in Aransas Pass has roof damage, Police Chief Darrell Jones said. And a tent set up for the Aransas Pass Shrimporee on June 11-13 was damaged as well.\nIngleside lost several electric poles to high winds and the center of town was closed briefly Thursday after crews replacing downed poles hit a gas line, Ingleside Fire Chief Chad Champion said.\nThere also were reports of a tornado north of Sinton, but it blew through the brush and was not believed to have caused major damage, according to the San Patricio County Sheriff's Office.\nNeed Help?

In addition to providing the best glimpse of the planet’s rings in more than 30 years, Webb’s cameras also shed new insight on the ice giant.\nThe clarity of the planet’s rings, some of which have not been seen since NASA’s Voyager 2 became the first spacecraft to examine Neptune during its approach in 1989, is what stands out most in Webb’s latest photograph.\nThe Web Displays\nThe Webb image vividly displays Neptune’s fainter dust bands in addition to many brilliant, narrow rings. Since it was discovered in 1846, Neptune has captivated scientists.\nNeptune orbits in the distant, dark area of the outer solar system, 30 times further from the Sun than Earth. High noon on Neptune is comparable to a dull twilight on Earth because of how small and pale the Sun appears from such a great distance away.\nThe internal chemical composition of this planet qualifies it as an ice giant. Neptune is substantially richer in elements heavier than hydrogen and helium than the gas giants Jupiter and Saturn.\nSmall concentrations of gaseous methane enable Neptune to appear characteristically blue in Hubble Space Telescope photos at visible wavelengths, which is easily observable.\nNeptune does not seem blue to Webb because his Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) only sees objects in the near-infrared spectrum between 0.6 and 5 microns. In fact, the planet is fairly black at these near-infrared wavelengths due to the substantial absorption of red and infrared light by methane gas, with the exception of areas with high-altitude clouds.\nThese bright streaks and spots of methane-ice clouds are noticeable because they reflect sunlight before it is absorbed by methane gas. Over the years, images from other observatories, such as the W.M. Keck Observatory and the Hubble Space Telescope, have captured these rapidly changing cloud features.\nThe Visual Indicators\nA more discrete visual indicator of the worldwide atmospheric circulation that fuels Neptune’s winds and storms could be a thin line of brightness circling the planet’s equator.\nAt the equator, the atmosphere lowers and warms, making it light at infrared wavelengths more than the nearby, cooler glasses.\nNeptune’s northern pole, near the top of this image, is just out of sight for astronomers due to its 164-year orbit, but the Webb images suggest an unusual brightness there.\nWebb’s image clearly shows a previously known vortex around the southern pole, but this is the first time Webb has shown a continuous band of high-latitude clouds surrounding it. Seven of the 14 known moons of Neptune were also captured by Webb.\nA very brilliant point of light with the distinctive diffraction spikes observed in many of Webb’s photographs dominates this Webb painting of Neptune; however, this object is not a star.\nTriton reflects over 70% of the sunlight that strikes it due to its icy sheen of condensed nitrogen.\nThe planet’s atmosphere is blackened by methane absorption at these near-infrared wavelengths, thus it significantly outshines Neptune in this view.\nAstronomers believe that Triton was originally a Kuiper belt object that was gravitationally caught by Neptune because of its peculiar retrograde (backward) orbit around the planet. In the upcoming year, additional Triton and Neptune Webb studies are anticipated.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Last year was about 0.5 degrees warmer than 2012, previously holding the title of hottest fall. During the season until the end of October, sea surface temperatures remained above 60 degrees Celsius, about 6 degrees above normal.\n“this year [in the Gulf] Cathy Mills, who runs the Integrated Systems Ecology Lab at the Gulf of Maine Research Institute, said it was exceptionally hot considering how many days we were seeing heat wave conditions. “But I didn’t think about the aggregation of the impact that this year caused the hottest fall on record. . . . I was very surprised.”\nThe Gulf of Maine is warming faster than 96% of the world’s oceans – rising at a rate of 0.09 degrees per year over the past four decades. Over the past 10 years, many of the increases may be linked to ocean heat waves.\nAn oceanic heat wave is a period of five or more days where the sea surface temperature is in the 90th percentile higher than the average. The Gulf experienced oceanic heat wave conditions for most of 2021, with only brief breaks in late March, April and July. Heat wave conditions returned in August and persisted through the rest of the year. The largest declining temperature anomaly occurred on 16 October when the daily temperature reached 6.3 °C above the long-term average (1982–2011).\nHeat waves in the region initially caught the attention of researchers in 2012, when warmer than normal temperatures prevailed over the region for almost the entire year. Since 2012, the warm season has only increased, especially in the later part of the year. Mills said summer and fall in the Gulf are warming almost twice as fast as winter and spring.\nSince 2008, the decline in sea surface temperatures has warmed by about 1.1 degrees every decade. The average fall temperature has not dropped below 57 degrees Celsius since 2010. The four warmest fall seasons have occurred in the past seven years.\nNevertheless, a drop in sea surface temperatures was recorded in 2021.\nMills said last fall’s extraordinary heat may be triggered by a change in the broad ocean circulation pattern, which has been present in the region over the past decade.\nHe informed that this area is at present at a stage where Gulf Stream, a strong ocean current from the Gulf of Mexico that brings warm water into the Gulf of Maine, is moving north. Mills said Maine is “getting more of that hot water spinoff.” As the Gulf Stream moves north, it also interrupts the flow of the Labrador Current, which brings cooler water from the Labrador Sea into the Gulf of Maine.\n“You’re turning the dial on warm water, you’re turning the dial on cold water, and that’s really contributing to the massive warming pattern that we’re seeing in the Gulf of Maine,” he said. said.\nOn top of this ocean circulation pattern, the Gulf’s exceptional warmth – the second warmest on record – also kept temperatures elevated throughout the fall season. Warmer-than-normal atmospheric conditions also prevented sea surface temperatures from cooling.\n“Our fall temperatures are sustained over a long period of time, and it’s being affected by how hot we get during the summer,” Mills said. “If you’re starting from a high point in the summer and your temperatures are cooling down more slowly, it makes these fall temperatures look a lot different from earlier temperatures.”\nThe change in temperature in the waters of the Gulf did not go unnoticed. Over the past year, the Gulf of Maine Research Institute received reports of unusual animals in the area – including blue crabs, black sea bass and a smooth hammerhead shark. Other offshore marine species, such as river herring and striped bass, also stick around for longer periods of time rather than migrate.\nThe lobster industries have also adjusted to changes in temperature and ocean heat waves. Mills said the 2012 heat wave brought a significant amount of lobsters closer to shore than usual, causing much disruption to typical practices.\n“The industry has really adjusted to that, and we don’t see those types of situations really causing the same alarm and problems that they did in 2012,” Mills said. She said some fishing boats are stocked with equipment to cool or oxygenate the water on stressful, high-temperature days, especially during the summer.\nAs species in the region change, Mills said, fisheries will need to adapt and plan. New species coming from the south may provide new opportunities.\n“We can draw on the Gulf of Maine experiences to provide insights that will hopefully enable other ocean regions to prepare for change and to adapt to that change,” she said. “We’re on the front edge of that, with a lot of things happening very quickly here.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The 225 degree object passed behind the path of the first, seemingly within a small distance away from the first. A short time after passing the other object, about 10 seconds or less, the 225 degree object changed direction and headed in approximately a 180-195 degree direction. The first object continued on its trajectory and they both continued in the direction they were until I could no longer see them due to either cloud cover or their distance from me.\nAbout a minute after those 2 objects disappeared from my sight I saw a falling object at about 90 degrees from my location, likely part of the meteor shower expected tonight.

The simultaneous observations by Mars Express and Venus Express give scientists the data they need to investigate the evolution of the two planets’ atmospheres.\nScientists call this work comparative planetology. Mars Express and Venus Express are so good at it because they carry very similar science instruments. In the case of the Analyser of Space Plasmas and Energetic Atoms (ASPERA), they are virtually identical. This allows scientists to make direct comparisons between the two planets.\nThe new results probe directly into the magnetic regions behind the planets, which are the predominant channels through which electrically charged particles escape. They also present the first detection of whole atoms escaping from the atmosphere of Venus, and show that the rate of escape rose by ten times on Mars when a solar storm struck in December 2006.\nBy observing the current rates of loss of the two atmospheres, planetary scientists hope that they will be able to turn back the clock and understand what they were like in the past. “These results give us the potential to measure the evolution of planetary climates,” says David Brain, Supporting Investigator for plasma physics for Venus Express and Co-Investigator for ASPERA on Mars and Venus Express at the University of California, Berkeley.\nAt Earth, the solar wind does not directly interact with the atmosphere. It is diverted by Earth’s natural cloak of magnetism. Neither Mars nor Venus have appreciable magnetic fields generated inside the planet, so each planet’s atmosphere suffers the full impact of the solar wind.\nInterestingly, this full-on interaction does create a weak magnetic field that drapes itself around each planet and stretches out behind the night-side in a long tail. Venus’s atmosphere is thick and dense, whereas that of Mars is light and tenuous. Despite the differences, the magnetometer instruments have discovered that the structure of the magnetic fields of both planets are alike.\n“This is because the density of the ionosphere at 250 km altitude is surprisingly similar,” says Tielong Zhang, Principal Investigator for the Venus Express magnetometer instrument at Institut fuer Weltraumforschung (IWF), Oesterreiche Akademie der Wissenschaften, Austria. The ionosphere is the surrounding shell of electrically charged particles created by the impact of sunlight on the planet’s upper atmosphere.\nThe proximity of Venus to the Sun does create an important difference, however. The solar wind thins out as it moves through space so the closer to the Sun it is encountered, the more concentrated is its force. This creates a stronger magnetic field, making the escaping atmospheric particles move collectively like a fluid.\nAt Mars, the weaker field means that the escaping particles act as individuals. “This is a fundamental difference between the two planets,” says Stas Barabash, ASPERA Principal Investigator on both Mars Express and Venus Express, Swedish Institute of Space Physics.\nAnother illuminating difference between Mars and Venus is that Mars displays strong small-scale magnetic fields locked into the crust of the planet. In some regions, these pockets protect the atmosphere, in others they actually help funnel the atmosphere into space.\nThe complexity of the different processes revealed at Venus and Mars means that planetary scientists do not yet have the full picture. “There will be many more results to come,” says Barabash.\nThere is a lot to do because there are many different mechanisms that may cause the atmospheric particles to escape. Untangling it all will take time. “The longer the spacecraft work together, the longer we can watch and see what really happens,” says Brain.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Leonids are bright meteors, can also be colorful, and are considered to be some of the fastest meteors out there, according to NASA.\nThey’re also known for periodic storms every 33 years or so, which can result in hundreds to thousands of meteors seen per hour on Earth — depending on the location of the viewer.\nNo storm is predicted for 2021, but stargazers can still see plenty of meteors during the activity period of Nov. 6-10. The shower will peak early in the morning on Nov. 17, according to EarthSky, which offers night sky and science news.\nLeonids are also known for their fireballs, which are larger explosions of light and color that can persist longer than an average meteor streak, as well as \"earthgrazers,\" which are meteors that streak close to the horizon and are known for their long and colorful tails, NASA says.\nFILE - Leonids meteor streaks across the sky over Gudul district of Ankara, Turkey on Nov. 17, 2020. (Photo by Dogukan Keskinkilic/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images)\nHow many Leonid meteors will be visible in 2021?\nSkywatchers can expect to see anywhere from 10 to 15 meteors an hour at the peak of the Leonid meteor shower, according to EarthSky. And that is under ideal conditions, which includes a rural location and a moon that’s absent in the sky.\n\"In 2021, we have to deal with a waxing gibbous moon, which will make it hard to see fainter meteors. The best time to look is just before dawn (on Nov. 17) after the moon has set,\" the website states.\nWhere to watch the 2021 Leonid meteor shower and other viewing tips\nThe Leonids are best viewed starting at about midnight local time and in an area away from city or street lights — preferably in the country or other rural setting, NASA says.\n\"Come prepared for winter temperatures with a sleeping bag, blanket or lawn chair. Orient yourself with your feet towards east, lie flat on your back, and look up, taking in as much of the sky as possible. In less than 30 minutes in the dark, your eyes will adapt and you will begin to see meteors,\" the space agency recommends.\n\"Be patient — the show will last until dawn, so you have plenty of time to catch a glimpse,\" it adds.\nEarthSky has a page dedicated to finding the best places on Earth to stargaze. You can also determine meteor shower activity by location here.\nWhere do the Leonid meteors come from?\nMeteors come from leftover comet particles and bits from broken asteroids, NASA explains online. The pieces of space debris that interact with our atmosphere to create the Leonids come from the comet 55P/Tempel-Tuttle.\nWhen comets come around the sun, such as the comet 55P/Tempel-Tuttle does once every 33 years, the dust they emit gradually spreads into a dusty trail around their orbits.\nEvery year, the Earth passes through these trails of debris — which allows the bits to collide with our atmosphere where they disintegrate to create fiery streaks in the sky.\nThe Leonid shower is famous for producing meteor storms, according to EarthSky. Its parent comet Tempel-Tuttle releases fresh material every time it approaches the sun every 33 years, prompting the periodic storms.\nThe 1833 Leonid meteor storm produced more than 100,000 meteors an hour, EarthSky said.\nOther celestial events in November 2021\nNovember will also come with a partial lunar eclipse, which is the second partial eclipse of 2021 and will be the longest such event within a stretch of 1,000 years.\n\"The next time Earth will see a partial lunar eclipse as lengthy as this month’s will be on February 8, 2669,\" EarthSky wrote.\nObservers in North America, Alaska, eastern Australia, New Zealand and Japan will be able to see the entire partial lunar eclipse. It will peak at its maximum early on Nov. 19 in North America, starting at 2:19 a.m. ET and ending at 5:47 a.m. ET.\nEarlier this month, stargazers were treated to another event in which the distant blue planet Uranus reached its closest point to Earth. The planet reached a point in its orbit known as \"opposition,\" meaning that it was opposite the sun from the vantage point of Earth.\nAs a result, Uranus became possible to see with the naked eye — though it was likely quite faint.\n\"Although Uranus is not considered a visible planet, at opposition it is bright enough to be visible for someone with excellent eyesight under very dark skies and ideal conditions,\" NASA said in a statement last month.\nThis story was reported from Cincinnati.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Tiger Island Fire, the largest wildfire in the state’s history, tore through Beauregard Parish in the southwestern part of the state and grew from an estimated 15,000 acres to over 33,000 acres between Friday and Sunday, according to local news reports. The fire is currently only 50 percent contained.\nThe Louisiana blazes have been blamed for two deaths.\nThe area burned in Beauregard Parish, both from the Tiger Island Fire and the Longville Fire, has now surpassed 50,000 acres. As the Tiger Island Fire raged Thursday, all 1,200 residents of Merryville in Beauregard Parish were forced to evacuate their homes. The fires ravaged an estimated 20 structures.\n“Wildfires this many and of this intensity are unprecedented,” Mike Strain, commissioner of the Louisiana Agriculture and Forestry Department, told The Washington Post. Louisiana, one of the wettest states in the country, averages 771 wildfires a year, according to 10-year average data from the department. The state has averaged 21 wildfires per day over the past several weeks, Strain said.\n“With this kind of heat, the low humidity and the lack of rainfall, this is probably the driest conditions, the most drought-prone conditions we’ve had in a generation,” Strain said.\nTemperatures over the weekend broke all-time records in multiple areas across the state. New Orleans International Airport soared to 105 degrees Sunday, its highest temperature ever observed. Also on Sunday, the Agriculture and Forestry Department recorded 14 wildfires in less than 10 minutes because of lightning strikes.\nAs fires have burned to the north and west of New Orleans, smoke plumes have entered the city at times, reducing air quality. The smoke cast a haze over the city Sunday and into Monday but was expected to disperse some because of winds and the chance of rain showers.\n“The fields are just so dry, so the grass is really dry and the bushes are really dry. Everything ignites a lot easier when we’re in this kind of drought,” said Danielle Manning, lead meteorologist at the National Weather Service forecast office in New Orleans.\nManning said that this summer is the hottest on record for the southern part of the state and that Baton Rouge is on track to exceed its three-month average temperature for the summer by nearly 3 degrees.\nNearly 77 percent of the state is experiencing severe drought conditions, which are affecting 4.2 million residents, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor. Beauregard Parish and the surrounding area, which borders Texas, is experiencing exceptional drought conditions — the most extreme category.\n“Our state has never been this hot and dry and we have never had this many fires,” Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards (D) wrote on Twitter.\nAn elderly woman died Sunday after a debris pile caused a brush fire that spread to a shed in St. Tammany Parish, which is just north of New Orleans, the Louisiana Office of State Fire Marshal confirmed. A statewide burn ban has been in effect since Aug. 7 because of the increased fire danger.\nEarlier this month, a man died in Franklinton, which is in Washington Parish, to the north of St. Tammany Parish, the Office of State Fire Marshal said, after his home and surrounding property caught on fire.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

To the eye, the meteors appear to originate from a ‘radiant’ in the constellation of Perseus, hence the name Perseid.\nAt its peak and in a clear, dark sky up to 80 ‘shooting stars’ or meteors from the Perseid meteor shower may be visible each hour.\nAlthough the Perseids peak on August 12th, the shower can be seen on either side of that date and it is worth taking a look the evening before as well as on the morning of August 13th.\nTo see the meteor shower, look towards the north-eastern sky from 0400 onwards. In clear weather and away from the light pollution of major cities, it should be possible to see a meteor at least every few minutes, with most appearing as brief streaks of light.\nThe waxing gibbous Moon will be in the evening sky but will have set by morning so its light will not interfere with the view after that time.\n(1) Laurentius is said to have been martyred by the Romans in 258 A.D. on an outdoor stove and King Philip II, when he wasn't marrying the crazy Queen of England, losing an entire Armada and ruining the Spanish economy, built his monastery place, the \"Escorial,\" on the plan of that martydom to celebrate Laurentius. Because the feast day was August 10th and the shower happens annually around that time, the 'tears' designation was formed.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Winter Solstice is today, Thursday, December 21st 2017. The night will last 14 hours and 27 minutes. And then days will start to grow longer,one minute per day until June 21st.\nWinter solstice is an astronomical phenomenon that occurs in the North Hemisphere when the Earth North axis is at the longest distance to the sun.\nThe phenomenon has to do with the elliptical orbit of the Earth and the sun’s elevation in the sky is the lowest.\nThe phenomenon of Winter Solstice lasts only a moment. The moment the the North Pole is tilted furthest from the sun as the Earth continues on its orbit.\nThe solstice doesn’t always occur on 21 December. Sometimes it nudges into the early hours of 22 December. Also the hour of day also varies. Last year’s arrived at 17:11. Next year’s will at 04:38.”\nAn interesting note, is that while days get longer, the mornings get darker!\n“It would seem logical that after the shortest day has elapsed the mornings would start getting lighter earlier, but this isn’t what happens – the mornings continue darkening until early in the new year.”\nPrimary reason for this “dark mornings” is that the solar days do not last exactly 24 hours as our clocks “claim”.\n“In fact, it is 24 hours only four times a year, and never in December,” explains astronomer Stephen Hurley, who runs a popular science blog called The Science Geek. “It is at its shortest around 23 hours 59 minutes and 30 seconds, in early September, and at its longest around 24 hours 30 seconds in December.”\nThe sun therefore in effect lags behind the clock for part of the year, then speeds ahead of it for another.\nAstrologers warn that the Dec 21st Winter Solstice will be the most AWFUL day of 2017, thanks to a rare cosmic occurrence that hasn’t happened in 350 years\n- December 21, the Winter Solstice, is predicted to be the worst day of 2017\n- For the first time since 1664, the Sun moves into Capricorn, hours after Saturn makes the same exact shift, causing the sun and Saturn to actually line up\n- Astrologers advise the people avoid making any important decisions or taking drastic actions as they may result in bad consequences for 2018\nPS I’ll follow astrologers’ advise and do not take any important decision or any drastic action other than tun on heating a bit earlier as it is damn cold today.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

I soon developed a keen interest for air pollution and its effects on human health. My role involved measuring air pollution, in particular Nitrogen Dioxide, implementing air quality action plans to ensure statutory pollution levels were not exceeded and reporting to Defra on behalf of the Council.\nPM2.5 is associated with early mortality and can exacerbate lung and heart conditions. Working with Nottingham City Council, Cambridge Environmental Research Consultants and Medical Researchers at the University of Nottingham, this PhD involves exploring the spatial and temporal distribution of Particulate Matter (PM2.5) across the City of Nottingham using available monitoring data and modelling air pollution via ADMS Urban. This data will be combined with general practice reports of cardiovascular disease and deprivation indices to investigate links between air pollution and health in more and less deprived parts of the City. The project will also look at the impacts of changing transport policy on future air pollution levels, reducing PM2.5 pollution could help to improve health outcomes and reduce health inequalities.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Photo: Xinhua\nA new study has found winters in northern China have been warming since 4,000BC – regardless of human activity – but the mainland scientists behind the research warn there is no room for complacency or inaction on climate change, with the prospect of a sudden global cooling also posing a danger.\nThe study found that winds from Arctic Siberia have been growing weaker, the conifer tree line has been retreating north, and there has been a steady rise in biodiversity in a general warming trend that continues today. It appears to have little to do with the increase in greenhouse gases which began with the industrial revolution, according to the researchers.\nLead scientist Dr Wu Jing, from the Key Laboratory of Cenozoic Geology and Environment at the Institute of Geology and Geophysics, part of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, said the study had found no evidence of human influence on northern China’s warming winters.\n“Driving forces include the sun, the atmosphere, and its interaction with the ocean,” Wu said. “We have detected no evidence of human influence. But that doesn’t mean we can just relax and do nothing.”\nMoon Lake, a small volcanic lake hidden in the deep forest of China’s Greater Khingan Mountain Range, where a team of scientists spent more than a decade studying the secrets hidden in its sediments. Photo: Baidu\nWu and her colleagues are concerned that, as societies grow more used to the concept of global warming, people will develop a misplaced confidence in our ability to control climate change. Nature, they warned, may trick us and might catch us totally unprepared – causing chaos, panic, famine and even wars as the global climate system is disrupted.\nThere are already alarming signs, according to their paper, which has been accepted for publication by the online Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres.\nWu and her colleagues spent more than a dozen years studying sediments under Moon Lake, a small volcanic lake hidden in the deep forests of the Greater Khingan Mountain Range in China’s Inner Mongolia autonomous region. They found that winter warming over the past 6,000 years had not been a smooth ride, with ups and downs occurring about every 500 years.\nTheir findings confirmed an earlier study by a separate team of Chinese scientists, published by online journal Scientific Reports in 2014, which first detected the 500-year cyclical pattern of China’s summer monsoons and linked it to solar activity.\nThe 2014 research, which drew on 5,000 years’ worth of data, suggested the current warm phase of the cycle could terminate over the next several decades, ushering in a 250-year cool phase, potentially leading to a partial slowdown in man-made global warming.\nWu said the latest study, with 10,000 years’ worth of new data, not only helped to draw a more complete picture of the 500-year cycle, but also revealed a previously unknown mechanism behind the phenomenon, which suggested the impact of the sun on the Earth’s climate may be greater than previously thought.\nAccording to Wu, the variation in solar activity alone was usually not strong enough to induce the rapid changes in vegetation the research team recorded in the sediment cores of Moon Lake. Instead, the scientists found the warming impact was amplified by a massive, random interaction between surface seawater and the atmosphere in the Pacific Ocean known as the El Nino-Southern Oscillation.\nAs a result of the research findings, Wu said she was now more worried about cooling than warming.\n“A sharp drop of temperature will benefit nobody. The biggest problem is, we know it will come, but we don’t know exactly when.”\nCourtesy of scmp.com\nAs the plains of Northern India reeled under the much-documented heat this week, the higher elevations of Kashmir were receiving super-rare June snow, with the lower regions inundated with heavy rains.\nThe unexpected June snowfall was received at the Sonamarg resort in central Kashmir, over its adjoining higher reaches and also in Drass, Kargil, Zanskar, towns in the Ladakh division, and in Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Sikkim.\nThe nation’s weather department deemed the snowfall a “rare” meteorological event.\n“I have never witnessed snow in summer. For me it was a miracle of watching snow in June when the heat wave is continuing in northern parts of the India,’’ said Rajesh Kumar, a tourist from Rajasthan.\nJalal Jeelani, an environmentalist and renowned film maker on environmental issues said this was no cause for celebration: “For us it is a warning and sign of the global warming. The snowfall is dangerous to our horticulture and agriculture sector. We should ponder why this is happening in our region.’’\nThat’s right, snowfall is now a sign of global warming, too.\nThere’s no illogic off limits.\nAnd while higher elevations received rare (?warm?) snow, plains of the Valley saw heavy rainfall overnight which triggered flash floods in several areas and also sharply increased the level of water bodies.\nThe catchments of south and north Kashmir received more than 2 inches (50 mm) of rain in the past 24 hours, according to the area’s Irrigation and Flood Control department.\n“50 mm plus rainfall in a catchment results in a flood-like situation in the tributary. The people residing along the tributaries in south and north Kashmir are advised to remain alert and not go too close to these tributaries,” the department warned.\nThe sun is continuing it’s relative shutdown, as it enters it’s next Grand Solar Minimum cycle:\nThe cold times are returning.\nCourtesy of electroverse.net\nWe are now enduring the coldest millennium in 10,000 years\nNonetheless, Climate alarmists promoting their views have converted the slight and truly beneficial warming at the end of the 20th century to a Modern high point “Great Man-made Global Warming Catastrophe”.\nAccording to ice core records, the last millennium 1000AD – 2000AD has been the coldest millennium of our current Holocene interglacial. This point is more fully illustrated with ice core records on a millennial basis back to the Eemian period here: – Ed Hoskins","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Royal Meteorological Institute said that it was \"the highest ever Belgian temperature.\"\nParis and other parts of France could see temperatures exceeding 104 Fahrenheit on Thursday along with Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg and Switzerland.\nParis is likely to break its all-time hottest record mark of 104.7 Fahrenheit, according to weather officials.\nThe heat is putting pressure on authorities to help protect the vulnerable, but it is also raising alarm for those working repairing the fire-ravaged Notre Dame Cathedral.\nThe cathedral’s chief architect, Philippe Villeneuve, told reporters Wednesday he is afraid the heat wave could leave the vaulted ceilings at risk of collapse.\nVilleneuve said the stone walls are still saturated with water sprayed by firefighters during the April 15 blaze, and that they could dry too fast amid the record temperatures expected in Paris this week. He said so far the masonry is stable but the structure remains fragile.\n“What I fear is that the joints or the masonry, as they dry, lose their coherence, their cohesion, and their structural qualities and that all of sudden, the vault gives way,\" he said.\nDozens of sensors dotted around the 12th-century monument have shown no indication that it's deteriorating, but Villeneuve said the vaulted ceiling “could very well” collapse, according to Reuters. While experts have had access to the bell towers and other parts of the cathedral, Villeneuve said they have not been able to access the ceiling from above or below.\n“I am very worried about the heat wave,” he said.\nSpecialists are still working to stabilize the cathedral's structure before reconstruction work begins. French authorities activated a heat wave alert plan, classing it as an Orange alert, the second-highest level of warning, France 24 reported.\nForecasters in the U.K meanwhile warned Thursday could also be the hottest day ever recorded, with temperatures likely to reach 102 Fahrenheit somewhere in southern and eastern England.\nThe current all-time record is 101.2 Fahrenheit logged in Faversham in August 2013, according to Sky News.\nAuthorities are urging people to stay out of the sun, drink plenty of water and check on older people living alone. Companies are also being advised to allow workers flexible start times to avoid the rush hour, relaxing dress codes, and keeping buildings cool.\nAcross London, authorities started handing out water and sunscreen to homeless people and opened day centers for them to rest and shower. In the Lewisham district of the British capital, garbage collectors will start working as early as 5 a.m. in the morning to beat the heat.\nThe second heat wave this summer is expected to be a relatively short event fueled by hot dry air from northern Africa, but authorities are taking precautions to protect vulnerable residents. Air conditioning is not common at homes, offices, schools or hospitals in European cities.\nThe weather is also aggravating droughts since it hasn't rained much in many parts of Europe this summer. The combination of heat, wind and possible lightning from thunderstorms also increases the risk of wildfires.\nIn the Netherlands, local authorities have taken an unusual precaution — with trucks scattering salt on the roads like they usually do in the winter. The salt spreaders are usually used to prevent ice forming on Dutch roads in the cold, but Arnhem municipality started using them to cool off asphalt that is baking.\nThe city says in a statement that the salt \"attracts moisture from the air and cools the asphalt.\" It also prevents asphalt from becoming sticky.\nThe heat wave will end in a few days. On the weekend, temperatures are expected to fall. However, quite often the end of a heat wave brings storms, including lightning and heavy flooding.\nThe Associated Press contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

January’s storm finally beat ‘78’s flooding record, 15.16 feet to 15.1 feet, in Boston, but broke no records on the North Shore.\nWe’ve had big storms since ‘78. The “Perfect Storm” in 1991. December, 1992. The April Fools storm in 1997. February 2013. January 2015.\nBut on the North Shore, the Blizzard of ‘78 remains king.\nThe storm combined a geographical and meteorological mix to create the deadly and destructive page it wrote in history.\n“The storm caused extensive inundation,” said Bob Thompson, head meteorologist at the National Weather Service’s Taunton office. “Once you get outside Boston Harbor and get into more open coastline, the North and South shores, you have got to consider the wave action. It was really a combination of water level and wave action.”\nThe area’s geography left it vulnerable to the pounding from waves 86-mph steady northeast winds and 111 mph gusts threw against the shore -- the January storm’s steady winds topped out at about 60 mph.\nTidal timing, storm length, wind speed and what meteorologists call “the fetch,” or the distance the steady northeast wind, in this case, has to whip up waves over an unobstructed ocean all contributed to the storm’s power.\nThe Blizzard of ‘78 had a fetch of about 300 miles, what Thompson called a “significant fetch.”\nThe Perfect Storm’s fetch was almost 1,000 miles.\nThe fact is the region has dodged any number of storms that could have fully outdone the Blizzard of ‘78, if the timing had been different.\n“The timing of the peak surge was just right for 1978,” Thompson said.\nThe Blizzard of 1978, for example, sustained four tidal cycles. This means the ocean never went completely out at low tide as it usually does. The sea just rose with each new high tide. The Jan. 4 storm, by comparison, lasted only one tidal cycle.\nThe January 2015 storm -- two feet to three feet of snow -- could have been much worse, despite its snow and flooding, because its peak surge coincided with low tide, not high tide.\n“The surge at the time of high tide was 3-and-a-third feet,” Thompson said. “The highest surge was 4.78 feet, but that came at low tide. Had that come at high tide, that storm would have given us 15.3 of flooding in Boston, higher than ‘78 or Jan. 4. Had it occurred the week before, during an astronomical high tide, that storm would have been 16.8 feet. Things would have to turn out just right or just wrong to give us that kind of flooding.”\nSimilarly, if, say, Hurricane Sandy had come 200 miles farther north, it would have hit during an astronomical tide and brought 18 feet of flooding, Thompson said.\nWith just the flooding the Jan. 4 blizzard brought, the Aquarium T station went under water and the Newburyport T commuter line suffered flood damage that delayed trains for almost a week.\nIf sea-level rise and the Earth continues to warm at predicted levels -- “As warming temperatures fuel larger and more frequent storms, storm surge will combine with sea-level rise,\" says the coastal adaptation plan -- flooding damage as the Blizzard of ‘78 caused will become more common.\n“The sea level has ticked up since ‘78,” Castonguay said. “Our vulnerability has also ticked up.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

For October, November and December, the total was 5.48 inches — about 7 inches less than the average of 12.68, according to figures from the National Weather Service.\nEarly-January rainfall is already well above the total December figure of 1.61.\nAnd the first mudslides of the wet season came Sunday evening. Two mudslides forced cancellation of Sounder commuter trains on Monday. Last year, by contrast, 170 trips were cancelled in the fall and winter months by mudslides.\nThis week’s slides occurred in Everett and Mukilteo, according to Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway. The railroad places a precautionary 48-hour moratorium on passenger rail trips once a slide is cleared.\nAlso during the past week’s rains, the weather service issued only its second flood watch of the fall and winter months for Snohomish County waters.\nThe dry autumn brought the best of many worlds to the county. It kept flooding and mudslides at bay and provided mostly clear roads for drivers.\nMeanwhile, in the mountains, it didn’t hurt business much at the Stevens Pass ski area, an official there said, and the low overall precipitation was not expected to diminish summer water supply, which depends on the snowpack that accumulates in winter.\nMark Murphy, emergency program manager for Snohomish County, said the reprieve from flooding has been welcome.\n“We’ll keep an eye on things,” he said.\nOn the roads, the autumn saw more frost and ice than usual in rural areas, but otherwise dry weather made for good driving conditions, county public works director Steve Thomsen said.\n“Not only has it been a relief because we haven’t had any high-water, over-the-road events, we haven’t had to do as much snow and ice work out there,” he said.\nFor some ski areas in the state, the relative drought has translated into tough economic times, but not at Stevens Pass, said Chris Danforth, vice president for sales and marketing.\nThe snowpack was lower than average, but as of last Thursday it was still 43 inches near the lodge and 64 inches in the upper reaches. By Monday it was up to 63 and 83, respectively.\nVisitors are down about 8 percent from last year, but it could be worse.\n“We’re actually quite pleased,” Danforth said.\nStevens has drawn customers from other ski areas, he said. “We’ve kind of benefited from Snoqualmie’s misery, I hate to say.”\nThe lower rainfall did mean a slight drop in power production at the Jackson Hydroelectric Project, said Neil Neroutsos, a spokesman for the Snohomish County Public Utility District. The PUD runs Culmback Dam at Spada Lake and a powerhouse downstream. The project supplies about 5 percent of the electricity for Snohomish County and Camano Island.\nBefore last week, rainfall was about three-quarters of average so far for the year measured from July 1 to June 30, Neroutsos said. Annual precipitation at Spada Lake is 163 inches per year, he said.\nMost of the county gets its water through Spada Lake and Lake Chaplain. The city of Everett runs a treatment plant at Lake Chaplain and supplies water to most of the county.\n“We typically see more precipitation in the spring and are not concerned about water supply,” said Meghan Pembroke, spokeswoman for the city of Everett.\nThe National Climate Prediction Center forecasts average precipitation and below-average temperatures for the Pacific Northwest through March.\nWinter’s not over, Murphy cautioned.\n“We’ll just see what happens,” he said. “Mother Nature’s going to exercise that vote she gets.”\nBill Sheets: 425-339-3439; firstname.lastname@example.org.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Thermometer readings have occasionally fallen well below zero or surpassed 100 degrees. Let’s take a look at the highest and lowest records.\nNorth Carolina’s Coldest Day Ever\nThe Tar Heel State reported its most frigid weather in history during January 1985. Mount Mitchell’s temperature dropped to -34 F on the 21st. The equipment that produced this reading was located in the vicinity of the Yancey County mountain’s summit.\nRaleigh also experienced rather chilly conditions on January 21. The local airport’s weather station reported that its thermometer reading had dropped to -9 F. Raleigh’s second-coldest temperature was -2 degrees; observers recorded it 86 years earlier. The city’s nighttime lows normally hover around 30 F in January, according to Intellicast.\nNorth Carolina’s Hottest Day Ever\nNorth Carolina residents encountered much different weather in August 1983. Fayetteville’s temperature soared to 110 F on the 21st. During the same month, the state suffered a persistent drought. Thermometer readings exceeded 100 F for multiple days in numerous locations.\nAlthough Asheville’s high elevation normally protects it from extreme heat, the city became unusually hot on August 21. It set a record high temperature when thermometers hit 100 F. Meanwhile, some parts of South Carolina reached 105 to 108 degrees.\nRaleigh’s Highest Reading\nThis centrally located city has reported the same record high temperature on three different occasions. The airport’s thermometer recently measured 105 degrees during an exceptionally hot day in June 2012. It did the same during August 2007 and July 1952.\nThe 2012 heat wave had a significant impact on the local population. For example, it caused significant damage to Interstate 440. The pavement started to rapidly deteriorate during rush hour. Police had to stop traffic from entering the area, and major road repairs became necessary.\nThe weather usually remains significantly cooler in Raleigh. Residents typically encounter the hottest conditions during July, when the average high reaches 89 F. Intellicast statistics reveal that the city often becomes nearly as hot in June and August.\nProfessional HVAC Services\nA dependable cooling and heating firm can help you contend with North Carolina’s wide range of weather.

Sulfate aerosols in the stratosphere would increase diffuse light received at the surface, but with a non-uniform spectral distribution. We use a radiative transfer model to calculate spectral irradiance for idealized size distributions of sulfate aerosols. A 2% reduction in total irradiance, approximately enough to offset anthropogenic warming for a doubling of CO2 concentrations, brightens the sky (increase in diffuse light) by 3 to 5 times, depending on the aerosol size distribution. The relative increase is less when optically thin cirrus clouds are included in our simulations. Particles with small radii have little influence on the shape of the spectra. Particles of radius ~0.5 µm preferentially increase diffuse irradiance in red wavelengths, whereas large particles (~0.9 µm) preferentially increase diffuse irradiance in blue wavelengths. Spectra show little change in dominant wavelength, indicating little change in sky hue, but all particle size distributions show an increase in white light relative to clear sky conditions. Diffuse sky spectra in our simulations of geoengineering with stratospheric aerosols are similar to those of average conditions in urban areas today.\nCarnegie Institution for Science – Using advanced models, Kravitz and Caldeira—along with Douglas MacMartin from the California Institute of Technology—examined changes to sky color and brightness from using sulfate-based aerosols in this way. They found that, depending on the size of the particles, the sky would whiten during the day and sunsets would have afterglows.\nTheir models predict that the sky would still be blue, but it would be a lighter shade than what most people are used to looking at now. The research team’s work shows that skies everywhere could look like those over urban areas in a world with this type of geoengineering taking place. In urban areas, the sky often looks hazy and white.\n“These results give people one more thing to consider before deciding whether we really want to go down this road,” Kravitz said. “Although our study did not address the potential psychological impact of these changes to the sky, they are important to consider as well.”\nThere are several larger environmental implications to the group’s findings, too. Because plants grow more efficiently under diffuse light conditions such as this, global photosynthetic activity could increase, pulling more of the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere. On the other hand, the effectiveness of solar power could be diminished, as less sunlight would reach solar-power generators.\n“I hope that we never get to the point where people feel the need to spray aerosols in the sky to offset rampant global warming,” Caldeira said. “This is one study where I am not eager to have our predictions proven right by a global stratospheric aerosol layer in the real world.”\nIf you liked this article, please give it a quick review on ycombinator or StumbleUpon.

Several public roads have also been flooded and are impassable.\nIn La Tuque, Highway 25 has been flooded at two points. Rising water levels have made it necessary to place several other roads under surveillance, including Highway 155, which runs parallel to the St. Maurice River.\nThe heavily populated area of Baie-de-Shawinigan is also under flood watch.\nEnvironment Canada predicts 30 to 40 millimetres of rain will fall in the Mauricie region between Monday and Wednesday, which could provoke the worst flooding the region has seen in 40 years.\nMeanwhile, Hydro Méteo, which monitors flooding conditions across the province, reported early Monday that heavy rains would most immediately affect smaller rivers and streams in the province and that the most at-risk areas were the Outaouais, the Laurentians, Lanaudière and the Mauricie.\nOn Monday morning, 66 residents of a seniors residence in Maniwaki were forced to leave after the water levels of the nearby Désert river, a branch of the Outaouais, continued to rise. Some residents were picked up by relatives while others were relocated in other community centres.\nHydro Méteo also noted that the St-Charles river in the Quebec City area had surpassed its minor flooding level as had the Rivière Noire in Lanaudière. Closer to Montreal, the Lake of Two Mountains was also poised to contribute to minor flooding while the Mille Îles, Rivières des Prairies and the Outaouais were also found to be at higher levels.\nOn the South Shore, water levels on the Richelieu River have also risen and the waterway remains under surveillance at least until Tuesday.\nEnvironment Canada is predicting 30 to 50 millimetres of rain will fall in the Montreal area on Monday.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Thailand is situated between the Tropic of Cancer and the Equator (slightly closer to the latter), a geographical position making its climate warm and humid all year round. The humidity level is generally between 70 and 85 per cent, and the temperatures average around 28°C.\nLocated in the Gulf of Thailand, Koh Samui offers all that vacationers from northern countries could dream of regarding weather conditions. They are generally good year round, and the one thing you will rarely feel is cold. The optimum weather conditions can be enjoyed between December and August.\nThe Dry Season\nThe Dry Season in Samui runs roughly from December to February. With warm yet bearable temperatures, little rain, calm seas, and light winds. Many consider this the best time to come. For hotels and every tourist-related businesses, this is peak season.\nThe Hot Season\nThe hottest time of year is between March and April - a great time to visit if you can stand 30°C+ temperatures. Around late April/early May, there is normally a sudden – and, for the locals at least, welcome – increase in precipitation. Paradoxically, from June to August is also considered a mini-high season in Samui. The weather usually follows a pattern: strong daytime sunshine followed by late afternoon thunderstorms. It is indeed very agreeable.\nThe Rainy Season\nSeptember through to November sees the arrival of the monsoon and, therefore, the heaviest rainfall. Even at this time, it doesn’t fall every day and often only in short bursts. The weather can be unpredictable, with slightly rougher seas and winds. Although still great for a beach holiday (less people, lower hotel rates), this is not the best time to come for diving and snorkelling, as visibility is reduced by around 30 per cent.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

I haven’t seen so much rain since the 1998 El Nino storms in Los Angeles. I shut down all the computers as lightning struck the area over and over, and even when the computers were on, I was a bit too distracted to get any work done.\nAs if the rain weren’t enough, a few twisters touched down in the area. The tornado alarms sounded twice here in Franklin on Saturday. We cleared out a closet in the center of the house as our go-to place, just in case. By Sunday, people were forced to flee the rising waters in some parts of town.\nThese are photos of the flood in Franklin. Fortunately, our subdivision is on a hill so the waters didn’t reach us, although the playground at a nearby grade school was overrun by the Harpeth river.\nAs bad as it was in Franklin, some areas had it far worse. This last photo is from an area north of Nashville.\nIf you enjoy my posts, please consider a small donation to the Fat Head Kids GoFundMe campaign.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The precipitation will be accompanied by very strong east to northeast winds.\nCurrent indications suggest that the storm will track through the Bay of Fundy Sunday evening and then into the Gulf of St. Lawrence overnight. This track could give widespread snowfall amounts of 20-60 cm. Rainfall amounts of 10-30 mm are possible over extreme southern regions of the province. An extended period of freezing rain is also possible for areas in southern New Brunswick. It should be noted that even a slight shift in its forecast track will have a major effect on the type and amount of precipitation received.\nResidents should prepare for the possibility that the storm could cause power outages.\nAs the storm is expected to have an impact on the travelling public, the Department of Transportation and Infrastructure will be testing a new feature of NB 511 over the weekend. This Twitter feed is designed to push important transportation notifications to New Brunswickers through automatically generated tweets. The feed, which will not be interactive at this time, will generate the following notifications:\n- Travel not recommended.\n- Road closures.\n- Roads open to emergency and service vehicles only.\n- Ferry notifications.\nResidents are encouraged to follow the NB 511 Twitter @brunswick511.\nMotorists should avoid driving on snow-covered roads and check New Brunswick 511 before travelling\nCarbon monoxide safety measures\nSnow accumulation may increase the risks of carbon monoxide poisoning related to fuel heating systems. Residents should ensure they have a working carbon monoxide (CO) alarm in their homes. This is the first line of defence against this colorless, odorless, tasteless gas formed by the incomplete burning of natural gas, gasoline, kerosene, oil, propane or wood.\nNever run generators or cook with an open flame inside a home or a garage as these activities also create carbon monoxide.\n72 hour preparedness\nNew Brunswickers are reminded to have everything they need for at least 72 hours following a storm. This includes preparing an emergency kit for home and car; knowing what to do during power outages; and knowing how to stay safe during an emergency.\nAn emergency kit should include food, water, batteries, a flashlight, a battery-powered radio, first-aid supplies, cash in small bills in case ATMs are unavailable due to a power outage, and any special items such as prescriptions, infant formula and equipment for people with disabilities.\nFor further updates you may follow the Emergency Measure Organization on Twitter and Facebook, or by visiting the 24/7 emergency updates webpage.

Mother Nature sure is a mad scientist.\nAccording to the National Weather Service, the record high temperature in Connecticut and the Hudson Valley on Wednesday is 63 degrees, and we're expected to crush that number as some places are projected to be in the 70s. It will be a bit cooler at the shore line, but for February, I don't think I'll be hearing anyone complaining.\nIn what has seemed to be a brutally cold winter, we should be getting a little taste of spring this week. The warm-up begins Today with temps into the mid to upper 50s, and then comes Wednesday's record high temps. It won't last long though, temps by the end of the week should be back to around normal for this time of year, and the weekend looks cool and damp.\nThe National Weather Service says:\nAbove normal temperatures will continue through mid week, with highs climbing above 60 from the city north and west on Tuesday and to around 70 on Wednesday. Temperatures will be about 10 degrees cooler across coastal Connecticut.\nSo even though it's only going to warm up for about a day or so, it is a welcome break for this time of year, so get out there and enjoy it.\nRead More Local Stories:\n- Police: 5 Children Found in Danbury After Alleged Kidnapping by Relative\n- Top 5 Artists That Made CT + NY Fall In Love With Country Music\n- Stew Leonard's in Danbury Delivers Yet Another Monumental Treat\n- What's Lurking at the Bottom of Candlewood Lake?\n- Brookfield Home May Have Been a Stop on the Underground Railroad\nHow Do the People of New Milford React to Valentine's Day?\nMr. Morning's Mom Explains How to Add Us to Your Alexa Skills:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It was also fast.\n\"I didn’t even make it to the basement. It was over,” Stone said.\nDespite the brevity of the storm, the damage was obvious. Trees were snapped, uprooted and tossed about like dollhouse toys. Some were toppled or blown into homes and power lines. Plenty of other debris was strewn about.\nThe National Weather Service later said a tornado with a wind speed of 80 mph touched ground in the township.\nStone, who is also a township trustee, said she received weather-related emergency notifications on her mobile phone throughout the night, but nothing specifically about a potential tornado where she lives.\nSocial media users, including some on Anderson Township's Facebook page, are wondering why: Why didn't the sirens go off? Why wasn't a tornado warning issued?\nWhen is a tornado warning issued?\nA tornado warning is issued by the National Weather Service and prompts emergency management agencies to activate outdoor sirens in the affected areas. It also triggers notifications on NOAA weather radio.\nA representative for the NWS in Wilmington wasn't available for immediate comment, but according to the NWS website a warning is issued if a tornado is indicated by radar or sighted by spotters and are usually issued for about 30 minutes.\nA tornado warning is the only weather event that prompts siren activation said Pam Haverkos, director of the Clermont County Emergency Management Agency. This is an agreed upon practice among more than 10 counties in the region including Butler, Clermont, Hamilton and Warren counties in Ohio, Boone, Kenton and Campbell counties in Kentucky and Dearborn County in Indiana.\nWhen the tornado hit Anderson Township there was a tornado watch and severe thunderstorm warning issued, said Nick Crossley, director of the Hamilton County Emergency Management and Homeland Security Agency. Both were “well-promoted by the National Weather Service, our agency and local news media,” he said.\n“When there is a tornado watch in effect, residents should be indoors and pay closer attention to what is happening with the weather,” Crossley said.\nSome people rely on the outdoor sirens for notification when they are indoors, a practice that is discouraged by representatives of local emergency management organizations.\nPeople forget that on a clear day when sirens are tested, they are easy to hear, said Haverkos.\n\"On a stormy day, you can’t hear it indoors. That’s not their purpose,\" she said. The sirens are intended to notify people who are outdoors in places like golf courses or baseball fields.\nThe sirens can also be triggered if there's a hazardous material spill, Haverkos said.\nWhenever the sirens sound, residents are advised to tune to local media or another source for additional information.\nBoone County sirens sound, but late for some\nIn Union, Ky., where Tom Scheben lives, a storm hit like “a ton of lead” Wednesday morning. Scheben is a spokesman for the Boone County Emergency Management Agency. The NWS issued a warning for the storm at 7:20 a.m., he said. That signal went off when it was supposed to, according to Scheben, but about 10 minutes after the storm passed his home.\nOn social media, some people in Boone County commented about the sirens going off after the storm. It was a line of discussion that Jeremy Flowers of Pendleton County took issue with on the Boone County Neighborhood Facebook Group.\n“In today’s technology and information age, there is no excuse not to be prepared,” he wrote in his post.\nFlowers said he lives 15 minutes from Alexandria in Butler. He typically travels through Kenton and Boone counties on his way to work every morning, about the same time the storms hit Wednesday. Fortunately, he had an off day and wasn’t traveling.\n“Folks should use all means possible to receive weather alerts and not just rely on sirens or mobile devices, etcetera,” he said. “I know it’s easy to get caught up in life and depend on electronics, but these storms were predicted to be severe 12-plus hours in advance and arrived in time for morning rush.”\nHe pointed out that the NOAA weather radio is a direct source to the NWS and provides instant notifications.\nScheben could not explain the timing of the Boone County sirens but pointed out that storms are not static. They are quick moving, he said. With or without sirens, Scheben said he was aware of the storm and tuned in to other outlets for information, a practice he advised others to adopt. He also recommended residents visit www.boonecountyky.org to enroll in the Code Red notification system.\n“Unfortunately, people wait until the disaster happens,” he said. “And they want to know why and how.

It is currently 200 km southeast of Gopalpur, Odisha and the wind speed will go up to 210 to 240 km per hour, the Met department said. “At the time of crossing coast, it will remain a very severe storm even after 6 hours of making landfall. Heavy to very heavy rainfall at most places, extremely heavy rainfall in isolated spots in Odisha and heavy to very rain in coastal areas of AP is expected. Jharkhand and Chhatisgarh will get heavy to very heavy rains,” said LK Rathore, DG, Cyclone Centre, IMD.\n10:59 am: MoS PMO V Narayanasamy said, “AK Antony has monitored the preparations. The Army, Navy and other defence teams are on the field. The governments of both the states are gearing up to face the cyclone.” IMD says it is a very severe cyclonic storm “At the time of crossing coast, it will remain a very severe storm even after 6 hours of making landfall,” the Met department said.\n10:44 am: The Indian Air Force says that the C17 aircraft has lifted 60 tonnes of load including vehicles and boats to Bhubaneswar.\n10:35 am: Four teams consisting of approximately 500 Army men have been moved to the coastal districts with relief material and medical arrangement. The columns are equipped with mechanical powered boats, life jackets, life saving medicine including other rescue material.\n10:16 am: One person has died in Bhubaneswar after a tree fell on him during heavy rains as cyclone Phailin approaches the Odisha coast. High speed winds and rains have also affected electric poles and durga puja pandals in Bhubaneswar. In Gopalpur, where Phailin is expected to make landfall by 5:30 pm, high tides are being seen in the sea.\nThe Met department has now said that Phailin is a very severe ‘super cyclone’ and its wind speed may go up to 200 and 240 km per hour by noon itself. Phailin, a storm as big as Hurricane Katrina that left New Orleans a ghost town, is heading towards northern Andhra Pradesh and Odisha and is expected to make landfall at 5:30 pm on Saturday. It has started raining in Andhra Pradesh as well as Odisha and the Met department has predicted heavy rainfall at most places in the two states for the next 48 hours.\nTotal suspension of fishing operations has been advised. The latest satellite images show a very severe cyclonic storm over West-central and adjoining east central Bay of Bengal which is moving northwards for the past six hours. It is at a distance of 320 km southeast of Gopalpur. High tides are already being seen in the sea at Gopalpur. In Bhubaneswar, it has been raining with a high wind speed, affecting electricity poles and durga puja pandals.\nThe cyclone will hit the coast between Paradip in Odisha and Kalingapatnam in Andhra Pradesh. It could hit with wind speeds similar to the cyclone that left 10,000 people dead in 1999 in Odisha. Carrying their baggage, thousands of people are leaving the port town of Paradip to escape the wrath of the severe cyclonic storm. The people, most of them workers of different industries including Oil Refinery of Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL), Paradip Port Trust (PPT), Paradip Phosphates Limited (PPL), IFFCO and Essar steel plant, have started vacating the town since Thursday. “Over 30,000 people vacated the town and it is still continuing,” official sources said.\nThe port town of Paraip in Jagatsinghpur was the epicentre of 1999 Super Cyclone with Ersame block bearing the maximum brunt of the natural disaster. Over 2,60,000 people have been evacuated and more are being shifted to safer ground. The Navy, the Air Force, the National Disaster Response Force are on standby. The Odisha government has also asked for RBI’s support to provide government payments towards relief expenditure. The good news is that this time around the Odisha government seems to be much more well prepared in comparison to the super cyclone in 1999. Since then, 247 cyclone shelters have been built in the coastal areas and the people and the rescue team in the state are much more well prepared to face such disasters. Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has appealed to the people not to panic.\n“I appeal to all to people in Odisha to be calm and not panic. In such disaster situation there are some people who indulge in hoarding and blackmarketing. They won’t be spared if they do so,” Patnaik said. The administration says evacuations will be completed by Saturday morning in the four most vulnerable districts – Puri, Khurda, Jagatsinghpur and Ganjam. The Odisha health department cancelled holidays and leave of all doctors in view of the impending situation even as the state government set a target of “zero casualty” and ordered speedy evacuation of people in seven coastal districts. Evacuations are on in neighbouring Andhra Pradesh too.\nThe Met department has warned of maximum damage to the three north coastal districts of Srikakulam, Vizianagaram and Vishakapatnam. The police have relaxed the curfew for 9 hours to enable citizens to stock up on essentials. Government employees on strike against the bifurcation of the state have also resumed duties to enable rescue and rehabilitation operations. Medical teams of Union Health Ministry are also getting ready to travel to the two states at a short notice. Emergency food supplies and shelters for people expected to flee the heavy winds and rains were also being readied in the vulnerable districts.\nDisaster management teams were also kept in readiness. The IAF has deployed 24 aircraft including its transport planes such as Ilyushin-76, C-130J Super Hercules and the Antonv-32 along with 18 helicopters. “The Defence Minister has directed the armed forces to be on high alert and asked them to be ready to move in for relief operations when required,” a Defence Ministry official said in Delhi. The other regions which are expected to be affected by the cyclone include North Chhattisgarh, South Jharkhand, Eastern Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and Gangetic West Bengal.\nFollowing are the helpline numbers:\nDistrict control room number:\nAndhra Pradesh: 040-23456005/23451043","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The work was presentedat the annual Meeting of the Division of Planetary Sciences of theAmerican Astronomical Society at National Harbor, Maryland.\nOn any given night youstand a decent chance of catching sight of a meteor – one ofcountless tiny grains of dust that are thrown off in the wake of apassing comet, that burn up in our atmosphere, creating a visiblestreak of light that has given birth to the moniker, shooting star.\nEarth is not the onlyplanet to be showered with extraterrestrial materials. In October2014, MAVEN recorded the effects of tons of comet material raining down on the Martian atmosphere from Siding Spring.\nFor planets likeEarth, that boast very thick atmospheres, the phenomenon isrelatively inconsequential, but for other bodies, like Mercury –which is shrouded by a tenuous cloud of atomic particles known as asurface boundary exosphere – the passing of a comet can have asignificant impact on atmospheric composition.\nThe recent studyfocused on an analysis of data collected by NASA's MErcury SurfaceSpace ENvironment, GEochemistry, and Ranging (MESSENGER) spacecraftas it orbited the planet from March 2011 up to its demise in Aprilthis year. Over the course of its operational life, MESSENGER wasable to observe the interaction between dust particles thrown off bythe comet Encke, and the altering composition of the planet's fragilesurface boundary exosphere.\nIt was discovered thatthere was a clear pattern in Mercury's atmospheric calcium levelsthat repeated each year at around the same time. It was theorizedthat dust thrown off by Encke over thousands of years was strikingMercury as it swept through the comet's orbital path, throwing upcalcium from the planet's surface.\nHowever, the timing ofthe closest point of interaction between the orbits of Mercury andEncke occurred roughly a week after the yearly calcium peak observedby MESSENGER. This meant that the comet's dust trail must havesomehow deviated from Encke's extremely stable orbital path, whichbrings it within 31 million miles (50 million km) of the Sun onceevery 3.3 years.\nTo solve the mystery, ateam of researchers ran complex computer simulations taking in toaccount the most accurate estimations of Encke's orbital path overthousands of years, and the behaviour of the dust stream this wouldhave created. From the simulations, it appears likely that thedeviation is likely the result of the subtle force exerted onparticles by sunlight from our star.\nBased on this analysis,it is theorized that the dust particles currently striking Mercurymeasure around 1 mm in size, and where dispersed by Encke between 10– 20 thousand years ago. These particles would have been just theright size for the influence from the Sun to shift their orbit to thecorrect location to account for the calcium spikes.\nThe study of comets hasbeen a popular subject of late thanks to the incredible success ofESA's Rosetta mission, and research of the type outlined aboveprovides a wider viewing lens for some of the more subtle impactsthat the celestial wanderers have on the planets that make up oursolar system.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It's going to be cold, though.\nAccuweather forecasters predict 36 degrees and a 30 percent chance of snow for Super Bowl XLVIII, the first played outdoors in a northern city. But predictions are imprecise this far out.\nSyracuse meteorologist Wayne Mahar, who runs his own weather prediction company, said there's a nebulous weather system developing that could bring rain or snow to New Jersey sometime around kickoff at MetLife Stadium.\n\"Nobody can tell you right now the exact timing on this system,\" said Mahar, a meteorologist at CNY Central. \"You get a change over the next 12 days of 12 hours of timing of that system - it slows up, it speeds up - and you go from partly sunny and cold to snowy and cold.\"\nIf it doesn't snow during the game, he said, there will likely be some snow on the ground from the storm that just passed through.\nMahar said his private forecasting company, Precision Weather Service, has several clients holding outdoor events around the Super Bowl. He is telling them one thing for sure: Expect it to be cold. Not Green-Bay-in-December cold, but colder than the average 39-degree high for East Rutherford in early February.\n\"I think it's going to be 5 to 10 degrees colder,\" Mahar said. \"This pattern tends to be a little windier than usual, so you've got a little bit of a higher wind chill, too.\"\nIt's the first time the NFL title game has been played outdoors in a city that regularly sees snow. The Super Bowl has been held twice in the Detroit area and once each in Indianapolis and Minnesota, but all in domed stadiums.\nMahar said the forecast will be clearer early next week, after a storm passes up the East Coast and through New Jersey.\nAccuweather's four-person meteorologist team says snow is unlikely for the Super Bowl -- although the background of the website devoted to the game's predictions is a large snowflake overlaid on a football field.\nThree of the four Accuweather meteorologists say \"no\" to snow at the Super Bowl. They say the game-time temperature will be 36 degrees.\nThe weather on Feb. 2 might determine whether the NFL will have another outdoor, cold-weather Super Bowl, Mahar said.\n\"To have a Super Bowl in a major (northern) city outdoors -- that's either going to be an experiment they like or they're going to end up saying, 'We'll never want to do that again,'\" he said.\nContact Glenn Coin at email@example.com or 315-470-3251.

Adding woes to the situation, the meteorological department has predicted more rains on Tuesday and Wednesday in Kolkata and several districts in South Bengal.\nContinuous rains for the last two days have flooded most parts of the city. Southern parts of the city including Behala, Mominpur, Ekbalpur, Khidderpore, Kalighat have been completely inundated. Water entered into premier government hospitals like SSKM, NRS Medical College and Hospital and Calcutta Medical College and Hospital. There is water inside several wards creating problems for the patients, doctors and nurses.\nThe water also entered Netaji Subhash International Airport causing disruption in flight services. According to airport authorities, 13 planes that were supposed to take-off have been delayed from 45 minutes to 2 hours because of water on the runway. Besides, six planes have been diverted because they couldn't land because of the water on the runway.\nOn the other hand several areas of Ultadanga, Maniktala, Belgachia are under knee deep water. The heavy downpour threw the city out of gear and several areas in the city particularly areas in central and south Kolkata were below the water. Areas like Behala, MG Road, Park Circus, Park Street, Theatre Road, Shakespeare Sarani were under knee deep water. People had to wade through the water to reach their working places.\nAccording to the weather department, the cyclone formed over the Gangetic West Bengal is gradually moving westwards. Now it extends up to 5.8 km above the ground. At the same time, the seasonal axis extends from Goa over Kolkata to the southeast to the northeast Bay of Bengal. As a result, light to moderate rainfall with thunderstorms will continue across the state even on Tuesday.\nThe department also said that heavy rains are expected in Bankura, Purulia, Jhargram, East Midnapore, West Midnapore and South 24 Parganas on Tuesday. The meteorological office has issued several warnings due to continuous rains. The torrential rains are expected to cause damage to vegetables and crops in the field.\nDue to continuous rains, several villages of Patashpur, Bhagwanpur and Egra assembly constituencies of East Midnapore district and several villages of Kanthi North and South assembly constituencies have been inundated. More than two lakh families have been inundated across the district. East Midnapore district magistrate Purnendu Majhi said, about 80,000 people have been rescued and taken to safety.

Temperatures bottomed out at 60 degrees at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport.\nTemperatures have risen, but only to the low 80s, according to Channel 2. The city has peaked at 83 degrees, which is one degree warmer than projected.\n“It is feeling very fall-like,” Walls said.\nOnce the sun goes down, temperatures will still be comfortable. In the northern Atlanta suburbs, numbers could dip into the mid-60s before the end of high school football games, according to Channel 2.\nWalls said the city will run a little warmer.\n“For those of you heading out this evening, whether it’s for Friday night lights or just to enjoy a night on the town, at 7 p.m. those temperatures running in the lower 70s,” she said. “Cooling into the lower 70s by 9 p.m.”\nThe clear skies will continue through the overnight hours, she said. Another morning in the 50s is in the forecast Saturday.\n“At this point, your Saturday morning is starting out mostly sunny, a little bit more cloud cover, but again those morning lows on the cool and comfortable side,” she said. “If you wish, you can open up those windows yet again and let nature’s air conditioning do its job.”\nBy the afternoon, temperatures are expected to rebound into the upper 80s. The return of 90-degree heat is just days away, Walls said.\nThrough the start of next week, no rain is in the forecast. The drought in Georgia is getting worse, Walls said. About 40% of the state was in some form of drought last week, but as of Thursday, drought conditions are now in place for 65% of the state.\nProlonged dry conditions are a far cry from the historic flooding that left much of metro Atlanta underwater and claimed 10 lives in September 2009. Thursday was the 10-year anniversary of the floods.\nWalls said it may be hard to imagine given current conditions, but flooding on an epic scale could happen again. It is not a matter of if, she said, it’s when.\n“As the metro grows, the risk for flash flooding is actually going up,” she said.\nUrban growth brings more concrete and fewer trees, both of which contribute to increased risk for flash flooding. Anytime rainfall amounts exceed normal levels, flooding is possible, Walls said.\n“While the chances of getting 10 inches of rain in one day is 1 in 10,000, daily thunderstorms can produce up to 3 inches on any given afternoon,” she said. “We saw it last Friday night. We had some of that flash flooding, and it was because there was not enough areas for that water to flow.”\nCurrently, the worst drought conditions are in North Georgia. Atlanta has received only two-tenths of rainfall in September, and areas on the Southside are experiencing severe drought, according to Channel 2.\n“At least cooler temperatures today will help a bit,” Walls said.\n» For a detailed forecast, visit The Atlanta Journal-Constitution weather page.\n» For updated traffic information, listen to News 95.5 and AM 750 WSB and follow @ajcwsbtraffic on Twitter.\n» Download The Atlanta Journal-Constitution app for weather alerts on-the-go.\nSupport real journalism.

While the National Climactic Data Center has only been tracking daily numbers for a little over a year, Derek Arndt, head of climate monitoring at the center, said it's still impressive given that records aren't usually set until July or August.\nOrganizations and individuals are seeing the effects from the heat. Churchill Downs, the famed racetrack in Louisville, Kentucky, cancelled races at the end of last week because of the scorching temperatures. Track spokesman Darren Rodgers told the Huffington Post that it was the first time the venue has cancelled racing due to extreme heat.\nDue to intense winds, areas in the Midwest and east coast suffered power outages, some of which are expected to last through the fourth of July and leave many Americans without the possibility of air conditioning. For example, West Virginia had 460,000 individuals without power on Sunday night, according to the Associated Press, while Maryland had 545,000 in the dark.\nDan Porter, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, told the Wall Street Journal that as of June 24, 1,587 communities have reported record temperatures, including 105 degrees in Denver and 111 degrees in Dodge City, Kansas.\nAs previously reported on in this blog, changes in global temperatures have only added to the possibilities of increased wildfires for the next decade.

Such an outlook is bullish for natural gas because nearly half of all U.S. households use the fuel as their primary heating source, according to the Energy Information Administration.\nThe winter storm, blamed for at least eight deaths over the weekend, could affect the Mid-Atlantic and New England regions of the U.S., beginning on Tuesday, when millions of Americans will be traveling for the Thanksgiving holiday.\nThe storm is expected to bring light snow or a wintry mix, before the precipitation changes over to heavy rain, according to the National Weather Service.\n\"The possibility for rather extreme weather has gone up and there's a perception in the market that we have to be buyers of natural gas because of this weather,\" said Robert Yawger, director of energy futures at Mizuho Securities USA.\nBeyond that weather system, long range forecasts are also continuing to predict chillier temperatures.\nIn a research note, WSI Corp., an Andover, Mass., weather forecaster, said there is \"generally excellent agreement...that one of the coldest air masses thus far for the year could impact the central U.S.\" during the next 11 to 15 days.\nLast week, MDA Weather Services, a Gaithersburg, Md., weather forecaster, said it expects the coldest Thanksgiving weather in the Midwest and East since 1955.\nWith colder-than-normal temperatures, natural gas supplies fell by 45 billion cubic feet for the week ended Nov. 15, according to government data. The drop was larger than the 36 bcf decline expected by analysts.\nTotal natural gas stockpiles now stand at 3.789 trillion cubic feet, down 2.3% from record-high year-ago levels and 0.4% above the five-year average for the week.\nJim Ritterbusch, president of energy-trading advisory firm Ritterbusch & Associates, said forecasts for below-normal-temperatures through the first week of December, likely means that the size of natural gas storage withdrawals will likely increase \"appreciably\" in the next three EIA reports and \"possibly beyond.\"\nNatural gas for next-day delivery at the benchmark Henry Hub in Louisiana recently traded at $3.865/mmBtu, according to IntercontinentalExchange, versus Friday's average of $3.78/mmBtu.\nNatural gas for next-day delivery at Transcontinental Zone 6 in New York traded at $4.25/mmBtu, compared with $5.38/mmBtu on Friday.\nWrite to Brett Philbin at email@example.com\nBy Brett Philbin\nNEW YORK--Natural gas futures climbed to a five-month high Wednesday despite the release of a closely-watched U.S. government storage report, which showed that stockpiles fell less than expected last week.\nThe gains came as traders focused on the potential for higher demand for the heating fuel with chillier temperatures projected in the near future.\nNatural gas for January delivery climbed as much as 5.4 cents, or 1.4%, to $3.918 a million British thermal units on the New York Mercantile Exchange, its highest intraday price since June 20. The contract was recently up 3.8 cents, or 1%, at $3.901/mmBtu.\nIn the report, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said natural gas supplies fell by 13 billion cubic feet in the week ended Nov. 22, less than analysts' forecast for a decline of 18 bcf.\nAccording to the EIA data, natural gas inventories totaled 3.776 trillion cubic feet, 2.6% below the exceptionally high year-ago level and 0.5% above the five-year average for the same week. The EIA report was issued a day earlier than normal because of the U.S. Thanksgiving Day holiday Thursday.\nMarket participants said the data didn't send prices lower because trading continues to be driven mainly by weather forecasts and the withdrawal came in near the 15 bcf average drawdown over the past five years.\n\"Given we have the whole winter in front of us and a potential for a sizeable withdrawal next week, there is a real reluctance for sellers to be too aggressive,\" said Gene McGillian, broker and analyst at Tradition Energy in Stamford, Conn.\nA recent cold snap across much of the country has investors looking ahead to a possible larger supply withdrawal next week. Such weather is bullish for natural gas because roughly half of all U.S. households rely on the fuel as their primary heating source, according to EIA data.\nIn a research note, MDA Weather Services, a Gaithersburg, Md., weather forecaster, said it expects \"widespread and stronger cold\" across the northern Midwest region of the country in the next 11 to 15 days.\n\"The market continues to price in winter heating risk, but whether it has the makings for significant gains remains to be seen,\" Mr. McGillian said.\nNatural gas futures rose by 26.2 cents, or 7.4%, over the previous five trading sessions, boosted by the recent cold spell. The sharp rise sent Nymex December-delivery gas to a six-week high of $3.818 per million British thermal units Wednesday, the highest expiration day settlement since May.\nHowever, domestic natural gas output continues to soar to record highs as hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling techniques allow energy companies to extract supplies trapped in shale-gas fields.

This study simultaneously incorporates all important econometric modeling features cited in the prior literature. We find that a 10-percent increase in PM concentration results in a statistically-significant 1.1-percent decrease in value.

We were wearing shorts.\"\nTo be precise, the temperature that day had been a record 76 degrees.\nBut it's no longer March 2012, an anomaly, when temperatures climbed well into the 80s, breaking several records. Never had a spring felt like so much like a summer.\nIt's definitely a little colder now, even for March. But it's also back to normal, more or less.\n\"It's the 31st coldest start to March,\" said Nick Greenawalt, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service office in Syracuse, citing data going back to 1912.\nThe average temperature for March is 38.4 degrees, according to Greenawalt. Through Tuesday, the average temp for March 2013 was 32.2 degrees.\n\"That's not a terribly big difference,\" Greenawalt said.\nStill, we could be in store for another record if the average temperature for the month stays in that 32-degree range.\nLast year's average temperature for March was 52.6 degrees, the highest ever recorded in Fort Wayne, breaking the previous record of 48.1 degrees set in 1946.\nThat made Greenawalt curious, and he began poring over data: Never in the past 101 years have the same months of consecutive years shown a 20-degree difference in average temperature. But that's within reach.\n\"It's certainly possible, unless there's some warmer weather,\" Greenawalt said.\nThe forecast through the start of next week calls for highs in the upper 30s to lower 40s and lows in the 20s. Some snow is also possible.\nOn Thursday, Fort Wayne was treated to a record low for March 21 when the temperature dipped to 11 degrees, breaking the previous mark of 12 degrees set in 1906 and tied in 1960.\nLast year, the area was stuck under a ridge of high pressure that brought a southerly flow, Greenawalt said. That's what accounted for nine straight days of record highs – March 14 to 22. On March 21, it hit 87 degrees, the highest temperature ever seen in March.\nThis year, there's a trough of low pressure sitting over the northeast part of North America, causing the current temperatures. So instead of fun and sun, we've been getting snow and ice.\nInstead of trips to the fountains at Headwaters Park, we've been getting frozen ponds, cars sliding off the road and a wind that can really nip the nose.\nAnd it might not be letting up anytime soon, if the weather service's preliminary indications hold out.\n\"The pattern is really anchored in here, at least through the end of the month,\" Greenawalt said. \"Once we get toward the end of the month and early April, we might get some southerly flow and warmer temperatures.\"\nWhich means you shouldn't put away your sweaters and coats just yet, and if you find yourself outside at a beer tent or bar or concert amid a crowd, do yourself a favor:\nPut on a sweatshirt.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Wind gusts in some areas reached 110 kilometers per hour, and flash flooding and power cuts were reported from Far North Queensland to Tasmania in the South.\nState Emergency Services (SES) crews are stretched to the limit, working into the night to cope with the effects of the freak weather.\nAround 29,000 homes in Queensland experienced power outages.\nSixty millimetres of rain fell in an hour on the region around Herberton, in Far North Queensland. A man and woman were rescued from nearby Sandy Creek after their car was swept off the road while trying to cross the Creek during heavy storms last night.\nThe man had escaped to cling to a tree, but lost sight of his wife as the car was washed away. Rescuers later found the woman on the bank. Neither was seriously injured.\nAbout 150 kilometres to the south-west, a search continues for missing stockman, a 38-year-old from Carpentaria Downs Station near Einasleigh who failed to return after checking fences yesterday.\nHeavy rain and large hailstones pummelled Sydney and the Central Coast.\n\"Most of those jobs have been for hail damage to roofs, fallen trees on houses and across roads, flash flooding and water getting into properties,\" said SES spokesman David Webber.\nAround 100,000 homes in NSW experienced power outages.\nIn the southern Sydney suburb of Bexley North three people were rescued from vehicles when they attempted to drive along a flooded road, and a girl was killed near Mittagong when a tree fell on the tent in which she was sleeping.\nMelbourne has been hit by severe flooding as wild storms and heavy rain strike the east coast of Australia. With triple the city's average February rainfall in just 24 hours, major roads and train lines have been cut and travel is extremely difficult.\nA search involving police and State Emergency Service volunteers is currently underway for a schoolboy, believed to have been swept into floodwaters north of Werribee, and a 10 year old girl narrowly escaped being killed when a tree fell through the house in which she was sleeping. The tree missed her by centimeters. She was trapped for an hour before being freed by emergency services and taken to the Royal Childrens Hospital in a serious condition.\nThe city received 120mm of rain in the 24 hours to 9am, while the average monthly rainfall for February is 45mm. Making this the largest measured rainfall in a 24 hour period for Melbourne since records began in 1856. The rainfall stopped sometime this afternoon local time.

Predictions are that 2010 may be a very active season due to a waning El Nino and warmer waters in both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.\nIf your RVing plans include travel to anywhere in the U.S. southeast, Atlantic coastal states and provinces, or Gulf of Mexico states, you need to know a little bit about hurricanes.\nFirst, hurricanes are big, really really big. The average hurricane is 200-400 miles across. Big ones will be 550-plus miles.\nSecond, they don't occur suddenly, like in the movies. It takes days and weeks for hurricanes to build from tropical depression, to tropical storm, and finally to hurricane. There is plenty of warning before a hurricane hits.\nThird, hurricanes don't travel very fast. They average 10-20 miles an hour, though on rare occasions they can move along as fast as 70 mph or creep along at two or three.\nFourth, hurricanes don't travel in straight lines. They take curving paths, often looping and backtracking and zig-zagging.\nFifth, hurricanes can have tremendous amounts of rain or very little.\nSixth, hurricanes have an eye, the centre of the storm. The eye can be from five to 120 miles across with most being 20-40. In the eye it can be eerily calm with clear skies, fooling people into thinking the storm is over, causing them to come outside to see the damage. However, once the eye passes over, there is the other half of the storm still left to endure, with sudden ferocious winds coming from the opposite direction.\nSeventh, the worst winds tend to be in the northeast quadrant of the storm.\nEight, the sustained winds of a hurricane (74 to over 190 mph) are bad and cause a lot of damage. However, hurricanes tend to spawn many tornadoes which cause much of the damage.\nNinth, flying debris can be a bigger hazard than the wind itself.\nTenth, hurricanes are tropical but are not restricted to tropical areas, the coast, or the summer. Some of the worst and most damaging hurricanes have hit in the Carolinas and northward in September. August and September are the months with the most hurricanes.\nWhat should you do if a hurricane is headed your way? Don't risk it. Evacuate -and do so early. Because hurricanes are so large and their path of travel is so variable, it will take time, maybe days, to drive your way out of danger.\nIf you wait too long before evacuating it's likely you will get caught in a major traffic snarl along with all the other late evacuees, and you may not reach safety before the rain and winds of the hurricane or its outer bands reach you.\nYou may run out of fuel. There will likely be fuel shortages (because everybody is buying and stockpiling fuel) and you may not be able to buy fuel to complete your evacuation. If you must stay put, get prepared.\nGet as much water as you can - fill bottles, tubs, tanks, buckets, anything you can find with water.\nHave plenty of nonperishable food and food that doesn't have to be cooked, heated, prepared or refrigerated.\nHave a good supply of drinks and juices.\nBe sure you have a mechanical can opener.\nHave a way to cook food other than with electricity, such as a grill that uses wood, charcoal, or gas.\nGet plenty of batteries\nBe sure you have plenty of personal items, diapers for babies.\nHave a good supply of first aid items.\nBe sure to have plenty of necessary prescription medications -- get refills.\nIf at all possible, cover your windows.\nPosition your RV so that it noses into the wind if you can. Be aware that the wind direction will change as the storm moves through.\nClose vents, latch doors.\nPark close to a building on the side opposite of the expected predominent wind direction.\nMove your RV away from trees -far enough that it can't be reached if trees are blown over.\nHave a portable radio/TV so that you can keep up with the latest on the hurricane track and local news and conditions.\nAbove all, think, use your common sense, don't take risks, be wary, be safe.\nHere are some websites to check for more information about hurricanes:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Hail and tornadoes were possible, forecasters said.\nBut Davyon Hill, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Shreveport, La., said this storm system was not expected to drop the kind of record-setting rains that the region has seen recently.\n“At this point, any rain will aggravate the flooding situation,” he said. “But these (storms) are kind of fast moving and isolated.”\nOn Sunday, President Barack Obama signed an order declaring the flooding in Louisiana a major disaster. The president’s declaration triggers federal aid for flood victims.\nLouisiana Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser said he was worried that many flood victims had not purchased flood insurance.\n“A lot of these people I spoke to did not have flood insurance because they had never flooded before,” Nungesser said in a telephone interview.\nHe warned that residents may not get federal disaster aid if they didn’t have insurance. “It’s not going to be the open check book,” he added.\nDownpours — part of a system affecting Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Tennessee and Alabama — have submerged roads and cars, washed out bridges and forced residents to flee homes.\nOn Sunday, Mississippi officials said they were still looking for two missing fishermen, but had no reports of injuries or deaths there. At least three people have died in Louisiana, authorities said.\nFlooding on rain-swollen rivers remained a major concern.\nIt’s the most widespread non-hurricane flooding the Louisiana National Guard has ever dealt with, said Col. Pete Schneider, a Guard spokesman.\nThe National Guard said it had about 1,400 soldiers and air crews at work in flooded areas throughout Louisiana. By Sunday morning, National Guard crews had evacuated more than 2,415 people and 197 pets.\nIn Tennessee, Emergency Management Agency Director Rickey Graves in Gibson County told The Jackson Sun that about 10 homes in the Kenton community and a half-dozen homes in Trenton were evacuated Saturday night after a levee was breached.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Sunday will be a transition day with a touch of snow as a system approaches from the northwest. That system will bring another spring snowstorm to our patrol zone late Sunday to Tuesday. The best morning for powder should be Tuesday morning, but it’ll be heavy powder.\nMy gut is that this system doesn’t look quite as promising as many of the previous storms this spring, both from a storm location standpoint and wind strength standpoint, but let’s hope I’m wrong. One potential upside is that a jet streak may assist on Tuesday, which are notoriously unpredictable. Here are the various model snow forecasts for our patrol zone from Sunday to Tuesday:\n10” – Canadian and American Models\n7” – UK Met Model\n6” – European Model\nWeather looks to warm back up Starting on Wednesday. Due to sun and heat, we may start to see a big wet avalanche cycle by next weekend (5/15-5/16), but that’s practically in forecast fairyland.\nThe storm came in three waves, and Eldora’s snow-cam shows a total of 13” from the storm (8” in the first wave, 3” in the second wave, and 2” in the third wave). So, the American Model (and for all intents and purposes the RDPS Model) were spot-on for the total snow, with the WRF Model being a little high, the European and Canadian Models being a little low, with the UK Met and NAM Models even lower. Interestingly, while the first two waves felt like Pacific Northwest style heavy snow, the third wave was assisted by the jet streak and had a much more powdery feel to it.\nFYI, I may not update this forecast until after this upcoming storm. Depending on how things look then, I may try to wrap up the season’s forecasts after that with a winter retrospective discussion. Fingers crossed the storms keep coming, so I keep doing the forecasts for a bit more, as we’d all love more snow.\n-Jordan (Thursday morning)\nNote: Unless otherwise noted, all forecasts are for 10,000’ in exposed areas.

They used an instrument called a Lightning Mapping Array to study electrical activity during a volcanic eruption. The arrays have been deployed at volcanoes only twice before. Thousands of individual segments of a single lightning stroke can be mapped with the Lightning Mapping Array; later on scientists can analyze the data to learn how lightning is started and how it spreads through a thunderstorm, or in a volcanic plume.\nWhen Alaska's Redoubt Volcano started rumbling in January, a team of researchers hurried to set up a series of the arrays along the east side of Cook Inlet, across from the volcano. When the volcano erupted on March 22 and 23, 2009, the arrays collected dramatic information about the electricity created within volcanic plumes, and the lightning produced in these plumes.\n\"For the first time, we had the Lightning Mapping Array on site before the initial eruption,\" said scientist Sonja Behnke of New Mexico Tech.\n\"The data will allow us to better understand the electrical charge structure inside a volcanic plume,\" said scientist Ron Thomas of New Mexico Tech. \"That should help us learn how the plume is becoming electrified, and how it evolves over time.\"\nBradley Smull, program director in the National Science Foundation (NSF)'s Division of Atmospheric Sciences, said the information will give scientists insights into the electrical mechanisms in both plumes above active volcanoes, and in lightning spawned in thunderstorms. Portable Lightning Mapping Arrays are being used by meteorologists to issue weather warnings.\nRedoubt was \"a perfect laboratory,\" said physicist Paul Krehbiel of New Mexico Tech. \"It erupted on schedule--and gave us two months' notice.\" Because of this advance notice, scientists were able to set up the sensors prior to the eruptions, and because of this scientists are going to be able to learn a lot about electrical charges and lightning in volcanic plumes.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said today that he will introduce legislation to move aggressively to reverse global warming.\n“The scientific data is clear that global warming is real and significantly caused by greenhouse gas emissions from burning fossil fuels,” Sanders said.\n“After the hottest year on record and extreme weather disturbances such as Hurricane Sandy, we must take strong action to transform our energy system away from fossil fuels and move toward energy efficiency and sustainable energy,” Sanders added. “I intend to introduce legislation in the Senate to do just that.”\nSanders’ legislation will include a transparent fee on greenhouse gas emissions from the biggest polluters. It will call for an historic investment in efficiency, sustainable energy, advanced transportation infrastructure, and clean energy research and development. The measure also would end fossil fuel subsidies and tax breaks.\nThe annual U.S. temperature last year was 55.32 degrees Fahrenheit, a full degree warmer than the old record set in 1998, the National Climatic Data Center in Asheville, N.C., announced on Tuesday. Scientists say the temperature increases are happening faster than they expected and that the warming trend is a result of climate change caused by man-made greenhouse gas emissions.\nThe problem is global. Record temperatures in Australia, for example, produced what the government called “catastrophic” fire conditions in the most populace part of the continent. The average temperature across Australia on Tuesday was the highest since statistics began being kept in 1911.\nThe United States in recent years has doubled electricity generation from wind and solar power sources and enacted fuel economy standards that will help our cars and trucks get to 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025. “But we are not doing nearly enough,” Sanders said. “That is why I will be introducing legislation that would deal realistically with the crisis in a way that is aggressive but achievable.”\nFRIENDS: Now More Than Ever\nIndependent journalism has become the last firewall against government and corporate lies. Yet, with frightening regularity, independent media sources are losing funding, closing down or being blacked out by Google and Facebook. Never before has independent media been more endangered.

My feet don't hurt until the end of the day because it's so hot it makes the rubber, like nothing.\"\nMost areas in the Valley have seen several consecutive days of temperatures at 100 or above.\nKevin Durfee with the National Weather Service says Fresno is expected to break its record of 21 straight days of triple digits, all thanks to an area of high pressure.\n\"It's anchored over California. It's like a tall mountain of very dry, warm, and stable air.

In fact, we had a heat wave in July of 2006 that was actually worse than this, when low temperatures never got below 90 degrees in Fresno.\"\nSo far in Fresno, there has been 33 days of temperatures at 100 or above.

Heidi’s weather calendar says “March 22…cherry trees bloom.” Still waiting.\nOne thing that makes this March so striking is how different it was from last March. March of 2012 was the second warmest in 100 years of records with an average temperature of 57 degrees. This March, by contrast, was a full 16 degrees colder and ranked as the sixth coldest.\nWe finally got some snow, too. 14.5 inches fell during the month making it the fifth snowiest on record. March 1960 was the all time champ with 30 inches of snow. My mother still talks about that winter. “It was my first winter in the south and it snowed every Wednesday. I thought I was back in Michigan.” It is probably no coincidence that I was conceived that month.\nI suspect that a month from now, it will all be a distant memory. The average high by the end of April is 74, and we are headed into what most folks around here consider our best weather months.\nRainfall was ample in March and we are in good shape for water for the summer growing season. Ground water is about average and stream flow is above average. The chance of a 2002-type of drought is virtually zero this year.\nRainfall totals for the Month\nSome of the rain gauges are not heated so they under-measure during snowstorms.

It is a natural astronomical phenomenon known as polar lights or “aurora Polaris.” It is curtains of colored lights that are visible occasionally during the night sky. To witness this beauty, December through March are the best months. However, you can witness this phenomenon in a few places as early as August. The best place to see this beautiful show is near the Arctic Circle. It includes Canada, Norway, Sweden, Iceland, Alaska, Greenland, and Finland.\nIt is quite famous among people. Therefore, before you see the northern lights, you should know a few things about it.\nBring the correct clothes.\nIrrespective of where you watch the northern lights, it will likely be in winter. You will be in the dark on a harsh cold night to watch this beautiful phenomenon. So be prepared. Otherwise, you will be running inside to get a jacket. It will result in missing the appearance of the aurora.\nTo wait out the night during a cold winter night, you need:\n- Warm footwear, like sore boots.\n- Quality thermals\n- Gloves, scarves, and jackets\nChoose the best time to see the Northern Lights in Norway.\nPick the right time if you are planning a trip to Norway to see the northern lights. Summers are a big no. But even in winter, choosing the correct month is essential. From November to January, the winters are brutal. It may not be possible for you to witness the northern lights in such harsh climates. Instead, plan a trip for late September to October. Or, from late January to March, you can visit Norway to witness the aurora borealis. Also, it is a misconception that you will see this phenomenon when the sky becomes dark around 3 p.m. in December. It’s wrong. You will most likely witness them after 6 p.m. The weather changes here quickly. So, try to pick these months to visit Norway. But also do a quick weather forecast check to be sure.\nDon’t just focus on the Northern lights.\nIf you only go to Norway, Iceland, Finland, or any other location for the northern lights, it’s a waste. Sometimes, no matter how much you try, you cannot witness this magical marvel. Thus, it is better to plan your trip and be excited about other things the city has to offer. If you witness this, it will be an added adventure. But if your trip revolves around this, it may not be as fruitful.\nThe Aurora Oval is unpredictable.\nThe northern lights are extremely unpredictable. To see them, the night sky should be clear and dark. It means that in countries like Norway, you might think you will see them as early as 3 p.m. However, that’s not true. The solar wind or sun should have solar flares for the northern lights to appear. The logic behind the aurora borealis is that when the sun’s particles enter the earth’s atmosphere, they collide with gas atoms. When this happens, you will see the northern lights. And even though scientists have developed methods to forecast them, they can be wrong. When the sky was clear with a forecast, there were often no northern lights. They are unpredictable, and you need to be vigilant about witnessing them.\nThey occur all year around.\nA common misconception is that the northern lights occur only in the winter. The truth is, they are active all year round. But they are visible only when the sky is dark. From April through August, most places with this marvel have daylight 24 hours a day. Therefore, it is challenging to see them. But when, in late August, daylight decreases, you can witness them in August too. However, the best months for tourists are late September, October, and January to March.\nBook a guided tour.\nWhen chasing the northern lights, booking a guided tour is better. It increases your chances of witnessing this magical phenomenon. The guides know how to chase and track the weather better. They also talk to other guides and will take you to better locations for the best views.\nAre you planning to go witness the northern lights? Then ensure you know all about the place. You pack efficiently, such as thermals, if you are going in the winter. Also, don’t forget to take a camera to capture the beautiful moment.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Around 1.5 million people have been warned to evacuate the storm’s path as it gears up to be the most powerful hurricane ever to hit the U.S. coast so far north. Experts are calling it “historic” and a “worst-case scenario” storm.\nFlorence is currently a Category 4 hurricane, but may have strengthened to near Category 5, as experts worry it could bring rainfall that causes the kind of flooding we saw in Texas last year, which killed 68 people and cause $125 billion in damage.\n“This will be a worst-case scenario storm,” a representative for the Program for the Study of Developed Shorelines said, adding that Florence is predicted to cause a storm surge of more than 18 feet, which is the current record in the Carolinas. The storm is on a path that will cause it to hit the coast head-on between North and South Carolina, then continue inland rather than churn up the coastline. This path could cause winds exceeding 140 miles per hour and as much as 30 inches of rain in some inland areas.\nThe head-on path of the storm will also contribute to its high storm surge, experts say. All told, there are a lot of signs that this will be the worst storm the Carolinas have seen in decades, and the number of people being told to evacuate is historic.\nIn most coastal counties, the evacuation orders are still voluntary, but in some areas, mandatory evacuation orders have been given.\n“We encourage people to abide by evacuation orders issued by counties and not try to ride out this storm,” North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper said. “This is a major storm.”\nThe small town of Carolina Beach is under a state of emergency and mandatory evacuations. Town Manager Michael Cramer urged residents to leave, because “It will not be days we will be out of power, it may be a week or more,” he said.\nThe Ocracoke ferry has been offering free rides for Carolina islands residents who want to leave. And the University of North Carolina has ordered evacuation of its Wilmington campus, offering students and staff shelter at its Asheville campus if they have nowhere else to go.\nHurricane Florence is expected to make landfall Thursday. Before then, we can only hope people get out of the way of this record-breaking storm.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In October, environmental group WildEarth Guardians sued the EPA in federal district court in Denver after the agency missed implementation deadlines for new rules on nitrogen dioxide emissions in Oklahoma and 10 other states.\nPruitt said he was concerned an out-of-state environmental group was using the courts to force the EPA to reject a state implementation plan for the new standards.\n“Such ‘regulation through litigation’ undermines the rule of law by subverting due process for states and others affected by these settlement agreements,” Pruitt said in a news release.\nThe EPA issued new rules on nitrogen dioxide emissions in 2010 and gave states three years to develop implementation plans. In January 2011, former Gov. Brad Henry sent a letter to the EPA saying monitoring data showed Oklahoma was in compliance. A year later, EPA said all states either met the standards or were expected to meet the standards, despite a lack of monitoring data.\nIn an affidavit filed with Pruitt’s motion, the air quality division director at the state Department of Environmental Quality said the state was waiting for the EPA to issue guidance before coming up with a state implementation plan. The EPA guidance was delayed until September.

I hoping to hit the plains states this next storm season!\nI have created a new website aimed at showing people the best locations to take lightning and storm pictures. It’s called Lightning Shot Spots and I just launched it today! So far it’s a bare bones site while I work to collect location data (provided by users like you!), but I have plans to develop it into a world class storm photography resources. So, head over, take a look, and please contribute a location if you have one. Thanks!\nAs the temperatures in Southern Arizona heat up, and the moisture in the air decreases, we start getting a lot of Red Flag Warnings for the various parts of the state. I’ve known intuitively what these warnings are about, especially since I was a wildland firefighter for a season, but wanted to find out some more details.\nRed Flag Warnings are issues by the National Weather Service to inform firefighting authorities and land management offices that the conditions are right for wildland fire ignition and propagation. For these offices, the issuance of a Red Flag Warning helps them prepare for the potential fires brought on by drought, low humidity and high winds with potential lightning. For the general public, a Red Flag Warning means there is a high fire danger with increased probability of a quickly spreading vegetation fire in the area in the next 24 hours.\nThe weather criteria for fire weather watches and red flag warnings varies with each Weather Service Office’s warning area based on the local vegetation type, topography, and distance from major water sources but usually includes the daily vegetation moisture content calculations, expected afternoon high temperature, afternoon minimum relative humidity and daytime wind speed.\nRelated to, but of less severity than, a Red Flag Warning is a Fire Weather Watch. which alerts the public and fire fighting agencies that conditions may exist for a Red Flag Warning after the initial forecast period (12 hours). It is generally issued 12 to 48 hours in advance of the conditions, but can also be issued up to 72 hours in advance. That watch then remains in effect until it expires, is canceled, or upgraded to a Red Flag Warning.\nHere’s an example of a Red Flag Warning for Flagstaff, AZ.\nWWUS85 KFGZ 120342 RFWFGZ RED FLAG WARNING NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE FLAGSTAFF AZ 842 PM MST WED JUN 11 2008 AZZ111>117-140-120445- /O.EXP.KFGZ.FW.W.0023.000000T0000Z-080612T0400Z/ CHUSKA MOUNTAINS AND DEFIANCE PLATEAU (FIRE WEATHER ZONE 111)- LITTLE COLORADO RIVER VALLEY IN COCONINO COUNTY (FIRE WEATHER ZONE 112)- LITTLE COLORADO RIVER VALLEY IN NAVAJO COUNTY (FIRE WEATHER ZONE 113)- LITTLE COLORADO RIVER VALLEY IN APACHE COUNTY (FIRE WEATHER ZONE 114)-WESTERN MOGOLLON RIM (FIRE WEATHER ZONE 115)- EASTERN MOGOLLON RIM (FIRE WEATHER ZONE 116)- WHITE MOUNTAINS (FIRE WEATHER ZONE 117)- NORTHEAST PLATEAUS AND MESAS SOUTH OF HWY 264 (FIRE WEATHER ZONE 140)- 842 PM MST WED JUN 11 2008 ...RED FLAG WARNING WILL EXPIRE AT 9 PM MST THIS EVENING...

For an average of 160 nights a year, 16-40 cloud-to-cloud strikes light the air above the waters of the lake. As many as 20,000 bolts have been recorded in a single night. But that all stopped in January 2010…there have been no strikes since then.\nIn an online article at The Guardian, locals are concerned about the lack of lightning :\nFishermen in the village of Congo Mirador, a collection of wooden huts on stilts at the phenomenon’s epicentre, are puzzled and anxious by its absence. “It has always been with us,” said Edin Hernandez, 62. “It guides us at night, like a lighthouse. We miss it.”\nThere has been lightning in the skies around here for most of recorded history :\nElectrical storms, product of a unique meteorological phenomenon, have lit up nights in this corner of Venezuela for thousands of years. Francis Drake abandoned a sneak attack on the city of Maracaibo in 1595 when lightning betrayed his ships to the Spanish garrison.\n“This is unprecedented. In recorded history we have not had such a long stretch without lightning,” said Erik Quiroga, an environmentalist and leading authority on the Relampago de Catatumbo, or Catatumbo Lightning.\nIt appears to scientists that El Niño is to blame for the disruption of this phenomenon. The theory is that El Niño has caused a drought in the area, drying up the lakes and rivers that normally exist, and which contribute to the creation of the lightning. Another theory links it to decomposing organic matter which release methane. Yet another theory links it to Andean winds blowing across marshes, generating low pressure and building up an electrical charge in the atmosphere.\nThe last time the lightning disappeared? In 1906 when a catastrophic 8.8 magnitude earthquake off the coast of Ecuador and Colombia unleashed a tsunami. The lightning returned three weeks later. But the long delay in the lightning’s return this time have locals worried.\nLosing the lightning is a symbolic blow. In addition to warding off Drake’s naval assault – an event celebrated in Lope de Vega’s 1598 epic poem – it is credited with helping independence fighters defeat a Spanish fleet in 1823. The state of Zulia, which encompasses Lake Maracaibo, has a lightning bolt across its centre and refers to the phenomenon in its anthem.\nQuiroga worries that when rains return the lightning may not recover its former glory. It was dwindling in frequency and force even before the drought, probably because deforestation and agriculture had clogged the Catatumbo river and several lagoons with silt.\n“This is a unique gift and we are at risk of losing it,” said Quiroga, who has led scientific teams to its epicentre. He has lobbied Venezuelan authorities to protect the area and the United Nations to recognise it as a world heritage site. A Unesco spokeswoman said there were no plans to do so because electrical storms did not have a “site”.\nFor more information about the Catatumbo Lightning, check out this brief Wikipedia article.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In the coming months, the spacecraft will be positioned in its Halo orbit, L1, near the Sun, where its seven payloads will embark on a mission to answer intriguing questions about the Sun.\nOne of the primary mysteries the mission aims to unravel is the extreme temperature of the Sun’s corona. The corona, the Sun’s outermost atmosphere layer, is typically concealed by the Sun’s brilliant surface light.\nAshoka University’s Vice-Chancellor and scientist, Somak Raychaudhury, explains, “One of our primary goals is to understand why the Sun’s corona is astonishingly hot, reaching temperatures of up to 2 million degrees, in stark contrast to the relatively cooler surface of the Sun at around 5,000 degrees.”\nKey Objectives of the Aditya L1 Mission\nThe primary objective of the Aditya L1 mission is to enable uninterrupted, 24/7 observation of the Sun. This unhindered observation will greatly enhance the monitoring of solar activity. To achieve this goal, Aditya L1 is equipped with two major instruments and five smaller ones.\n- SUIT (Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope): This instrument captures continuous ultraviolet images of the Sun, which is crucial for solar observations. It allows scientists to study the significant ultraviolet and X-ray radiation emitted from the Sun’s corona.\n- VELC (Visible Emission Line Coronagraph): VELC is a spectrograph that focuses on the Sun’s corona, the outermost layer of its atmosphere. It extends far beyond the Sun’s visible disk and will work in conjunction with SUIT to monitor the corona, aiding ISRO scientists in correlating corona changes with solar surface events.\nUnlocking the Sun’s Enigma\nSomak Raychaudhury elaborates on the enigmatic phenomenon of the Sun’s corona’s high temperature, emphasizing that it reaches up to 2 million degrees—a stark contrast to the Sun’s cooler surface at around 5,000 degrees. This temperature difference remains a “baffling mystery in solar science.” The study of high-energy phenomena of the Sun’s corona aims to shed light on this mystery and establish causal connections between the Sun and its corona.\nAditya L1’s observations will also contribute to understanding the relationship between the Sun’s surface and the emission of high-energy particles during solar storms. These storms are closely tied to the Sun’s magnetic activity and have the potential to disrupt human technologies, including satellites and communication systems.\nIndia’s Aditya L1 mission promises to illuminate the Sun’s secrets, advancing our understanding of this crucial celestial body and its impact on our solar system.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The increased coverage will help researchers improve current models for practical use in predicting hurricane intensity, while providing valuable data that can be used to improve tsunami warning models.\n\"When it comes to predicting hurricane intensity, the curve in the last 40 years has been somewhat flat, with little advance in how to reduce error in predicted intensity,\" said Gustavo Goni, of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in\nSatellites that measure sea surface height have been running operationally nonstop since November 1992. But more than one is needed to fly at the same time in order to identify all the features that could be responsible for intensification of tropical cyclones all over Earth. The OSTM/Jason 2 mission will help make the additional coverage possible.\n…While sea surface height may not necessarily be the most significant parameter for hurricane intensity forecasts, researchers now know that if sea surface height is accounted for in current forecast models, errors in forecasts for the most intense storms are reduced. For weak storms, the reduction in error is not very significant. However, for storms in the strongest category 5 range, the heat content in the upper ocean derived from sea surface height becomes increasingly important. \"This is a good thing, because these are the storms that produce the most damage,\" Goni said.This is what it looked like on the ground: Inside the Astrotech processing facility at Vandenberg Air Force Base, the OSTM/Jason-2 spacecraft is viewed from another angle after being lifted to a vertical position on the tilt dolly. The OSTM, or Ocean Topography Mission, on the Jason-2 satellite is a follow-on to Jason-1. It will take oceanographic studies of sea surface height into an operational mode for continued climate forecasting research and science and industrial applications.

The typhoon formed on June 28, 2002, near the FSM, and for several days it meandered while producing heavy rainfall across the region. On Chuuk, the highest 24-hour precipitation total was 506 mm (19.9 in), which was greater than the average monthly total. The rain produced floods up to 1.5 m (4.9 ft) deep, causing landslides across the island that killed 47 people. There was also one death on nearby Pohnpei, and damage in the FSM totaled over $100 million.[nb 1]\nAfter affecting the FSM, Chataan began a northwest track as an intensifying typhoon. Its eye passed just north of Guam on July 4, though the eyewall moved across the island and dropped heavy rainfall. Totals were highest in southern Guam, peaking at 536 mm (21.1 in). Flooding and landslides from the storm severely damaged or destroyed 1,994 houses. Damage on the island totaled $60.5 million, and there were 23 injuries. The typhoon also affected Rota in the Northern Marianas Islands with gusty winds and light rainfall. Typhoon Chataan attained its peak intensity of 175 km/h (110 mph) on July 8. It weakened while turning to the north, and after diminishing to a tropical storm Chataan struck eastern Japan on July 10. High rainfall, peaking at 509 mm (20.0 in), flooded 10,270 houses. Damage in Japan totaled about $500 million.\nThe name Chataan means \"rainy day\" in the Chamorro language, which is spoken on Guam. The Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (PAGASA) named the storm Gloria while the typhoon was in the vicinity of the country.\nOn June 27, 2002, the monsoon trough spawned a tropical disturbance southwest of Pohnpei. The system rapidly organized that day, and at 2000 UTC the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC)[nb 2] issued a tropical cyclone formation alert. Early on June 28, the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA)[nb 3] classified the system as a tropical depression near the Mortlock Islands in the Federated States of Micronesia; around the same time, the JTWC also initiated storm advisories. Early on June 29, the JTWC upgraded the system to Tropical Storm 08W, and shortly thereafter the JMA named the system Tropical Storm Chataan. After moving northwestward, the storm turned to the east, resuming a northwest track on June 30 due to a subtropical ridge to the north. The track was erratic because the storm had not yet separated from the monsoon trough. By June 30, Chataan had steadily strengthened to severe tropical storm status, with 10-minute maximum sustained winds of 95 km/h (60 mph).\nOnly July 1, the system's circulation became broad, with most of the convection located west of the center. The next day, Chataan briefly weakened to an intensity of 85 km/h (50 mph), although it began strengthening steadily on July 3, when its center passed very near Weno in Chuck State in the FSM. At 1800 UTC that night, the JTWC upgraded Chataan to a typhoon, and about 24 hours later the JMA followed suit while the storm was approaching Guam from the southeast. At about 2130 UTC on July 4, the eye of Chataan moved across northern Guam in about two hours, although the center of the eye passed north of the island.\nAfter affecting Guam, Chataan continued toward the northwest and gradually intensified. At 0000 UTC on July 8, the typhoon reached its peak intensity of 175 km/h (110 mph 10-minute sustained) while located near the Japanese island of Okinotorishima. The JTWC assessed that Chataan had reached its peak intensity of 240 km/h (150 mph 1-minute sustained) about six hours earlier; on that basis, the agency classified the system as a super typhoon. On July 8, Chataan turned toward the north around the subtropical ridge while maintaining its peak winds for about 18 hours. On July 9 the typhoon turned to the northeast, and late that day it weakened to a severe tropical storm. At around 1530 UTC on July 10, Chataan made landfall on the Bōsō Peninsula in Honshu with winds of about 100 km/h (65 mph 10-minute sustained). The storm briefly moved offshore before making a second landfall on eastern Hokkaido at 1200 UTC on July 11; this marked the first occasion of a July landfall on the island in 28 years. A few hours later, Chataan became an extratropical cyclone in the Sea of Okhotsk, where the remnants stalled before dissipating on July 13 near Sakhalin.\nWhile Chataan was in its formative stages and still tied to the monsoon trough, it produced a large area of heavy rainfall and strong winds that affected Pohnpei and Chuuk in the FSM. The storm passed very near Chuuk with wind gusts of 82 km/h (51 mph). In the day before Chataan affected the island, it dropped torrential rainfall due to its elongated structure and slow movement. Persistent winds from the larger monsoon trough generated high surf and tides of 0.3 m (1 ft) above normal across the region. The most significant effects were from the rainfall, peaking at 954 mm (37.5 in) at the Chuuk Weather Service Office over 13 days. The highest 24-hour total was 506 mm (19.9 in) on Weno Island, of which 361 mm (14.2 in) fell in 12 hours; this was greater than the average monthly rainfall total for the station.\nHigh winds downed power lines on Chuuk, while surf destroyed seawalls and buildings along the coast. The rains causes severe flooding across the island that reached 1.5 m (4.9 ft) in some locations, triggering at least 30 mudslides that killed 47 people. This represented the deadliest natural disaster in the island's recorded history. The landslides reached a depth of 4.6 m (15 ft), which destroyed several homes made of tin and concrete. Many people were buried by the landslides or washed into the ocean. Saltwater flooding contaminated the groundwater and destroyed much of the island's crops. Chataan damaged roads and bridges, and high winds downed power lines, which cut communications between islands. Across Chuuk, the storm destroyed about 1,000 homes and left about 1,000 people homeless. About 100 people were injured.\nIn nearby Pohnpei state, Chataan produced 72 km/h (45 mph) winds in Nukuoro. The winds destroyed a house and a weather station. Rainfall on the atoll reached 457 mm (18.0 in). High winds, surf, and rain also affected Sapwuafik. Rough seas killed a person on Pohnpei. Crop damage in the country totaled $3 million, and overall property damage was estimated at $100 million, mostly on Chuuk.\nBefore Chataan affected Guam, officials canceled U.S. Independence Day festivities, and residents purchased storm supplies. Although the center of the eye did not strike Guam, the eyewall affected the entire island with strong winds and heavy rainfall. The highest sustained winds were estimated at 120 km/h (75 mph), with gusts to 167 km/h (104 mph) at Andersen Air Force Base. Gusts were slightly higher at Apra Harbor, peaking at 170 km/h (106 mph), and gusts may have reached as high as 200 km/h (125 mph). Similar to its effects on Chuuk, Chataan dropped heavy rainfall on Guam, peaking at 536 mm (21.1 in) on Mount Almagosa; the same station reported 311 mm (12.2 in) in about three hours. The Weather Forecast Office on the island reported 265 mm (10.4 in) in a 24 hour period. The rains were less than 250 mm (10 in) in northern Guam, and were highest in the mountainous southern region where the eye crossed. While moving across the island, Chataan produced a significant storm surge that peaked at about 3.6 m (12 ft) in Umatac.\nHigh winds caused damage across Guam, mostly to roofs and to poorly built or wooden structures. A total of 1,996 houses were severely damaged or destroyed. Better constructed homes fared well during the storm, and there was little window damage. The winds also downed power lines, leaving an island-wide power outage. John F. Kennedy High School sustained damage to its football field and library. The most significant effects were from the heavy rainfall, resulting in landslides in some areas and causing rivers to flow at above-normal rates; 14 stations reported either record flow rates or peak crests, including an island-wide peak crest of 8.55 m (28.06 ft) at the mouth of the Tolaeyuus River. Two water gauges were destroyed during the storm. Swollen rivers damaged roads, washed away trees, and caused erosion. The storm flooding contaminated Fena Lake, which provides water to the military base, for a few days. In addition, 34 of the island's 110 water wells failed due to the storm. Flooding also destroyed a building and damaged the runway at Antonio B. Won Pat International Airport, and damaged a bridge near Inarajan. A few palm trees fell due to the soil being loosened, either from heavy rains or high waves. Some of the downed trees struck cars, but the winds were not strong enough to overturn any vehicles. In the higher elevations of Guam, some areas experienced heavy crop damage due to strong winds; however, crop damage in general was less than expected, estimated at around $500,000. In Apra Harbor, high seas washed ashore or sank five boats, and a Navy barge spilled 397,000 litres (105,000 gallons) of oil. Overall, Chataan caused about $60 million in property damage on Guam, and there were 23 injuries, none of them serious.\nNorth of Guam, Chataan affected Rota with 74 km/h (46 mph) sustained winds and gusts to 120 km/h (75 mph) at the island's airport. Rainfall was much less than elsewhere in the typhoon's path, and a 24 hour total of 38.6 mm (1.52 in) was reported at Rota's airport. The storm inflicted heavy damage to crops and fisheries, and 60% of farmers reported a total loss. Chataan also damaged roads on the island, many due to fallen trees. Nine huts were destroyed, and damage was estimated at $2.7 million.\nEnergy from the typhoon enhanced monsoonal moisture over the Philippines, in conjunction with Tropical Storm Nakri. The two storms contributed to heavy rainfall that triggered floods and landslides, which closed roads and highways. High waves killed three people after a boat overturned. The storm destroyed 566 houses and damaged another 2,363. A total of 31,813 people evacuated to 184 government-opened shelters. Officials canceled classes during the system; several schools were used as temporary shelters. Damage totaled over $1.5 million (₱64 million pesos), and the floods killed 58 people.\nThe last location Chataan affected was Japan. The typhoon forced the cancellation of 316 flights and 150 train trips. The expressway between Shizuoka and Tokyo was closed. At least 396 schools were closed in the country, and a baseball game between the Yokohama DeNA BayStars and the Yakult Swallows was canceled due to the inclement weather. Toyota temporarily closed most of its factories in the country. Heavy rainfall, peaking at 509 mm (20.0 in) in Gifu Prefecture, fell across Japan. The rains flooded 10,270 houses in the country, resulting in evacuation orders for about 145,000 people. The floods damaged roads in 338 locations, and at least 10 bridges were destroyed. About 15,000 evacuees were in Ogaki after a river exceeded its banks. High rainfall caused hundreds of landslides, two of which resulted in a death. Floods killed at least three people. Winds from the typhoon peaked at 97 km/h (60 mph) at Hachijō-jima. High winds in Sakai, Osaka damaged 20 houses. In Tokyo, the storm produced light winds and rains, despite passing within 102 km (63 mi). Chataan destroyed 21 homes and damaged 239 others to some degree. During its passage, the typhoon destroyed 258.6 km2 (99.8 sq mi) of crops. The typhoon killed six people, left one person missing, and injured 30 others. Overall damage in Japan totaled about $500 million (¥59 billion 2002 JPY).[nb 4] During the storm, Yahoo! Japan received a record 359 million views, mostly due to people checking the website's weather section.\nAfter Chataan affected Chuuk state, the island's residents were in need of food, clothes and medicine. Only a few crops were not destroyed by the storm; much of the breadfruit was stripped from the trees, and fruit not destroyed by the storm were damaged by parasites. In the days after the storm, the local Red Cross deployed about 100 volunteers to search for victims buried by landslides. However, rescue operations were hampered by persistent flooding after the storm. Initially the death toll was unknown, and it was feared that hundreds of people had been killed. Six people who were seriously injured on Chuuk were flown to The Queen's Medical Center in Hawaii for treatment; they were initially scheduled to fly to Guam Memorial Hospital, but the facility was full. About 2,000 residents affected by the storm evacuated to government-run shelters. The Red Cross shipped various relief supplies, including raincoats and water, to the affected areas. By July 4, power systems were restored and the airport reopened. Although there was enough food in the immediate aftermath, the destruction of crops and cattle posed a long-term food shortage.\nOn July 3 while Chataan was passing the region, the governor of Chuuk declared a state of emergency, requesting international assistance. On July 9, the government of Japan sent $87,000 (¥10 million) worth of supplies to Micronesia, including 1,000 blankets and 10 electric generators. Two days later, United States President George W. Bush declared the island as a disaster area. This was six days after FSM President Leo Falcam sent the disaster declaration to the US president, although Falcam had improperly filed the paperwork. Because the FSM is in a Compact of Free Association and not a U.S. state, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) could not provide immediate assistance. During the delay, a group of doctors from Guam flew to Chuuk to provide medical assistance. On July 11, the government of Israel sent $5,000 worth of medicine to the FSM. The next day, the Caritas charity in Australia sent $20,000 worth of water and food. Residents from elsewhere in the FSM sent clothes and food. The Australian government sent $10,000 to replenish emergency supplies, and the International Red Cross released about $20,000 for immediate relief. The government of China sent $30,000 worth of aid. On July 30, FEMA announced that residents and business owners in Chuuk could apply for individual assistance, including money for housing, repairing damage, and low-interest loans. The declaration would not apply to outer islands in Chuuk, which did not sustain significant damage; this is because FEMA only had funds to restore areas to how they were before the storm. Ultimately, FEMA provided 93,000 l (25,000 US gal) of water, 1,300 blankets, 45,360 km (100,000 lbs) of rice, 11,328 meals ready to eat, and various other supplies. In total, the agency allocated $10.6 million, mostly in the form of individual assistance that provided money for purchasing lost supplies. FEMA ultimately sent just under $5 million to Chuuk after Chataan, as well as subsequent typhoons Pongsona and Lupit; however, about $445,000 of the funding was believed to have been misspent due to discrepancies discovered in an audit in 2006.\nIn the days after the storm, thousands of people on Guam evacuated to the 15 government shelters set up in schools across the island; the total reached 3,947 people on July 10. The governor of Guam declared a state of emergency after the storm, and on July 6 President Bush declared the island a major disaster area; this allocated federal funding to assist in removing debris and other emergency services. A week later, the declaration was extended to include individual assistance for anyone who experienced damage from the storm. The Fena Lake reservoir experienced excess silt deposit after excessive rainfall from Chataan, which prevented water distribution from the facility; on July 19 – fifteen days after the typhoon's landfall – water production resumed. Before the facility reopened, the Guam Waterworks Authority distributed water to the island at differing times of the day to ration the limited supply. However, by a month after the storm, residents were still required to boil water as a precaution. About five days after Chataan struck Guam, Typhoon Halong affected the island and caused further power outages. Some areas on the island remained without power for over a week, due to electric workers restoring the main transmission lines before fixing individual lines. By July 19, 23% of those who lost power still were without electricity, mostly in outlying areas. By that date, trash collection was restored, and government-opened shelters were closed. Later in July, flooding washed debris from Chataan and clogged two rivers. The oil spill in Apra Harbor was cleaned at three of seven affected locations by August 19. In the months after the storm, tourism decreased further after a decline that began after the September 11 attacks. Ultimately, FEMA provided $73 million in assistance to the territory, including $10 million in housing checks to 5,947 people and $6.5 million worth of food stamps for 79,814 people. The agency provided $10 million for debris removal and rebuilding public buildings. In December 2002, Typhoon Pongsona struck Guam and caused additional flooding and damage.\nOn August 7, President Bush also declared Rota as a disaster area, which provided funding for debris removal.\nBecause of Chataan's death toll and damage, the name was retired and replaced with Matmo in 2004. Countries in the World Meteorological Organization can request tropical cyclone names to be retired if a storm caused unusually heavy damage. The name PAGASA gave to Chataan while active – Gloria – was replaced with Glenda in 2005; the agency sought to be apolitical after Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo won a disputed presidential election in 2004.\n|Wikimedia Commons has media related to Typhoon Chataan.|","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It is generally accepted that an increase in greenhouse gas (GHG) concentrations in the atmosphere results in the warming of the Earth’s surface. Recent changes in the European fauna of Lepidoptera have been considered as a northward shift of entire distribution areas, caused by global warming.

An invasion of a new species is often followed by a rapid growth of its population and followed by its penetration into the neighbouring areas.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Last week was the tenth anniversary of Hurricane Floyd. North Carolina has seen two major hurricanes in September starting with the letter F: Fran and Floyd. I thought I would look back at all of the hurricanes that have made landfall in our state in the month of September. I didn’t count all of the other tropical systems that have rolled through the state after making landfall somewhere else.\nWe start back in 1933 with the Outer Banks Hurricane. Next came the 1944 Great Atlantic Hurricane. Both of these storms were Category 3 storms. After that the list reads like this…Ione in 1955, Helene in 1958, Donna in 1960, Ginger in 1971, Diana in 1984, Gloria in 1985 and Emily in 1993.\nIn 1996, one of the most memorable hurricanes to hit North Carolina was Fran…also a Category 3. Hurricane Floyd hit in 1999. Eleven days before Floyd was Dennis, a strong Tropical Storm. The one – two punch caused record flooding in several parts of the state. Since then, we’ve seen Isabel in 2003, Ivan in 2004 and Ophelia in 2005.\nYou can see why we keep a watchful eye on the tropics in September. North Carolina is a big target for hurricanes because of how far east our state extends into the Atlantic. Of course there are many dynamics that play a role in where a hurricane makes landfall, but sitting where we do doesn’t help our cause.\nCopyright 2023 by Capitol Broadcasting Company.

I took out the camera to record this intense spectacle in all its impressive beauty.\nThen I began thinking about what they really are, the northern lights, or aurora borealis.\nFrench philosopher Pierre Gassendi named the phenomenon in 1621 after Aurora, the Roman goddess of dawn, and Boreas, the purple-winged Greek god of the north wind.\nThis natural light display in the sky, in the high-latitude regions, is caused by the collision of electrically-charged particles with gaseous particles in the high-altitude atmosphere 80 km (50 miles) above us. The charged particles originate in the magnetosphere and solar winds and are directed by the earth’s magnetic field into the atmosphere.\nThe first written account of norðurljós, which is what the northern lights are called in Icelandic, can be found in old Norse literature, in the chronicle Konungs Skuggsjá, dating back to 1230. The chronicler had heard about the phenomenon from a compatriot returning from Greenland. He gives three possible explanations for the northern lights: the ocean was surrounded by a vast fire; the sun’s flares could reach the night; or perhaps the glaciers stored energy, which eventually caused them to become fluorescent.\nHow do you capture the northern lights in a picture? First you need a clear, dark sky. Checking out the Icelandic Met Office’s aurora forecast on vedur.is should be your first step in planning the perfect shot. Next, you need a sturdy tripod that won’t shake in the Icelandic wind and during long exposures. Then, put a wide-angle lens on your camera and focus it at infinity.\nThe northern lights that so impressed me that night vanished as suddenly as they had appeared.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Torrential rains associated with slow-moving or stationary tropical weather systems can produce more than 40 inches of rain over a two-day time period.\n- Anyone with a mortgage on property in a flood plain is required to buy flood insurance.

An elderly man died in Delaware County, and an elderly woman, described as in her early 80s, was also killed in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, NBC Philadelphia reported.\nAs of Thursday morning, the system is making its way out of the Northeast, with 5 million people under wind alerts across New England and 8 million under winter alerts.\nThe system will produce heavy, wet snow over north-central New England and northeast New York and pass through Maine on Thursday, the National Weather Service Prediction Center forecast. An additional 12 inches of snowfall is possible through Friday.\nThe system will create “significant impacts from heavy snow and wind,” and perilous travel due to whiteout conditions, snow-covered roads, tree damage and power outages, the NWS said.\nDisrupted travel, crashes and power outages\nAir travel has already been affected, with over 1,200 delays and over 300 cancellations inside, into or out of the U.S. reported, according to Flight Aware data — all amid a week of busy spring break bookings.\nThe storm system has also wreaked havoc on roads.\nIn New Hampshire, state troopers responded to three tractor-trailer rollover crashes in less than seven hours by late Wednesday. State police urged locals “to avoid unnecessary travel.” Massachusetts State Police also responded to multiple crashes Wednesday evening, describing road conditions as “poor.”\nPowerful winds have whipped through the region since Wednesday, downing power lines and trees.\nNationally, over 500,000 customers are without power — including over 235,000 in Maine, 53,000 in West Virginia and over 51,000 in New York as of 8:30 a.m., according to PowerOutage.us.\nIn New Hampshire as of early Thursday, more than 100,000 customers were without power, the state’s division of homeland security and emergency management said. The agency’s State Emergency Operations Center has been activated in response to the storm.\nNew York State Electric and Gas, which serves the upstate region, said Wednesday’s severe weather led to 180 downed wires and more than 30 broken poles.\n“NYSEG pre-staged more than 2,100 additional line workers and tree personnel across its service areas in preparation for the storm and are currently shifting resources to support its hardest hit areas,” the company said.\nUtility company National Grid said it was responding to stormy conditions in upstate New York by increasing staffing, extending overnight shifts, bringing in additional resources from other states and Canada, and pre-staging crews in areas anticipated to be “most severely impacted.”\nIn Brookfield, Connecticut, a mother and her three kids narrowly escaped injury Wednesday when stormy winds caused a tree to fall on their car, completely crushing it.\nIn Maine, where heavy snow is forecast, Gov. Janet Mills directed all state offices to be closed Thursday and urged locals to “take proper precautions and to prepare for possible power outages.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The overall air quality index settled at a shocking 484.\nFollowing a spike in air pollution, the Environment Pollution (Prevention and Control) Authority (EPCA) on Friday declared a public health emergency in Delhi NCR, as the pollution levels in the region entered the severe plus category.\nIn a letter to the states of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Delhi, the EPCA told to the state government to follow the graded response action plan (GRAP) and ensure ceasing of construction activities in Delhi, Faridabad, Noida, Gurugram and adjoining areas, shutting down of hot mix plants and coal-based industries, all industries those other than PNG are banned. A complete ban on bursting of firecrackers has also been announced till the end of the winter season.\nEPCA chairman Bhurelal said that locally the level of air pollution spiked further on the Diwali night after firecrackers were burst by people despite a ban already in place. \"The firecrackers, traffic on Diwali and stubble burning led to more pollution while the weather conditions such as cyclonic winds in the Arabian Sea and low wind speeds are not helping Delhi NCR's cause,\" he said.\n\"Health of the citizens of Delhi is being compromised. Children who are suffering from bronchitis and asthma are being affected. We want to take further steps and that's why we have announced this health emergency IN Delhi and neighbouring areas affected by pollution,\" Bhurelal said.\nThe EPCA has also asked states to take strict action against stubble burning and issue advisories to schoolchildren so that their exposure to hazardous air can be limited. This means outdoor activities need to stop and senior citizens those with asthma need to stay indoors.\nA new analysis of the Air Quality Life Index (AQLI), produced by the Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago (EPIC), shows the average citizen living in the Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP) region of India can expect to lose about 7 years of life expectancy because of air quality fails to meet the World Health Organization's (WHO) guideline for fine particulate pollution. This is due to a 72 percent increase in pollution from 1998 to 2016 in the region that is home to about 40 percent of India's population.\n\"Major sources of pollution in India is combustion of fossil fuels along with stubble burning that plays a role at this time of the year, leading to extraordinary high levels of particulate air pollution,\" said Michael Greenstone, the Milton Friedman Distinguished Service Professor in Economics and director of Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago.\nDr Randeep Guleria, director, AIIMS, said that they expect an increase in respiratory disorders in the coming days. \"There is a 20 per cent increase in people coming to the OPD with respiratory and cardiac problems.\nThe health of their heart deteriorates as they continue to breathe high levels of polluted air,\" Guleria said who also heads the department of pulmonology.\nSchool students complained of headaches and eye irritation. \"My eyes burn and I also have a cough. I can sense the smoke in the air,\" said a school student who was out with his friends at India Gate.\n\"I have had a bad headache. I also am having trouble breathing,\" said another student who had a mask on.\nWindy weather respite?\nThe overall air quality settled at 484 on Friday evening and has been worsening with every passing day post-Diwali.\nHowever, weather expert Kuldeep Srivastava has said that things will get better for Delhi residents after November 3 because of a western disturbance.\n\"A western disturbance which will reach Delhi on November 3 will increase the wind speed from the current 8 km per hour to 20 km per hour. This will help disperse the air pollutants which have accumulated over Delhi-NCR,\" said Srivastava.\nSrivastava also said that another western disturbance will also hit the Capital in November. \"Both western disturbances will help increase the wind speed and possibly improve the air quality from the 'severe plus' to the 'poor' category,\" he added.\nNetas play blame game, city chokes\nPolitics surrounding pollution refuses to die down with leaders attacking and blaming each other for the situation in the Capital.\nDelhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal blamed stubble burning for the worsening air quality and asked school kids to write letters to Haryana CM Manohar Lal Khattar and Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Singh asking them to take concrete steps against stubble burning.\nDelhi BJP president Manoj Tiwari lashed out at Arvind Kejriwal in a tweet asking him not to distribute pollution masks for a photo op. Tiwari also asked the Delhi government to shut schools immediately for the welfare of children.\nRajya Sabha MP Vijay Goel observed a day long fast against the Arvind Kejriwal government for not having done enough to combat the menace of air pollution.\nArvind Kejriwal said that the Centre as well as the governments of Punjab and Haryana should give a timeline to stop stubble burning.\nArvind Kejriwal said that instead of making fun of Delhi people, the governments of neighbouring states should take steps to stop burning stubble. \"Stop abusing the people of Delhi. They did everything to reduce pollution in Delhi. But now the smoke of the straw has made Delhi's air dangerous,\" he said.\n\"I am concerned about the health of the people of Delhi. We are doing our best. We are doing all that is available to us. The people of Delhi are also doing a lot. There is much more to be done. Opposition parties are blaming and abusing, it is not right. A leader is on a day's fast. It makes fun of a serious issue. He is unable to understand how big a problem it is. One has to work hard to overcome it. We have to work hard if we want to make big changes,\" Arvind Kejriwal said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Not that we need any snow at all, but this is still looking like slow accumulating 3 - 4\" here in MAPSO, with significantly more dire forecasts further east, especially eastern Long Island, that will be the headlines in all the TV weather reports.\nWe are not entirely out of the woods yet -- this has the potential to be a serious storm, and that storm, should it happen, has the potential to strike here. However, it is more likely that the storm will pass to our east, and that we will be on the fringe.

So I remain cautiously optimistic.\nStill, snow is snow and the NWS has issued a Winter Weather Advisory (see below) for our area.\nForecast: gathering clouds today with highs around 40.\nPrecipitation may start as rain this evening, changing over to snow, light or moderate at times.\nMore snow overnight, ending mid morning tomorrow.\nTotal 2 - 3 inches.\nThere is still the potential for much heavier snow with this system, most likely to our east, so please continue to monitor the forecast.\nFrom the NWS:\n\"Winter Weather Advisory\nURGENT - WINTER WEATHER MESSAGENational Weather Service New York NY330 AM EDT Mon Mar 12 2018\nNJZ004-006-104>108-NYZ071>075-176-178-121730-/O.NEW.KOKX.WW.Y.0012.180313T0000Z-180313T1600Z/Eastern Passaic-Hudson-Eastern Bergen-Western Essex-Eastern Essex-Western Union-Eastern Union-Southern Westchester-New York (Manhattan)-Bronx-Richmond (Staten Island)-Kings (Brooklyn)-Northern Queens-Southern Queens-330 AM EDT Mon Mar 12 2018\n...WINTER WEATHER ADVISORY IN EFFECT FROM 8 PM THIS EVENING TONOON EDT TUESDAY...\n* WHAT...Snow expected.

One to two feet of snow, with the low set up over the Cape Cod Canal and lots of cold air streaming in from the northwest keeping it all snow. Man, after seeing what 20+ inches did to Morristown last week, I feel for these folks. We were without power from Wednesday 3 PM through last night at 7 PM, and the only reason we got back up last night was that News 12 did a feature on our particular downed wire that got the Mayor, Fire Chief, and JCP&L all em-bare-assed. But the damage from the storm was incredible in our area. The last one was as much a wind event as anything, but this time it was pure water weight.\nWe were high fiving on my block about our luck re power until we got hit with a \"controlled\" power outage on Saturday that seemed to get out of control. They shut our power off in connection with repairs elsewhere and couldn't get it back in for more than a day, with lots of conflicting postings about what caused the problem and how long it would take to fix.\nOh man, this is not the thread to go into how the power companies responded--or failed to respond--but I sent a very specific and detailed list of ideas to Governor Murphy this morning on things that JCPL and others can and should do better. Starting with: What happened to all the money they got in tax breaks, rates hikes, and grants after Sandy to improve the resiliency and response in the system? It is such a weird situation where private monopolies are granted by the state, but the state has little to no influence in return.\nMy beef this time, as during Sandy, is the ineptitude and outright falsity of their customer service communications. Twice on Saturday, thy called us to say our power was on (false) and when we said no, they insisted our neighbors had power (false). There was more BS I'll leave out. Their ignorance was particularly inexcusable in a situation like ours where one of their crews actually shut the power on purpose.\nNothing much changing except the NWS is moving the start period of the fun stuff for NYC and Long Island up to around midnight.\nYes, I am sticking with 1 - 3\" of accumulation. A bit more may fall, but it will settle over the 10 hour course of the snowfall, so net will be lower, and lower than that on paved surfaces.\nI am supposed to do a talk in Westchester (Harrison) on Tuesday evening.

(WOOD) — The Eta Aquariid meteor shower will take place this week.\nThe peak of the meteor shower is expected to take place early Tuesday morning, but you’ll have a chance of seeing some meteors early Wednesday morning as well.\nLight from the nearly full moon will make it a bit more difficult to see the meteors and viewing of the meteor shower is better in the southern hemisphere. Still, if you want to head outside after dark over the next few days, you’ll certainly have a chance of seeing some meteors.\nThe Eta Aquariid meteors are debris from Halley’s Comet. The Earth passes through the orbital path of the comet and the debris enters and burns up in our atmosphere.\nIf you don’t have much luck spotting meteors, you will still be treated to a view of the third and final full supermoon of 2020 this week. The moon will officially be full on May 7 at 6:45 a.m., but it will look full for most of the second half of the week.\nThis supermoon will be the third largest of the year, behind the full supermoons that occurred in March and April.\nThe full moon in May is called the Flower Moon, the Corn Planting Moon or the Milk Moon.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The National Weather Bureau predicted it would blow itself out at Cape Hatteras, just as such storms usually did. But there was nothing typical about this storm. Without sophisticated forecasting tools, the East Coast was taken by surprise as the storm suddenly headed north. Within 24 hours of the Weather Bureau’s benign forecast, the so-called “Florida cyclone” ripped into the New England coast with a fury that set off seismographs in Alaska.\nExpecting only heavy rains, people found themselves, virtually without warning, in the midst of the most devastating storm ever recorded in North America. Traveling at 60 m.p.h., with peak gust winds surging up to three times that speed, the storm killed some 600 people, destroyed 8,000 homes and wrecked 6,000 boats. \"The Hurricane Of '38\" follows the lives of fishermen, Shinnecock Indians and vacationers who were caught up in this incredible natural disaster.\nSeveral families documented the destruction wrought by the Hurricane of '38 with their home movie cameras.

The next chance of rain from a cold front associated with a low pressure system is expected to pass through the day on Friday, although forecasters do not yet have a handle on precipitation amounts.\nAnd that’s a problem for allergy sufferers at the Jersey Shore, where pollen counts are currently “high,” according to pollen.com. The site lists maple, juniper, and poplar trees as the top allergens.\nAllergy season began a few weeks sooner than usual, allergy specialist Dr. Leonard Bielory told NewsWorks last month. The reverse was true last season, when the delay of warm weather caused several varieties of trees to release pollen at the same time.\nLast May featured the worst allergy conditions in a decade, Bielory told NewsWorks last year.\nDr. Catherine Monteleone, an allergist at Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, advised reducing your risk of pollen problems by closing your windows and staying inside in the morning when pollen counts are the highest.\n“Wear sunglasses so the pollen is not getting into your eyes as much. Come in after you’ve been outside, change your clothes, take a shower, get the pollen off of you,” she said in a NewsWorks report last year. “Those kind of things can help … and starting medication. There are lots of over-the-counter allergy medications to try. And if that doesn’t work, then you can see your doctor.”\nNewsWorks’ Phil Gregory contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

That is just one of the severe weather myths.\nMany believe rivers and valleys detour tornadoes, but that is also false. We have seen many in the Illinois River valley.\nLikewise, tornadoes often happen within cities. There have been many cases, especially in the Great Planes, where tornadoes have struck metro areas.\nThere is also the old tale that you should seek shelter under an overpass or bridge; that is false too.\nWhat about opening your windows to equalize pressure? That's something you also should never do.\n\"Seconds save lives,\" said Shimon. \" Adding, \"don't worry about what the windows are doing, just get to safe shelter.\"\nLike many, you may have been confused by the tornado drill Tuesday morning.\nIf you have cable or satellite television, the message may have been worded strangely.\nMany expressed concern that the alert stated, \"tornado warning\" and not that it was simply a test.\nThat is because many cable and satellite companies have their own Emergency Alert Systems.\nTuesday serves as an example of how it is important to always be on alert; you never know when Mother Nature could strike.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Don’t forget to accessorize your green garb with an umbrella, as there’s a chance of showers Saturday.\nThe National Weather Service predicts a 30 percent chance of showers Saturday during the daytime, potentially drizzling upon parade-goers at the 22nd annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade through Old Sacramento. Festivities will begin at 11:30 a.m. before the parade steps off at 1 p.m.\nAny precipitation should clear up by Saturday night, when holiday revelers can join up with the Old Sac bar crawl, or go see Sacramento Republic FC’s opening match against San Antonio FC at 7:30 p.m. at Cal Expo. You may want to bring a blanket, though, as lows will drop to about 38 degrees.\nSunday is expected to be mostly sunny, with a high of 59 degrees.\nThose trying to get away for the holiday weekend should keep an eye out for road closures. In the Sierra, a continued snowstorm led to the closure of Interstate 80 in both directions from Colfax in Placer County to the Nevada state line on Friday due to zero visibility over the Donner Summit.\nCaltrans highly discouraged mountain travel, warning motorists to be prepared for near-whiteout conditions.\nThe snowstorm dumped several feet of snow on Lake Tahoe ski resorts, with Heavenly and Kirkwood reporting a 28-inch one-day snowfall, and Northstar reporting 26 inches. A winter storm warning will remain in effect for the greater Lake Tahoe area until 5 a.m. Saturday, according to the National Weather Service.\nNorthstar spokeswoman Stephanie Myers recommended that eager skiers attempting to head to the slopes heed Caltrans warnings, and noted that snowfall is expected to continue through Saturday.\nSunday is expected to be mostly sunny with plenty of fresh powder blanketing the trails — making for “fantastic spring skiing or riding.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The drizzle that often turned into downpour slowed traffic movement before intensifying into heavy showers as dusk set in.\nA tree each was uprooted in Vasanthnagar, KR Puram and Krishnayyanapalya and a branch fell near Thanisandra. Water-logging was reported from CMR College, Banaswadi; Brigade Road; Basappa Circle in Kalasipalya; KEB Junction in Nagawara; 12th Cross in HBR Layout and New Byappanahalli. Water entered a house in Canara Bank Colony of Vidyaranyapura.\nThough the damage was little till late evening, rain made matters worse for many Bengalureans, given the poor state of roads in most localities. The forecast of at least two more wet days added to the gloom. The Indian Meteorological Department has issued a yellow alert in the city and neighbouring districts for Friday. A yellow alert means people are required to be on watch and look out for updates. Civic works under way in Malleswaram, Banaswadi, Ramamurthynagar, Old Madras Road, Banashankari and Indiranagar only added to Bengalureans’ woes.\n“It’s been raining for the past two weeks. I have been using my car to reach office, but today (Thursday) morning the traffic was down to a crawl. It is quite difficult to drive at such times given the bad infrastructure,” said motorist Janardhana H, who was driving from his Banaswadi home to his workplace in Richmond Town.\n“It is difficult to even move around in our locality. Recently, Bescom dug up the road to lay cables. BWSSB dug up roads for installing new water and sewage lines. Neither has fixed the roads properly. When can we lead a normal life,” asked Sandesh Shetty, a resident of Banashankari 2nd Stage.\nAs of 8.30pm, the city received 37mm of rain, whereas Kempegowda International Airport and HAL recorded 20mm and 39.2mm, respectively.\nWith a depression forming over southwest Bay of Bengal, more rain and thunderstorms are expected in Bengaluru, neighbouring districts and coastal Karnataka in the next few days.\nAccording to the Met department, a depression over southwest Bay of Bengal, off North Tamil Nadu coast, is very likely to cross North Tamil Nadu and south Andhra Pradesh coasts early Friday morning. Under the influence of these systems, Karnataka is likely to receive widespread rain for the next four days, with heavy showers at isolated places.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

She has taught science courses at the high school, college, and graduate levels. our editorial process Facebook Facebook Twitter Twitter Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph.D. Updated February 07, 2018 People predicted the weather back in ye good olde days before Doppler radar and GOES satellites using simple instruments. One of the most useful instruments is a barometer, which measures air pressure or barometric pressure. You can make your own barometer using everyday materials and then try to forecast the weather yourself. Barometer Materials glass, jar, or canplastic wrapa strawrubber bandindex card or lined notebook papertapescissors Construct the Barometer Cover the top of your container with plastic wrap. You want to create an airtight seal and a smooth surface.Secure the plastic wrap with a rubber band. The most important part of making the barometer is getting a good seal around the rim of the container.Lay the straw over the top of the wrapped container so that about two-thirds of the straw is over the opening.Secure the straw with a piece of tape.Either tape an index card to the back of the container or else set up your barometer with a sheet of notebook paper behind it.Record the location of the straw on your card or paper.Over time the straw will move up and down in response to changes in air pressure. Watch the movement of the straw and record the new readings. How the Barometer Works High atmospheric pressure pushes on the plastic wrap, causing it to cave in. The plastic and the taped section of straw sink, causing the end of the straw to tilt up. When atmospheric pressure is low, the pressure of the air inside the can is higher. The plastic wrap bulges out, raising the taped end of the straw. The edge of the straw falls until it comes to rest against the rim of the container. Temperature also affects atmospheric pressure so your barometer needs a constant temperature in order to be accurate. Keep it away from a window or other places that experience temperature changes. Predicting the Weather Now that you have a barometer you can use it to help predict the weather. Weather patterns are associated with regions of high and low atmospheric pressure. Rising pressure is associated with dry, cool, and calm weather. Dropping pressure forecasts rain, wind, and storms. Quickly-rising pressure that starts from average or high pressure during fair weather indicates a low-pressure cell is approaching. You can expect the pressure to start to fall as poor weather approaches.Quickly rising pressure (over a few hours or a couple of days) after a period of low pressure means you can expect a short period of good weather.Slowly rising barometric pressure (over a week or so) indicates good weather that will stick around a while.Slowly falling pressure indicates the presence of a nearby low-pressure system. Changes in your weather are unlikely at this time.If the pressure continues to drop slowly you can expect a long period of bad (as opposed to sunny and clear) weather.A sudden drop in pressure (over a few hours) indicates an approaching storm (usually arriving within 5-6 hours). The storm probably involves wind and precipitation, but won't last long.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The February Nymex contract gained 2.7 cents Tuesday to settle at $2.162/MMBtu. March picked up 1.9 cents to $2.153, while April settled at $2.146, up 1.1 cents.\nIn the spot market, amid generally mild conditions nationwide, forecasts offered enough chills to rally hubs in New England and in the Western United States, helping push NGI’s Spot Gas National Avg. a penny higher to $2.090.\nBoth the American and European datasets shifted colder Tuesday after advertising warmer trends overnight, according to NatGasWeather.\nThe data has been “flip-flopping between milder and colder trends every other run for the important Jan. 15-21 period as the weather models struggle to determine just how much frigid Arctic air over southwestern Canada will release across the Midwest,” the forecaster said. “…This will need close monitoring, as colder trends could quickly show in the days ahead, which will be required to finally end bearish weather sentiment.”\nBespoke Weather Services said it continues to see enough tightness in the supply/demand balance to support prices should Mother Nature provide a sustained stretch of “even just normal” temperatures.\nHowever, “that has been a tough chore, and the hope we saw” in Monday’s midday data “was not able to hold in the overnight model cycle,” Bespoke said, noting that this raises the question of whether cooler trends in Tuesday’s midday runs will endure overnight. “We remain skeptical of cold out in the 11-15-day period until it is able to progress forward into the six- to 10-day.\n“We do still see some chance for tropical forcing shifts to allow some of the western cold to escape eastward late month, so there is some risk that, this time, it is not just a bunch of modeled false alarms.”\nWith warmer-than-normal conditions dominating forecasts, the March/April spread, sometimes called the “widowmaker” spread, shifted into negative territory in recent sessions. Last Thursday and Friday — and again on Monday — the March contract settled lower than April.\n“The spread is one gauge of winter risk premiums built into the front-month contract,” analysts at EBW Analytics Group said. “If there were a greater risk of running out of natural gas storage by the end of winter, the spread would be sharply higher.”\nMarch outgained April in Tuesday’s session, settling 0.7 cents higher. In the near term, even a “short-lived” cold snap could prove enough to keep the spread back in positive territory, according to EBW.\n“As the March contract assumes the front-month role at the end of January, however, growing downward pressure may turn the March-April spread increasingly negative” and potentially send futures below $2.00, the EBW analysts said.\nA number of locations in the Rockies and California posted double-digit gains Tuesday as the National Weather Service (NWS) was calling for heavy precipitation over the Pacific Northwest.\n“The Pacific Northwest will continue to be in an active wet pattern with scattered to widespread coastal rains and mountains snows,” the NWS said. Some areas could see a foot or more of snow. “…As the cold front tracks further through the Rockies and out into the Plains by Thursday, showers and thunderstorms will overspread the Mississippi Valley ahead of its arrival.\n“Another round of precipitation will begin to move onshore the Pacific Northwest by late Thursday and continue into the weekend, spreading the snow across the Intermountain West/Rockies and into portions of the Great Basin.”\nGenscape Inc. meteorologists were predicting an extended cold snap for Southern California starting Wednesday, raising the prospect of more withdrawals from the restricted Aliso Canyon storage facility. This also should mean continued upward pressure on spot prices in the region, Genscape analyst Joe Bernardi said.\nSouthern California Gas (SoCalGas) has pulled 8.9 Bcf from Aliso since Nov. 20, with the utility sending out 2.981 Bcf/d on average to cover demand during that time frame, according to Bernardi. That’s the highest mark for that period since 2016.\n“However, during that stretch of time in 2016, SoCal Citygate basis price averaged just 16 cents and never got above 50 cents,” the analyst said. “This past year, from Nov. 20 through the end of the end of the year, SoCal Citygate basis price averaged $3.34 and never got below $2.05.”\nWhile SoCal Citygate prices have been elevated on average, they have not spiked to the extreme highs observed in the 2017/18 and 2018/19 winters, Bernardi said.\n“The difference so far between this winter and the previous two has been greater availability for imports and storage withdrawals,” Bernardi said. “…With Genscape meteorologists forecasting colder-than-normal weather for Southern California” starting Wednesday and continuing for the next week and a half, “prices could continue to remain elevated, and more withdrawals from Aliso Canyon appear likely. SoCalGas’ overall storage has remained fairly robust thus far: the latest system-wide inventory is 111% of the average for this date following the Aliso leak.”\nMeanwhile, New England prices rallied Tuesday as temperatures in the region were expected to cool off somewhat over the next few days. Algonquin Citygate added 20.0 cents to average $3.225, while Iroquois Zone 2 jumped 67.5 cents to $3.100.\nMaxar’s Weather Desk was calling for lows in Boston to drop from the mid-30s on Tuesday down into the low-20s by Thursday.\nElsewhere, prices were steady throughout much of the middle third of the Lower 48. Regional averages from the Gulf Coast to the Southeast all traded within a nickel of even, and it was a similar story for the Midwest, Midcontinent and Appalachia. Henry Hub averaged $2.105, up half a penny.\n© 2020 Natural Gas Intelligence. All rights reserved.\nISSN © 2577-9877 | ISSN © 2577-9966 |","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Reuters could not independently verify the report as local authorities could not be immediately reached.\nThe weather is the latest in the U.S.'s freakish winter storms that sent temperatures plunging to near zero wind chill in the western Plains even as numerous record highs are forecast for the eastern U.S.\nThe Texas tornadoes shifted the national focus away from the Southeast where days of tumultuous weather including tornadoes left 18 people dead over the Christmas holiday period.\nNational Weather Service Meteorologist Anthony Bain in Fort Worth, Texas, said two or possibly three tornadoes touched down in the Dallas area, although the full extent of damage would not be known until daylight Sunday.\nWFAA television in Dallas showed video of damage to homes, a church and vehicles stretching from Garland, about 30 kilometres northeast of Dallas to Glenn Heights, 30 kilometres south of the city.\nThe emergency manager of Ellis county south of Dallas, Stephanie Parker, posted on twitter: \"We have destroyed and damaged homes. Please do not get out on the roads if you do not have to.\"\nThe twisters — accompanied by torrential rain, wind and some hail — were part of a weather system that could produce major flooding from north Texas through eastern Oklahoma, eastern Kansas, western Arkansas and parts of Missouri.\nThe severe weather snarled air traffic in the Dallas area. The Dallas Mavericks NBA game was delayed by 30 minutes because of the storm.\nWest Texas, New Mexico brace for snow\nOn the other side of Texas and including much of New Mexico, a snowstorm accompanied by plunging temperatures was expected to leave up to 40 centimetres of snow through Sunday evening, according to NWS meteorologist Brendon Rubin-Oster in College Park, Maryland.\n\"It's going to be quite dangerous for anyone exposed to these elements,\" Rubin-Oster said.\nSnow fell as the Sun Bowl college football game between Miami and Washington State Saturday afternoon and El Paso was forecast to get 15 to 20 centimetres of snow overnight.\nJason Strunk, the football coach at Lubbock High School in West Texas, said he was checking his home's pipes and laying out cat litter for traction on his sidewalk and driveway, just as he learned growing up and living in colder climates farther north. Strunk's major concern was unprepared drivers going out on wet, icy roads.\n\"When we get an inch or two, people panic,\" he said. \"They really don't know how to drive in this kind of stuff.\"\nMeanwhile, two more deaths linked to weather were reported Saturday in Mississippi, bringing that state's death toll from severe weather over Christmas to 10. Late Saturday, one death was reported in Alabama.\nFlash flooding closed roads across Alabama and trapped motorists in rapidly rising waters.\nBoy saved from flooded car\nRanager Tyler and his son waded into flood water Christmas night and used rope to pull an 11-year-old boy out after his family's car was swept away near Pinson, about 24 kilometres northeast of Birmingham.\n\"The little boy was hanging on to the back of the car,\" Tyler said Saturday.\nThe family's car was overcome with flood water and ended up in a ditch near Tyler's Pinson home. The rushing water separated the family as they got out of the car, he said. The boy was later reunited with his family.\nMississippi Emergency Management Agency spokesman Greg Flynn said 56 injuries were reported. In a statement, Flynn said preliminary damage estimates show 241 homes were destroyed or severely damaged.\nMore than 400 homes in total were affected, he said. Severe storms are forecast for Sunday night through Monday as a strong cold front pushes through. Tornadoes are possible, and residents are asked to remain alert.\nThe flooding is the result of heavy downpours that have thrashed the southeastern U.S. since Wednesday, bringing record rainfalls in some areas. Four inches of rain walloped the city of Mobile, Ala., on Wednesday — smashing the previous record of 5.6 centimetres set in 1990.\nSix people were killed in Tennessee, including three who were found in a car submerged in a creek, according to the Columbia Police Department. The Tennessee Emergency Management Agency said Saturday that authorities were monitoring areas for possible flooding.\nOne person died in Arkansas, and dozens of homes were damaged or destroyed.\nOne bit of good news for the battered Southeast was a forecast for calmer weather on Sunday. Temperatures in the eastern third of the country could set numerous records Sunday, Rubin-Oster said. Washington, D.C. could see a record daily temperature of 23 C Sunday, New York City 18 C —which would break a record of more than 50 years —and Orlando, Florida could tie a record of 30 C set in 1921.\nFlood warnings in effect\nIn Alabama, Gov. Robert Bentley on Saturday visited weather-damaged areas in Coffee County. A statement from the governor's office said that about 190 roads across Alabama were closed due to flooding.\nAuthorities on Saturday recovered the body of a five-year-old boy who drowned after the car he was riding in was submerged by floodwaters on Friday, said Coffee County Coroner Robert Preachers. The search is ongoing for a 22-year-old man who was also in the car.\nA flood warning was in effect late Saturday afternoon for parts of northern Alabama.\nPart of the damage was caused by a tornado that touched down in Birmingham on Friday evening.\nPeak tornado season in the South is in the spring, but such storms can happen at any time. Exactly a year ago, tornadoes hit Mississippi, killing five people and injuring dozens.\nWith files from CBC News and Reuters","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

These high concentrations are why the new instrument detected the event it wasn’t exactly looking for.\nNASA’s Earth Surface Mineral Dust Source Investigation — known as EMIT — originally went into space to map minerals in this planet’s deserts to understand how dust from those locations affects global climate. Methane detection is a bonus.\n“It’s not formally part of the mission as stated and funded,” said Andrew K. Thorpe, a research technologist at JPL who works on the project and has studied methane emissions for the past decade. “I’m just taking a small subset of the data that’s already being collected on this other NASA mission and using it for the methane work.”\nThis new cloud near Carlsbad vented more than 40,300 pounds of methane per hour.\nIn addition to the image, NASA documented an hour-long release rate at the site that was far greater than the amount reported for all of 2022 at the nearest drill site. “OCD immediately contacted NASA for more information and began investigating a possible major release as soon as the information became available,” said Sidney Hill, spokesman for the Department of Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources, operating under the OCD is. He said that the day after receiving the NASA press release, OCD inspectors were on site examining the area in the photo.\nInvisible and poisonous in New Mexico\nThat clue and the colorful image from Karlovy Vary were the first mentions of methane on the project’s website, but the discovery of the climate-warming gas wasn’t entirely unexpected. The EMIT instrument on the ISS is an updated version of a similar project that has been mapping methane emissions in the Permian Basin in recent years.\nThorpe said that earlier project defined places like those near Carlsbad as “super emitters” because of the phenomenal amounts of methane they release.\nOn those previous flights, he said, they detected emissions from wells and other equipment ranging from 22 to 44,000 pounds of methane per hour. The upper end of this range were the “super emitters”.\nThis new cloud near Carlsbad vented more than 40,300 pounds of methane per hour. Thorpe said, “We can confidently say that these are large emissions and they belong to this ‘super emitter’ class.” This class accounts for a small percentage of the total number of emission sites, but collectively their huge amounts account for 40% contributes up to 50% to methane emissions for a given area, he said.\n“OCD understands that the NASA images indicate the point of estimated highest concentration at the time the image was taken, but do not necessarily identify the specific source,” Hill said. “OCD checked the entire area around the cloud. OCD is still reviewing the results of its on-site investigation.”\nOverlay of NASA image with OCD’s online oil and gas map shows the highest concentration of methane at Harroun Com #001, a well operated by Marathon Oil. Thorpe said the reading was taken “in the July-August period” but he couldn’t pinpoint the exact date because guidelines violate the release of individual data points (like a single emission) before the release of an entire dataset.\nLast year, OCD introduced new statewide venting and flaring regulations to reduce the industry’s natural gas emissions to less than 2% of total production emissions by 2026, so what arrives at a pipeline matches what comes out of the well comes out.\nFailing to report an emission like the one in the NASA image can result in fines of up to $2,500 a day, according to Hill.\nKarina Brooks, a communications manager at Marathon Oil, said via email: “Based on our initial review of the data, including our wells in the area, it does not appear that our operations are the source(s) of methane emissions reflected in the photo .”\nThorpe said high concentrations of methane like that at the center of the plume point to the source of a leak, but “other than that there’s a bit of ambiguity.” The pixel size of the instrument’s camera captures squares 60 feet in diameter, so smaller locations cannot be distinguished. But the closest well or other equipment is over 2,200 feet from the cloud’s hot spot and the Marathon well.\nThe NASA-documented release rate of 40,300 pounds of methane per hour is 5% higher than the total venting reported to the state from Marathon’s well for all of 2022 to date. That’s an amount roughly equivalent to the greenhouse gas emissions of 100 cars driven for a year, released into the atmosphere every hour.\n“We will be working with the state agency to investigate the matter, which limits our ability to deal with it [this] Check out the details at this point,” Brooks said.\nLet us know what you think…\nThorpe said the image is a snapshot due to the nature of the ISS’s orbit, which is offset by several degrees each time it races around the globe. It orbits the earth about 16 times a day, but because of the offset, it takes three days to fly over the same spot.\n“We don’t know if it has emitted before. We don’t know if it emitted afterwards. But we know we caught an emission at that location,” he said.\n“I find it frightening that it’s so close,” said Kayley Shoup, an organizer with environmental and community group Citizens Caring for the Future. She lives in Karlovy Vary and is concerned about the associated gases escaping with methane, contributing to ozone and smog in the area and causing breathing problems.\nGET THE TOMORROW HEADLINES IN YOUR INBOX\nThe EPA has indicated it may soon make the Permian Basin an ozone depletion zone under the Clean Air Act, which would require tighter controls on emissions from oil and gas fields.\nHill said OCD is investigating the release to find the source but could not comment further on a case that is still under investigation.\nAnd maybe OCD should prepare for similar investigations in the future. Thorpe said methane information from EMIT and other dedicated methane-tracking satellites, due to be launched over the next two years, will greatly improve the world’s ability to find, locate and measure oil and gas methane emissions. “There will be more examples and shared more often,” he said.\n“I think it’s in everyone’s best interest to know about it,” he said. “You give people data and hopefully they will use it appropriately.”\nThorpe said JPL plans to launch a public data portal with all mission data early next year. Shoup said she’s excited to have a new online resource to document large methane emissions in her backyard. “This is really such wonderful news,” she said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The current predictions indicate a steady, unspectacular stream of snow through the rest of the day, with snowfall picking up overnight into Jan. 27 and potentially leaving more than 36 inches of snow on the ground in some areas. The size of the weather system is itself remarkable, as it's predicted to impact an area ranging from northern Maine south through most of New Jersey, including all points in between. Major cities in the area, from Bangor, Maine to Providence, Rhode Island and Newark, New Jersey are all preparing for a major storm that could have a serious impact on personal safety and business operations.\n\"The National Weather Service called the weather system both historic and life threatening.\"\nTravel will be difficult if not impossible\nCNN reported that the governors of Connecticut, Massachusetts and New York had all taken measures to keep residents safe and reduce the potential harm of the situation. The two New England states both have driving bans in place for the night of Jan. 26, while New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo declared a state of emergency and said he is considering a travel ban as well. New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio instituted a city-wide driving restriction for all privately owned vehicles starting late Monday.\nReaction is likely warranted\nAlthough the true severity of the storm won't be known until it passes over the area or dissipates, predictions from agencies careful in language use and threat assessment such as the National Weather Service are dire. CNN said that agency called the weather system both historic and life threatening. The wide area of impact as well as the heavily populated nature of that region are both factors in the response thus far to the storm.\nBusiness, school and road closures\nReuters pointed out the various travel and parking bans as an attempt to limit\nthe chance of injuries and death. Businesses in the busy Northeast corridor are less than happy about the plans, but the need for safety is obvious and paramount. Companies that are only now planning for the effects of the storm are at a disadvantage as compared to those with the right risk identification tools in place. With local and international travel likely to become a short-term impossibility, organizations that don't have contingency plans in place or haven't been able to enact those plans will suffer during the days it takes to dig out afterward.\nThanks for contacting NC4!

Do you think that the affects will be similar to Frances & Jeanne last year? Better or worse?\nI do not believe that Wilma will be as bad for Pinellas County as Frances or Jeanne was, unless the storm moves farther north than expected. As of now, we are probably looking at tropical storm force gusts (45-55mph), but nothing more. If you recall, Jeanne and Frances both generated a strong onshore NW wind on the Pinellas coast that--because of unimpeded flow over the Gulf--gave us sustained TS winds with some hurricane force gusts during Jeanne on the immediate coast. When Wilma is at its closest, our winds will be from the east over land, thus we will not get a severe \"backlash\" on the coast. This, coupled with the fact that we will be on the weaker northern side of the storm, will probably result in only sustained winds around 30-35 mph with gusts to TS force. Of course, we still should be preparing for a direct hit , because we are still within the cone of uncertainty. Most likely, however, Wilma will come in a bit south of us...how far south remains to be seen.\n-------------------- Ronn Raszetnik - Hazards Geographer\nYou cannot start new topics\nYou cannot reply to topics\nHTML is disabled\nUBBCode is enabled\nThread views: 53765\nNote: This is NOT an official page.

The dead also included a two-year old boy and four women.\nThe severe cyclone, which entered Bangladesh through the southwestern region earlier this morning, also wounded several people though it weakened strength while barrelling into Bangladesh overland.\nThe deadly storm uprooted trees, knocked down power lines and damaged more than 500 houses.\nBangladesh authorities said over 1.6 million people were shifted to safer places as about 36 villages were flooded after the storm surge breached embankments in the country's coastal areas.\nMeanwhile, in Odisha, a massive restoration-and-relief work was launched on war-footing on Saturday across 10,000 villages and urban areas.\nThe storm unleashed copious rain and windstorm that gusted up to 200 kmph, blowing away thatched roofs of houses, swamping towns and villages, before weakening and entering West Bengal.\nAround 2,000 emergency workers, along with civil society organisations, personnel of the NDRF, the Odisha Disaster Rapid Action Force (ODRAF) and one lakh officials, were engaged in the restoration work, Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik said in a statement, before leaving for an aerial survey of the affected areas.\nThe toll due to Cyclone Fani, which stood at eight on Friday, mounted to 16 Saturday -- four deaths in Mayurbhanj district, 3 each in Puri, Bhubaneswar and Jajpur; and 1 each in Keonjhar, Nayagarh and Kendrapara.\nPrime Minister Narendra Modi, who, spoke to Patnaik and discussed the prevailing situation in the aftermath of Fani's landfall, is likely to visit the affected areas either on Sunday or Monday, CMO sources said.\nThe prime minister has assured continuous support from the Centre.\n\"Spoke to Odisha CM Naveen Patnaik Ji and discussed the situation prevailing due to Cyclone Fani. Assured continuous support from the Central Government ... The entire nation stands in solidarity with all those affected by the cyclone in different parts,\" Modi said in a tweet.\nThe districts of Puri and Khurda were the worst-affected, the chief minister said, adding that Cuttack, Bhadrak, Kendrapara, Jagatsinghpur, Balasore, Mayurbhanj, Keonjhar, Dhenkanal and Nayagarh were also hit by the cyclone.\nWest Bengal heaved a sigh of relief as Fani weakened on Saturday morning before moving towards Bangladesh. There was no report of any casualty or major damage in the districts through which the cyclone passed.\nWith the cyclonic storm moving away, flight operations resumed at Kolkata and Bhubaneswar Airport on Saturday. On Friday, the equipment and infrastructure at the Bhubaneswar airport was considerably damaged due to the cyclone 'Fani'.\nThe India Meteorological Department (IMD) has classified 'Fani' as an \"extremely severe cyclonic storm\".

Sturtevant emptied his rain gauge Feb. 1 and by Saturday had collected more than 17 inches of rainfall, he said.\n\"Back in the 70s, we used to get rain really hard like this, but this is most extreme,\" he said. \"It's huge.\"\nMost of Sonoma County had 24-hour totals were in the 2-inch to 4-inch range, while Sebastopol came in with 5.95 inches, Sonoma had 6.5 inches, and Guerneville had 6.\nCazadero's official rainfall total was 8.76 inches by 4 p.m. Saturday, but around the hills, some folks with gauges reported upwards of 12 to 14 inches, Fort Ross Fire Chief Paul Ginesi said.\nReadings from Lakes Sonoma and Mendocino that would reflect the most recent influx of rain were not available before midnight Saturday, and the levels were expected to rise for several days before the full measure of the storm was clear, water agency personnel said.\nBut already, gauges on the Russian River demonstrated significantly swelling - the flow rate at the Hacienda Bridge, for instance, rising from just more than 500 cubic feet per second at midnight to 4,410 cfs by 7:15 p.m. Saturday.\nThere were also signs that steelhead waiting downstream for months to spawn were finally moving upstream and, likely, coho salmon, as well, DuBay said. The flow has been so low that the Fish and Game Commission on Wednesday voted to close it anglers through April 30, though the closure doesn't take effect for another two weeks or so.\nSaturday's rain fell heaviest during the morning, inundating local waterways and raising levels so fast the weather service issued a flash-flood warning for much of Sonoma County.\nThe alert sent fire personnel to scout traditional problem areas around the west and south county areas, but they more often found surface flooding related to clogged drainage and culverts than streams overflowing their banks.\nSurface flooding temporarily closed several roads that are usually the first to go under in heavy rain: Highway 1 at Valley Ford Road; Green Valley Road at Ross Road, and Graton Road, in Graton; Skylane at Aviation Boulevard in north Santa Rosa; Stony Point Road at Rohnert Park Expressway, and Scenic and Langner avenues near Rohnert Park; and Highway 12 and 121 south of Sonoma, among them.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In more than 135 years of global temperature data, four of the five hottest months on record all happened in 2015: February, March, May, and now June.\nThis has been the hottest start to a year by far, according to data released on Monday July 20th by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The record heat is likely to continue as an already strong “El Niño” weather pattern in the Pacific Ocean continues to intensify, ripping more heat into the atmosphere. This “Monster El Niño” may itself be on track to break records.\nIn temperatures recorded in monthly measurements dating back to 1880, thirteen of the 14 hottest years are in the 21st century, and 2015 is on track to raise the bar again.\nResults from the world’s top monitoring agencies vary slightly. NOAA and the Japan Meteorological Agency both had June as the hottest month on record. NASA had it as tied with June 1998 for the hottest. All three agencies agree that there has never been a hotter start to the year than the past six months.\nThe heat was experienced differently across the world, but few places escaped it altogether. The map below shows a few purple spots of cooler-than-average temperatures, and plenty of record-breaking red. The massive stretch of chart-topping heat in the Pacific Ocean is the footprint of El Niño.\nThis year’s heat is a continuation of trends that made 2014 the hottest on record. The blistering start to 2015 may be just the beginning. The National Weather Service predicts that the unusually warm waters of the El Niño have a 90 percent chance of persisting through the 2015-2016 winter and an 80 percent chance of lasting through next spring.\nThe most powerful El Niño on record was in 1997-98.

Timely information from space-weather forecasters, who realized that it was a powerful solar flare jamming the radar, managed to prevent military action just in time.\nJust a few days earlier, an unusually large group of sunspots — cooler surface regions on the Sun associated with stronger solar magnetic fields — had rotated into Earth’s view. … Observers documented a large solar flare erupting from the solar surface at 18:40 UT (2:40 p.m. EDT): a burst of powerful radio waves and X-rays was headed straight for Earth. …\nUnaware of the solar activity, outside agencies and officials at the highest levels of the U.S. government put nuclear fighter jets on high alert, even as the Air Force’s Air Weather Service (AWS) was notifying the North American Air Defense Command (NORAD) of the solar activity. Stationed at NORAD on the day of the solar flare was now-retired colonel Arnold L. Snyder, who recalls coordinating with a tropospheric weather forecaster also working at NORAD during the day of the event: “I specifically recall responding with excitement [to the atmospheric weather forecaster], ‘Yes, half the sun has blown away!’ and then related the event details in a calmer, more quantitative way.”\nSEE COMPLETE TEXT","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

While you’ve got the where to go covered, we’ve compiled a calendar so you can know exactly when the next meteor shower will be happening throughout the year.\nPeak night: January 3–4, 2023\nActive between December 26, 2022, and January 16, 2023, the Quadrantids peak late at night on January 3 and into the early morning hours of January 4. Under the best conditions, you’ll see an average of 25 meteors per hour during the Quadrantids, making it one of the stronger showers of the year. Unfortunately, the moon will be 92 percent full on this night making it harder to see the meteors under the bright moonlight.\nPeak night: April 22–23, 2023\nTypically, the Lyrids are only considered to be a medium strength meteor shower. In 2023, they will peak on a night when the moon is only nine percent full, making it easier to see meteors against the nearly dark sky. The entire Lyrid meteor shower is active from April 15 to April 29, 2023, and it is best seen from the Northern Hemisphere. You can also view it from the Southern Hemisphere, but expect lower rates of meteors there.\nPeak night: May 5–6, 2023\nBest seen from the southern tropics, the Eta Aquariids are active between April 15 and May 27, 2023. The moon will be 100 percent full, making it very hard to see these meteors.\nSouthern Delta Aquariids\nPeak night: July 30–31, 2023\nBest viewed from the southern tropics, the Southern Delta Aquariids are active between July 18 and August 21, 2023. The peak night will happen on July 30, when the moon will be 95 percent full making it hard to see this meteor shower.\nPeak night: July 30–31, 2023\nThe same night, the Alpha Capricornids will peak. Seen just as well from the Northern and Southern Hemispheres, the entire meteor shower is active between July 7 and August 15, 2023. Even though it’s not a strong shower (expect only about five meteors per hour), the ones you will see are likely to be bright fireballs.\nPeak night: August 12–13, 2023\nWhile the Perseids are not the strongest shower of the year (that title goes to the Geminids in December), they are the most popular because they fall on warm summer nights. Active between July 14 and September 1, 2023, the Perseids will max out the night of August 12, 2023. This year, the moon will be 10 percent full on this night, providing relatively dark skies to see these meteors.\nPeak night: October 20–21, 2023\nIn exceptional years, the Orionids can produce up to 75 meteors per hour. But that hasn’t happened since 2009. In a normal year, as 2023 is predicted to be, expect between 10 to 20 meteors per hour. The moon will be 37 percent full that night. The entire shower is active between September 26 and November 22, 2023.\nPeak night: November 17-18, 2023\nWhile the Leonids can produce outbursts of activity in certain years, 2023 is expected to only get about 15 meteors per hour during the shower’s peak on the night of November 17, into the predawn hours of November 18. The moon will also be 23 percent full that night. Lasting from November 3 to December 2, 2023, the Leonids are known for particularly bright meteors.\nPeak night: December 13–14, 2023\nThe Geminids are the strongest meteor shower of the year. In 2023, the peak falls on the night of December 13, when the moon will be just one percent full, making dark sky conditions ideal. Around 50 meteors per hour are expected during the Geminids each year. The entire shower lasts from November 19 to December 24, 2023.\nRemember, light pollution is your enemy. As you start planning trips to catch these celestial shows, be sure to seek out a dark sky place by searching the International Dark-Sky Association’s website for locations. It also doesn’t hurt to consult annual weather reports to double-check whether or not you’ll have to contend with cloud cover. Once you’re there, head outside for about 45 minutes before the meteor shower hits its peak so your eyes can adjust to the dark. And don’t forget to bring chairs and blankets to stay comfy and cozy.\nThis article originally appeared online in 2019; it was updated most recently on January 3, 2023 to include current information.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Their decisions were made in part, on forecasts from National Weather Service experts.\nUnfortunately, those weather experts misjudged the path and impact of the blizzard that struck the Northeast yesterday and today, in large part because they used the wrong forecasting model, several independent meteorologists now say. Rather than rely on their own forecasting system—upgraded in recent weeks—the federal experts relied instead on a well-regarded European computer model that predicted the worst of this storm would squarely hit New York City. That system earlier had outperformed the U.S. forecasting system in predicting the path of Superstorm Sandy.\nThis time, however, the European forecasting model was wrong. The winter storm, predicted to be one of the worst ever to hit New York City, produced only roughly eight inches of snow in the city.\nToday, as travel bans were lifted and transit services were gradually restored, the impact of yesterday’s decision to shut down the subway and order most drivers off the roads continued to be felt across the region. What’s more, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio now face a blizzard of criticism because millions of people missed work and school even through the streets were largely clear.\nThat’s certainly not to imply the storm was a washout. Indeed, as the storm pushed across eastern New England today, it brought whiteout conditions driven by gale-force winds. As snow continued to fall today, forecasters were still expecting the predicted two to three feet of snow. In Shrewsbury, about 40 miles west of Boston, 31 inches had fallen this morning while nearby Worcester had received 26 inches of snow and was on track to break records. In Framingham, about 15 miles west of Boston, there was about 30 inches this morning.\nIn some respects, it’s easy to say it’s wintertime, and, well, snow happens. However, climate change reports from last year indicate this type of winter storm—and summer torrential rains, for that matter—will become more common.\nWith these types of weather events expected to happen with greater frequency, companies may wish to revisit initiatives to review how suppliers may be effected by storms, and how the supply chain would be disrupted if major highways are closed—as they were yesterday in some areas. It would increase their ability to mitigate risks before they develop and, perhaps, lead to creating plans to react quickly and flexibly in the event of such disruptions. That would enable companies to address the potential for reducing or disrupting production capacity, reduced demand for goods, and even the inability to do business.\nThe challenge for many of these companies is that with a large and increasingly global supply base, and supplier data scattered across disparate and diverse systems, most companies are simply overwhelmed with supplier information management—and applying this information to supplier risk management is even more daunting.\nDid your company see any impact from this blizzard in the Northeast? Are there any provisions for this type of storm?","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

You have to go back nearly 10 months ago to July 30th of last year!\nAnother record will be challenged on Wednesday in Syracuse that has stood for more than 80 years! 91° is the current record on Wednesday in Syracuse and we are forecasting a high of 89°, but certainly could get to, if not exceed 91 with enough sunshine.

The study and dating of the aeolian, alluvial, detrital sediments, calcareous crusts and speleothems have established that the climatic-environmental variations recorded on the island can be related chronologically to those known for northern Libya, Tunisia and the Italian peninsula. During the Last Glacial Maximum, phases of Saharan dust accumulation on Lampedusa occurred, and were coeval with dust accumulation in crater lakes and on high mountains in central-southern Italy, and with phases of glacial advance in the Apennines and in the Alps. During the late Holocene, accumulation of Saharan dust on Lampedusa occurred but there was little accumulation of dust on the northern side of the Mediterranean Sea. With the new data from Lampedusa, it is possible to envisage two different scenarios of atmospheric circulation relating to the Last Glacial Maximum and to the late Holocene. During the Last Glacial Maximum, southerly atmospheric circulation brought rainfall to the southern slopes of the Alps and to the Apennines. During the late Holocene, a prevalent westerly atmospheric circulation became established in the northern Mediterranean. © 2004 John Wiley and Sons, Ltd.\nAll Science Journal Classification (ASJC) codes\n- Arts and Humanities (miscellaneous)\n- Earth and Planetary Sciences (miscellaneous)","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

EDT (2325 GMT) on Sunday (April 1), with a window that could extend into early Monday, officials from the ESA Space Debris Office said today (March 31). US analyst group Aerospace Corp., which also tracks Tiangong-1, predicts that Tiangong-1\nThe time for the uncontrolled descent of Tiangong-1 remains highly uncertain, largely due to the calm of the sun. When the sun is active, its energy pushes more against the earth's atmosphere. The atmosphere then rises and becomes denser at higher altitudes. The density of the atmosphere influences the resistance to the rotational speed of Tiangong-1. As Tiangong-1 loses energy due to air resistance, it falls toward the earth.\n\"ESA's space debris team has adjusted its reentry forecast over the past 24 hours to take account of low solar activity conditions, further confirming that the forecast window will be postponed to a later date on April 1,\" ESA said -Official in an update from 5:00 pm EDT (0900 GMT).\n\"The team now forecasts a window at 23:25 UTC April (01:25 CEST April 2) and runs from the afternoon of April 1 until the early morning of April 2. That remains very variable.\"\nTiangong-1 predicted reentry Time has been repeatedly adjusted in recent days because the sun was quieter than expected, the ESA added. \"A high-speed beam of particles from the sun that should reach Earth and affect the planet's geomagnetic field actually had no effect, and now a quieter space weather is expected around the Earth and its atmosphere days,\" it said.\nChina launched Tiangong-1 in 2011 and remained active for five years. It housed two astronaut crews and an unmanned docking mission. The Chinese manned space engineering bureau, which oversees the country's human spaceflight missions, lost contact with the station in 2016. Since then, the 9.4-ton (8.5 tonne) module naturally falls toward the earth.\nIn 2016 China launched a successor space station called Tiangong-2, which is still active today.\nTiangong-1 orbits the earth with a dip between 43 degrees north and 43 degrees south latitudes, so theoretically any location on this path could fall. This strip of geographic expansion includes much of the populated world, including the United States.\nHowever, the chances of a single location being hit are negligible, even worse than winning the Powerball jackpot. While Tiangong-1 is likely to produce spectacular fireballs during his descent, astrophysicist Jonathan McDowell of Harvard University predicts only 220-440 pounds. (100 to 200 kg) will make it to the surface.\nDebris from space sometimes causes interesting falls on the surface of the earth. The most famous example was NASA's Skylab Space Station, which unexpectedly threw parts into rural Australia after the agency tried to channel them to the ocean.\nFollow us @Spacedotcom Facebook and Google+.

The plant consists of an absorber, a flash tank, a stripper and a regenerator. Two thermodynamic models including PRMHV₂ and PSRK were utilized for this plant. The sensitivity analysis study was conducted using two methods, namely Method A and Method B. Method A considered the effect of an individual parameter on the emissions, while other parameters were set at their base case values. Method B studied the impact of a given parameter, while other parameters were at their optimum values. Using the two methods, BTEX emission reduced more than 40%, while VOCs and CO₂ emissions were decreased more than 60%. However, the moisture content of the dehydrated gas was higher when Method A was applied (249.9 × 10⁻⁶ kg H₂O/m³) compared to Method B (65.7 × 10⁻⁶ kg H₂O/m³).

Beneath him was the landscape of Moore, Oklahoma. Around him was the storm that killed 24 people in May 2013.\nWith support from Virginia Tech’s Institute of Creativity, Arts, and Technology, a student and faculty team from the geography department in the College of Natural Resources and Environment created the storm in the Moss Arts Center facility known as the Cube — a highly adaptable space for research and experimentation in immersive environments.\nCantore was tipped off by Kathryn Prociv, a Virginia Tech geography graduate who is now a producer at The Weather Channel.\nShe had been a storm chaser with the Virginia Tech team for three years before completing her master’s degree research on the effects of changes in land surfaces on rotating storm intensity in the Appalachian Mountain region.\nWhen Prociv asked her former instructor Dave Carroll what was happening at her alma mater, he told her about the tornado re-creation in the Cube. Cantore promptly made arrangements to visit, accompanied by Greg Forbes, The Weather Channel’s severe weather expert.\nReal weather delayed the visit a few months, but on Feb. 6 Cantore was immersed in the re-created storm and broadcasting live.\nThe project was born when Bill Carstensen, professor and head of the Department of Geography, told Benjamin Knapp, director of the Institute of Creativity, Arts, and Technology, about Carroll’s 3-D images of storms.\n“We could build a tornado in the Cube,” Carstensen told Knapp during intermission at an event at the Moss Arts Center. Knapp urged him to write a proposal. Subsequently, a $25,000 Science, Engineering, Art, and Design grant from the institute made it possible to hire Kenyon Gladu of Troutville, Virginia, a junior majoring in meteorology, and Trevor White of Henrico, Virginia, a master’s student in geography.\nGladu worked with radar data and White did the programming to retrieve the needed NEXRAD (Next-Generation Radar) data and render it appropriately. Institute staffer Run Yu of Beijing, China, a computer science doctoral student in the College of Engineering, placed the storm in the cube.\n“We decided to produce that tornadic supercell because it was a catastrophic event,” said Carroll. He was south of Moore with the Virginia Tech storm chase team at the time it occurred. The team members can often safely position themselves within a mile of a storm, but not in that instance.\n“It formed in the suburbs of Oklahoma City. We couldn’t engage the storm because of the hazards in that environment — traffic, people fleeing,” he said. “We had to back off.”\n“People on the ground could not observe that storm from all angles and directions,” said Carstensen. “But NEXRAD radar captured data throughout the storm. It provided hundreds of thousands of data points in 3-D with several attributes at each data point, including the intensity of precipitation and the direction and speed of floating particulates.\n“Our meteorology degree program ties in geospatial science with weather data — to meld atmospheric data with ground data. Geospatial science can register ground data — the rolling hills of Oklahoma and the land cover, such as agriculture, prairie, forests, and urban development. So in this re-creation of the Moore storm, there is the land cover on the ground and the storm above in perfect position.”\nThe Cube allows complete tracking of where a subject is standing, moving, and looking. An Oculus head-mounted display provides an image of what the subject would see from any vantage point. If there are two people in the cube, they will see each other as avatars and will be able to see different points of view and exchange information.\n“Eventually, you will be able to zoom in, to control the scale of what you see,” said Carstensen.\n“It’s like a game environment in which you are embedded in the computer,” explained Carroll. “You can then study storms from different perspectives than in the field. You can peel away the outer layers of rain so you can see the business end of the storm. It is a more effective way of looking at storm structure.”\n“It will be a valuable tool for researchers, forecasters, and students,” said Carstensen.\nThe ultimate goal is to bring real-time radar into the Cube — “real time” in this instance being only a four- or five-minute delay. Carstensen and Carroll met with Mike Kleist, a Virginia Tech mathematics graduate who is now vice president of engineering at Weather Services International (WSI), a weather graphics software company.\n“Mike said real time was absolutely doable,” said Carstensen. “We could visualize the whole East Coast, or any place that has been mapped, overlain by a snow storm, or a storm surge model.”\n“This has great potential for emergency managers,” said Carroll.\nThe Weather Channel's Jim Cantore in the Cube\nThe Weather Channel's Jim Cantore dons a sophisticated virtual reality headset alongside Bill Carstensen (left), a professor and head of the Department of Geography at Virginia Tech, and a student at Virginia Tech.

Pulses, another essential basket of legumes, have been sown over 13.9 million hectares, marginally higher than normal.\n“Standing water could cause crops to wilt,” said Gambhir Singh, a farmer from Haryana’s Babbain region, speaking in Hindi.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It was visible in all parts of the country and is believed to be a piece of an asteroid.\nThe fireball was first spotted by Spanish scientists at 22:25 local time on Sunday as it passed over the southern regions of Andalucia, Granada and Jaen.\nThe object was described as a part of an asteroid to El Pais by Jose Maria Madiedo, an astrophysicist of the University of Huelva.\nIt was “considerable in size” so that \"it could survive its passage through the Earth's atmosphere,\" Madiedo told Europa Press.\nProfessor Madiedo indicated that the object was detected by a network of high-sensitivity cameras of the University of Huelva, installed at 10 stations in Andalusia and Castilla.\nThe fireball was also spotted by astronomical stations in the regions of Toledo, Seville, Almeria, Sierra Nevada and Granada.\nWitnesses claimed to have heard an explosion associated with the fireball, and to have felt a tremor similar to an earthquake. They’ve described it as being “brighter than the moon.”\nEyewitness accounts and preliminary analysis of the phenomenon led scientists to believe that the “fireball” could have fallen to the ground in the form of a meteorite, Spanish media reported.\nAnother meteor-like object was caught on cameras last Tuesday, when a large fireball exploded over Siberia. One of the witnesses told RT that it “wasn’t as light as day, but still quite bright.”\nIt was seen for three or four seconds and around half a minute later there was a loud bang, triggering car alarms in many parts of the city, the witness said.\nThe apparent meteor burned up high in the atmosphere as little or no blast sound was heard on the ground by most eyewitnesses, the Emergencies Ministry announced.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The region has experienced a steady decline in the number of annual high-ozone days, with none being experienced in 2009, 2013, and 2014. Continued air quality improvements and emissions reductions are expected.\nThe region has taken several proactive measures to achieve cleaner air in accordance with the Ozone Action Plan approved by the EPA on April 23, 2013, such as retiring the coal-fired Chesapeake Energy Center as of December 31, 2014 and performing fuel conversions at other power facilities; implementing the Port of Virginia’s Green Operator, low sulfur fuels, and cargo handling programs; maintaining the 64 Express barge service between Hampton Roads and Richmond; constructing the Tide light rail; and promoting other renewable energy and energy efficiency programs.\nAccording to EPA regulations, if an area is in non-attainment (does not meet the primary standard) for any of the NAAQS, the area’s Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) must be tested for conformity with the State’s air quality plan. Because of Hampton Roads’ excellent air quality, VDOT and the HRTPO currently do not have to test for air quality conformity.

These days, unfortunately, Riverside is also known for its smog.\nRiverside sits in what’s known as a “smog belt.” The Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario area was found to be one of the most polluted regions based on year-round particle measurements when compared to other U.S. cities. Most of Riverside’s smog problems are the result of the prevailing westerlies that blow the smog from L.A. and particulates generated by Southern California’s huge number of vehicles, into the area, where they’re trapped by the San Bernardino Mountains to the east.\nDespite smog problems, the city has made efforts to reduce pollution by incorporating additional means of mass transit and equipping its entire fleet of buses with natural gas. Smog has decreased considerably over the past years as local municipalities and counties work with the South Coast Air Quality Management District to implement measures to improve regional air quality.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Here are the five winners.\nThe GPN is a global satellite mission that tracks rain and snow. You can read more about GPM here.\nHere’s what photographer Jason Weingart said about this picture:\nI have shot many storms from the same spot this photo was taken, and I almost drove by to get a different vantage point, but something told me to just stop at my spot. I jumped out of my car and ran down to the beach. To my surprise, there were still several beach-goers taking in the sight of this massive shelf cloud, as well as a few surfers in the water, trying to catch one last wave.\nHere’s what photographer Brian Johnson said about this photo:\nA large squall line moved through the area. The National Weather Service had warned about a large scale Derecho forming and moving through. This spawned a couple brief severe thunderstorms that dumped hail on rush hour traffic before the main line moved in. As the bigger storm moved into the Wichita area, reports were coming in of 70 mph winds and hail. There is an open farm field roughly two miles from my house that I shot lightning on the previous night. I sat there for about 20 minutes before this large squall line pushed through the clouds. I was hit with a pretty good gust front as it got closer, but as the winds increased, I decided to get to shelter.\nHere’s what photographer Meggan Wood said about this picture:\nThis photo was taken in a wash that runs through my neighborhood in Maricopa, AZ. The wash runs north/south through the neighborhood and the haboob (type of intense dust storm) was rolling in from the east … It was taken on 7/5/11 in the afternoon, not long before sunset. I saw the wall of dust coming and quickly drove to the wash to get a good wide-open view of the height of the dust looming over the houses. I barely had time to get back to my car before it hit and I was engulfed!\nHere’s what photographer Brian Allen said about this picture:\nUnfortunately, not a terribly cool story — I just happen to have an apartment with an amazing view of the city. The storm that blew through started off with an incredible amount of lightning and then dumped a significant amount of rain in a short amount of time — on the other side of the river. DC got drenched and Arlington didn’t see a drop.\nHere’s what photographer Grant Petty said about this picture:\nI was out on a farm with a photography club for the purpose of photographing farm life – animals, barns, etc. I saw this impressive thunderstorm building several miles to the east of where we were and ended up focusing on that while the others in the group continued to follow the goats and horses around…The storm cell dropped 1-3/4 inch hail near Sun Prairie. Fall streaks barely visible under the right side of the anvil may in fact be the falling hail.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Credit: NASA MODIS Rapid Response Team\nNASA's Terra satellite captured a visible image of Hurricane Emilia on July 9, 2012 at 1825 UTC / 2:25 p.m. EDT, and Emilia's eye was clearly visible in the image.\nEmilia exploded from a Category 2 hurricane to a Category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Scale since yesterday. Today, July 10 at 5 a.m. EDT, Emilia's maximum sustained winds were near 140 mph (220 kmh). By 11 a.m. EDT, Emilia's maximum sustained winds dropped to 130 mph (215 kmh),still holding to Category 4 hurricane status. Emilia was located about 685 miles (1100 km) south-southwest of the southern tip of Baja California. Emilia is moving at 10 mph (17 kmh) to the west-northwest.\nThe National Hurricane Center expects Emilia to continue weakening tonight through Thursday, July 12.\nBehind Emilia to the east, lies System 98E, a tropical low pressure area that appears to be developing. The National Hurricane Center gives System 98E a 40 percent chance for development over the next couple of days. That means that while Emilia is chasing Tropical Storm Daniel (west of Emilia), there may be another named storm chasing Emilia in the next couple of days.\nRob Gutro | EurekAlert!\nEnormous dome in central Andes driven by huge magma body beneath it\n25.10.2016 | University of California - Santa Cruz\nDeep down fracking wells, microbial communities thrive\n25.10.2016 | DOE/Pacific Northwest National Laboratory\nTerahertz excitation of selected crystal vibrations leads to an effective magnetic field that drives coherent spin motion\nControlling functional properties by light is one of the grand goals in modern condensed matter physics and materials science.

Flooding might occur on several streets in the inner city, the centre said.\nAdditional flights for delayed passengers\nVietnam Airlines passengers who experienced delays due to Nock-Ten were put on eight additional flights yesterday to ensure they reached their destinations, said the national carrier's spokesman Le Hoang Dung.\nAmong the eight flights, six were from and to Da Lat City and two were along the Ha Noi-LuangPrabang, Laos route.\nThe airlines also promised to support passengers affected by the storm with procedures related to booking, cancelling or changing tickets.\nDue to the storm, the airlines cancelled 30 flights on Saturday, including 26 domestic flights and two along the LuangPrabang and Siem Reap, Cambodia routes.\nThe centre also forecast another low pressure system developing in the northern East Sea, which is expected to grow in intensity into a tropical low.\nAccording to the Central Committee for Flood and Storm Control, Nock-Ten made landfall on the mainland at Thanh Hoa and Nghe An provinces at around 7pm on Saturday.\nThough it quickly weakened and moved towards the Lao border, the storm claimed at least three lives in Viet Nam and caused losses to local properties and farm crops.\nThe victims included Pham Xuan Tu, 68, from Anh Son District, Nghe An Province, who was electrocuted, Ca Van Bien, 60, from mountainous Son La Province who was struck by lightning and Tran Vu Tai, 13 from Nghe An Province's Yen Thanh District, who died due to drowning. The hardest hit province was Nghe An, where five houses and one schools had roofs blown away and over 3,500ha of rice and subsidiary crops were submerged.\nThe storm also damaged at least four fishing vessels, and caused one from Quang Ngai Province to sink near the Truong Sa (Spratlys) Archipelago. Twelve fishermen on board were expected to arrive home after being saved by Filipinos.\nTo cope with the storm, localities in the northern and central coastal provinces evacuated more than 44,000 people in the most vulnerable areas.\nBorder guards and local authorities also helped over 32,000 fishing ships with nearly 127,000 crew to anchor in safe areas.\nWork to remedy damages caused by the storm has been conducted in various localities across the country since yesterday. — VNS","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The most severe inundation in living memory occurred during Cyclone Isaac in 1983 where a storm surge of about 1.6m acted on top of a high spring tide. It was estimated that approximately 30% of Tongatapu inundated (not all of this would have been by seawater – flooding due to heavy rainfall would also have inundated many areas).\nThe most severe inundation during a tropical cyclone occurred during Isaac in March 1982. On Tongatapu, the passage of the cyclone coincided with a high spring tide, which was about 1.39 m above Cart Datum (1990). The worst affected areas were at Sopu, localized areas to the west and to the east of Manuka. The water level observed across the Vuna Road at Queen Salote wharf was about 0.5 to 0.75 m above the level of the road. All houses fronting the road were moved off their foundations a distance of about 10 m. Based on observed debris lines, the storm tide level reached approximately 3.05 m above Chart Datum resulting in a storm surge was estimated at 1.5 m. In Sopu, water depths were up to 1.5 m but more generally about 1 m in low-lying property behind the coast road in Nuku`alofa. Inundation extended around 300 m inland except at Sopu where it reached 1 km inland. On Ha`apai, the passage of the cyclone coincided with low tide, resulting in little inundation of coastal land.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Along this direction, the low pressure centers develop and move, bringing with them thunderstorms and hailstorms, especially in the summer.\nBeing open to the Adriatic Sea, the territory also receives Sirocco winds, that bring with them heavy rainfalls.\nThe Karst Plateau has its own special weather and climate: the masses of cold air coming from the east cross over the low Julian Alps, so this area is affected by winds coming from the region of the Danube.\nThe 'Bora', (north-easterly strong wind), reaches its maximum intensity in Trieste and its gulf, with gusts that sometimes exceed 150 km per hour.\nA significant change in the average temperature has occurred in the last 30/40 years in Friuli Venezia Giulia.In the past forty years (1961-2000), we have seen a strongly oscillating trend in average annual temperatures.In fact there has been an increase in temperature of 0.5 ° C in Trieste and at the same time a slight decrease (of 0.2 ° C) in Udine.\nThe rise in temperature is considered, for many experts, the climate change to be more concerned about.\nAnother important change was the rainfall level.There have been alternating periods of very wet and very dry weather.In 2010 there was an exceptional rainfall.We have also observed variations in the distribution of annual rainfall.\nIn last twenty years the Adriatic Sea has been characterised by low bora but frequent winds from the south, as the Scirocco.In the past century, the frequency of bora decreased to only 28 days / year.The periods of shorter duration were around 1925 and from the 1960s onwards.\nUntil 1960, the sea had a winter temperature lower than 7 ° C for about 30 days a year. Now the winter temperatures of the sea are lower than 8 °C but only for about 10 days a year.\nSo tropicalization has occured: that is the appearance of animal and plant species from warmer seas.\nIn the Adriatic Sea a case of mucilage happened.\nFrom 1910 to 2010, the rivers Isonzo and Tagliamento were marked by a reduction of the river flow.\nAlso the temperatures of the rivers changed but they are not related to environmental temperature\nFriuli Venezia Giulia is a snowy region due to the wind flow from the South and South-West.\nFrom 1980 until 2000 we had a significant drop in snowfall, however in our region there are still lot of avalanches, because of the very steep mountain slopes.\nNo, climate change has always existed and is part of the life cycle of the Earth.\nBut men surely have contributed to some aspects of the climate change.\nGiada Pandolfo, Marica Tridico, Elena Dabir","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Meantime, the anti-California weather around here. Lonnie's looking at this ever-changing and crazy forecast.\nLONNIE QUINN: Yeah, it's-- you know, crazy is a good word because we talked how the temperatures are going to be going every which way tomorrow. And I'll show you how warm it's going to end up getting, 50 degrees in some spots out there.\nCurrently, there's your picture. You can't see too well. We have some fog out there and overcast sky over Manhattan. 33 degrees on the thermometer right now.\nBut look at the temperatures around the area. This tells quite a story. I'll draw the line for you with my hand. From Greenwich to New York City to Edison, anywhere north of that, that's where you get the temperatures are cold enough right now for some frozen precipitation or some icing. And then you go south of that line, it's a little too warm.\nSo what's going to happen? With all the tempters be dropping overnight? Is a widespread icing event?\n[MAKES BUZZER SOUND] It's not. Watch this. It's going to remain cold enough north and west, but by the time you get to-- stop it right there, 7:30 in the morning. A lot of folks are making their morning commute at that hour. Everyone is above the freezing mark, even the ice box up around Poughkeepsie and Monticello. 34 degrees.\nNow at 34 degrees, even 35 for Newburgh, can you have some spots that are icy up there? 100% you can. So it's going to be really tough from about 12:00 midnight until 3:00. Let's just be cautious and say 11:00 tonight until 4:00 in the morning, that would be like your icing event.\nBut by 7:00 AM, this would all be rain for the area, and whatever is left could still have some icy spots below it, again, where you find those readings of 34 degrees, 35 degrees.\n47 in Brentwood at 7:30 in the morning. 51 for Belmar. It's not going to be an icing event for you. It's just not.\nAnd then, the temperatures will max out in New York City, upper 40s. Lower 50s along the Jersey Shore. Same thing for portions of Long Island. Even Monticello, Poughkeepsie, Newburgh, Sparta, you're right around the 40-degree mark.\nSo the real problematic time when the ice develops is late night tonight, during the overnight hours. But by the morning, when a lot of those morning drives are starting, it's turned to rain. But just remember there can still be some ice on those roadways out there.\nSo currently a couple of snowflakes out there north of the area.\nHere's the icing event that we're watching, which is going to move in. Kind of a quick-hitter, right. It's in, it's out. And if this low pressure system was to go offshore, we'd have a big snowstorm. It's not. Everything is telling us this sets up west of New York City.\nYou put that low west of New York City, gang, you are on the warm side of the storm and those temperatures balloon up to what I just showed you out there.\nOur next snow chance is back here, it's around the Pacific Northwest right now. That's going to follow sort of a similar path. But it does look like this has a better chance to make its way offshore. And if you get that low offshore, the Thursday event has a better chance to see snow in our area, and then it makes the transition over to some wintry mix.\nSo here's how we see things working out. For today, all right, very likely you're getting the precipitation, OK. Starts with that wintry mix but turns over to rain for everybody.\nWednesday, it's a lull in the action. Thursday, looks like you could be beginning to get some snow, but for the first part of Friday it would turn over to a wintry mix. And then Saturday, you're back to another lull in the action.\nSo my 7 Day Forecast comes together looking like this. 46 ends up being the high temperature. And this is something that KJ was sort of poking fun at earlier, saying, \"Boy, it's every which way. We're going, you know, from very low temperatures in the morning, 33, up to 46 all within the same day?\"\nThat's typically what I'd say if I showed you A Tuesday and a Friday temperature. This is in one day. Wednesday you're back to 32, so it's cold enough but you're getting a break from precipitation. Thursday it looks like we start off with some snow, going over to a mix. Friday's high temperature 42.\nRight now the weekend looks to be pretty quiet, with temperatures in the mid-30s. Guys, that is the 7 Day right there. So, again, the biggest concern is late night tonight into the overnight hours for anybody who has to be on the roads at that point in time, it's going to be slippery out there.\nMAURICE DUBOIS: You got it. All right Lonnie, thanks.\nLONNIE QUINN: OK.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The cyclone movement has calmed down now and is somewhere over the Telangana and adjacent areas of Marathwada and Vidharba region.\nHowever, the Indian Meteorological Department stated the chances of formation of a low pressure area in the Arabian Sea are quite high, and the cyclone is expected to re-emerge as Cyclone Shaheen once it hits the Arabian Sea. However, Which institutions are responsible for naming the cyclones as ‘Gulab’ and ‘Shaheen’? This article aims to explain the procedure behind naming the cyclones.\nPakistan proposed the name ‘Gulab’ even before its creation. The countries that surround an ocean get to name the cyclones emerging in their ocean. For example, Countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Yemen, UAE, and others surround the Indian Ocean’s basin, and therefore, they get to name the cyclones originating in the Indian Ocean. All the 13 countries that surround the Indian Ocean basin have submitted 13 names individually, making it a total of 169 names. The World Meteorological Organisation has approved the list and selects the name one by one from the list.\nThe history of naming cyclones dates back to the early 19th Century when people used the names of the places the cyclone hit, the saint’s name on whose day the cyclone occurred, or simply the year it occurred to name the cyclone.\nIn the mid 20th Century, western meteorologists began naming cyclones using some common women names to distinguish systems as there were multiple systems over a particular ocean basin. Fortunately, this system came to an end by 2000 after several protests. In 1997, Hong Kong proposed using local names for regional cyclones rather than western names.\nIn 2000, the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) agreed to use a list of names suggested by the countries surrounding the Indian Ocean basin. India Meteorological Department (IMD) initiated naming of the North Indian Ocean storm with Cyclone Onil in September 2004.\nThere are six regional specialised meteorological centres (RSMCs) and five regional Tropical Cyclone Warning Centres (TCWCs) in the world. RSMC, New Delhi, is responsible for naming cyclones over the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea based on the suggested names from all these countries.\nOut of several criteria for naming cyclones, some of the important ones are: names should be politically and culturally neutral, should not be rude. The names should be short, easy to pronounce.\nThe maximum permissible length of the cyclone names is eight letters.\nWhen List 1 gets completed, the naming resumes from List 2 and so on. Cyclone Gulab is the seventh name to get used from the first list.\nAs per the WMO guidelines, if a cyclone is particularly deadly or costly, the name is retired and never used again for other cyclones.\nHurricane and cyclone mean the same thing, but the emerging low pressure area gets a different name based on areas they occur.\nAll the countries surrounding their respective ocean basin have submitted the names to WMO.\nWMO/ESCAP members-List 1\nCountries - Name\nBangladesh - Nisarga\nIndia - Gati\nIran - Nivar\nMaldives - Burevi\nMyanmar - Tauktae\nOman - Yaas\nPakistan - Gulab\nQatar - Shaheen\nSaudi Arabia - Jawad\nSri Lanka - Asani\nThailand - Sitang\nUnited Arab Emirates - Mandous\nYemen - Mocha","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It accelerated to a light jog as it battered the Pensacola and Mobile, Alabama, metropolitan areas encompassing nearly 1 million people.\nIt cast boats onto land or sank them at the dock, flattened palm trees, peeled away roofs, blew down signs and knocked out power to more than a 540,000 homes and businesses. A replica of Christopher Columbus’ ship the Nina that had been docked at the Pensacola waterfront was missing, police said.\nSally tore loose a barge-mounted construction crane, which then smashed into the new Three Mile Bridge over Pensacola Bay, causing a section of the year-old span to collapse, authorities said. The storm also ripped away a large section of a fishing pier at Alabama’s Gulf State Park on the very day a ribbon-cutting had been scheduled following a $2.4 million renovation.\nBy the afternoon, authorities in Escambia County, which includes Pensacola, said at least 377 people had been rescued from flooded areas. More than 40 people trapped by high water were brought to safety within a single hour, including a family of four found in a tree, Sheriff David Morgan said.\nAuthorities in Pensacola, where Sally turned some streets into white-capped rivers for a time, said 200 National Guard members would arrive today to help. Curfews were announced in Escambia County and in some coastal Alabama towns.\nBy early afternoon, Sally had weakened into a tropical storm, with winds down to 70 mph. Showers still fell in parts of the stricken area Wednesday evening, and the storm was expected to generate heavy rain farther inland today as it moved over Alabama and into Georgia. For much of the day, it moved at just 5 mph, concentrating the rainfall.\nMorgan estimated thousands will need to flee rising waters in the coming days. Escambia officials urged residents to rely on text messages for contacting family and friends to keep cellphone service open for 911 calls.\n“There are entire communities that we’re going to have to evacuate,” the sheriff said. “It’s going to be a tremendous operation over the next several days.”\nWest of Pensacola, power poles leaned halfway over in Perdido Key, Florida, as Joe Mirable arrived at his real estate business to find the two-story building shattered. Digging through the ruins, Mirable pointed out a binder labeled “Hurricane Action Plan.”\n“I think the professionals got this one wrong,” he said before the wind blew away his hat.\nMore than 2 feet of rain was recorded near Naval Air Station Pensacola, and nearly 3 feet of water covered streets in downtown Pensacola, the National Weather Service reported.\n“It’s not common that you start measuring rainfall in feet,” said forecaster David Eversole.\nSally was the second hurricane to hit the Gulf Coast in less than three weeks and the latest blow in one of the busiest hurricane seasons ever. Forecasters have nearly run through the alphabet of storm names with 2 1/2 months still to go. At the start of the week, Sally was one of a record-tying five storms churning simultaneously in the Atlantic basin.\nLike the wildfires raging on the West Coast, the onslaught of hurricanes has focused attention on climate change, which scientists say is causing slower, rainier, more powerful and more destructive storms.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Although the peak is expected to fall on July 28, this is a long, slow shower, worth watching for at least a week after the peak. Don’t expect to see a lot of meteors though. Even at its peak there are only 10 – 20 meteors per hour (or about 5 minutes between meteors.) The radiant is highest at around 3 AM this time of year, so that would be the best time to observe if it weren’t for the waning Moon in the last week of July. Going out around 1:30 – 2:30 on the 28th gives a good combination of reasonably high radiant and a low Moon.\nWhile the Perseids don’t peak until August 11 or 12, you should already be able to spot a few. The real show should be the early morning of August 12, and continue through the morning of the 13th and maybe the morning of the 14th. Some experts think this could be a spectacular year, with rates of 200 per hour at the peak (that’s about 3 meteors per minute!) Better still, a waxing moon means dark skies most of the early morning hours. The best time to view will be around 3 – 5AM, when the Moon has set, Perseus is high, and twilight hasn’t really started yet. Here is a map for 4:30 AM on August 11 with both radiants marked.\nMeteor Shower January 4, 2016Posted by aquillam in Astronomy, MichiganAstro, Urban Observing.\nTags: comet, meteor shower, observing, urban_observing\nadd a comment\nI’ve come to the conclusion that I will not be able to get the January Urban Observing post written. So instead, here are some hopefully timely and very short posts.\nDid Saturday feel warmer to you? That was the day the Earth was closest to the Sun. Of course the seasons are caused by the tilt of Earth’s axis, not its distance from the sun. The distance from the sun affects how fast the Earth moves and therefore how many days each season has. The closer to the sun, the faster the planet moves, so in the Northern Hemisphere, we have fewer days of winter than summer.\nThe Quadrantids peaked this morning (sorry…). However, it’s active until January 10, with rates of about 25 per hour, so it’s still worth looking if it’s clear tomorrow morning. And the planet line up with a comet continues.\nSpeaking of the comet, you’ll need binoculars or a camera for comet Catalina, but it is between Arcturus and the Big Dipper, so it should be easy to find if it’s bright enough for you skies. Here’s a map for 3 AM on January 6, 2016.\nOrionid Meteor Shower October 21, 2015Posted by aquillam in Astronomy, MichiganAstro.\nTags: meteor shower, MichiganAstro\nadd a comment\nIf it’s clear where you are, you might want to get up an hour or two early for the Orionid meteor shower. The peak is today / tomorrow (sorry I’m a little late for today), but it should be worth watching for a couple more days. Especially with the morning planets! Clear, dark skies are important for meteor watching, so you’ll need to get away from city lights.\nHere in SE Michigan, the weather predictions make Friday morning look good. The Moon sets at about 3 AM, by which time Orion will be well up. However, if you wait until 5AM, you’ll get your chance to see Venus, Jupiter, and Mars. Mercury rises around 7AM, but by then twilight will have begun, which means it’s not as good for watching for meteors. The best hour is probably 5:30 to 6:30 AM.\nFor more information, (especially if you’re not in southeast Michigan) check out the story from Earth-Sky.\nOctober 2015 Urban Observing October 8, 2015Posted by aquillam in MichiganAstro, Urban Observing.\nTags: amateur_astronomy, Jupiter, Mars, Mercury, meteor shower, Moon, Saturn, Uranus, urban observing, Venus\nadd a comment\nOctober begins the most active time of year for meteor showers. While few individual showers are as active as August’s Perseids, several overlapping showers make fall a great time to bundle up and get outside.\nThe showers actually started at the end of September with the southern Taurids. This is a low activity shower, so you’ll barely notice it’s active. However, it’s especially good for southern sky watchers, and a lot of its meteors are fireballs. It doesn’t have a district peak, but remains active in to early November.\nNext up are the Orionids. They are active early October to mid November, with a peak on October 21-22. Most years this is a moderately active shower with about 20 meteors per hour. In some years it’s very active, with rates comproble to the Perseids, but at this time we don’t know how to predict if it’s an average or better than average year. Check the AMS weekly blog for the most current predictions.\nFinally the Northern Taurids are a close cousin to the Southern Taurids. Like the Southern Taurids, this is an extended shower with a low rate but a high number of fireballs. It is active from mid October to early December.\nIf you prefer to listen to meteor showers, check out the Draconids. Because of its position in the sky, the best time to observe these is actually late afternoon and early evening. That makes this a great shower to try out the radio observation techniques.\nNew on October 13\nFull October 26 – this is the last “super moon” of the year.\nMorning planet watchers are in for several treats this month. Even if you aren’t normally in early riser, you may want to get up on October 28 for a rare three planet conjunction. Mars, Venus, and Jupiter will all be within 1° of each other on that morning.\nMercury reaches greatest Western Elongation on October 16, so the second and third week in October should be a great time to observe Mercury in the morning.\nVenus reaches greatest western elongation on October 26. It will be a good morning object for the rest of the year. However, it’s approaching a new Venus, so although it’s getting closer to us, it’s actually getting dimmer as well. It makes a tight group with Regulus and the Moon on October 8.\nMars is overshadowed by the other brilliant morning planets. A thin crescent Moon passes it on October 9. It is less than half a degree from Jupiter on the 17.\nJupiter has fully emerged into the morning skies by the beginning of the month. If it weren’t for Venus, it would be the jewel of the morning skies. Look for it in conjunction with Venus on the 26th.\nSaturn quickly disappears into the evening twilight. Look for it with a crescent Moon at sunset on October 15 & 16.\nIf you have a telescope, October will be a great time to look for Uranus. It reaches opposition on October 11. If you can get away from the urban lights, you might even be able to catch it naked eye.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has predicted a near-normal season, but that still means there may be one or more severe storms with disastrous effects.\nThe first line of defense in protecting your people and assets is a preparedness plan that takes into account the five hurricane categories. But first, a quick history lesson:\nIn the 1970s, Miami engineer Herbert Saffir teamed up with Robert Simpson, the director of the National Hurricane Center (NHC). Their mission: develop a simple scale to measure hurricane intensity and the potential damage storms of varying strength could cause to residential and business structures.\nThe result is the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, which assigns a category level to storms based on their sustained wind speeds. The scale ranks every hurricane from 1 to 5, with Category 5 being the most intense—a storm of this magnitude will leave behind catastrophic damage in its wake.\nBut what impact can a business expect from a Category 2 storm versus a Category 4? And how should management adjust messaging to employees based on the severity of any given hurricane? Having an understanding of a storm’s intensity is crucial to safeguarding your business and providing your people with relevant hurricane communications and potentially lifesaving information. Here’s what you need to know.\nWhat Damage Do Hurricanes Cause?\nThe effects of a hurricane on commercial and residential properties can include:\n- Structural damage like lost shingles, roofing, and siding damage; shattered windows; and even building destruction due to wind, storm surge, flooding, and debris\n- Operational disruptions like power outages, closed roadways, and communication issues\n- Financial loss as a result of extended interruptions to business continuity\n- Injury or loss of life\nHurricane Categories and Potential Damage\nHurricanes—and the strong tropical storms leading up to them—are broken down into categories based on their sustained wind speeds, using the Saffir-Simpson hurricane scale, and the potential property damage each category can unleash. These classifications serve as a guide to help businesses brace for impact in the event of a storm.\nSince each hurricane category poses different levels of potential damage, specific messaging is required in each case to best prepare your employees. Using a mass notification system can help you effectively reach your entire workforce with relevant messaging in a timely manner. We’ve included recommendations for how to inform your teams in the event of each hurricane category.\nTropical depression and tropical storm events\nBefore a storm officially becomes a hurricane, it starts off as a tropical depression in the Atlantic Ocean, the tropics, or the subtropics. A tropical depression can quickly morph into a tropical storm with a closed circulation and heavy rains that swirl in bands.\nMinor damage, but extreme flooding can occur\nWhile the damage resulting from a tropical storm is typically minor, it is still necessary to exercise caution. If a tropical storm moves slowly over heavily populated zones like business or residential areas for an extended period of time, flooding can quickly lead to major damage and loss of life.\nIn fact, this exact scenario took place when Tropical Storm Allison hovered over southeast Texas in June of 2001. The storm stalled over Houston, dumping torrential rainfall and ultimately causing more than $8.5 billion in damage. While not as fierce as a hurricane, every tropical storm should be viewed as a potential crisis.\nTropical depression/storm emergency communications\nProactively warn employees about an incoming tropical storm to raise awareness and warn against possible flooding and office closures.\nCategory 1 hurricane\nIf a tropical storm intensifies, it can reach wind gusts that amount to an official hurricane classification. With a Category 1 hurricane, winds will reach 74–95 MPH and storm surge can reach up to 5 feet.\nSome damage will occur\nAlthough Category 1 is the weakest level hurricane, it can still wreak havoc on any area in its path. Even well-constructed frame homes and buildings could suffer roof and structural damage. Tree branches are likely to snap, and shallow-rooted trees could be uprooted. Businesses can expect power outages due to downed power lines and damage to poles.\nCategory 1 hurricane emergency communications\nWarn your people about the incoming hurricane to raise awareness. Let them know of possible office closures and follow up with a status check-in to ensure safety or additional needs.\nCategory 2 hurricane\nAnyone in the path of a Category 2 storm can expect to see winds reaching 110 MPH and storm surge up to 8 feet.\nModerate-to-extensive damage will occur\nThese intensifying storms can cause a significant hit to business continuity. Major roof damage is a possibility. Because of fallen trees and debris, road closures may hinder employees and first responders from navigating roadways. Near-total power loss can be expected, often lasting several days to weeks.\nThis level of hurricane is also life-threatening due to potential flooding, storm surge if your business is coastal, and flying debris.\nCategory 2 hurricane emergency communications\nMake your people aware of impending danger and instructions to either stay indoors or evacuate (based on guidance from weather specialists).\nCategory 3 hurricane\nA Category 3 storm is considered a major hurricane that will result in significant damage. Very dangerous winds will reach up to 130 MPH and storm surge can hit 12 feet.\nDevastating damage will occur\nIf you’re in the path of a Category 3 hurricane, you will see extensive and potentially deadly damage. This storm level will uproot trees, completely destroy roofs, and render large areas without power for anywhere from days to weeks.\nHurricane Sandy was a Category 3 at its peak. It ended up taking the lives of 233 people across the Caribbean, the United States, and Canada. The storm caused a total of $68.7 billion in damage — the second-costliest hurricane to hit the U.S. at the time.\nCategory 3 hurricane emergency communications\nAlert your employees early. Outline the advice of weather specialists (likely instructions to either evacuate or stay indoors), as well as advice to stock up on water and supplies necessary to cope without power for an extended period of time.\nCategory 4 hurricane\nPut simply, if your business or residence is in the path of a Category 4 hurricane — be alarmed. These mega-storms have winds up to 155 MPF and storm surge reaching 18 feet. They are deadly, costly, and will wreak havoc on any region they move through.\nCatastrophic damage will occur\nCategory 4 hurricanes can not only dislodge entire roofs but also topple the walls of structures, cause catastrophic flooding, and result in widespread power outages that can last months.\nImpacted areas could be uninhabitable for the foreseeable future. Hurricane Harvey was a Category 4 storm when it first made landfall on San José Island, Texas. Although the storm had weakened by the time it hit Houston, it stalled over the heavily populated metro area for two days producing severe flooding. It ended up causing $125 billion in damage, tying Hurricane Katrina as the costliest hurricane on record. Hurricane Ian made landfall in Southwest Florida as a Category 4 storm in 2022. It caused an estimated $113 billion in total U.S. damage, and it is the costliest storm in Florida’s history.\nCategory 4 hurricane emergency communications\nAct fast. If any of your employees are in the path of a Category 4 hurricane, their safety should be your immediate priority. Inform your people in the event of an evacuation, which could be mandatory depending on how vulnerable the area is.\nMake use of a central hub or Event Page (suitable for any hurricane level), which an emergency notification solution should provide. These pages serve as a valuable resource during an unfolding event where a business can post disaster updates, upload videos/photos, and communicate a recovery plan.\nCategory 5 hurricane\nIf a business or residence is in the path of a Category 5 hurricane, a mandatory evacuation will likely be issued. Currently the highest level a hurricane can be ranked, a Category 5 can completely destroy homes and even well-built industrial buildings in its path.\nCatastrophic damage will occur\nCoastal regions will see most structures essentially leveled or damaged beyond repair. Loss of life will likely be significant and far-reaching due to extreme winds, storm surge, catastrophic flooding, flying debris, and structural failure.\nHurricane Andrew — which devastated South Florida in late August 1992 — made landfall as a Category 5 storm. Andrew ended up leaving an estimated 250,000 homeless and caused a total of $27.4 billion in damage.\nWhile advance preparation is critical for all hurricanes, The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) recommends the following for a storm of this magnitude:\n- Build a disaster supply kit: Plan as if you’re going to be cut off from resources for an extended period of time.\n- Develop an emergency response plan: These “protective actions for life safety” include running drills, mapping out evacuation routes, and conducting risk assessments.\n- Invest in a reliable emergency notification system: The Department of Homeland Security reminds people that prompt notification can save lives.\nCategory 5 hurricane emergency communications\nBe explicit. Inform staff to begin planning for evacuation immediately. Brace for an extended office closure and major operational disruptions. Protecting your people is imperative for your organization to fulfill its duty of care.\nHaving a reliable, two-way emergency communication system in place will allow you to keep tabs on your employees before, during, and after the storm.\nA central hub or “Event Page” is also crucial to keeping your people safe and providing peace of mind throughout any critical event. Recovery will likely be long and costly. But the more prepared everyone is, the smoother the process will be.\nStay Safe During a Hurricane With Effective Communication\nWhether your business is in the path of a small tropical storm or a Category 5 hurricane, you need a quick and easy way to keep your people safe, informed, and connected.\nYou also need a way to monitor approaching storms as they evolve. Hurricane categories are not static predictions. Forecasters and meteorologists do their best to predict how storms are going to progress, but a storm’s outlook can change in a matter of hours. Using a threat monitoring system will ensure that you stay on top of any new developments in approaching storms as they occur.\nAlertMedia is the leader in emergency mass notifications and local threat monitoring. AlertMedia combines up-to-the-minute threat monitoring with two-way messaging, an intuitive user interface, and 24/7 customer support — so you can rest easy knowing you’re prepared if a storm is heading your way.\nAs a hurricane approaches, you won’t have a minute to spare. Having pre-set messaging in place will alleviate stress and ultimately help protect your people. AlertMedia’s hurricane templates provide businesses with effective messaging across devices and through all phases of a storm.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

All wiring in the house may be electrically charged and hazardous. Residents should have a professional technician check their home for damages before turning on the power.\nMake sure potentially combustible liquids like paint thinner, lighter fluid or gasoline haven’t spilled within or near your home. Keep combustible liquids away from electrical or alternative heat sources as to not start a fire.\nAll smoke alarms in the home should be tested monthly and batteries should be replaced yearly. Some smoke alarms are dependent on your home’s electrical service and may go out when power is turned off.\nMake sure the fire hydrant near your home is cleared of debris so the fire department can assess it easily in the event of a fire.\nArizona has seen its fair share of severe weather.

The video was recorded by the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), a sun-watching satellite that has transmitted a series of stunning photos of solar flares in recent months. The new video shows darker, cooler plasma shifting back and forth above the sun's surface over the span of nearly 30 hours stretching from Feb. 7 to Feb. 8. And the giant tornado may be as large as the Earth itself, with gusts of up to 300,000 mph, explained Terry Kucera, deputy SOHO project scientist and a solar physicist with NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. \"It's about 15,000 degrees Fahrenheit -- relatively cool,\" Kucera told FoxNews.com. After all, the sun's corona is a whopping 2 million degrees, she explained. Such tornadoes (Kucera classed it a \"solar prominence\") have been known of for decades; the European Space Agency's SOHO spacecraft captured evidence of them as early as 1996, mainly near the Sun's north and south poles at the time. And though they resemble their cousins here on Earth, they're created entirely differently, Kucera said -- through magnetism, not pressure and temperature fluctuations. \"Those motions you see, it's all just moving along the magnetic field somehow -- but we're still looking to understand what's happening with these things,\" Kucera said. The storm was created by competing magnetic forces, which pull the charged magnetic particles on the sun back and forth, creating a spinning mass of plasma that tracks along strands of magnetic field lines, NASA explained. The spinning top of the tornado is mesmerizing, but Kucera noted the span of the prominence as well. The long, ribbon shapes could span hundreds of thousands of miles, she said. \"In total length, this could be dozens of Earths -- quite large,\" she said. Such detailed, high-resolution recordings of the immense tornadoes was not possible until the launch of SDO. The satellite has several cameras on board that capture solar activity in different wavelengths and frequencies, all in the name of science. \"Each wavelength of light tells us something different,\" she said.

We are still gathering data and the Space Weather Forecast Lab will be having updates available soon. Credit: NASA SDO\nA recent flurry of eruptions on the sun did more than spark pretty auroras around the poles. NASA-funded researchers say the solar storms of March 8th through 10th dumped enough energy in Earth's upper atmosphere to power every residence in New York City for two years. \"This was the biggest dose of heat we've received from a solar storm since 2005,\" says Martin Mlynczak of NASA Langley Research Center. \"It was a big event, and shows how solar activity can directly affect our planet.\" Mlynczak is the associate principal investigator for the SABER instrument onboard NASA's TIMED satellite. SABER monitors infrared emissions from Earth's upper atmosphere, in particular from carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitric oxide (NO), two substances that play a key role in the energy balance of air hundreds of km above our planet's surface. \"Carbon dioxide and nitric oxide are natural thermostats,\" explains James Russell of Hampton University, SABER's principal investigator. \"When the upper atmosphere (or 'thermosphere') heats up, these molecules try as hard as they can to shed that heat back into space.\" That's what happened on March 8th when a coronal mass ejection (CME) propelled in our direction by an X5-class solar flare hit Earth's magnetic field. (On the \"Richter Scale of Solar Flares,\" X-class flares are the most powerful kind.) Energetic particles rained down on the upper atmosphere, depositing their energy where they hit. The action produced spectacular auroras around the poles and significant1 upper atmospheric heating all around the globe. \"The thermosphere lit up like a Christmas tree,\" says Russell. \"It began to glow intensely at infrared wavelengths as the thermostat effect kicked in.\" For the three day period, March 8th through 10th, the thermosphere absorbed 26 billion kWh of energy. Infrared radiation from CO2 and NO, the two most efficient coolants in the thermosphere, re-radiated 95% of that total back into space. In human terms, this is a lot of energy. According to the New York City mayor's office, an average NY household consumes just under 4700 kWh annually. This means the geomagnetic storm dumped enough energy into the atmosphere to power every home in the Big Apple for two years. \"Unfortunately, there's no practical way to harness this kind of energy,\" says Mlynczak. \"It's so diffuse and out of reach high above Earth's surface. Plus, the majority of it has been sent back into space by the action of CO2 and NO.\" During the heating impulse, the thermosphere puffed up like a marshmallow held over a campfire, temporarily increasing the drag on low-orbiting satellites. This is both good and bad. On the one hand, extra drag helps clear space junk out of Earth orbit. On the other hand, it decreases the lifetime of useful satellites by bringing them closer to the day of re-entry. The storm is over now, but Russell and Mlynczak expect more to come. \"We're just emerging from a deep solar minimum,\" says Russell. \"The solar cycle is gaining strength with a maximum expected in 2013.\" More sunspots flinging more CMEs toward Earth adds up to more opportunities for SABER to study the heating effect of solar storms. \"This is a new frontier in the sun-Earth connection,\" says Mlynczak, and the data we're collecting are unprecedented.\" Credit: NASA Science\nLately, the International Space Station has been flying through geomagnetic storms, giving astronauts an close-up view of the aurora borealis just outside their windows. These videos were taken by the crew of Expedition 30 on board the International Space Station. First, get an introduction into the beauty of aurorae. 1st Segment: The sequence of shots was taken March 3, 2012 from 17:59:48 to 18:16:25 GMT, on a pass from eastern Kenya, near the Indian Ocean, to the South Indian Ocean, east of the Kerguelen Islands. This video begins as the ISS travels southeast from eastern Africa over the Arabian Sea and the Indian Ocean. The first land we see is that of the Mauritius and Reunion Islands east of Madagascar. The pass continues over the Indian Ocean, where there are heavy clouds blocking the view of the water. Finally, the Aurora Australis begins to appear, as well as a faded view of the Milky Way. 2nd Segment: The sequence of shots was taken March 4, 2012 from 17:19:17 to 17:27:10 GMT, on a pass over the South Indian Ocean. This video again focuses on the Aurora Australis as the ISS passes over the South Indian Ocean, from northeast of the Kerugelen Islands to south of Australia. The streaks of the aurora are very visible and active in this video, as the ISS passes right over the green lights. 3rd Segment: The sequence of shots was taken March 10, 2012 from 14:49:58 to 15:05:37 GMT, on a pass from the South Indian Ocean to southeast New Zealand. This video mainly focuses on the Aurora Australis over the Southern Hemisphere. As the ISS traveled southeast and then northeast, the crew captured the bands of the Aurora Australis as the Milky Way made an appearance in the star field.

Part of the study will be to conduct field tests to determine the efficiencies of mesh-based devices used worldwide to collect water as a function of different environmental conditions.\nAccording to the National Weather Service, advection fog forms as warmer, moist air moves over cold ground. The air is cooled to saturation by the cold from the ground below cooling the air above. Unlike the tule fog of the Central Valley, which is a type of radiation fog, advection fog may form under cloudy skies and with moderate to strong winds.\nFernandez uses standard meteorological data like wind speed, barometric pressure and humidity along with fog collectors made out of mesh for his studies. He said he’s found patterns in the levels of fog that may go undetected without his measurements.\n“You wake up in the morning and say, ‘There was fog last night.’ But there were probably a couple of peaks,” he said. “It actually peaks kind of early in the night and then it dips and then it peaks again.”\nThe grant will fund new devices that will help to measure and increase the amount of water collected from fog capture. Fog collection can produce potable water for drinking or irrigation. This can be useful to the Defense Department, especially in remote, foggy regions or areas that lack access to water. Fernandez said there are times he can get several liters of water from a square meter of mesh but it’s not going to solve the Monterey Peninsula’s water issues.\n“It would be small-scale or a small part of the solution at best,” he said. “It’s great if you want to water your garden, you may get a few liters here and there,” but it’s not going to meet the community’s water needs.\nWith the grant, Fernandez and the university will purchase several top-of-the-line instruments, including two FM-120 fog droplet measurement devices. There are only 106 of the devices worldwide and Fernandez says they provide an unprecedented measurement of fog characteristics that will bring the research into fog to an entirely new level.\nThe research aims to expand knowledge about the generation and dissipation of fog, which can be critically important for airports and locations where fog density can adversely affect transportation and other activities.\n“The presence of fog affects visibility and can impact Army operations,” said Julia Barzyk, the program manager for Earth Materials and Processes at the Army Research Office, in a press release. “We are excited that this award will enable the science needed to mitigate those effects as well as provide opportunities to develop the next generation of scientists.”\nAccording to CSUMB, Fernandez has been involved in fog water collection since 2005. His work has integrated over 50 undergraduate students and two graduate students since he began, and his group has deployed research-grade standard fog collectors at over 25 sites throughout California. He has presented at dozens of conferences and other public presentations and has authored or co-authored 10 different conference or journal papers related to the topic of fog water collection.\nFernandez said microclimates on the Central Coast bring vastly different levels of fog to nearby areas. While it may be clear in Monterey, dense fog may be engulfing Seaside or Marina.\n“Those tend to be recurrent, but those aren’t necessarily predicted,” he said. “They’ll just say ‘patchy fog’ on the meteorology report.”\nWith his studies, Fernandez hopes to learn more about the effects of that fog on the regional ecosystems. He said he’s also found that not all fog is the same. Some days he sees fog and his collectors gather little water while other days they get a lot more — and he’s interested in learning why.\n“There’s more than meets the eye to fog,” he said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Oops! Never mind. It turns out that after that claim was made, NASA scientists rather sheepishly admitted that there was only a 38% percent chance that was true.\nWell, at least the mainstream media waited until the end of 2014 to make that silly claim but now they just can't wait because according to them, 2015 WILL BE THE HOTTEST YEAR ON RECORD. The MSM started hyping this \"fact\" almost out of the starting gate long before most of the stats even existed. Way back on April 15, Slate was proclaiming that 2015 Is Shaping Up to Be The Hottest Year on Record:\nThe first three months of 2015 were the warmest start to any year on record, according to new data released from NASA on Wednesday.\nAll major global temperature-tracking agencies have ranked January, February, and March 2015 as among the warmest three months on record, respectively. Collectively, those numbers mean 2015 has been record hot so far. What’s more, the last 12 months (from April 2014 to March 2015) was the warmest 12-month period on record, according to the NASA data. The previous warmest 12-month period ended just last month, so don’t write this one down in your diary in ink.\nYeah, Slate, as we saw actually only a 38% chance that was true which means 62% chance that it was not true but don't let that stop you from celebrating a new hottest year on record.\nSo what is the data that allows Slate and other sources to make this claim? It is data variances so tiny that it is actually half the margin of error so data showing an increase in temperature could almost as easily be showing a decrease in temperature. Tom Harris of the Washington Times explains:\nThe U.S. government is at it again, hyping meaningless records in a parameter that does not exist in order to frighten us about something that doesn’t matter.\nNASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced this week that according to their calculations, July 2015 was the hottest month since instrumental records began in 1880. NOAA says that the record was set by eight one-hundredths of a degree Celsius over that set in July 1998. NASA calculates that July 2015 beat what they assert was the previous warmest month (July 2011) by two one-hundredths of a degree.\nBut government spokespeople rarely mention the inconvenient fact that these records are being set by less than the uncertainty in the statistics. NOAA claims an uncertainty of 14 one-hundredths of a degree in its temperature averages, or near twice the amount by which they say the record was set. NASA says that their data is typically accurate to one tenth of a degree, five times the amount by which their new record was set.\nSo, the new temperature records are meaningless. Neither agency knows whether a record was set.\nSuch misrepresentations are now commonplace in NOAA and NASA announcements. They are regularly proclaiming monthly and yearly records set by less than the uncertainties in the measurements. Scientists within the agencies know that this is dishonest.\nJust as dishonest as proclaiming that George Pataki is surging in the presidential primary polls if the stats were to show him increasing from .1 to .2 percent with a margin of error of 3 percent. The change is so slight compared to that margin of error that Pataki could just as easily be static or declining in the polls. Therefore no media outlet would dare to turn itself into a laughingstock by making the claim of a Pataki surge based on those stats but that is what many in the media are doing with the slight temperature data variations with a much greater margin of error.\nSo what is the motive for such an onslaught of \"Hottest Year on Record\" claims? Back in the 90s, the liberals and their MSM allies went all in with Global Warming. Their timing was poor because soon after all the warnings, temperatures did not increase. To explain this they claimed there was a \"pause\" which indicated it was just a temporary condition. In addition, they dropped the term \"Global Warming\" which made them subject to mockery over the fact that the increased temperatures they were warning about didn't happen and replaced it with \"Climate Change.\" The latter term was much safer because climate is always changing.\nHowever, since the public seemed as uninterested in warnings about climate change as they were about global warming, the MSM came up with a new shtick: boldly proclaim \"hottest year on record\" based on laughably meaningless data. Therefore we are now seeing this theme being hyped with furious frequency by the MSM. Here is an example of some entertaining \"hottest year\" hype care of CNN:\nJuly saw the highest average temperatures since record-keeping began -- globally, not just in the United States -- the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reported Thursday.\nGlobally, the first seven months of the year also had all-time highs. The latest global temperature data make it likely that 2015 will be the hottest year on record, the agency said.\nNOAA's findings follow reports by NASA and the Japan Meteorological Agency, which reached the same conclusion using their own data.\n...Data from NOAA dates back to 1880, but it is possible that July was the hottest month in at least 4,000 years. Climate research suggests these are the hottest temperatures the Earth has seen since the Bronze Age.\nThe prediction for 2015 becoming the hottest year on record is based on observed temperatures so far, plus the coming El Niño event.\nOf course, 2015 will be the \"hottest year on record\" until a few months from now when it will be proclaimed that \"George Pataki is Surging in the Polls!\"\nOops! I mean \"2016 Is the Hottest Year on Record!\"\n...Or at least until NASA scientists later admit that there is only a 38% chance this is true.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

First responders fought quickly deteriorating conditions to get to these in trouble and tens of thousands lost power. The state was at a standstill.\nAn unheard of 40 inches of snow fell in Hamden and much of Connecticut saw two feet of snow, forecasters said at the time. Though it may not hold the legend of the Blizzard of ‘78, the Blizzard of 2013 rivaled its magnitude. It was so strong, some likened it to the historic blizzard in 1888, which set previously untouched records.\nThe storm started on a Friday and its ferocity grew fast. The warnings from forecasters were stark: “This is really serious. This is a storm that can cripple all of southern New England,” Fox 61 meteorologist Joe Furey told the Courant.\nBy nightfall, even the most seasoned snow removal crews could not keep up.\n\"We've been fighting the good fight, but Mother Nature is getting the upper hand right now,\" a Department of Transportation spokesman said as the storm intensified the night of Feb. 8. Snow was falling at a pace of 2 inches per hour by that point.\nAt its peak, the storm would drop snow at an extraordinary rate of 4 to 5 inches an hour. It was so heavy, the roofs of some buildings were collapsing.\n\"It's just a mess all across the state… “ Vance said. \"We can't get to people. We're stuck ourselves. We're doing what we can.\"\nAt least five people died, some of whom could not be reached by ambulances or police, themselves stopped by the crippling snow.\nGov. Dannel P. Malloy closed the highways, a rare move saved for the only strongest snow storms. As such, traffic was light, then Vance said. The people of Connecticut were stuck at home.\nStill some ventured out, stir crazy and adventurous. They were met with chest-deep snow. Gas station owners and corner store employees opened doors. In New Haven's East Rock neighborhood, slammed by snow, Lulu’s Cafe became a refuge for the weary.\n\"I know one thing, we're percolating. Lulu's is always a neighborhood hub, especially when it snows,\" owner Lulu deCarrone told the Courant.\nLike in past blizzards, the headlines were big and bold for those who got the paper during the storm. By the time the “paralyzing” snow stopped on Sunday, the headline read: “HISTORIC SNOW BATTERS STATE.”\n\"This is going to go down in the history books as one of the biggest,\" FOX CT meteorologist Joe Furey said of the storm at the time.\nThat statement proved true, the 13.4 inches that fell in Hartford on Feb. 8, 2013 and the the total snow depth on Feb. 9, 2013 of 22 inches remain records in the National Weather Service almanac. Hamdenites still have not seen 40 inches of snow, which is a welcome reality, one could assume.\nOverwhelmed by the sheer amount, some officials said they did not even know where to put the snow. The DOT had a cohort of front loaders digging through feet of snow to clear the state’s major arteries.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The city saw 23 inches of snow in February alone. Crews have been removing the large snow piles left from plows and have been depositing the snow in dumpsters.\n“As we plow parking lots, we make piles of snow. So, you lose two [parking spots] instead of 30 spots. And when we have the chance, we come back and move the piles,” says Hoboken DPW supervisor James Davis.\nMORE: WEATHER CENTER\nDavis says that the department uses a payloader and smaller Bobcat to break up the piles of heavy snow and ice.

It started after one of them suggested that the state resorting to this practice should be sued. However, all of them agreed on a stringent strategy to ensure accountability, which is key to reducing air pollution levels.\nSunita Narain of the Centre for Science and Environment said many participants were acting as if India had just woken up to the air pollution problem. “If you want to work here, you have to respect the action being taken in the country. Farmers in Punjab and Haryana burn crop stubble because there are no incentives to discourage burning. They don’t have machinery that allows them to bail it and plough it back. Please don’t lecture us unless you are sensitive to the challenges here,” Narain said.\nAccording to Narain, local and global pollution levels are intrinsically linked. “The greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the transportation sector in the US is increasing. You can help us fix local and we can work together to fix the global problem.”\nDuring the group discussion, the participants discussed if India could have a policy of setting deadlines for the state governments to meet\nair quality standards. If they failed to meet the deadlines, they could be penalised by withholding central funds for various projects. The US has a similar policy and India could follow suit, the experts said.\nOne of the panelists, Laki Tisopulos of South Coast Air Quality Management District (SQAMD), said India’s air pollution agency is not strong. The way ahead could be to empower CPCB and set deadlines or “clean air” targets. There could also be a third-party verification to the process.\nNarain said such a system already existed in India but implementation is poor. She spoke about the comprehensive environmental pollution index (CEPI), which classifies different parts of the country on the basis of pollution, toxicity and other parameters. “But the data available was very poor so even decision-making has been poor,” she added.\nNarain told TOI\nthat she agreed in principle with the US model under which a highly polluted area draws lesser investment. “It forces accountability. It is a good model but we need to have basics in place.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But the origin of Jovian lightning has remained a mystery up until another famous flyby of Jupiter, this time by the Juno spacecraft.\nBuzzing the largest planet in our solar system for the first time in 2016, the Juno probe also spotted the lightning on Jupiter, just like Voyagers 1 and 2, Galileo, and Cassini did before it. But the state-of-the-art science equipment on board the spacecraft allowed it to capture unique data on Jupiter’s lightning strikes, unraveling some of the mysteries that have been puzzling astronomers for almost 40 years.\nIn a pair of studies published on June 6, scientists from the Juno mission describe the radio emissions coming from Jovian lightning — dubbed “whistlers” on account of their descending whistling pitch, which sounds a lot like a falling bomb — as well as the novel frequencies at which they were picked up by the spacecraft still in orbit around the gas giant.\nJust like in the famous GIF, Juno uncovered that lightning on Jupiter is very much the same as on Earth, while also being completely different than what we’re used to, revealed NASA.\nOne of the studies, featured in the journal Nature Astronomy, shows that lightning strikes on Jupiter “can be as frequent as on Earth,” lead author Ivana Kolmašová of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague told Space.com.\nThe research examined how often the Juno spacecraft detected lightning on Jupiter and found out that the probe’s Waves plasma and radio wave detector recorded more than 1,600 “whistlers.” That’s 10 times more than the number of signals picked up by Voyager 1.\nAccording to NASA, this is the largest database of low-frequency radio emissions to ever be recorded from lightning sources on Jupiter.\n“We succeeded in collecting the largest set of lightning detections known up to now,” Kolmašová told Gizmodo.\nThis bounty of data is attributed to the close range at which Juno surveilled the gas giant. The spacecraft came almost 50 times closer to the planet than Voyager 1 ever did, flying “closer to Jupiter than any other spacecraft in history,” states Juno’s principal investigator Scott Bolton from the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, who was involved in both studies.\nIn addition, the Waves data uncovered peak rates of four lightning strikes per second — six times higher than the values recorded by Voyager 1 — which prove Jovian lightning has similar rates to those observed in terrestrial thunderstorms.\n— Gizmodo (@Gizmodo) June 7, 2018\nThe other study, published in the journal Nature, unveiled that lighting on Jupiter produces not only kilohertz emissions, the singular radio range detected by Voyager 1 nearly four decades ago, but also gigahertz radio waves, just like lightning on Earth.\n“No matter what planet you’re on, lightning bolts act like radio transmitters — sending out radio waves when they flash across a sky,” said lead study author Shannon Brown, who is a Juno scientist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.\nBrown revealed that, during Juno’s first eight flybys of Jupiter, the spacecraft’s Microwave Radiometer instrument picked up 377 lightning blasts, which “were recorded in the megahertz as well as gigahertz range” — the same as “what you can find with terrestrial lightning emissions.”\nWilliam Kurth of the University of Iowa, who is study co-author on both papers, notes that the similarities found between lightning strikes on these two planets were a bit of a surprise.\n“Given the very pronounced differences in the atmospheres between Jupiter and Earth, one might say the similarities we see in their thunderstorms are rather astounding.”\nBut what makes Jovian lighting different from terrestrial lighting is its distribution. Unlike on Earth, lightning on Jupiter only seems to occur at high latitudes and is concentrated solely around the planet’s poles.\nIn a new paper published in Nature today, scientists from @NASAJuno Mission to Jupiter describe the ways in which lightning on Jupiter is both analogous and very different to Earth's lightning. https://t.co/Y1rWqA0oKc\n— Caltech (@Caltech) June 6, 2018\n“There is a lot of activity near Jupiter’s poles but none near the equator. You can ask anybody who lives in the tropics — this doesn’t hold true for our planet,” says Brown.\nKurth also chimed in on the matter, explaining the main difference between lighting strikes on the two planets.\n“That distribution of lightning is kind of upside-down from what we’d expect on Earth,” he said. “On Earth, thunderstorms tend to cluster around low latitudes, and on Jupiter, it’s the other way around.”\nAt the same time, it turns out that Jovian lightning is more frequent in the northern hemisphere than in the southern one, although scientists don’t have an explanation yet as to why this happens.\nBut the findings did reveal something important about Jupiter’s atmospheric composition and circulation. Because the gas giant orbits the sun five times farther than Earth does, it gets 25 times less sunlight than our planet.\nThis means that the sun’s rays are powerful enough to heat Jupiter’s equator, which creates stability in the region’s upper atmosphere and prevents warm air from rising up from within. (Jupiter’s atmosphere derives the majority of its heat from within the planet itself, notes NASA.)\nBut the poles are a different story and don’t have the same atmospheric stability because their upper atmosphere doesn’t receive the same amount of heat. Therefore, warm gases from the planet’s interior are rising up at the poles, creating the recipe for lighting.\nJuno is bound to make its 13th flyby of Jupiter on July 16. Perhaps the spacecraft will be able to find answers for the remaining questions when it swoops over the planet’s mysterious cloud tops once more.\nAlthough this upcoming enterprise was slated to mark the end of the Juno mission, NASA might allow the spacecraft to keep doing its magic for an additional three years, the Inquisitr reported yesterday.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Typically, this occurs after an entire batch of data has been evaluated. The most current studies come from Juno’s explorations of Jupiter’s atmosphere. Thanks to this data release, scientists now have the first 3D map of the atmosphere of the Solar System’s most giant planet.\nFour significant discoveries were emphasized in NASA’s news release announcing the collection of papers. The first is that Farrell cells-like systems exist in Jupiter’s atmosphere. Another has to do with the Great Red Spot, one of Jupiter’s most prominent characteristics.\nThe Great Red Spot, discovered almost 200 years ago, is one of Jupiter’s most exciting features. Until today, there had been no indication of how deep this massive anticyclone protruded into the atmosphere, regardless of how large the Earth’s diameter was. Juno provided some insight on the problem, but only as it zoomed by at 209,000 kilometers per hour.\nFortunately, it was able to do so twice, and during both flybys, the probe directed its microwave radiometer (MWR) towards the massive atmospheric structure.\nMWR, designed to peer behind Jupiter’s clouds, determined that the Great Red Spot reached 300 and 500 kilometers into the gas giant’s atmosphere. Minor storms only extend roughly 60 km into the shadows, making the mother of all anticyclones considerably more extensive than previously imagined.\nThat massive atmospheric structure, however, is merely one of Jupiter’s well-known atmospheric patterns. Another of its various bands of hue clouds is generated by intense winds blowing in opposing directions for each belt.\nThermoclines form when significant temperature variations occur in bodies of water, most often the Earth’s ocean. They are visible due to their different optical qualities, which make the two temperatures of water visibly distinct from one another. The fluctuating visual features of Jupiter’s counterpart, dubbed a Jovicline by its discoverers, are identical.\nCompared to adjacent systems, the belt appears extremely brilliant in MWR data at short depths into the atmosphere. At deeper depths, however, the neighboring systems seem brighter than the belt itself. MWR isn’t the only instrument focused on Jupiter during Juno’s 37 flybys thus far.\nThe Jovian Infrared Auroral Mapper (JIRAM) also gathered information, focusing on cyclones near the planet’s poles. An octagon is formed by eight different storms towards the north pole, whereas five unique storms in the south comprise a pentagon.\nIn typical atmospheric models, one of the cyclones would be dragged poleward. However, cyclones at each pole counteract this attraction, keeping each storm in the same pattern for years at a time.\nJuno will have plenty of time to study Jupiter’s storms and other features, as well as those of several of its nearby moons, as it continues its second extended mission beyond 2025. Hopefully, the spacecraft will proceed on a third lengthy mission more than 16 years after it was launched.\n32 of the 35 discoveries are nearly certainly the product of black hole mergers. When two black holes in a closed orbit are pushed together by mutual attraction, they eventually collide to form a single, massive black hole.\nThis collision generates ripples across space-time, similar to how rock in a pond causes ripples; astronomers may examine these ripples to learn about the nature of the black holes. The data revealed a variety of black gap masses, the largest of which weighed almost 87 times the mass of the Sun.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Most areas will get through both days with no precipitation.\nTemperatures on Saturday will be similar to Friday with low and mid 80s. Sunday will be closer to today, with highs around 80 degrees.\nQuiet weather will stretch into Monday as well. Temperatures will be back in the low and mid 80s with plenty of sunshine.\nTurning More Active\nBeyond Monday, the weather looks like it will turn more active.\nFirst will be an approaching front from the northwest. This may not arrive until late Tuesday with some showers and storms. Depending on the timing, much of Tuesday could also end up dry.\nThat front will likely still be in the area on Wednesday, bringing an additional threat for showers and storms.\nLow pressure may then ride along the front on Thursday, spreading more rain into the area. A new system may then roll in for Friday.\nThe details of these precipitation chances are sketchy this far in advance. The timing, position, strength, and path of the fronts and low pressure systems will need to be resolved further and could change our outlook.\nAt this time though, if you are looking for a window of dry weather, take advantage of the next several days.\nOver 43,000 Local Views in July\nThat is what your business or organization missed out on by not advertising on Finger Lakes Weather.\nIf you are looking to grow your local visibility and customer base, stop wasting time and money feeding Facebook and Google and invest your resources locally.

Sunspots, visibly dark areas within the sun, or areas of significantly lower temperature, 4000 degrees Celsius, occur continuously, ebbing and peaking in frequency in 11 year cycles. High sunspot counts correlate with high levels of solar activity. Unlike the bright loops of energy that can be seen on the sun’s surface as particles flow along lines within the sun’s magnetosphere, the darker areas or coronal holes exist where magnetic lines have only one anchor point in the sun’s magnetosphere, allowing plasma to escape.\nThis plasma carries part of the sun’s magnetic field with it; the interplanetary magnetic field or IMF. The density of the solar wind decreases with distance but its sphere of influence, the heliosphere, reaches past our solar system’s outer planets. The sun’s rotation causes this field to radiate in a spiral structure.\nThe speed of the solar wind averages 450 km/s but often varies significantly from 300 km/s to 1000 km/s. Large variances in the solar wind’s velocity, density, and magnetic can cause significant terrestrial disturbances.\nThe solar wind constantly distorts the earth’s magnetic field (caused by the rotating metallic fluids of its core) compressing it on the light side, into a half sphere, and elongating it on the dark side, in a tube, similar to the shape of a comet’s tail. As the supersonic solar wind approaches the obstacle of the earth’s magnetic field a shock front is formed; as the solar wind is directed around the earth, smaller magnetic waves occur between the earth and the sun slowing and changing the course of the streaming plasma.\nSurrounding the axis of the magnetic field, offset 11 degrees from the geophysical axis, are weaker areas that give energy rich solar particles little resistance. The charged solar particles that do make it into the upper atmosphere (ionosphere) excite electrons causing them to jump to higher orbits temporarily before they return to their original orbits by giving off auroral radiation and producing visible light in the process.\nAuroras (borealis in the north and australis in the south) are produced by the solar wind, fast-moving charged particles that escape the sun’s gravity, exciting gases in the earth’s upper atmosphere.\nThe color of auroral emissions is determined by the gases excited, primarily oxygen and nitrogen. Altitude also influences color; red is found above 200 km, yellow and green between 180 – 110 km, and blue and violet below that. These altitudes vary between dayside and nightside aurora; at night blue and green altitudes drop increasing in intensity, while red rises decreasing intensity.\nAuroras appear most consistently, almost continuously, and intensely in an oval band that rings the magnetic poles; in the north 67 degrees magnetic latitude at magnetic noon and 76 degrees magnetic latitude at magnetic midnight. Additionally a thinner weaker band of increased occurrence bisects this oval along a straight line between the sun and the earth.\nAuroras occur by night and by day. The difference between night and day auroras is the number of particles (greater in the day), the amount of energy the particles carry (less by day), and the dominant color (green by night, red by day). Dayside aurora only occur inside the auroral oval at high polar latitudes and are only visible when it is dark during the day.\nAuroras are extremely dynamic. Their zone of maximum occurrence can change by several hundred kilometers in minutes. And they can vary in orders of magnitude within seconds.\nIt’s small wonder that these fantastic colored lights that dance in mesmerizing patterns filling the heavens above have held a never-ending fascination for those who are lucky enough to witness them, whether first or second hand. They’re divine.\nLearn more about night photography in my digital photography workshops.\nFind out about my Iceland Auroras workshop here.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The purpose of this study was to investigate the acute effects of traffic-related pollution on lung function among children with asthma.\nWe recorded morning and evening forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) for 28 consecutive days in 182 elementary schoolchildren with physician-diagnosed asthma, and monitored ambient hourly air pollution concentrations.\nAn interquartile range (IQR) increase (6.0 μg·m−3) in the previous 24-h (20:00 h to 20:00 h) mean concentration of fine particulate matter 2.5 μm in diameter (PM2.5) was associated with a 0.54% (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.06–1.02) decrease in bedtime FEV1 (p = 0.027). This association persisted in two-pollutant models with ozone, nitrogen dioxide and sulphur dioxide. An IQR increase in mean daytime (08:00 h to 20:00 h) PM2.5 of 6.5 μg·m−3 was associated with a 0.73% (95% CI 0.10–1.37) decrease in FEV1 over the course of the day expressed as 100×(FEV1 bedtime − FEV1 morning)/FEV1 morning (p = 0.024).\nThis study suggests that, in children with asthma, relatively low concentrations of urban air pollution worsen lung function over a short period of time, even within a day. Of the pollutants measured, PM2.5 appears to be the most important.\nAcute and chronic exposure to urban air pollution in North America and Europe has been associated with increased respiratory symptoms, reduced lung function, increased number of hospitalisations and increased number of deaths from respiratory diseases 1–5. Although many different study designs have been used, the majority of the evidence comes from comparisons of daily concentrations of air pollutants with daily mortality or hospital admission counts. There have also been several panel studies which have reported associations between daily symptoms and/or lung function and daily measures of various air pollutants 6–14. The present study focuses on acute changes in lung function. We studied the effects of between-day changes in air pollution and tested a relatively unique hypothesis that acute change in lung function within a day, between morning and evening (diurnal change), was associated with fine particulate concentrations on the same day.\nThe study was carried out in Windsor, ON, Canada, with an estimated population of 216,473 in 2006 15. A unique aspect of the city is the Ambassador Bridge, which carries several thousand trucks daily between Windsor and Detroit, MI, USA. We identified children with asthma from a questionnaire survey carried out in the previous year of ∼16,000 elementary schoolchildren in Windsor. For the present study, we selected children whose parent or guardian had given a positive response to the question “Has a physician ever told you this child had asthma?”, and who had agreed to be contacted about future research. We selected children who were between 9 and 14 yrs of age when the initial questionnaires were completed, who spoke either of Canada’s official languages (English or French) and who lived in homes without cigarette smoke. A list of all eligible children satisfying these criteria was compiled. We telephoned their homes in random order and recruited the first 182 subjects who agreed to participate. The number of respiratory therapists available in Windsor to work on this study limited the number of subjects who could participate. The parent or guardian of each child gave written informed consent before the child participated in the study. The study protocol was approved by the Research Ethics Board of Health Canada.\nA short-term longitudinal study design with repeated measures was used. Each child completed a daily symptom diary, and performed forced expiratory flows in the morning and at bedtime for 28 consecutive days. Owing to resource constraints, children were studied in one of two test periods: October 11 to November 7, 2005 or November 14 to December 11, 2005.\nAir pollution measurements\nCity-wide air pollution hourly levels were estimated by averaging measures from two fixed-site monitors located in the western area of the city, upwind from the prevailing winds. These monitors, which are part of Environment Canada’s National Air Pollution Monitoring System, provided ambient levels of hourly fine particulate matter with a mass median aerodynamic diameter <2.5 μm in diameter (PM2.5), nitrogen dioxide (NO2), ozone (O3) and sulphur dioxide (SO2). The majority of the population lived within 10 km downwind.\nForced expiratory volume in 1 s\nRespiratory therapists instructed parents and children on the use of hand-held flow meters and daily symptom diaries. Forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) was estimated using a PiKo-1 electronic peak expiratory flow/FEV1 meter (Ferraris Medical, Louiseville, CO, USA). Three flows were to be recorded twice each day, first thing on arising in the morning and again at bedtime, before taking breathing medications. For analyses, we used the maximum evening and morning FEV1 values expressed as a percentage of the predicted value based on the equations derived by Hankinson et al. 16. We also analysed the diurnal (within-day) variation in lung function, which was expressed as 100×(FEV1 bedtime − FEV1 morning)/FEV1 morning.\nAll statistical analyses were performed using the SAS software package version 9.1 (SAS Institute, Cary, NC, USA). Differences in the distribution of children’s characteristics between the two study periods were evaluated using the Chi-squared test. Daily mean concentrations of the ambient pollutants as well as temperature and relative humidity were calculated, and Pearson correlation coefficients were estimated to better understand their inter-relationships.\nTo estimate the mean pollution values 12 and 24 h before the FEV1 measurement, we assumed that, on average, morning FEV1 was performed at approximately 08:00 h and bedtime testing at 20:00 h. To evaluate temporal associations between ambient levels of air pollution and FEV1, we calculated the mean of the hourly air pollution measures for the following periods preceding the FEV1 measure: <12 h, 12 to <24 h and 0 to 24 h. A similar approach was used to create temporal metrics for temperature and relative humidity.\nThe results obtained from linear mixed models were expressed as the percentage change in median FEV1 corresponding to an increase in the interquartile range (IQR) in air pollutant levels. The use of the IQR serves to standardise each pollutant, facilitating comparisons between the magnitude of effect of different pollutants 17.\nWe used an autoregressive covariance structure (AR1), which allows for a greater within-subject autocorrelation for FEV1 measures taken more closely in time. We assumed a random intercept and a fixed slope. There were no statistically significant differences in the fit of the models using fixed slopes compared with random slopes.\nThe same approach was used to control for confounding in the logistic and linear mixed model. We adjusted symptoms and FEV1 for all variables that were associated at a level of significance of p≤0.15 with both ambient measures of air pollution and FEV1 (table 1⇓). This list of potential confounders included the daily mean temperature, relative humidity, day of the week, number of hours spent on outdoor activities (<2 or ≥2 h), sex and study period. Two pollutant models were used to characterise which pollutant was more strongly associated with FEV1 after adjusting for the effects of other correlated ambient measures.\nCharacteristics of the participants are shown in table 1⇑. During the first period of enrolment, a smaller percentage of participants were female (30.5%) compared with the second period (44.8%; p<0.05). Overall, 58.8% of children’s households were reported as having a household pet. To be included in the study, all subjects had a history of “ever had asthma”, and most (95.1%) reported that they still had asthma. Of the participants, 96.7% reported at least one respiratory symptom during the 28-day study period, but 42.3% did not report taking any asthma medication during this same time. Children in the first study group reported a mean of 2.2 h outside daily compared with 1.6 hours in the second group (p<0.0001).\nFor each child, we calculated the morning and bedtime FEV1 % predicted averaged over their 28 days of study (table 2⇓). The median values for both these measures were similar to the mean values (<2%), which were consistent with a near normal distribution. The diurnal change in FEV1 from morning to evening, expressed as 100×(FEV1 bedtime − FEV1 morning)/FEV1 morning was 2.3%, whereas the median (IQR) change was only 0.4 (0.4–7.6)%. We assessed the effect of time on lung function to determine whether there was evidence of a learning effect. The variables time (number of days each subject was studied), study period (October–November, November–December) and time×study period were not significantly associated with FEV1 (all p-values greater than 0.2).\nConcentrations of air pollutants and IQRs were well below the US Environment Protection Agency ambient air quality guidelines for PM2.5 of 35 μg·m−3 for a 24-h average and 15 μg·m−3 for an annual average 18. In the present study, the 24-h mean was 7.8 μg·m−3 and the IQR was 6.0 μg·m−3 (table 3⇓). O3 decreased, SO2 increased and PM2.5 remained stable over the study period (fig. 1⇓).\nSO2, NO2 and PM2.5 were positively correlated with each other, whereas ozone was negatively correlated with these three pollutants (table 4⇓). The strongest correlation between two pollutants was 0.68 (p<0.0001), which was observed with NO2, and PM2.5.\nAdjusted for daily mean temperature and relative humidity, day of the week, duration of outdoor activity, sex and study period, an IQR increase (6.0 μg·m−3) in the previous 24-h (20:00 h to 20:00 h) mean concentration of PM2.5 was associated with a 0.54% (95% confidence interval (CI) 0.06–1.02) decrease in bedtime FEV1 % predicted (p = 0.03) (table 5⇓). No statistically significant associations were found between bedtime FEV1 and prior PM2.5 concentrations averaged over 24–48 h, 0–48 h or 0–72 h before lung function was measured. We found no statistically significant associations between evening FEV1 and NO2, SO2 and O3. In two-pollutant models with SO2, NO2 or O3, the PM2.5 effect remained significant at p<0.05 (fig. 2⇓).\nWe found no associations between morning FEV1 % predicted and pollutant concentrations with averaging times of 08:00 h on the day before to 08:00 h on the test day, 20:00 h to 08:00 h and 24:00 h to 08:00 h (overnight period). For the latter, adjusted mean interquartile increases in air pollution were associated with changes of 0.41 (95% CI -0.18–0.99) for SO2, 0.09 (95% CI -0.25–0.43) for NO2, -0.17 (95% CI -0.69–0.35) for O3 and 0.28 (95% CI -0.12–0.68) for PM2.5.\nDiurnal change in FEV1\nAn interquartile increase in daytime PM2.5 (6.5 μg·m−3) averaged between 08:00 h and 20:00 h was associated with a 0.73% (95% CI 0.10–1.37) decrease in diurnal FEV1 change, expressed as 100×(FEV1 bedtime − FEV1 morning)/FEV1 morning (p = 0.024) (table 6⇓). No statistically significant association was found between diurnal FEV1 and PM2.5 concentrations averaged 24–48 h, 0–48 h or 0–72 h before lung function was measured. Diurnal declines in FEV1 during the daytime were also associated with increases in daytime NO2 (p = 0.024) and SO2 (0.036) (table 6⇓). In two-pollutant models with SO2, NO2 or O3, the PM2.5 effect remained statistically significant (p = 0.016) only with O3 (fig. 3⇓).\nEffect modification of the FEV1 response to air pollutants\nFor the association between FEV1 and PM2.5, the first-order interaction term for corticosteroid use (on at least 50% of the study days versus less) was not significant, but power was poor with only 35 subjects reporting corticosteroids on at least half of the days. No significant differences in the FEV1–pollutant association were found for any of the pollutants and the following groups: male versus female subjects, those who spent at least 2 h outdoors daily versus those who spent less, and those whose baseline FEV1 was <85% versus ≥85%. For the sex comparison, the change in FEV1 % predicted for an interquartile change in 24-h mean PM2.5 was -0.54 (95% CI -1.13–0.04) for males and -0.54 (95% CI -1.37–0.28) for females. For baseline FEV1 level, the change in FEV1 % predicted was -0.88 (95% CI -1.53–-0.22) in the group with FEV1 ≥85% and -0.19 (95% CI -0.89–0.52) in those with lower FEV1.\nOther response variables\nThe presence or absence of difficulty breathing, cough, wheeze and chest tightness was indicated on the daily diary. The odds ratio for reporting chest tightness was 1.30 (1.06–1.58) for days with a mean SO2 in the greatest quartile (≥8.8 ppb) versus the lowest quartile (<2.3 ppb). No other similar contrasts between air pollutants and symptoms were significant at p<0.05. We did not find any significant effects of air pollutants on the peak expiratory flow measures but all point estimates were negative. For an interquartile increase in 24-h mean PM2.5, percentage predicted peak flow decreased by -0.17 (95% CI -0.70–0.35).\nAmong children with a history of asthma, bedtime lung function decreased with increased ambient concentrations of PM2.5 even after adjustment for other pollutants. There was an approximate 0.5 percentage point decline in FEV1 % predicted for an interquartile increase in pollutant. FEV1 declines were associated with recent air pollution exposure, both the 24-h average before bedtime flows and the 12-h average during the day. Others have detected minimal or no effects within the past 24 h, although significant effects were detected from 5-day averaged particulate concentrations 9, 13. Although both PM2.5 and NO2 may represent mobile combustion-related air pollution, two-pollutant models indicated that PM2.5 had the most robust effect on lung function. The air pollution concentrations in Windsor were much lower than in many large US cities where particulate pollution has been associated with mortality 4. We observed decreases in lung function at 24-h PM2.5 concentrations approximately five times less than the US National Air Quality standard of 35 μg·m−3.\nSignificance of findings\nWe were able to detect an adverse biological effect on the lungs from air pollution at levels within currently accepted guidelines for public safety, suggesting that air pollution standards should be revisited. Although the FEV1 change during a clinically diagnosed asthma exacerbation is much larger than the 0.54% change observed in this study, the latter is of public health importance. All children in the community are exposed to the ambient air pollution, resulting in a large number of children affected. Assuming that there is a population distribution of asthma severity and of sensitivity to air pollution, children with severe disease and increased susceptibility to air pollution would be more likely to have a clinically important exacerbation of asthma on high-air pollution days. This argument is supported by the empiric evidence. Norris et al. 19 reported that a change in daily PM2.5 of 11 μg·m−3 was associated with a relative risk estimate of 1.15 (95% CI 1.08–1.23) for a visit to the emergency department for asthma.\nStrengths and limitations of the present study\nWe did not have objective measurements of asthma. The use of medication would be more likely among those with more severe asthma, but reported use was not an effect modifier, suggesting that asthma severity is not a determinant of the response to air pollution. A meta-analysis of air pollution studies in children did not find children with asthma to be more susceptible than children without diagnosed asthma, which also suggests that asthma severity is not a consistent effect modifier 20. We do not know the reason for the stronger association between air pollution and bedtime flows compared with morning flows. Perhaps the children’s air pollution “dose” would be less in the 12 h before the morning FEV1 measurement because they would be indoors and exposed to lower concentrations of ambient pollution. Also, minute ventilation would be less while sleeping than during wakefulness. We did not measure indoor air quality, but only children living in smoke-free homes were included. Associations between FEV1 and day-to-day changes in ambient air pollution would not be confounded by indoor air allergens or irritants unless they changed on a day-to-day basis in concert with outdoor air pollution. Janssen et al. 21 studied the association between personal and outdoor concentrations of PM10 over time among 37 nonsmokers. The median Pearson correlation coefficient was 0.71 when not exposed to passive smoke, indicating that changes in outdoor levels reflect changes indoors. The forced vital capacity manoeuvre required for the FEV1 measurement was observed only during the training period. Increased variability of the test could have reduced the power to detect a true association with air pollution. However, we did detect an adverse relation with particles. The Pearson correlation coefficient between morning and evening values was r = 0.82 (p<0.0001), indicating a moderate degree of reproducibility.\nComparison of the present results with previous panel studies of children with asthma\nPeters et al. 13 studied a panel of 82 Czech children with asthma between November 1991 and February 1992. An increase of 6.5 mg·m−3 in 5-day mean sulphate was associated with a 5.62 L·min−1 (95% CI -9.93– -1.30) decrease in peak flow. Another report from the Czech panel by Peters et al. 13 showed significant associations between air pollution and peak flow during September 1991 and March 1992. Mortimer et al. 10 also detected a negative association between ambient O3 and morning peak flow among 846 children with a history of asthma recruited from eight US urban centres. Peak flow decreased by 0.59% (95% CI 0.13–1.05) for each 15 ppb increase in the 5-day moving average for O3. In one panel study of 22 Hispanic children with asthma by Delfino et al. 8, peak flows were not found to be associated with ambient ozone, NO2 or SO2. In another panel of 19 children with asthma by the same lead investigator, a 0.7% (95% CI -1.9–0.4) decrease in FEV1 was associated with a 7.5 μg·m−3 increase in PM2.5 averaged over the preceding 24 h at a central site 9. Using a passive nephelometer for personal monitoring, the observed effect size was statistically significant with a -5.9% (95% CI -10.8–-1.0) change in FEV1 for a 30 μg·m−3 change. Multiday moving averages for PM2.5 resulted in larger effect sizes but these were not significantly different from those for the previous 24-h average. In our study, earlier changes were detected with significant effects seen between morning and evening lung function associated with same-day PM2.5. The effect size per μg·m−3 of PM2.5 in our study was 0.08%, in close agreement with the 0.09% estimated in the study by Delfino et al. 9 despite the mean PM2.5 during the studies being 7.8 μg·m−3 and 10.3 μg·m−3, respectively. Whether exposed to higher or lower daily average concentrations of PM2.5, it appears that equivalent changes in PM2.5 have a similar magnitude of effect on lung function. Trenga et al. 14 reported an adverse effect of centrally monitored PM2.5 on the FEV1 of children with asthma, only if they were not receiving anti-inflammatory medications. We did not detect a significant difference between those with and those without asthma medications. A study similar to ours took place in Detroit (MI, USA), which is connected to Windsor by the international Ambassador Bridge 22. During six periods, each of 14 days, 86 children performed FEV1 measurements using a portable device and recorded daily PM2.5, PM10 and O3. For the entire study group, no significant associations were reported between FEV1 and pollutants. Subgroup analyses restricted to those reporting maintenance inhaled corticosteroids, and using three different lags, revealed that four out of 24 associations tested were statistically significant between single pollutants and diurnal FEV1 variation and/or lowest daily FEV1. For the subgroup reporting upper respiratory symptoms, eight out of 24 associations with single pollutants were positive at p≤0.05. The air pollutant association with diurnal variation was positive, whereas it was inverse in our study. Whether or not an increase or decrease in diurnal variation is considered an adverse response depends on the reason. In our study, the morning flows did not change significantly with air pollution. Thus, the decreased diurnal variation was due to a smaller than expected FEV1 improvement that normally occurs during the day and is unrelated to air pollution. A more recent study also compared air pollution levels with self-administered spirometry in a panel of children 23, in which 53 subjects with asthma were studied for 10 days. Peak hourly personal PM2.5 (averaging 90 μg·m−3), but not ambient levels, were associated with decreased FEV1. Maximum morning FEV1 decreases were seen with approximate 8-h lags, and maximum afternoon and evening decreases were associated with 24-h lags. No air pollution effects were seen in a group of 16 children taking a β-agonist, theophylline, and/or an anti-cholinergic medication. In our study, with much lower concentrations of ambient PM2.5 but 10 times the number of person-days of observation, we found maximum FEV1 effects within a lag time of 24 h after exposure and also effects on diurnal variation within a 12-h period.\nIn summary, this study provides evidence that acute changes in urban air pollution, even within a day, at concentrations less than in many North American urban centres, worsens lung function in children with asthma.\nStatement of interest\nThe authors gratefully acknowledge the Centre for Environmental Health of Ontario, the City of Windsor school boards, the Windsor community parents and children, the Windsor Medical Officer of Health, the Essex County Health Unit, the University of Windsor, the Ministry of Environment (all Windsor, ON, Canada), Environment Canada (Toronto, ON, Canada), the United States Environmental Protection Agency (Washington, DC, USA) and the International Joint Commission (Canada and USA).\n- Received September 9, 2008.\n- Accepted February 5, 2009.\n- © ERS Journals Ltd","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

For those who want to protect flowerbeds or other outdoor plants, Harris recommended covering it with a sheet, not plastic.\n“Plastic will burn the plants when it comes in contact with it,” Harris said. “The best thing to use when covering plants is a sheet or a blanket.”\nIn addition to the cold, the rainfall receive this week wasn’t enough to lift the state’s fire alert.\nAlthough the state has received up to 4 inches of rain this week, it was not enough to warrant lifting the existing Fire Alert, according to the Alabama Forestry Commission.\nState Forester Linda Casey said Friday that rainfall amounts should hold the fire situation down for approximately 24 to 36 hours unless additional rain is received.\nIn the last 30 days the state has battled 787 wildfires that have burned 8,049 acres. In this calendar year 2,695 fires have burned around 32,437 acres.\nDebris burning and illegal residential trash burning continue to be the leading causes of wildfires. The Commission strongly recommends that citizens postpone all outdoor burning until conditions have changed sufficiently to reduce the frequency and severity of wildfires.\nAlso, a red flag warning is in effect for Saturday. A combination of strong winds, low relative humidity and warm temperatures will create explosive fire growth potential.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The state’s climate can vary from Mediterranean along the coast with mild, wet winters and dry summers, to desert-like conditions in inland areas with hot temperatures year-round. Mountainous regions often have cooler temperatures and receive snowfall during winter months. Overall, California offers an array of different weather patterns across its various regions.\nExploring the Diverse Climate Patterns of California\n# Exploring the Diverse Climate Patterns of California\nCalifornia, with its vast geographical expanse and diverse topography, boasts an array of climatic conditions that beg to be explored. From snow-capped mountains to scorching deserts, this state offers a meteorological tapestry like no other. In this article, we delve into the unique climate patterns across different regions in California.\n## Northern Coastal Region\nThe Northern Coastal region of California is renowned for its moderate Mediterranean climate characterized by mild winters and cool summers. This idyllic weather can largely be attributed to the cooling effect of marine layers coming from adjacent Pacific Ocean currents.\nDuring summer months, coastal cities such as San Francisco experience temperatures averaging around 60-70°F (15-21°C). The presence of fog is quite common during early mornings and evenings due to cooler air being trapped beneath warm inland air masses colliding with chilly oceanic breezes.\nWinters tend to be relatively mild here along the coast, often having daytime temperatures ranging between 50-60°F (10-16°C). However occasional rainstorms punctuate these otherwise pleasant winter days bringing some much-needed precipitation.\n## Central Valley\nMoving inland towards central parts of California brings us face-to-face with another intriguing set of climate patterns found within the Great Central Valley – one America’s most agriculturally productive areas but also known for searing heatwaves in summertime!\nSummers here are fiercely hot; easily reaching triple digits Fahrenheit-wise or exceeding thirty degrees Celsius on a regular basis! It isn’t uncommon for daily highs above 100°F (38°C) throughout July and August which make it necessary for residents who live further away from coastal influences seek refuge indoors or turn up their fans!\nOn contrary though relief does come when winter arrives since December through February presents more temperate climates than their counterparts elsewhere down South like Los Angeles where fearsome Santa Ana winds spare nobody there just yet at least!\n## Southern Desert Region\nSlipping further to the south, we find ourselves immersed in the scorching embrace of California’s desert region. Known for its arid conditions and vast open expanses, this area is home to some of North America’s hottest places.\nThe Mojave Desert holds Death Valley National Park within its boundaries – a place notorious for recording one of Earth’s highest temperatures ever at 134°F (57°C)! This unforgiving climate with stark temperature fluctuations between day and nighttime creates an environment unlike any other on our planet; it truly showcases nature at both ends Extreme spectrums such as intense heat during daytime often accompanied by cold evenings due strong radiative cooling effect under clear skies which allows substantial heat escape into atmosphere overnight bringing chilly yet refreshing nocturnal relief though but don’t expect snow even here because low humidity levels hamper precipitation almost perpetually!\n## Mountainous Regions\nAs elevation increases across California’s various mountain ranges including Sierra Nevada or Cascade Mountains among others so too do climatic considerations begin veering from what’s observed lower altitudes towards something closer akin alpine regions found instead higher latitude nations outside United States – think Switzerland please!\nSummers days may be warm in valleys around foothills where most people live average highs about 90-100 °F range (32-38° C) however venturing upwards can yield dramatically cool down experience until fall really starts settling-in then magical transformation occurs when colors change leaves start falling heralding Winter while landscapes turn immaculate white show off few months subsequent Spring arrives breathing life back these desolate frozen lands ending cycle anew yearlike clockwork unless occasional hiccups brought climate change influences turning originality trends expected always precisely predictable anyway right?!\n### Conclusion: Embrace the Climatic Diversity\nCalifornia serves as a living testament to Mother Nature’s ability to weave together diverse climates within relatively small geographic spaces. From temperate coastal breezes to blistering desert heat, this state offers a climatic tapestry that is as captivating as it is varied.\nSo go forth and explore the many facets of California’s weather systems. Immerse yourself in its fogs, chase sunsets along sandy coastlines, seek solace from sweltering summer days amidst towering mountains, or marvel at the relentless harshness of its deserts. The choice is yours to embrace the climate patterns that make California truly one-of-a-kind!\nUnpacking the Mysteries Behind California’s Year-Round Sunshine\n# Unpacking the Mysteries Behind California’s Year-Round Sunshine\nCalifornia is renowned for its year-round sunshine, captivating locals and tourists alike. The state’s exceptional climate has long been a subject of curiosity, prompting many to wonder about the secrets behind this never-ending summer-like weather. In this article, we delve into the mysteries surrounding California’s consistent sunshine throughout the year.\n## The Latitude Advantage\nOne crucial factor contributing to California’s perpetual sun is its latitude positioning. Situated between approximately 32°N and 42°N latitude, much of California enjoys favorable solar access due to its proximity to the equator. This location enables abundant sunlight exposure as compared to regions at higher latitudes that experience more significant seasonal variations in daylight hours.\n## Topography Matters\nThe diverse topography across different parts of California also contributes significantly to their specific microclimates and overall sunny disposition. From coastal plains stretching along beautiful beaches with clear skies overhead right up through lofty mountains bathed in gleaming sunshine above clouds – each region offers unique characteristics affecting their local meteorological patterns.\n1. **Coastal Influence**: Along breathtaking stretches such as Pacific Coast Highway, cool oceanic breezes moderate temperatures near coastal areas while minimizing cloud cover formation—an essential ingredient for maintaining ample sunlight.\n2: **Inland Areas**: As one progresses towards central or southern inland locations like Los Angeles or Palm Springs, shelter from marine influences leaves these regions especially prone not only high temperature but uninterrupted brightness too—making them popular winter escape destinations!\n3: **Mountains**: Higher elevations bring cooler average temperatures; however crystal-clear skies are often found there despite lower temperatures on account elevation-related drop-off cause decreased humidity content present air mass here hence favoring excellent visibility coupled bountiful direct-sunlight any time day anytime around calendar providing ideal conditions outdoor activities ranging camping hiking photography skiing among others thriving under sparkling rays cascading down snow-capped peaks!\n## Influence of the Pacific Ocean\nThe vast expanse of the mighty Pacific Ocean holds a significant influence over California’s year-round sunshine. The cold waters along the state‘s coastline help maintain stable atmospheric conditions, mitigating potential cloud formation and encouraging sunnier weather patterns inland.\n1. **Marine Layer**: Sometimes during late spring or summertime, coastal regions might encounter foggy mornings due to an intriguing phenomenon known as “marine layer.” This blanket of cool moist air derived from nearby ocean often dissipates gradually giving way clear skies filled with glorious sunshine later on in day—an extraordinary display nature’s resilience before apparent hazy morning onset much-anticipated clearing bright rays shining through!\n2: **Upwelling Currents**: Along California coast, upwelling currents bring cooler nutrient-rich water rising surface displacing warmer result temperature decrease impacts surrounding air masses indirectly marine directly mixtures caused winds convey chilly these thus sustaining prevailing breezes in just perfect proportions for supporting plenty clean sunny days entire region hand what makes it so pleasant live here see well?\n## Weather Systems Interaction\nCalifornia is subject to unique interactions between diverse weather systems that contribute significantly towards its perpetual sunlight throughout the year.\n* Mediterranean Climate: Much thanks western edge North America major role shaping ‘Golden State’ colorful character!

From coastal breezes caressing pristine beaches to scorching desert heat that engulfs expansive landscapes, the Golden State boasts an array of regional weather variations that enthrall both locals and visitors alike.\nIn this article, we delve deep into understanding these captivating climate differences across various regions of California. Whether you’re planning a trip or simply fascinated by meteorology, join us as we uncover the unique characteristics of each region and shed light on how they contribute to shaping their distinctive climates.\n### Coastal Climate Paradises\nCalifornia’s coastline stretches over 800 miles along the glistening Pacific Ocean. The influence of marine air masses creates some truly spectacular microclimates where fog rolls gently ashore amidst scenic vistas brimming with life. Exploring cities such as San Francisco and Santa Barbara allows for witnessing firsthand nature’s intricate dance between land and sea elements.\n#### San Francisco Bay Area\nSan Francisco is renowned for its iconic landmarks like the Golden Gate Bridge but also its peculiar weather patterns caused by localized geography – majorly influenced by oceanic currents from Alaska flowing southward alongside cooler surface waters from Northern Californian coastlines year-round.\nDue to specific topographic features surrounding it (such as hilly terrain), “The City By The Bay” experiences significant temperature fluctuations throughout any given day – characterized by chilly mornings often enveloped in dense fog blankets known locally as “Karl”. While summer months feature milder temperatures compared to inland areas because winds carry cool sea breeze providing respite amid warm days.\n#### Southern Coastline Bliss\nAs one ventures further down towards sunny southern parts facing Baja California Peninsula Mexico; balmy beach towns epitomize endless summers kissed softly ear-to-ear with gentle sunrays peaking through calm skies devoid mostly even seasonal clouds making it the ideal escape for sunshine seekers.\n### The Majestic Sierra Nevada\nCalifornia’s majestic Sierra Nevada mountain range stands tall and proud, serving as an awe-inspiring backbone to the state. This region’s weather characteristics contribute significantly towards shaping both coastal and inland climates thanks mainly due eastward barrier blocking onshore air masses intersecting this mighty obstacle then forced upward leading condensation forming rain clouds provide substantial annual precipitation creating vibrant forests thriving by temperate moisture-rich environment sustained throughout their yearly life-cycles.\n#### High Elevation Challenges\nWith towering peaks reaching over 14,000 feet (4,267 meters) And while alpine regions experience some of Earth’s harshest environments; notably with heavy snowfall accumulations during colder months merit caution balanced preparation adventures into this winter wonderland but reward physical challenges ever wondrous scenery laced undulating landscapes diverse flora fauna accentuate majesty picturesque surroundings unparalleled elsewhere California contributing remarkably lands appeal outdoor enthusiasts nature lovers alike year-round magnet typical tourists seldom find West Coast neighbor Oregon rival such offerings times spell these stretches transformed lupines extraordinary spring blooms vistas lake-studded valleys made themselves fall-fodder weaving tapestry colors words fail adequately vocalize breathtakingly beautiful scenes span human calligraphy painted canvas mother earth creates unrivaled marveled witnessed profoundly deeply personally expressed poetry bark tree watched trees sway synchrony mystical ceremony communion planet binds poet inspiration instigating scribble alongside walk unending natural wonders special place people rimming care services pick sandal strap trailhead parking lot restful leads hiking trails stooped rugged backpack plunged face mist waterfall constantly remind me that body ephemeral token consciousness permit finite jaded forget projectile being wider yet reflexes slow appreciative gaze ragged edges robust shape odor fresh fallen moss cover gentle seducing young mindfulness momentary delays snapshot senses engage fabric woven together impeccable carefully thread history engaged thoughtfully awaken slumber Mascots brought constant companions picnic munching peanuts gravitational note steak laughing queer companionship seeking tables full growling sonic growing richer meaty conversations feast unexpected locust smattered pavement summer background medium without this overheard among bustle laughing sisters greasy pork parade daylight heartsolated sideline drinks peanut-clad mob stray wearer sucker urge arcane ofblood sugar levels Clasping wrinkled twist top recycled nectar held rejuvenating satisfaction lips sticky sweetness momentarily tinged collective flesh-appreciation apostles gently moments immortality luxury daring escapade past involving eluding sobriety attempting recapture waning reinvented variation acquired too-full childhood sighs blurt whispered mystery knowing DUI deliciously tudged sticking strangely tuned bar shaking hiccup roaring consolation putting smiles face strangers fleeting extend lawful exceptional moment fizzless aftermath holiday breakfast infused tang amiable squawking creek whispering eyes listened nuts remained early quiet astonished surprise turned apologetic glances flushed kissed linger stride balanced pursued joys still persists locking confusion welcomed conflict extinct promise distraction shimmer gazes confession pause routine decadence heightened sedative peace swooping drifted reinstated paradise ve foggy relinquishing fleeing captured reckless hear unexplainable climate enchant him assure dependability converged ignoring speculative limitless realities occupies senses relished comparisons turbulent inevitable hur\nThe Impact of El Niño and La Niña on California’s Weather Systems\n# The Impact of El Niño and La Niña on California’s Weather Systems\nWelcome! In this article, we will delve into the fascinating subject of El Niño and La Niña phenomena, exploring their significant impact on California’s weather systems. These natural climate patterns can cause dramatic shifts in temperature, precipitation levels, ocean currents, and atmospheric conditions. By understanding how these phenomena influence the Golden State’s weather patterns, we gain valuable insights into its climatic variability.\n## Understanding El Niño and La Niña\n1. **El Nino**\n– During an El Niño event in the Pacific Ocean basin,\n* surface waters become unusually warm along the equator.\n* Trade winds weaken or reverse direction near South America.\n– This leads to widespread changes in global weather dynamics due to altered atmospheric circulation patterns.\n2. **La Nina**\n– Conversely, during a La Nina event,\n* cooler surface waters prevail across large parts of the tropical Pacific.\n* trade winds intensify over regions near South America.\n– Similar but opposite impacts occur when compared with those caused by an El Nino event.\n## Effects on California’s Weather Systems\n### Temperature Patterns\n1. Enhanced warmth:\n– Under normal circumstances without any specific influences from either climatic phenomenon mentioned above,\ntemperatures tend towards average annual values around coastal areas like San Francisco (59°F) or Los Angeles (66°F).\n2a.Effects during different Events:\n-During strong El Niño events such as that experienced between 1997–98:\n° Higher-than-normal land-surface temperature emerges\n-Contrary period takes place at usually less frequently improving sea chemistry:\n° Instances involve time following both ’15 through ’16 which epitomize weak signals after powerful shows gotten thru late millennium + early ‘10s featuring consistently cooler surface temperatures\n2.b: Effect on further region — The Northwest Pacific Shore while discontent failure Affect\n°Individuals in California, particularly in the northern territories – frequently experience higher-than-average temperature akin rainfall shortage all too often times lessened by means of having inadequate snowpack\n3. Impact at Cooler Personalized zones :\n• During La Niña events:\n• Areas located near San Diego could endure decreased average yearly temp .conditions when compared to others.\n° associated climate signals contribute towards exaggerated chills.\n### Precipitation Patterns\n1. Enhanced Rainfall:\n– El Niño typically leads to increased precipitation chances across various parts of California,\n* with Southern regions experiencing more significant effects compared to Northern areas like Sacramento or San Francisco.\n– For instance, during the infamous “Godzilla” El Nino event (1997–98),\ncoastal cities such as Los Angeles witnessed nearly double their season normal levels〔including 24inch throughout months between Dec ‘97-Feb ’98!)\n2.Contrasting Impacts-With Reference To Becoming Dry :\n-LaNina will most likely present diminishing water amounts accessible concerned central+southern counties .\n_Opportunity for lesser rainy sequence is substantial vicinity feature_\na)Diablo/Wine Country plus Santa Barbara-area\nExample records reveal majority—especially ìn Wine Country zone @locations lìke Calistoga and/or Healdsburg remain extremely parched reports emphasize dwindling precip quantities specifically within these locations\n-Given six years from late personal millennium yrs through early stages belonging within current decade ，La nina episode remained related together wɪᴀelevated dryness amounting our State Of Identity producing tremendous repercussions called b e Industry regarding developing food crops + vegetation possibilities are; this might commence contributing drought situations breaking multitude local wildfire instances whilst susceptible fodder goes following wild cologne Go On 3.\nc)Histories linked towards severe droughts including that incident during ’12 ‒ like within Central Valley.\n## Ocean Current Patterns\n1. El Niño Impacts:\n– Warmer Pacific waters lead to modifications in oceanic conditions, primarily along the Californian coastline.\n– Increased water temperatures attract different fish species,\n* such as exotic pelagic (open-ocean) varieties and southern-dwelling marine life.\n– Abundance of warm-water nutrient sources allows populations of certain commercial fishes to thrive temporarily,\nwhich may positively influence fishing industries across coastal regions.\n2.La Niña Influences :\nShifting climate states correspondingly give way toward altering relationship between open-along with cold-blooded amateur fishermen developing seasonal fisheries depnence Whilst cold-bound amateurs flourish ，ventory remains dominant – they got clams/crabs + cold-sipping Fish\n## Atmospheric Conditions\nEl Nino/LaNina phenomena directly impact atmospheric dynamics affecting California’s weather further\n…especially through precipitation patterns+frequency overe Cal-area_auxiliary kindled occurrence-destructive storms eliciting both torrential","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It's bordered on three sides by water, the Atlantic Ocean to the east, the Gulf of Mexico to the west and the Straits of Florida to the south.\nWhat's The Climate Like In Florida?\nFlorida's climate can be summarised as having long and hot summers, brief and warm winters and short shoulder seasons.\nAs such a huge peninsula, Florida boasts the longest coastline of all 48 lower states. It is subject to a subtropical climate in its northern parts, while a tropical climate characterizes the southern regions of the state.\nThis (sub) tropical climate makes Florida a relatively stable year-round beach destination -temperatures remain very warm throughout the year, even in winter, and the seawater is comfortable all the time.\nRain In Florida\nRainfall varies throughout the year, with late spring through early autumn being by far the wettest time of the year. This is also when high humidity may be a problem to some people.\nThe climate in the state is milder than in other (sub) tropical destinations, due to the fact that all parts of it are located relatively close to the sea, which influences the climate and limits extreme weather conditions.\nSummer Weather in Florida\nWhen Is The Hottest Month To Visit Florida?\nFlorida heats up in summer, a long and hot season that lasts from June through September, with average temperatures ranging between 27°C in June and September and 28°C in July and August, which are the hottest months of the year.\nIn those two peak summer months, the mercury rises to a scorching afternoon high of 33°C, while it doesn't fall below an average low of 22°C at night.

Here's a look at some of the most severe:\nHurricane Sandy (October 2012)\nWhen the deadly storm blew through Anne Arundel, Annapolis had flooding that left part of the Alex Haley statue at City Dock submerged. Spa Creek spilled over the bulkhead, heavy winds gusted to 90 mph, more than 300,000 Baltimore Gas and Electric Co. customers lost power and two Marylanders died. Two people had to be rescued by Anne Arundel firefighters when they climbed on top of their car to escape rising waters in Gambrills.\nThe Derecho (June 2012)\nThe derecho — an intense traveling wind storm — devastated many parts of Maryland and wiped out power for nearly 900,000 people, according to FEMA. Two people were killed during the storm, which also downed utility lines and trees and prompted President Barack Obama to declare it a major disaster and order federal aid.\nHurricane Irene (August 2011)\nIrene brought winds sustained at 60 mph, with a top speed of 80 mph and caused about 180 road closures throughout the state because of downed trees and flooding, mostly on the Eastern Shore. Over 100,000 people lost power in the county.\nHurricane Ernesto (September 2006)\nThe storm took its toll on power lines, leaving more than 100,000 BGE customers without power. Low-lying areas in the southern part of the state and sections of the Eastern Shore, where winds hit 62 mph, had tree damage and minor flooding. City Dock in Annapolis also flooded.\nTropical Storm Isabel (September 2003)\nIsabel wreaked havoc on Maryland, causing several fatalities including two traffic-related deaths, three carbon monoxide poisonings, one flood victim and two electric utility worker deaths. Over 2,000 people were displaced and housed in temporary shelters provided by the American Red Cross. Tides five to eight feet higher than normal along the Chesapeake inundated coastal communities with floodwater. The Bay Bridge was closed after sustained winds hit 50 mph, thousands of trees were downed, and many buildings, including the Navel Academy, filled with water. Maryland was one of the most severely hit states, with Anne Arundel County taking the brunt of it: 196,000 county residents lost power; 150 roads were closed; and over 570 homes were declared uninhabitable because of damage. The National Weather Service estimated over $400 million in damage state-wide.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Sadly, folks in Oklahoma can't say that today.\nThe devastation and death toll are staggering after a half-mile-wide twister packing 200 mph winds tore through Moore, Okla., on Monday afternoon.\nSome two dozen people, including nine children, were killed, and the toll could rise. Scores more were being treated at hospitals. Block after block of the Oklahoma City suburb lay in rubble from the strongest-category storm that meteorologists say packed more power than the atomic bomb that leveled Hiroshima.\nUntil the past week or so, the 2013 tornado season had been relatively quiet. This had been the longest the United States had gone into May without registering an EF1 or stronger tornado, the type that can cause damage, according to researchers at the National Severe Storms Laboratory.\nBut that ended when tornadoes claimed lives in Oklahoma and Texas over the past week.\nThis news should remind all of us living in Tornado Alley that these storms can and do strike at random and without mercy.\nApril 2011 saw 497 EF1 or stronger tornadoes, a record number and more than the next two highest months combined, according to the severe storms lab. From June 2010 through May 2011, there were 1,050 EF1 or stronger tornadoes, a record high for a 12-month period.\nThe Moore disaster also highlights two important factors surrounding these deadly storms — the importance of warnings beforehand and the certainty that neighbors will help in the aftermath.\nAfter 30 years of testing and trials, the National Weather Service has made a $50 million radar upgrade that will double the information radar can glean from a storm. To make warnings of dangerous weather clearer and more convincing, the weather service also has beefed up and simplified the bulletins it issues. Tested last year in Kansas and Missouri, the testing was expanded this year to 12 more states, including Nebraska and Iowa. The change adds explicit descriptions of the damage expected and in an easier-to-read format.\nBut the warnings work only if they are taken seriously. When dangerous weather threatens, residents in a storm's path need to be alert to the changing weather and pay attention to the warnings, and they should have a family tornado plan in place so everyone knows where and how to take shelter quickly.\nDisasters such as this one show again that neighbors and complete strangers will rally to help.\nSome of the first to volunteer were from Joplin, Mo., itself the scene of the deadliest tornado in 60 years on May 22, 2011, a storm that claimed 158 lives. About a dozen public safety employees from Joplin quickly headed to Moore. “We remember the amount of assistance that we received following the tornado two years ago, and we want to help others as they helped us,” Joplin's city manager said. The Lincoln-based Nebraska Task Force One Urban Search and Rescue Team arrived in Moore on Tuesday.\nMidlanders are no strangers to dangerous weather and have ably demonstrated their willingness to help whenever disaster strikes. There's a need again now.\nWhile Iowa Attorney General Tom Miller issued a timely caution Tuesday about criminals who might try to take advantage of the caring, a number of legitimate nonprofit groups are collecting donations to assist the Oklahoma victims. Those include the American Red Cross and Salvation Army. Contact information for both have been published in The World-Herald and on Omaha.com.\nAs we've seen before, it's a safe prediction that many Midlands residents will step forward to help. It's a show of unity that links the neighbors in Tornado Alley.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Int J Biometeorol (2014) 58: 799. doi:10.1007/s00484-013-0660-0\nEvidence of the impact of air temperature and pressure on cardiovascular morbidity is still quite limited and controversial, and even less is known about the potential influence of geomagnetic activity. The objective of this study was to assess impacts of air temperature, barometric pressure and geomagnetic activity on hospitalizations with myocardial infarctions and brain strokes. We studied 2,833 myocardial infarctions and 1,096 brain strokes registered in two Moscow hospitals between 1992 and 2005. Daily event rates were linked with meteorological and geomagnetic conditions, using generalized linear model with controls for day of the week, seasonal and long-term trends. The number of myocardial infarctions decreased with temperature, displayed a U-shaped relationship with pressure and variations in pressure, and increased with geomagnetic activity. The number of strokes increased with temperature, daily temperature range and geomagnetic activity. Detrimental effects on strokes of low pressure and falling pressure were observed. Relative risks of infarctions and strokes during geomagnetic storms were 1.29 (95 % CI 1.19–1.40) and 1.25 (1.10–1.42), respectively. The number of strokes doubled during cold spells. The influence of barometric pressure on hospitalizations was relatively greater than the influence of geomagnetic activity, and the influence of temperature was greater than the influence of pressure. Brain strokes were more sensitive to inclement weather than myocardial infarctions. This paper provides quantitative estimates of the expected increases in hospital admissions on the worst days and can help to develop preventive health plans for cardiovascular diseases.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Vertical wind shear is starting to take a toll on Yagi, according to the Joint Typhoon Warning Center. Northwesterly wind shear has made a slight tilt to the system with the upper-level center displaced about 20 nautical miles east of the low-level center. When the lower and upper level centers of circulation are not “stacked,” a tropical cyclone begins weakening.\nAt 09:00 UTC (5 a.m. EDT/6 p.m. Japan local time) Yagi had maximum sustained winds near 50 knots. Tropical storm force winds extend out 95 miles from the center, making the storm about 200 miles wide. Yagi was centered near 29.2 north and 136.9 east, about 307 miles west-northwest of Chichi Jima, Japan. Yagi was moving to the north-northeast at 17 knots. Yagi is kicking up seas with wave heights topping 21 feet, so the southeastern coast of Japan can expect rough seas until Yagi passes by.\nYagi is forecast to turn to the southeast and move away from Japan over the next couple of days, where it is expected to weaken and dissipate.Text credit: Rob Gutro\nRob Gutro | EurekAlert!\nWater - as the underlying driver of the Earth’s carbon cycle\n17.01.2017 | Max-Planck-Institut für Biogeochemie\nModeling magma to find copper\n13.01.2017 | Université de Genève\nYersiniae cause severe intestinal infections.

The best place to start is between the radiant (or \"point of origin\" of the meteor shower) and the zenith (straight above you). The radiant is where the flight course appears to start from. If you look straight at the radiant for a meteor shower display, you will likely not see much of a tail on each \"shooting star\" since you are looking at them close to head on.\n- On the chart below, see the \"date of maximum,\" which shows when meteor showers will be the strongest.\n- Note that the \"best viewing\" times are usually predawn and late evening—when the radiant is highest in the sky for the night, or highest before sunlight obscures the view. The time of the year for each shower is determined by when Earth's orbit crosses the path of the meteoroids.\n- You don't need any special equipment. In fact, binoculars do not work for meteor showers. The naked eye is best.\n- Spread a blanket on the ground and look up in the dark night sky.\nFor more information, click here to read our article, \"What are Meteor Showers: Facts About Shooting Stars.\"\n2013 Meteor Showers Guide\nNote that the meteor shower dates do not change much from year to year.\n- \"Predawn\" means an hour or so before morning twilight. Best time to view most major showers.\n- \"Late evening\" means approximately between 10 p.m. and midnight (or a little past).\nIn general, most major meteor showers are best seen after midnight; some do not even appear until after then. Usually, a better time to see them is after 2 a.m., and the best time is about an hour or so just before morning twilight. Geminids, however, can be seen starting earlier, such as around 9 or 10 p.m., until morning twilight. Sometimes Draconids may be visible at nightfall through early evening.\nSee the monthly Sky Watch for highlights of the night sky and a printable sky map!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Then the book familiarizes with basic important definitions of terms such as stimulated emission of radiation, population inversion, spontaneous emission, absorption, laser, lidar, maser, radar, water vapor mixing ratio, water vapor density, etc.... . Some basic equations used in lidar and some lidar techniques are also introduced. Water vapor is one of the most important atmospheric variables that play a key role in air quality, global warming, and climate change. Despite its abundance in the atmosphere, and its importance for the climate system, many questions regarding water vapor are presently unresolved. Raman Lidar system has an extraordinary ability to sense accurately water's high temporal and spatial structure in the atmosphere. This book is a review of the electromagnetic theory.

It might pay out this year, though, if the white flurries start falling on an Eiffel Tower, a pyramid and a volcano come Wednesday night as forecast by the National Weather Service.\nThose huddled in New York City to watch the ball drop could expect a mostly sunny Wednesday with a low of 27º F by evening. No chance of snow.\nForecasts in Las Vegas, though, pinned the area’s chances on New Year’s Eve snow at 70%, along with a 32º F low.\nBut even with that level of confidence, snowball fights on the Strip remain far from a sure bet.\nMoisture, snow’s key ingredient, remained elusive in predictions as of late Monday.\n“Whether or not we get any snow, it’s still going to be very cold for New Year’s,” said Chris Stachelski, a meteorologist with the service in Las Vegas.\nIt’s part of a cold and “somewhat moist” storm moving south across California onto the Mojave Desert and Las Vegas bringing snow to parts of Northern Arizona and Utah, according to National Weather Service forecasts.\nIt’s going to be cold, that’s certain, so cold that the meteorologists at the National Weather Service warned tourists much like a parent might to, “bring layers and dress warmly,” and wear shoes with some good traction, not typical if attempting acts of fashion on the social holiday.\nSome 340,000 people are expected to pack the Strip and Las Vegas’ downtown Fremont area for festivities.\nOrganizers of the fireworks show shot from the rooftops of seven casino resorts remained confident Monday that snow wouldn’t damper their show. Michael Mack with Las Vegas Events said only wind could shut it down and in the 14 years the company has been producing the show, it hadn’t.\nIf it does snow, it’ll be BYODI at Las Vegas’ McCarran International Airport where it’s up to airlines to bring de-icing equipment with them. The airport doesn’t have any snow removal gear on hand nor is it required to. The last time any notable amount stuck to the airport’s runways was 17 December, 2008.\nEarly forecasts said the southern Nevada area could expect up to three inches in spots 2,000 feet above sea level and up to an inch on the Strip and surrounding Las Vegas valley but by Monday evening, meteorologists had scaled that back to up to 2in in higher elevations and “a light coating to half inch, an inch,” on the Strip, Stachelski said.\nThe main issue may be getting to or leaving Las Vegas. Snow is expected Tuesday evening through Wednesday in one of the main routes for Southern Californians, the Cajon Pass on Interstate 15. Travelers coming from Utah and Arizona should be fine, until Wednesday night, Thursday and Friday when snow is expected on Interstate 40 through Flagstaff and US Route 93 to Phoenix, Stachelski said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The PACE (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, Ocean Ecosystem) satellite took to the skies with the help of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket, embarking on its journey from Cape Canaveral, Florida, just before dawn on Thursday.\nAchieving a unique polar orbit as it soared south over the Atlantic, PACE now sits 676 kilometers above Earth’s surface. From this vantage point, it is poised to conduct daily global scans using two innovative scientific instruments, while a third will capture monthly measurements. This advanced technology will allow for daily monitoring of the world’s oceans, tracking the intricacies of ocean biology such as the distribution of phytoplankton – the tiny plants and algae essential to marine ecosystems.\nThe mission’s pivotal research will also be instrumental in enhancing weather forecasts, from hurricane tracking to predicting severe weather patterns. Moreover, the data obtained will be crucial in observing Earth’s ongoing temperature changes and predicting the occurrence of harmful algae blooms with greater accuracy.\nNASA’s Earth science director, Karen St. Germain, expressed optimism about the fresh perspective PACE will offer alongside an existing constellation of over two dozen Earth-observing satellites. PACE distinguishes itself by the ability to perceive a vast spectrum of 200 colors, eclipsing the current seven or eight-color range, which will enable refined analysis of airborne particles and sea life.\nThe launch of PACE signifies not just a scientific milestone but also a testament to resilience. The project continued to move forward despite attempts by the Trump administration to terminate it. In the coming months, as initial data starts flowing in, the value of PACE will begin to unfold, marking a significant leap in our understanding of Earth’s complex marine and atmospheric systems.\nFAQ about NASA’s PACE Satellite Launch\nWhat is the PACE satellite?\nPACE (Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, Ocean Ecosystem) is NASA’s most sophisticated climate satellite to date, aimed at studying the Earth’s oceans and atmosphere.\nWhen was the PACE satellite launched?\nThe PACE satellite was launched just before dawn on Thursday from Cape Canaveral, Florida.\nHow is the PACE satellite put into orbit?\nIt was launched with the assistance of a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket.\nWhat is the orbit of PACE?\nPACE achieved a polar orbit and sits 676 kilometers above Earth’s surface.\nWhat are the capabilities of the PACE satellite?\nPACE can conduct daily global scans with two scientific instruments and capture monthly measurements with a third. It has the ability to monitor oceans daily and track phytoplankton distribution, among other tasks.\nHow does PACE contribute to weather forecasting?\nThe satellite’s data will enhance weather forecasts, including hurricane tracking and severe weather pattern prediction.\nWhat makes PACE unique compared to other Earth-observing satellites?\nPACE can perceive a vast spectrum of 200 colors, which is significantly more than the usual seven or eight colors, enabling refined analyses of airborne particles and sea life.\nWhat was noteworthy about the PACE project’s development?\nThe project moved forward despite attempts by the Trump administration to terminate it.\nWhen can we expect data from PACE?\nInitial data from the PACE satellite should start flowing in the coming months.\nDefinitions of Key Terms and Jargon\n– Phytoplankton: Microscopic plants and algae that are part of the ocean’s ecosystem and play a crucial role in the marine food web and oxygen production.\n– Polar Orbit: An orbit in which a satellite travels over the Earth’s north and south poles, enabling it to scan the entire Earth as the planet rotates.\n– Aerosols: Tiny particles suspended in the atmosphere that can affect climate and living organisms.\n– Harmful Algae Blooms (HABs): Overgrowth of algae in the water, which can produce toxins harmful to both marine life and humans.\nSuggested Related Links\nFor more information on NASA’s missions and news, you might want to visit:\nTo explore further information on SpaceX and their launches:\nPlease note that the websites mentioned above are major domains relevant to the article’s content and should be 100% valid URLs.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

We’ll Be All Totally Hot. According to Robert Kates, an editor for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the latest IPCC projections estimate average global temperatures will rise by between 5.4 degrees Fahrenheit and 11.2 degrees Fahrenheit over the next 100 years. In the early 1990s, the IPCC and the United Kingdom’s Hadley Centre estimated Maine’s average temperature will rise four degrees by 2100.\n2. We’ll Swim Back Cove, Not Run It. Scientists estimate the ocean will rise two feet by 2100, which means parts of Portland that were originally below sea level could flood often. Much of the Back Cove neighborhood was built up from below sea level, as were parts of the Old Port. The good news is the future’s swimming commuters will backstroke through warmer ocean water (by about two degrees) conveniently devoid of lobster, other shellfish, and coldwater fish, which will have migrated north. The bad news? Frequent flooding can cripple important coastal-wetland ecosystems, contaminate well water, and cause outbreaks of parasitic infections like giardia and cryptosporidiosis.\n3. We’ll Learn to Love Our Furry Friends. As Maine’s temps rise and vegetation increases, rodent and pest populations will likely rise as well, bringing with them diseases like Lyme Disease, West Nile Virus, and Eastern Equine Encephalitis.\n4. We’ll Breathe (Not So) Easy. Expect warming temps to add to southern Maine’s already dicey air quality, as heat waves with temperatures in the 90s and 100s happen more frequently and last longer. Concentrations of ozone, which makes up a big part of smog, could increase by four percent. More of our descendants will likely suffer from asthma, compromised lung function, respiratory inflammation, and allergies.\n5. We’ll Hate the Snowball Effect. Cross-country skiing in Maine will be a thing of the past when ice storms, not snow storms, become the winter norm by 2100. (Downhill ski resorts will likely survive thanks to snowmaking.) To add insult to injury, because the bare ground absorbs much of the solar radiation the white stuff used to reflect, Maine’s snow-free climate may make temps here climb faster than the global average.\n: News Features\n, Science and Technology, Nature and the Environment, Sciences, More","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In this study, indoor and outdoor air quality were compared between homes utilizing central air conditioning(AC; n=14) and evaporative cooling (EC; n=7). We pre-weighed 37-mm polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) filters (pore size 2.0 μm) then placed them in PM2.5 Personal Environmental Monitors (PEM). To prepare the PEMs, impact plates were greased and each part wiped down with a KIM wipe. Following this, the Leland Legacy Pumps were connected to their assigned PEMs and calibrated to 10 ± 0.1 liters per minute. Indoor and outdoor PM2.5 samples were collected at each study home. Participants were asked to refrain from cooking, burning candles or incense, or vacuuming indoor for 24 hours during the sampling period. PTFE filters were then post-weighed and the Leland pumps were post-calibrated. The PM2.5 concentration was then calculated. EC homes had more PM2.5 on average than AC homes. The indoor to outdoor air pollution ratio (I/O) of AC homes was 0.95, while the I/O of evaporative cooler homes was 1.50. Our data suggest that AC homes in Utah County may not provide significant protection against outdoor air pollution during summer months. Moreover, our findings suggest that evaporative air conditioners may contribute to indoor PM2.5, although the mechanisms behind this are unknown. One explanation is that the large volume of air introduced into EC homes may stir up settled dust in the house. This, in combination with outdoor PM2.5 brought into the home through the evaporative cooler, may explain the I/O ratio greater than 1.0. We are limited by a small sample size. Our next steps include comparing the outdoor PM2.5 concentrations measured in our study to nearby reference monitors operated by the Utah Division of Air Quality, and adding more homes to the study in summer 2023.\nUniversity / Institution: Brigham Young University\nFormat: In Person\nSESSION C (1:45-3:15PM)\nArea of Research: Science & Technology\nFaculty Mentor: Jim Johnston","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

U.S. District Court in Louisville remained open, albeit with a skeleton staff and no court hearings. A judge in Smithland, in western Kentucky, postponed jury selection in a murder trial because of the weather.\nInterstates in Louisville were in \"pretty good shape,\" but the snow fell so fast that stretches that had been cleared were being covered with another layer, said Andrea S. Clifford, a Kentucky Transportation Cabinet District 5 spokeswoman.\nIn northeastern Kentucky, roads were also snow covered and slick before dawn, said Allen Blair of the state Transportation Cabinet.\nA wintry mix was forecast for Morehead, then snow with up to 5 inches by late Wednesday. In Paducah, it was all snow early Tuesday, but was expected to taper to flurries after about noon.\nThe Louisville airport remained open, with only 18 cancellations among it's 166 daily flights, said airport spokeswoman Trish Burke. Two snow teams alternated 12 hour shifts to keep the runways clear, Burke said.\nThere have been cancellations to and from Washington, D.C., Chicago, Charlotte, N.C., Philadelphia and Baltimore -- all places hit harder by the winter weather, Burke said.\n\"We're doing, I think, pretty well,\" Burke said.\nOnce the snow stops, the problem becomes falling temperatures, Rogers said. What was slush and water is likely to refreeze overnight, creating slick roads again, he said. Road crews will remain on duty, attempting to clear roads, Rogers said.\n\"It's not completely over yet,\" Rogers said. \"Let the road crews do their thing.\"\n(Copyright 2010 by The Associated Press.

In addition to curbing emissions of methane, the new rule will reduce levels of smog-forming volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and toxic air pollutants from new, reconstructed and modified oil and gas sources.\nBuilding on its 2012 requirements to reduce VOC emissions, the EPA has updated the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS). The final NSPS will yield significant reductions in methane emissions from new, reconstructed and modified processes and equipment, along with reducing VOC emissions from sources not covered in the agency’s 2012 rules. These sources include hydraulically fractured oil wells and equipment used across the industry that was not regulated in the agency’s 2012 rules. The final rule also requires owners/operators to find and repair leaks, also known as “fugitive emissions,” which can be a significant source of both methane and VOC pollution.\nMost sources subject to the 2012 VOC reduction requirements also are covered by the new requirements to reduce methane. Moreover, they will not have to install additional controls, because the controls to reduce VOCs also reduce methane.\nEPA issued two rules to clarify permitting requirements: the Source Determination Rule, and a final federal implementation plan to implement the Minor New Source Review Program in Indian country. The final Source Determination Rule clarifies when oil and gas equipment and activities must be deemed a single source when determining whether major source permitting programs apply.\nThe new rules, which both amend 40 CF part 60 subpart OOOO and add a new subpart OOOOa are comprised of roughly 600 pages of new regulations and are extremely comprehensive.

Strong winds with these intense storms and cold fronts can knock down trees, utility poles, and power lines. Storms near the coast can cause coastal flooding and beach erosion as well as sink ships at sea. In the west and Alaska, winds descending off the mountains can gust to 100 mph or more, damaging roofs and other structures.\nExtreme cold often accompanies a winter storm or is left in its wake. Prolonged exposure to the cold can cause frostbite or hypothermia and become life-threatening. Infants and the elderly are most susceptible.\nIce storms are sometimes associated with winter storms. Heavy accumulations of ice can bring down trees, electrical wires, telephone poles and lines, and communication towers. Communications and power can be disrupted for days while utility companies work to repair the extensive damage. Even small accumulations of ice may cause extreme hazards to motorists and pedestrians.\nHeavy snow can immobilize a region and paralyze a city, stranding commuters, stopping the flow of supplies, and disrupting emergency and medical services. Accumulations of snow can collapse buildings and knock down trees and power lines. In rural areas, homes and farms may be isolated for days, and unprotected livestock may be lost. The cost of snow removal, repairing damages, and loss of business can have a large economic impact on cities and towns.\nThe last major snowfall in wave country was a record-breaker when over 22 inches fell on February 4 - 6, 1998. The last paralyzing storm came with ice and snow in January of 1994. This storm cost the city of Louisville and surrounding areas a great deal of time, expense, and inconvenience.\nWATCHES AND WARNINGS\nWinter Storm Watch Severe winter conditions, such as heavy snow and/or ice are possible within the next day or two. Prepare now!\nWinter Storm Warning Severe winter conditions have begun or are about to begin in your area& . Stay indoors!\nBlizzard Warning Snow and strong winds will combine to produce blinding snow (near zero visibility), deep drifts, and life-threatening wind chill. Seek refuge immediately.\nFrost/Freeze Warning Below freezing temperatures are expected and may cause significant damage to plants, crops, or fruit trees. In areas un accustomed to freezing temperatures, people who have homes without heat need to take added precautions.\nWINTER STORM SAFETY TIPS\nFind Shelter. Try to stay dry. Cover all exposed parts of the body.\nNo Shelter. Prepare a lean-to, wind break, or snow cave for protection from the wind. Build a fire for heat and to attract attention. Place rocks around the fire to absorb and reflect heat.\nDo Not Eat Snow. It will lower your body temperature. Melt it first.\nIn a Car or Truck:\nStay in your car or truck. Disorientation occurs quickly in wind-driven snow and cold.\nRun the motor about ten minutes each hour for heat. Open the window a little for fresh air to avoid carbon monoxide poisoning. Make sure the exhaust pipe is not blocked.\nMake yourself visible to rescuers. Turn on the dome light at night when the engine is running. Tie a colored cloth (preferably red) to your antenna or door. Raise your hood to indicate trouble after the snow stops falling.\nExercise. From time to time vigorously move arms, legs, fingers, and toes to keep blood circulating and keep warm.\nAt Home or in a Building:\nStay Inside. When using alternative heat from a fireplace, wood stove, space heater, etc: use fire safeguards, properly ventilated.\nNo Heat. Close off unneeded rooms. Stuff towels or rags in cracks under doors. cover windows at night.\nEat and Drink. Food provides the body with energy for producing its own heat. Keep the body replenished with fluids to prevent dehydration.\nWear Layers of Clothing. Loose-fitting, lightweight, warm clothing. Remove layers to avoid overheating, perspiration, and subsequent chill.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The “fire” is really the sun’s brilliant surface, shining behind the moon in the far part of its orbit around Earth. 2019’s only annular eclipse – the third and final solar eclipse of this year – falls on December 26. It’s visible along a narrow path in the world’s Eastern Hemisphere. Like a total solar eclipse, an annular solar eclipse happens when the new moon moves directly in front of the sun. During a total solar eclipse, the new moon completely covers over the solar disk. During an annular eclipse, the lunar disk is too small to totally cover over the sun, so an annulus – or thin ring of the sun’s surface – surrounds the new moon silhouette. The first solar eclipse on January 6, 2019, was a partial solar eclipse, and the second one on July 2, 2019, was a total solar eclipse. Because this is an annular eclipse – not a total solar eclipse – there is no safe window for directly watching this eclipse without proper eye protection.\"\nSee more from Earth Sky HERE:\n_______________________________________________________________________________ High temps on Thursday will be VERY warm across the central part of the nation with temps running nearly +15F to +25F above average!

Some of the rain could be locally heavy with flooding. Areas of heavy snow will continue across the Four Corners region, so of which could add up to 1ft. or more through the end of the week. This storm will eventually move into the Plains by the weekend with the potential of heavy snow across the Upper Midwest. ______________________________________________________________________________ Southwest Rain and Snow Another surge of Pacific moisture will impact parts of the Southwest through the end of the week with areas of heavy and high elevation snow. Take a look at the preciptiation potential through 7PM Friday and note that parts of southern California could see nearly 1\" to 2\" of rain or more, which could lead to localized flooding. There will also be areas of heavy snow in the high elevations, including parts of southern California, where more than 1ft. of snow can't be ruled out throughThursday! _________________________________________________________________________ Heavy Ranifall Potential Here's NOAA's WPC 7-day precipitation potential across the nation, which suggests areas of heavy moisture across the Southwestern US with several inches of rain and feet of snow possible. Note that most of this moisture will impact the region through the 2nd half of the week and should turn drier by the weekend. Meanwhile, Pacific moisture will move out into the Plains over the next several days with areas of decent rain and some snow potential as you head north into the Upper Midwest. Stay tuned! _____________________________________________________________________________ \"Heat waves expose city dwellers to higher temperatures than forecast\" \"People living in cities are disproportionately affected by extreme weather, becoming exposed to higher than predicted temperatures during heat waves. Leiqiu Hu at the University of Alabama in Huntsville and her colleagues analysed temperature and census data from 16 metropolitan areas in the US. They found that during heat waves people living in urban areas experienced temperatures an average of 1.9°C higher than what was forecast. The difference was highest in Salt Lake City, where urban temperatures were 3.8°C higher than predicted. The discrepancy is significant considering that a heat wave is already associated with temperatures on average 3.6°C hotter than normal, says Hu. Different areas within a city have temperature discrepancies throughout the day, which need to be taken into account to make accurate predictions about a population’s heat exposure. “If we consider the population movement and population distribution within a city, actually we have to add another 1.9°C to really represent the city’s exposure temperature to extreme heat,” she says. Much of this was due to the urban heat island effect, in which metropolitan areas are warmer than rural areas as a result of human activity. Materials commonly used in urban areas for roads and roofing, for example, absorb more solar radiation than natural land surfaces.\" ___________________________________________________________________ \"Ask the Weather Guys: What is a good weather book for children ages 10 and up?\" \"Q: What is a good weather book for children ages 10 and up?A: To answer this question, we asked some of our librarian friends for help.\n(We make recommendations independently, but participate in affiliate advertising programs that may pay us commission if you make purchases at Amazon.com and other linked retailer sites.)

When the skies finally opened, nature was unmerciful. Unrelenting downpours in October turned to flash floods, destroying her meagre home and few remaining possessions, and washing away whatever harvest and bony animals farmers managed to save during the months without rain. \"I have nothing now,\" 67-year-old Ali told AFP in a squalid camp on the outskirts of Beledweyne in central Somalia. Here, 180,000 people fled the fast-rising waters in the country's worst floods in memory. The arid Horn of Africa country has always been hostage to climate extremes. Rain is erratic, and drought a feature of life. But catastrophic weather events are occurring in Somalia with ever-greater fury and frequency, trapping millions in a near-constant cycle of crisis. Little by little, the ability to recover is ground down, say experts. There is no time to rebuild homes and replenish food stocks before another disaster strikes. Impoverished and weakened by decades of war, battling an armed insurgency, Somalia is ill-equipped to cope with the destabilising impact of double-tap environmental crises. Aid budgets are stretched trying to respond to back-to-back emergencies. In May, the United Nations launched a drought appeal, warning of looming starvation as Somalia faced its worst harvest on record. Six months later, it's again appealing for help -- this time for $72.5 million (65.1 million euros) for half a million victims of flood. \"There hasn't been a day this year where we haven't been talking about either drought or floods,\" Abigail Hartley, deputy head of office for the UN humanitarian agency OCHA in Somalia, told AFP.\"\nSee more from France24 HERE:\n___________________________________________________________________________\"Roasted Australia: Hottest Days on Record for the Continent\"\n\"Australia is having a December heat wave for the ages, with some of the most widespread and intense heat ever observed on the island continent. The nationally averaged high temperature on Wednesday was an astounding 40.9°C (105.6°F), beating the previous daily record of 40.3°C from January 7, 2013. Even more impressive, Thursday topped the Wednesday reading by a full degree Celsius, coming in at 41.9°C (107.4°F). Thursday’s reading is almost certainly the hottest nationally averaged high not only for Australia but for any continent on Earth at any time of year. All other continents see at least some of their summer heat modulated by the presence of either tropical rainforests or cooler midlatitude/high-latitude regions. On Thursday, Nullarbor in South Australia topped out at 49.9°C (121.8°F). This is the highest temperature recorded anywhere on Earth in any December, and the fourth highest at any location on any date in Australian history. The current heat wave is not expected to topple the nation’s all-time single-location record of 50.7°C (123.3°F) set at Oodnadatta, South Australia, on Jan. 2, 1960. I wouldn’t rule out such a reading entirely, though. Nullarbor is located just a few miles inland from the Southern Ocean. On January 23 of this year, Red Rocks Point station—located about three hours west of Nullarbor on the sparsely settled coast, and just 70 meters (230 feet) from the ocean—hit 49.1°C (120.4°C), which is apparently the hottest temperature recorded on Earth so close to open water.\"\nSee more from Wunderground HERE:\n_______________________________________________________________________ Thanks for checking in and don't forget to follow me on Twitter @TNelsonWX","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

There will be still be partial and penumbral eclipses after Tuesday morning and before March 14, 2025, but the complete moon will not fall into the darkest part of Earth’s shadow — called the umbra — for years.\nWhen earth’s shadow moves across the moon, the white ball of rock turns red — often called a blood moon. The red color is caused by the wavelength of light scattered by the atmosphere. During daylight the sky is blue because of that light’s shorter wavelength, scattered by earth’s atmosphere.\nDuring sunset the light must pass through more atmosphere and travel further, showing yellow, orange and red wavelengths to human eyes. NASA explains why an eclipse looks red:\nDuring a lunar eclipse, the Moon turns red because the only sunlight reaching the Moon passes through Earth’s atmosphere. The more dust or clouds in Earth’s atmosphere during the eclipse, the redder the Moon will appear. It’s as if all the world’s sunrises and sunsets are projected onto the Moon.\nNo special equipment is required to observe a lunar eclipse, which unlike an eclipse of the sun, is completely safe to look at. Utahns will have a view of the moon as it passes through the full shadow, if local cloud cover cooperates.\nForecasts are for partly cloudy skies starting at approximately 11 p.m. Monday, giving the Beehive State a possibility to observe the full eclipse. It will be visible across North America and Central America, but in Puerto Rico the moon will set after totality starts, NASA said.\nAlaska and Hawaii residents will be able to see every stage of the eclipse while Asia, Australia and New Zealand can also view it.\nIf it is cloudy, the eclipse can be viewed via NASA’s YouTube page.\nUtah’s moon-viewing timeline, all listed times are Utah local time:\n- If clouds stay out of the way, Utahns will be able to observe the moon enter Earth’s outer shadow with a subtle dimming at 1:02 a.m. Tuesday.\n- At 2:09 a.m., the moon will enter the umbra part of the shadow and the eclipse begins. The portion of the moon inside the umbra, a bite-sized bit, appears very dark.\n- Then at 3:17 a.m., the entire moon moves into the umbra and the sphere will turn a red hue. A telescope or binoculars will help with an enhanced viewing experience. Cameras with tripods can grab exposures lasting several seconds.\n- At 4:42 a.m. the moon exits the shadow and the red color will fade, with a bite appearing extra dark of the part that remains in deep shadow.\n- Agents report finding child porn, bag of children's underwear in Utah man's home (pageviews: 5101)\n- Snow advisories could bring up to 14 inches of snow Friday night (pageviews: 4500)\n- Utah man arrested, charged with possessing fentanyl with intent to distribute (pageviews: 2760)\n- High winds forces late start for northern Utah school districts (pageviews: 2490)\n- Passenger dead after attempting to move crashed truck on SR-89 (pageviews: 2389)\n- School bus hits and kills 15-year-old girl (pageviews: 2147)","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In it, they said BGE refused to give them specific outage information directly after the storm hit, and that the utility generally needed to improve its performance during severe weather events.\nIn its report, BGE stated that it “Had no prior warning that a significant operational storm would be impacting BGE’s service area until approximately 10:30 PM; no request for crews was made by BGE at this time.”\n“It is important to note that no utility east of the Mississippi River could have anticipated the raw strength of this storm system,” the report reads.\nA head meteorologist at the National Weather Service agreed.\n“Forecasting convective storms … is one of the most difficult things to do,” according to Jim Lee, meteorologist in charge at the National Weather Service (NWS) in Sterling, W.V.\nNWS forecasts about 20 to 25 severe thunderstorm watches a year, Lee said. Derechos are more like 4 or 5-year events in this region, and the storm that swept through Maryland on June 29, he said, “that’s more like once every two or three decades.”\nOn the morning of Friday, June 29, BGE scheduled calls with its weather service providers. According to the report, the two calls both yielded similar reports “low threat of thunderstorms for the evening, but not severe.”\nNWS sent out a statement at 7:30 p.m. that Friday, warning damaging winds were likely in Howard and nearby counties.\n“We didn’t have a lot of confidence at that time” that the storm would hit the area, Lee said, because at that time, the storm still had not crossed the Appalachian Mountains.\nThe mountains are a crucial landscape when it comes to forecasting large-scale wind storms in the Mid-Atlantic, Lee said. Typically, “as soon as they hit the Appalachian Mountains, they fall apart.”\nIn addition, he said, at about 6:30 p.m. Friday, the squall line – or line of severe storms – was still in Ohio and looked like it would be heading south and west of Washington.\n“By 9:30 p.m. we were getting a lot more confident,” Lee said. NWS issued a special weather statement at 9:35 p.m. that advised an “extremely dangerous thunderstorm” would impact the Baltimore-Washington area.\nA storm watch - which means conditions are favorable for a storm – was issued at 9:51 p.m. for Howard, Carroll, Baltimore, Harford and Anne Arundel Counties.\nThe goal at NWS is a 17-minute lead-time for severe thunderstorm watches. “If you work in Ellicott City,” Lee said, “we want to be able to provide you 17 minutes, so that you can seek shelter, go outside and roll up the windows, put your deck furniture away and bring your kids inside.\n“In this event we gave over 37 minutes of lead-time. From a forecasting standpoint, that’s very good.”\nIn its report, BGE also noted that it was not until about 10:30 p.m. that “the full strength and destructive nature of the storm was known.” The utility had, the report said, taken steps earlier in the day to “pre-mobilize additional crews to respond to potential heat-related outages and what was anticipated to be normal thunderstom activity.”\nBut the derecho was not “normal thunderstorm activity.” It was, in the words of the report, “One of the most destructive storms in BGE’s nearly 200-year history.”\n“It was a freak storm,” Lee said.\n“The state of the science doesn’t allow us to say ‘Hey, BGE, hey PEPCO, in 10 hours we’re going to have a derecho. The science isn’t there yet. We would love it to be. But it isn’t.”\nRead Patch's coverage of the derecho and its aftermath:\nThis article has been edited to indicate that filing a report with the PSC is standard procedure after a major outage and is required by Maryland law.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Such ultrarelativistic electrons, which make up the outer band of the Van Allen radiation belt, can streak around the planet in a mere five minutes, bombarding anything in their path. Exposure to such high-energy radiation can wreak havoc on satellite electronics, and pose serious health risks to astronauts.\nNow researchers at MIT, the University of Colorado, and elsewhere have found there’s a hard limit to how close ultrarelativistic electrons can get to the Earth. The team found that no matter where these electrons are circling around the planet’s equator, they can get no further than about 11,000 kilometers from the Earth’s surface — despite their intense energy.\nWhat’s keeping this high-energy radiation at bay seems to be neither the Earth’s magnetic field nor long-range radio waves, but rather a phenomenon termed “plasmaspheric hiss” — very low-frequency electromagnetic waves in the Earth’s upper atmosphere that, when played through a speaker, resemble static, or white noise.\nLink To Full Story\nLink To Another Story","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Dorian’s intensification was unprecedented, with its winds increasing from 150 mph to 180+ mph in only nine (9) hours. When Dorian made landfall, its sustained winds of 185 mph tied the record for the strongest winds ever observed in the Atlantic. Perhaps more shocking, though, was how slowly it crawled over the Bahamas, allowing the wind to build up the huge wall of water for the storm surge, inundating the area repeatedly with drenching rains, and pulverizing most everything in its path with EF-4 (185) mph tornadic-like swirling winds for 48 hours.\nWhile Dorian is a record-setting hurricane, it also fits a pattern. Dorian made 2019 the fourth straight year in which a Category 5 hurricane formed in the Atlantic Ocean, the longest streak on record. And climate scientists warn that Dorian may be a harbinger of what hurricanes will increasingly look like as the climate continues to warm.\n“The link between rapid intensification and climate change is robust,” says Jennifer Francis, an atmospheric scientist at Woods Hole Research Center.\nBecause a hurricane’s primary source of fuel is heat in the ocean, as the oceans continue to warm, there is plenty of energy available for storms like Dorian to develop and grow rapidly. Additionally, warm air holds more moisture. Increasing water vapor in the atmosphere is leading to wetter hurricanes, more extreme rainfall events, as well as providing extra fuel for developing storms.\nSo what does this mean? Climate models predict that Category 4 and 5 catastrophic hurricanes in the Atlantic could become almost twice as common in the Atlantic over the next century as a result of climate change.\nHurricane Dorian was far more devastating because of the way it stalled over the Bahamas. Unfortunately, stalling events are becoming more common with hurricanes and tropical cyclones. In 2017, Hurricane Harvey sat over southeast Texas, dumping more than five (5) feet of rain, and Hurricane Florence in 2018 deluged the Carolinas.\n“As the Earth’s atmosphere warms, the atmospheric circulation changes. These changes vary by region and time of year, but there is evidence that anthropogenic warming causes a general weakening of summertime tropical circulation. Because tropical cyclones are carried along within their ambient environmental wind, there is a plausible a priori expectation that the translation speed of tropical cyclones has slowed with warming.” (James P. Kossin, 2018, A Global Slowdown of Tropical-Cyclone Translation Speed, Nature 558, 104-107)\nIn other words, hurricanes have no engines to move on their own; they are steered by large-scale atmospheric winds and if these guiding winds shift or collapse, the hurricane doesn’t move, making these types of hurricanes more difficult to track.\nJOIN Barb and John as they discuss Hurricane Dorian and What Storms May Come.\nJoining the show during the second hour is chiropractic physician and author, Ya-Ling J. Liou, who will be discussing her book, Every Body’s Guide to Everyday Pain.\nPersistent aches and pains plague nearly one-fifth of all adults in the U.S., according to a National Health Interview Survey. But victims can learn to identify the culprits of their pain from reading their body’s clues.\nBurning pains or stabbing pinches are the body’s way of telling you that you need to pay attention. Once serious underlying causes are ruled out through blood tests, MRIs or X-rays, you can do the detective work to trace the pain back to its trigger point–whether the cause is mechanical, chemical, emotional, or some combination of the three.\nWhen you try to ignore or power through your pain, you teach your brain to get good at being in pain, warns Ya-Ling Liou, a pain management expert. This is how chronic pain sets in. Targeting the situations that cause pain allows you to take back control.\nYa-Ling will spell out the functions of the systems involved in pain so that you can become your own expert on healing what ails you. Her advice, based on sound medical science, offers hope to those who have been living with chronic pain and helps them become their own experts in pinpointing and alleviating their nagging points.\nYa-Ling Liou, D.C., is a chiropractic physician who earned her doctorate from New York Chiropractic College. After more than 20 years of clinical experience, she continues to expand and share her intuitive body care techniques. Her book, Every Body’s Guide to Everyday Pain, takes into account the whole person, and aims not only to address the mechanical balance of the body, but also the chemical and emotional aspects that so often influence this balance.

The average length of Solar Cycle 24 was 11 years and the 4th-smallest intensity since record keeping began. The weakest cycle in 100 years was this one.\nWhat is the sunspot number today?\nSunspot number 11 is new regions.\nThe sun is in its 11 year cycle\nThe solar cycle is where the Sun's magnetic field goes through. The Sun has a magnetic field that changes every 11 years. The Sun's north and south poles switch places. It will take another 11 years for the Sun's north and south poles to flip back.\nIs we currently in a solar minimum?\nDuring the grand solar minimum periods, the solar cycles are at a lower intensity than usual. The minimum start time for the event was 1790.\nWhat will happen in Solar Cycle 25?\nThe start of a new Solar Cycle means there will be more sunspots and activity. The Solar Cycle 25 may have a slow start, but is expected to peak with a sunspot range of 95 to 130.\nWhat is the current sunspot cycle?\nWhen extensive recording of solar sunspot activity began, Solar Cycle 24 was the most recently completed solar cycle. It began in December of 2008 with a sunspot number of 2.2 and ended in December of 2019. The next cycle of the sun is Solar cycle 25.\nWhen was the last solar flare?\nThe X9.3 class flare was recorded by the Solar Dynamics Observatory. On July 23, 2012 a massive, potentially damaging, solar storm barely missed Earth.\nThere will be sunspots in 2020\nIn a new article published in the peer-reviewed journal Solar Physics, the research team predicts that Sunspot Cycle 25 will peak with a maximum sunspot number somewhere between 210 and 260, which would put the new cycle in the company of the top few ever observed.\nIs it possible that we are in a solar minimum in 2021\nIt began in December with a smoothed minimum sunspot number. It is expected to last until about 2030. Solar cycle 25 Max count month September 2021.\nWhere is the sun?\nThe Sun is located in the Milky Way. Our Sun is in a spiral arm that extends from the Sagittarius arm.\nIs the sunspot active now?\nNASA says we started a new solar cycle in late 2019, and it will get more active in the coming years. Sunspots are an indicator of magnetic activity on the sun. The more active the sun is, the more sunspots it has.\nIs the sun getting weaker?\nThe beginning of the 25th cycle is expected in 2020 as scientists believe the Sun was at its weakest in the last 100 years. The Sun may be going through a period of decreased activity known as the Modern Grand Solar Minimum from 2020 to 2053.\nIs the sun getting smaller?\nThe sun is shining. Shrinking and growing again. When the sun's magnetic activity is high, the sun's radius shrinks by up to two kilometres. The sun is not a static object.\nIs the sun getting brighter?\nThe sun is getting hotter with time. The Sun's luminosity is estimated to increase by about 6% every billion years. Earth will live for about 1.1 billion years as a result of this increase. The planet is too hot to support life.\nThere will be sunspots in 2023\nPredicted Sunspot Number and Radio Flux Date\nWhen was the last solar maximum?\nIn 2000 there was a solar maximum. NASA expected a solar maximum in 2010 or 2011. The solar maximum was ranked among the weakest on record because it wasn't declared until 2014.\nHow do sunspot cycles affect Earth?\ngeomagnetic storm activity will increase if sunspots are active. During sunspot maximums, the Earth will see an increase in the Northern and Southern Lights and a possible disruption in radio transmissions and power grids.\nHow many years are in a sunspot cycle?\nThe sunspot cycle lasts around eleven years. The length of the cycle can vary. Between 1700 and the present, the sunspot cycle has ranged in length from nine years to fourteen years.\nWhat is the sunspot cycle quizlet?\nThere is a solar cycle. The sunspot cycle is also called the sunspot cycle. The number of sunspots can rise to a maximum or fall to a minimum during an 11-year cycle. The interval between minima and the periodic change in the number of sunspots is about 11 years.\nDoes the sun have a corona?\nThe outer atmosphere of the Sun is called the corona. It extends many thousands of kilometers above the visible surface of the Sun, transforming into the solar wind that flows outward through our solar system.\nCan a solar flare destroy the planet?\nSolar flares will not destroy the Earth. The occasional eruptions of the Sun may cause damage to power grids if they reach our planet.\nWhat would happen if we had an event?\nIt would cost an estimated one to two TRILLION dollars in damage if this type of solar storm occurred today. It would cause a lot of economic and social disruptions.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The estimated peak winds of the tornado reached 110 mph as it carved a half-mile path in Panola County.\nAnother EF1 tornado touched down late Friday in Nacogdoches County, which had maximum winds of 100 mph, knocking down a large tree onto a mobile home, killing one person and injuring another, the NWS report showed.\nA tornado in Shelby County touched down just after midnight Saturday before cutting through neighborhoods on the south side of Center. According to the report, the tornado snapped trees, caused damage to homes and caused one injury because of pine tree that fell on a roof.\nThe strongest and most damaging of the tornadoes in the region touched down just after 1 a.m. Saturday in Bossier City. The twister started just south of Barksdale Air Force Base, moved toward Haughton before strengthening and destroyed two manufactured homes, killing two people and injuring a third.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Two climatic regions are distinguished: the polar (southern part of the okrug's territory) and subarctic (northern and eastern parts). The average temperature in January is from −12 ° C in the southwest to −22 ° C in the northeast; the average temperature in July is from +6 ° C in the north to +13 ° C in the south. Permafrost occupies almost the entire central and northeastern parts of the okrug.\nThere are up to 100 sunny days a year. Fogs are often observed: from 64 to 100 days a year on the coast and from 37 to 72 days inland.\nThe Nenets okrug is subject to systematic invasion of Atlantic and Arctic air masses. Frequent change in air masses is the reason for the constant variability of the weather. In winter and autumn, winds with a southern component prevail, and in summer, north and north-east, due to the invasion of cold Arctic air on a heated continent, where atmospheric pressure at this time is lowered.\nThe entire territory of the district is located in the zone of excessive moisture. Annual precipitation ranges from 400 mm (on the coasts of the seas and Arctic islands) to 700 mm. The minimum rainfall is observed in February, the maximum - in August-September. At least 30% of the precipitation falls in snow.\nThe average duration of thunderstorms is 10-20 hours per year in the west, east and south of the district. In the north of the district - less than 10 hours a year.\nAccording to wind pressure, the district belongs to the IV district (800 Pa) in the south; V district (1000 Pa) in the northern part; VI district (1250 Pa) on the islands of Kolguev and Vaigach, as well as on the Kanin Peninsula.\nBy the thickness of the wall of ice, the okrug belongs to the II district (15 mm) in the east and west; III district (20 mm) on the islands of Kolguev, Vaigach and the Kanin Peninsula; District IV on the territory of the Pai Khoi ridge.\nThe main part of the district has a flat relief. Almost 90% of the plains lie within the altitudes of up to 100 meters above sea level; as a result, the district is replete with small lakes (connected by short channels) and swamps (10-20% of the territory). Among the prominent hills are the Timan Ridge and the Pai-Khoi Ridge (height up to 467 m). The main river of the region is Pechora and its tributaries. A characteristic feature of the area is a small proportion of groundwater (less than 5-10% of the water balance of the territory).\nIn view of the listed natural features, the entire territory of the Nenets Autonomous Area has a vulnerable, extremely sensitive, difficult and slowly recovering ecosystem.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The US National Hurricane Center said the storm was blowing at a maximum speed of 160 mph (260 km / h). It was centered about 80 miles (130 km) east-southeast of Puerto Cabasos, also known as Bilvi, Nicaragua, and moved westward at a speed of 9 miles (15 km).\nAuthorities have warned that Iota could be washed ashore by landslides and floodwaters in the flood-prone areas of Etta, and that the storm surge could reach 15 to 20 feet (4.5 to 6 meters) above normal.\nThat storm surge was on Yasmina Wright’s mind in the vicinity of Philvi’s El Mulle on Monday, sitting tight against the sea.\n“The situation is not good,” White said. “We woke up without electricity, it was raining and the surf was very high.”\nFried, who works at a small-scale fishing organization called Bigvinera, said the roof of his house was blown off two weeks ago in Etta. “We fixed it as much as we could, and now I think the wind will take it back, because they say they (Iota) are even stronger,” Wright said, echoing around her as she climbs the neighbors ’windows and reinforced roofs.\nDuring Etta the surf came to the back of his house, where he lives with the other eight members of his family. “Today I am afraid again of losing my home. I am afraid of all of us who live in this neighborhood.”\nSome neighbors have moved elsewhere with relatives, but most have stayed, White said. “We’re almost here,” he said. “Neither the army nor the government came to move us.”\nCairo Jarkin, Nicaragua Emergency Response Project Manager for Catholic Relief Services, visited the Bilvi and small coastal communities on Friday.\nAt Wawa Bar, he said he saw Jarkin’s “total destruction.” People have been working frantically to put roofs over the heads of their families, but now Iota is threatening to take the rest.\n“It can destroy the little ones that were standing,” Jarkin said. There were other communities locally that he could not even reach because of the condition of the roads. He said he heard Wawa Bar was evicted again on Saturday.\nOver the weekend evacuation sites were removed from low-lying areas in Nicaragua and Honduras.\nLimport Bucardo, a Miskito tribesman, said many went to churches in Bilvi. He left Etta at home with his wife and two children, but this time decided to move to a safer neighborhood with relatives.\n“We repaired our homes and didn’t settle down when another hurricane came,” Bucardo said. “The shelters in Bilvi are already packed, with people from (surrounding) communities.”\nIoda is the 30th named storm of the unusually busy Atlantic hurricane season this year. This is the ninth hurricane to intensify this season, and it is a dangerous event. Such activity has focused on climate change, with scientists claiming it could cause wet, strong and devastating storms.\nAnd was Nicaragua was hit by a Type 4 hurricane that killed at least 120 people as floodwaters and landslides caused by torrential rains in parts of Central America and Mexico. It then plunged around Cuba, the Florida Keys and the Gulf of Mexico before landing again near the Cedar Key of Florida, and across Florida and the Carolinas.\nIota predicts 8 to 16 inches (200-400 millimeters) of rain in northern Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala and southern Belize, and 30 inches (750 millimeters) in isolated areas. The epicenter was reported below the Pacific Ocean floor, however; no tsunami alert was issued.\nEtta was the 28th storm named this year, which equaled the 2005 record. Remains of the 29th Theta disintegrated Sunday in the East Atlantic Ocean.\nFor the past two decades, meteorologists have been more concerned about storms like Iota, which act much faster than normal. They created an official gateway to this rapid intensity – a storm reaching 35 mph (56 km / h) in just 24 hours. Iota doubled it.\nEarlier this year, Hannah, Laura, Sally, Teddy, Gamma, Delta, Zeta and Iota all intensified rapidly. Laura and Delta set the record for rapid intensification.\nNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Climate and hurricane scientists when studying its effect found that “it has a lot to do with man-made climate change.”\nAccording to Phil Clotsbach, a hurricane researcher at Colorado State University, there were two major hurricanes in the Atlantic, and this is the first time in November that winds of 110 mph (177 km / h) were blowing over Iota and Etta. When the upper winds of Iota reached 155 mph (250 km / hr), they joined Lenny in 1999 for a strong Atlantic hurricane later in the calendar year.\nThe official end of the hurricane season is Nov. 30.\nAssociated Press Writers Marlon Gonzalez in Tegucigalpa, Honduras; Seth Borenstein in Bethesda, MD; Christopher Sherman of Mexico City contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The first reason is that we had mostly clear skies across South Florida. Why does that matter? Well, when skies are cloudy all the city lights reflect off the clouds above and back to the surface. No clouds means no light being bounced around our night sky.\nThe second reason is the Moon. On Tuesday we were in a \"new Moon\" phase. During a \"new Moon\" phase the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun and is not visible from Earth because the side of the Moon facing us is not being lit by the sun.\nTherefore we do not have any light at night from the Moon.\nOn Wednesday the Moon will start into the \"waxing crescent\" phase with 6% of the Moon's visible disk illuminated. The moon will rise at 8:26am and set at 8:28pm so what little light the \"waxing crescent\" will provide on Wednesday will be brief with the sun setting at 5:59pm.\nSo with clear skies in the forecast and the moon setting before 8:30pm expect the night skies to be a little darker than usual.\nCopyright 2012 by Post Newsweek.

The NRDC cited Utah as one of 20 states, plus Washington, D.C., with populations especially hard hit by extended and sweltering heat waves. Heat stress, the report said, currently causes almost 250 emergency room visits per year in the state.\nExtreme heat days, according to the study, are those days between June 1 to Aug. 31 with peak temperatures hotter than 90 percent of the rest of the days that summer. The NRDC analysis found 11 of Utah’s 29 counties have experienced more than five additional extreme heat days on average each summer over the past 10 years — including the population centers of Washington, Utah and Cache counties.\nThe NRDC report broadly aligns with findings of federal agencies, including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA has noted that unusually hot summer days have occurred more often in the past few decades, while hot summer nights are going up at an even faster rate. Meanwhile, unusually cold winter temperatures have become less common since the 1980s.\nThe trend is taking a toll on health, with heat killing more Americans than any other type of extreme weather, experts said in a conference call tied to the study’s release. They urged action by health departments and municipalities to combat those health effects — while stressing the importance of cutting emissions contributing to climate change.\n“If we keep pouring climate pollutants such as carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, we will face a level of global warming in which our best efforts will be inadequate to prevent adverse impacts of heat on our health,” said Linda Rudolph, director for the Center for Climate Change and Health at the California-based nonprofit Public Health Institute.\nRudolph said low-income families living in so-called “urban heat islands” — areas with lots of concrete and few cooling green spaces — are most vulnerable as the number of extreme heat days increase. They may be unable to afford air conditioning and have aged family members unable to reach a community cooling station.\n“The elderly are least able to compensate for high ambient temperature and are at greatest risk from extreme heat,” said Samantha Ahdoot, an assistant professor of pediatrics at Virginia Commonwealth University.\nBut infants are also at risk, as well as young athletes practicing outside in the midsummer heat.\nAhdoot recalled treating a 15-year-old football player who complained of leg pain that had spread to his back during a hot day of football practice. It turned out the youth had suffered “severe heat illness,” Ahdoot said, with muscle breakdown and kidney injuries. He was treated for three days with IV fluids at the hospital.\nAnd it was not an isolated case, she said. One 2011 study in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine found the number of exercise-related heat injuries in the U.S. doubled between 1997 and 2006.\n“It’s important we recognize the vulnerabilities of these groups so that we can protect them,” Ahdoot said.\nExperts urged cities to consider adding more green spaces, as well as cooler road and roof surfaces to combat urban heat islands. And while repeatedly stressing the importance of reducing climate emissions, they also called for early warning systems for high-heat days and adding more cooling centers for vulnerable groups.\nThe report noted through August, 2017 has been the third-hottest year on record in the continental U.S. And 2016 was the second-warmest on average for the U.S., according to NOAA data, just behind 2012.\nIn Utah, average temperatures have climbed almost 2 degrees since the early 1990s. And if carbon pollution levels continue to rise at their current pace globally, average temperatures in the state could be 13 degrees higher than the historical averages by the end of the century, the NRDC said.\n“[T]he state does not have a climate adaptation plan to prepare for the health impacts of more extreme heat,” the report said. “Utah needs to do more to protect the health of state residents from the threat of climate change.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Howling winds sped through empty streets, toppling trees and collapsing a high-rise construction crane.\nThe storm, called Mangkhut, has packed sustained winds as high as 170 miles an hour, equivalent to a Category 5 hurricane, according to the U.S. military’s joint Typhoon Warning Center. That was about twice the 90 mph winds generated by Hurricane Florence, which struck the U.S.\nMangkhut, which is the Thai word for the purple mangosteen fruit, diminished some as it crossed the South China Sea toward Hong Kong. Authorities downgraded it to severe typhoon from supertyphoon. Its estimated sustained winds remained around 100 mph, enough to warrant Hong Kong’s No. 10 hurricane warning, its maximum.\nAcross the former British colony, accustomed to getting slammed by multiple typhoons a year, people hunkered down to wait out the storm expected to elevate coastal waters by up to 13 feet in some places.\nFlooding forced some villagers to evacuate low-lying areas in Hong Kong’s more rural New Territories. Adding to flood warnings, heavy rains at one point were falling at a rate of around 4 inches an hour, authorities said.\nIn video images, surging brown waves choked with debris sloshed across what were sun-drenched sandy beaches packed with sunbathers just a day earlier.\nVideo of a crane collapsing on an under-construction high rise in Hong Kong’s Kowloon region circulated on social media. High winds bent trees like bows.\nAirlines canceled flights, and authorities warned some seven million Hong Kongers to remain inside. In normally safe coves, power boats anchored for safety capsized. At the city’s luxury marinas, yachts strained against tie lines.\nReports from around Hong Kong included broken windows from high-rise buildings, roofs ripped off small dwellings and trees toppled onto cars.\nIn the New Territories seaside village of Sheung Sze Wan, waves lapped at the first row of houses, normally several feet above sea level. A silver automobile, once parked on the street there, bobbed in the waves along with capsized boats and kayaks.\nMacau, the regional gambling center of hotels to the west of Hong Kong, is also facing the storm. Officials there were seeking to prevent a repeat of last year, when a severe typhoon that swept through the city killed nine, sparking criticism that city leaders and hotels had been poorly prepared for its severity.\nThis time around, gambling was suspended before the storm hit.\nPhotographs depicted severe flooding in Macau’s inner-harbor section, with dark green seawater reaching about halfway up storefronts at street level.\nOn the coast of mainland China, two nuclear-power stations, Yangjiang and Taishan, appear to be directly in the storm’s path. Officials at the Yangjiang Nuclear Power Station, which went into operation in 2014, said on social media that they were “combat ready” to defend it.\nWith the storm having departed the Philippines, emergency workers were beginning to take stock of the devastation.\nThe death toll reached 25 by Sunday, according to a government official coordinating rescue efforts. Local media reported that among those killed was a young girl. Taiwanese authorities said a person there had been swept away by waves.\nEven so, a sense of relief spread across the Philippines, which was spared a direct hit by the storm and may have benefited from improved preparedness.\nFive years ago, a storm killed some 6,300 people and sparked criticism that emergency authorities had failed to get ready.\nThis time, days of evacuations and stockpiling of supplies appeared to have paid off, though more than 64,000 people were taking shelter in evacuation centers while officials began clearing debris from access roads. Some communities were cut off from electricity and communications more than 12 hours after the storm hit.\nMangkhut, known in the Philippines as Ompong, made landfall at 1:40 a.m. local time Saturday in the province of Cagayan, an area about 230 miles north of Manila that is accustomed to annual typhoons that sweep over the country on their way to southern China.\nWhile thousands of people were stranded by the storm, there were no immediate signs of the anticipated 20-foot storm surge—the giant wave whipped up by strong winds that is often the most destructive part of a typhoon.\nFootage posted on social media by people in the affected area showed felled trees, damaged buildings and rain pelting deserted streets as evacuees huddled in emergency shelters. Branches and debris littered the roads.\nOfficials had prepared for winds strong enough to rip the roofs from the traditional wood-and-thatch houses that shelter many of the four million people in this poor rural part of the country. In the days before the storm hit, residents reinforced weaker structures by repairing roofs and fittings, and farmers harvested crops early to avoid losing them.\nEmergency evacuations took place across the northern provinces in the days ahead of landfall. Airports were closed, and disaster teams prepared evacuation centers in public buildings such as schools, where classes have been suspended.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Widespread flooding caused Gov. Jan Brewer is declare “a statewide emergency for areas impacted by today’s severe rainfall and flooding.”\nIn addition, Phoenix Mayor Greg Stanton declared a state of emergency for the city, activating the Emergency Operations Center.\n“We are seeing a historic amount of rain and significant flooding, and I’m proud of how quickly the city responded to keep our residents safe and up to date on what’s happening,” Stanton said. “Our emergency management team will work around the clock to monitor the situation and deploy the necessary resources to areas of our community hit the hardest.”\nThe National Weather Service issued a Flash Flood Warning that was in effect until 4:45 a.m. The agency later extended it to 6:30 a.m., and then again until 10:30 a.m. The NWS finally canceled that warning shortly before it was set to expire.\nGov. Brewer has declared a statewide emergency for areas impacted by severe rainfall and flooding on Monday.\nRain gauges across the Phoenix area indicated as much as 1 to 3 inches of rain has fallen in some areas.\nThe official rainfall total at Sky Harbor International Airport was more than 3 inches and increasing at 9 a.m., shattering the old daily record of 1.33 inches. That is an all-time record for rain in a single day at Sky Harbor.\n“We’re looking at a historic day of flooding out there,” 3TV meteorologist April Warnecke said.\nLess than 24 hours ago, the Valley was well behind on its year-to-day rainfall. With Monday’s storm, we have not only caught up, we are now officially ahead, and the rain continues to come down.\nFlash flooding has been observed throughout the Valley metro area, including on several freeways.\nInterstate 10 and 43rd Avenue was one of the worst sites. The water was so high, dozens of drivers were forced to abandon their cars. Water was up to the brake lights on many of those vehicles.\nState Route 51 flooded where the freeway dips below the Cactus Road underpass. Traffic in both directions was forced off the freeway, but allowed to re-enter both north and south of Cactus Road.\nThe Superstition Freeway was flooded at Val Vista Drive with water up to the hoods of some vehicles, according to Public Information Officer Raul Garcia with the Arizona Department of Public Safety.\nA representative from AAA Arizona said the organization was inundated with calls for help Monday morning.\n“Compared to a typical Monday morning, we’ve received 60 percent more calls for roadside assistance due to inclement weather,” said John Walter, director of automotive and fleet operations for AAA Arizona. “We’ve got our entire fleet out there getting to our members as soon as safely possible. Unfortunately, this weather has caused delays for us, too.”\nSalt River Project and Arizona Public Service were reporting thousands of homes and businesses without electricity due to the weather. The outages were from San Tan Valley to northwest Phoenix.\nIn addition to numerous school delays and closures, some government offices were advising people to postpone visits if possible.\n“Due to the widespread flooding issues throughout the Phoenix metro area, the Department of Economic Security is requesting consumers delay visits to DES offices until further notice,” read an email sent to the 3TV and azfamily.com newsroom. “In the meantime, services can be accessed through the DES website at www.azdes.gov.”\nIn addition, Brewer advised non-essential state employees to stay home.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

W.; Osborn, J.; Dhillon, V. S.\nAtmospheric scintillation caused by optical turbulence in the Earth's atmosphere can be the dominant source of noise in ground-based photometric observations of bright targets, which is a particular concern for ground-based exoplanet transit photometry. We demonstrate the implications of atmospheric scintillation for exoplanet transit photometry through contemporaneous turbulence profiling and transit observations. We find a strong correlation between measured intensity variations and scintillation determined through optical turbulence profiling. This correlation indicates that turbulence profiling can be used to accurately model the amount of scintillation noise present in photometric observations on another telescope at the same site. We examine the conditions under which scintillation correction would be beneficial for transit photometry through turbulence profiling, and find that for the atmosphere of La Palma, scintillation dominates for bright targets of magnitude above V ̃ 10.1 mag for a 0.5 m telescope, and at V ̃ 11.7 mag for a 4.2 m telescope under median atmospheric conditions. Through Markov-chain Monte Carlo methods we examine the effect of scintillation noise on the uncertainty of the measured exoplanet parameters, and determine the regimes where scintillation correction is especially beneficial. The ability to model the amount of noise in observations due to scintillation, given an understanding of the atmosphere, is a crucial test for our understanding of scintillation and the overall noise budget of our observations.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

To see when the leaves outside your window will be at their most brilliant, check out this map for the 2018 season from SmokyMountains.com.\nThe tourism website puts together this annual interactive visual by pulling historical weather data and forecasts for the upcoming months from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration as well as historical leaf peak trends. By using the slider at the bottom of the map, you can see when fall foliage is expected to peak across the contiguous United States.\nAs of September 10, for example, most of the country was rendered in green, which meant the leaves had not started to change yet. Move just a week or two ahead into mid-September, however, and the northern and central states show up with blotches of fall colors, with the lightest shade of yellow indicating minimal leaf change and deep red signaling peak foliage. By early November, most of the U.S. is brown, which means the leaves have passed their peak.\nWhile the leaves of deciduous trees start to change hues at roughly the same time each year, the exact patterns vary based on factors like rain and temperature.\n\"Although simply entering rainfall, temperature data, elevations, and other data points into a model will never be 100 percent accurate, this combined with our proprietary, historical data drives our model to become more accurate each year,\" says SmokyMountains.com co-founder and CTO Wes Melton, who created the map.\nNow that you know when exactly the trees will hit their peak, you need to make sure you’re around to see them.

They are part of a science program called the Pacific Equatorial Age Transect (PEAT). While aboard the JOIDES Resolution, the scientists will be drilling into the crust of the Pacific tectonic plate along the equator in order to gather sediments from the ocean floor that can give them a record of the Cenozoic Era (from 65.5 million years ago to the present).\nThe scientists believe the results they get from their research will give them a clearer understanding of the Earth's past climate, which is vital to knowing what the climate will be in the future.\nThe equatorial Pacific is a complex region that impacts the Earth's climate in many ways. This region is affected by solar warming and is one of the main regions where carbon dioxide transfers from the deep ocean to the atmosphere. The equatorial Pacific is also where the El Niño-Southern Oscillation begins.\nOver the last 55 million years, global climate has varied dramatically from extreme warmth to glacial cold. These climate variations have been recorded in the ocean sediments on the ocean floor of the equatorial Pacific. Information from these expeditions will help scientists understand how Earth was able to maintain very warm climates relative to the 20th century, even though solar radiation received at the Earth's surface has remained nearly constant for the last 55 million years.\nYou might also be interested in:\nThe main force that shapes our planet's surface over long amounts of time is the movement of Earth's outer layer by the process of plate tectonics.

Northern sky watchers are seeing auroras anyway. John Ashley sends this picture from Polebridge, Montana:\nphoto John Ashley\n\"Northern lights put in a brief appearance before moonrise this morning over northwestern Montana,\" reports Ashley. \"Light beams over Glacier National Park reflected nicely in the icy North Fork River at a balmy -4 degrees F.\"\n\"The lights were visible for less than an hour,\" he says, \"faint enough that I could not detect any color with my old eyes. My camera was more effective, picking up yellow and magenta, but interestingly none of our most common color, green.\"\nTo photograph these faint but lovely auroras, Ashley used a Nikon D750 digital camera set at ISO 3200 (f2.5) for a 25 second exposure.

The storm cloud was originally expected to reach Earth on Jan. 3rd, but it is approaching us more slowly than previously thought.

It appears to have missed, sailing wide of our planet. As a result, NOAA forecasters have downgraded the chance of a geomagnetic storm on Jan. 5th to 25%.\n...BUT A STORM IS COMING ANYWAY:A broad hole has opened up in the sun's atmosphere, and it is spewing solar wind toward Earth. This is called a \"coronal hole.\" It is the deep blue-colored region in this extreme UV image from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory:\nCoronal holes are places in the sun's atmosphere where the sun's magnetic field opens up and allows solar wind to escape. White arrows indicate solar wind plasma flowing into space.\nA stream of solar wind flowing from this coronal hole could reach Earth as early as Jan. 6th. According to NOAA forecasters, there is a 60% chance of G1-classgeomagnetic storms when the solar wind arrives. High-latitude sky watchers should be alert for auroras on Jan. 6-7.\nik volg het dagelijks.\nEdit Joyce. Ik idem dito . Ik heb de link even aanklikbaar gemaakt. | Gewijzigd: 7 januari 2016, 01:09 uur, door Justin\nLast night, Jan. 7-8, a display of auroras appeared over Kvaløya, Norway. It was so large, photographer Anne Birgitte Fyhn had to take 8 pictures to capture the whole thing. Click to view the complete panorama:\nphotographer Anne Birgitte Fyhn\n\"The coldest day this winter gave us an evening with clear skies and magnificent auroras,\" says Fyhn. \"The show was worth my cold toes.\"\nThe display was caused by a high-speed stream of solar wind, now buffeting Earth's magnetic field. Earth will probably remain inside the stream for another ~24 hours, so more auroras are in the offing.\nBron:http://www.spaceweather.com/ | Gewijzigd: 31 januari 2017, 15:29 uur, door Joyce.s\nLast night in Muonio, Finland, Antti Pietikäinen hiked out onto the frozen surface of the River Muonio to get away from glaring city lights. \"I was trying to get a better view of the auroras,\" he says. Turns out, he got a great view of both:\nphoto: Antti Pietikäinen\n\"I had a rare shot with auroras and light pillars in the same image,\" says Pietikäinen.\nLight pillars are a common sight around northern cities in winter. Urban lights bounce off ice crystals in the air, producing tall luminous columns sometimes mistaken for auroras.\n\"The night air was filled with ice crystals as the temperature dropped to -35 C,\" he says. \"This created stunning light pillars on top of the Hotel Harriniva. The funny crater in the foreground is because the ice has frozen unevenly in the river, creating a small pond that overflows water regularly. Water with slush freezes on top heightening the crater walls.\"\n\"It's quite nice to live in the aurora zone,\" says Pietikäinen, \"every evening is different.\"\nBron: http://www.spaceweather.com/ | Gewijzigd: 31 januari 2017, 15:25 uur, door Joyce.s\nPlasma tornado:Solar activity is low, but it is not zero. On Jan. 24th, a curled plume of magnetized plasma near the sun's southeastern limb untwisted itself and exploded. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory recorded the tornado action:\nThe mouth of the twister was wide enough to swallow two planets Earth. As powerful as the storm was, however, it was overcome by the gravity of the sun. Debris from the helical explosion fell back to the stellar surface and did not form a CME\nBron:http://www.spaceweather.com/ | Gewijzigd: 26 januari 2016, 09:28 uur, door Joyce.s\nMagnetic eruption on the sun:A filament of magnetism snaking across the sun's southern hemisphere erupted on Jan. 26th (~1800 UT) and hurled a part of itself into space. Click to play a beautiful movie of the event recorded by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory:\nDebris flying away from the blast site ripped through the sun's atmosphere and created a coronal mass ejection (CME). Newly-arriving coronagraph imagery suggests that the CME will not hit Earth. However, this preliminary conclusion could be overturned by further analysis, so stay tuned.\nLarge ProminenceA large plasma structure known as a prominence is putting on a show for solar observers on Saturday. The prominence is located off the southeast limb and could liftoff during the next several hours. These events can sometimes lead to bright coronal mass ejections, however due to the non geoeffective position, would likely be directed away from Earth. Still a nice looking solar feature on an otherwise quiet day!\nSolar activity is very low. Nevertheless, sky watchers around the Arctic Circle are reporting Northern Lights. \"I just saw the brightest and fastest-moving aurora I've seen in the past 4 years,\" says Oliver Wright of Abisko, Sweden. The auroras were so intense, they could be seen through heavy clouds:\nphoto Oliver Wright\n\"With solar activity so low, what triggered this amazing display?\" asks Wright.\nAnswer: The interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) near Earth has tipped south, opening a crack in Earth's magnetosphere. Solar wind is pouring in to fuel the display. Arctic sky watchers should remain alert for more auroras on Jan. 31-Feb. 1st.\nBron: http://www.spaceweather.com/ | Gewijzigd: 31 januari 2017, 15:26 uur, door Joyce.s\nGreen ReindeerLast night, Feb. 5th, not far from Skulsfjord, Norway, the snowy landscape turned green when a bright band of auroras stretched across the sky. \"A small reindeer came to investigate me and my camera while I was photographing the beautiful scene,\" says Terence Murtagh. The reindeer looked a bit green, too:\nphoto Terence Murtagh\nThe display was caused by a stream of solar wind pressing against Earth's magnetic field. Earth is expected to exit the stream on Feb. 6th, so the lights should subside later today.\nThe next outburst of auroras could come on Feb. 8th when Earth crosses through a fold in the heliospheric current sheet--a so-called \"solar sector boundary crossing.\" NOAA estimates a 40% chance of polar geomagnetic storms when the crossing occurs.\nBron:http://www.spaceweather.com/ | Gewijzigd: 31 januari 2017, 15:27 uur, door Joyce.s\nDe verwachtte cme is dan toch gearriveerd\nMet als resultaat een G2 klasse storm, die weer de volgende beelden geeft:\nhttp://www.spaceweather.com/images2016/16feb16/strand_strip.jpg | Gewijzigd: 31 januari 2017, 15:27 uur, door Joyce.s\nPrachtige aurora borealis:Earth is slowly exiting a solar wind stream that has sparked bright auroras around the Arctic Circle for the past three days. \"On Feb. 17th, the auroras lasted all night long,\" reports Sacha Layos of Fairbanks, Alaska. This, she says, was the highlight:\nphoto Sacha Layos\n\"The outburst lasted less than 4 minutes,\" says Layos. \"It was magnificent.\"\nWhat makes this solar wind stream such a prolific producer of auroras? The answer lies in its magnetic field. Forecasters call it a \"negative polarity stream.\" In other words, the magnetic field of the solar wind tends to point in a direction which opposes Earth's magnetic field: North vs. South. This mismatch opens a crack in our planet's magnetosphere. Solar wind pours in to fuel bright Northern Lights.\nThe odds of auroras are declining as Earth exits the solar wind stream. NOAA forecasters estimate a 50% chance of geomagnetic storms today, declining to 30% on Feb. 20th.\nBron: http://www.spaceweather.com/ | Gewijzigd: 31 januari 2017, 15:29 uur, door Joyce.s\n23 en 24 februari wordt de aarde belaagd met zonnedeeltjes: Aurora'sEarth is exiting a stream of solar wind that produced an outburst of auroras on Feb. 16th through 18th. Good news for photographers: The next stream of solar wind is already on the way. It is flowing from this coronal hole, photographed today by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory.\nCoronal holes are places in the sun's outer atmosphere (or \"corona\") where the sun's magnetic field opens up and allows solar wind to escape. The flow of solar wind along \"open field lines\" is indicated by white arrows in the false-color image above.\nCoronal holes are not rare. They open up several times each month. Solar wind flowing from this particular hole could reach Earth on Feb. 23-24. Arctic sky watchers should be alert for auroras on those dates.\nWel aurora's, maar geen cme impact. Dit is de oorzaak:There was no geomagnetic storm last night, but sometimes geomagnetic storms are not required for bright auroras. \"On Feb. 23rd we witnessed a mind-glowingly beautiful display,\" reports aurora tour guide Sarah Skinner of Abisko, Sweden. \"At first the auroras were faint. Gradually they increased in intensity until--BOOM!--the sky was filled was rapidly dancing lights.\"\n\"The shapes and colours were amazing,\" continues Skinner. \"Guests literally screamed with excitement, as did I!\"\nThe cause of the outburst was not a CME or other solar storm. Instead, the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) near Earth tilted south. This gentle event openeda crack in Earth's magnetosphere. Solar wind poured in to fuel the display.\nMore auroras are in the offing. A solar wind stream is expected to hit Earth's magnetic field on Feb. 25th. The impact could spark a G1-class geomagnetic storm around the Arctic Circle and--BOOM!--another display\nEen uitgebreide uitleg hoe de IMF werkt:The Sun is a big magnet.\nDuring solar minimum the Sun's magnetic field, like Earth's, resembles that of an iron bar magnet, with great closed loops near the equator and open field lines near the poles. Scientists call such a field a \"dipole.\" The Sun's dipolar field is about as strong as a refrigerator magnet, or 50 gauss. Earth's magnetic field is 100 times weaker.\nDuring the years around solar maximum (2000 and 2001 are good examples) spots pepper the face of the Sun. Sunspots are places where intense magnetic loops -- hundreds of times stronger than the ambient dipole field -- poke through the photosphere. Sunspot magnetic fields overwhelm the underlying dipole; as a result, the Sun's magnetic field near the surface of the star becomes tangled and complicated.\nThe Sun's magnetic field isn't confined to the immediate vicinity of our star. The solar wind carries it throughout the solar system. Out among the planets we call the Sun's magnetic field the \"Interplanetary Magnetic Field\" or \"IMF.\" Because the Sun rotates (once every 27 days) the IMF has a spiral shape -- named the \"Parker spiral\" after the scientist who first described it.\nAbove: Steve Suess (NASA/MSFC) prepared this figure, which shows the Sun's spiraling magnetic field from a vantage point ~100 AU from the Sun.\nEarth has a magnetic field, too. It forms a bubble around our planet called the magnetosphere, which deflects solar wind gusts. (Mars, which does not have a protective magnetosphere, has lost much of its atmosphere as a result of solar wind erosion.) Earth's magnetic field and the IMF come into contact at the magnetopause: a place where the magnetosphere meets the solar wind. Earth's magnetic field points north at the magnetopause. If the IMF points south -- a condition scientists call \"southward Bz\" -- then the IMF can partially cancel Earth's magnetic field at the point of contact.\n\"When Bz is south, that is, opposite Earth's magnetic field, the two fields link up,\" explains Christopher Russell, a Professor of Geophysics and Space Physics at UCLA. \"You can then follow a field line from Earth directly into the solar wind\" -- or from the solar wind to Earth. South-pointing Bz's open a door through which energy from the solar wind can reach Earth's atmosphere!\nSouthward Bz's often herald widespread auroras, triggered by solar wind gusts or coronal mass ejections that are able to inject energy into our planet's magnetosphere.\nCir hits earth, sparks aurora's:Pi Day ended with an explosion of color. During the late hours of March 14th (3.14), a co-rotating interaction region (CIR) hit Earth's magnetic field, sparking bright auroras around the Arctic Circle. Sarah Skinner photographed the display from Abisko, Sweden:\nAfter a rainy day, the clouds broke. Nothing could have prepared me for the colors I was then about to witness!!\" says Skinner. \"As the aurora developed the most intense reds I have ever seen appeared. Reds, purples, greens, so many colors; I could not believe what I was seeing.\"\nCIRs are transition zones between slow- and fast-moving solar wind streams. Solar wind plasma piles up in these regions, producing density gradients and shock waves that tend to ignite auroras when they strike Earth's magnetic field.\nThe CIR has passed, but more lights are in the offing. Earth is moving into a stream of high-speed solar wind following behind the CIR. In response, NOAA forecasters say there is a 65% chance of polar geomagnetic storms on March 15th.\nDe afgelopen dagen werd de aarde weer belaagd door zonnedeeltjes, met prachtige aurora's tot gevolg:\nSOLAR WIND SPARKS AURORAS:\nFor the past three days, a stream of solar wind has been buffeting Earth's magnetic field, causing intermittent G1-classgeomagnetic storms around the Arctic Circle. On March 15th, Didier Van Hellemont of Luosto, Finland, looked up at just the right moment and saw this:\nphoto Didier Van Hellemont\nThis is called a \"corona\"--a spray of colorful lights seen by observers who look straight up into the folds of auroral curtains. \"There were no less than 6 corona events that night!\" says Van Hellemont. \"This spectacular specimen showed a lot of movement. It was fantastic.\"\nThe stream of solar wind which caused the display has been especially effective at sparking auroras. The reason: Magnetic fields inside the stream have a negative polarity. This means they can link to Earth's magnetic field, opening a crack in our planet's magnetosphere and allowing solar wind inside. Auroras inevitably follow.\nNOAA forecasters estimate a 40% chance of additional G1-class geomagnetic storms on March 18th as the solar wind continues to blow.\n| Gewijzigd: 31 januari 2017, 15:30 uur, door Joyce.s\nLente aurora'sSPRING IS AURORA SEASON: Northern Spring has arrived. To know this is true, one only has to look at the night sky over Alaska. Why? Because Spring is aurora season. Dirk Obudzinski sends this picture, taken March 19th, from Fox, Alaska:\nphoto Dirk Obudzinski\n\"The auroras were brighter than the surrounding moonlit clouds,\" says Obudzinski. \"It was a fantastic display despite most geomagnetic predictions signaling quiet conditions for last night. You just never know!\"\nIndeed, this is the time of year when you just never know. For reasons that are only partially understood, the weeks around equinoxes favor geomagnetic storms. Even a gentle gust of solar wind can spark a magnificent display. Stay tuned to the photo gallery for more Spring Green.\nBron: http://www.spaceweather.com/ | Gewijzigd: 31 januari 2017, 15:31 uur, door Joyce.s\nAurora's afgelopen weekendA solar wind stream hit Earth's magnetic field on April 2nd, sparking a G2-class geomagnetic storm and bright auroras around the Arctic Circle. Göran Strand photographed the outburst of lights over Östersund, Sweden:\n\"This is an all-sky photo showing the entire sky at 23:19 UT on April 2nd,\" says Strand. \"Northern Lights were everywhere!\"\nIn high latitude places like Sweden, spring twilight is beginning to intrude on the midnight sky, making auroras increasingly difficult to see. \"Aurora season is quickly running out,\" laments Strand. \" I hope to see some more before the bright nights return.\"\nHe may get his wish. Another stream of solar wind is on the way, due to reach Earth on April 5th. Moreover, the incoming stream is filled with \"negative polarity\" magnetic fields. Such fields can easily link to Earth's magnetic field, opening a crack in our planet's defenses against solar wind. This sets the stage for a new round of Arctic lights early this week.\nGeomagnetische storm, met aurora's als gevolg\nOn April 7th, Earth crossed a fold in the heliospheric current sheet, plunging our planet into a region of space filled with \"negative-polarity\" magnetic fields. This sparked a G1-class geomagnetic storm and bright auroras around the Arctic Circle. \"Suddenly, the sky exploded in color,\" reports Janne Maj Nagelsen, who took this picture from Stamnes, Vaksdal, Norway:\n\"I've waited for so many years to take this picture, because the Northern Lights has never been high enough in the sky before,\" says Nagelsen. \"It was amazing.\"\nMany people have never heard of the heliospheric current sheet. It is one of the biggest things in the solar system--a vast undulating system of electrical currents shaped like the skirt of a ballerina: picture. Earth dips in and out of it all the time.\nNOAA forecasters estimate a 55% chance of continued storming on April 8th as Earth slowly exits this region of space. High-latitude sky watchers should remain alert for auroras.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The tornado lifted before exiting Granite Falls, leaving the most concentrated damage path two miles long, and 500 feet wide, through a primarily residential area of Granite Falls. Most of the damage in Granite Falls was caused by F2 to F3 wind speeds. However, this tornado has been classified as a minimal F4 tornado, based on the twisted wreckage of an overturned railroad car near the intersection of 9th Avenue and 14th street in Granite Falls.

The tornado was produced minor crop damage northeast of Swift Falls. EPISODE NARRATIVE: A strong cold front, deep moisture and a high shear environment led to severe weather across portions of central Minnesota late Tuesday afternoon and evening of July 14th. Several individual storms developed across west central Minnesota and moved quickly northeast and spawned three tornadoes near Swift Falls, Elrosa and Spicer, Minnesota. In addition, several strong thunderstorms tracked across northern Todd and far northwestern Morrison County where two to four inches of rain fell in a short period of time. Due to the highly moist environment, and high rainfall rates, several areas of urban flooding was reported. One was in the community of Staples, and another was in St. Cloud.|\n|47.2||1971-06-19||2||44°34'N / 96°52'W||0||0||3K||0||Deuel|\n|48.4||1954-08-15||2||45°25'N / 95°30'W||45°31'N / 95°24'W||7.90 Miles||33 Yards||0||0||25K||0||Swift|\n|48.8||1971-06-19||2||44°38'N / 97°06'W||44°22'N / 96°27'W||36.80 Miles||33 Yards||0||0||0K||0||Hamlin|\n|49.2||1984-04-26||2||45°46'N / 95°54'W||45°47'N / 95°53'W||1.00 Mile||800 Yards||0||0||2.5M||0||Stevens|\n|49.7||1971-06-19||2||44°27'N / 96°39'W||0||0||0K||0||Brookings|\n* The information on this page is based on the global volcano database, the U.S. earthquake database of 1638-1985, and the U.S. Tornado and Weather Extremes database of 1950-2010.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

We are talking, of course, about the Orionid meteor shower which will soon pass over our collective heads. This is a show consisting of shooting stars which will happen as the Earth will pass through the debris left behind by Halley’s Comet.\nAs you know, this comet travels around the Sun and on its way it leaves behind some meteoroids which collide with our planet’s atmosphere at about 148,000 mph. As soon as they enter our atmosphere they start to burn up, resulting in some streaks of light which can be viewed all across the night’s sky.\nThis means that we are used by now with it happening at the same time each year. This show is best visible during the 21st and 22nd of October, although you can still spot some shooting stars in the days before and after these dates. Actually, these meteoroids start burning up really early in the month and you can still see them as far as the 7th of November.\nGranted, the 21st of October represents the ultimate show, however, because of the Moon’s behavior, you might see a more spectacular show in the week before. That’s due to the Moon getting out of the way around the middle of October, making it easier for the Orionids to shine brighter.\nThe most intense time will be when you will see about 20 meteors streaking across the sky. For a meteor shower, this is relatively mute, especially when compared to the other annual shows, such as the Perseides. Still, you would still more than likely enjoy it. Also, what they lack in quantity they make up in quality, as they are known to burn really bright.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Higher elevations are likely to see greater accumulation, perhaps 10 inches or more.\nA winter storm warning is in effect from 7 p.m. today until 7 p.m. Thursday.\nWith the storm already dropping record snow in the Southern Plains and Ohio Valley, the Greene County Highway Department was busy today preparing for action.\n“All of our sand and salt sheds are filled and our trucks are ready to go,” said Superintendent Gary Harvey. “It’s winter in the Northeast— it snows. So, we’re prepared.”\nA mild winter last year saved the department on fuel and materials, but Harvey’s not anticipating a repeat. While the area hasn’t seen any significant snowfall yet, Harvey notes, “It’s still early.”\nIn an average winter, Harvey estimates that the county uses about 10 to 15 thousand tons of salt and sand. In the village of Catskill alone, the highway department uses some 50 to 100 tons per storm, for a total of about 900 tons a year, according to Catskill Village Highway Department Superintendent Lewis O’Connor.\nCrews will likely be busy into Thursday, as forecasts call for a wintery mix late into the day, turning to snow after 3 p.m., though little new accumulation is expected.\nThe New York State Department of Motor Vehicles recommends carrying emergency supplies in your vehicle, including a shovel, sand, ice scraper, portable radio, flashlight, blankets and extra warm clothes. They also recommend carrying a charged cell phone, maintaining a safe distance from other vehicles, and scheduling extra time for slower driving.\nTo reach reporter Kyle Adams, call 518-943-2100, ext. 3323, or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.org","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Ramanathan and University of Iowa chemical engineer Greg Carmichael, said that soot and other forms of black carbon could have as much as 60 percent of the current global warming effect of carbon dioxide, more than that of any greenhouse gas besides CO2. The researchers also noted, however, that mitigation would have immediate societal benefits in addition to the long term effect of reducing greenhouse gas emissions.\nThe article, “Global and regional climate changes due to black carbon,” will be posted in the online version of Nature Geoscience on Sunday, March 23.\n“Observationally based studies such as ours are converging on the same large magnitude of black carbon heating as modeling studies from Stanford, Caltech and NASA,” said Ramanathan. “We now have to examine if black carbon is also having a large role in the retreat of arctic sea ice and Himalayan glaciers as suggested by recent studies.”\nIn the paper, Ramanathan and Carmichael integrated observed data from satellites, aircraft and surface instruments about the warming effect of black carbon and found that its forcing, or warming effect in the atmosphere, is about 0.9 watts per meter squared. That compares to estimates of between 0.2 watts per meter squared and 0.4 watts per meter squared that were agreed upon as a consensus estimate in a report released last year by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a U.N.-sponsored agency that periodically synthesizes the body of climate change research.\nRamanathan and Carmichael said the conservative estimates are based on widely used computer model simulations that do not take into account the amplification of black carbon’s warming effect when mixed with other aerosols such as sulfates. The models also do not adequately represent the full range of altitudes at which the warming effect occurs. The most recent observations, in contrast, have found significant black carbon warming effects at altitudes in the range of 2 kilometers (6,500 feet), levels at which black carbon particles absorb not only sunlight but also solar energy reflected by clouds at lower altitudes.\nBetween 25 and 35 percent of black carbon in the global atmosphere comes from China and India, emitted from the burning of wood and cow dung in household cooking and through the use of coal to heat homes. Countries in Europe and elsewhere that rely heavily on diesel fuel for transportation also contribute large amounts.\n“Per capita emissions of black carbon from the United States and some European countries are still comparable to those from south Asia and east Asia,” Ramanathan said.\nIn south Asia, pollution often forms a prevalent brownish haze that has been termed the “atmospheric brown cloud.” Ramanathan’s previous research has indicated that the warming effects of this smog appear to be accelerating the melt of Himalayan glaciers that provide billions of people throughout Asia with drinking water. In addition, the inhalation of smoke during indoor cooking has been linked to the deaths of an estimated 400,000 women and children in south and east Asia.\nElimination of black carbon, a contributor to global warming and a public health hazard, offers a nearly instant return on investment, the researchers said. Black carbon particles only remain airborne for weeks at most compared to carbon dioxide, which remains in the atmosphere for more than a century. In addition, technology that could substantially reduce black carbon emissions already exists in the form of commercially available products.\nRamanathan said that an observation program for which he is currently seeking corporate sponsorship could dramatically illustrate the benefits. Known as Project Surya, the proposed venture would provide some 20,000 rural Indian households with smoke-free cookers and equipped to transmit data. At the same time, a team of researchers led by Ramanathan would observe air pollution levels in the region to measure the effect of the cookers.\nCarmichael said he hopes that the paper’s presentation of the immediacy of the benefits will make it easier to generate political and regulatory momentum toward reduction of black carbon emissions.\n“It offers a chance to get better traction for implementing strategies for reducing black carbon,” he said.\nThe National Science Foundation, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration funded the review.\nPreservation of floodplains is flood protection\n27.09.2017 | Technische Universität München\nConservationists are sounding the alarm: parrots much more threatened than assumed\n15.09.2017 | Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen\nUniversity of Maryland researchers contribute to historic detection of gravitational waves and light created by event\nOn August 17, 2017, at 12:41:04 UTC, scientists made the first direct observation of a merger between two neutron stars--the dense, collapsed cores that remain...\nSeven new papers describe the first-ever detection of light from a gravitational wave source.

Airlines at each airport hope to resume normal operations late Monday.\nRichmond International Airport said on Twitter it had 111 canceled flights Sunday night and 36 Monday. Raleigh-Durham International Airport had 245 flights canceled Sunday evening, according to the airport’s website. Charlotte Douglas International Airport had more than 1,000 flights canceled Sunday, according to flight tracking website FlightAware.\nThousands of customers in the Appalachian region were still without power Sunday night, including 146,000 in North Carolina. Power outages also are affecting 81,000 in Virginia, 58,000 in South Carolina and about 10,000 in Tennessee.\nCNN meteorologist Pedram Javaheri said the storm is pulling away from the East Coast, but snow showers could remain until mid-afternoon Monday. After that, it’ll be dry and cold through Tuesday, he said.\nThe Appalachian region of the country received up to 24 inches of snow over the weekend, Javaheri said.\n“They kind of got the bull’s eye of the storm,” he said.\nWith the storm leaving, some areas will have lingering snow and freeze over, so it will be hard to travel, Javaheri said.\nTemperatures in the southeast and Appalachians will be 5-10 degrees below average on Monday and Tuesday mornings, he said.\nWeather-related death reported in North Carolina\nOne weather-related death was reported in North Carolina as a result of the snowstorm.\nPolice in Matthews, about 12 miles south of Charlotte, said a tree fell on a vehicle causing it to drive through the front lawn of a church until it hit the front of the building. The driver died and the passenger was taken to a hospital with minor injuries, police said.\nThe state had 500 vehicle accidents in an 11-hour period, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper said. One tractor-trailer ran off the road and into a river.\n“We’ve seen too many collisions,” Cooper said. “From Charlotte across central North Carolina, the biggest concern now is ice making roads even more dangerous.”\nIn Durham County, residents typically get about 6 inches of snow over an entire year. But on Sunday morning, they woke up to see 6 inches of snow on the ground.\n“The roads in Durham are treacherous and not safe for driving,” the Durham County Sheriff’s Office tweeted.\nThe Durham Sheriff’s Office also tweeted Sunday that drivers should be prepared for the unpredictable.\n“Another example of the unpredictable happening while driving in #winterweather. A chunk of ice fell from an overpass and cracked a deputy’s windshield. Thankfully he was ok. If you can’t stay home, stay alert. #ncwx #DurhamWeather,” the tweet read.\nEven before the storm hit, Cooper declared a statewide emergency. Grocery store shelves were cleared of bread, milk and other staples.\nCooper asked residents to check on vulnerable loved ones and the elderly, if possible. He said 11 emergency shelters have opened across the state.\nNorth Carolina Highway Patrol said anyone who must drive should leave twice as much following space as normal behind the next car, in case that vehicle loses control.\nVirginia extends winter storm warning\nA winter storm warning is in effect for most of Virginia until to 2 p.m. Monday, said CNN meteorologist Gene Norman.\nVirginia’s western and central areas were also hit with snow. The city of Richmond and surrounding areas received about 9 inches of snow, according to the National Weather Service in Wakefield, Virginia. Areas south of Richmond got 6 to 8 inches of snow, Norman said.\nLike its neighboring states to the south, Virginia also saw power outages for thousands, and dozens of vehicle crashes.\nAs of Sunday, there were more than 15,000 customers without power in the western part of the state, according to Appalachian Power. In the Richmond area, Dominion Energy said there were more than 13,000 without power.\nVirginia State Police reported nearly 60 crashes in Virginia because of the snow, with most crashes in the agency’s Richmond division.\n“The majority of the crashes involve only damage to vehicles. No traffic fatalities have been reported at this time,” Virginia State Police spokesperson Corinne Geller told CNN affiliate WTVR.\nVirginia Department of Transportation officials told WTVR Sunday that road crews were working 12-hour shifts until all roads were passable.\nRichmond International Airport reported Sunday that nearly 100 flights had been canceled, WTVR reported. One of those flights, a United Airlines flight to Denver, had passengers on the runway for hours.\nWTVR reported that the flight was supposed to leave at 8 a.m. Sunday, but passengers were stuck on the runway until 11 a.m. after officials said the weather worsened. After deboarding and reboarding the plane, passengers sat on the runway again for four more hours until they returned to the gate at 5 p.m. when the flight was officially canceled, WTVR reports. United officials apologized for the inconvenience.\n‘Ice is becoming a big problem’ in South Carolina\nIn South Carolina, a state known for palmettos rather than freezing rain, ice-covered roads were making driving conditions perilous.\nThe large Greenville-Spartanburg area received between 2 inches and more than a foot of snow, NWS reported Sunday.\n“Ice is becoming a big problem. Please stay off the roads,” Greenville County Emergency Management pleaded.\nThe local National Weather Service office had to adjust its forecast map Sunday after it became clear more ice was expected near Interstate 85.\n“We have increased our ice (accumulation) forecast quite a bit along the I-85 corridor,” the NWS Greenville-Spartanburg office said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Amazingly, these storms were all well above average, in some cases breaking city, state, or world records! We all know that when Alaska does snow, it does it well.\nWe’re aware that these uncertain times are limiting many aspects of life. While we continue to feature destinations that make our state wonderful, please take proper precautions or add them to your bucket list to see at a later date. If you know of a local business that could use some extra support during these times, please nominate them here:\n1. February 11th-12th, 1966 in Fairbanks, Alaska\nDuring less than a three day period, Fairbanks broke all of its previous records. It snowed a whopping 35 inches of snow! Even with city crews working over 24 hours a day, every day, it was difficult to keep up with the snowfall. In fact, they ran out of places to put the snow. To this day this storm holds Fairbank's city record as the most snow in a single storm.\n2. December-January 2012, in Cordova, Alaska\nCordova, Alaska was hit by what the locals were calling a \"Snowicane.\" Pummeled with over 18 feet of snow in the same amount of days, the city had to officially declare a state of emergency. The National Guard was called in to help remove snow from homes and roads. Many houses and business's roofs caved in, and at least one apartment building had to be evacuated!\n3. St Patrick's Day Snowstorm, 2002 in Anchorage, Alaska\nOn March 17th, 2002, Anchorage experienced a record breaking snowfall. Within 24 hours over 29 inches of snow fell on the largest city in Alaska. The snow fell at a rate of greater than 2 inches per hour at some times! However, even during this massive snowfall, Ted Stevens International Airport managed to stay open the entire time. A massive crew working 12 hour shifts managed to keep the 25 million square feet of asphalt clear enough for flights to continue to take off and land!\n4. December 6, 2017 in Thompson Pass, Alaska\nThompson Pass is the snowiest place in Alaska, coming in at over 500 inches of snow annually. So breaking records is something this place is good at! On December 6th, it broke world records of the most intense snowfall ever recorded, coming in at a crazy 15 inches of snow in just a short 90 minutes. By the end of this storm, there was 40 inches of snow in just twelve hours. Crews worked hard to keep the roads cleared!\n5. December-January, 2012 in Valdez Alaska\nAlthough Valdez, Alaska holds the title of \"Snowiest Place in the US\" averaging over 300 inches annually, the weather outdid itself during December-January of 2012. Locals called it \"Valdez Snowmageddon\", and by January 12th over 320 inches of snow were recorded that early in the season. That is almost 27 feet of snow. Locals, for the first time in decades, were concerned about their roofs collapsing. That winter Valdez children got their very first snow day in an incredibly long time!\nDo you remember any of these Alaskan winter storms?

Meanwhile emergency services are disappointed after a high number of breaches of the red alert during Severe Tropical Cyclone Christine.\nJust days after the high category three system battered the Pilbara bringing down a large number of trees and lifting some roofs, the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) is warning that there could be more to come.\nAndrew Burton is a Senior Forecaster at the BoM's Tropical Cyclone Warning Centre, and he's been looking at computer modelling that's indicating another cyclone may be just around the corner.\n\"We've got a week's respite... But the week after we could start to see things brewing again,\" he says.\nThe alert comes while chainsaws are still ringing out across Pilbara towns including Roebourne and Wickham, amidst clearing of a high number of trees knocked down by wind gusts of up to 170 kilometres per hour.\n\"The message is that people need to make sure they don't take their eye off the ball and they're ready for another cyclone from the middle of January onwards,\" Mr Burton says.\nThere have been a few surprises in the first half of a cyclone season forecast to be neutral and near-average.\nIt started with the first November cyclone in five years. Other than its early formation, Tropical Cyclone Alessia was un-noteworthy as a weak category one system that did not produce particularly heavy rainfall as it travelled the Kimberley coast before dissipating over the Northern Territory.\nTropical Cyclone Bruce formed off Java's west coast and briefly threatened Cocos Island before heading out of the Australian cyclone region to become a maximum intensity category five severe tropical cyclone. But as this took place in the West Indian Ocean basin, it attracted little attention.\nTropical Cyclone Christine formed north of Broome before making a beeline for Whim Creek on the Pilbara Coast between Port Hedland and Karratha, strengthening to a severe category three system as it travelled. The damage inflicted on the Pilbara was not as severe as some feared with mostly minor damage to buildings and trees knocked over.\nBut despite the incessant activity in what should be an average season, Andrew Burton says this doesn't mean it will be a quiet from now on.\n\"We talked about a risk of two cyclone crossings, one severe; the fact that we've had one severe crossing doesn't make the chance of having another one any less... So we still have a high risk of having another severe tropical cyclone crossing,\" he says.\nIn many ways the season is just getting started as the new year brings the months that produce the most cyclones as well as the strongest systems.\n\"We've come to the business-end of the season. The second half of the season is always busier than the first half... And it's also worth remembering that cyclones that come towards the end of the season actually have a higher chance overall of becoming severe tropical cyclones than those that are forming earlier in the season,\" Mr Burton says.\nBut for now the BoM will be working to pinpoint exactly what will be coming in ten days time for the North West.\n\"It's certainly too early to get specific, to even know where something might form, all we know is that activity will increase,\" says Mr Burton.\nWhile the BoM and the Department of Fire and Emergency Services (DFES) have mostly congratulated people in the Pilbara for being well prepared for Severe Tropical Cyclone Christine, there have also been concerns about people ignoring the red alert and putting themselves in harm's way.\nDFES Public Information Officer Les Hayter, says he was surprised to hear about people heading out onto the streets during red alert across three Pilbara towns.\n\"When they start venturing out of the front door and onto the street, then they're into the unknown, they really don't have any idea of what they're dealing with in a lot of cases... They're creating further hazards on the road, and we don't need them,\" Mr Hayter says.\nMany towns remained on red alert until at least midday following the midnight coast crossing of the cyclone. While this may have seemed overly cautious to some, Mr Hayter explains it is a critical time for ensuring public safety.\n\"I'm not just talking about SES personnel, I'm talking Horizon Power, water authority, Main Roads, all those people who have to make sure that your community is safe; we don't want you driving around making a further hazard for us to keep an eye on while we're trying to do our job,\" he says.\nListen to Les Hayter on Kimberley and North West WA Breakfast with Robert Mailer, and Andrew Burton talking to ABC Kimberley's Ben Collins.\n- Jim Beyer explains the plan to restart the Koolan Island iron ore mine\n- Mat Dear explains the proposed Ord River siphon\n- Robert Gray talks about imports of Indian mangoes\n- A look back at the history of Bidgemia Station and the McTaggart family\n- Soren Aandahl speaks to ABC Rural about his company's campaign against Quintis","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In the UK the Daily Mail reported:\nToxins emitted by Britain’s booming number of diesel cars are fuelling a health crisis that kills 40,000 people a year, a landmark report warns today.\nOwnership of diesel cars has more than trebled in the past 15 years – driven by misguided government tax incentives that identified diesel as a ‘green’ fuel.\nToday’s report by the Royal College of Physicians and the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health warns that the health impact of Britain’s air pollution is greater than previously thought. It calculates that 40,000 people in Britain die early each year because of outdoor air pollution, a significant increase on the previous estimate of 29,000.\nThe estimates are UK specific but the problem is worldwide and caused, allegedly, by the small particulates in vehicle emissions (especially diesel vehicles). The culprits appear to be PM10s and PM2.5s which are categories of small particulate matter grouped by their size.\nThis is a large number of deaths. In the UK it would be between 5% and 10% of all deaths. If the estimates are correct other countries with lots of vehicles will also have many deaths.\nSo are the estimates correct? Are large numbers of people in the developed world dying from particulate air pollution?\nNB air pollution worldwide is estimated to kill millions but most of this is caused indoors by wood and dung-burning fires. This question is specifically related to outdoor pollution caused by vehicle emissions.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The aircraft and engine makers thought they were immune until a few years ago when weird things began happening to some long distance high altitude flights.\nOne long range Airbus was reported as making a trans-polar flight from America to Asia “trapped” at 29,000 feet, which is too low for optimum fuel economy, yet if it had flown higher the temperatures would have reduced the available fuel by turning some of it to jelly.\nOther jets began making costly diversions or turn backs near the north pole sometimes landing at very expensive Siberian outposts like Irkutsk and Anadyr as they sought warmer air but paid for it by having to top up their tanks.\nCuriously, neither Airbus nor Boeing have yet published comprehensive data on how stratospheric air temperatures have declined in recent decades. But older pilots claim there are plenty of records taken during flights to show declines of as much as 20 C, which means if a jet works well at –47 C it may not work as expected at –67C, or the –75C experienced for hours on end by the British Airways jet before its engines failed to respond as intended before it fell short of its runway after a long idle throttle fuel saving descent to the airport.\nGet Crikey FREE to your inbox every weekday morning with the Crikey Worm.\nThe cynical, and perhaps correct explanation for this could be furious behind the scenes work with the engine makers to come up with procedures to continuously circulate fuel between tanks to prevent it turning to slush, and measures to heat out fine particles of previously undetectable atmospheric ice being sucked into those parts of the engines that aren’t normally hot when working.\nIn fact the cold jet-hot world problem might include the ingestion of particles of dry ice or solid carbon dioxide where the air is so cold this phenomenon could occur naturally.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

(WHEC) — For a long period of time, Rochester’s air has been very cold, and another surge of Arctic air is coming through this weekend.\nThat weather pattern isn’t set to change any time soon, so First Alert Meteorologist Glenn Johnson thought it would be interesting to take a look at the last time Rochester, specifically, the Frederick Douglass-Greater Rochester International Airport, came close to 70 degrees.\nThat was all the way back on Nov. 8, 2021, when it was 68 degrees. That was 13 weeks, or 91 days ago—not that Johnson is counting.\nSo maybe it is time for some California dreaming! Out west in Los Angeles all the way up through Fresno, San Francisco, and Sacramento, they are all talking about record amounts of warm weather over the next couple of days. Tuesday in Los Angeles it is going to be very close to 80 degrees.\nBut there are some downsides to that kind of warmth. They have an excessive heat watch that is in effect. The temperature going into the weekend could be anywhere from 85 to 90 degrees. And this time of the year the Santa Anna winds will be very gusty, maybe 30 to 50 miles per hour. And there is a small, but the significant threat of those wildfires.\nInteresting to note, we are coming up on the Super Bowl this Sunday. Of course, the game is on News10NBC. The last time that we had that kind of heat for a Super Bowl was in Los Angeles with 84 degrees going back to 1973.

BERYL looks to remain tropical storm strength until landfall.\nIt appears now that BERYLl will move inland near Brunswick, Georgia sometime late in the day Sunday, then move slowly westward before stalling around Valdosta sometime Monday.\nFOR NOW (and this really has not changed much since our first post early Friday morning), based on the data, trends and forecast, here's what we EXPECT IN THE WTVY-TV VIEWING AREA:\nWind effects will be minimal - 10 to 15 maximum with slightly higher gusts the farther east from Dothan you go.\nSlightly higher wind gusts also could be expected east of Apalachicola in the Big Bend area of Florida (Carabelle, Alligator Point for examples).\nThe potential for periods of heavy rain look to be far enough east of Dothan as to be out of our coverage area - more likely near and east of Valdosta and Tallahassee.\nPossible brief heavy showers RELATED TO BERYL could occur in our coverage area - but would be more likely east of Dothan - mainly southwest Georgia and areas of the Florida panhandle east of the Apalachicola River.\nSevere Weather potential related to BERYL stll appears to be very low.\nHowever, local thunderstorms anywhere in the WTVY-TV coverage area from Sunday night though the middle of next week could still have gusty winds and dangerous lighning.\nRain chances should hold off until late Sunday afternoon or more likely later Sunday night. Again, rain chances increase as you go east of Dothan and decrease as you go west of Dothan for Sunday night through Wednesday.\nFOR NOW, early next week this weakened tropical low (BERYL) does not look to provide significant rain for most of our area...but areas of southwestern Ga and areas of the Fla panhandle east of the Apalachicola River may receive 1 to 2 plus inches.\nIF BERYL weakens enough, it may not be driven back to the east by midweek. In that case it could still help set off afternoon & evening t-showers Wednesday and Thursday - again primarily east of Dothan.\n(A poignant reminder: in early July1994 -\nTropical Storm Alberto made a quick pass through the area after a rather nondescript landfall near Destin. HOWEVER, Tropical Depression Alberto stalled inland notheast of Dothan, then began a slow drift back toward Dothan that eventually dropped rainfall amounts exceeding 8 to 10 inches - especially over southwest Ga - over a 3 to 4 day period. Flooding and deaths were the result. We don't expect that with BERYL - but a drifting inland tropical depression is cause for concern if BERYL gets stuck to our east. Again, that possibility is not likely for now.)\nMemorial Day weather for the WTVY-TV coverage area still looks dry through most if not all of Sunday - with most of the shower chances for late Sunday remaining to the east of Dothan.\nBeach weather should be unaffected through Sunday. Clouds will increase from east to west later Sunday and especially Monday. Even Monday looks mainly dry along the beaches, especially west of Panama City.\nRegardless, ALWAYS check local beach conditions before entering the Gulf. Lifeguards and local officials are there to ensure you a safe and fun stay at the beach...please listen to their advice.\nMore about BERYL over this holiday weekend will be posted to this website in addition to our weather televison coverage at 8 am, 6 pm, 10 pm on Saturday and 5 pm, 10 pm Sunday (CDT).","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A total of 13 high-temperature red alerts have been issued since 2007 when the new meteorological early warning system was adopted.\nThe meteorological department of east China metropolis Shanghai recorded an air temperature of 40.9 °C (105.6 °F) at around 14:00 local time Friday, the highest on record in the city in 145 years. The previous record high temperature in the city of 40.8 °C (105.4 °F) was recorded on August 7, 2013, according to Xinhua.\nChina has a three-tier early warning system for high temperatures: a yellow warning is issued when high temperatures above 35 °C (95 °F) are predicted for three consecutive days, orange indicates a predicted high temperature of 37 °C (98.6 °F) in the next 24 hours, and a red alert is issued when the temperature is forecast to reach 40 °C (104 °F) within 24 hours.\nOther areas of China also have seen records set in recent weeks, in what has been a torrid summer so far for much of the country, while large areas of south-central China have endured raging floods from torrential rain, AFP reported.\nShanghai's red alert also puts authorities on heightened alert against fires breaking out and advises special care with perishable foods to prevent spoilage and bacteria.\nThe city has \"seen a spike in accidental injuries, triggered by fights or traffic accidents, as people are more easily irritated in the extreme heat and failing to exercise proper judgment,\" Shanghai weather bureau said Friday. Even dogs are on edge, according to a state media report this week that said the heat wave has coincided with a rise in dog bites.\nHeat waves have hit the city since the beginning of summer, meteorologists said, blaming a subtropical high and hot southwesterly for the relentless heat. They say that the city will continue to bake at least until early August when typhoon season begins and the weather begins to shift.\nFeatured image credit: Gabriel Jorby\nIf you value what we do here, create your ad-free account and support our journalism.\nProducing content you read on this website takes a lot of time, effort, and hard work.

It's a tease. It's a preview of what's to come. Nonetheless, the people of Mumbai (or Bombay, as some still like to call it) are enjoying it to the fullest.\nAs Skymet Weather (http://www.skymetweather.com/content/weather-news-and-analysis/monsoon-rains-continue-to-mar-west-coast-inches-closer-to-mumbai/#sthash.DcYSjpuY.dpuf) said on 11 June, \"Mumbai rains have finally commenced on Saturday morning, marking an end to the prolonged dry spell. City has been witnessing light rain and thundershowers since early morning hours, which are likely to continue for at least next 2-3 hours.\n\"As reiterated by Skymet Weather, the cyclonic circulation prevailing in Arabian Sea off Karnataka and Goa coast has shifted slightly northwards along the coast. This has led to the development of a convective clouds over South Mumbai, leading to rain and thundershowers.\n\"As per the weathermen, rains are expected to continue for next few hours, stopping thereafter. Another spell of rain is likely over the city again during the late afternoon or evening hours.\n\"Further, we can expect these rains to continue for next 24 to 48 hours with increasing intensity as Monsoon 2016 is around the corner.\"\nNaturally, the first rainfall of the season is something to be celebrated. It's an event that needs to be shared with the world via the various social networks that one is a part of. It's a time when Mumbaikers can sit back, relax and make fun of the citizens of Delhi, for having to deal with the heat and the humidity.\nA Mumbai resident, by the name of Akhri Pasta, summed up in under 140-characters, just what the first rains mean to them:\nI love how even though it rains every single year, we treat the first day of rain like it's the first time it's ever happened. #MumbaiRains— Akhri Pasta (@TheLitttleLiar) June 11, 2016\nThen there was the welcoming:\nWow.

The Southeast Asian archipelago is often the first major landmass to be hit after the storms build above the warm Pacific Ocean waters.\nSuper Typhoon Haiyan unleashed seven-metre (23-foot) storm surges that devastated the coasts of the eastern islands of Samar and Leyte last year, killing up to 7,300 people in one of the nation's worst ever natural disasters.\n- 'Terrified of storm surges' -\nMore than a thousand residents of Tacloban, a city in Leyte, fled to an indoor government stadium early Tuesday after the weather service warned of the threat of three-metre waves hitting the coast.\n\"We're terrified of storm surges,\" mother of three Mary Ann Avelino, 26, told AFP as her family sat on the cold concrete of the bleacher seats, watching puddles form on the floor from the leaky roof.\nShe said her family had temporarily abandoned a lean-to at the ruins of their coastal home to sit out the new typhoon on higher ground.\nState weather forecaster Alczar Aurelio said Rammasun was forecast to hit Legazpi, a city of about 185,000 people, in the early evening Tuesday.\nIt was then forecast to sweep across around 350 kilometres (215 miles) to the northwest and hit Manila and its 12 million people on Wednesday morning, he added.\nHeavy rain and strong winds pounded the Bicol coasts in the late afternoon, though there were no reports of casualties or damage, Joey Salceda, the governor of Albay province in Bicol, said over ABS-CBN television.\nRammasun is the first to make landfall since this year's rainy season began in June, and authorities as well as local media were seeking to ensure all potentially impacted communities were well informed and prepared.\nThe state weather service upgraded Rammasun overnight Monday from a tropical storm into a typhoon as its wind speeds built over the Pacific.\nRammasun, which is Thai for \"God of Thunder\", is expected to have gusts of up to 180 kilometres an hour when it makes landfall, according to the US military's Joint Typhoon Warning Center.\nThe government cancelled most classes in Manila and Bicol on Tuesday, while dozens of domestic flights were also grounded.\nThe coastguard also shut down domestic shipping across Bicol and nearby areas, leaving more than 6,000 ferry passengers stranded, Social Welfare Minister Soliman said.\nMORE REGIONAL NEWS\nLatest Photo Galleries on xinmsn\nWingsuiters have become an increasingly common sight in the Alps.

Instead of me sitting at home watching the Bills, I'm out here catching a sweat,\" said Daren Bailey, an East Side resident who was shooting hoops in the park.\nIt was the 22nd day in a row without any measurable precipitation, an unusually long span of dry weather but not a record for the area, Pukajlo said.\nThe all-time standard of 30 dry days was set in 1924.\nThe current dry spell has been fueled by a high-pressure ridge that has held steady over the area for the past three weeks, Pukajlo said.\nSeptember's average daily high temperature has run 1.5 degrees above normal, the Weather Service reported. The average daily low, however, has been 1.5 degrees cooler than normal.\nIt's better than the chilly and rainy conditions we endured in July, which was the sixth coolest July since the 1870s.\n\"That was the joke down here: 'Hey, it's nice that summer showed up for Labor Day,' \" said Jason Schwinger, proprietor of BFLO Harbor Kayak, based at the Central Wharf.\nSchwinger said he had seven days completely or partially wiped out by the rain, but Labor Day weekend was his second-best weekend for business.\n\"It's a gift,\" Jennifer Redanz, a teacher who lives in the Town of Tonawanda, said of our September weather.

In addition, dense haze is also crippling normal life.\nThe haze is actually a mix of winter fog and pollution.\nIn the capital alone, exhaust fumes from nearly 7.2 million vehicles combine with factory emissions and construction dust to produce a lethal mix, which can worsen the condition of patients suffering from respiratory ailments such as bronchitis and asthma.\nRainfall usually washes away the hazardous pollutants in the air but rain seems unlikely at the moment.\n\"There are no chances of heavy rain. It will be cloudy. There will be moderate rainfall. Today is the coldest day in December,\" said N Duraisamy from the Indian Meteorological Department.\nThe harmful effects of the toxic smog are not only on health, but on traffic as well, throwing normal life out of gear.\nThe cloak of fog that drapes the plains and mountainous zone of north India has forced dozens of flights to be either diverted or cancelled, as runway visibility drops to as low as 50 metres at New Delhi's airport.\nBut the network of trains criss-crossing the country are among the worst hit by poor visibility due to the dense winter fog.\n\"We are facing too many problems. We were waiting since morning. Earlier they announced that trains are running late, but now they have cancelled it,\" complained Gurpreet Singh, a train passenger.\nThe meteorological department has predicted that the fog and haze will last till at least next month, so it looks like residents will have to deal with this difficult situation for a little while more.\nSchool children may be the only ones who would find some respite though, with the possibility of their school vacations being extended.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Temperatures are expected to finally warm into the mid-40s on Sunday, he said.\nFor the homeless and other vulnerable people, the cold weather posed a bigger risk. The Shelby County government encouraged people to bring pets into warm spaces and check on vulnerable neighbors, including those who are elderly, disabled, homeless or who use alcohol and drugs.\nAnd a warming center remained open at Benjamin Hooks Central Library, 3030 Poplar Avenue. People can arrange a ride to the center by calling 901-636-2525.\nFortunately, homeless shelters including Memphis Union Mission still have plenty of space, said Dale Lane, director of the Shelby County Office of Preparedness. He said his office had received no reports of cold-related deaths and the power grid appeared to be working normally.\n\"Right now nobody's overwhelmed. Everything's operating as it should be,\" Lane said.\nA pipe burst in a house on Kney Street in North Memphis, causing water to flood into the home, said Vicky Partee with Memphis Fire Department Dispatch.\nThe fire department responded to check for fire danger, she said. There were no injuries, but emergency workers could be heard on the radio Monday afternoon discussing Red Cross aid for an affected resident.\nLane, the Shelby County official, said he'd heard of a couple of such cases. To prevent frozen pipes, the county government is encouraging people to wrap outdoor pipes, to let indoor faucets drip and to open cabinet doors under faucets.\nThe Monday morning snow was very light, with a dry consistency and didn't cause problems, said Chiuppi, the meteorologist.\nWith an anticipated high temperature of 21 degrees and a forecast night low temperature of seven degrees, Monday was shaping up to be one of the coldest New Year's days in Memphis since records began in 1875, Chiuppi said.\nThe record coldest New Year's Day in Memphis was Jan. 1, 1928, when the high temperature was only 16 degrees. And on Jan. 1, 2001, the high temperature was only 23 degrees.\nThe average temperature for New Year's Day in Memphis is around 50 degrees, according to the 30-year average from 1981 to 2010, Chiuppi said.\nFor several days, Memphis has feeling the effects of a cold mass of arctic air that's affecting a big swath of the United States. “The most highly anomalous cold air on the planet is over us right now,” Chiuppi said.\nReach reporter Daniel Connolly at 529-5296, email@example.com, or on Twitter at @danielconnolly.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

They orbit the sun among the rocky inner planets, as well as the gas giants that make up the outer planets. Meteoroids are even found on the edge of the solar system, in regions called the Kuiper belt and the Oort cloud.\nHow far are meteorites from Earth?\nAlthough a meteor may seem to be a few thousand feet from the Earth, meteors typically occur in the mesosphere at altitudes from 76 to 100 km (250,000 to 330,000 ft). The root word meteor comes from the Greek meteōros, meaning “high in the air”. Millions of meteors occur in Earth’s atmosphere daily.\nWhat is the distance between comets and the sun?\nMost comets travel a safe distance from the sun — comet Halley comes no closer than 89 million kilometers (55 million miles). However, some comets, called sun-grazers, crash straight into the sun or get so close that they break up and evaporate.\nHow big is a meteor?\nMeteoroids have a pretty big size range. They include any space debris bigger than a molecule and smaller than about 330 feet (100 meters) — space debris bigger than this is considered an asteroid.\nIs a meteor a shooting star?\nA meteor is a space rock—or meteoroid—that enters Earth’s atmosphere. What we see is a “shooting star.” That bright streak is not actually the rock, but rather the glowing hot air as the hot rock zips through the atmosphere. When Earth encounters many meteoroids at once, we call it a meteor shower.\nWhich asteroid is coming towards Earth in 2021?\nAn asteroid named 2021 NY1 could come close to hitting the Earth this month. The asteroid has been classified as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid (PHA) by NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). It has also been classified as a near-Earth object owing to its predicted close pass by our planet.\nHow fast can meteors travel?\nThe fastest meteors travel at speeds of 71 kilometers (44 miles) per second. The faster and larger the meteor, the brighter and longer it may glow. The smallest meteors only glow for about a second while larger and faster meteors can be visible for up to several minutes.\nWhat is the difference between a meteor and a meteorite?\nLike meteorites, meteors are objects that enter Earth’s atmosphere from space. But meteors—which are typically pieces of comet dust no larger than a grain of rice—burn up before reaching the ground. The term “meteorite” refers only to those bodies that survive the trip through the atmosphere and reach Earth’s surface.\nIs comet a planet?\nThey range from a few miles to tens of miles wide, but as they orbit closer to the Sun, they heat up and spew gases and dust into a glowing head that can be larger than a planet. Comets are cosmic snowballs of frozen gases, rock, and dust that orbit the Sun.\nHow much is 1g of meteorite?\nCommon iron meteorite prices are generally in the range of US$0.50 to US$5.00 per gram.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Additional climate data is sourced from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO).\nAdvice on the best time to visit a particular destination is based on average local weather statistics, when the weather conditions are generally better than at other times of the year. We consider high and low temperatures, risk of rain (and thunderstorms, etc.), amount of sunshine and sea temperature. For general outdoor activities we favour clear, rainless days with a temperature range between 18°C (64°F) and 27°C (80°F); and for hot-weather activities we favour clear, rainless days with a temperature range between 24°C (75°F) and 32°C (89°F). Often, the best times to visit correspond to high season and therefore involve higher prices.\nLatest update: Airlie Beach weather in October: 29 September, 2023\nDisclaimer: The information on this site is provided as is, without any assurances as to its accuracy or suitability for any purpose.

A partial lunar eclipse occurs when only part of the moon passes through the umbra or darkest part of earth''s shadow, Science Popularisation Association of Communicators and Educators (SPACE) Director C B Devgun told PTI. Sky gazers were enthralled to see the earth''s shadow sweep past the moon, turning a yellow shining full moon into a dim red one.\nAs the earth came in between the sun and the moon, its shadow first began sweeping across the moon blocking out much of its bright light. As the shadow descended gently, the moon''s face turned red.\nThe maximum partial eclipse was at about 1 am when the shadow started disappearing slowly to make the moon partially visible. \"The sky turned red when eclipse was at its maximum, the disc of the moon also turned reddish,\" Devgun said.\nThe awesome spectacle of the moon being eclipsed was visible all over the country, including the national capital. The last blue moon partial eclipse occurred in December 1982 and the next will occur in January 2037.\nIt was a rare event, Prof R C Kapoor of Indian Institute of Astro Physics said. When a second full moon in a calendar month appears in the night sky, the occurrence is known as a blue moon.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But the prospect of white winter weather -– and a breathtaking historical photo spread in the San Francisco Chronicle –- has generated intense anticipation throughout the week.\nWith Friday’s sunny skies came disappointment, and more than a little mockery.\nRich Sloan, manager of the Sports Basement store in the city’s South of Market district, said he usually dresses down –- in shorts. But the news accounts drove him to wear his \"big boy clothes\" on Friday -– merino wool socks and a jacket. Then the sun shone. And shone.\n\"Our shovels aren't sold out yet,\" Sloan said jokingly. \"We are seeing nothing. It’s all hype.\"\n\"In San Francisco, still waiting, not for Godot, but snow,\" Frederik L. Schodt wrote Friday afternoon, adding that the weather was beautiful, if getting steadily colder.\n\"The lack of snow in SF today proves that god loves San Francisco and California,\" Keegan Youmans-Via noted.\nA Florida woman, meanwhile, gave a shout-out to Al Gore, hinting that a rare San Francisco snow would bolster global warming warnings.\nStill, weather forecasters said snow was still a possibility this weekend, with a 10% chance of flurries.\nNational Weather Service meteorologist Christopher Stumpf said the promised cold air was filtering into the region Friday afternoon. Heavier showers hitting the Eureka area were expected to move into the Bay Area through Saturday, with snow flurries down to 1,000 feet that could possibly hit sea level.\nBut the chance of it sticking -– as an inch of the white stuff did 35 years ago -- is \"pretty unlikely,\" Stumpf said.\nCold temperatures are nevertheless expected to break records if a forecast Saturday low of 36 degrees, and 34 degrees at San Francisco International Airport, comes to pass -– edging out a recorded city low of 37 in 1962, another snow year. Temperatures should warm slightly on Sunday, Stumpf said.\nThe San Francisco Department of Public Works was mostly bracing for icy road conditions, preparing barricades and cones to close down roads -– particularly San Francisco’s famously steep grades, said spokeswoman Gloria Chan.

Although only 2376 km in diameter, it hosts five moons and a thin atmosphere. As shown in Figure 1, Pluto has a high orbital inclination (17 deg) and eccentricity (0.25), and it requires 248 years to travel once around the Sun. At 120 deg., Pluto has unusually high obliquity, which is the angle between the rotational pole and the orbital plane. Thus Pluto’s north pole (as defined by the right-hand rule) lies 40 deg. below the orbital plane. This combination of high orbital eccentricity and obliquity results in extreme seasons: Pluto’s most distant location from the Sun is nearly twice as far away as the closest, and each pole is exposed to the Sun for more than a century at a time. This geometry is expected to strongly affect the atmosphere.\nPluto’s micro-bar atmosphere was first definitively detected in 1988. In 2002, measurements showed that the atmosphere had expanded, even though Pluto was moving away from the Sun. By 2015, when NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft [https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/newhorizons/main/index.html] flew through the Pluto system, the atmosphere was roughly the same size it had been in recent years. However, the story gets more intriguing: models of the mass and distribution of surface ice, which include thermal inertia, predict that Pluto’s atmosphere could collapse out completely. For these reasons, continued observations of Pluto are important.\nIn August of 2017, researchers from the South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO) and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) observed a relatively rare event, a stellar occultation by the dwarf planet Pluto. The stellar occultation technique requires accurate measurements of the positions of a distant star and a foreground body, in order to predict exactly when and where on Earth a shadow will fall. In this case, Pluto was predicted to occult a star of approximately 15th visible magnitude, with the moderately-sized shadow path (less than 1/3 the diameter of Earth) falling over the northern Pacific Ocean. The event was observed remotely from Cape Town, using NASA’s 3-m IRTF (Infrared Telescope Facility [https://irtfweb.ifa.hawaii.edu/]) with the high-speed, accurately-timed, visible-wavelength instrument MORIS (MIT Optical Rapid Imaging System). Figure 3 contains Images taken before and after the occultation, which show Pluto and it’s largest satellite, Charon, as they approach the star and then after they pass by.\nThese data show that Pluto’s atmosphere still existed in late 2017. They are currently being analyzed, along with additional occultation measurements from 2018, to determine the most recent measurements of Pluto’s atmospheric characteristics. Results will be presented at the 2018 American Astronomical Society’s Division of Planetary Sciences meeting [https://aas.org/meetings/dps50] in October","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Here, boats are piled on top of each other at a marina in Southport, North Carolina in the aftermath of the storm.\nEarly insured loss estimates for Hurricane Isaias are in days after the storm rocked the East Coast, knocking out power for millions and creating significant property damage from the Carolinas to New York.\nIsaias became the second hurricane of the season to make landfall in the U.S., touching down in Ocean Isle Beach, N.C., on August 3, after hitting the Caribbean. Isais previously made landfall in the Dominican Republic as a tropical storm before hitting the Bahamas as a hurricane.\nOn Monday (Aug. 10), Karen Clark & Company (KCC) issued an early insured loss estimate for Hurricane Isaias, evaluating losses in both the U.S. and the Caribbean. Based on its hurricane reference models, KCC estimates the insured loss from Hurricane Isaias will be around $4 billion in the U.S. and $200 million in the Caribbean.\nThis estimate includes the privately insured wind and storm surge damage to residential, commercial, and industrial properties and automobiles, KCC says and does not include NFIP losses.\nAssessing Isaias’s impact\nThe Category 1 storm made landfall in North Carolina on August 3 with maximum sustained winds of 85 mph, bringing torrential rains, storm surge, damaging winds and tornadoes.\nIsaias created havoc all along the Atlantic coast last week. Strong winds knocked out power for over 3 million residents, leaving millions in New York and New Jersey in the dark for almost a week.\nThe Mid-Atlantic and Northeast recorded wind gusts of 60 to 70 mph as the core of Isaias passed through the region. Downed trees and power lines caused structural damage to properties, crushed automobiles, and disrupted transportation services throughout the affected area for several days.\nThe Caribbean, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, and the Bahamas were subjected to powerful winds from Isaias, tearing down trees and power lines. In Puerto Rico, around 350,000 customers lost power and many communication towers were rendered inoperable.\nAreas of the Bahamas impacted by Isaias were among the regions devastated by Hurricane Dorian last year. Worsening Isaias’s impact in these areas, not all repairs needed after Dorian had been completed by the start of this hurricane season. In the wake of Isaias, roof damage and structural damage from downed trees were observed in commercial and residential buildings, according to KCC’s loss report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Our last snowfall typically happens in April,but we have had snow in May and even June in the past.\nOf Canada’s 33 largest cities, Winnipeg is No. 11 as far as how many days each year it snows. If it’s any consolation, there are 25 cities in Canada that get more snow on average than we do here in Winnipeg, with our average winter at 45 inches. Cities in Quebec and in the Maritimes are much worse, with amounts up to 130 inches per year.\nCity street cleaning and street scraping has the snow banks up as high as seven feet along most of our thoroughfares, making it extremely dangerous when turning off side streets onto major roads. One almost has to edge out onto the road to get a chance to see if there’s anything coming. All of our driveways look like tunnels as the snow is piled higher than a city bus.\nThe side streets are a mess at the time of this writing, filled with icy ruts that make it treacherous for passing oncoming traffic and even more treacherous for our senior population, as far as walking anywhere outside. The problem with additional scraping is that our banks will become eight feet high instead of seven. There is hardly any place to throw the snow if you are shovelling . It takes a good toss right now to clear the bank, so more snow will be problematic.\nHopefully we won’t have a repeat of the 1966 or 1997 blizzards to add to our woes.\nIt was March 4, 1966 when Winnipeg recorded 14.6 inches of snow along with winds of 70 miles per hour that crippled the city for almost three days. Most emergency people (doctors & nurses) got to their work places via snowmobiles. Some snowbanks along major routes were as high as 12 feet.\nThe blizzard of 1997 was even later, beginning April 6 and continuing until the 7th. Although the temperature was much warmer than in 1966, we got more snow at 16.9 inches.\nBecause of the warmer temperatures there were hydro lines snapping, roofs collapsing and the good possibility of a spring flood on its way.\nMany Winnipeggers put away their shovels and, after moving tons of wet heavy snow had to go on one of sandbag brigades along the riverbanks.\nBe on the lookout for any Colorado lows.

Irma is the most powerful Atlantic Ocean hurricane in recorded history and it is churning along with the Florida Keys in its scope.\nVisitors of the Florida Keys were told to leave today, Wednesday, and by Thursday the residents of the Keys should leave. Despite mandatory evacuations, authorities cannot force people to leave. Once a mandatory evacuation is called and people do not heed this warning, you have no chance of rescue. Once that storm hits you are on your own. There are no shelters opening in the Florida Keys, the islands should be evacuated with the biggest Atlantic hurricane in history taking aim.\nIn a storm the size of Irma, if you stay on the Florida Keys, you will most likely need a rescue and one will not materialize. The chain of 42 Florida Keys ends with Key West, which sits about 90 miles from Cuba in the Atlantic Ocean.\nMost of the island chain of the Florida Keys sits only three to five feet above sea level, reports CBS Miami. With a category 5 hurricane taking aim at the Florida Keys, the wave heights expected “would literally put the ocean over the islands,” warns Monroe Co. Emergency Operations Center Director Martin Senterfitt.\nAccording to the Telegraph, “The hurricane is so strong that it appeared on seismometers, which are designed to measure earthquakes, and has the potential for coastal storm surges of up to 20 feet above normal tide levels.”\nAt this point on Wednesday morning, according to Fox & Friends, Irma is headed for the Florida Keys. With sustained winds of 185 mph and wind gusts up to 214 mph, the chance of survival if you attempt to ride this storm out on the Florida Keys is slim to none. Senterfitt warns:\n“For the Florida Keys, if you were to create the worst case scenario that is what we are looking at.”\nTake a good look at the video below, this is what Irma looked like making landfall in St. Martens, it is not a hurricane to ride out, so heed the warnings on the Florida Keys and get out now.\nAccording to ABC News, the deadliest storm to hit the Keys happened back in 1935 on Labor Day. The storm hit with winds of 185 mph and a storm surge of 18-feet washed over the island leaving more than 400 people dead in its wake. The railroad and bridges were washed away, leaving the lower and middle Keys only accessible by air and boat.\nIn 1960, Hurricane Donna washed over the Keys taking four lives. That storm hit on September 10 with sustained winds of 140 mph. With Hurricane Donna, the storm surge reached 13.5 feet. Hurricane Irma is more powerful than both of these storms.\nKey West is only 7.24 miles in area, with it running about four miles long and about two miles wide at its widest, according to Key West Trolley Tours.\nYou can check out the elevation of Key West on the Key West.gov website’s elevation map, it will give you a good idea of how low this island sits in the ocean water.\n[Featured Image by Chris Van Lennep Photo/Shutterstock]","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

After 12 consecutive months of above-average temperatures, November 2012 was cooler than the norm, according to the National Weather Service.\nLittle room was left for doubt: It was three degrees cooler.\nOne sign of the chill: The mercury at Reagan National Airport, Washington’s official measuring station, fell to the freezing mark Nov. 26. That was two full weeks before it got that cold at National last year.\nAs if to show that the 32 on the 26th was no fluke, the mercury skidded to a below-freezing mark Thursday — 31 degrees.\nElection Day, one of November’s calendar landmarks, also helped keep the month cool.

Hundreds more fires were being set even as the thick cloud of smoke already severely reduced visibility across the region. Officials warned that the level of pollution was getting dangerously high and unhealthy. The fires are being set primarily by plantation owners, taking advantage of the current dry season, to clear forested lands and to burn away the surface peat in swamp areas.\nThe pall of haze reaches as far north as Thailand on Asias mainland, stretches southward over the cities of Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, and spans across the Indonesian islands of Sumatra and Borneo from west to east. Visibility was reduced to about 500 m (1,640 feet) in some of the hardest hit areas, as school children were sent home and told not to play outside, and many who work outside must wear masks to protect them from the smoke.\nThis true-color image shows the portion of Malaysia located on the mainland Asian peninsula (upper right), and part of the Indonesian island of Sumatra to the west and south.

Unfortunately for the Pine Belt, the April wet stuff usually brings something a little more ferocious.\n“It’s a significant flooding event. Historical might be word,” said Marda Tullos, director of Jones County Emergency Management.\nHistorical for its near-record crests of the Leaf River that have triggered “moderate flooding,” according to Tullos.\nTwo other bodies of water — the Tullahoma Creek and the Tallahala Creek — have helped swamp portions of Jones County, closing city and county roads and causing house damage.\nThe Tallahala Creek crested at 20 feet early Wednesday morning and is now receding, while the Leaf River is still rising along Mississippi 588.\nIt’s expected to reach 28 feet, very near a record set in 2004, according to Tullos. She advised that folks evacuate their homes along the Leaf River where the waters continue to swell.\nThe Tallahala Creek’s rising waters shut down as many as nine streets at a time Tuesday and Wednesday in Laurel that have since reopened.\nTullos said emergency workers received reports Thursday of several houses in Laurel that received water damage.\nAs of 11 a.m. Thursday, there were 15 Jones County roads still closed because of flooding.\nSwelling these waters is the 5-8 inches of rain that central Mississippi received this past weekend.\nThe Pearl River in central and south Mississippi is also above flood stage.\n“All of that water is now draining down through the rivers and eventually to the ocean (the Gulf of Mexico),” said National Weather Service meteorologist Anna Weber.\nTwo fatalities have been blamed on the weather. Nine-year-old Petrauna Hudson was swept away as she played in the water in her yard on Sunday. A Coahoma County man, who was injured when strong winds destroyed his mobile home on April 3, died Wednesday at a Memphis hospital. The man’s name and age were not immediately available.\nGov. Phil Bryant on Tuesday declared a state of emergency in 12 counties that have suffered impacts from flooding and severe storms that moved through the state beginning April 3.\nChickasaw, Covington, Hinds, Holmes, Jones, Kemper, Marion, Neshoba, Newton, Noxubee, Simpson and Yazoo counties are included in the declaration.\nWeber said the next few days of dry weather should provide relief for flooded areas.\nStarting Sunday night, however, another storm is expected to hit. The National Weather Service says severe weather is possible, with a chance of hail, damaging wind or tornadoes into Monday.\nCovington County EMA director Greg Sanford said the total number of houses damaged by Sunday’s E-2 tornado is now up to 70. There were also eight injuries.\n“As far as I know, all the people who have been injured have been released,” said Sanford.\nEmergency management officials are still calculating the monetary damage done by the tornado’s 125 mph winds and 16-mile path.\nIt’s going to be a few days before we have a good number on that,” said Mississippi Emergency Agency spokesman Brett Carr.\nThe Associated Press contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Royal Observatory Greenwich described the fiery activity as “compensation” for those who may miss the comet’s next appearance”.\nThe Orionid meteor shower is one of the best known and most reliable meteor showers in the annual calendar, visible from across the globe,” a spokeswoman for the Royal Observatory Greenwich said”.\nSome people view the shower as extra special as the meteors are actually pieces of Comet 1P/Halley, famously known as Halley’s comet”. The famous comet swings by the earth only once every 75 to 76 years but this annual shower provides some compensation for those who may miss that once in a lifetime event.”\nThe Orionid meteor is active throughout October but is expected to peak at around 11:30pm on October 21.\n“You need a dark sky and a lot of patience in order to see the comets,” Rob Jessel, from the Royal Astronomical Society, said. “I would advise people to wrap up warm, head away from the cities, lie down staring up at the sky and don’t use telescope or binoculars. In fact, they are probably quite unhelpful as you need to be looking at as much of the sky as you can.”\nThis article is republished here with edited title and was originally published on The Telegraph.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The GOES-13 visible image showed the low as a swirl of clouds far north of eastern Brazil and about 1,100 miles east of the Lesser Antilles. The showers and thunderstorms associated with the low have become limited this morning. System 92L continues moving west-northwestward at about 15 mph.\nThe National Hurricane Center noted that \"Environmental conditions are expected to become less favorable for tropical cyclone formation during the next day or so.\" Therefore, the potential for development has decreased and the chances for development into a tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours have dropped from 50 percent yesterday to 30 percent today.\nGOES-13 was launched by NASA and is now operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). NASA's GOES Project at the Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. created the latest satellite image that shows System 92L in its weakening state.\nMeanwhile, in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, forecasters continue to watch two areas for potential tropical cyclone development.\nThe first area is a low pressure area that has been nearly stationary about 350 miles west-southwest of Acapulco, Mexico. Because environmental conditions are expected to continue to allow for slow development (warm sea surface temperatures and light vertical wind shear), there's still a 30 percent chance this low could develop into a tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours.\nThe second area has an equally low chance of developing into a tropical cyclone in the next 48 hours.

This was our last morning to shoot.\"\nHunt first noticed the strange glow when she directed her camera to the north, after setting up her gear at the popular Mesquite Flat Sand Dunes. In fact, the glow was so unexpected that she first thought she must have made a mistake.\n\"I thought I left my camera on auto white balance or something went wrong,\" Hunt recalled. \"I had never seen an airglow like that! So, I took another shot and told my friend who was also there to check with her camera.\"\nThe two took repeated shots, all of which revealed the eerie glow that on the right-hand side of the image gradually gave way to light pollution above Las Vegas.

Solar wind consists mostly of electrons and protons released from the sun's upper atmosphere, the corona. When these particles carry a magnetic field that has the opposite direction than Earth's magnetic field, the two fields connect and channel the solar wind particles deep into the atmosphere.\nDue to the nature of Earth's magnetic field lines, the particles tend to penetrate the deepest above the polar regions, which is why most auroras remain restricted within the polar circles.\nThe solar storm that hit Earth on Tuesday (Feb. 28) generated a G3 geomagnetic storm on the five-degree scale of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the U.S. leading space weather authority. A G3 storm, according to NOAA, would usually only produce auroras in the northernmost U.S. states. The most severe G5 category, which usually occurs only a couple of times during each 11-year solar cycle, may light up the sky as far south as Florida.\nAt 36 degrees northern latitude, Death Valley is too far south for aurora displays during G3 storms, as traditionally understood. However, it appears that sensitive photographic equipment is now allowing astrophotographers to detect polar lights from much farther afield, even during milder events.\nThe same solar storm also boosted the southern polar lights, known as aurora australis, which thrilled skywatchers as far away from the South Pole as Perth in Western Australia. Perth is even farther away from the South Pole than Death Valley is from the North Pole. Still, an astrophotographer who identifies as Shelley on Twitter said the lights in Perth were visible even to the naked eye.\nAside from the beautiful aurora displays that stunned skywatchers all over northern and central Europe and North America, the storm also provided a taste of the darker side of space weather. SpaceX had to postpone the launch of a batch of Starlink satellites due to concerns that turbulent conditions in Earth's upper atmosphere may interfere with their ability to stay in orbit. Workers deployed on oil rigs in Canada reported that operations had to be temporarily suspended due to the storm's interference with GPS signals, which are used for precision navigation.\nThe current solar cycle, the periodic ebb and flow in the generation of sunspots and solar flares, is picking up momentum. The next solar maximum, the period of highest sun activity, is expected to come in 2025, so we are likely to witness more fabulous aurora displays as well as more space weather trouble in our technology-dependent world.\nTereza is a London-based science and technology journalist, aspiring fiction writer and amateur gymnast.

Up close, it’s anything but. Fortunately, NASA has an excellent view of the sun’s surface through its Solar Dynamics Observatory, equipped with three different devices for measuring the sun’s activity.\nBetween July 5 and July 11, that orbiter caught this incredible footage:\nWhat you’re watching is a fast-growing tangle of magnetic fields on the sun’s surface. The spot looks dark because all the magnetic activity blocks some heat from rising to the sun’s surface — it’s about 2,300 degrees Kelvin cooler in the sunspot.\nSunspots are pretty common, although just how common they are changes over a cycle that lasts about 11 years. Right now, we’re approaching the low point of that cycle, which is why most of the sun’s surface looks so smooth. This sunspot is right about where the phenomenon most often occurs — in two strips on either side of the sun’s equator.\nWhile they feel distant, sunspots can actually affect life here on Earth. They often lead to what’s called space weather, when the sun’s behavior sends streams of particles towards Earth that can cause auroras near the poles, tangle GPS signals, or even affect the power grid.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Fire. Water. Earth. Our four elements. Since the beginning of the summer this year, 2017, these elements have driven home the message of climate change.\nAir and water, let’s start there, with wind and flooding embodied in Hurricane Harvey, a cat 4 storm that slammed into Texas and made a loop back to Houston, where it dropped a total of 52 inches of rain.\nShortly afterward came Hurricane Irma, definitely an air event, with sustained winds of 185 mph for a record 36 hours. Irma hit Cuba with 155 mph winds, was supposed to hit the east coast of Florida, but stayed longer than expected over the northern coast of Cuba and made that turn later, sending it up Florida’s west coast. Eventually, it turned inland and struck Orlando as a cat 2 storm as well. The entire state of Florida was placed under a hurricane warning, prompting the largest evacuation in that state’s history.\nLess than two weeks later, Hurricane Maria, another cat 5 storm, devastated Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.\nMexico City was struck by a 7.1 quake on September 19 – an earth event, for sure. And now, we have a fire event in northern California, where 22 wildfires are burning out of control.\n“By Wednesday morning, at least 3,500 homes and businesses had been destroyed and nearly 170,000 acres burned, according to Daniel Berlant of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection.” (Huffington Post)\nSo what does the Trump administration do with all this climate change evidence? On October 10, Scott Pruitt, head of the EPA and a climate change denier, released a proposal to eliminate the Clean Power Plan – “a set of Obama-era regulations aimed at slashing emissions from coal-fired power plants and boosting renewable energy production ― had yet to go into effect, after being temporarily blocked by the Supreme Court since February 2016.” This leaves the U.S. without any policy that addresses climate change.\nThe synchronicity, a sad trickster, is that Pruitt announced this in Hazard, Kentucky.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This report fulfills the EPA’s redesignation substitute requirements in its Implementation of the 2008 National Ambient Air Quality Standards for Ozone: State Implementation Plan Requirements; Proposed Rule (78 FR 34178) to lift anti-backsliding obligations for the revoked one-hour ozone NAAQS by ensuring that specific redesignation requirements are met for the HGB area under the revoked standard. According to EPA’s proposed 2008 ozone standard SIP requirements rule, this report is based on certain Federal Clean Air Act (FCAA) redesignation criteria and includes: monitoring data showing attainment of the revoked one-hour ozone NAAQS; a showing that attainment was due to permanent and enforceable emissions reductions; and a demonstration that the area can maintain the standard through 2026 via emissions inventory trends and future emission projections.\n- Redesignation Substitute Report\n- Attachment A: Projection Factors for Point and Area Sources\n- Attachment B: Characterization of Oil and Gas Production Equipment and Develop a Methodology to Estimate Statewide Emissions\n- Attachment C: Condensate Tank Oil and Gas Activities\n- Attachment D: MOVES2010b-Based On-Road Inventories in Support of the HGB Ozone Nonattainment Area Redesignation Substitute Analysis\n- Attachment E: Development of Statewide Annual Emissions Inventory and Activity Data for Airports\n- Attachment F: 2011 Texas Railroad Emission Inventory Report\n- Attachment G: Development of 2011 Statewide Toxics and Actual Annual and Ozone Season Weekday Emissions Inventories for Commercial Marine Vessels\n- Attachment H: Development of Texas Statewide Drilling Rigs Emissions Inventories for the Years 1990, 1993, 1996, and 1999 through 2040\n- Attachment I: Development of Locomotive and Commercial Marine Emissions Inventory - 1990 to 2040\nEmissions Inventory (EI) SIP Revision for the 2008 Eight-Hour Ozone Standard for the HGB and Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) Areas\nOn July 2, 2014, the commission adopted the EI SIP revision for the 2008 Eight-Hour Ozone Standard (Non-Rule Project No. 2013-016-SIP-NR). This SIP revision satisfies the FCAA, §172 and §182 requirements for the HGB and DFW nonattainment areas under the 2008 eight-hour ozone standard. The SIP revision includes 2011 emissions inventories for ozone precursors (volatile organic compounds and nitrogen oxides) from point, area, on-road mobile, non-road mobile, and biogenic emissions source categories as the base year emissions inventories for the HGB and DFW areas.\nFor additional information, please visit the Air Pollution from Ozone Web page.\nHGB 1997 Eight-Hour Ozone Standard Nonattainment Area MVEB Update SIP Revision\nOn April 23, 2013, the commission adopted the HGB 1997 Eight-Hour Ozone Standard Nonattainment Area Motor Vehicle Emissions Budgets (MVEB) Update State Implementation Plan (SIP) Revision. This SIP revision updates the March 2010 HGB attainment demonstration and reasonable further progress (RFP) SIP revisions for the 1997 eight-hour ozone standard by replacing the on-road mobile source emissions inventories for nitrogen oxides (NOX) and volatile organic compounds (VOC) based on the EPA's MOBILE model with those based on the EPA’s Motor Vehicle Emission Simulator (MOVES) model. The 2008, 2011, 2014, 2017, and 2018 NOX and VOC MVEBs and the contingency analyses are also updated using the MOVES-based emissions inventories. Updated on-road inventories and emissions analysis based on the EPA’s August 30, 2012 vehicle miles traveled offset guidance and a modified version of the MOVES model, MOVES2010bROP, demonstrate compliance with Federal Clean Air Act requirements for transportation control measures in severe nonattainment areas. A review of emissions inventory data, photochemical modeling, and the quantitative and qualitative corroborative analyses used as weight of evidence in this SIP revision supports the March 2010 HGB attainment demonstration. This SIP revision meets the primary obligation of the mid-course review commitment in the March 2010 HGB attainment demonstration by demonstrating that the outstanding 3% contingency requirement is fulfilled.\nHGB RACT Analysis Update SIP Revision Adopted December 7, 2011\nOn December 7, 2011, the commission adopted the HGB Reasonably Available Control Technology (RACT) Analysis Update SIP Revision for the 1997 Eight-Hour Ozone Standard to include Control Techniques Guidelines (CTG) documents that were not addressed in the March 2010 HGB Attainment Demonstration SIP revision for the 1997 Eight-Hour Ozone Standard. This SIP revision also incorporated CTG-related rulemaking for the HGB area (Project No. 2012-028-SIP-NR)\nHGB Attainment Demonstration and Reasonable Further Progress SIP Revisions Adopted March 10, 2010\nOn March 10, 2010, the commission adopted two revisions to the Texas SIP for the HGB nonattainment area for the 1997 eight-hour ozone standard: the HGB Attainment Demonstration SIP Revision for the 1997 Eight-Hour Ozone Standard and the HGB Reasonable Further Progress SIP Revision for the 1997 Eight-Hour Ozone Standard. The commission also adopted associated rule projects revising 30 Texas Administrative Code, Chapters 101 and 115, which address cap integrity in the Mass Emissions Cap and Trade (MECT) program, a cap reduction and allowance reallocation for the Highly Reactive Volatile Organic Compounds (HRVOC) Emissions Cap and Trade (HECT) program, and an update to CTGs for VOC used in offset printing.

The clouds were expected to be visible for much of the East Coast of the US and surely would have left many scratching their heads.\nIt’s not the first time this experiment has been delayed, but it marks the end of the launch window which ran from May 31st through June 6th. Weather forecasts show that the conditions won’t be right in the next two days and the tentative date for launch is now June 11th.\nThe experiment requires specific weather conditions. On the day of launch, a two-stage Terrier-Improved Malemute sounding rocket will carry ten canisters that will be deployed about five minutes after liftoff. The canisters will then create vividly coloured artificial clouds aka vapour tracers. NASA scientists will then visually track the subsequent particle motions to gain further understanding of the ionosphere. The space agency has ground cameras at the Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia and in Duck, North Carolina. The sky must be clear at one of those locations for researchers to be able to gather data properly. Unfortunately, clouds interfered with the tests this morning, causing the postponement of the launch.\nNASA is clear that this mission poses no danger to humans. The canisters would be released about 161km above the ground and they contain barium, strontium, and cupric-oxide. But just because the chemicals don’t pose a danger doesn’t mean the plummeting payload doesn’t. The scheduled launch on Saturday was canceled because of boats that were in the area where the payload was estimated to fall.\nFor anyone who wasn’t aware of this experiment, the postponement is just an opportunity. Assuming that all goes to plan, you’ll be able to watch the launch around 4 AM on June 11th. People on the East Coast “from New York to North Carolina,” will have a chance to see the colourful clouds in person according to NASA. For everyone else, a livestream will be available.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Several small brush fires ignited Sunday across Los Angeles and Ventura counties, and a major fire erupted Monday in Riverside County.\nHigh winds and low humidity increased the fire risk and brought the threat of preventive power shutoffs to almost 70,000 customers in L.A. and Ventura counties, according to Southern California Edison.\nMost of the blazes that ignited Sunday — including in West Hills, North Hollywood, Wilmington, Santa Ana and Camarillo — appeared to be contained or under control by Monday morning, with none exceeding more than a couple of acres, fire officials said.\n“Right now we’re fortunate we haven’t seen any larger fires,” Robbie Munroe said Monday morning. But the National Weather Service meterologist cautioned, “That’s something we could see on a day like today. With the strong winds and very dry conditions, rapid fire growth can occur.”\nBy late Monday, those concerns were realized in Riverside County, where a blaze dubbed the Highland fire ballooned to more than 1,200 acres near Aguanga, prompting evacuation orders.\nBut even with the historically dangerous offshore wind pattern, UCLA climate scientist Daniel Swain said he expected any fire activity to remain more limited compared with prior years because of one key factor: moist fuels.\n“The lack of exceptionally dry vegetation makes firefighting much more tractable,” Swain said at a virtual briefing Monday. “The fuels are providing a bit of impediment.”\nThis year’s unexpectedly wet weather — which included a record-setting snowpack and a summer tropical storm — has helped keep wildfires at bay across the state, Swain said, even when facing the latest warm, dry wind events.\n“You can get extreme fire weather conditions from low humidity and strong winds, but if the vegetation isn’t dry enough to support extreme fire behavior, you often aren’t going to get it,” he said.\nSanta Ana winds up to 70 mph blew into the region Sunday. At the Magic Mountain Truck Trail in the San Gabriel Mountains, the strongest gust was recorded at 104 mph early Monday, according to the National Weather Service.\nA red flag warning — an alert for dangerous fire weather — was set to remain in effect through 10 p.m. Monday for much of L.A. and Ventura counties, with concerns of widespread wind gusts around 40 to 60 mph in the mountains, valleys and some coasts along the the Santa Ana wind corridor, and isolated gusts near 70 mph.\nWhen gusts exceed 58 mph, Munroe said, downed trees and power lines become a major concern, as does road travel for high-profile vehicles. The city of Los Angeles remained under red flag parking restrictions, limiting street parking in designated areas to ensure emergency vehicles can quickly respond.\nWinds were expected to be the strongest in the western San Fernando Valley and the Santa Clarita Valley.\nHigh winds are also a concern through Tuesday in the Inland Empire, San Bernardino and Riverside county mountains, San Gorgonio Pass near Banning, the Santa Ana Mountains and inland Orange County.\n“We are expecting the worst of the winds through this afternoon, especially early afternoon,” Munroe said Monday morning. “Then we should be on a downward trend this afternoon and evening.”\nThousands in Ventura County were either already without power or imminently threatened to lose power, due to public safety power shutoffs during the wind event, according to the county’s online emergency dashboard.\nSouthern California Edison said about 2,000 customers in San Bernardino were without power due to the safety shutoffs, as well as about 500 in L.A. and Ventura counties, and thousands more were under alert for possible shutoffs.\nA freeze warning was also issued for Tuesday morning for the Antelope Valley.\nSwain says he is increasingly confident that this year will remain a relatively calm fire year, given that high fuel moisture. But he said that’s no indication of California’s future. The state is likely to continue experiencing a type of climate whiplash in the face of global warming — with extremely dry years followed by exceptionally wet seasons.\n“Inevitably, the pendulum is going to swing back the other way,” Swain said. “Unfortunately, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 — these terrible fire years — I don’t think those were an anomaly or a blip. … We will be back there a few years from now, and we could be in a worse place at some point in the future.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Rainfall’s most common over summer, although this will often fall in brief, heavy downpours or thunderstorms that quickly clear.\nIn iconic Miami the average high’s 31ºC in September, which only drops to a balmy 25ºC at night so you'll still be nice and warm. The sea temperature’s also warm at 29ºC, which is great for swimming, while humidity’s very high. Average rainfall’s 178mm over 17 rainy days, although you can still expect nine long hours of sunshine at a high UV level from the 12 hours of daylight each day so don't forget the sun cream. Sunset’s at 7.40pm at the start of the month, and gradually gets earlier.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Bands of increasingly windy squalls will move across the Keys and southeast Florida through the day. The storm surge against the Keys will peak in the late afternoon when the center come over or near Key West. The tide will be near high tide then, so the water will rise in the areas that were flooded by Hurricane Georges in 1998. Perhaps not to the same level, but be ready. Heed all emergency advice.\nWaves of squalls with some winds to 60 mph or more will also move over the Miami-Ft. Lauderdale metro area. The best advice is to stay inside until the storm passes.\nLuckily, Isaac will only slowly organize, so no surprises in intensity are expected.\nThe storm surge questions remain for the west coast. The NHC has lowered their maximum estimate for southwest Florida to 4-6 feet... still extremely threatening to anyone near the water. The 3-5 foot estimate remains for areas in and around Tampa Bay. The severity of the surge in these areas will be highly dependent on timing. If the peak surge comes at high tide, it will be significant and dangerous. The question of the surge being enhanced by a shelf wave is also still open. Heed emergency advice along the west coast!\nThere is no obvious reason why Isaac shouldn't strengthen once it gets into the Gulf. How much it strengthens depends a bit on the exact track. If it tracks just west of the coastal shelf, the water gets very deep so that cooler water can be churned up by the storm. Over the shelf or farther off into one of the warm pools and the cooling effect won't occur. In any case, the central northern Gulf coast should be thinking about a Category 3 hurricane under the theory that you always prepare for one category higher than forecast, knowing that intensity-forecasting skill is not high.\nThe track spread in the models continues from last night.\nSee you later today on The Weather Channel.\nComments will take a few seconds to appear.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

One of the area’s worst stretches of roadway proved to be highway 7 east of Montevideo, where a number of vehicles were pulled from the ditch and one two-vehicle crash occurred.\nThree people were injured in a crash Wednesday on U.S. Highway 71 near County Road 3 by the former Svea schoolhouse in Kandiyohi County. Kandiyohi County Sheriff Dan Hartog said icy roads and strong winds were a factor in a number of accidents around the county. The area south of Willmar appeared to experience the greater number of reports, but problems were widespread. The State Patrol reported a two-vehicle crash without injuries near Hawick at 5:30 a.m. Wednesday.\n“True winter driving conditions,’’said Sheriff Hartog of the situation in Kandiyohi County. He urged motorists to slow down and use caution, and to make sure they turn their headlights on. He encountered a number of vehicles failing to do so despite wind-whipped snows that reduced visibility.\nBlowing snow and whiteout conditions made travel dangerous in portions of Renville County as well. By late afternoon, the Sheriff’s Office was urging no unnecessary travel due to the conditions.\nThe low-pressure system that delivered the storm sent a wave of rain through the region at the start of the day. Temperatures dropped below freezing around mid-morning, turning the rain into snow and glazing the slush-covered roads with an icy coating. Winds that gusted up to 30 miles per hour in some open areas caused near white-out conditions in some locations.\nThe greatest snowfall amounts were reported to the west. Dawson measured somewhere between 8 and 10 inches. As of late afternoon Wednesday, Dawson Police Chief Andy Stock said no major accidents had been reported, but there were cars in ditches and at least one semi-trailer rig had jackknifed east of town.\nThe Dawson-Boyd, Lac qui Parle Valley and Canby school districts cancelled classes before the start of the day. The Montevideo, Yellow Medicine East, MACCRAY and BOLD school districts were among those sending students home early.\nSuperintendent Luther Heller said the Montevideo Schools began the day two hours late. As the morning progressed, the rain was replaced by snow squalls. Concerns about visibility as the winds picked up led to the decision to send students home right after lunch was served.\nMost evening activities throughout the region were canceled.\nThe Minnesota Department of Transportation had spread salt in anticipation of the storm, but the heavy rains that arrived as the day began washed much of it away, said Mandi Lighthizer-Schmidt, communications coordinator for the District 8 office in Willmar.\nShe said snowplows were out throughout the day, and would continue to work the area highways until 10:30 p.m. They were going to return to the roads at 3 a.m. to clear them for the Thursday morning commute.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A seconday low began to form over eastern North Carolina during the late afternoon on the 11th and eventually absorbed the other low pressure becoming the dominant low. This low began its movement up the Mid-Atlantic coastline late on the 11th into the 12th. Early on the morning of the 12th the low was centered over the southern Delmarva with yet another low forming offshore. With the two lows in close proximity, a strong northeast wind developed and persisted through the evening of the 12th. The prolonged northeast flow combined with higher than normal tides caused tidal flooding in New Jersey and Delaware. There was limited moisture inland from the center of the system but an abundance of moisture was ushered into southern Delaware and Eastern Maryland. By Monday evening the coastal low began moving towards the southeast away from the region, bringing an end to the gusty winds and tidal problems.\nA Flood Watch was issued at 337 AM EDT on the 11th and was in effect from late Sunday night until Monday afternoon.

At this time, under ideal conditions in the sky it will be possible to see a fall of 2-3 meteors per minute”, – follows from the calendar of meteor showers of the International Meteor Organization (IMO).\nAt the same time, as astrophysicist Sergey Lamzin, deputy director of the State Astronomical Institute named after Sternberg (SAI) of Moscow State University, specified, it is always difficult to predict the exact number of visible meteors due to the unpredictable influence of the planets on the Perseids. According to him, observers in 2017 can wait for a particularly colorful, and no different in the number and brightness of the flow.\n“Unfortunately, this is actually an unpredictable phenomenon, there have been cases when experts predicted an extremely abundant meteor shower, but in fact it looked normal, and there were situations exactly the opposite: the fact is that it is still very difficult to take into account the influence of others Planets into the orbits of meteor particles, “Lamzin said.\nThe peak of the most popular star of the year\n“Starry rain” from the constellation Perseus spills to Earth during the period from July 17 to August 24 and reaches its maximum in the night from 11 to 13 August: that’s when you can admire the most popular and brightest star of the year in all its glory. Meteor streams are spilled annually, because the orbits of the Earth and the stream have an invariable area of intersection with each other. Perseid activity is unstable from year to year: the activity of bursts weakens as the distance between the comet and the Earth increases.\nIn ordinary years the meteor shower is relatively remote from the Earth’s orbit and is located outside it. Periodic convergence of cometary tracks with the Earth is accompanied by an increase in the activity of Perseids. The last time this happened in 2004 and 2009. The next bursts of flow activity are expected in 2028, the Moscow Planetarium says.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Here it is.\n- Oh, look at that.\nLONNIE QUINN: Yeah, look, isn't that a gorgeous view of our town? Look at that right there. That's what you got outside, guys. That's what it looks like. I can't mess with a camera shot. That's it. So you've got raindrops out there. Temperature comes in at 45 degrees. Winds are northeast, but they're pretty light right now at 6 miles per hour. That's going to change as we get into your day tomorrow.\n47 was the high temperature, so officially 3 degrees off the mark from where you should be. But look at how uniform the temperatures have been all day. They didn't really move at all. 44 was the low, and 47 is your high. But look, they're kind of flip-flopped, right? 44 at 2:29 in the afternoon, low temperature. 47 the high, just about 9 o'clock this morning.\nLet's move forward, though, and talk about what to expect because we are still on track for this washout of a day to continue. We're going to pick up over an inch of rain for just about everybody. We are not-- notice the asterisk, the double asterisk. That's a point I'm really trying to make. We are not on track for a big snow event.\nI think anybody could see a trace to an inch, OK? That's about it. Friday is not about the snow. Friday is all about cold and windy conditions. The winds kick in again. There's wind chills. I'll show you all of that.\nAnd if you're wondering about spring, spring will start Saturday morning-- Saturday morning about 5:30. I think it's 5:37 in the morning. At that point in time, the temperature is going to be below freezing. It'll be 30 degrees in New York City. Plenty of you will be in the 20s. So you're kicking off spring. You're feeling like winter.\nAnd if you look at the amount of rain we picked up so far, the numbers are basically about a half an inch for folks. 0.92, the biggest number for Andover. 0.08, they had a dry slot over Belmar for a bit. But look, Toms River, about a half an inch as well.\nIf you look at what we're currently getting, we're getting some light rain, except for the area, northern portions of Dutchess County. Some very heavy rain there. That's pushing into the Berkshires. Everybody else, it's pretty light up there. There's a couple little blips of some moderately heavy rain. That could pick up a bit as we get into the nighttime hours, and I'll show you why.\nBig picture shows you a pretty decent band right here around Roanoke, Virginia. And that could cycle into the area. So remember, this low pressure system right here, this is pushing off to the east. But as it moves, it circulates like this. So it could drive that into our area. So just know, you keep your rain chances in as you go through the late night hours.\nAnd it could even turn over to a little bit of snow. But I really want to emphasize again, a little bit of snow. Watch this. Here's how the computer models are handling everything. This is 11:00 PM. So batch of heavy rain is possible south of New York City. Big break for some other folks, but again, those could easily be flip-flopped. Just know it's a little spottier out there at 11:00 PM, but could be heavier.\nNow we do start to see some of that rain transitioning to snow. Because remember, the cold air is coming in from the north. So this is where it's going to happen. And it could push a little farther to the south. Here's 3:00 AM in Manhattan. Throughout the five boroughs, we got a little bit of snow falling out there. It just doesn't really amount to too much of anything. We're talking a trace to 1 for anybody.\nI talked about how the winds will be an issue tomorrow. Look at this. By the time you get to, say, Friday afternoon-- stop it right there, lunchtime-- winds are around 40 miles per hour as for the gusts. So that's going to give you some wind chills that are cold out there.\n40 degrees. Will be feeling like you never get out of the 30s tomorrow. Saturday, 51. You're kicking off springtime at 5:37, but 51 is the high for Saturday, not a springtime temp. More like it on Sunday at 56 degrees. And then we're off and running, around 60 degrees for Monday all the way through Thursday of next week. That's the seven day. It's all yours.\n- Happy spring, Lonnie.\n- Happy spring to you too, Mo.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Both hot and cold deserts exist, and deserts occur on all seven continents.\nApproximately one-fifth of the Earth is desert. Desert classifications include hot and dry, semiarid, coastal and cold. While most conceive of deserts as hot environments, a desert is any region of the world that receives less than 50 centimeters of rainfall every year.\nHot and dry deserts occur in North America, South America, Asia, Africa and Australia. Examples of this desert type are the Mojave Desert in North American and Africa's Sahara Desert. Fauna tends to be nocturnal to take advantage of cooler night-time temperatures.\nNorth America, Europe and Asia contain semiarid deserts, which include the sagebrush habitats of North America. Spiny plants and jackrabbits are among the flora and fauna of semiarid deserts. Dew accumulation from cooler night temperatures actually exceeds annual rainfall in some locations.\nThe Atacama Desert of Chile is a famous coastal desert. There is no evidence of rainfall in some parts of the Atacama in recorded human history.\nAntarctica, North America and Europe are home to the world's cold deserts. The average temperatures in parts of Antarctica are minus 20 degrees Celsius, with no rainfall.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In preparation, Pakistan’s National Disaster Management Authority is evacuating villagers along the entire coast and they have closed the many restaurants on the beaches of the area.\nRainfall has been forecast to be heavy and fishermane at sea have been asked to return to the shore. The weather department said that the sea will be “rough to very rough” along the coastline.\nIn the Kutch district of Gujarat, authorities are reportedly evacuating 30,000 people. There have been 200 relief centers set up and schools and colleges have been closed in the area.\nCyclone Nilofar is expected to cause severe damage and possibly result in a high death total.

To see another one coming is just so discouraging.”\nUS Virgin Islands Governor Kenneth Mapp warned residents not to underestimate the threat from Maria, or its potential to change track. “Just remember this is a live animal,” he said.\nThe island of St Croix appeared to be in the path of hurricane-force force winds, with nearby St Thomas and St John seeing tropical storm-force winds, Mapp said, adding, “given the current conditions of St Thomas and St John, that’s not good”.\nDangerous storm surges\nMaria was expected to whip up storm surges – seawater driven ashore by wind – of up to 2.7m above normal tide levels, the NHC said.\nParts of Puerto Rico could see up to 64cm of rain, it added.\nHurricane and tropical storm warnings and watches were in effect for a string of islands in the area, including the US and British Virgin Islands, Antigua and Barbuda and the French-Dutch island of St Martin.\nPuerto Rico opened shelters and began to dismantle construction cranes that could be vulnerable to Maria’s high winds.\nForecasters were also tracking Category 1 Hurricane Jose, packing 120kph winds and located about 405km east of North Carolina, and stirring dangerous surf and rip currents to much of the US Eastern seaboard.\nMaria marks the 13th named Atlantic storm of the year, the seventh hurricane so far this season and the fourth major hurricane – defined as Category 3 or higher – following Harvey, Irma and Jose, the NHC said.\nThose numbers are all slightly above average for a typical season, which is only about half over for 2017.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Without protection, high winds can topple walls, scaffolding and equipment.\n- Thunderstorms – Lightning, high winds and heavy rain usually occur without much warning or time to prepare.\nGetting your job site ready for severe weather means you only need minor last-minute changes to adequately prepare the area in the event conditions worsen. With adequate preparation and planning, you can avoid injuries and financial losses on your sites.\nAs we all can attest too, lightning is a dangerous natural force. Annually in the United States, cloud-to-ground lightning occurs 20 to 25 million times and over 300 people are struck by lightning. During the past 30 years, about 50 people, on average, have been killed by lightning strikes every year, and many more suffer permanent disabilities.\nAccording to the OSHA NOAA fact sheet, precautions should be taken to prevent worker exposure to lightning. Employers should recognize lightning as an occupational hazard. Supervisors and workers at outdoor worksites should take lightning safety seriously. Lightning is unpredictable and can strike outside the heaviest rainfall areas or even up to 10 miles from any rainfall.\nDuring a lightning storm the following procedures should be taken for you safety:\n- The site should provide a protected area away from trees and metal equipment for workers to take cover in.\n- Lightning often strikes workers who go back outside too soon.\n- Employees should remain in an enclosed area until 30 minutes after last hearing thunder.\n- If your workers lack an enclosed building, instruct them to stay inside a hard-topped vehicle until the storm passes.\nIn 2016, across the United States, high winds caused 23 deaths and 87 injuries. Along with the human toll, property damage from winds totaled $95.8 million. The data illustrate how severe winds are in causing loss of property and life.\nDuring storms or high winds, OSHA prohibits:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Hours after pounding the state, it spread heavy rains and gusty winds around the Carolinas, resulting in record-breaking floods in Charlotte, multiple rescues, at least one collapsed bridge, and at least 6 fatalities. The overall death toll is now approaching 300.\nOn Thursday morning, Eta made its overall fourth landfall and second Florida landfall near Cedar Key, with winds of 85 km/h (50 mph), according to the National Hurricane Center (NHC).\nUp to 152 mm (6 inches) of rain fell over central and northern Florida into Thursday morning. Officials in several areas– including St. Petersburg, Sarasota, and Madeira Beach have responded to reports of flooded streets and torn off roofs.\nRoughly 11 000 customers lost access to electricity. As of Friday morning, November 13, a total of 616 customers remain without power, according to poweroutage.us.\nAfter reaching the mainland, the winds fell to 64 km/h (40 mph) in the afternoon. The storm ripped roofs apart, caused flooding, and widespread outages that affected 11 000 customers.\nIn the south St. Petersburg Beach area, the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office deployed its High Water Rescue Teams to save 33 people trapped in their houses and streets.\nIn Manatee County, one person lost his life after being electrocuted while standing in an inundated area prior to the landfall, emergency management officials said. Deputies and highway crews are still working to clear debris from roads.\nIn the Carolinas, moisture from Eta combined with a cold front moving eastward across the Eastern U.S. generated extremely heavy rainfall. At least 6 people lost their lives in North Carolina.\nIn Alexander County, North Carolina, authorities reported three bodies at a flooded campground about 97 km (60 miles) north of Charlotte on Thursday morning. Meanwhile, 31 people were rescued from the Hiddenite Family Campground and two people are still missing. In Rolesville, a child drowned in a flooded creek.\nAlexander County Sheriff Chris Bowman said the campground is near a fast-rising river, which previously seen evacuations amid intense rainfall.\n\"That’s exactly what happened last night and this morning,\" he said, adding that it had been years since a storm brought so much water at once on the region.\nAnother person died in a vehicle accident near the Vashti community after one bridge in the county was swept away by \"major flooding,\" as described by officials.\nAlexander County director of public services Doug Gillespie reported that intense rains overnight left 50 roads compromised in the county.\nHeavy rains also caused Little Sugar Creek to reach a record level of 4.5 m (15 feet), passing the marker set by Hurricane \"Danny\" in 1997, according to Charlotte Agenda.\nEta made its first landfall south of Puerto Cabezas, Nicaragua, on November 3, with maximum sustained winds of 220 km/h (140 mph)– a Category 4 hurricane strength.\nIt weakened into a tropical depression as it headed northwestward into Honduras before turning northwestward back into the Caribbean from November 4 to 5.\nThe country's banana sector has been hit particularly hard as more than half of the country's existing 15 000 ha (37 000 acres) has been lost to severe floods– the biggest damage in history for bananas, according to producers.\nOn November 7, Eta re-strengthened into a tropical storm and made landfall in south-central Cuba on November 8. It then made landfall in the Florida Keys on November 9 as it headed west and then southwest into the Gulf of Mexico.\nEta has left about 290 people dead or missing in Central America and the United States.\nAt 09:00 UTC (04:00 LT) on Friday, November 13, Eta became an extratropical low.

Certain sites already have standing water, so adding the right amount of warmth and humidity there will help boost the mosquito population and its ability to reproduce.\nAccording to a state health official, the swarms of mosquitoes seen in social media videos that have gone viral seem to be engaging in a common behaviour among these insects, where males dance to entice females. Pune has become a year-round mosquito breeding ground due to its high temperatures and humidity levels for a large portion of the year, regardless of the season.\nAccording to an IMD scientist, the winter has been milder recently, with plenty of humidity and warmer nights. It is also known that these circumstances favour diseases spread by mosquitoes.\nIn fact, a recent health bulletin has issued a warning regarding the temperature thresholds for the transmission of dengue and malaria in Maharashtra, with a minimum temperature window of 16-19°C and a maximum threshold of 33-39°C. Parts of Pune have been experiencing these kinds of temperatures lately.\nAccording to a recent study, mosquito survival and reproduction were found to be more favourable in environments with temperature fluctuations.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

And with the cold set to win out in the coming days, forecasters are warning Northern England could get its first taste of wintry showers before the end of the month.\nThe latest forecasts have forced William Hill, which is offering odds of Christmas Day snowfall at 12 major UK airports, to slash Leeds from 6-1 to 3-1 favourite for festive flurries.\nAs the cold air spreads in, Leeds Bradford Airport, which is more than 700ft above sea level and holds the record for being the highest airport in the UK, could be one of the first to record falling snowflakes on Christmas Day.\nWith Exacta Weather claiming that all things point to the most cold and wintry conditions since 2010, north-west duo Liverpool and Manchester have been cut to 7-2 and 4-1, from 8-1 and 13-2 respectively.\nFormer frontrunner Edinburgh (10-3) is joined by Glasgow (7-2) among the most likely to see snow covered Christmas scenes on December 25, while Newcastle and Birmingham (both 4-1), Belfast (9-2), Dublin and London (both 6-1), and Bristol and Cardiff (both 8-1) complete the set.\nWilliam Hill spokesperson Rupert Adams said: “Forecasting snow is done with near-perfect accuracy within five days, and so it remains notoriously tricky business, especially for bookmakers. But with a keen eye on long-range forecasting and available modelling, coupled with the increased likelihood of cold spells during the early part of the winter, due to an expected La Nina ENSO state, the stars, or clouds, could well align this year, and deliver a White Christmas.”\nThe popular pastime of betting on a white Christmas was in fact instituted by William Hill, and traditionally required a single snowflake to fall on the MET Office operations centre in London.\nNowadays, and with that building long since sold - the national weather service now based in Devon, all that is needed to declare a white Christmas is the observation of a single snowflake falling in the 24 hours of December 25, at one of 12 major UK airports.\nThe UK has not seen snow on the ground on Christmas Day since 2015 when it was observed at a tenth of weather stations. Those 2015 flurries came five years after widespread snow and the coldest December for a century in 2010.\nThe last widespread white Christmas (2010) saw snow on the ground at 83% of weather stations (the highest amount ever recorded), while snow or sleet fell at 19% of stations.\nTechnically though, 2017 was the last true white Christmas in the UK - with 11 percent of weather stations recording snow falling, but none recorded any on the ground.\nWhite Christmas Market\nLeeds (Leeds-Bradford Airport)- 3-1\nEdinburgh (Airport) - 10-3\nGlasgow (Airport) - 7-2\nLiverpool (Airport) - 7-2\nManchester (Airport) - 4-1\nNewcastle (Airport) - 4-1\nBirmingham (Airport) - 4-1\nBelfast (Airport) - 9-2\nDublin (Airport) - 6-1\nLondon (City Airport) 6-1\nBristol (Airport) - 8-1\nCardiff (Airport) - 8-1","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Conclusions and recommendations\nAnalyses of emissions data from the National Pollutant Inventory (NPI), has shown that several tonnes of heavy metals were emitted into the atmosphere from industries and area-based sources. For example from 1998 to 1999 the major estimated metals emissions from NPI reporting facilities were: 90 tonnes of arsenic and compounds, 1 tonne of cadmium and compounds, 10 tonnes of chromium(VI) compounds, 8 tonnes of cobalt and compounds, 1 tonne of copper and compounds, 39 tonnes of lead and compounds, 343 tonnes of manganese and compounds, 2 tonnes of mercury and compounds, 9 tonnes of nickel and compounds and 3 tonnes of zinc and compounds. For that same year, estimated major emissions from area-based emission activities were: 602 tonnes of lead and compounds, 2 tonnes of arsenic and compounds, 3 tonnes of chromium(VI) compounds, 4 tonnes of manganese and compounds, 1 tonne of mercury and compounds, 8 tonnes of nickel and compounds and 347 tonnes of zinc and compounds. These metals were associated with particulate matter in air.\nLead emissions from motor vehicles and petroleum services (in several cities), manganese (from a mining operation in the Northern Territory), zinc (from domestic solid fuel burning in Tasmania) and arsenic (from a copper mining operation SA) featured strongly in the total heavy metals emissions. Although there were limitations to the accuracy of the 1998/1999 emissions data, being the first year of reporting, this NPI database served as a useful screening tool for identifying metal emissions worth considering in future ambient studies. More accurate NPI emissions data should emerge in the future.\nThere were large amounts of data on the ambient concentrations of heavy metals measured in particulate matter from studies conducted in Melbourne, Sydney-Wollongong-Newcastle, Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide, Canberra, Tasmania, the Northern Territory and other towns in Australia. Available ambient metals data did not appear to be consistent with some of the NPI reported emissions for 1998/1999.\nLead was the most measured metal since it is a criteria air pollutant, ubiquitous and was present at high concentrations in ambient air until the phase-out of leaded petrol. Measurement of ambient lead levels started before 1990 in several Australian cities and towns.\nThere were six major studies in Australia on the elemental composition of airborne particulate matter. These studies were performed to determine the contributions of identified pollutant emission sources to particulate matter concentration in ambient air. They were source apportionment studies, and required the measurement of metals and other non-metal compounds such as carbon. The studies found metal profiles or 'fingerprints' in emissions from motor vehicles, coal combustion, industries, smoke, soil and sea spray, and subsequently used to determined sources of emissions. Studies of several elements, which included heavy metals, were completed between 1992 and 2000.\nThe procedures used for sampling particulate matter for the determination of their metals content were consistent with that used for the determination of particulate lead, which was sampled according to the Australian Standard Method AS2800 (1985). However, the frequency of sampling and the duration of sampling for metals were not consistent between studies. Also, different particle sizes, PM1, PM2.5, PM10 and TSP were collected for metal analysis.\nThe Particle Induced X-ray Emission (PIXE) spectroscopy technique was the most commonly used analytical method by the Australian studies for determining the concentrations of several metals in particulate matter. This technique was sensitive, fast, accurate, and less expensive since it could measure several metals simultaneously. Only a few Australian studies used other methods such as Inductively Coupled Plasma spectroscopy or Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy techniques for determining multiple metals in particulate matter. Since there was no Australian standard method for multiple metals determination in particulate matter, samples were not analysed or results reported in a consistent way that would have enhanced easy data comparison across all the jurisdictions.\n|Metals||Maximum annual average concentration\n|Place and year was measured||Data source||WHO annual average guideline\nna: annual average data not available\n* These compounds are classified as carcinogens by WHO (unit risk factors are provided)\n** 24-h concentration\nAFP: Australian Fine Particles Study (Ayers et al., 1998)\nThe most abundant metals measured in ambient air, with concentrations normally greater than 0.1 µg/m3, were sodium, aluminium, silicon, potassium, calcium, iron, lead, and zinc. Currently reported ambient lead concentrations in several Australian cities were below the NEPM lead standard of 0.5 µg/m3 annual average, being attributable to lead reduction programs for motor vehicle emissions enforced in Australia over the years. There are no Australian ambient air quality standards to compare the concentrations of the other measured metals. The World Health Organisation (WHO) ambient air quality health guidelines were available for a few metals; arsenic, cadmium, chromium(VI), lead, manganese, mercury, nickel and vanadium (WHO, 1987). The maximum annual average metal concentrations in TSP, measured in Australian cities are compared to WHO Air Quality Guideline values for the corresponding metals in Table 12. Ambient lead, manganese and vanadium concentrations in the table are below the WHO guideline values. Annual average data were not available for arsenic, cadmium or mercury in any of the Australian cities, although the WHO has Air Quality Standards for them. Arsenic, chromium(VI) and nickel are classified as carcinogens by the WHO, since they do not appear to have thresholds for the onset of health effects, hence the WHO provide unit risk factors (health risk-concentration relationships) for them (WHO, 1987).\nNo statistical long-term trend analysis could be performed on the data from the studies on multiple metals, since insufficient samples were collected at any particular sites. This was due to the fact that most of the studies were done over short periods. For example, during the Australian Fine Particle study, data were collected from six cities, but only for very brief periods (1-2 months). The longitudinal data available were limited to Queensland and the Northern Territory, but were still insufficient for long-term statistical trend analysis of ambient metal concentrations. However, seasonal differences were observed in the Queensland data. From that data, the concentrations of aluminium and potassium showed statistically significant seasonalities from 1996 to1998, and for calcium, titanium and phosphorus, from 1997 to 1999. Lead, iron and silicon showed statistically significant seasonal differences in 1996, 1997 and 1999. In general, winter concentrations were observed to be higher than summer concentrations for the metals that depicted significant seasonal differences.\nThe metals reported in the NPI, with the exception of beryllium, cadmium, mercury and antimony, have also been determined in most of the ambient air studies. The available ambient metals data were not comprehensive; in particular there were no data on mercury and little data on cadmium and arsenic concentrations in several Australian cities. However, the NPI database showed several tonnes of these metals and lead were emitted into the atmosphere annually.\nFrom the review of the data available on heavy metals analysis in ambient air in Australia, the author wishes to make the following observations/recommendations:\n- There is a need for an Australian standard method for determining multiple metals in particulate matter from ambient air, to allow consistent measurement and reporting of their concentrations.\n- Long-term trend monitoring should be conducted for mercury and cadmium, alongside lead monitoring; these metals can be toxic at levels that are only moderately above background levels, and their emissions are being regulated in other industrialised countries. This report shows that there are currently few ambient data on cadmium and mercury in Australia.\n- The methods used for the collection and analysis of the heavy metals cadmium, mercury, arsenic, antimony, beryllium and selenium should be verified. Data from the NPI showed that industries and diffuse sources emitted these metals, but there are very little ambient available data on them, and the reported concentrations were very low. In particular, it should be ascertained if current collection and analyses techniques are suitable for them, or whether they should be complemented with other techniques. For example, there is a potential for the volatile compounds of these metals, including lead, to be lost from the filter paper during sampling. There is a need for the efficiencies of their collection to be determined and reported with the concentration data.\n- Inter-laboratory sample analysis of heavy metals in particulate matter should be encouraged between Australian laboratories, irrespective of analytical techniques used for their determination.\n- Analytical techniques such as Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) and Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) or other techniques, which can determine isotopic ratios, should be used more extensively for determining metals concentrations in particulate matter in order to differentiate sources of emissions.\n- For any future multiple metals studies, the six-day (24 hour) cycle should be used as a minimum for collecting particulate matter, and synchronised to occur on the same days as lead monitoring. In addition to this cycle of monitoring, attempts should be made to collect samples when pollution events occur, since the Perth Haze study showed that combustion sources, for example, dominated these events.\n- Since there is a distribution of the different metal types in the various particle size ranges, both PM10 and PM2.5 samples should be collected. The use of a dichotomous sampler or similar sampler enables the collection of both types of particles.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In fact, I can't find one article about it in our weather story archives.\nWhy? Because we were distracted :) That was the month we had 27 consecutive days of rain in Seattle, with longer streaks in other cities. Guess that was more exciting, plus since we were getting soaked every day, maybe we didn't notice that it felt warm.\nBut there is another synergy between 2006 and 2010 -- really long streaks of warm weather.\nIn Paul Deanno's new KOMO 4W Webcast Feature (Bookmark and add it to your RSS feed today!) he noted that we are at 37 days in a row with temperatures at or above normal, with good prospects toward getting it up to 50 days or so.\nSure enough, we had a mega warm streak in 2006 as well. Back then, we went 59 days in a row with temperatures at or above normal. What's interesting there is, it came right on the heels of a 36-day streak of temperatures at or *below* normal in November into December. We weren't quite that crazy this year, but it'll be interesting to see if we can topple the 59-day streak.\n(I have no idea what the record is. I'm not sure it's anything anyone's ever tried to track consistently. Especially since the normal temperatures get reset every 10 years to update for the latest weather conditions.)\nAlso of note in 2006 -- that streak ended with an arctic blast that brought lows into the single digits in some spots for a couple of days, although it was mainly dry -- kind of like what we had in early December this past year.\nRight now, there's no sign of any cold air out there through mid February, but I get the sneaking suspicion we've got one more arctic blast out there before mid-March. Guess we'll see.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This week's rainfall may not be in the same universe with the destructive power of a hurricane, but it is tropical in nature. Moisture is being pulled up from the Gulf of Mexico and creating steady rain throughout East Texas and Louisiana, the latter of which has seen some of the worst flooding in its history.\nFor Houston, it's far less serious and doesn't appear to be worsening. Parts of the Houston area have received as much as 10-12 inches of rain over the last 3-4 days but only minor street flooding has been reported. That should continue throughout most of the week as this pattern of wet weather will continue.\nBy the weekend, forecasters are now calling for a gradual decline in rain chances. It won't go away completely — this is Houston in the late summer, after all — but 60 and 80 percent chances will diminish to 30 and 40 percent by late Friday and into Saturday.\nGiven the time of year, however, expect there to be a persistent threat of rain for at least the next few weeks. More importantly, this is the time of year when the tropics truly heat up. The National Hurricane Center recently increased its tropical weather forecast for the season, now calling for between 12 and 15 named storms. We have currently had five and the Atlantic Basin is beginning to see a significant uptick in activity as we move into the peak of the season.\nFor the Texas coast, our storm chances drop dramatically by the last week of September, but for the next five weeks or so, Houstonians need to be wary of the tropics. As we have seen the last few days, particularly for our neighbors to the east, you don't need a hurricane to have severe weather.\nKeep the Houston Press Free...

Current, sulfur dioxide monitoring activities include the use of emission inventories that are derived from ground-based measurements and factors, such as fuel usage. The inventories are used to evaluate regulatory policies for air quality improvements and to anticipate future emission scenarios that may occur with economic and population growth.\nBut, to develop comprehensive and accurate inventories, industries, government agencies and scientists first must know the location of pollution sources.\n\"We now have an independent measurement of these emission sources that does not rely on what was known or thought known,\" said Chris McLinden, an atmospheric scientist with Environment and Climate Change Canada in Toronto and lead author of the study published this week in Nature Geosciences. \"When you look at a satellite picture of sulfur dioxide, you end up with it appearing as hotspots - bull's-eyes, in effect -- which makes the estimates of emissions easier.\"\nThe 39 unreported emission sources, found in the analysis of satellite data from 2005 to 2014, are clusters of coal-burning power plants, smelters, oil and gas operations found notably in the Middle East, but also in Mexico and parts of Russia. In addition, reported emissions from known sources in these regions were -- in some cases -- two to three times lower than satellite-based estimates.\nAltogether, the unreported and underreported sources account for about 12 percent of all human-made emissions of sulfur dioxide - a discrepancy that can have a large impact on regional air quality, said McLinden.\nThe research team also located 75 natural sources of sulfur dioxide -- non-erupting volcanoes slowly leaking the toxic gas throughout the year. While not necessarily unknown, many volcanoes are in remote locations and not monitored, so this satellite-based data set is the first to provide regular annual information on these passive volcanic emissions.\n\"Quantifying the sulfur dioxide bull's-eyes is a two-step process that would not have been possible without two innovations in working with the satellite data,\" said co-author Nickolay Krotkov, an atmospheric scientist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.\nFirst was an improvement in the computer processing that transforms raw satellite observations from the Dutch-Finnish Ozone Monitoring Instrument aboard NASA's Aura spacecraft into precise estimates of sulfur dioxide concentrations. Krotkov and his team now are able to more accurately detect smaller sulfur dioxide concentrations, including those emitted by human-made sources such as oil-related activities and medium-size power plants.\nBeing able to detect smaller concentrations led to the second innovation. McLinden and his colleagues used a new computer program to more precisely detect sulfur dioxide that had been dispersed and diluted by winds. They then used accurate estimates of wind strength and direction derived from a satellite data-driven model to trace the pollutant back to the location of the source, and also to estimate how much sulfur dioxide was emitted from the smoke stack.\n\"The unique advantage of satellite data is spatial coverage,\" said Bryan Duncan, an atmospheric scientist at Goddard. \"This paper is the perfect demonstration of how new and improved satellite datasets, coupled with new and improved data analysis techniques, allow us to identify even smaller pollutant sources and to quantify these emissions over the globe.\"\nThe University of Maryland, College Park, and Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, contributed to this study.\nFor more information about, and access to, NASA's air quality data, visit:\nNASA uses the vantage point of space to increase our understanding of our home planet, improve lives, and safeguard our future.

While the answer you’d expect to hear is “spring time”, which does have the most amount of tornadoes, the truth is tornadoes can happen any time of year if the ingredients are right. This was such an occasion.\nThere was still a lot of warm gulf air that December morning and with a cold front sweeping in to meet that cold air, we had a classic setup for the potential of tornadic supercells around the Mississippi River Delta regions along the river from Tennessee to Louisiana.\nWe had decided to setup just east of the river. There are only a few crossings along about a 100 mile stretch and these storms would be moving at a good pace, we didn’t want to get stuck on the wrong side of the river. We setup in Clarksdale, MS and waited. The first storms of the day formed just north of us and became tornado warned. Still we waited for an area just to our southwest that had the best ingredients for tornadic supercells. This tornado literally formed to our southwest and tracked directly at us for at least 15 minutes or more.\nWe ran around to some houses around us to knock on doors and alert the residents of the impending tornado. We also hit our “train” horn while re-positioning east to alert the area around us. I distinctly remember a resident coming out on to his porch as we drove by to see what all the commotion was about, seeing the tornado, then running back inside his house to take shelter. We came back to the same area shortly after the tornado went through and had a couple of people tell us they heard us come by and that’s what alerted them to the tornado as this was a mostly rural area, some of which did not have tornado sirens. Our live feed was on CNN and The Weather Channel as well.\nThis tornado became an EF-3 and tracked more than 60 miles before lifting and setting back down an even larger monster, an EF-4 that tracked for 70+ miles. This was easily the most intense winter tornado I’ve ever witnessed.\nDon’t ever assume that tornadoes can’t happen because of what the calendar says. Tornadoes do not follow a calendar. Have a plan. Know where to go. And stay safe!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Icy roads already were blamed for a 21-vehicle pileup in Oklahoma, and the Highway Patrol there says a 28-year-old woman was killed in a crash on a snowy highway near Fairview.\nThe snowstorm that caused numerous accidents pushed out of Oklahoma late Tuesday, carrying with it blizzard warnings for parts of northeast Arkansas, where 10 inches of snow was forecast. Freezing rain clung to trees and utility lines in Arkansas and wind gusts up to 30 mph whipped them around, causing about 71,000 customers to lose electricity for a time.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Eighty-five are in place along the state’s Atlantic coast from the Florida-Georgia state line to southern Broward County.\nOn Friday, field crews installed 40 more on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Additional Gulf Coast deployments were curtailed on Saturday, after National Hurricane Center forecasters predicted Dorian would likely remain off the state’s Atlantic coast. But the sensors installed at Captiva and Cape Coral, from Spring Hill to Sarasota, and from north of Steinhatchee to Inglis will remain in place until after the storm has passed.\nIn Georgia, field scientists are installing 50 storm-tide sensors the length of the state’s low-lying coastline. Slow-moving Hurricane Dorian may cause higher-than-normal ocean waves well to the north of the storm, and its course is still uncertain.\nMost of the instruments are designed to measure the height and duration of the storm-tide as the storm approaches shore, makes landfall, and departs. Others will monitor water levels on inland water bodies, with some reporting water level data in near real-time; the field crews will gather data from them immediately after the storm has passed. The USGS’ Flood Event Viewer for Hurricane Dorian shows the location of the instruments that will record the storm’s effects on water levels as it moves onshore.\nStorm surge, coastal erosion and inland flooding are among the most dangerous natural hazards unleashed by hurricanes, with the capacity to destroy homes and businesses, wipe out roads, bridges, water and sewer systems, and profoundly alter landscapes. The USGS has storm surge experts, as well as sophisticated equipment for predicting and monitoring flood and tide conditions, and has been consulting with the National Hurricane Center and other agencies to prepare for Hurricane Dorian.\nPrepared to Capture Coastal Storm Surges\nStorm surges are increases in ocean water levels caused by extreme storms. Scientists want to better understand storm surges so forecasters can more accurately model and predict surge-related flooding, engineers can design better storm-resistant structures, and emergency responders can work more safely and effectively.\nThe USGS’ network of storm tide sensors along portions of the U.S. Atlantic and Gulf coasts can record water level and barometric pressure every 30 seconds to document storm surge crests, or waves of water, as they make landfall. Anticipating a storm’s path and intensity, USGS scientists often deploy storm tide sensors at other places along the coast just hours or days before a hurricane’s expected landfall. The sensors are housed in steel pipes a few inches wide and about a foot long. Working quickly, and often in severe weather, field crews install them on bridges, piers and other structures that have a good chance of surviving a hurricane’s storm surge.\nThe teams are also deploying barometric pressure sensors, one within ten miles of every storm tide sensor; the two devices work together to correlate the storm’s intensity with wave heights. The crews also plan to deploy five clusters of wave height sensors on boardwalks in Flagler, Volusia, Brevard, St. Lucie and Palm Beach counties. By recording wave heights along a line running from the beach to the dune peak and behind the dune, these transects help create a detailed picture of wave action.\nAdding Temporary Streamgages to Track Dorian\nThe USGS Streamgaging Network operates scientific instruments that record water levels and other key pieces of information on rivers and streams throughout the nation, with the support of local, state, and federal agencies. During storms and floods the USGS uses this nationwide network to provide near-real-time data about water levels to the National Weather Service, Federal Emergency Management Agency, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and others.\nWhen a major hurricane is expected to make a U.S. landfall, the USGS augments the network by installing special streamgages called rapid deployment gauges, or RDGs, in areas where flooding is likely, but no permanent streamgage exists. RDGs measure water levels and local weather data in areas susceptible to storm-tide flooding and transmit that information by satellite in near-real time for flood forecasting and emergency response. The public can see the information in near-real time by clicking on the RDG symbol in the Flood Event Viewer.\nField crews have installed eight RDGs in Florida. They plan to install 12 RDGs in Georgia, completing the work in advance of Hurricane Dorian’s winds, rain and storm waves. If flooding does occur, USGS field crews will make real-time streamflow measurements to verify the streamgages’ readings. After the storm passes, the crews will quickly replace any storm-damaged or lost gauges. During and right after hurricane flooding, these records help FEMA target emergency relief to the hardest-hit areas.\nResources to Help Everyone Prepare\nAs USGS takes action to prepare for Hurricane Dorian, people in the path of the storm can get tips on creating emergency plans and putting together an emergency supply kit at www.ready.gov or www.listo.gov.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The Lyrid meteor shower is here and it’s going to reach peak activity this Easter.\nThe Lyrid meteor shower takes place between April 16 and April 25, and will peak on the night of April 22.\nThose in the Northern Hemisphere are best situated for glimpsing a few meteors, but the event should also be visible in the Southern Hemisphere between midnight and dawn. As with any meteor shower, you should find a dark area, far away from city lights, and stay outside for around 20 to 30 minutes to allow your eyes to become adjusted to the low light.\nAs far as meteor showers go, the Lyrids are not the most lively and dramatic. Visibility might also be hampered by moonlight, as April 23 will also see a bright gibbous Moon, which is very close to a full Moon.\nThat said, the Lyrid meteor shower is often visible to the naked eye and you can expect to see anything from five to 20 meteors per hour. Plus, given the time of year, many parts of the world should be enjoying relatively clear skies (with a bit of luck).\nThe Lyrids get their name from the fact they appear to radiate from the area of the sky near the constellation Lyra, whose brightest star is Vega, some 25 light-years away. However, don’t let that distract you as the meteors can appear anywhere in the sky.\nThe meteors come from debris flying off the tail of comet C/1861 G1 (Thatcher) at speeds of 49 kilometers (30 miles) per second. As these chunks of cosmic dust hit Earth’s atmosphere, they will burn up and leave a streaking tail.\nPeople have been enjoying the Lyrids for at least 2,700 years. They were first written about by Zuo Qiuming, a Chinese writer and contemporary of Confucius, in 687 BCE who described \"stars that fell like rain.\" So who knows, perhaps China's most influential philosopher was an admirer of the Lyrids too.\nThe Lyrids also play an important role in the astronomical traditions of an Aboriginal Australian group known as the Boorong clan. This clan no longer exists in its singular form and their traditions were only transferred through the ages orally, but we do know that to them, the Lyrids represented the scratchings of the malleefowl bird, represented by the star Vega, during its period of cosmic nest-building.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It is still unknown whether the space rock burned up completely upon entry or if it was able to hit the surface of the planet.\nA Bright Fireball In The Sky\nWitnesses claimed the fireball that appeared midnight Saturday burned so brightly that it created shadows for several seconds before eventually fizzling out.\nEric Shultz, one of the Floridians who saw the event, posted on local TV station WMBB-TV's Facebook page. He said they saw a strange light falling from the sky over Youngstown. The scene was caught on video by their home's doorbell camera.\nMeanwhile, Jacksonville resident Jeffrey Cardona asked others via Twitter if they also saw the fireball. He was able to capture the scene on his car's dashboard camera.\n\"Can somebody explain this,\" Cardona wrote.\nA YouTuber said they witnessed the fireball while on their way. They described the event as \"pretty crazy.\"\nMeteor Falling On Earth\nThe National Weather Service (NWS) detected the falling meteor as well. The fireball's flash was recorded using the Geostationary Lightning Mapper satellite, which is used to take photographs of lightning storms to help map their paths across the country.\nHaley Brink, a meteorologist working for CNN, said meteors such as the one seen over the weekend happen quite fairly. However, people do not get to witness them all the time.\nShe explained that these scenes are starting to become more visible to the public these days courtesy of satellites in space, as well as various cameras here on Earth.\nThe NWS said it received unconfirmed reports of the meteor crashing somewhere near Perry, Florida. The city is located about 55 miles southeast of Tallahassee.\nExperts advised residents who may come across fragments of the meteor that tests would have to be undertaken to confirm that it is indeed the space rock.\nThis is not the first Earth received a sudden visitor from outer space. Earlier this year, a meteor was seen burning up in the sky over western Cuba, with some pieces of the space rock reaching the ground. There were no reported cases of people getting hurt in the incident, but the explosion was said to have been heard as far away as Florida.\nIn August, NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory reported that a meteor crashed in Greenland with a 2.1 kiloton blast. The space rock hit the ground 43 kilometers north of the United States Air Force's Thule Air Base.\nHans Kristensen, director of the Nuclear Information Project for the Federation of American Scientists, posted about the explosion on Twitter. However, the American military did not confirm the space rock's crash.\nKristensen raised his concern about the U.S. government's failure to issue a warning to the public regarding the meteor.\nCan Somebody Explain This! #area51 #ufo #meteor @bbcnews @igersjax @news4jax @abcnews #news #newsjax #shootingstars #jacksonvilleflorida ️ pic.twitter.com/P28wp5tkGE — Jeffrey Cardona (@jeffreycardona1) March 31, 2019\nDid you see it?

Pictured is an artistic impression of what microbial life might look like\nVENUS: THE BASE\nVenus, the second planet from the sun, is a rocky world about the same size and mass as Earth.\nHowever, the atmosphere is radically different from ours: It consists of 96 percent carbon dioxide and has a surface temperature of 464 °C and a pressure 92 times that on Earth.\nThe inhospitable planet is shrouded in clouds of sulfuric acid that make its surface impossible to glimpse.\nIt has been suggested in the past that Venus probably had oceans similar to Earth’s — but these would have evaporated when it underwent a runaway greenhouse effect.\nThe surface of Venus is a dry desert landscape, which changes periodically due to volcanic activity.\nFacts and numbers\nTurnaround time: 225 days\nSurface: 460.2 million km²\nDistance from Zon: 108.2 million km\nDuration of the day: 116d 18h 0m\nRay: 6,051.8 km\nMass: 4.867 × 10^24 kg (0.815 M⊕)\nTheir models looked at a special feature of the dense atmosphere, namely the abundance of sulfur dioxide (SO2).\nOn Venus — the brightest natural object in Earth’s night sky after the moon — there are high levels of SO2 lower in the clouds, but it’s somehow “sucked out of the atmosphere” at higher elevations, the report said. scientists.\nOn Earth, most SO2 in the atmosphere comes from volcanic emissions.\ndr. Oliver Shorttle of Cambridge’s Department of Earth Sciences and Institute of Astronomy and a co-author of the study, said: ‘If life is present, it must influence atmospheric chemistry.\n“Could life be the reason SO2 levels on Venus are being reduced so much?”\nResearchers used a combination of atmospheric and biochemical models to study the expected chemical reactions, given the known sources of chemical energy in Venus’ atmosphere.\nThe models contain a list of metabolic reactions that the life forms would carry out to obtain their ‘food’, and the waste by-products.\nScientists have used the model to see if the reduction in SO2 levels can be explained by these metabolic reactions.\nThey found that the reactions can result in a drop in SO2 levels, but only by producing other molecules in very large quantities that are not seen.\nThe results suggested a hard limit to how much life could exist on Venus without blowing apart our understanding of how chemical reactions work in planetary atmospheres.\n“We looked at the sulfur-based ‘food’ available in Venus’ atmosphere — it’s not something you or I would want to eat, but it’s the main source of energy available,” Jordan said.\n“If that food is being consumed by life, we should see evidence of it by specific chemicals being lost and gained into the atmosphere.\n“If life were responsible for the SO2 levels we see on Venus, it would also break everything we know about Venus’ atmospheric chemistry.\n“But if life isn’t responsible for what we see on Venus, it’s still a problem to be solved — there’s a lot of strange chemistry to follow up on.”\nWhile there’s no evidence of sulphur-eating life hiding in Venus’ clouds, the researchers said their method of analyzing atmospheric signatures will be valuable when NASA’s $10 billion (£7.4 billion) James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will begin returning images from other planetary systems later this year.\nSome of the sulfur molecules in the current study are easy to spot with JWST, so learning more about our neighbor’s chemical behavior could help scientists find similar planets in the galaxy.\ndr. Shorttle said, ‘To understand why some planets are alive, we need to understand why other planets are dead.\nFor nearly 50 years, experts have been baffled by the presence of ammonia, a colorless gas made of nitrogen and oxygen, which was tentatively detected in the atmosphere of Venus in the 1970s.\n“If life could somehow sneak into the Venusian clouds, it would totally change the way we look for chemical signs of life on other planets.”\nEven if Venus has no life, the researchers said their results could be useful for studying the atmospheres of similar planets in the galaxy and the eventual detection of life outside our solar system.\ndr. Paul Rimmer, of Cambridge’s Department of Earth Sciences and Cavendish Laboratory, as well as a co-author of the study, said: ‘We have spent the past two years trying to explain the strange sulfur chemistry we see in the clouds of Venus.\n“Life is pretty good at weird chemistry, so we explored whether there’s a way to make life a possible explanation for what we see.\nEven if ‘our’ Venus is dead, it is possible that Venus-like planets in other systems harbor life.\n“We can take what we’ve learned here and apply it to exoplanetary systems — this is just the beginning.”\nThe study is published in the journal nature communication†\nCARBON DIOXIDE AND SULFURIC ACID DROPS IN THE ATMOSPHERE OF VENUS\nThe atmosphere of Venus is mostly carbon dioxide, with clouds of sulfuric acid droplets.\nThe thick atmosphere traps heat from the sun, resulting in surface temperatures over 470 °C (880 °F).\nThe atmosphere has many layers with different temperatures.\nAt the level of the clouds, about 50 km above the surface, it is about the same temperature as on the Earth’s surface.\nAs Venus moves forward in its orbit around the sun as it slowly spins backward on its axis, the highest level of clouds zips around the planet every four Earth days.\nThey are powered by hurricane-force winds at about 224 miles (360 km) per hour.\nAtmospheric lightning bolts illuminate these fast-moving clouds.\nSpeeds in the clouds decrease with the height of the clouds, and on the surface they are estimated to be only a few miles (km) per hour.\nOn the ground, it would look like a very hazy, cloudy day on Earth, and the atmosphere is so heavy it’s like you’re a mile deep under water.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Winds were so strong during the night that portions of the roof blew off the football stadium in Ålesund as the northwest coast took a pounding.\nWestern Norway was still getting hit the hardest on Tuesday, from Sørlandet beyond Hordaland as stormy weather slammed into the counties of Sogn og Fjordane and Møre og Romsdal Monday night and into Tuesday. More storm systems were on the way, according to the meteorologists.\nThe extreme weather system “Nina” that brought hurricane-force winds during the weekend was said to have made a “U-turn” between Iceland and Northern Norway, bringing more strong winds to coast of Nordland County as well. Warnings were posted for Helgeland, Saltfjellet, Salten and Ofoten on Tuesday.\nFerries were still halted and only two roads connecting eastern and western Norway were open over the mountains of southern Norway on Tuesday morning: State highway 52 over Hemsedal and the E16 over Filefjell. Main routes such as the E134 over Haukefjell and State Highway 7 over Hardangervidda were closed because of strong winds and snowdrifts.\nBergensbanen closed at Geilo\nSnowplow drivers simply gave up in some areas of the south on Monday.The situation was no better on Tuesday, with some areas lying under as much as 2.5 meters (more than eight feet) of snow.\nTrain lines were also affected, with Bergensbanen (the main line between Bergen and Oslo) closed between Geilo and Mjølfjell because of blocked tracks. State railway tried to offer alternative bus service but they’re delayed or halted as well because of closed roads.\nThousands of households remained without power, especially in Hordaland, and some elderly residents were temporarily moved to local nursing homes because they lacked heat at home.\nMany were also without mobile phone and Internet coverage after trees crashed over power and phone lines in the southwest. Telenor confirmed that 68 base stations were knocked out of operation in Hordaland while 16 base stations were down in Vest-Agder, where the storm hit the southern coast hard. Risør was among the towns where communications were severely disrupted.\nHighway 45 between Aust-Agder and Telemark remained closed after snow-clearing crews had to give up efforts to move huge mounds of snow. “We could hardly see any road, much less clear it,” one driver told Norwegian Broadcasting (NRK). New attempts were due to be made on Tuesday but more strong wind was expected that could hinder visibility.\nThe main road out of the popular ski center at Hovden at the northern end of Setesdal was also buried in snow and emergency crews were only allowing convoys of cars through the area.\nCalls poured in to insurance companies\nThe extent of damage caused by the extreme weather system called “Nina” became more clear on Monday with insurance companies reporting “enormous” numbers of calls for help. Emma Elisabeth Vennesland of insurance firm If Skadeforsikring said the firm received 750 calls on Sunday and another 920 by late Monday afternoon.\nHurricane-force winds especially damaged roof construction, while flooding destroyed many wharves and boat houses along the coast from Aust-Agder to Hordaland. Residents were once again warned of flying objects in the air that can be dangerous.\nThe other end of the country, in the far north, remained in the grip of an extreme cold snap, with temperatures of minus-40C on Monday in Karasjok again. The frigid weather halted school bus and other vehicular traffic in several areas of Finnmark but school officials said they’d only close if temperatures fell to minus-50.\nThere was some good news, as the sun returned in such northern venues as Lofoten, Harstad and Bardufoss. It was due to rise above the horizon in Tromsø on Thursday and in most of the rest of Northern Norway next week.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

No doubt they happen, and when they do, they are also doubtlessly noteworthy. I’m still waiting for one of those myself. In fairness, I guess I should admit that the wind can be consistent when it is strong and my destination is upwind.\nOver the last couple of years I have been distributing weather observation forms to cruising yachts, and I’ve gathered enough data to present a short summary of findings.\nI summarized the logs by first pulling out the wind observations and listing them. Then each observation is compared with the next one. The idea is that if wind speed is the same, then one probably doesn’t need to change sails. If wind direction is the same, one may need a sail change, but not to alter course. If both are the same, that is the \"classic\" tradewind passage, at least for as long as it lasts.\nHeart of Gold, a Schumacher 50, on a passage between Mopelia and Rarotonga in July 1993, however, showed no constant wind direction over a 72-hour period. It backed or veered constantly between south and west, with excursions through north. Wind speed was constant less than half the time. In this data, wind speed varies continually.\nLooking at all of the passage records in which I have compiled for the tropics, watch-to-watch wind speed stayed the same within one Beaufort force factor, or about five knots, 35% of the time; direction, 68% of the time; and both 18% of the time.\nThis compares with a winter passage back to San Francisco from Hawaii on which there were 14 occasions in 25 days (about one half of the observations) which had wind direction consistent between two or more observations. Variation on one watch of 20 or more degrees occurred in about 20 percent of the observations. The wind speed was equal between observations on seven occasions, comprising about 30% of the data.\nThe greatest wind speed variation between observations was three Beaufort force factors, but it also varied that much during one observation period 20 percent of the time, and two of the occasions of equal wind speed were force eight. In other words, the variables are more variable.\nBut on a coastal California passage in summer 1993, with observations every four hours, wind direction was constant in 50% of the observations. The most common direction was NW, 33% of the time. Wind direction and speed were constant in 37% of observations. Richard Henry Dana in Two Years Before the Mast did characterize the northwesterlies of California as a form of tradewind. I suppose that there are rare occasions when one could make a good tradewinds passage without touching a sheet. Normally, though, the passage would be pretty slow because one would be wandering off course a lot of the time, and to make up for the heavy stuff, one would be reefed even when it was light. I knew some people who did a 33-day passage from Moorea to Hawaii that way.\nAll of this can be put into perspective by looking at some data from the Atlas buoy chain. Atlas buoys were deployed in an array along the equator as a part of the effort to measure El Niño, and to formulate climatic models for tropical and global climate. The Tropical Ocean/Global Atmosphere (TOGA) project is a 10-year international effort started in 1985. TOGA Notes is published quarterly and contains articles with titles like \"Assimilation of Sea Level Data into a Primitive Equation Model of the Tropical Pacific.\"\nIn one of the more basic pieces, average buoy-observed wind speed for 1987-88 for the eastern tropical Pacific was approximately 11 knots, the bottom of Beaufort force 4, with a standard deviation of about three knots. In other words, two-thirds of the observations are within range of 5 to 17 knots, force 2 to force 5. These data are consistent with the yacht observations. For that matter, the October Pilot Chart of the South Pacific shows a wind rose at two degrees north and 132 degrees west that indicates no calms, and wind from the southeast 59% of the time, and from the east 34% of the time.\nFor the purpose of navigation by sail, the time scale of variation is more interesting and important than the simple average. The bad news is that unless one is either lucky or very slow, the chances are excellent that one will be changing sail constantly, even in the Trade Winds. The good news is that there are fewer gales and fewer radical changes in wind direction. Those changes in wind speed and direction that one can expect will be about half as frequent as those in the variable wind belt.\nCharles Warren lives in San Francisco and has voyaged in the Pacific.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Luckily, this October and November offer plenty of opportunities to be awestruck with no less than three meteor showers heading Earth’s way.\nDraconids – from 8 October\nThe temperamental annual meteor shower known as the Draconids peaks this week under dark skies, offering skywatchers a nearly perfect chance to see as many as two dozen shooting stars per hour.\nThe Draconids are predicted to reach peak performance in the predawn hours Friday morning, and some should remain visible Friday night.\nA shooting star streaks over Sweden's northern lights during the 2011 Draconids meteor shower. Image: EPA.\nMost years see about 20 shooting stars per hour at peak times, some years have seen those rates unexpectedly skyrocket and become true meteor storms.\nWhile unlikely and rare, these massive upticks in meteor numbers can also occur when Earth slams into an uncharted but particularly dense part of the meteor stream left behind by the parent comet.\nOne tip for the best viewing experience is to escape light-polluted cities to the dark countryside, where even the faintest meteors can be seen.\nNo need for telescopes or even binoculars, as the individual streaks of light can appear over large spans of the overhead sky. So it’s important to find a viewing spot, such as an open field, with unobstructed views of the entire sky.\nWhile the Draconids are best seen from the Northern Hemisphere, Slooh’s broadcast of the shower means no one has to miss out.\nThe Draconid meteors will appear to shoot from the constellation Draco in northern skies. Draco is a large constellation between the bright stars Vega and the North Star, with the Big Dipper near the horizon. Image: Andrew Fazekas using SkySafari.\nOrionids – from 20 October\nAlthough not as showy as the August Perseids, for example, the rather modest Orionids do have a claim to fame: They're the product of Halley’s comet.\n\"As Halley's comet orbits the sun, it has left behind dust that was liberated from the comet when it was warmed by its close passage to the sun, most recently in 1986,\" astronomer Michael Solontoi said.\n\"The Orionid meteor shower we see is the result of the Earth passing through this trail of debris deposited by the comet.\"\nA composite of the Orionids meteor shower. Image: Slooh Observatory.\nThe Orionids appear around the same time each year, when sand grain-size pebbles from Halley's debris stream race through the sky at speeds of more than 145,000 kilometres an hour.\nAt these high speeds, the pebbles disintegrate in Earth's upper atmosphere, creating streaks of light.\nLeonids – from mid-November\nThe Leonid meteor showers occur every year in mid-November, but some years are far better than others.\nPast Leonid events have been particularly spectacular— from 1999 to 2002, the yearly showers neared the intensity of \"meteor storms,\" when viewers spotted up to a thousand meteors an hour.\nThe Leonids are remnants of the Tempel-Tuttle comet, which follows a 33-year orbit that extends as far as the planet Uranus.\nThe showers are visible when Earth travels through debris left behind by the comet. Those particles, which can be as small as a grain of sand, appear as meteors streaking across the sky.\nEach year, Earth makes its way through different trails of debris, sparking varied displays of brightness.\nLeonid's meteors are the fastest, racing through the atmosphere at 71 kilometres a second.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Cyclone Nivar made landfall near Puducherry between 11.30 pm on Wednesday and 2.30 am on Thursday. The wind speed was around 100-120 kmph at the time of the cyclone making landfall. Though Cyclone Nivar is now likely to weaken into a cyclonic storm, heavy rains will continue in Chennai for the next two days, the Regional Meteorological Centre has said.\nAccording to the data provided by the Chennai Corporation, 267 trees have fallen due to Cyclone Nivar. The Corporation has cleared 223 trees till now, and efforts are underway to clear 44 trees. In 2020, to date, Chennai has lost 609 trees due to rain.\nIn another incident on Tuesday, a migrant worker from Bihar, Shabaj (27), was electrocuted to death, as per a report. Shabaj and 12 other construction workers were staying in a building in Koyambedu.\nThe rains had flooded the terrace of the building and Shabaj had gone to clear the water on the terrace when suddenly, a wire from a streetlight snapped due to the winds and fell into the water he was clearing, thereby electrocuting him. He was thrown due to the impact and was caught between the terrace and overhead cables.\nIn another incident, 33-year-old Kowsalya in Tambaram died of electrocution on Tuesday. Koswalaya had stepped out of her home to close the gates of her home when an overhead cable snapped and fell on her, electrocuting her to death.\nThe mishaps were reported in the suburban even as electricity was shut down in major places of the suburbs.

See About archive blog posts.\nSky watchers, mark your calendars: The 2011 Orionid meteor shower is on its way, and scientists say it’s expected to peak just before dawn on Oct. 21 and 22, otherwise known as Friday and Saturday of this week.\nThe Orionids occur each October as the Earth passes through a trail of dust left by Halley’s comet. When one of those dust particles — about the size of a grain of sand — enters Earth’s atmosphere, it excites the air molecules through which it passes, causing them to give off light.\nThe annual shower has been dubbed the Orionids because the meteors appear to be emanating from the constellation Orion.\nThis hasn’t been a great year for meteor shower watchers. The Perseids in August were all but obstructed by a full moon, and the Draconids this month might have been spectacular if we could have seen them. Alas, they peaked during daylight hours in the U.S.\nSky watchers can expect similar disappointing conditions for the Orionids.\nDon Yeomans, manager of NASA’s Near-Earth Object Program Office, explained that a large, waning crescent moon will be in view when the Orionids peak.\nAnd here’s some more bad news: The moon will also interfere with the peak of the Leonids meteor shower in November.\n‘The moon has just decided to wash out the meteor storms this year,’ Yeomans told The Times. ‘They are a subtle phenomena and you really need a dark sky. A bright moon nearby really ruins the show.’\nStill, Yeomans said, if you happen to be awake at 5 a.m. on Friday or Saturday, and especially if you live away from the city lights, it can’t hurt to look skyward.\n‘It’s not going to knock your socks off this year, but if you are out in the desert or up in the mountains, it is certainly worth a look,’ he said.\nThe 2011 Perseid meteor shower\nThe 2011 Draconid meteor shower\nThe 2011 Draconid meteor shower recap\n-- Deborah Netburn","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

There was extensive tree damage, which slowed recovery efforts after the storm.\nWood said the best time to prepare for the next major storm is to take steps now to make an emergency plan and prepare an emergency kit that will make sure they are ready for the next time a tropical system or blizzard approaches the province.\nStorms, like hurricanes and tropical storms, can cause heavy rain, wind, storm surges, flooding and property damage. He said people can prepare in advance by:\n- having an emergency kit with food, water, medications, important documents and supplies to last several days.\n- preparing property by trimming trees, securing loose items and cleaning gutters and storm drains.\n- making a plan for their families now, before one is needed.\nEnvironment and Climate Change Canada is warning of an active hurricane season, and while Nova Scotia has avoided any storms to date there have already been several tropical storms and hurricanes in the Atlantic. The newest storm, Lee, is expected to reach major hurricane status later this week. It’s way too early to determine if Lee will impact Atlantic Canada, but Wood said it’s important to be prepared.\n“It’s not a question of if, it’s a question of when,” he said. “If Fiona last year and Dorian in 2019 prove anything, it’s these storms can happen here and steps you take today in your home and around your property could help minimize the damage when the next storm comes.”\nFor more information, go to: https://www.cumberlandcounty.ns.ca/regional-emergency-management.html\nPeople can keep an eye on the forecast and alerts by monitoring the WeatherCAN mobile application, the website https://Canada.ca/weather .\nAdditional resources are available at:\nX (former Twitter) at https://twitter.com/nsemo .","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The advisor will expire at 7:45 PM CDT. Heavy rain associated with Hurricane Michael will cause small stream flooding in our area. 1 to 2+ inches of rain have already fallen in parts of Auburn and Opelika. Additional rain will cause ponding of water in low lying areas.\nThe following flood safety tips are from the National Weather Service:\n- If flooding occurs, get to higher ground. Get out of areas subject to flooding. This includes dips, low spots, drainage ditches, canyons, washes etc.\n- Avoid areas already flooded, especially if the water is flowing fast. Do not attempt to cross flowing streams. Turn Around Don't Drown™\n- Road beds may be washed out under flood waters. NEVER drive through flooded roadways - you do not know the condition of the road under the water. Turn Around Don't Drown™\n- Do not camp or park your vehicle along streams and washes, particularly during threatening conditions. Move to higher ground if heavy rain or rising water occurs. Creeks and streams can rise very rapidly during heavy rainfall.\n- Be especially cautious at night when it is harder to recognize flood dangers.\n- If you must evacuate your home, secure your home and if possible, turn off utilities at the main switches or valves if instructed to do so. Disconnect electrical appliances. Do not touch electrical equipment if you are wet or standing in water.\n- Do not walk through moving water. Six inches of moving water can make you fall.

So basically aurora season in Norway is from autumnal equinox to spring equinox, when the night sky is dark enough to display the beautiful light.\nHowever, it's not just a question of “when” but also “where”. The further north you are the more likely you'll see the aurora. The best location is anywhere within or just outside of the northern aurora belt, which is between northern latitudes of 60-70 degrees.\nAs if “when” and “where” isn't enough, there's also a “how”. The aurora lies well above the highest clouds, so you need clear skies to be able to see it. For the best aurora experience you should also try to avoid city lights.

Please be extremely wary of violent winds and high waves.\"\nThe agency also warned heavy rain could trigger landslides and flooding.\nJapan Airlines canceled 288 domestic and seven Asia-bound flights, affecting more than 32,000 passengers.\nAll Nippon Airways grounded 336 domestic flights, affecting nearly 40,000 people.\nEast Japan Railways, which operates a vast train network in the eastern and northern regions, including Tokyo, cancelled some commuter lines and a number of long-distance services.\nThe nation's main bullet train, linking Tokyo and Osaka, was experiencing delays after a brief suspension, but was running as of early evening.\nA number of trucks were blown over by the winds, creating localised traffic jams in Toyama prefecture.\nNHK also reported a recently-constructed 10,000-ton tanker, which was moored off Ehime Prefecture, had run aground.\nA train, carrying some 170 passengers, was stranded on the Seto-Ohashi Line for seven hours due to heavy winds on a bridge linking the main islands of Honshu and Shikoku, the network said.\nMany companies sent employees home early. Canon told about 14,000 workers mostly in Tokyo and neighbouring Kanagawa prefecture to leave before the storm worsened.\n\"Most of them use public transportation to commute. The rain isn't so strong yet (in Tokyo) but the storm is likely to intensify and could disrupt train and other services,\" said company spokesman Hirotomo Fujimori.\nFujitsu permitted 25,000 employees in Tokyo and neighbouring prefectures to go home early if they wish, according to a company spokesman.© AFP","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Now the rapidly-growing active region stretches across more than 100,000 km of the solar surface and contains multiple dark cores larger than Earth.\nMoreover, it has a complicated magnetic field that is crackling with C-class solar flares. The sunspot is inset in this magnetic map of the sun from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory:\nSunspots are islands of magnetism floating on the surface of the sun. Most sunspots, like most magnets, have two poles + (N) and – (S). Sunspot AR2736, however, has multiple poles with areas of + and – jostling against one another. This is why the sunspot is crackling with flares. Magnetic field lines of opposing polarity criss-cross and explode – a process known as magnetic reconnection.\nSolar minimum is underway\nIn the grand scheme of space weather, C-class solar flares are not considered to be major events. However, these explosions are noteworthy because the sun has recently been so quiet. Solar Minimum is underway. In context, C-flares represent a real uptick in solar activity. They can ionize the top of Earth’s atmosphere, disturb shortwave radio communications, and even hurl CMEs toward Earth.\nIndeed, one is heading our way now. Stay tuned.\nC4-class solar flare\nIndeed, northern spring began with a bang. On March 20th at 1118 UT, new sunspot AR2736 exploded, producing a C4-class solar flare that lasted more than an hour. The sunspot is inset in this image of the flare’s extreme ultraviolet flash:\nThe explosion sent minor waves of ionization rippling through Earth’s upper atmosphere and caused a shortwave radio “brownout” over southern parts of Europe and all of Africa. Anomalies in radio propagation at frequencies below 20 MHz might have been noticed by, e.g., mariners and ham radio operators.\nThe explosion also hurled a coronal mass ejection (CME) into space. NASA’s STEREO-A spacecraft saw the cloud racing away from the sun:\nAdditional images from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) confirm that the CME is heading for Earth. While the bulk of the cloud appears set to miss our planet, the flanks of the CME should deliver a glancing blow. Estimated time of arrival: Late on March 22nd or sometime on March 23rd. NOAA forecasters favor the March 23rd estimate. Either way, moderate G2 geomagnetic storms are possible when the CME arrives.\nKeep your eyes to the sky and look for northern lights!\nFollow us on FACEBOOK and TWITTER.

However, it is very difficult to construct an urban dust inventory, owing to its small horizontal scale and strong temporal/spatial variability. With the analysis of visual interpretation, maximum likelihood classification, extrapolation and spatial overlaying, we quantified dust source distributions of urban constructions, barrens and croplands in the Guanzhong Basin using various satellite data, including VHR (0.5 m), Lansat-8 OLI (30 m) and MCD12Q1 (500 m). The croplands were the dominant dust sources, accounting for 40% (17,913 km2) of the study area in summer and 36% (17,913 km2) in winter, followed by barrens, accounting for 5% in summer and 10% in winter. Moreover, the total constructions were 126 km2, including 84% of active and 16% inactive. In addition, 59% of the constructions aggregated on the only megacity of the study area, Xi'an. With high accuracy exceeding 88%, the proposed satellite-data based method is feasible and valuable to quantify distributions of dust sources. This study provides a new perspective to evaluate regional urban dust, which is seldom quantified and reported.

Basically, the impact of dirty smoke from ships burning high-sulfur fuel can be substantial, on some days accounting for nearly one-half of the fine, sulfur-rich particulate matter in the air known to be hazardous to human health.\nSampling air at the end of the pier at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, the scientists found that the smoke from ships contributed as much as 44 percent of the sulfate found in fine particulate matter in the atmosphere of coastal California. On the days when the proportion of ship sulfate approached one-half of the fine particulate matter in the air, the scientists determined from wind direction and speed calculations that ships burning high-sulfur fuel in the Los Angeles, Long Beach and San Diego ports were a major influence.\nSulfate particulates are particularly harmful to humans because they are especially fine microscopic particles, less than a millionth of a meter. That makes them able to travel extremely long distances and, unlike bigger dust grains and particles that are removed by the body if breathed in, the tiny particles can remain in the lungs.\nThe Port of Los Angeles, for example, can have a significant influence on air quality in San Diego because the particles travel so far, the study said.\nChemists developed a chemical fingerprinting technique that allowed the scientists to distinguish primary sulfate from ship smoke from the tailpipe emissions of trucks, cars and other sources. The researchers discovered that primary sulfates from ship engines incorporate molecular oxygen — the type we breathe in — and are easily distinguished from primary sulfates from car and truck diesel emissions.\nThe results have particular significance for the state which beginning next year will require that all tankers, cargo and cruise ships sailing into a California port switch to more expensive, cleaner-burning fuels when they come within 24 miles of the coast.\nSimilar international rules requiring clean-burning ship fuels are set to take effect in 2015.\nThe researchers said the chemical fingerprinting technique they developed could assist the California Air Resources Board, as well as regulators in other states and countries, monitor the impacts of ships off their coasts as new restrictions on bunker oil burning by ships are implemented.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The trails form because Perseid meteors are fast — their speeds top 125,000 mph (200,000 km/h). Usually, Perseid meteors appear white or bluish white.\nIn 2018, the New Moon fortuitously occurs August 11, so our normally brilliant satellite will be absent during the shower’s peak, which falls on the night of August 12 and the morning of the 13th. If you see the Moon at all, it will be a thin crescent low in the western sky that will set an hour or so after the Sun. Perhaps the only negative about this year’s Perseids is that the peak occurs on a Sunday night into Monday morning, so work commitments may limit the number of people who actually view the shower.\nMost astronomy clubs host observing sessions either on the night of the shower’s predicted maximum or on a weekend night close to it. If you’re not doing serious meteor counting, all you’ll need to bring is a lawn chair, some snacks, and your eyes.\nTelescopes do a great job of magnifying objects, but they severely restrict your field of view, a negative for meteor watching. Binoculars also restrict your view, so don’t observe the shower through them. Instead, if you have binoculars nearby, you can use them to catch a close-up view of a meteor’s smoke trail after spotting it with your naked eye.\nMeteors are tiny dust-size particles of rock and metal that Earth passes through as it orbits the Sun. Astronomers call these particles meteoroids when they are floating freely in space, but when they burn up in the atmosphere, they become meteors. If they survive the fiery ordeal of passage through our thick blanket of air to land on the ground, they are then known as meteorites. No meteorites come from meteor showers — the particles are too small.\nMost meteor showers originate with comets. When a comet swings around the Sun, our star’s heat boils off ice and with it, trapped dusty debris. When the debris trail’s orbit crosses Earth’s orbit, we experience a meteor shower. The exception to the comet rule is the Geminid shower, which occurs in December. That event’s particles originate with dust coming from the asteroid 3200 Phaethon.\nBy the way, astronomers call this particular shower the Perseids because if you trace all the meteor trails backward, they meet within the boundaries of the constellation Perseus the Hero. The point of origin (the direction in space toward which Earth is heading) is called the radiant. A good visual approximation of the radiant is the famous Double Cluster in Perseus (NGC 869 and NGC 884).\nAugust 12 isn’t the only night you can observe Perseids. This year, the shower will be active between about July 17 and August 24. Of course, you’ll see fewer meteors the further you observe from the date of the peak.\nHow many Perseids will you see? Meteor counters use a quantity called the zenithal hourly rate (ZHR). This is the number of meteors visible per hour for an observer under a dark sky with no scattered light and with the radiant positioned directly overhead. The ZHR for the Perseids is 110. This year, with the Moon out of the sky, you can expect to count between 80 and 90 meteors per hour from a dark site — a terrific rate!\nAll meteor showers are exciting events, but this summer’s Perseids rank at the top. Be comfortable, have fun, and get ready for some oohs and aahs.\nAstronomy Senior Editor Michael E.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It just will not be with the storm that is forecast for this Saturday. All models now agree that with the dominating low pressure system taking up initial residence near the Great Lakes, it will mean too much warm air in most of New Jersey regions to allow for much snow.\nExpect most, if not all, areas to see precipitation starting with snow on Saturday morning. The snow will quickly change to ice and then sleet in the afternoon, before changing to all rain throughout all areas except extreme northwestern New Jersey. Accumulation in most areas will be a slushy coating to perhaps an inch, with perhaps up to three inches in higher elevations in the northwest portion of the state. Roads will be messy throughout Saturday, so exercise caution when driving.\nThe other thing the experts are all in agreement on is that this is the beginning of a steady pattern of storms likely to occur over the next two to three weeks. Colder air will take up residence in New Jersey for the extended period, and the long range forecasts are starting to show a likely steady pattern of what could be significant snowstorms happening between the period near January 21 and 22 and continuing through the second week of February.

We examine in this article the meteorological driver of this disaster, its social and financial costs, and what lies in the future.\nWhat are atmospheric rivers?\n“Atmospheric rivers” are large, narrow streams of water vapour that travel through the sky. They usually start from warm and moist tropical ocean regions near the equator. In the case of the BC floods, the powerful moisture-laden rivers moved to the mountainous BC coast, and the water vapour condensed into precipitation that resulted in record rainfall.\nA devastating flood\nThe flood event was catastrophic, in both human and financial terms. At the peak of the flood emergency, almost 15,000 people were evacuated from their homes. There were 4 fatalities from the highway mudslides due to the flooding. Dikes were not able to hold the flood water back in the Sumas Valley, a low-lying prime farming area in the province. Many farms and homes were destroyed, and the death toll among livestock included more than 600,000 poultry, 12,000 hogs, 420 dairy cattle and 120 beehives. Many farmers lost not only their homes, but their livelihoods as well, and face a long and expensive road to recovery.\nThe Insurance Bureau of Canada estimates the insured damage due to the flooding to be $450 million (Canadian), and calls it the “most costly severe weather event in the province’s history”. The overall costs are expected to be much higher as only a fraction of the total damage is covered by flood insurance. A senior economist at the Bank of Montreal noted the total cost of the BC floods could be comparable to the 2013 flood in Calgary, Alberta, estimated at $7.5 billion. In both cases, the costs are shared by insurers, individuals, private companies, taxpayers, and municipal, provincial and federal governments.\nWhat about the future?\nClimate science shows we will see more precipitation extremes as long as global warming continues. We will also continue to experience their costly impacts.\nCBC News reported on a recent study by climate scientists at Environment and Climate Change Canada, which shows the increase in frequency and intensity of regional heavy rainfall in North America is largely due to global warming. Moreover, we will experience further increases in these extremes as warming continues. Storms that would happen once every 100 years in a climate without human influence now happen every 20 years due to global warming. If the warming continues to reach 2oC above pre-industrial temperatures, those storms would happen once every 5 years.\nPrecipitation extremes are a major cause of flooding. We are already experiencing the large social and financial impacts of flooding events. These impacts are caused not by heavy rainfall alone; other factors, such as past land use change that increase our exposure to flooding, and dikes that fail to retain flood waters are also important. The need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to increase our resilience through adaptation, has never been more urgent.\nCharles is a retired atmospheric scientist based in Toronto. He stays busy as founder and lead of ImpactNetZero, keeping healthy in mind and body, and reading stories to his two grandchildren.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The outlook is not particularly sunny.\nNOAA is now saying the season “has the potential to be extremely active and could be the most active since 2010.” That year, NOAA forecast an 85 percent chance of an above-normal season and, in fact, there were 19 named storms and 12 hurricanes, including five major hurricanes.\nIn a “normal” season, NOAA would expect 12 named storms, six hurricanes, and three major hurricanes.\nIn May of this year, the NOAA team placed the likelihood of an above-average season at 45 percent. This week’s update ups the likelihood to 60 percent. If NOAA is correct, this would mark the second consecutive above-average season.\nSo it’s important to remember that Graham Architectural products is a recognized leader in the design and manufacture of hurricane-resistant windows. All of our window styles are available in hurricane-resistant versions, and our experienced engineers and highly knowledgeable staff make sure the job is done right and in compliance with project requirements.\nArchitectural Record recently published a Graham-sponsored AIA-accredited continuing education course, titled “Shelter from the Storm”. The course serves as a highly detailed introduction to hurricane-resistant windows and doors.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The line is expected to remain closed today while repair work is carried out.\nThose looking to make an early getaway before the worst of the weather sets in have been hit by minor problems, with some ferries between England and France delayed due to poor weather.\nAnd train companies have already looked ahead to tomorrow, advising customers to plan their journeys around the heavy winds to avoid the risk of disruption.\nVirgin Trains said s trong winds were expected from Monday afternoon and that delays are “likely”.\nA spokesman said: “If you are due to travel in the afternoon or evening on Monday, you are advised to travel today or on Monday morning.\n“Tickets dated for travel on Sunday or Monday will be accepted for travel on any train on either day.\n“All peak travel restrictions until close of play on Tuesday 24 are lifted.”\nSome speed restrictions will also be put in place.\nEast Midlands Trains have planned alterations to some services to take the weather into account.\nA travel notice said: “At present, it is not known the exact level of service which will be provided, but it is anticipated that approximately two trains per hour will run between Sheffield/Derby/Nottingham and all other stations to/from London St Pancras International from 12:00.\n“East Midlands Trains are advising passengers with tickets dated for Monday, December 23 that they may travel today. Advance purchase ticket holders may also travel on services earlier than the time specified on the ticket.”\nA spokesman for the Rail Delivery Group, which speaks on behalf of the rail industry, said: “Many rail staff will be working throughout the night to monitor the weather and to keep passengers safe and informed.\n“Some operators are lifting restrictions to allow people with tickets for travel on Monday to travel today. Customers should check National Rail Enquiries or speak to their train company.”\nThe Environment Agency said p eople are urged to stay away from promenades along the south coast on Monday and Tuesday because of the wet and windy conditions.\nDavid Jordan, Environment Agency director of operations, said: “Tragically people die because they’ve taken risks and attempted to drive through flood water just to save a few minutes.\n“Flood water is dangerous. If there is widespread flooding in your area then don’t travel and if a road is closed then turn around and make a detour. Your journey could take you a little longer but making the right decision could ultimately save your life.\n“Unsettled weather is set to continue throughout the Christmas period, with heavy rain and wind affecting many parts of England, so people should check the flood forecast on the Environment Agency website to help plan - and sign up to flood warnings.”\nDarron Burness, head of the AA’s flood rescue team, said: “ Three-quarters of cars that get stuck are written-off as it only takes a tiny amount of ingested water to wreck the engine. You’re also putting yourself at risk as flood water can mask all manner of hazards, for example open manholes, and just one foot or 30 centimetres of moving water can float your car.\n“Moving flood water, particularly, is powerful, relentless and deceptively dangerous, so just stay out.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Target: Tampa and RNC.\nDon’t think you would be so nonplussed if you lived on the gulf coast. A hurricane anywhere along the gulf would be incredibly dangerous.\nWeather Underground 5-day forecast has it heading for Texas:\nThe models are pretty divided, but yes, that’s the current thinking. It will likely sit and spin for a while since there are no strong steering currents presently.\nIts been raining in Venice Florida for a week on and off...today its been on all day...very seldom do you get an all day rain around here...usually a thunderstorm and an inch of rain in a hour and gone..\nHang on Galveston...\nI believe this formed from the remnant of a cold front.

Maybe you are...which could explain your handle...and attitude.\nTime for bigger AC unit!!\nBuy gas now!\nNope. Formed as a part of the monsoon trof that was in the Caribbean. We've (I'm a meteorologist) been watching it for the better part of a week. The computer models, the global models anyway, have been forecasting it to develop over the Gulf over the weekend and they were right.\nI would think Debbie would target Dallas.\nMay be sound advice. Oil cos. shutting down rigs as I type...Getting nasty out there.\nWhere do you live in Florida? It’s been pretty wet here in St Augustine (NE FL) for about six weeks, which is actually earlier than our usual “afternoon thundershowers” pattern.\nWe have had a fair number of nor’easters, in addition to the storms that we say “come from Gainesville”, meaning from the west or the Gulf. It was dry last year but so far, not this year.\nThis appears to be a very slow moving tropical storm. I recall one in South Flordia a few years ago that dumped 20 inches of ran and did enormous damage.Pays to always be apprised of what these things are doing.\nWhere to Gulf storms tend to form? In the Gulf itself, or do they more often move into the Gulf as existing hurricanes?\nWe recently moved to Houston from VA and I’ve never paid a lot of attention to where they originate in this region.\nDisclaimer: Opinions posted on Free Republic are those of the individual posters and do not necessarily represent the opinion of Free Republic or its management.

A sliver of hope that maybe the forecast models have changed and it'll be nice and 72 for a few days, not any more of this 90+ stuff, right?\nWell, I have one word for you:\nNo dice :( Still a very hot pattern in store through Monday. We made it to the low 90s today around Seattle and we have another clear and uncomfortably warm night for the Puget Sound region on tap with lows only in the mid 60s, and barely at that. Seattle went from 68 to 64 and back to 68 within the three pre-dawn hours this morning. I suspect more of the same tonight.\nWe should see some slight cooling Friday and Saturday but maybe \"cooling\" isn't the right word here but \"lowering of expected high temperatures a bit\" as highs should still reach the upper 80s. Same story for Fourth of July Saturday: Sunny and hot with highs in the upper 80s.\nSunday we actually still are trending the *other* way with perhaps a day of east wind that will bake the entire region -- no more smug Hoquiamians (?) taunting us with their upper 60s. Highs everywhere should get to around 90 with mid-to-dare-I-say-upper 90s around Seattle and environs. If summer really does begin on July 5th as it does most years in Seattle, I surrender.\nMonday will have the same \"lowering of expected high temperatures a bit\" to the upper 80s and low 90s with continued sunshine.\nThere still remains some hope for more significant cooling as we get into the middle of the week as the marine breezes finally return, although let's not get carried away. It doesn’t look like we'll have much for morning clouds and highs should still get into the low-mid 80s, which admittedly will probably feel like paradise whereas three years ago we'd all be running for Alaska at the sight of an 85.\nSo there, that's one reason to have come to check the forecast. Looking for rain? At this point, still wishful thinking...\nFollow me on Twitter @ScottSKOMO and on Facebook for frequent updates on Seattle and Puget Sound area weather.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Officials have said that Las Vegas could even surpass its record-high temperature of 117F.\nPowerful fire tornado in California is latest extreme weather sign\nA fire tornado has been captured on video at the Tennant fire in northern California. It is one of the latest signs of extreme weather threatening the US West, which is facing severe drought and record high temperatures.

Kennedy International Airport in Queens experienced departure delays up to an hour and 15 minutes long due to the weather conditions. LaGuardia Airport in Queens experienced departure delays up to an hour and 45 minutes in length.\nA travel advisory was issued by New York City Emergency Management as a result of the weather conditions, New York State Senator Andrew Gounardes announced.\nA Con Edison power plant in Queens caught fire on Thursday night after a transformer was struck by lightning. According to Brooklyn News 12, the power lines were not damaged and no outages were reported as a result of the incident.\n“It’s been very humid over the Northeast and specifically in New York City all week long,” AccuWeather Senior Meteorologist Bob Larson said. The past few afternoons have brought thunderstorms to the city day after day.\nWhile the conditions were not directly from Tropical Storm Elsa, which made its way into the city the following day, Larson said Elsa has caused the humidity in the city to be increased.\nIncreasing Glacial Melt in High Mountain Asia Can’t Be Controlled, New Report Details\nRecent research shows High Mountain Asia’s current situation, and things don’t look that good.\nAs per new findings, the glaciers in the area have been melting a lot quicker in recent years than previously believed. Also, the glacier melt occurred even in regions where glaciers were still growing.\nResearchers warn us about the rising summer temperatures and the consequences.\nIt’s Some of America’s Richest Farmland. But What Is It Without Water?\nPoliticians must respond to the latest warnings that climate science has underestimated risks\nLast week’s shockingly high temperatures in the northwestern US and Canada were – and are – very frightening. Heat and the fires it caused killed hundreds of people, and are estimated to have killed a billion sea creatures. Daily temperature records were smashed by more than 5C (9F) in some places. In Lytton, British Columbia, the heat reached 49.6C (121F). The wildfires that consumed the town produced their own thunderstorms, alongside thousands of lightning strikes.\nAn initial study shows human activity made this heat dome – in which a ridge of high pressure acts as a lid preventing warm air from escaping – at least 150 times more likely. The World Weather Attribution Group of scientists, who use computer climate models to assess global heating trends and extreme weather, have warned that last week exceeded even their worst-case scenarios. While it has long been recognised that the climate system has thresholds or tipping points beyond which humans stand to lose control of what happens, scientists did not hide their alarm that an usually cool part of the Pacific northwest had been turned into a furnace. One climatologist said the prospect opened up by the heat dome “blows my mind”.\nThe disturbing signs of climate disruption are not limited to north America. Pakistan and Siberia have also had record-breaking high temperatures within the last few weeks, as have Moscow, Helsinki and Estonia. In Madagascar, the worst drought in 40 years has left a million people facing food shortages. The climate author David Wallace-Wells suggested that current conditions should be regarded as heralding a “permanent emergency”. With policymakers struggling to absorb the very serious implications for human societies of current models, it is frankly difficult to take in the suggestion that these models may underestimate the threat. The prospect of the jet stream becoming locked, and weather systems such as tropical storms ceasing to move in the way to which we are accustomed, carries nightmarish possibilities. More hot weather is on its way to California, with the bulk of the wildfire season ahead.\nIf there is anything positive to be taken from this new information, and reports of the suffering and destruction caused by the heat, it can only be that it intensifies the pressure on policymakers to act. On Wednesday, the Switzerland-based Financial Stability Board issued a warning in advance of a G20 meeting in Venice this weekend. It urged finance ministers and central banks to take more notice of “far-reaching” climate impacts. Just how far-reaching these impacts will be depends on decisions taken by governments in the next months and years. So far, binding commitments to make the cuts in carbon emissions that are needed to avoid temperature rises above 2C are notable by their absence. With every worrying piece of climate news, the stakes ahead of November’s Cop26 conference keep growing.\nEnvironmentalists used to shake their heads when highly unusual weather was reported in terms that ignored climate change’s contribution. Now, thanks to attribution science, the link is firmly made. To avoid future heat domes, countries including the US and Canada must stop pumping so much energy into the climate system.\nWhat comes to mind when I see stuff like above I am reminded of this.\nThinking your electric car is “clean” is a bit like thinking your dog is “clean” because it craps in the next-door neighbour’s garden\nOne thought on “The World on Fire – 10 July, 2021”\nKuwait – 54C in the shade. https://www.bitchute.com/video/hwLoFyZAmVXR/","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A rare September storm has brought rain, wind and even snow to the state.\nSnow has been falling in Red River since about 7 p.m. Tuesday night. This is the earliest Red River has seen snowfall.\nThe previous record was set on Sept. 17, 1971. The area is expected to see about eight inches of snow.\nThe New Mexico Department of Transportation is working to keep the roads clear despite the winter storm. Officials said they're worried about slick roads on Raton Pass, so they're reminding drivers to be extra careful.\nNear Chama, the New Mexico Red Cross is helping Rio Arriba County officials after heavy snow damaged several campsites and RV's. Roughly 50 campers were displaced, but no injuries were reported. Officials with the Chama Fire Department said they're using the First Baptist Church as an evacuation shelter.\nWinds in Albuquerque peaked at over 70 mph at the Sunport Tuesday evening.

The fourth flood in almost two months, as South and South-West India struggle to survive in a situation far from ideal, should be a cause of concern for India and the world.\nMumbai received 2319 mm of rainfall alone in the month of August while the annual average is 2260 mm. While there was very little rainfall recorded during June and July, the first week of August saw Mumbai receiving the heaviest downpour it has seen since 1974.\nThe Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) has been quoted as saying, “Strong south-westerly monsoonal flow over the Arabian Sea with wind speed reaching upto 60-70 km per hour along and off the west coast at lower tropospheric levels is likely to continue to prevail during the next two days.”\nAn orange alert was issued by the weather department for Ratnagiri, Sindhudurg, Pune, Kolhapur, and Satara districts.\nUddhav Thackeray, CM, took inventory of the state’s administration preparedness in the wake of the heavy downpour in Mumbai and other regions. A statement was released where the authorities were asked to exercise caution and ensure the safety of the citizens.\nAt the same time, a red alert has been issued in the Wayanad, Idukki, Malappuram, Kozhikode and Kannur districts in Kerala by the IMD due to incessant rainfall.\nA landslide on August 7, in Kerala, claimed atleast 35 lives with more bodies estimated to be trapped under the debris. The National Disaster Response Force (NRDF) has been deployed and support from the Indian Air Force (IAF) has been requested by the state government.\nFor the regions of Pathanamthitta, Alappuzha, Kottayam, Ernakulam, Thrissur, Palakkad and Kasargod, an orange alert has been issued for August 9.\nThe Thiruvananthapuram meteorological department has stated that the presence of a low-pressure area in the Bay of Bengal will further aggravate the rains till August 9. Pinarayi Vijayan, the Chief Minister of Kerala announced ex gratia of Rs. 5 lakhs to the victims’ families.\nDue to heavy rains, the state of Karnataka has also experienced flood-like situations in many regions of the state. Due to the increase in the influx of water, numerous dams including Alamatti and Kabini dams, have been releasing their water and the Tungabhadra dam has reached its maximum capacity.\nProjects which are industrial and may be beneficial from a business point of view should be carefully assessed and the catastrophic influence it will have on our environment should be judged thoroughly before we go ahead with it. This should be a cause for caution for everyone as extreme weather conditions are becoming the new normal.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This is my favourite time of year as the temperature in mid-March is usually mild and pleasant, with warm day time temperatures, cool evenings, and occasional rain.\nIn Summer this area of the country enjoys long hot summer days, with very little rain.\nThe average temperature here in July is 25°C (77°F) to 28°C (82°F). Unfortunately, we also experience some days of high humidity. This high humidity, along with unstable weather, can cause tornadoes to form once or twice each decade.\nIn Autumn we experience beautiful fall in Southern Ontario.\nWe have the most vibrant fall colours when all the trees begin to shed their leaves - scarlet, crimson, orange and yellow, in every hue and shade you can imagine. The days in fall are getting cooler and shorter, but the days are still sunny and warm.\nWinter brings with it the beauty of the snow covered landscape, along with challenging driving conditions, when blizzards and \"white outs\" cause numerous traffic accidents!\nIn January our temperatures average -6°C (21°F) to 0°C (32°F). Sometimes, during a cold spell, the temperature may drop below -30°C (-22°F) in some parts of Southern Ontario, while in the Southwest and the Niagara region, the temperature hardly ever drops below -20°C (-4°F).\n|Weather data for Southern Ontario (St Thomas / London area)|\n|Average high °C (°F)||-1|\n|Average low °C (°F)||-9|\n|Precipitation cm (inches)||10|\n|Source: Weatherbase [⁶] March 2009|\nEnvironment Canada - current weather conditions\nSelect your community from the list provided, and check the current and projected conditions\nSnow - road conditions in Ontario\nDetailed map of winter road conditions in Southern Ontario\nEducational information from the Weather Network\nA glossary of meteorological terms - useful for adults and children, and there are also games and activities\nMar 31, 23 07:00 AM\nMar 30, 23 10:00 AM\nMar 29, 23 08:00 AM","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The magnetic field of the Sun plays a great part in how we see this image. The bright areas shows us hot and dense gas that's captured by the magnetic field of the Sun. The dark and empty areas are places where the magnetic field of the Sun reaches into space so that hot gas can escape. That's why it's called a coronal hole. They get the dark colour because there isn't enough hot material.\nThe magnetic field around a coronal hole is different than the rest of the Sun. Instead of returning to the surface, these magnetic field lines stay open and stretch out into space. At the moment we do not yet know where they reconnect. Instead of keeping the hot gas together, these open magnetic field lines cause a coronal hole to form, where solar wind can escape at high speeds. When a coronal hole is positioned near the centre of the Earth-facing solar disk, these hot gasses flow to Earth and cause geomagnetic disturbances on Earth with enhanced auroral activity on high latitudes. Depending on the size and location of the coronal hole on the disk, more or less auroral activity can be expected. Coronal holes are usually not interesting for middle latitude sky-watchers and often do not even produce geomagnetic storming conditions. Other than a coronal mass ejection, a coronal hole high speed stream (CH HSS) arrives slowly with first a steady increase in the solar wind density followed by an increase in solar wind speed while the density is falling.\n|Predicted Kp max||4|\nA lot of people come to SpaceWeatherLive to follow the Sun's activity or if there is aurora to be seen, but with more traffic comes higher server costs.

They tracked the anticipated path of 17,000 storms and calculated the damage when the storms struck land.\nChina and the United States will suffer the highest annual damage, the study predicts — US$25 billion and US$15 billion, respectively — as they will have the largest economies.\nDamage costs will also increase rapidly in East Asia, and Central America and the Caribbean, where economic growth is expected to be high.\n\"Hurricane damage in the Central America and Caribbean region — currently about US$2 billion a year — will rise to US$14.7 billion a year by 2100, US$4.7 billion from increased assets and US$10 billion from climate change-related cyclone damage,\" lead author Robert Mendelsohn, a researcher at the Yale School of Forestry and Environmental Studies, United States, told SciDev.Net.\nSeveral islands in the Caribbean 'hurricane alley' will be particularly badly affected, he said, because coasts are vulnerable to cyclones and hurricanes there affect the whole nation.\nEconomic damage from tropical cyclones is predicted to be less than US$1 billion a year in Europe and South America because they have fewer storms, and in Africa because \"there is relatively little in harm's way\", the paper says.\nWilliam Nordhaus, who studies the impact of tropical cyclones at the Yale centre but was not involved in the study, told SciDev.Net that \"the paper's innovation was to simulate future tropical cyclones and make damage estimates for other countries. More work along the same lines and the development of alternative cyclone simulation models would be useful.\"\nBut Judith Curry, an atmospheric scientist at the US-based Georgia Institute of Technology, said she did not see the point in making projections 90 years in the future. \"The uncertainties are huge: 10–30 years would be more plausible — and more useful.\"\nNature Climate Change doi:10.1038/nclimate1357 (2012)","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Experts believe the rise was caused by exceptionally warm ocean water.\nParts of Kazakhstan, Indonesia, Spain, South Korea and central and north-western Australia experienced the hottest temperatures, according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).\nTemperatures during the first five months of 2014 smashed records in California by five degrees Celsius, but the remainder of the US failed to near its highest temperatures following a polar vortex earlier in the year.\nDr Kim Cobb, a climate scientist at Georgia Tech, said that it is likely that records will continue to be broken, particularly as experts predict an El Niño weather pattern is likely to combine with the effects of man-made global warming, the Telegraph reported.\nEl Niño occurs when waters on the Pacific equator are unusually warm, which can lead to disruptive changes in ocean and wind currents across the world.\nAlthough ocean temperatures hit a record high in May, it is not classed as an El Nino event as the warm water has not yet changed the air temperature, the NOAA said.\nParts of the north eastern Atlantic, small sections of the north western and south eastern Pacific, and the ocean waters off the southern tip of South America were cooler than average.\nThe expected trend in warmer weather and broken records is likely to bolster climate change campaigners, particularly as May was 0.74 degrees Celsius warmed than the world average during the 20th century.\n“[The high temperatures] should remind everyone that global warming is a long-term trend,” Princeton University climate scientist Michael Oppenheimer told the newspaper.\n- 1 Isis burns thousands of books and rare manuscripts from Mosul's libraries\n- 2 Scarlett Johansson new band 'already hit with legal complaint' from another The Singles\n- 3 Husband and wife die holding hands within hours of each other after 67 years of marriage\n- 5 'Jihadi John': CAGE representative storms off Sky News accusing Kay Burley of Islamaphobia\nLiam Gallagher brands Kanye West 'utter s**t' during BRIT Awards performance\nIsis burns thousands of books and rare manuscripts from Mosul's libraries\nHusband and wife die holding hands within hours of each other after 67 years of marriage\nMohammed Emwazi: Family of man named as 'Jihadi John' described by neighbours as 'normal Muslim family'\nMohammed Emwazi: Nine things we know about man named as Isis militant 'Jihadi John'\nOscars 2015: Birdman beats Boyhood as Eddie Redmayne and Patricia Arquette win big - as it happened\nNew theory could prove how life began and disprove God\nHalf of Ukip voters say they are prejudiced against people of other races\n'Cash for access' scandal: Sir Malcolm Rifkind says 'unrealistic' for MPs to live on £67,000 salary\nAqsa Mahmood branded a 'disgrace' by her parents after claims she recruited three UK girls flying to Middle East\nThis is what it's like to be dead, according to a guy who died for a bit\n£23000 - £26000 per annum: Recruitment Genius: This small, friendly, proactive...\n£14500 - £22800 per annum: Recruitment Genius: This is a fantastic opportunity...\nNegotiable: Recruitment Genius: A Software Developer is required to join a lea...\nExcellent Salary: Austen Lloyd: A first rate opportunity to join a top ranking...","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The fiery visitor, which appeared brighter than the near full moon for most people, streaked across the sky at around 5:20 p.m. EST, according to the American Meteor Society (AMS).Most witness reports had come from Connecticut, but people from Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire and Maine also reported seeing a bright streak in the night sky. Based on the reports, the estimated trajectory of the object is from southwest Vermont heading north and terminating over Rutland County.\nWGME13 News’ chief meteorologist Charlie Lopresti posted a photo of the fireball along with the following tweet: “Great viewer photo from Plum Island Beach in MA of the \"fireball\" reported by hundreds around 5:30PM yesterday.”\n\"I thought there was a plane crashing or something,\" Hyannis resident Nick Franco, told Amy Anthony of Cape Cod Times. He was at the Hyannisport Club with his son, Nicholas, 11, when they saw the meteor. \"It was very impressive.\"\n\"It was so big and so bright,\" said Kathleen Thomas of South Yarmouth. Thomas was driving on Route 28 in West Dennis when she saw the meteor. \"I thought it was a plane crash.\"\nAs of 9 p.m. EST Sunday night, more than 100 reports had filtered into the AMS website.\n\"You can have a meteor any old time,\" Peter Kurtz, the treasurer for the Cape Cod Astronomical Society, told the Cape Cod Times.\nKurtz, who did not see the meteor himself, said such a phenomenon is quite common. He noted that it could be possible that this meteor is a remnant of the recent meteor shower – the Quadrantids – or possibly just a “random” visitor.\nThe AMS released a heat map (shown above) showing the concentrations of meteor reports from Sunday night’s event.\nScott Sutherland of Geekquinox posted in a blog that dozens of fireballs burn through the atmosphere every single day. Most go unnoticed because they happen over the world’s oceans, over remote areas of land or they occur during times when viewing conditions are obscured by daylight or clouds.\nStill, rare sightings do occur, as was the case with the Chelyabinsk meteor that exploded over Russia in February 2013 or the fireball that was seen by at least a thousand people in Iowa and Minnesota just after Christmas.\nSutherland claims that this fireball may have been a “sporadic” – one that is not associated with any particular meteor shower.\n“However, there is some small potential for the debris from Comet ISON to encounter our atmosphere right around now. The grains of dust blasting off the comet as it passed Earth's orbit were figured to be extremely tiny, so if we encounter them at all, we probably won't see much out of it (maybe some 'noctilucent clouds'). However, ISON gave us some nice surprises before it burned up, so who knows, it may surprise us again,” wrote Sutherland in his blog.\nAccording to the AMS, the best place to look for any possible remnants of Comet ISON would be toward the constellation Leo, which rises about 8 p.m. and sets well after sunrise.\nAs for the New England fireball, experts said it is rare to actually see a meteor as bright as, or even brighter than, the moon. Of course, meteors of this brightness are not uncommon, given the perspective of the planet as a whole. The most typical bright fireballs are associated with chunks of space debris that enter Earth’s atmosphere. And with an increasing age of interconnectivity, we tend to hear about such events all the more often.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Wednesday marks Katrina’s 7th anniversary.\nVOA correspondent Brian Padden is in the city. He said there are few signs of life on the streets.\n“I had a chance to drive throughout the city. I have been driving throughout the lower 9th ward,” he said. “It is basically a ghost town right now. Most people are sheltered in their house or have been self-evacuated.”\nPadden said the weather appears to be taking a turn for the worse.\n“It started off this morning quite pleasant. Some sunshine peaking through clouds. Just a small amount of wind,” he said. “And, it has been significantly deteriorating since then. Right now, we have a steady rainfall.”\nNew Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu told residents to be prepared to live without regular water or power supplies for several days. He also urged them to leave if an evacuation order is issued.\nIsaac battered eastern Cuba Saturday, after killing at least 19 people in Haiti, which is still recovering from a devastating 2010 earthquake. Two people were killed in the Dominican Republic. There were no reports of fatalities in Cuba.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Students, faculty and staff probably could’ve gotten here, but I’d rather be safe.”\nMost area high schools and the University of Cincinnati, Xavier University and Thomas More College were closed, along with some local businesses and clinics.\n“The main concern was ice,” Todd said.\nAt 4 a.m., they had made the decision to keep NKU open, but when the weather called for more ice at 4:30 a.m., Blake said they decided to close.\n“We’ve just been fortunate,” he said of the winter weather in the past few years. “It just so happens the snow has hit during breaks.”\nThe university has only closed one other full day since 2004 and has had two half days, including the Feb. 6 closing at 3 p.m.\nRoad crews worked through most of the Monday, Feb. 12 night to keep sidewalks and roads clear at NKU. The crew of 17 stopped during mid-morning Feb. 13 for a few hours of break. They resumed later that afternoon. Every NKU vehicle capable of snow removal, which is about 10, worked during the ice, rain and snowstorm that hit most of the tri-state.\nThe blast of wind-driven snow and plunging temperatures hit Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky early Tuesday, Feb. 12 and was the cause for traffic delays, vehicle accidents, school and business closings and flight cancellations. A blizzard warning was in effect until midnight Feb. 12 for counties north of Indianapolis, and up to a foot of snow was possible across Indiana’s midsection and parts of Illinois.\nAs the storm pushed eastward, the National Weather Service issued winter storm watches and warnings extending from Iowa and Missouri across the Ohio Valley into parts of New England. Snow was already starting to fall in the mid-Atlantic states by midmorning.\nCold air dragged southward by the weather system dropped the temperature at Grand Forks, N.D., from 11 below zero at midnight to 20 below at midmorning, the National Weather Service said. Temperatures as low as minus 15 were possible in northern Illinois.\nIn Chicago, O’Hare International Airport canceled more than 400 flights Tuesday, city aviation department spokeswoman Wendy Abrams said. Midway Airport canceled about 100 flights. A handful of flights also were canceled at the Indianapolis International Airport, and about 20 percent of the flights out of Cincinnati’s main airport were canceled because of poor conditions elsewhere, spokesmen said.\n* The Associated Press contributed to this story.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Many observers took to Twitter to report the phenomenon with sightings apparently recorded in Cornwall, Hampshire, Lancashire, South Wales and Worcestershire.\nSuzy Buttress from Basingstoke said she spotted the celestial body while driving along the M3. She wrote on Twitter: \"I have just seen the biggest meteor in my life! It was also noticeably green, and appeared very large compared to regular meteors I've seen.''\nLouise Darnell also reported the unusual event on the social networking site. She wrote: \"Seen the brightest and lowest shooting star ever! It was definitely a UFO..??''\nReports suggested the meteor crossed Britain from the South East towards the North West.\nSpace scientist Dr Aderin-Pocock said last night's shooting star, though unusually large, was likely to have been no bigger than a closed fist and would have travelled at speeds of around 150,000mph.\n\"When something like that hits the atmosphere, it burns up really brightly,'' she said. \"What was unusual about the thing last night is that usually shooting stars are quite small.\n\"This was quite a large lump passing through the atmosphere so it made quite a large shooting star.''\nShe said the green or blue flame emitted suggested there was copper in the meteor. The fireball would have been one of a number of shooting stars that crossed the sky last night, as the Earth passed through a trail of dust left by Halley's Comet - an event which occurs twice each year.\nStar-gazers can expect to see further meteors - around 10 an hour - streaking through the sky until May 20, Dr Aderin-Pocock said.\nHowever, they are likely to decrease in intensity and will only be visible at night and when the skies are relatively clear.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

He added that the key to dealing with homelessness in extreme weather conditions ultimately is finding permanent supportive housing for the homeless.\n“It’s never an easy time to be homeless regardless of the weather and when you add extreme weather like this into the mix, it makes life that much more difficult for people experiencing it,” he said.\nReporting by Brendan O’Brien in Chicago; Editing by Frank McGurty and Tom Brown\nOur Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

If you love all things astronomical than look up – because we’re about to see one mighty meteor shower.\nThe Geminids are a regular and very reliable meteor shower that occurs every year. The celestial event is caused by a five kilometre-wide asteroid called 3200 Phaethon as it moves past Earth. As it flies by it sheds debris which then rains down on the planet as the Geminid meteor shower.\nThis year the shower will be visible in Melbourne from December 13 to 16, with the peak time to catch a glimpse occurring in the wee hours of December 15. Unfortunately being so far south Melburnians don’t get the best view of the shower but we can still expect to see around 20 meteors per hour during the peak time.\nAs any amateur astronomers are already aware, stargazing is not for those who value their sleep. The best time to view the shower is between 2am and 3pm so set your alarms or stay up late. Face north and then scan the skies for the best chance of spotting a meteor as it burns up in the atmosphere.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The pairing is sure to happen, but a bewildering meteor shower known as Tau Herculids has astronomers so excited, it may light up the night sky of May 30-31 with an astonishing 1,000 meteors per hour!\nEarly morning May 29: Mars, Jupiter. Mars and Jupiter keep getting closer, and they’ll be just 0.5 degrees away today. Conditions permitting, it will be visible eastward from 4 a.m.\nHow and when do you see? To enjoy this event, simply look up at the sky from about an hour before sunrise in an easterly direction. We recommend watching from 5:00 AM based on your local time. It can be seen from anywhere, although you have to take into account the weather conditions: you need a clear sky, free of light pollution to enjoy it to the fullest. It is not necessary to leave at the exact moment of conjunction to see the planets and the moon light up nearby in the sky. They are seen with the naked eye, although some binoculars or telescopes improve vision.\nNight from May 30 to 31: The Tau of Hercules. Most meteor showers can be expected because they occur annually. This is not the case. Earth will likely pass through a collection of debris from comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 or SW3, but because it is a stellar band and is dense, it is not known exactly whether it will affect the atmosphere until that happens. If it happens this year, the meteor known as Tau Herculids could light up the sky on the night of May 30-31 with a staggering amount of A thousand meteors per hour. This will be the time for it to happen because it coincides with a new moon, which means there is a dark sky and the event will be really amazing.\nMeteor storms occur occasionally, with the number of meteors per hour running into the thousands. Also, when these types of events happen, they don’t last for days, they only last for hours. For example, it is said that the Leonid meteorite becomes a meteor storm every 33 years. But Leonid meteor storms occurred in 1833, 1866, 1867, 1966, 1999, 2001 and 2002, and their activity during these years ranged from 1,000 to about 50,000 meteors per hour, According to Star Walk.\nBecause of this irregularity is difficult to predict. Same goes for Tau Hercules, if the calculations are correct, there will be a show this year that you only see once in a lifetime. Astronomers and hobbyists move to areas with better conditions just in case. Star Walk says there’s a 90% chance that observers will see at least 600 meteors per hour.\nHow do you see that (if it happened)? It is expected to peak at 1 a.m. EDT on May 31. Its radiant point is the constellation Bootes the Shepherd, if you do not know where it is, do not worry, because in the event of a meteor shower, it will be very clear that you will notice.\nIf you want to know more details, you can visit our previous article: The best meteor showers of the century could happen later this month.

Driving winds and storm surge battered Leogane, a seaside town west of Port-au-Prince that was near the epicenter of the Jan. 12 earthquake and was 90 percent destroyed. In the country's capital, quake refugees resisted calls to abandon flimsy tarp-and-tent camps. The growing hurricane, with 85 mph (140 kph) winds, was battering the western tip of Haiti's southern peninsula and the cities of Jeremie and Les Cayes. At least three people died trying to cross swollen rivers, Haiti civil-protection officials said. The center of the storm was about 140 miles (230 kilometers) northwest of Port-au-Prince, draping charcoal clouds over the city. Steady rain turned the streets of the capital into flowing canals that carried garbage through the city. Farther north in Gonaives, a coastal city twice inundated by recent tropical storms, police evacuated more than 200 inmates from one prison to another.

Generally we define a minor shower as being one whose maximum hourly rate (HR) is less than about 10. Admittedly, this is an arbitrary limit but it is a suitable one for our purposes. It does not make sense to define the limit distinguishing between minor/major showers using their ZHR. The observing technique described here is appropriate when the observed number of meteors does not exceed a certain limit, because this method leads to a certain amount of dead-time. Of course, the time loss must not be significant for the aim of the observation. As already pointed out elsewhere, the main goal of visual observations is the reliable determination of physical shower parameters. Therefore, we consider showers which produce less than 10 meteors per hour to be minor showers. For these, plotting is an essential observing method.\nThis means the number of shower meteors visible during an observation is considerably smaller than for major showers. These small numbers cause specific problems that we now deal with. Strictly speaking, at the beginning and the end of their activity periods, major showers are effectively minor ones as they suffer from the same problems.\nSporadic activity occurs throughout the year. In the sky the paths of sporadic meteors seem to be nearly randomly distributed. Thus sometimes it happens that the backwards extension of a sporadic meteor track accidentally meets with a shower radiant. Thus shower data usually contain a certain contribution from sporadic meteors. This effect is called \"sporadic pollution\" and is of the order of 1-2 meteors per hour (m/h).\nImagine a sporadic pollution of 2 m/h. Observing a major shower of 80 meteors per hour, the relative error result is only 2.5% but for a minor shower of 4 m/h it amounts to 50%! Therefore, sporadic pollution is the main problem in observing minor showers. If we want to obtain reliable results we must reduce it. In the following sections you will learn how this can be achieved.\nYou will see that this requires a lot of knowledge and experience. Tens of observing hours will be necessary to obtain sufficient skill. But are your results obtained in this learning phase completely worthless for analyses? By no means! As long as you think that you are still unable to provide reliable data for the minor showers, simply report the total of meteors seen. In the table of the report form \"Observed numbers of meteors per period and per shower\" only fill in the column \"Tot\" and in the table \"Magnitude distributions\" only give the total magnitude distribution. Even these data about the total activity can be used for some analyses.\nIn this way you can learn step by step, without the pressure to report the whole bulk of necessary data in the correct way from the first observations. In this learning phase, try to plot the meteors, to report all the data, and to assign the meteors to the different showers as outlined in this chapter until you estimate that your data can now be considered reliable.\nIt may also be that you do not wish to go so deeply into meteor observing. In this case try to plot the meteors you see using the method described in Section 7 and send the recorded meteor data and the maps to the IMO officer for visual observations. This means you are not forced to deal with the rather difficult problems of minor-shower observations, but despite this fact, your data will be of scientific use.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Unless of course, hype is part of that FEMA training. The data simply doesn’t support his wild claim. For example, here is the current bulletin up on the NWS Seattle home page:\nA factual story in the Seattle Times was much less alarming:\n“This is one of those rare cases where (a typhoon) just happened to get swept up in the right way and get in an environment where it could grow again right off our coast,” Bond said. “When everything comes together like that — look out.”\nOn Thursday, computer models showed the storm passing directly over Western Washington, said Kirby Cook, science officer for the National Weather Service in Seattle. But even small shifts in the storm track can change which areas will be hit hardest, he cautioned.\nPressure measurements show a very intense low at the heart of the storm, which means high winds. But the pressures aren’t quite as low as those that spawned the (1962) Columbus Day storm.\n“This doesn’t look as strong as that, right now,” Cook said. “But it may very well end up being the strongest storm we’ve had in the last five to 10 years.”\nGosh, compare these two quotes:\n“FEMA Certified Disaster PIO” Kevin Thomas Hulten says –\nPacking 150 mph sustained winds, a storm some meteorologists are calling the “biggest storm in history” will hit coastal regions of the U.S. this Saturday,generating 45-foot waves, and dumping multiple feet of rainfall across an area including three states and two countries.\nNWS science officer Kirby Cook says –\n…the strongest storm we’ve had in the last five to 10 years.\nThe graphic provide by the Times is very instructive:\nAnd here is a Tweet from a couple of days ago by the NWS Seattle, that shows what the storm looks like now as a strong extra-tropical low pressure system:\n— NWS Seattle (@NWSSeattle) October 14, 2016\nCompare that image of the low approaching the coast to the typhoon picture used in the Medium story by Kevin Thomas Hulten and I think you’ll agree they look nothing alike.\nCompare the measured wind speed of 52mph at sea by a ship off the coast of Seattle to “packing 150 mph winds”:\n— NWS Seattle (@NWSSeattle) October 15, 2016\nIt seems though, some “journalists” just can’t help but generate clickbait.\nMashable’s Andrew Freedman fell into that trap yesterday, and I called him out on it:\nWorse than we thought! There's DNA in Super Typhoons now, breeding at sea, apparently. pic.twitter.com/xIcYRHE6v0\n— Watts Up With That (@wattsupwiththat) October 14, 2016\nHere is the graphic from that Tweet, click to enlarge:\nIn my opinion, these doomster journalists do the world a great disservice when they print hype like that, because when the “super typhoon” and 150 mph winds and 50 foot waves don’t materialize in Seattle and nearby areas, people will remember that the warnings didn’t match reality, and the next time a big storm comes through, they might not take it seriously enough to prepare because the last one was such a bust.\nMy friend Mike Smith speaks of this problem in his book Warnings: The true story of how science tamed the weather.\nI’ve read it, and I’ve lived and experienced much of what he’s written about in the quest to make forecasting, especially severe weather forecasting, more accurate, timely, and specific. For those of us that prefer practical approaches over the rampant speculation on mere wisps of connections to climate this book is for you.\nInterestingly, while “warning fatigue” was well known long ago when too many weather bulletins occur and the populace tunes out because they weren’t personally affected, so it goes today with the increasingly shrill climate warnings we see in the media.\nThe public is starting to tune those out too.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It's the first time this fall that our temperature has hit the freezing point. That means most of us will see the first frost of the season this morning. That is a welcome word for allergy sufferers. But will a frost actually help?\nFirst the bad news. If you suffer from the watery eyes, nasal congestion, and other fun symptoms that come with seasonal allergies, you probably won't see any relief quite yet. First, let's look at the different kind of freezes. The Old Farmer's Almanac describes them like this.\n- Light Freeze - 29 to 32 degrees - smaller, tender plants are killed.\n- Moderate Freeze - 25 to 28 degrees - destructive to most plants.\n- Severe Freeze - 24 degrees or below - heavy damage to all plants.\nSo this morning's low of 32 degrees might kill off a few plants and allergens but most will still survive. But the good news is we're probably only weeks away from the freeze that WILL take care of all our allergy problems. A moderate freeze lasting for just a couple of hours will usually do the trick. That will typically happen towards the end of October. Hang in there allergy sufferers!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But the commission's ruling also said the company could make such a move when it believes a shutoff is needed for public-safety reasons.\nWhat's clear is the National Weather Service's forecast, which shows that high pressure building over the West will likely cause light to moderate Santa Ana winds to blow into the county.\nThe agency has issued a red-flag warning for 9 a.m. today through 9 p.m. Thursday for the entire county except the coastal strip. During these warning periods, winds, high temperatures and low humidity combine to raise the potential for extreme wildfire behavior.\nThat's especially true for much of the backcountry, where vegetation is quite dry after more than three summer months with no rain.\nThe county's canyons and passes — areas such as the Interstate 8 corridor east of Alpine — could get winds in the 15-to-25-mph range with occasional gusts of up to 35 mph, weather service forecaster Mark Moede said.\nIn response to the elevated danger, all firefighting hand crews, bulldozers and engines in Southern California will be ready for deployment and more water tankers in San Diego County will be staffed, said San Diego-based Cal Fire Capt. Nick Schuler.\nBut the elements aren't expected to be nearly as ominous as they were during the 2007 wildfires, Schuler said.\n“You've got to remember, there were 60-to-70-mph winds that time,” he said. “Though it's hot, though it's dry, it's not even close to what we had in '07.”\nIn 2003, the Cedar blaze was driven by Santa Ana winds estimated at 40 mph.\nAs for the heat, temperatures should reach almost 100 degrees within five to 10 miles of the coast today and tomorrow, Moede said. Highs for the inland valleys and foothills could top the century mark.\nHumidity levels are predicted to drop to the teens or single digits.\n“I wouldn't be surprised if we have a few 90s even at the coastal zone,” Moede said. “The one thing we have in our favor is the winds won't be terribly strong.”\nFirefighting officials want residents to be overly cautious, given the volatile weather conditions, said John Buchanan, a spokesman for the North County Fire Protection District.\nPeople need to be aware that if they mow a field, any small spark could ignite a blaze, Buchanan said.\nThe marine layer has helped keep vegetation in the backcountry from drying out completely in the past few days, Buchanan said. But that will change this morning because the layer is expected to be wiped out for several days.\nBuchanan's district will likely add staffing during the red-flag period, he said.\nThe heat is arriving just as fall begins. The autumnal equinox is at 2:18 p.m. today.\nThe weekend should be slightly cooler, but the inland valleys will still be about 10 degrees warmer than usual, with highs in the 90s.\nTemperatures aren't expected to return to normal until Monday at the earliest, when cooling onshore breezes will likely replace the hot, dry offshore winds from the east and north.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Hurricane warnings were issued from San Luis Pass, Texas, to Intracoastal City, Louisiana; and storm surge warnings from the Port Arthur, Texas, flood protection system to the mouth of the Mississippi River.\nWhile cross winds ripped apart Marco, which still doused the region with heavy rain, there was little to keep Laura from turbocharging. Nearly all the computer simulations that forecasters rely on show rapid strengthening at some point in the next couple of days.\n“The waters are warm enough everywhere there to support a major hurricane, Category 3 or even higher. The waters are very warm where the storm is now and will be for the entire path up until the Gulf Coast,” Rappaport said.\nLaura passed Cuba after killing nearly two dozen people on the island of Hispaniola, including 20 in Haiti and 3 in the Dominican Republic, where it knocked out power and caused intense flooding. The deaths reportedly included a 10-year-old girl whose home was hit by a tree and a mother and young son crushed by a collapsing wall.\nForecasters turned their attention the Gulf Coast, where up to 11 feet (3.4 meters) of sea water — storm surge — could inundate the coastline from High Island in Texas to Morgan City, Louisiana, the hurricane center said.\n“We’re talking about something that’s on the order of 10 feet and that’s going to penetrate well inland,” Rappaport said.\nOn top of that, up to 15 inches (38 centimeters) of rain could fall in some spots in Louisiana, said Donald Jones, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Lake Charles, Louisiana — in the bullseye of Laura’s projected path.\n“Whatever happens, happens. We’re going to roll with the punches,” said Capt. Brad Boudreaux, who operates a fishing guide service in Hackberry, Louisiana, near the Texas line.\nThe silver lining for U.S. coastal residents is that Marco weakened into a remnant just off Louisiana’s shore on Tuesday. Satellite images showed a disorganized cluster of clouds, what meteorologists call “a naked swirl,” Jones said.\nThe crew of a hurricane hunter plane confirmed that Laura became a hurricane with top winds of 75 mph winds (120 kmh) shortly after passing between the western tip of Cuba and Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula. It was 585 miles (940 kilometers) southeast of Lake Charles, Louisiana, heading west northwest at 16 mph (26 kmh).\nThe hurricane center warned people not to focus on the details of the official forecast, however, since “storm surge, wind, and rainfall hazards will extend well away from Laura’s center along the Gulf Coast.”\nIn Galveston and Port Arthur, Texas, mandatory evacuation orders went into effect at 6 a.m. Tuesday. People planning on entering official shelters were told to bring just one bag of personal belongings each, and “have a mask” to reduce the spread of coronavirus.\n“If you decide to stay, you’re staying on your own,” Port Arthur Mayor Thurman Bartie said.\nOfficials in Houston asked residents to prepare supplies in case they lose power for a few days or need to evacuate homes along the coast. Some in the area are still recovering from the devastation of Hurricane Harvey three years ago.\nState emergencies were declared in Louisiana and Mississippi, and shelters opened with cots set farther apart, among other measures designed to curb infections.\nLaura’s unwelcome arrival comes just days before the Aug. 29 anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, which breached the levees in New Orleans, flattened much of the Mississippi coast and killed as many as 1,800 people in 2005. Hurricane Rita then struck southwest Louisiana that Sept. 24 as a Category 3 storm.\nNow southwest Louisiana again faces the threat of being hit by a major hurricane, and Rita is on the mind of Ron Leleux.\n“Finally we ran out of luck in 2005 with Rita,” Leleux said from his home in Sulphur, where he served as mayor from 2002-2010. “When something like this comes up, I think people go back and it brings back a lot of bad memories.”\nIn the southwest corner of Louisiana, Capt. Tommy Adams, a local fishing guide, was prepared for anything but said “you never know what’s going to happen.\n“I’m moving to a house a little more inland just to be on the safe side, probably about an hour north, just to be on the safe side,” said Adams, who also lives in Sulphur.\nIn Waveland, Mississippi, a coastal town devastated by Hurricane Katrina in 2015, Jeremy Burke said “our biggest threat down here is the storm surge.” When Katrina struck, “the wind did do damage, but the thing that put the nail in the coffin was the storm surge,” said Burke, who owns Bay Books in nearby Bay St. Louis.\nMany residents in Waveland are staying in place as Laura bears down on the coast, but they also have their cars and trucks gassed up in case the forecast grows more ominous, Burke said.\n“People are prepared to possibly go at the drop of a hat,” he said. “We never take a storm for granted. We might have dodged a bullet with Marco, and obviously some people along the Gulf Coast are not going to be as blessed as us.”\nSource: Yahoo News","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But weather forecasters say Northern California should keep its guard up for Round 3 arriving tonight.\nThe weather today is expected to be unsettled, with sporadic rain shower activity but no widespread downpours. Officials said this will give rivers and creeks a chance to recover from Friday's heavy rainfall.\n\"Saturday's going to be a break, and we don't want people to relax,\" said Rob Hartman, hydrologist in charge of the California-Nevada River Forecast Center, a branch of the National Weather Service based in Sacramento. \"Because Sunday's going to be a stemwinder.\"\nThe heaviest rain and winds of the week are expected to begin tonight and continue through Sunday morning. Rainfall amounts during this period may exceed those already delivered in the first two storms.\nSacramento may see as much as 3 inches of additional rain through Sunday, compared with 1.3 inches recorded between Wednesday and Friday, according to the National Weather Service. Blue Canyon along Interstate 80 in the Sierra Nevada may see 9.7 inches of rain, compared with 4.1 inches in the first two storms.\n\"The heavy stuff looks like late Saturday night,\" said George Cline, a National Weather Service forecaster in Sacramento. \"And Sunday's looking really wet.\"\nFriday's storm did not produce quite as much rainfall as initially predicted, which reduced the flood threat in some places, particularly on the upper Sacramento River in Tehama County.\nStill, the storm still brought its share of mayhem.\nEarly Friday morning, a Pacific Gas and Electric Co. worker was killed when his repair truck crashed into a traffic signal pole in West Sacramento.\nThe storm also contributed to a major accident on Interstate 5 during the Friday morning commute in Sacramento. A big rig jackknifed near Sutterville Road, crashing through the center barrier and blocking one traffic lane in each direction.\nSeveral mudslides were reported, including one that briefly closed Highway 16 near Rumsey in Yolo County Friday morning. Another mudslide closed portions of Highway 84 in Fremont.\nNumerous brief power outages also struck the state. The most notable occurred Friday morning when lights illuminating the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge suspension span went dark.\nLocalized flooding and the potential for mudslides are particular concerns in Shasta and Tehama counties, which saw some of the state's most intense rainfall on Friday.\nOfficials from the U.S. Forest Service and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection were watching closely in case of mudslides on forested areas that burned in August wildfires. Risky areas include the Chips fire in Plumas County, which burned nearly 70,000 acres along the Highway 70 and Feather River corridor. Another is the Ponderosa fire, which burned about 27,000 acres along Battle Creek in Tehama and Shasta counties.\nBoth regions were the focus of some of the heaviest rainfall in the state on Friday. Stirling City in the Feather River watershed, for example, received 8.36 inches of rain in the 24 hours that ended at 11 a.m. Friday. Clear Creek in Shasta County received 8 inches in the same period.\n\"We're pulling all nonessential personnel out of those areas that might be at risk from mudslides or debris slides,\" said Stanton Florea, a Forest Service spokesman.\nJonathan Stock, a research scientist at the U.S. Geological Survey, said landslide risk may also be growing in the San Francisco Bay Area. The agency maintains four monitors there for a project to learn what triggers landslides: two on the San Francisco peninsula, one in Marin County and one near Castro Valley.\nFriday's heavy rain nearly saturated the soil at these sites, Stock said, prompting concern that landslides may be imminent. Landslides are more likely when pore space in the soil becomes filled with water. The effect is much like when a sponge can no longer absorb more water and starts dripping, he said.\n\"Additional heavy rainfalls after that can increase the likelihood of having debris flows happen,\" said Stock. \"We're working with the National Weather Service and we may issue a landslide watch (on Saturday) because we're concerned.\"\nIn Sacramento, the downtown area received about 1.7 inches of rain in the 24 hours that ended at 11 a.m. Friday. There were many instances of street flooding and traffic snarls, but no serious problems. In outlying areas, Grass Valley received 4.3 inches of rain in the same period.\nThe U.S. Bureau of Reclamation late Friday planned to boost water releases into the American River from Folsom and Nimbus dams in response to heavy runoff from the upstream watershed. These releases were expected to raise the river level by 2 feet,submerging many stretches of shoreline.\nOne of the biggest flood risks is unfolding along the Truckee River. High snow levels in the Sierra Nevada are causing strong runoff into the river, threatening low-lying areas in the town of Truckee and in Reno and Sparks downstream in Nevada.\nAs of Friday evening, the river was predicted to exceed flood stage in Sparks on Sunday afternoon, possibly inundating portions of Highway 395 and some streets in Reno and Sparks.\nThe cities of Reno and Sparks, along with Washoe County, declared a state of emergency on Friday to prepare.\nLake Tahoe ski resorts are rejoicing over the storms. Although snow levels were above 7,000 feet and will remain so in the next storm, ski areas at higher elevations got ample snowfall.\n\"It's been snowing all day, all night,\" Russ Pecor, spokesman for Heavenly Mountain Resort in South Lake Tahoe, said Friday. \"We've got about a foot of new snow in the upper mountain. We could reach 18 inches by the end of the day.\"\nThe high winds, though, have shut down many of the resorts for the day, with the closures likely continuing through the weekend.\nBut Pecor isn't worried. \"We'll give up a day or two of skiing to get 12 to 24 to 48 inches of snow,\" he said.\nPeter Avedschmidt, marketing and sales manager for Sugar Bowl Ski Resort, said the wet snow is perfect for building a good base.\n\"It's heavy and wet snow,\" he said. \"This is amazing snow for this time of year.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Counties in the winter weather advisory were Kanawha, Boone, Logan and Mingo in West Virginia; Pike, Floyd, Martin, Johnson and Lewis counties in Kentucky; and Scioto County in Ohio. Temperatures are expected to drop down into the teens.\nOn Friday, temperatures are expected to be frigid with the high only reaching 25, Barach said.\nStreams, creeks and rivers are high, but Barach said no flood warnings were in effect for the area.\nElsewhere in West Virginia,flood warnings were issued for the Cheat River in Preston County, the South Branch of the Potomac River in Hampshire County, and the Greenbrier River in Greenbrier, Monroe and Summers counties. But only minor flooding has been reported.\nA storm system that cut off dozens of secondary roads with high water knocked out electricity to nearly 7,200 customers across West Virginia.\nAppalachian Power reported Thursday afternoon that 6,756 customers were without power, nearly one-third of them in Raleigh County.

About 2,800 FirstEnergy customers are without power.\nThe Department of Transportation says high water has closed around three dozen secondary roads across the state.\nWinter continued to throw a mixed bag of tricks Thursday with flooding reported in some areas and snow in the forecast.\nFlooding was reported on roadways in Fayette County, including in Whipple, Pax and Paint Creek. Flooding also was reported along the Greenbrier River in Greenbrier County. Flood warnings were reported for Marietta, Ohio, and in Pocahontas, Greenbrier, Summers, Mercer and Monroe counties in West Virginia.\nNo flooding was forecast in the Kanawha Valley, but streams, creeks and rivers were running high.\nMeanwhile, gusty winds were expected in the Huntington and Charleston areas with light snow Thursday night and more in mountainous areas of West Virginia.\nMetro 911 said Thursday morning that several accident had been reported, and Eyewitness News Meteorologist Brandon Stover said motorists should take care on bridges and overpasses.\nThursday's high temperature was only expected to hit 32 degrees., but with wind chills it would feel more like it is in the teens. About 1 to 2 inches of snow was expected in the Huntington and Charleston area Thursday night with 2 to 4 inches in the mountains and Eastern Kentucky, Stover said. A winter weather advisory would be in effect for the mountains.\nOn Friday, the forecast calls for bitter cold temperatures with the high reaching only about 20 degrees.\nMeanwhile, The Associated Press reported about 9,000 electricity customers in West Virginia are without service and some secondary roads were blocked by high water.\nThe National Weather Service's website showed the North Central West Virginia Airport recorded wind gusts of 49 mph shortly after midnight.\nAppalachian Power reported about 4,600 customers are without electricity, including about 1,300 in Lincoln County.\nAbout 4,400 FirstEnergy customers are without power, including about 600 outages each in Calhoun, Braxton and Mineral counties.\nThe Division of Highways said more than a dozen secondary roads across the state are closed due to high water.\nThe Associated Press contributed to this report.\nMORE NEWS FROM EYEWITNESS NEWS\n2012 NEWS: JAN | FEB | MAR | APR | MAY | JUN | JUL | AUG | SEP | OCT | NOV | DEC\nHome | Eyewitness News Newsroom | Storm Team Weather | Eyewitness Sports | Schedules\nSend email to firstname.lastname@example.org for information or comments concerning WCHS-TV Eyewitness News.\nCopyright ©2013, WCHS-TV8.

The event has been underway since October generally and now strengthening.\nWhat do you need to know though?\nWell the BoM is following a policy line of following their ACCESS model which is calling for a weak La Nina (this same model also sits well outside of the more reputable international models which deepen and prolong the ENSO phase). That would mean that the event would not have the same implications as last year, however last year the model played catch up looking at my records.\nCast your mind back to last year and when La Nina was declared. Many were asking where is La Nina? Where is the rain? Well there are no questions about that this year thanks to the negative IOD, but also influencing the weather is the La Nina. It is earlier this year, the waters east of Australia are suggesting that and the atmosphere is responding.\nWhere we had elevated moisture levels and rainfall events post Christmas 2020r, this year it appears that the impacts are being felt pre Christmas 2021. The concerning element in that is we may see a protracted period of this type of weather which does not get even spoken about. I do not know why, when the impacts are just as problematic and disruptive for many who rely on that information.\nInternational Model Predictions of ENSO for the next 9 months.\nOnly one model which is the BCC takes us into an El Nino. The reputable NOAA strengthens the La Nina to an event not seen since the 1970s and has not budged from this, other models in the plot support a much stronger and prolonged La Nina that the BoM model. Follow the Green, Blue and Red Lines as they are the model averages and taking those at face value, we are staring down a stronger event than last season. The event may persist deep into Autumn with the CPC suggesting this may be the case with a 70% chance of this occurring. Remember this product has been screaming La Nina since August as I have. Now it is a matter of how strong and how long.\nBoM ENSO Outlook November 23rd 2021\nThe ACCESS model which is traditionally not the highest scoring model out of the suite is conservative and rather erratic in the approach to this unfolding ENSO phase with a rapid drop in the coming 4 weeks, plateauing and then resuming a neutral phase. I give this a very LOW chance of verifying.\nEuro - Nino 3.4 Anomaly - November Plume.\nCan see that even the Euro is becoming more aggressive on the La Nina event, after being more conservative, it has started to follow the NOAA forecast and deepening the phase before it wanes in the early Autumn. This La Nina phase could be with us for 3-4 months which would be very problematic where as the BoM says its done by early Feb. That extra 6 weeks could be a huge issue for those forward planning.\nEuro Rainfall Outlook - Summer\nThe wet bias is over northern and eastern Australia. The heightened rainfall chances for QLD and NSW is the further east you go. Seasonal conditions elsewhere with a leaning above normal for many states. The wet season productive.\nEuro Rainfall Outlook - Autumn\nThe chances of an early Autumn break look high for 2022. And the season overall looks wetter than normal for northern and central Australia which may be connected to the lingering wet season/cyclone season and the La Nina lingering longer would result in more green being painted on this chart for eastern areas of the nation.\nThe take away is.\nLa Nina is here, but how long is she here for? That question will be likely answered in December when the fresh plume data is available.\nHave we seen the peak of the wet weather? NO!

The area most threatened stretched from central and northeastern Texas through Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas and southeast Missouri, where 80 mph wind gusts and flash flooding were possible.\nTom Kines, an AccuWeather meteorologist, said a northern cold front clashing with warm, humid air from the South is causing the unsettled weather.\n\"I think there's a high likelihood there will be severe storms with hail and damaging wind\" in parts of the South, Kines said. \"Whether or not there's tornadoes, that's tough to say, but I will say the conditions are right.\"\nWeekend temperatures could surpass 70 degrees in Nashville this weekend and approach that in New York City as well, Kines said. But by Sunday night, the storm will be hammering the Northeast, where residents could be treated to a rare winter thunderstorm.\nIf there is a silver lining, it's that Christmas happens mid-week this year, AAA spokeswoman Heather Hunter said.\n\"When a holiday falls on a Wednesday it gives travelers more flexibility of either leaving the weekend before, or traveling right before the holiday and extending the trip through the following weekend,\" Hunter said.\nAssociated Press writers Shelley Adler in Washington, D.C.; Kelly P.

Chris spent nearly a decade in Charlotte, North Carolina as one of the area’s top meteorologists. From there he went to Tampa, Florida where he became an expert in protecting his viewers from tropical systems swirling toward the state over the Gulf of Mexico, Caribbean and tropical Atlantic.\nAfter three years in Tampa, Chris moved to Kansas City, Missouri as the chief meteorologist in tornado alley where severe weather in all forms from squall lines to wicked supercell storms take center stage. He took great pride and responsibility in seeing his viewers through many dangerous storms. His weather reporting style is calm and reassuring, trying to avoid unnecessary hype. But if there is severe weather, he issues strong warnings aimed directly at keeping you and your family safe.\nChris prides himself on accurate forecasting and was honored to earn \"Kansas City's most accurate\" while there. He holds the coveted Certified Broadcast Meteorologist (CBM) certification from the American Meteorological Society as well as the NWA seal issued by the National Weather Association.\n“I am very excited to have Chris on the News 4 team,” said General Manager Dean Radla. “His credentials and background as an accurate and accomplished Meteorologist will bring great value to our viewers. Our 4-Zone approach to weather forecasting has been extremely successful and I think Chris is the guy to take that valuable franchise to the next level.”\n“We are excited to have Chris come and lead our 4 Zone Weather Team,” said News Director Mandi Mendoza. “He’s clear on our mission to bring our viewers a true zone-by-zone forecast, and its importance to our audience.”\nChris is excited to join the team at News 4.\n“San Antonio’s friendly people, culture and great energy sold me,” said Suchan. “It’s such a beautiful city and area with so much pride. The meteorologist in me looks forward to covering the distinct four zones of weather across the viewing region.”\nYou’ll see Chris chasing storms across Texas when they’re not a risk to our viewing area, as he’s been a part of the chase community over the past six years. When he’s not chasing storms, Chris is a sports nut. Obviously, he’s landed in the perfect town for that. He calls himself a struggling golfer, loves to fish, acrylic painting and cruising through the scenic countryside on his Harley. Chris also loves to travel to schools and share his passion for weather and forecasting with children.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Most areas are expected to see less than an inch, but some locations may accumulate 2 or 3 inches, the weather service said.\nThere is a 50 percent chance of snow before 7 a.m. in Oklahoma City, then gradually becoming sunny with a high of 37 degrees. Winds are expected to decrease as the day goes on, but gusts up to 36 mph are possible, according to the weather service.\nBut Woodward County was pummeled from midnight to midnight by rain and then snow, with 13.2 inches reported by emergency management to the weather service.\nA 71-year-old man died Monday afternoon when a house partially collapsed on the south side of Woodward, said Matt Lehenbauer, emergency management director in Woodward County. The collapse was reported in the 3600 block of 22nd Street, he said. The man's name was not immediately released.\nSeven snowplows were stuck across the county, and 12 emergency responders stranded in the blizzard at sundown were rescued by 10 p.m., Lehenbauer said, including five firefighters, two emergency medical technicians, one sheriff's deputy and four county commission employees who were driving plows.\n“That's a lot of our snow-clearing equipment that's stuck out there. We're getting drift reports between 4 and 9 feet,” Lehenbauer said.\nThe blizzard was beginning to wind its way down in the county by 10 p.m., and efforts to rescue stranded motorists will continue through the night.\nBy 7:30 a.m., all highways in the Oklahoma Panhandle had been shut down because of the blizzard, Oklahoma Highway Patrol spokeswoman Betsy Randolph said. Many other roads and highways in northwest Oklahoma were closed by early afternoon.\nFor current information about Oklahoma road conditions, call 425-2385 or go online to www.dps.state.ok.us.\n“The winter storm has already caused dangerous travel conditions in northwest Oklahoma, as well as subfreezing temperatures,” said Lt. Gov. Todd Lamb, who issued the emergency declaration at the request of Gov. Mary Fallin, who was in Washington, D.C., attending a National Governors Association meeting.\nFallin, who is vice chairman of the nonpartisan governors' group, was to return to Oklahoma on Monday night, but her arrival has been delayed until at least Tuesday because of the storm, Lamb said.\n“This is a very serious winter storm, and we want Oklahomans to stay safe,” Lamb said.\nThe executive order Lamb issued allows state agencies to make emergency purchases related to disaster relief and preparedness. It also is a first step toward seeking federal assistance, should it be necessary.\nOklahoma County is among the counties covered in the declaration. Other counties are Adair, Alfalfa, Beaver, Beckham, Blaine, Caddo, Canadian, Cherokee, Cimarron, Cleveland, Comanche, Cotton, Craig, Creek, Custer, Delaware, Dewey, Ellis, Garfield, Grady, Grant, Greer, Harmon, Harper, Jackson, Kay, Kingfisher, Kiowa, Lincoln, Logan, Major, Mayes, McClain, McIntosh, Muskogee, Noble, Nowata, Okfuskee, Okmulgee, Osage, Ottawa, Pawnee, Payne, Pottawatomie, Roger Mills, Rogers, Seminole, Texas, Tillman, Tulsa, Wagoner, Washington, Washita, Woods and Woodward.\nThousands of customers were left without power as the blizzard pounded the western half of the state.\n“I have a gas cooking stove and got the oven going,” Ann Smith, owner of the Standifer House Bed and Breakfast in Elk City, said late Monday afternoon. Her daughter and grandchildren had come over because they lost power.\n“If it gets cold tonight, I guess we'll have to put pallets in the kitchen,” Smith said with a laugh.\nContinue reading this story on the...","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Along with clear skies, the weather forecast for Waukee calls for temperatures of about 36.\nThe Leonids occur over Iowa every year about this time, when Earth glides through a trail of dust left behind by the comet Tempel-Tuttle.

A great little spot to see the shower is in Centennial Park near the bridges and away from street lights. Lie down, point your feet east and look carefully. Space.com has more tips for watching the Leonids.\n- These meteors are fast (about 40 miles per second) and can leave trails of smoke, according to Astronomy.com. They will appear to radiate from the constellation Leo the Lion.\n- One of the 10 cool things to know about the Leonids, from Space.com: \"Leonids are spawned by the comet Tempel-Tuttle. Every 33 years, it rounds the Sun and then goes back to the outer solar system. On each passage across Earth's orbit, Tempel-Tuttle lays down another trail of debris...\"\n- This shower is called the Leonid shower because the meteors seem to come from a point in the constellation Leo. But they are really much closer to Earth than these stars are. The starting point, called the radiant, is found in the part of Leo that looks to be a backwards question mark.\n- The Leonids has been called, some years, a \"meteor storm\" (rather than just a \"shower\"), but reports say this year will be limited to \"at best 10 to 15 meteors per hour.\" The last Leonid storm, with thousands of shooting stars per hour, was in 2002.\n- A report, from MSNBC says there is a reason this year's display is a bit different: \"Two peaks of activity, one on Saturday morning and another on Tuesday morning (Nov. 20).\n- Fireballs may be seen with the naked eye.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A discussion f the electrical and mechanical energy budgets for the Blackwell tornado is given and for tornadoes in general. A field program is reported which emphasizes electrical measurements taken for three tornadoes which occurred in the Norman area of Oklahoma in the Spring of 1963. The electrical measurements reported are corona current, field in tensity, 18.5 kc sferics and sferics across the spectrum of 10, 50, 100, 175 kc and 30 megacycles. The data is interpreted to show that large horizontal field gradients could exist in tornado clouds. An anomalous sferics pattern acorss the sferics spectrum is reported, which shows that the sferics associated with the tornado have repetitious but aperiodic bursts of sferic radiation. Correlation of this data with a laboratory experiment illustrating electrostatically generated fluid vorticity is suggested.

(WMC) -Get ready because December is going to be a great month to look into the nights sky. December contains the highly active Geminids to several close approaches of planets to the moon.\nDecember 11th is the peak of yet another meteor shower in December: the Sigma Hydrid meteor shower. On this night, you can spot a few meteors per hour. The best time to try to see the meteors will be in the pre-dawn hours from 2:00am to 5:00am on the morning of 13th. However, you should be able to see some meteors after sunset on December 12th.\nJust a day later on December 12th the moon and Venus will be nearby in the pre-dawn hours on December 12th. Venus and the Moon will pass less than 1°of each other in the sky. This will be a beautiful site to see a sliver of the crescent moon which will be only 4% illuminated as it appears near bright Venus.\nJust two days later on December 14th, this will be the night to check out the Geminid meteor shower! The shower will be active from December 4- 17th. It will peak with up to 120 meteors per hour on December 13 & 14. Meteors will be coming from the constellation of Gemini look toward the northeastern sky. Meteor activity is expected to start between 9 or 10 pm. both nights. The Geminids are usually one of the best meteors shower of the year and the meteors are often bright and colorful. Moonlight could interfere as the moon will be 78% illuminated. The Geminids are caused by debris from an asteroid called 3200 Phaethon.\nAnother close approach will happen on December 16 of the Moon, Jupiter & Saturn. Jupiter and Saturn will move even closer in the night sky and will appear close to the Moon on the night of December 16th. The closest they will be at 1:00am on Dec. 17.\nWe go from a close approach to yet another meteor shower on December 19 which is the peak of the December Leonis Minorid Meteor Shower. This meteor shower is not as known and least active of the month, however it could be a nice celebration for the winter solstice that will occur on December 21st. It only produces about 3 meteors per hour and it will be low in the northwestern sky.\nOn this same night on the December 21, the Great Conjunction of Jupiter & Saturn will be visible. The pair have been visible in the nights sky quite frequently over the past few months but this time they will be the closest to each other since 1623. This only happens every 19.6 years because of their orbital paths. This will be a great night to grab the telescope and see them both in the same view!\nOn December 22 the Ursids Meteor shower will peak but will be active from December 17th to 26th. On the night of peak, the Ursids could produce up to 10 meteors per hour. The Ursids will radiate from the constellation Ursa Minor. Look for the North Star to find Ursa Minor, and then scan the whole northern.\nCopyright 2021 WMC.

A Pigouvian tax is technologically infeasible. Most countries instead rely on exhaust standards that limit air pollution emissions per mile for new vehicles. We assess the effectiveness and efficiency of these standards, which are the centerpiece of US Clean Air Act regulation of transportation, and counterfactual policies. We show that the air pollution emissions per mile of new US vehicles has fallen spectacularly, by over 99 percent since standards began in 1967. Several research designs with a half century of data suggest that exhaust standards have caused most of this decline. Yet exhaust standards are not cost-effective in part because they fail to encourage scrap of old vehicles, which account for the majority of emissions. To study counterfactual policies, we develop an analytical and a quantitative model of the vehicle fleet. We conclude that tighter exhaust standards increase social welfare and that increasing registration fees on dirty vehicles yield even larger gains by accelerating scrap, though both reforms have complex effects on inequality.\nCo-authors: Mark Jacobsen, Jim Sallee and Joe ShapiroIf you are interested in joining the seminar, please send an email to Hedda Werkman.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The meteors won’t really fly in significant numbers until Saturn has already set by mid to late evening.\nBy astronomers’ best estimates, the night of August 11-12 (mornings of August 12) will probably feature the most Perseid meteors in North America. In Asia, the peak night might come later, on the night of August 12-13 (morning of August 13). But any clear night from here on out should be fine for watching this reliable summer meteor shower. Last year, observers under dark skies reported over 60 meteors an hour, according to the International Meteor Organization. Will you see that many tonight? Only way to find out is to look.\nAs evening deepens into late night, the number of meteors will start to increase. The intensity will pick up after midnight, and the greatest numbers of meteors typically bombard the sky in the dark hours just before dawn. A typical count is 60 an hour. You might see more. Plus the planets Jupiter and Mars will rise into the eastern sky before dawn.\nAppreciably south of the equator, the count will be less – perhaps 10 to 15 meteors per hour. Also, at southerly latitudes, the first Perseids probably won’t appear until midnight or the wee hours of the morning. That’s because the constellation Perseus – the radiant point for the Perseid meteors – is a far northern constellation. Perseus rises earlier in the evening and climbs higher in the sky at northerly latitudes.\nMira the Wonderful, the famous variable star, may – or may not – be visible\nThat’s the constellation Perseus the Hero at the top of this post. It’s the reason this meteor shower is best between the hours of midnight and dawn. One way to think about it is this. The shower’s radiant point – the point in the sky from which the meteors appear to radiate – needs to be above your horizon before you can see the most meteors. At this time of year, the constellation Perseus ascends appreciably high in the northeast by about midnight and highest in the sky before dawn. The Perseid meteor shower is named for this constellation.\nDo you have to be able to identify the radiant point, or the constellation Perseus, to see the meteors? No. The meteors will appear in all parts of the sky – especially between midnight and dawn on the mornings of August 11, 12 and 13. If – just for fun – you do want to spot Perseus, look first for the W-shaped constellation Cassiopeia. The constellation Perseus is faint, but Cassiopeia is noticeable and can help you find it. If you do see a Perseid meteor, and trace its path backward, you will find that it radiated from a point in the sky within the boundaries of the constellation Perseus.\nDouble Cluster in Perseus: Two star clusters\nMany people look forward each summer to the Perseids. It’s a great time to go camping. This shower always peaks around this time of year, and in years when the moon is out of the sky, it reliably produces 50 or more meteors per hour at its peak at northerly latitudes, or an average of about one a minute.\nFortunately, in 2013, the thin waxing crescent moon in the evening hours won’t intrude at all on the Perseid shower.\nBottom line: The bright starlike object near tonight’s moon is really a planet, Venus. You can also find Saturn this evening. Late night or between midnight and dawn, find a dark, open spot away from pesky artificial lights, sprawl out comfortably on a reclining lawn chair and enjoy the best nights of the Perseid shower. The meteors will probably fall most abundantly – from anyplace worldwide – from about 2 a.m. until dawn on Monday, August 12. But this weekend, through Tuesday morning (August 13), should feature good meteor displays, too.\nEarthSky’s top 10 tips for meteor-watchers\nAugust 2013 guide to the five visible planets\nLooking for a sky almanac.

All outdoor burning is prohibited, and only those with certified fireplaces and wood stoves are allowed to burn indoors. An exemption is made for homes with uncertified wood stoves that have no other source of heat.\nSusan Alotrico, the communication specialist for the regional pollution control agency, said the ban will extend at least through Thursday. She said air quality monitoring stations across Puget Sound, including one in East Bremerton, began indicating a problem on Monday.\n\"It's a wood smoke problem in residential areas,\" Alotrico said. \"We're trying to keep levels down to protect health.\"\nChildren, the elderly and people with cardiopulmonary disease are at risk, Alotrico said. A spokeswoman at Harrison Hospital said there were no reported increases of any such cases as of Tuesday afternoon.\nThe burn ban was prompted when the particulate matter - the fine particles that billow up with wood smoke - pushed up the county's Pollutants Standards Index to 64 on Tuesday. A score of 0 to 50 is considered good air quality. When the PSI is between 50 to 100, air quality is considered moderate. Above 100, the air quality is considered unhealthful.\n\"It's difficult to predict when things will change,\" Alotrico said. \"We may or may not call the ban off on Thursday.\"\nWind speed in Bremerton was measured at zero Tuesday afternoon and weather predictions called for light winds today. Until the winds pick up, people will need to watch the way they burn wood to heat their homes.\nAlotrico said wood stoves began to be regulated in 1988. She said older models are probably uncertified and should not be used until the ban is lifted. According to her agency, older, uncertified wood stoves pump out more than five times as many pollutants as those approved by the Environmental Protection Agency. Alotrico said it is fairly easy to determine if a stove is in compliance.\n\"Chances are it says on the back of a stove,\" she said. \"If people don't know, they have to assume it's not certified.\"\nThose who still plan to burn wood indoors in the next few days need to follow proper guidelines, including using dry wood and plenty of air, Alotrico said.\n\"It's not only a health issue, but a nuisance issue,\" Alotrico said. \"Were not asking people to make a huge change in their lives. We're only asking for a couple days this winter. We're asking for people to take some action, to be a good neighbor and do the right thing for air quality.\"\nAccording to the Puget Sound Air Pollution Control Agency, besides not burning, other actions also can have a positive effect on air quality, including carpooling, taking the bus and driving less.

His specialty is solar system dynamics. In other words, he conducts numerical analyses of the way objects in our solar system move. He says he likes working with smaller bodies particularly: asteroids, comets and meteoroid streams.\nLike most meteors in annual showers, any fiery Draconid meteors we see streaking across a dark night sky actually started out in a meteoroid stream in space – a river of icy, rocky debris – left behind in the orbit of a comet. The comet that spawns the Draconid shower is named Giacobini-Zinner. Known for over 100 years, this comet takes about 6.6 years to orbit our sun once. Astronomer Paul Wiegert – in his analysis of the movement of Giacobini-Zinner and its attendant meteoroid stream of icy bits – has determined that conditions will line up just right in 2011 for us to see a spectacular Draconid meteor shower. A shower of 1,000 meteors per hour would be spectacular indeed.\nNot yet. The peak of the shower is very narrow (lasting only one hour), and it so happens that narrow peak of the Draconids will come during daylight on October 8, 2011 for us in North America. The 2011 Draconid outburst is expected to occur between 17 and 18 Universal Time on October 8 – translating to between 1 and 2 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on that day. In other words, pretty darn close to high noon for us in the continental U.S.\nCan you see meteors in daylight? No. So Wiegert says the best locations from which to view the shower – which is primarily a northern hemisphere event, since the meteors radiate from a point that’s far to the north on the celestial sphere – will be Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.\nBut there is yet another factor. The moon will be in a waxing gibbous phase on October 8. And as all meteor-watchers know, a large bright moon can drown out a meteor shower.\nA typically strong meteor shower like the Perseid shower, which occurs every summer in mid-August, might produce up to 100 meteors per hour under favorable skies. Normally, the Draconids (so-named because its meteors appear to radiate from the northern constellation Draco) are a weak shower producing perhaps 10 meteors per hour. However, this shower has proved strongly variable in the past. In 1933 and 1946, the Draconids produced “meteor storms” where shooting stars were produced at rates of 10,000 per hour or even more. Other less dramatic outbursts — where the meteor counts nonetheless ran into the hundreds per hour — occurred in 1952, 1985, and 1998.\nThough the peak of the outburst is predicted to occur during daylight hours in North America, the shower is expected to continue to produce meteors, albeit at a reduced level, into the evening of October 8. So North Americans will still have a chance to see a stronger-than-usual Draconid meteor shower.\nPaul Wiegert, an astronomer at University of Western Ontario, who is presenting his results at this week’s CASCA 2011 meeting in Ontario, Canada, said:\nAnd you never know. Meteor showers are as difficult to predict as rain showers. The Draconids have surprised us before, and they may do so again. I’d encourage anyone outside on the night of October the 8 to look to the northern skies, just in case.\nHow to view the Draconid shower\nThis meteor shower really favors the northerly latitudes, but that’s not to say the Draconid meteors can’t be seen from the northern tropics. Predicting the intensity and the peak (or multiple peaks) of a meteor shower is a very tricky business, and represents a best guess – not an ironclad guarantee. You’ll never know for sure what a meteor shower has to offer unless you watch.\nWherever you may reside worldwide, the best viewing of these meteors will probably be at nightfall and early evening on October 8. That’s when the radiant point for the shower will be highest in the sky for the night. All other things being equal, the most meteors tend to fall when the the radiant point is highest in the sky. North of about 35 degrees north latitude – the latitude of Memphis, Tenessee – the radiant is actually circumpolar. Circumpolar means that the radaint stays above the horizon all night long.\nEven so, the radiant will fall downward during the night and reach its low point around 5:00 a.m. local time (6:00 a.m. local daylight saving time). Generally, you see few – if any – meteors when the radiant of the shower falls close to the horizon. However, if the Draconids should burst into storm during the predawn hours (that’ll be in Asia and possibly Alaska on October 9, if the prediction holds), you might not see an abundance of meteors but you may see some earthgrazers – unusually bright and long meteors that go horizontally across the sky.\nHowever, nightfall and early evening (on October 8, 2011) will probably provide the greatest number of meteors. At this time, the waxing gibbous moon will be rather low in your east to southeast sky and casting long shadows. Sit in the shadow of a barn or hedgerow of trees, though with an otherwise open view of sky. This should help darken the night for meteor watching.\nSource of the Draconid meteor shower\nComet Giacobini-Zinner is the source of the Draconid meteor shower and was the first comet to be examined by a spacecraft, when in 1985 the International Cometary Explorer flew through its tail, passing approximately 4,847 miles (7,800 km) from its nucleus.\nA comet’s tail may extend for millions of km, but that spectacular display all originates from the much-smaller nucleus at its head. Essentially an ice asteroid, the frozen nucleus partly evaporates when its orbit brings it close to the sun. At this time the comet’s tail, which is composed largely of water vapor and chemically related species, grows in size and may achieve naked-eye visibility from Earth. The vaporization process also releases copious quantities of small rocks and dust because the nucleus is far from pristine ice: it is more like a dirty city snow-bank after a long winter.\nThe solid rocky material produced by a comet continues to orbit the sun after its release. If that orbit brings it into collision with the Earth, its high speed — which may exceed 155,342 mph (250,000 kph) — causes it to burn up in the upper atmosphere and produce a bright flash we call a meteor, shooting star or falling star. Particles no larger than a pea and which burn up at altitudes of 62 miles (100 km) are easily noticeable from the ground; in fact, this describes most meteors visible to the human eye. When these particles arrive in large numbers, they produce a beautiful display called a meteor shower.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Researchers working with the Curiosity rover have found salt-enriched…\nIn this year Draconid meteor shower in October will be impressive, but few people on the ground will get a chance to appreciate its true scope. According to a recent study on October 8, up to 1,000 meteors per hour will streak through Earth’s atmosphere. Unfortunately, the flurry will peak around 1 p.m. or 2 p.m. EDT (1700 or 1800 GMT), meaning the sun will drown it out throughout the Western Hemisphere. The skywatching prospects in Europe are a little better, than in America, since the sun will have set in many places when the shower peaks. However, even European skies won’t be very dark. According to Bill Cooke of the Meteoroid Environment Office at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., the moon will be about 90 percent full on October 8, washing out much of the Draconid meteor shower.\nLike other meteor showers, the Draconids result when Earth plows through bits of debris shed by a comet on its path around the sun. In the Draconids’ case, this comet is called Giacobini-Zinner (hence the Draconids’ other name, the Giacobinids). These shed comet particles tend to cluster into “streams” or “trails.” If Earth happens to slam into a particularly dense particle stream or two, the meteor shower can be much more spectacular than usual. That’s what happened during previous big Draconid years. And it will happen again this October, when Earth will barrel through streams of comet material ejected by Giacobini-Zinner during the 1890s and early 1900s. In the recent study, astronomer Paul Wiegert of the University of Western Ontario calculated that the 2011 Draconids will peak at a rate of about 1,000 per hour.\nSpace X Launches Falcon 9 Rocket\nHurricane Irene Continues Its Course to The East Coast of USA\nFlare in the Crab Nebula\nWISE Have Captured Rare Data of Flaring Black Hole\nDisagreement Regarding the Location of NASAs' Spacecraft Voyager 1\nM9.3 Class Solar Flare\nUnited States going to build Lunar Orbital Platform-Gateway costing 2.7B$\nATV-2 Cargo Spacecraft's Final Descent","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The tornado touched down near River Rouge, Michigan, then crossed the Detroit River and made landfall in the Brighton Beach neighbourhood of Windsor. It then cut across southern Windsor and northern Sandwich West Township, Ontario (now the Municipality of LaSalle, Ontario), along a path 60 kilometres (40 mi) in length. It also cut across Highway 3 before weakening somewhat. The storm then touched down as an F4 again at the modern-day intersection of Walker Road and Grand Marais Road, near the center of the city.\nPath of destruction\nThe tornado took a northeastward path, cutting through farmland and forest, an area with few housing subdivisions (at the time, but still many homes), and narrowly missing Windsor Airport (which was located just south of the tornado), before tearing through the northwest part of the Town of Tecumseh, Ontario and dissipating over Lake St. Clair.\nThe storm's path was roughly 30 metres (100 ft) wide, and followed Turkey Creek for much of its length after crossing the Detroit River, and travelled 60 km. The storm's damage ranged from F3-F4, to some speculated F5 damage from completely destroyed houses that were lifted off their foundations.\nSince the tornado had cut power to The Windsor Star's main printing offices downtown the Detroit News offered to help them print their newspapers at their printing facilities until the Star's were repaired, and even gave the Star priority so they could report the news of the tornado to the cities of Windsor, Detroit, and the rest of Ontario.\nThe tornado knocked out power to most of the city for about a day, and damaged or destroyed roughly 400 homes in Windsor.\nThough Windsor had CKLW as a radio station from Detroit, Michigan, there were no records kept from them. CBC Toronto was the only radio station that has kept their archives for the reports on this event. CBC Archives helps to explain what happened in Windsor the day after on Windsor, Ont. struck by tornado in 1946. The report explains what happened, how many were killed, how citizens feel and even what was stolen and who came out to help. In addition to this report, there were many reports to explain how the tornado was formed for this tornado. The reports also hold onto interviews from people who viewed the tornado first hand.  \nAfter the tornado, civility and order were quickly restored by the police. Many accounts of the tornado were told over the radio (notably, CKLW, which was Windsor's CBC radio affiliate at the time), and the Ontario Provincial Government even explained the conditions that are favourable for tornado development, to alleviate the public's fears of an \"epidemic of tornadoes\", especially since one week later, a tornado struck the towns of Fort Frances and International Falls.\nIt was also just half a mile from the same spot the Windsor Tornado of 1974 touched down.\n- List of tornadoes and tornado outbreaks\n- List of North American tornadoes and tornado outbreaks\n- List of Canadian Tornadoes\n- List of tornadoes striking downtown areas\nThis article needs additional citations for verification.

The area remains under a Winter Storm Warning by the National Weather Service (NWS) until Thursday evening.\nAll three school districts announced yesterday that classes were cancelled today, Feb. 2.\nThe NWS is also predicting highs for today and tomorrow in the lower 20s, while lows for the next two nights will be in the single digits.\nLinn County Pubic Works Administrator Shaun West said earlier today that, because there was little ice associated with the storm, county road crews would be working to clear according to a preset plan.\nThat plan includes clearing paved roads and roads that connect to main arteries first. Once those high-usage roads were clear, crews would start working on the secondary roads, he said.\nAlso once the main roads are cleared, crews can start addressing trouble spots like bridges and intersections where ice, particularly black ice, has become a problem, West said. Had there been more freezing rain, addressing those areas would have been more of a priority.\nWest said that V-plows have been mounted on some trucks to work the backroads and graders are ready to clear as well.\nHe said he expected crews to be working over the next two days to clear the snow and hoped to have the work done by Thursday evening. However, he also said that with additional snow and breezy conditions drifting could be a problem.\nWinds out of the north northeast are expected to bring wind gusts up as high as 28 mph, which could cause drifting, particularly on roads that run east to west.\nIn that case, county crews would continue to return to those areas to get those roads clear.\nThis tractor-trailer rig got sideways on U.S. Highway 69 this morning because of icy roads. The Linn County Sheriff's deputies were kept busy handling slide-offs on main roads. (Screen captures, Linn County Sheriff's Office)\nKansas Department of Transportation road crews will be working to clear state and federal highways.\nLinn County Sheriff Kevin Friend urged drivers to slow down and be more attentive to road conditions. \"People should stay home if they can,\" he said.\nIf drivers must get out on the highways, they should take special care to give themselves plenty of space between vehicles, he said.\nHe pointed out that, unlike previous relatively light snows over the past couple of years, a heavy snow like the one expected will be a game-changer. It will make it more challenging to get places for motorists, but it will also slow down responses on 911 calls from all emergency responders.\nIt also suggested that if you must travel, keep an extra flashlight, food, and water in your vehicle in case of an emergency. The latest road conditions for the state you are calling from can be obtained by calling 5-1-1 or you can go to the Kansas Department of Transportation website, kandrive.org.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Find out when to go outside and start stargazing.\nEvery August, Mother Nature treats us to a brilliant light show: the Perseid meteor shower. Even for the most amateur of astronomers, this summer star show is one of the year’s best with up to 100 shooting stars zipping across the sky each hour. But for 2016, the Perseids are expected to be twice as nice with up to 200 meteors visible each hour under ideal conditions, says Bill Cooke, the lead at the NASA Meteoroid Environment Office.\nThe Perseid meteor shower gets its name from the constellation Perseus, from which the meteors appear to originate. In reality, the meteors are space debris from the Swift-Tuttle comet, which takes around 132 years to orbit the sun. When the Earth passes through the comet’s debris field once a year, the particles (traveling 132,000 miles per hour!) burn up in the Earth’s atmosphere, creating the sea of shooting stars we see each August.\nThe Perseids will be particularly magnificent this year, thanks to Jupiter’s gravitational pull. “Jupiter is the strongest gravitational influence in the solar system outside the sun, so it tends to be a bully and push things out of their paths in the solar system,” Cooke says. While the Earth typically only grazes by Swift-Tuttle’s comet tail, this year Jupiter is pushing the comet closer to Earth.\nBut when exactly is the best time to view the Perseids? The meteor shower will peak after after midnight on Thursday, August 11, especially after the waxing gibbous moon sets just after 1 a.m., and continue into early Friday, August 12. To ensure the best view, get away from city lights and give your eyes 30 to 40 minutes to fully adjust to the darkness. Dress comfortably, bring a blanket, and pack bug spray. To properly enjoy the show, you will need to spend a few hours outside. If weather or lights affect your viewing, don’t worry: NASA will be broadcasting the show live on its UStream channel on both August 11 and 12.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Many climatologists believe that the temperature of the Earth slowly fluctuates over time. In fact, several scientists estimate that between 15,000 and 30,000 years ago the Earth was covered by large sheets of ice. This period of time was known as the Ice Age. As the temperature of the Earth began to rise 7,000 years ago, the Ice Age came to an end.\nThe first theory of global warming came in 1824 when French mathematician Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier discovered that the Earth's temperature was slowly increasing. Fourier argued that the earth's atmosphere traps solar radiation and reflects it back toward the earth.\nIn the late 19th century Fourier's theory was labeled the \"greenhouse effect\" when Nobel Laureate Svante Arrhenius coined the term to explain how carbon dioxide traps heat in the Earth's atmosphere.\nToday, scientists disagree on the effects of global warming while some deny the phenomena all together. Despite these arguments many historians point out the direct relationship between man and the environment, often referencing the American Dust Bowl of the 1930s, where large scale soil erosion reduced parts of Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma and Texas to arid deserts. Currently, many governments and corporations are working to reduce fuel emissions and produce \"Earth friendly\" products such as hybrid cars. Yet, many scientists warn that global warming is an imminent and pressing problem that needs to be addressed before it becomes irreversible. (History of Global Warming, The New York Times, page 1)\nI would like to start with three opinions on global warming. “It’s complete nonsense. Global warming is just nonsense. I’m not seeing any destroying of planet Earth, I haven’t been seeing, and I do not think that any wise and intelligent person could say that there is global warming on planet Earth. We can rather suppose if the ocean will be warmer, there will be more snowing in Antarctica and the mass of icebergs will increase.” (VACLAV KLAUS, speech on global warming) This is how Czech president thinks about this topic. His speeches about this topic are very controversial every time he talks about it. Many people have been influenced by him. Every president or head of the country has some effect on people who live in certain country. It is obvious that he is extremely against global warming.\n“Some of the scientists, I believe, haven’t they been changing their opinion a little bit on global warming? There’s a lot of differing opinions and before we react I think it’s best to have the full accounting, full understanding of what’s taking place. (GEROGE W. BUSH, presidential debate, Oct. 11, 2000) He probably thinks that there is maybe some kind of global warming, but he wants more evidences about it.\nThe last example had been told by Tony Blair, ex-prime minister of the United Kingdom. His opinion is different than the two previous ones. “Global warming is too serious for the world any longer to ignore its danger or split into opposing factions on it.” (TONY BLAIR, speech, Sept. 27, 2005)\nGlobal warming exists. How would you want to explain all the big changes of climate in last few years, glacier discharging and other things which have something in common with climate on the Earth? I sharply disagree with my president, that all the global warming is only nonsense. However is difficult to find any pieces of evidence which are warranted. Mostly all of the “facts” are only presumptions. Rising temperatures and melting icebergs are indisputable evidence that the Earth is warming. There is global\nwarming. It may be just part of nature, but I think we take the biggest share in that is all this happening. One thing for sure global warming is taking its toll on the Earth.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But particles have been building up inside the magnetosphere as the solar wind carries northward-facing field lines to Earth.\nDuring the next solar cycle, the winds are expected to carry southward-facing field lines, which connect with the magnetosphere in such a way that they provide extra charge to any plasma inside the shield.\n\"You can sort of compare [the situation] to a gas stove,\" Raeder said.\n\"If you turn on the gas and you light it right away, nothing will happen—the gas stove will go on and there will be a flame.\n\"But if you turn on a gas stove and you don't do anything for a while and then you throw in a match, what will happen? It will say, Boom!\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Since June 9, Las Vegas, Nevada has been caught in a heat dome, a kind of atmospheric pressure cooker that superheats air near the ground. Record-breaking heat hit the area, with temperatures consistently soaring to triple digits. On June 10, 2022, the city reached a record daily high of 109 degrees Fahrenheit—so hot that the heat was picked up by sensors in space.\nNASA’s Ecosystem Spaceborne Thermal Radiometer Experiment on Space Station, or Ecostress, generated a map of land surface temperatures of Las Vegas and the surrounding community. Recorded at 5:23 pm when heat peaked, the map reveals it radiating out from the city center from red to yellow.\nThe map is a stark illustration of the “urban heat island” effect, which magnifies the dangers of extreme heat in cities. Human activity, vehicles, buildings and streets all soak up more heat (and take longer to cool off) than places that are less developed and have more vegetation.\n“Even in a place like Las Vegas, which is in the desert, and there’s low tree canopy cover in the first place, you can see that places where there are less trees are hotter,” says Chris David, vice president of data and mapping at American Forests, which did a survey of tree canopy and vulnerability to heat in American cities in 2021.\nExplore data on tree cover, heat islands, and “tree equity” in Las Vegas in American Forests’ tool below:\nThe Ecostress project is set up to monitor water loss from plants in a warming climate, but it also provides a street-level view of heat waves. The instruments, aboard the International Space Station, specifically target ground temperature over air temperature because it’s typically hotter at the surface. This is reflected in the map’s darker red grid pattern—pavement temperatures even exceeding a broiling 122 degrees Fahrenheit.\n“This is basically a Las Vegas street map,” says David. Asphalt absorbs up to 95 percent of solar radiation, which means that the material emits additional heat at ground level where people are walking and living, he explains. “If people are outside, it’s critical that they have some shade.”\nOther regions of the US have also been bombarded by blistering heat. Excessive heat warnings and heat advisories have impacted more than 95 million people from the southwest to Florida to northern Michigan, according to the Washington Post. “We all know that when flash flooding or thunderstorms or hurricanes are coming, we better take care of ourselves,” Erick Bandala, assistant research professor of environmental science at the Desert Research Institute in Las Vegas, told the Washington Post. “But not really about extreme heat. It’s probably one of the most under-considered risks that we can be facing.”\nAs climate change brings more frequent and more intense heat waves, heat-related injuries and deaths are a growing concern, and especially afflict low-income and minority communities. People of color are more likely to live in hotter cities with urban heat islands (sometimes up to 20 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than communities of predominantly white high-income residents), and therefore wrestle with issues brought by heat.\n“This is part of the history of redlining in the US—sticking poor people, and people of color, in those neighborhoods that are right next to the highway, that have poorer air quality, higher levels of impervious surface, higher temperatures,” says David.\nLast year, a similar heat dome settled over Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia, killing hundreds as temperatures rose to nearly 110 degrees Fahrenheit. During that heat wave, deaths in Portland were concentrated in neighborhoods with lots of asphalt, and few trees. “It just proves that trees really can be life or death infrastructure,” David says.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Their agreement features the reduction of methane emissions, and US Nuclear (OTCQB: UCLE) is ready to help support this goal through its Climate Drone with laser-based methane detection system. On November 2, 2021, the US EPA proposed sweeping new standards to reduce man-made methane emissions from the oil and gas industry.\nMethane and carbon dioxide are the two most damaging greenhouse gases, with methane contributing more than one-third of today’s anthropogenic warming. Methane is more than 25-100 times as potent (per liter of gas) as carbon dioxide at trapping heat in the atmosphere. The production and transport of coal, oil, and natural gas are responsible for approximately 30% of total methane emissions and result in substantial and unnecessary blow offs, leaks, and seepages from oil wells, coal mines, gas pipelines, and refineries.\nUS Nuclear is committed to supporting climate change goals by helping to rapidly locate sources of methane leaks and emissions with their unique drone detection system. US Nuclear offers single or swarming drone systems, mounted with two types of methane sensors: a laser interrogation sensor for rapidly spotting methane emissions down to 5ppm, from up to 100 meters away, and a ‘sniffer’ sensor which actually measures the methane concentration in the air up-close for greater detail. US Nuclear’s drone system reports the methane concentration in real-time, with the data automatically overlaid on a map of the flight path. By rapidly locating the methane leak or emission, quick action can be taken to repair it, otherwise the operator can face large fines as well as temporary or permanent facility shutdown. US Nuclear also supports the fight against global warming through its commitment to MIFTI clean fusion power.\nSafe Harbor Act\nThis press release includes \"forward-looking statements\" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

A major hurricane is one that reaches at least Category 3 status, which requires winds of at least 111 mph.\n“NOAA’s analysis of current and seasonal atmospheric conditions reveals a recipe for an active Atlantic hurricane season this year,” said Neil Jacobs, acting NOAA administrator.\nAn average season produces six Atlantic hurricanes, three of which attain major hurricane strength. Last year saw six hurricanes, including Hurricane Dorian, a storm that grew into one of the most powerful on record and brought catastrophic damage to the Bahamas.\nNOAA said there’s a 60% chance of an above-average season, a 30% chance of an average season and 0% chance of a below-average season.\nThe 2020 forecast, produced by NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center, cited unusually warm water in the Atlantic Ocean and the likely absence of the climate phenomenon called El Niño, which can suppress hurricane formation.\nThe prediction was in line with forecasts from universities and private weather services, which said to expect a busy season. But there will be additional forecasts issued before the season’s peak, which runs from August through October.\nThe prediction calls for 13 to 19 named storms, which means tropical or subtropical storms and hurricanes — storms with wind speeds of at least 39 mph.\nEl Niño is the occasional warming of the eastern Pacific Ocean that can influence worldwide weather patterns. In the Atlantic, El Niño tends to suppress hurricane formation by fostering high-level crosswinds that disrupt the formation of tropical storms and hurricanes, preventing them from establishing their characteristic structure.\nHurricane season runs June 1 through Nov. 30, with the peak coming in August, September and October. This season, like the past five seasons, got off to an early start, with the formation last Saturday of Tropical Storm Arthur.\nThere are currently no potential storms in the Atlantic, according to the hurricane center’s five-day outlook. The next named storm will be called Bertha.\n©2020 Sun Sentinel (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.)\nDistributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.\nIn The News\nIn The News\nA Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor is facing federal fraud charges after allegedly lying about transferring nanotechnology research to organizations associated with the Chinese government.

The team pieced together images taken from Cassini in 2000 to create a video, animating the wave that is disturbing Jupiter´s jet waves. These findings are part of an in-depth study that was published in the April 2012 issue of Icarus. Amy Simon-Miller is leading the research.\n“This is the first time anyone has actually seen direct wave motion in one of Jupiter´s jet streams,” Simon-Miller told NASA.com. “And by comparing this type of interaction in Earth´s atmosphere to what happens on a planet as radically different as Jupiter, we can learn a lot about both planets.”These jet streams are one of only a few ways the Earth and Jupiter are alike. The strongest and most well-known jet streams on Earth circle the northern and southern poles. The winds blow from west to east, but sometimes sway a bit to the north and the south.\nRossby waves, strong and slow moving waves in the Earth´s atmosphere cause these jet streams to wander north and south. On occasion, these rossby waves are so strong that they can blow the jet streams far off course.\nWhat makes the Jupiter jet streams different is how straight and narrow they travel. While these rossby waves were discovered on Jupiter around 20 years ago, the resulting wandering winds could not be traced. Even more confusing for astronomers was the fact that no evidence could be found of these rossby waves on the southern hemisphere of Jupiter.\nNASA employed the Voyager spacecraft, the Hubble telescope, Cassini, and thousands of observations made by amateur astronomers to gain a better understanding of how these rossby waves affected Jupiter´s jet streams.\nThe images captured by Cassini gave the team the proof they were looking for. As the video put together using the images progresses, the well-ordered line of Jet Streams starts to ripple, a sure sign of rossby waves in effect.\n“A planet´s atmosphere is a lot like the string of an instrument,” says co-author Michael D. Allison of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York. “If you pluck the string, it can resonate at different frequencies, which we hear as different notes. In the same way, an atmosphere can resonate with different modes, which is why we find different kinds of waves.”\nBy closely studying and characterizing these waves, the team move one step closer to understanding the deep and complex atmosphere of Jupiter.\nIn addition to the images and subsequent video of the waves, the raw information taken by Cassini is proving to be a treasure trove for team. Combining measurements from Cassini and measurements by the amateur astronomers on the ground, the team was able to calculate weed speeds and wind speed variations.\nUsing the information collected during this project, the team at NASA hopes to gain a better understanding about how atmospheres work.\n“Understanding the emerging analogies between Earth and Jupiter, as well as the obviously profound differences, helps us learn fundamentally what an atmosphere is and how it can behave,” co-author Gianluigi Adamoli said.\nOn the Net:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It's Sunday December 10th, and it's 7:00 in the morning. This advisory is brought to you in part by the Friends of the Utah Avalanche Center in Logan with the help of Import Auto at 502 W, 1400 N.\nThis morning the National Weather Service issued a Snow Advisory for most Utah mountains. The advisory is from 9:00 this morning until 9:00 tomorrow, and the mountains around Logan should receive a decent shot of snow. Snowfall will intensify during the day today, accompanied by moderate southerly winds. The cold front will arrive this evening, with lightning possible. The winds will shift around from the west and then northwest, and snowfall will continue through tonight. Accumulations could add up to a foot or more in favored upper elevation terrain, with 2 to 4 inches forecast for the Bear River Valley. More storminess is in store for the upcoming week, with the next wave coming through on Tuesday.\nIt's 22 degrees and the wind is from the south, holding at around 25 mph this morning at the Campbell Scientific weather station on Logan Peak. Clouds will quickly build up this morning, and snowfall will begin by the time most of us make it up to the trailhead this morning. After more than a week without any snow, there's a wide variety of surface snow conditions in the backcountry. You'll find sun crusts of varying strengths on slopes exposed to direct sun, wind crusts on exposed upper elevation slopes, and rotten feeling sugary snow to the ground on mid-elevation shady slopes or in shallow upper elevation areas. The snow in many areas is punchy, especially around rocks, and sometimes you sink to your knees in nasty sugary snow. This can make hill-climbing and turning in un-compacted terrain somewhat hazardous. Today you should prepare for rapidly accumulating snow. If you drive up the Tony Grove Road, be aware that road conditions may drastically deteriorate by this evening.\nAs snow begins to accumulate on our wide variety of potential weak layers, the avalanche danger will be on the rise. Avalanches remain generally unlikely throughout the region this morning, but by afternoon you might trigger soft slab avalanches on steep slopes. This afternoon I'd be increasingly cautious on steep slopes with developing drifts or substantial deposits of fresh snow, which may not bond well to the underlying old snow surface. With a southerly wind in store for today, drifts are likely to form on the very slopes where weak surface snow exists. In places, drifts are likely to build up on a layer of well developed frost crystals (or surface hoar) or on small sugary grains we call near surface facets. I expect the most danger on upper elevation slopes facing the northern half of the compass. Sunnier slopes sport slick sun crusts of varying strength, which may become sliding surfaces for the accumulating new snow. In short, I expect things to get interesting and the avalanche danger to increase significantly as snow begins to stack up this week in the backcountry.\nThe avalanche danger will rise to MODERATE this afternoon in the backcountry. Triggered soft slab avalanches will become possible on slopes steeper than about 35 degrees as snow piles up during the day. You're most likely to encounter avalanches later today on exposed upper elevation slopes facing the northern half of the compass. Continued snowfall tonight, especially if accompanied by strong winds, will cause the danger in the backcountry to rise further by Monday.\nI'll give a free Avalanche Awareness Talk, open to everyone, at the Logan Ranger District offices on Thursday, December 14th at 6:30.\nThe Tony Grove Road is not maintained in the winter. That means, you can't quite drive a wheeled vehicle all the way to the lake, and you should be prepared to get stuck in a couple feet of snow if you try. Turning around may be difficult. With limited access to upper elevation snow elsewhere, there's lots of snow-hungry people on the Tony Grove Road. Motorized users need to be aware of this, and we need to keep our speed way down in the proximity of pedestrians.\nI'll update my advisories on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and weekend mornings by about 7:00. This advisory will expire early Monday morning, and I may issue a special update if the storm warrants. Normally, I'd update this advisory again on Tuesday evening. Logan Area advisories will be accessible through the new statewide toll-free avalanche info line; 1-888-999-4019.\nIf you're confused by some of our avalanche terms check out the cool new Avalanche Encyclopedia. Please send backcountry observations to [email protected] or leave us a message at 755-3638, especially if you see or trigger an avalanche in the backcountry.\nThe information in this advisory is from the U.S. Forest Service, which is solely responsible for its content. This advisory describes general avalanche conditions and local variations always occur.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

We assessed the association between air pollution and daily respiratory hospitalization for different age and sex groups from 1995 to 2000. The pollutants included were nitrogen dioxide, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, ozone, particulate matter 10 microm in diameter (PM10), coefficient of haze (COH), and total reduced sulfur (TRS). We calculated relative risk (RR) estimates using both time-series and case-crossover methods after controlling for appropriate confounders (temperature, humidity, and change in barometric pressure). The results of both analyses were consistent. We found associations between NO2, SO2, CO, COH, or PM10 and daily hospital admission of respiratory diseases especially among females. For females 0-14 years of age, there was 1-day delayed effect of NO2 (RR = 1.19, case-crossover method), a current-day SO2 (RR = 1.11, time series), and current-day and 1- and 2-day delayed effects for CO by case crossover (RR = 1.15, 1.19, 1.22, respectively). Time-series analysis showed that 1-day delayed effect of PM10 on respiratory admissions of adult males (15-64 years of age), with an RR of 1.18. COH had significant effects on female respiratory hospitalization, especially for 2-day delayed effects on adult females, with RRs of 1.15 and 1.29 using time-series and case-crossover analysis, respectively.

mild start to winter has come to an abrupt halt as a \"winter weather bomb\" caused destructive winds, rain, hail and blizzard conditions in the alpine areas, the Bureau of Meteorology has said.\nForecaster Kevin Parkyn said the intensity of the weather system caused the pressure to drop, bringing winds of up to 130 kilometres per hour and a storm surge along the coast.\nWhile the destructive winds did not last long, the damage across the state was significant.\n\"In that time it saw many centres across the state register wind gusts of between 100 and 110kph,\" Mr Parkyn said.\n\"The highest or peak wind gust was recorded at Cape Otway, where 128kph gusts were recorded earlier this morning.\"\nMelbourne's bayside suburbs were not spared, experiencing peak wind gusts of 110kph on land and 120kph over the water.\nThe State Emergency Service responded to more than 2,500 calls across the state and 1,600 in Melbourne alone.\nThere were about 700 calls related to building damage.\nSpokesman Trevor White said he expected the calls for help to continue as people returned home from work to find more damage.\n\"We expect our [SES] crews, with CFA (Country Fire Authority), DEPI (Department of Environment) and MFB (Metropolitan Fire Brigade) will be working hard through the night and also into tomorrow to clear the damage,\" he said.\nEmergency crews had a number of reports of injuries during the wild conditions, with a number of people being hit by flying debris.\nOne person was injured when a wall collapsed at Yarraville and there were reports of minor injuries from people being hit by flying trampolines and garden furniture.\nAnother person was struck by roof sheeting in the CBD and there were several cases of trees coming down on cars.\nMr Parkyn said the worst of the weather was over but there were more high winds forecast for the rest of the week.\n\"The Bureau of Meteorology is likely to issue severe weather warnings for the rest of the week as the state continues to be buffeted by winter weather systems,\" Mr Parkyn said.\nThere were whiteout conditions in the Alpine areas and up to a metre of snow is forecast by the end of the week.\nFlooding at Melbourne's Southbank precinct\nPonyfish Island, a bar which normally floats on the Yarra River under the pedestrian bridge in the CBD, was swamped with knee-high water as the river swelled due to unexpectedly high tides combined with the bad weather.\nSpokesman Josh Marsh said they would have to wait until the water receded before they could assess the damage.\n\"We could see the water rising but we've had a few minor floods before which weren't an issue but this one kind of caught us by surprise,\" he said.\n\"It happened very quickly.\n\"Luckily we had a flood management plan which we put in place and we just had to get off the island as quick as possible.\"\nThe wharf on the Yarra River, where cruise boats pick up tourists outside Southgate, was also flooded.\nAt least four ticket booths were swamped and water was lapping at the bottoms of benches along the wharf.\nSteven Michalas, of Melbourne River Cruises, said it was the worst flooding he had seen in his 13 years working with the company.\nHe said they had been expecting a high tide but this one reached 1.75 metres.\n\"It was expected to be a 0.88 [metre] tide which isn't too bad, but the tide came up very early,\" he said.\nThe wharfs on both sides of the Yarra were flooded but it was nowhere near high enough to flood the promenade outside Southgate or the shops inside.\nPower gradually being restored\nAt the peak of the storm, up to 80,000 people were without power.\nDamien Batey of United Energy said the worst hit areas were Frankston, the Mornington Peninsula, Sorrento, Mulgrave and Ringwood.\n\"We've also had quite severe wind gusts of in excess of 100kph,\" he said.\n\"That's caused a combination of wires clashing and also situations where power lines have [fallen to the] ground.\"\nPower has been restored to most homes except for some customers in Sorrento, Beaumaris and Bittern.\nLyall Johnson, from Powercor and CitiPower, said up to 35,000 of their customers lost power.\nHe said if people returned home from work and did not have power they should not panic but it may take a bit longer to get about 238 customers near Bendigo back up and running.\n\"There is an area near Bendigo where we're really not sure we're going to get people back on much before [this evening],\" he said.\nOn public transport, most lines were expected to be cleared for the afternoon peak after disruptions on tram and train lines caused by fallen trees.\nThe worst damage was on the Belgrave line near Upper Ferntree Gully.\nTrains will only run to Bayswater station until the clean-up is completed.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

They're not meant to be heard indoors.\n\"You want to have an emergency kit and a designated shelter, either a basement or interior room with no windows.\"\nSmith also suggested families have a disaster plan in case their home is uninhabitable.\n\"If the home is damaged, you need to know where to meet or who to go to,\" he said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

An earlier Tornado Warning was in effect for a main ESE tracking supercell, with plenty of storm reports previously. Out ahead of this storm, a weak cell was approaching from the SW and was beginning to merge and cut off the necessary inflow to the already ongoing tornado in south-central Jasper County.\nThis brought forth an interesting situation. NMDA/NTDA algorithms were lining up but at low probabilities at 2034Z (NTDA 23.56%) which was enough to grab my attention. Since this entire event was tricky due to such an elevated storm environment (analyzing SRM/BV at atleast 3.1º and above), seeing the algorithms line up was enough confidence given to propose a new TOR for the southern part of the current polygon.\nFrom here, NMDA began to show increasing trends which supported a visual interpretation of increasing cyclonic rotation in the mid levels.\nFurther increases in NTDA/NMDA along with increasing Vrot now in the lowest tilt (indicative of either a strengthening tornado or stretching/tightening of rotational velocity to the lowest levels) increased forecaster confidence in the decision of a warning.\nThis was a great illustration of both an early heads up, and a warning confirmation from both algorithms.

Using the Schönbein technique, levels of ozone at sites of interest can be quantified. Ozone molecules are comprised of three oxygen atoms bonded in a structure that is highly reactive as an oxidizing agent, and they occur in both the stratosphere and troposphere levels of the atmosphere.\nOzone molecules in the stratosphere form the ozone layer, which helps prevent harmful UV rays from reaching the Earth's surface. In lower altitudes of the troposphere, ozone is harmful to human health, and as a pollutant contributes to photochemical smog. Ozone can directly damage human respiratory tissue if inhaled, or harm plant tissues and softer materials, including tires on vehicles.\nOzone presence in the troposphere can be quantified using Schönbein paper, a mixture of starch, potassium iodide, and water spread on filter paper. Once dry, the paper changes color in the presence of ozone.\nThis video will illustrate the process of making Schönbein paper, placing and reading test strips, and quantifying ozone levels using the Schönbein color scale.\nOne way that outdoor tropospheric ozone is formed at ground level is when nitrous oxides and volatile organic compounds from automobile emissions are exposed to sunlight. Consequently, conditions for ozone formation and escalated health concern increase in sunny environments, or at times or locations of heavy automobile use.\nIndoors, tropospheric ozone can be formed when electrical discharge from high voltage equipment, like ionic air purifiers, laser printers, or photocopiers, break down the chemical bonds of atmospheric oxygen in the surrounding air. The free radicals of oxygen then combine with an oxygen molecule in the air to create ozone.\nUsing Schönbein paper, filter paper impregnated with a starch and potassium iodide solution, tropospheric ozone can be quantified. Ozone in the air will oxidize the potassium iodide on the paper, producing iodine. The iodine reacts with iodide to produce triiodide, which then reacts with the starch also present on the paper, staining it a deep violet. Intensity of this color will depend on the amount of ozone present in the air, with darker colors indicating higher amounts of tropospheric ozone.\nDetermining the ozone concentration using this method can be performed at almost any site, indoor or outdoors. Now that we are familiar with the principles behind the Schönbein measurement, let us take a look at how to perform the experiment.\nTo begin the procedure, place 100 mL of distilled water into a 250-mL beaker. To this, add 6 g of cornstarch. Place the beaker onto a heated stir plate. Turn the heat to a medium-high setting, and stir the mixture until it reaches approximately 90 °C and forms a gel. Next, remove the beaker from the heat source and add 1 g, or ¼ teaspoon, of potassium iodide and stir thoroughly until the potassium iodide is dissolved. Allow the solution to cool for 5 min on the bench top.\nLay a piece of filter paper on a glass plate, and using a small paintbrush, carefully brush the paste onto the filter paper. Turn the filter paper over and repeat on the other side, applying the paste as uniformly as possible. Set the paper out overnight away from sunlight to dry. Alternatively, place in a drying oven at 20 °C until dry. Once dry, cut the paper into 1-inch wide strips. If storing the paper for later use, place the strips in a sealable plastic bag or glass jar out of direct sunlight.\nTo detect ozone, first spray the strips of test paper lightly with distilled water. Hang a minimum of three strips at each data collection site out of direct sunlight, securely fastened by one end to a structure, or hung by wire. Ensure the strips are unobstructed. Leave the test strips to hang for 8 h.\nNote where each strip was hung, and using a psychrometer, measure relative humidity at each site. Alternatively, accessing weather data, record relative humidity at each location during paper exposure. If results will not be read immediately, strips can be sealed in an airtight container after exposure.\nTo observe and record test results, spray the paper with distilled water. Observe the color by comparing it to the Schönbein color scale and record the corresponding number. Calculate the average Schönbein number for each site.\nUse the relative humidity data for each site and the Relative Humidity Schönbein Number Chart to convert Schönbein site averages to ozone concentration, or parts per billion.\nThe ability to measure and record tropospheric ozone levels has many diverse applications, and the results of such tests can have significant implications for human populations.\nIn heavily populated urban centers, the convergence of high automobile traffic and dense human population can be a concern for ozone related health problems. Current US thresholds for ozone set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration are at 0.1 ppm. Health risks of exposure above this level including headaches; eye, nose, and throat irritation; lung damage and hemorrhage, amongst others. In urban Chicagoland, test strips placed for 8 h on a July day in Evanston, Cicero, and Northbrook recorded ozone levels of 71 ppb, 60 ppb, 71 ppb, respectively.\nIndoors, safe thresholds for ozone levels are the same as outdoors, and carry the same potential health risks. To ensure the safety of workers or building residents, any premises with large amounts of high-voltage equipment should be tested for ozone levels. Strips placed in the copy machine room for 8 h recorded an indoor ozone level of 5 ppb, which is well below the United States Office of Safety guidelines.\nBecause of the action of sunlight transforming nitrous oxide and volatile organic compounds into ozone, heatwaves or exceptionally sunny periods can be of concern for urban residents. Monitoring ozone levels over time can build up a picture of potential risk, and allow authorities to issue warnings or ask residents to reduce automobile use at times of high ozone.\nYou've just watched JoVE's introduction to measuring tropospheric ozone. You should now understand how tropospheric ozone is formed and why it is a concern, how to make Schönbein paper to test for ozone, and how to interpret test results. Thanks for watching!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A new type of conditional sampler was developed that only exposes the passive samplers when a user-defined set of wind and weather conditions are met. Samplers were deployed on portable tripods that were linked using a wireless sensor network. A base-station with an anemometer, wind vane, thermometer, and humidity sensor controlled all the tripods allowing synoptic sampling. Multiple tripods, equipped with Radiello diffusive NH3 samplers, were deployed at a dairy and programmed to only expose the passive samplers when the upwind source area represented a specific zone of the operation. Time-averaged ammonia concentrations were used to approximate emissions using both 2-D and 3-D inverse dispersion models.

Scott called for continued caution, and warned Vermonters to steer clear of floodwaters.\n\"We've seen many pictures on social media of kids swimming in floodwaters,\" he said. \"This is not typical rainwater — it's filled with chemicals, oil, waste, and more.

The study compared more than 30 state-of-the-art climate models from all around the world.\nThe study warned that the shift may entail grave consequences for India’s economy, food systems and people’s well-being.\nFor every degree Celsius of warming, monsoon rainfalls will likely increase by about 5 per cent, according to lead author Anja Katzenberger from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK) and Ludwig-Maximilian University in Munich, Germany (LMU).\nShe added that global warming is increasing monsoon rainfall in India even more than previously thought: “It is dominating monsoon dynamics in the 21st century.”\nThe Indian summer monsoon plays a crucial role in India’s agriculture and affects the livelihood of a fifth of the world’s population. About 80 per cent of the annual precipitation over India occurs during the summer period, supplying water to crops during the prime agricultural season.\nToo much rainfall or a volatile monsoon pattern, however, can damage crops.\nThe study underlined that from 1980 onwards, greenhouse-gas induced warming has played a massive role in making monsoon seasons more volatile.\nAccording to author Anders Levermann from PIK and Columbia University:\n“We see more and more that climate change is about unpredictable weather extremes and their serious consequences. Because what is really on the line is the socio-economic well-being of the Indian subcontinent.”\nHe reiterated that a more “chaotic monsoon season poses a threat to the agriculture and economy in the region.” It should be a wakeup call for policy makers to cut down global greenhouse gas emissions, he noted.\nWe are a voice to you; you have been a support to us.

But most planes had been filled.\nUniversity of Pittsburgh students Patrick Araya and Uriah West, both 19, waited Wednesday morning at the airport in Findlay to board their US Airways flight home to Philadelphia. It was delayed for at least an hour and switched gates.\n“They didn’t say (why it was delayed), but I assume it’s storm-related,” Araya said.\n“Hopefully, it’s only an hour,” West said. “This is messing up my plans.”\nDorothy Weiss, 79, of Bethel Park hustled to catch a flight to Newark to visit family for Thanksgiving.\n“My (original) flight was canceled. I was supposed to fly out around 11 or 12. They moved me up to an earlier flight,” Weiss said. “I didn’t hear anything. I just got here early and saw it on the marquee.”\nJoanne Jordan, 69, and her husband, Dale Noelting, 64, were headed to Norfolk to visit their son and grandchildren. They were flying through Philadelphia, but their flight was delayed only 15 minutes.\n“We have a 2 1⁄2-hour layover in Philadelphia, so we have some time,” Jordan said.\nMore moderate weather is expected for the rest of the holiday weekend in and around Pittsburgh, Rehak said, with a chance of snow showers after 3 p.m. Thursday and a high of 37. Temperatures could reach 45 on Saturday and 55 on Sunday with a chance of showers.\nThe storm, which forecasters say will taper off to light snow over northern New England by Thanksgiving morning, is expected to move to Eastern Canada by Friday.\nState police said traffic along the Pennsylvania Turnpike was moving “pretty well” Wednesday night with no major delays. There were multiple crashes reported along the turnpike in the afternoon “but nothing significant,” a trooper said.\nMore than 7 inches of snow fell in Breezewood, and Gov. Tom Corbett’s office closed government offices under his jurisdiction in and around Harrisburg, Reading, Wilkes-Barre and Scranton.\nThe wintry weather was not confined to the Northeast. An Alberta clipper left many highways slick in parts of Montana and the Dakotas, and a winter storm warning was issued for parts of Minnesota.\nNot everyone was unhappy with the storm. Ski areas across northern New England were pleased by the prospect of the snow luring skiers to the slopes and offering a promising start to the winter season.\nThe Associated Press, Reuters and Bloomburg News contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

This is evident even at levels well below those stipulated in current European Union (EU) air-quality directives, according to one of the largest studies of its kind, published in The Lancet Respiratory Medicine.\nâ??Our findings suggest that a substantial proportion of cases of low birthweight babies at term could be prevented in Europe if urban air pollution, particularly fine particulate matter, was reduced,â? explains Dr Marie Pedersen from the Centre for Research in Environmental Epidemiology in Barcelona, Spain.\nEuropean doctors research impact of pollution\nPedersen was part of a team of European researchers who assessed the impact of exposure to low levels of air pollution during pregnancy on birthweight at term. This exposure has also been linked to respiratory problems in childhood, as well as other diseases later in life.\nUsing data from the European Study of Cohorts for Air Pollution Effects (ESCAPE, coordinated by the University of Utrecht, the Netherlands), the investigators pooled data from 14 cohort studies in 12 European countries involving over 74 000 women who had singleton babies between February 1994 and June 2011.\nAir pollution concentrations of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter were estimated at their home addresses using land-use regression models. Traffic density on the nearest road and total traffic load on all major roads within 100 metres of each residence were also recorded.\nAll air pollutants, particularly fine particulate matter, and traffic density – apart from increasing the risk of term low birthweight – also reduced the average head circumference at birth, which is concerning because of the potential effect on neurodevelopment.\nEuropean air quality needs to be improved says researcher\nAccording to Dr Pedersen, â??The widespread exposure of pregnant women worldwide to urban ambient air pollution at similar or even higher concentrations than those assessed in our study provides a clear message to policy makers to improve the quality of the air we all share.â?\nPollution creates vulnerable offspring\nWriting in a linked comment, Professor Jonathan Grigg from Queen Mary, University of London, says that â??Overall, maternal exposure to traffic-derived particulate matter probably increases vulnerability of their offspring to a wide range of respiratory disorders in both infancy and later lifeâ?¦Dissemination of [these] results to the wider public could therefore further increase the pressure on policy makers to reduce the exposure of urban populations to particulate matterâ?¦.â?\nFor full article and comment see: http://press.thelancet.com/birthweight.pdf\nWhile All4Women endeavours to ensure health articles are based on scientific research, health articles should not be considered as a replacement for professional medical advice.

The index runs from zero to 500 and accounts for the level of airborne PM 2.5 particulates — tiny particles considered the most harmful to health.\nGenerally, the air quality is considered good when the index is at 50 or below, and hazardous with an index between 301 and 500, when people are warned to avoid outdoor physical activities. Those with respiratory problems, the elderly and children are asked to stay indoors.\nThe air started to turn bad on Thursday, and monitors in Beijing reported air quality indexes above 300 by Friday. The monitoring center said Saturday that the pollution was expected to linger for the next three days and urged residents, especially the most vulnerable, to stay home as much as possible.\nThe air quality data are the worst in Beijing since the municipal government began to track PM2.5 early last year, said Zhou Rong of the environmental organization Green Peace.\nMonitors at the U.S. Embassy in Beijing recorded an off-the-chart air-quality reading of 755 at 8 p.m. Saturday and said the PM2.5 density had reached 886 micrograms per cubic meter. It was unclear whether the embassy's data were the worst since it began collecting and sharing such information in 2008.\nReadings are often different in different parts of Beijing. Chinese authorities and the United States also have different ways to calculate the air quality index, although their indexes are \"highly similar\" at the two ends of the spectrum, said Ma Jun, founder of the nongovernmental Institute of Public and Environmental Affairs in Beijing.\nAir pollution is a major problem in China due to the country's rapid pace of industrialization, reliance on coal power, explosive growth in car ownership and disregard to environmental laws. It typically gets worse in the winter because of heating needs. Continued...\nIn Beijing, authorities have blamed foggy conditions and a lack of wind for the high concentration of air pollutants.\nSeveral other cities, including Tianjin on the coast east of Beijing and southern China's Wuhan city, also reported severe pollution over the last several days.\nSee wrong or incorrect information in a story.

You will want to a nice open place without buildings or trees to obscure your view. Also consider a blanket, reclining lawn chair, a thermos with a hot drink, and binoculars for star gazing. Be sure to dress warmly enough, dress 20 degrees colder than the actual temperature. The reason for this is that astronomical observing is a very sedentary activity and thus to tend to get colder more quickly and it takes more time to warm up due to the lack of activity.\nWhen it is said a meteor shower will peak on a specific date, it specially means that date, early in the morning (i.e. - 1am, 2am, etc.).\nThe reason why meteor showers often occur late at night or in the wee hours of the morning is that we have to wait for our section of the Earth to face the oncoming meteor debris cloud the lies between us and the constellation Gemini. Think of it like being in a car driving in a snow storm. As long as the car is driving away from the storm or to the side of the storm you don't see much affect. However, as soon as, the car turns into the storm the windshield is immediately peppered with more snowflakes than the wipers can handle. That's the way it is with any meteor shower. We need to wait for the debris cloud to be directly in front of the earth before we see anything. Also, meteors are actually faint, with respect to day and early evening light, we need to wait until the earth enters its maximum hours of darkness. This usually occurs between the hours of 11PM - Dawn.\nFor more information about observing meteor showers, check out the following article on Sky and Telescope, click >> HERE.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Satellite imagery indicated that Narelle's eye was approximately 15 nautical miles (17.2 miles/27.8 km) wide. Satellite imagery also showed that Narelle had become more symmetrical and bands of thunderstorms had become more tightly wrapped into the center since Jan. 10.\nNarelle Now a Major Cyclone\nOn Jan. 11 at 1500 UTC (10 a.m. EST), Tropical Cyclone Narelle's maximum sustained winds had increased to 115 knots (132.3 mph/213 kph), just as predicted by the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC). Narelle is now a major cyclone and a Category 4 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Scale. JTWC forecasters expect Narelle has now reached peak intensity and will begin to weaken hereafter as it moves parallel to the coast of Western Australia.\nNarelle was located about 255 nautical miles (293.4 miles/472.3 km) north-northwest of Learmonth, Australia, near 18.3 south latitude and 112.6 east longitude. Narelle was moving to the southwest at 8 knots (9.2 mph/14.8 kph). Narelle is moving along the northwestern edge of a sub-tropical ridge (elongated area) of high pressure that is centered over Western Australia. The JTWC forecast noted that Narelle is expected to round the western edge of this ridge over the next three days before it recurves southeastward. By Jan. 14, the JTWC expects the system will become a cold core low pressure system as it moves over cooler waters and encounters increasing vertical wind shear.\nNASA Satellite Sees Narelle's Heavy Rainfall\nNASA's Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite captured rainfall rates in Major Cyclone Narelle on Jan. 11 at 0654 UTC (1:54 a.m. EST). The heaviest rainfall was occurring at a rate of 2 inches (50 mm) per hour and stretched from north to west of the center of circulation.\nWarnings and Watches Posted\nUntil that time, however, warnings and watches are posted along the coastal areas of Western Australia. On Jan. 11, a Cyclone Warning was in effect for coastal areas from Mardie to Cape Cuvier. A Cyclone Watch is in effect for coastal areas from Cape Cuvier to Denham. A Blue Alert is effect for coastal and island communities from Mardie to Coral Bay including Onslow, Exmouth.\nAt 11 a.m. EST (1600 UTC) on Jan. 11, Onslow was reporting thunderstorms and sustained winds from the east-northeast. Onslow is a coastal town in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, located 1,386 kilometers (861 miles) north of Perth. Thunderstorms are expected to continue in the Pilbara region through Sunday, Jan. 13 as Narelle's center passes by while staying off shore. Onslow, Exmouth and other towns and cities in the Pilbara region are expected to clear by Monday, Jan. 14 as Narelle moves away.\nFor updates on warnings and watches, visit the Australian Bureau of Meteorology website: http://www.bom.gov.au/. The latest forecast from the JTWC (as of Jan. 11) keeps the center of Narelle over open water and never making landfall in any part of Western Australia. Narelle is expected to pass the southwestern tip of Australia sometime on Jan. 16 and move in a southeasterly direction over the Southern Indian Ocean where it will dissipate.\nRob Gutro | EurekAlert!\nIce cave in Transylvania yields window into region's past\n28.04.2017 | National Science Foundation\nCitizen science campaign to aid disaster response\n28.04.2017 | International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA)\nMore and more automobile companies are focusing on body parts made of carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP).

Whenever you are home or away, Aurora Alerts will notify you if the possibility of seeing the northern lights exists.\nWhat is the best time to see the Northern Lights?\nNovember through to February offer the darkest skies and longer evenings for maximum sky-gazing. The strongest lights tend to appear between 9pm and 2am, though the best sightings often occur between 11pm and midnight.\nIs 2022 a good year to see the Northern Lights?\n2022 was a great year in terms of solar activity, and we saw great displays during our Iceland Northern Lights Photo Tour and our Orcas & Aurora tour in Norway, with the biggest displays that we have seen in years.\nHow to see Northern Lights?\nThe best way to see the northern lights is to head north. Most of the molecular activity that causes the northern lights happens near the Earth’s magnetic poles. For that reason, the Arctic region is an ideal location for hunting the aurora. In fact, some of the best light shows happen near or above the Arctic Circle.\nIs there a Northern Lights app? – Related Questions\nCan you take a picture of the Northern Lights on your phone?\nIt is possible to take a good Northern Lights photo with your Android or iPhone, using nothing more than the camera setting on your smartphone.\nIs there anywhere in the UK you can see the Northern Lights?\nPredominantly the northern lights are best witnessed in Scotland, North England, North Wales and Northern Ireland. However under severe space weather conditions, the lights can be seen throughout the UK.\nWhere is the best place to see Northern Lights?\nWhat are the best places to see the Northern Lights?\n- Tromso, Norway. Based in the heart of the aurora zone in the Norwegian Arctic, the city is widely regarded as one of the world’s best places to see the Northern Lights.\n- Swedish Lapland.\n- Reykjavik, Iceland.\n- Yukon, Canada.\n- Rovaniemi, Finnish Lapland.\n- Ilulissat, Greenland.\nCan you see the Northern Lights with the naked eye?\nYes. If the Northern Lights are strong enough you can see them with your naked eye. However, most photographs of the Northern Lights are taken with special camera setups, and at least a long shutter speed.\nDo Northern Lights come every night?\nNo. Huge geomagnetic storms, the kind that can cause very intense displays of the northern lights, don’t happen every night, even during solar maximum.\nWhat’s the cheapest way to see the Northern Lights?\nBook a tour\nThe cheapest way is to book a northern lights hunt*, a tour in which you will likely be driven around in a group as the guide tries to find a good vantage spot free of other spotters.\nWhat is the average cost to see the Northern Lights?\nAll northern lights trips are delivered by 13 tour operators in Europe. Prices range from 108 USD to 8,501 USD and our northern lights trips last from 1 day and to 20 days.\nIs Norway or Iceland better for Northern Lights?\nIf you’re set on seeing the lights, this might tip the balance in favour of Iceland, depending on what else you want to see and do on your trip. The northern lights can often be seen from the center of Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland.\nDo you need a passport to see the Northern Lights?\nPlease note valid passports are required.\nPlease note as the Northern Lights is a natural phenomenon, we cannot guarantee a successful sighting.\nWhat are you not supposed to do at the Northern Lights?\nDon’t whistle at the Northern Lights\nThe biggest faux pas you can commit while viewing the Northern Lights is to wave, sing or whistle at them. Alerted to your presence, the spirits of the lights will come down and take you away.\nHow many months out of the year can you see the Northern Lights?\nThe Northern Lights are unpredictable.\nIn order to see the Northern Lights, you need a dark, clear night. They are visible from late August to early April anytime during dark hours, which in places like Abisko or Tromsø can be nearly 24 hours a day in winter.\nDo you need special equipment to see the Northern Lights?\nA camera with manual mode is required for northern lights photography. You must be able to control f-stop, shutter speed, and ISO, each manually. I use and recommend full-frame cameras such as the Nikon Z7.\nWhat is the rarest Northern light?\nPink auroras are far rarer than green ones. The reason has to do with the Earth’s magnetic field, according to spaceweather. Normal auroras take place higher in the atmosphere (between 100 and 300 kilometres), where oxygen particles excited by solar wind give off a green hue.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

When cooled below the bleedin' dew point, moisture capacity is reduced and airborne water vapor will condense to form liquid water known as dew. C'mere til I tell ya now. When this occurs via contact with a bleedin' colder surface, dew will form on that surface.\nWhen the feckin' temperature is below the feckin' freezin' point of water, the dew point is called the oul' frost point, as frost is formed via deposition rather than condensation. In liquids, the bleedin' analog to the dew point is the feckin' cloud point.\nIf all the feckin' other factors influencin' humidity remain constant, at ground level the bleedin' relative humidity rises as the oul' temperature falls; this is because less vapor is needed to saturate the oul' air. In normal conditions, the dew point temperature will not be greater than the feckin' air temperature, since relative humidity typically does not exceed 100%.\nIn technical terms, the bleedin' dew point is the bleedin' temperature at which the oul' water vapor in a feckin' sample of air at constant barometric pressure condenses into liquid water at the bleedin' same rate at which it evaporates. At temperatures below the oul' dew point, the bleedin' rate of condensation will be greater than that of evaporation, formin' more liquid water, the hoor. The condensed water is called dew when it forms on a solid surface, or frost if it freezes. In the feckin' air, the condensed water is called either fog or a cloud, dependin' on its altitude when it forms. If the feckin' temperature is below the oul' dew point, and no dew or fog forms, the vapor is called supersaturated. C'mere til I tell ya now. This can happen if there are not enough particles in the air to act as condensation nuclei.\nA high relative humidity implies that the feckin' dew point is close to the oul' current air temperature, be the hokey! A relative humidity of 100% indicates the oul' dew point is equal to the bleedin' current temperature and that the oul' air is maximally saturated with water. When the bleedin' moisture content remains constant and temperature increases, relative humidity decreases, but the dew point remains constant.\nIncreasin' the barometric pressure increases the dew point. This means that, if the feckin' pressure increases, the oul' mass of water vapor per volume unit of air must be reduced in order to maintain the bleedin' same dew point. Jasus. For example, consider New York City (33 ft or 10 m elevation) and Denver (5,280 ft or 1,610 m elevation). Here's another quare one. Because Denver is at a holy higher elevation than New York, it will tend to have a lower barometric pressure. Right so. This means that if the dew point and temperature in both cities are the feckin' same, the feckin' amount of water vapor in the air will be greater in Denver.\nRelationship to human comfort\nThis section needs additional citations for verification. (October 2016)\nWhen the bleedin' air temperature is high, the bleedin' human body uses the bleedin' evaporation of sweat to cool down, with the oul' coolin' effect directly related to how fast the oul' perspiration evaporates. The rate at which perspiration can evaporate depends on how much moisture is in the bleedin' air and how much moisture the air can hold. If the air is already saturated with moisture (humid), perspiration will not evaporate, for the craic. The body's thermoregulation will produce perspiration in an effort to keep the oul' body at its normal temperature even when the rate at which it is producin' sweat exceeds the evaporation rate, so one can become coated with sweat on humid days even without generatin' additional body heat (such as by exercisin').\nAs the bleedin' air surroundin' one's body is warmed by body heat, it will rise and be replaced with other air, would ye swally that? If air is moved away from one's body with a natural breeze or a fan, sweat will evaporate faster, makin' perspiration more effective at coolin' the bleedin' body. Bejaysus this is a quare tale altogether. The more unevaporated perspiration, the greater the bleedin' discomfort.\nDiscomfort also exists when the feckin' dew point is very low (below around −5 °C or 23 °F). The drier air can cause skin to crack and become irritated more easily, the hoor. It will also dry out the bleedin' airways. Sufferin' Jaysus listen to this. The US Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommends indoor air be maintained at 20–24.5 °C (68–76 °F) with an oul' 20–60% relative humidity, equivalent to a holy dew point of approximately 4.0 to 16.5 °C (39 to 62 °F) (by Simple Rule calculation below).\nLower dew points, less than 10 °C (50 °F), correlate with lower ambient temperatures and cause the body to require less coolin', what? A lower dew point can go along with a feckin' high temperature only at extremely low relative humidity, allowin' for relatively effective coolin'.\nPeople inhabitin' tropical and subtropical climates acclimatize somewhat to higher dew points, bedad. Thus, a holy resident of Singapore or Miami, for example, might have a feckin' higher threshold for discomfort than an oul' resident of a holy temperate climate like London or Chicago. People accustomed to temperate climates often begin to feel uncomfortable when the dew point gets above 15 °C (59 °F), while others might find dew points up to 18 °C (64 °F) comfortable. Most inhabitants of temperate areas will consider dew points above 21 °C (70 °F) oppressive and tropical-like, while inhabitants of hot and humid areas may not find this uncomfortable. Would ye believe this shite?Thermal comfort depends not just on physical environmental factors, but also on psychological factors.\nDevices called hygrometers are used to measure dew point over a bleedin' wide range of temperatures. These devices consist of an oul' polished metal mirror which is cooled as air is passed over it. Sure this is it. The temperature at which dew forms is, by definition, the bleedin' dew point. Whisht now and listen to this wan. Manual devices of this sort can be used to calibrate other types of humidity sensors, and automatic sensors may be used in an oul' control loop with a humidifier or dehumidifier to control the bleedin' dew point of the bleedin' air in a feckin' buildin' or in a smaller space for an oul' manufacturin' process.\n|Dew point||Relative humidity at 32 °C (90 °F)|\n|Over 26 °C||Over 80 °F||73% and higher|\n|24–26 °C||75–80 °F||62–72%|\n|21–24 °C||70–74 °F||52–61%|\n|18–21 °C||65–69 °F||44–51%|\n|16–18 °C||60–64 °F||37–43%|\n|13–16 °C||55–59 °F||31–36%|\n|10–12 °C||50–54 °F||26–30%|\n|Under 10 °C||Under 50 °F||25% and lower|\nCalculatin' the bleedin' dew point\nA well-known approximation used to calculate the dew point, Tdp, given just the oul' actual (\"dry bulb\") air temperature, T (in degrees Celsius) and relative humidity (in percent), RH, is the oul' Magnus formula:\nFor greater accuracy, Ps(T) (and therefore γ(T, RH)) can be enhanced, usin' part of the oul' Bögel modification, also known as the oul' Arden Buck equation, which adds a feckin' fourth constant d:\n- a = 6.1121 mbar, b = 18.678, c = 257.14 °C, d = 234.5 °C.\nThere are several different constant sets in use. Jesus, Mary and Joseph. The ones used in NOAA's presentation are taken from a holy 1980 paper by David Bolton in the feckin' Monthly Weather Review:\n- a = 6.112 mbar, b = 17.67, c = 243.5 °C.\nThese valuations provide a feckin' maximum error of 0.1%, for −30 °C ≤ T ≤ 35°C and 1% < RH < 100%. Also noteworthy is the Sonntag1990,\n- a = 6.112 mbar, b = 17.62, c = 243.12 °C; for −45 °C ≤ T ≤ 60 °C (error ±0.35 °C).\nAnother common set of values originates from the feckin' 1974 Psychrometry and Psychrometric Charts, as presented by Paroscientific,\n- a = 6.105 mbar, b = 17.27, c = 237.7 °C; for 0 °C ≤ T ≤ 60 °C (error ±0.4 °C).\nAlso, in the bleedin' Journal of Applied Meteorology and Climatology, Arden Buck presents several different valuation sets, with different maximum errors for different temperature ranges, so it is. Two particular sets provide a range of −40 °C to +50 °C between the bleedin' two, with even lower maximum error within the oul' indicated range than all the sets above:\n- a = 6.1121 mbar, b = 17.368, c = 238.88 °C; for 0 °C ≤ T ≤ 50 °C (error ≤ 0.05%).\n- a = 6.1121 mbar, b = 17.966, c = 247.15 °C; for −40 °C ≤ T ≤ 0 °C (error ≤ 0.06%).\nThere is also a holy very simple approximation that allows conversion between the feckin' dew point, temperature, and relative humidity. This approach is accurate to within about ±1 °C as long as the bleedin' relative humidity is above 50%:\nThis can be expressed as a bleedin' simple rule of thumb:\nFor every 1 °C difference in the bleedin' dew point and dry bulb temperatures, the relative humidity decreases by 5%, startin' with RH = 100% when the bleedin' dew point equals the bleedin' dry bulb temperature.\nThe derivation of this approach, a discussion of its accuracy, comparisons to other approximations, and more information on the feckin' history and applications of the feckin' dew point, can be found in an article published in the feckin' Bulletin of the feckin' American Meteorological Society.\nFor temperatures in degrees Fahrenheit, these approximations work out to\nFor example, a feckin' relative humidity of 100% means dew point is the oul' same as air temp, you know yerself. For 90% RH, dew point is 3 °F lower than air temperature. Here's a quare one. For every 10 percent lower, dew point drops 3 °F.\nThe frost point is similar to the feckin' dew point in that it is the bleedin' temperature to which a given parcel of humid air must be cooled, at constant atmospheric pressure, for water vapor to be deposited on a surface as ice crystals without undergoin' the bleedin' liquid phase (compare with sublimation). The frost point for a feckin' given parcel of air is always higher than the dew point, as breakin' the bleedin' stronger bondin' between water molecules on the bleedin' surface of ice compared to the bleedin' surface of liquid water requires a bleedin' higher temperature.\n- \"How To: Eliminate Window Condensation\".\n- \"Dew Point\".

It was incredible and the sky was strange.\n'I've never seen anything like that before. I don't think I was scared, just astonished. I grabbed my camera from the house and rushed out to see it.\n'When it started to fade I drove down to see if I could catch it. I fancy myself as a bit of a mini-tornado chaser.'\nSarah Holland, from the Met Office, said the 'Twister of Tintagel' was actually a rare funnel cloud that would be called a waterspout if it touched the sea.\n'Funnel clouds can occur if the right conditions are in place and although they’re not a sight you see very often, they do happen from time to time.\n'Tornadoes aren't that common, but they are a part of the UK climate; between 30 and 40 are reported on average each year.'\nLast night, there were reports of flooding and huge seas resulted in a number of dramatic rescues.\nHomes in St Agnes, Cornwall, were flooded and rescue teams from Perranporth were scrambled to pump out water and sewage.\nAn air-sea rescue helicopter airlifted three crewmen injured on two boats in stormy weather off the Isles of Scilly this morning.\nOne man suffered a broken ankle and two others suffered a fractured arm and cuts.\nKen Bazeley of Falmouth Coastguard said 'There are several vessels that we are monitoring all the time as they make their way back to Falmouth or Plymouth or the south coast of Cornwall that have suffered mast or steering problems.'\nThe Penlee lifeboat was also launched this morning to go to a yacht which broadcast a Mayday.\nAn RNLI spokesman said 'The Penlee all-weather lifeboat launched to assist a 38ft yacht with two people on board 12 miles south of Newlyn.\n'The yacht had managed to lose a sail overboard that got tangled around the keel and rudder in a south east gale.\n'The lifeboat arrived on the scene in 40 minutes and managed to secure a rope to the yacht then started the tow back to Newlyn.\n'Later the Penlee Inshore Lifeboat launched as the vessels approached the harbour to help tow the yacht through the gaps in testing conditions, and the yacht was safely moored.'\nEmpty: The dreadful weather conditions have affected the tourist industry. These pedalos wait to be hired on a bleak-looking beach in Weymouth, Dorset\nBleak: Despite it being the middle of June, the storms in Weymouth have left it looking deserted\nIt's coming: NASA's Terra satellite took this stunning image of the 70mph Atlantic storm at 12.45pm yesterday as it span towards the South-West\nMeanwhile there were reports that two more ran yachts had run aground in huge seas off Plymouth in Devon.\nThis morning the 9.15am Scillonian Ferry service between Penzance and the Isles of Scilly was cancelled because of dangerously high seas.\nA number of boats were ripped from their moorings during the night in Falmouth and Penryn in Cornwall.\nThe Environment Agency said people in Devon and Cornwall should 'remain prepared' for the possibility of flooding.\nDevon County Council said its highways department, which was still clearing up debris from last week’s storms, was 'geared up' to deal with any incidents.\nThe storms have resulted in some huge seas of the coastline with surfers taking advantage of massive waves in Harlyn Bay in Cornwall.\nHuge waves were also seen crashing over a lighthouse in Porthcawl, Wales.\nThe Environment Agency last night issued flood warnings – the second-highest level of alert – for the South East and East Anglia and announced a further 12 flood alerts in other areas.\nIt said its specialist teams would closely monitor river levels and use pumping equipment in the worst-affected areas. The warnings cover 32,500 properties.\nEnjoying the final few glimmers of sun: With yet more rain and stormy weather forecast, Freya Kirkpatrick , 4, takes a last chance to play in the sunshine with her dog, Monty, in a giant field of ox eye daisies on the edge of Blithfield Reservoir near Rugeley, Staffordshire\nFlying high... while they can: Paragliders take advantage of break in the miserable weather over Beachy Head and Eastbourne in East Sus+++ yesterday\nMaking the most of it: The paragliders may have to back up they chutes soon, though, as more downpours are sweeping their way across the UK today\nSpeaking about firefighters being on flood alert, councillor Brian Coleman, Chairman of the Local Government Association’s Fire Services Management Committee, said:\n'Crews across the country are on standby for any incidences of flooding. We know from previous experience the disruption, and in some cases devastation, that flooding can cause. People can be assured that whatever turn the weather takes, fire crews and council staff will be out in force doing everything they can to help.\n'Fire crews have been advising people in flood risk areas to exercise an extra degree of caution. Parents should be keeping a close eye on their children and warning them of the potential dangers of going too near to rivers and streams.\n'In some areas motorists have been ignoring flood warnings and driving into roads submerged in water – some have been blindly following their satnavs. Water on the road can be deeper than it looks so it is vital that drivers do not ignore road closure and diversion signs. Vehicles can float away in as little as two feet of water.'\nThis latest storm comes after a brief respite for Britain which had been enjoying better weather following dreadful conditions earlier this week.\nMore than three inches, or 80mm, fell in just 24 hours and left homes and roads flooded.\nSpeaking about this weekend's weather, a spokesman for the Environment Agency said: ‘The heavy rainfall is expected to spread into central and north eastern England on Friday, with heavy showers to follow throughout the day and into Saturday.\nCalm before the storm: The sky above the Queens tennis club on day three of the AEGON Championships in London hint at what is to come","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

He was treated at a hospital for scraped feet and arms.\nSan Diego fire-rescue crews responded to 75 calls in three hours. Most dealt with cars in flooded intersections, including instances in which a woman and her dog were pulled to safety and a family of four was rescued from their vehicle as waters swiftly rose.\nDespite the potential for flooding and mudslides, the wet weather was welcome news for a state suffering from a severe drought. But officials warned residents against abandoning conservation efforts and reverting to wasteful water-use habits.\nCalifornia’s water deficit is so deep after four years of drought that a steady parade of storms will be needed for years to come, said Mike Anderson, climatologist for the state Department of Water Resources.\nThe current El Nino system — a natural warming of the central Pacific Ocean that interacts with the atmosphere and changes weather worldwide — has tied a system in 1997-1998 as the strongest on record, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Climate Prediction Center said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Air gets drawn into the machine, then a network of computers does the analysis.\n“There’s a filter that gets weighed in one monitor and then the other type of monitor, the particulate matter is deposited on the filter, and the beta attenuation of those particles is measured by sensors in the analyzer that translates to mass,” said Flagg.\nThe regulatory monitors, which cost tens of thousands of dollars, calculate particulate matter, gaseous pollutants like Nitrogen dioxide, and ozone, then publish the AQI numbers hourly through AirNow, which is run by the EPA.\nAs wildfires ripped through millions of acres last month, the EPA and U.S. Forest Service launched a pilot program, adding data from low-cost sensors like Purple Air, that use laser and light technology to pump out numbers every ten minutes.\n“Looking at a number of different things is the way I look at air quality and encourage folks to do that as well,” said Flagg.\nThe new map is intended to help people make decisions to protect their health during fires.MORE NEWS: San Francisco Bay Ferry Officials Considering 1-Year Reduction In Fares\nThe EPA will not use the data collected for that program to make regulatory decisions since it’s partly relying on the low-cost commercially available air quality sensors.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It is slightly behind the schedule but such delays are normal. There is no cause of concern for farm activities,\" he said.\nMeanwhile, after a brief pause for two days, monsoon advanced gently and covered parts of Bihar, Jharkhand, parts of eastern Uttar Pradesh and eastern Madhya Pradesh. \"In the next two days, there will be heavy rainfall in the north-eastern and eastern parts of the country. We expect fast advancement in the next 48 hours,\" said Dr M Mohapatra, spokesman and scientist at IMD.\nIMD is likely to come out with an updated forecast on Friday, giving a detailed account of monsoon-influencing phenomena like El Nino and IOD. It will also provide a region-wise breakup of rainfall besides predicting the behaviour of the monsoon in July and August which are crucial for farm output.\nThe rain deficit in the first 20 days since the delayed start of the monsoon stands at 26%. The deficit has narrowed down from 50% till the second week of the month after a brief spurt of good rains over the southern peninsula and parts of Maharashtra.\nThe deficit is highest in northwest India comprising fertile fields of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Punjab.

Their findings are published 10 October in Geophysical Research Letters.\n\"These findings are important because they show that long-term changes in hurricanes may be related to many different factors,\" says co-author Jonathan Foley, director of the university's Center for Sustainability and the Global Environment. \"While a great deal of work has focused on the links between [hurricanes] and warming ocean temperatures, this research adds another piece to the puzzle.\"\nResearchers have increasingly turned their attention to the environmental impact of dust, after it became clear that in some years, millions of tons of sand rise up from the Sahara Desert and float across the Atlantic Ocean, sometimes in as little as five days. If scientists conclusively prove that dust storms help to squelch hurricanes, weather forecasters could one day begin to track atmospheric dust, factoring it into their predictions for the first time, the researchers say.\n\"People didn't understand the potential impact of dust until satellites allowed us to see how incredibly expansive these dust storms can be,\" says Evan. \"Sometimes during the summer, sunsets in Puerto Rico are beautiful, because of all the dust in the sky--well that dust comes all the way from Africa.\"\nThe Sahara sand rises when hot desert air collides with the cooler, dryer air of the Sahel region, just south of the Sahara, and forms wind. As particles swirl upwards, strong trade winds begin to blow them westward into the northern Atlantic. Dust storms form primarily during summer and winter months, but in some years, for reasons that are not understood, they barely form at all.\nEvan decided to explore the correlations between dust and hurricane activity after his colleague and co-author Christopher Velden and others suggested that dust storms moving over the tropical North Atlantic might be able to suppress the development of hurricanes. The researchers say that this makes sense, because dry, dust-ridden layers of air probably help to \"dampen\" brewing hurricanes, which need heat and moisture to fuel them. That effect, Velden adds, could also mean that dust storms have the potential to shift a hurricane's direction further to the west, which means it would have a higher chance of hitting the United States and Caribbean islands.\nWhile the current research does not establish that dust storms directly influence hurricanes, it does provide compelling evidence that the two phenomena are linked in some way. \"What we don't know is whether the dust affects the hurricanes directly, or whether both [dust and hurricanes] are responding to the same large scale atmospheric changes around the tropical Atlantic,\" says Foley. \"That's what future research needs to find out.\"\nThe study was funded by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.\nHarvey Leifert | American Geophysical Union\nWater - as the underlying driver of the Earth’s carbon cycle\n17.01.2017 | Max-Planck-Institut für Biogeochemie\nModeling magma to find copper\n13.01.2017 | Université de Genève\nYersiniae cause severe intestinal infections.

The Observatory forecasts the weather and issues warnings on weather-related hazards. It also monitors and makes assessments on radiation levels in Hong Kong and provides other meteorological and geophysical services to meet the needs of the public and the shipping, aviation, industrial and engineering sectors.\nThe Observatory was established on 2 March 1883 as the Hong Kong Observatory by Sir George Bowen, the 9th Governor of Hong Kong, with William Doberck :皇家香港天文台) after obtaining a Royal Charter in 1912. The Observatory adopted the current name and emblem in 1997 after the transfer of Hong Kong's sovereignty from the UK to China.(1852–1941) as its first director. Early operations included meteorological and magnetic observations, a time service based on astronomical observations and a tropical cyclone warning service. The Observatory was renamed the Royal Observatory Hong Kong (Chinese\nThe Hong Kong Observatory was built in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon in 1883. Observatory Road in Tsim Sha Tsui is so named based on this landmark. However, due to rapid urbanisation, it is now surrounded by skyscrapers. As a result of high greenhouse gas emissions, the reflection of sunlight from buildings and the surfaces of roads, as well as the reduced vegetation, it suffers from a heat island effect. This was demonstrated by the considerable increase in average temperatures recorded by the Observatory between 1980 and 2005. In 2002, the Observatory opened a resource centre on the 23rd Floor of the nearby Miramar Tower, where the public can buy Hong Kong Observatory publications and access other meteorological information.\nThis building, built in 1883, is a rectangular two-storey plastered brick structure. It is characterised by arched windows and long verandas. It now houses the office of the directorate and serves as the centre of administration of the Observatory.The building is a declared monument of Hong Kong since 1984.\nThis building is next to the 1883 Building; the Centenary Building, used as The Hong Kong Observatory Headquarters, was erected in 1983 as a commemoration of the centennial service of the Observatory.\nOver the years, the observatory has been led by:\n|#||Name||Tenure Start||Tenure End||Length of Tenure||Notes|\n|1||Dr. William Doberck||2 March 1883||12 September 1907||24 years and 195 days|\n|2||Mr. Frederick George Figg||13 September 1907||13 June 1912||4 years and 275 days|\n|3||Mr. Thomas Folkes Claxton||14 June 1912||8 July 1932||20 years and 25 days|\n|4||Mr. Charles William Jeffries||9 July 1932||20 June 1941||8 years and 347 days|\n|5||Mr. Benjamin Davis Evans||21 June 1941||30 April 1946||4 years and 314 days|\n|6||Mr. Graham Scudamore Percival Heywood||1 May 1946||7 April 1956||9 years and 343 days|\n|7||Dr. Ian Edward Meni Watts||8 April 1956||23 August 1965||9 years and 138 days|\n|8||Mr. Gordon John Bell||24 August 1965||16 January 1981||15 years and 146 days|\n|9||Mr. John Edgar Peacock||17 January 1981||14 March 1984||3 years and 58 days|\n|10||Mr. Patrick Sham Pak||15 March 1984||25 May 1995||11 years and 72 days|\n|11||Mr. Robert Lau Chi-kwan||26 May 1995||21 December 1996||1 year and 210 days|\n|12||Dr. Lam Hung-kwan||22 December 1996||13 March 2003||6 years and 82 days|\n|13||Mr. Lam Chiu-ying||14 March 2003||10 May 2009||6 years and 58 days|\n|14||Dr. Lee Boon-ying||11 May 2009||13 April 2011||1 year and 338 days|\n|15||Mr. Shun Chi-ming||14 April 2011||14 February 2020||8 years and 307 days|\n|16||Dr. Cheng Cho-ming||15 February 2020||Incumbent||2 years, 161 days|\nFrom 1885 to 1948, the HKO used the coat of arms of the United Kingdom in various styles for its logo but in 1949, this was changed to a circular escutcheon featuring pictures of weather observation tools, with the year 1883 at the bottom and a St Edward's Crown at the top. In 1981, the logo was changed to the old coat of arms, and in 1997, with the transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong, the current logo was introduced to replace the colonial symbols.\nThe Friends of the Observatory, an interest group set up in 1996 to help the Observatory to promote Hong Kong Observatory and its services to the public, provide science extension activities in relation to the works of the Observatory and foster communication between the Observatory and the public, now has more than 7,000 individual and family members in total. Activities organised for the Friends of the Observatory include regular science lectures and visits to Observatory's facilities. Newsletters (named 談天說地) were also published for members once every four months. Voluntary docents from this interest group lead a \"HKO Guided Tour\" to let the public who applied for visit in advance to visit the headquarters of the Observatory, and learn about the history, environment and meteorological science applied by the Observatory.\nThe Observatory regularly organises visits for secondary school students. This outreach programme was extended to primary school students, the elderly and community groups in recent years. Talks are also organised in primary schools during the winter time, when officials are less busy in the severe climate issues and watchouts. A roving exhibition for the public was also mounted in shopping malls in 2003. To promote understanding of the services provided by the Observatory and their benefits to the community, over 50 press releases were issued and 7 media briefings were held in 2003. From time to time, the Observatory also works closely with schools for a series of events, including with the Geography Society of PLK Vicwood KT Chong Sixth Form College between 2008 and 2009.\nCentral is the central business district of Hong Kong. It is located in Central and Western District, on the north shore of Hong Kong Island, across Victoria Harbour from Tsim Sha Tsui, the southernmost point of Kowloon Peninsula. The area was the heart of Victoria City, although that name is rarely used today.\nThe Star Ferry is a passenger ferry service operator and tourist attraction in Hong Kong. Its principal routes carry passengers across Victoria Harbour, between Hong Kong Island, and Kowloon. The service is operated by the Star Ferry Company, which was founded in 1888 as the Kowloon Ferry Company, and adopted its present name in 1898.\nTsim Sha Tsui, often abbreviated as TST, is an urban area in southern Kowloon, Hong Kong. The area is administratively part of the Yau Tsim Mong District. Tsim Sha Tsui East is a piece of land reclaimed from the Hung Hom Bay now east of Tsim Sha Tsui. The area is bounded north by Austin Road and in the east by Hong Chong Road and Cheong Wan Road.\nTropical cyclone warnings and watches are alerts issued by national weather forecasting bodies to coastal areas threatened by the imminent approach of a tropical cyclone of tropical storm or hurricane intensity. They are notices to the local population and civil authorities to make appropriate preparation for the cyclone, including evacuation of vulnerable areas where necessary. It is important that interests throughout the area of an alert make preparations to protect life and property, and do not disregard it on the strength of the detailed forecast track.\nBlackhead Point, also known as Tai Pau Mai indigenously, or by the names Tsim Sha Tsui Point and Signal Hill (訊號山), was a cape before any land reclamation took place in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It currently remains a small hill near the coast.\nThe Hong Kong tropical cyclone warning signals, or informally typhoon signals, are a set of signals used to indicate the threat or effects of a tropical cyclone. The Hong Kong Observatory issues the warning signal if a tropical cyclone approaches within 800 kilometres of Hong Kong and poses a threat of deteriorating conditions in Hong Kong.\nObservatory Road is one of the oldest roads in Hong Kong, and has existed since 1883. It is called so because this is where the Hong Kong Observatory was constructed. The Observatory is still in operation and provides updated typhoon information and other services for the Northwest Pacific area.\nThe Clock Tower is a landmark in Hong Kong. It is located the southern shore of Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon. It is the only remnant of the original site of the former Kowloon station on the Kowloon–Canton Railway. Officially named Former Kowloon-Canton Railway Clock Tower, it is usually referred to as the Tsim Sha Tsui Clock Tower for its location.\nStar Ferry Pier, Tsim Sha Tsui, or Tsim Sha Tsui Ferry Pier, is a pier located on reclaimed land at the southernmost tip of Tsim Sha Tsui on Kowloon Peninsula in Hong Kong. It is commonly known as Star Ferry Pier (天星碼頭) in Tsim Sha Tsui. Star Ferry operates the pedestrian ferry service across Victoria Harbour to Wan Chai and to Central on Hong Kong Island. The location is identified as \"Kowloon Point\" in the franchise held by Star Ferry.\nTsim Sha Tsui Centre and Empire Centre (帝國中心) are two office buildings and shopping malls in East Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, Hong Kong. They are connected by a covered pedestrian bridge.\nThe 1937 Great Hong Kong Typhoon was an unnamed typhoon in Hong Kong on 2 September 1937. It was one of the deadliest typhoons in Hong Kong history killing 11,000 people. In Macau, 21 people died by this typhoon.\nSevere Tropical Storm Kammuri, known in the Philippines as Tropical Storm Julian, was a storm which made landfall on south China in August 2008, having a maximum wind speed of 50 kn (93 km/h). The name Kammuri was submitted to the World Meteorological Organisation's Typhoon Committee by Japan and is Japanese for the Corona Borealis constellation of stars.\nTyphoon Pabuk, known in the Philippines as Tropical Storm Chedeng, was a minimal typhoon that formed on August 5, 2007. The system made landfall on Taiwan on August 7, and on August 9 Pabuk passed to the south of Hong Kong.\nTropical Storm Higos, known in the Philippines as Tropical Storm Pablo, was a tropical storm during the 2008 Pacific typhoon season. The name \"Higos\" is the Chamorro word for fig.\nThe Meteorological and Geophysical Bureau is a department of the Macao Government. It provides weather forecasts and issues warnings on weather-related hazards. It also provides geophysical-related services to meet the needs of the public and the shipping, aviation, industrial and engineering sectors.\nTyphoon Vicente, known in the Philippines as Tropical Depression Ferdie, was the strongest tropical cyclone to strike the Chinese province of Guangdong since Hagupit in 2008, and was regarded as the strongest storm to affect Hong Kong and Macau in more than ten years. The eighth named storm and third typhoon in the 2012 Pacific typhoon season, Vicente began life as a tropical depression on July 18, 2012 north east of the Philippines. Vicente soon steadily moved into the South China Sea, and began to intensify above warm sea waters, and began explosive intensification early on July 23, and started to charge toward the Guangdong region prompting the Hong Kong Observatory (HKO) to issue the Hurricane Signal, No. 10, the first since York in 1999. The Macao Meteorological and Geophysical Bureau also hoisted the Signal No. 9 for the first time since York and after the transfer of sovereignty over Macau. Late on the same day, Vicente made landfall over Taishan in Guangdong, China.\nTyphoon Usagi, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Odette, was a violent tropical cyclone which affected Taiwan, the Philippines, China, and Hong Kong in September 2013. Usagi, or which means the constellation Lepus in Japanese, was the fourth typhoon and the nineteenth tropical storm in the basin. Developing into a tropical storm east of the Philippines late on September 16, Usagi began explosive intensification on September 19 and ultimately became a violent and large typhoon. Afterwards, the system weakened slowly, crossed the Bashi Channel on September 21, and made landfall over Guangdong, China on September 22.\nWeather Underground of Hong Kong is a non-profit website established in 1995 and directed by Mr. Fong Chi Kong Clarence.\nTyphoon Ruby, known in the Philippines as Typhoon Yoning, was a strong tropical cyclone that struck Hong Kong, Macau, and southern China in early September 1964. The precursor disturbance to Ruby was first identified on August 29 over the Philippine Sea, and this system organised into a tropical cyclone by September 1. Ruby intensified as it moved west, becoming a typhoon the next day and subsequently passing over the Babuyan Islands of the Philippines. After reaching the South China Sea, Ruby turned northwest and intensified further, attaining peak ten-minute sustained winds of 195 km/h (120 mph) before making landfall at the peak intensity near Hong Kong on September 5. The typhoon weakened after moving inland and dissipated on September 6 over southeastern China.\nTyphoon Dot was a strong tropical cyclone that made landfalls on Luzon and near Hong Kong in October 1964. It was the fifth typhoon to impact Hong Kong during the active 1964 Pacific typhoon season, and prompted the issuance of the No. 10 typhoon signal from the Royal Observatory in Hong Kong—the highest warning possible. The storm's precursor disturbance formed west of Pohnpei on October 3 and tracked towards the west, becoming a tropical storm by October 6. Gradually strengthening, Dot moved towards the west-northwest, northwest, and then curved west, leading to a landfall at typhoon intensity on Luzon on October 9. A freighter with 32 crewmembers went missing west of the island after passing through the typhoon and was never recovered.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Some cooling\nis anticipated over the weekend as a weak low pressure system\npasses north of the region. There are no signs of rainfall through\nearly next week.\nA strong upper ridge, centered just off the northern baja ca coast,\nhas been slowly building and shifting inland into the desert\nsouthwest; the recent 00z plots showed 594dm heights across southern\narizona. IR imagery at 2 am depicted clear skies area-wide. Model\nguidance has been very consistent that the ridge will continue to\nshift east and into arizona, and become centered over south-central\narizona by this evening with 500mb heights running around 594-595dm\nover southern arizona. Very little changes through Thursday as the\nridge remains centered over central arizona. The result of the\nstrong ridge directly overhead will be very hot conditions, with\nexcessive heat possible over portions of the lower deserts. At this\ntime we will continue the excessive heat warning for Thursday and\nFriday, although we do have slight reservations about just how hot\nit will actually get on those days.\nLatest efi (extreme forecast index)data for temperatures has most of\nthe CWA at less than the 90th percentile on Thursday and Friday, and\nthe naefs percentile data from the ensemble situational awareness\ntable is not overly impressive; although 500mb heights over\narizona far SE ca exceed the 97th percentile during the warning,\nvalues at 850mb only reach a bit above the 90th percentile. Forecast\nhigh temps for both days are well short of records - the forecasts\nof 110-111 compare to records of about 116 for those days. Also, all\nof the best performing temperature guidance from the latest model\nrun calls for highs to drop slightly with most of the hotter deserts\nrunning about 110-111 with a few peaks near 112. The result of the\nslightly cooler scenario is that heat risk guidance is not as\nimpressive and the areal coverage of high risk has been reduced a\nbit. For now though we will keep the warning as is and not remove\nany zones. Basically, forecaster confidence that we will see\nexcessive heat in all of the warned zones has gone down and is\nmoderate at best.\nOne final factor; on Friday the ridge starts to become suppressed\nand shifted a bit to the south as short wave energy starts to pass\nby to our north. 500mb heights over southern arizona trend slightly\ndownward, although it is possible that the boundary layer will\nremain unaffected by the cooling taking place aloft.\nOver the weekend, the aforementioned short wave drops to the\nsoutheast and skirts by to the north of the four corners, bringing a|\nbit of a cooling trend to the area. High temperatures fall below\nwarning criteria Saturday and actually drop a bit below seasonal\nnormals Sunday as the high for phoenix falls to just 104.\nFor the remainder of the forecast, next Monday through Wednesday,\nguidance calls for the ridge to rebuild back across the desert\nsouthwest with 500mb heights again climbing into the 594dm ballpark.\nAs such we can expect another typical june warming trend with hotter\ndeserts approaching and maybe exceeding the 110 degree mark by next\nSouth-central arizona including kphx, kiwa, and ksdl and southeast\ncalifornia southwest arizona including kipl and kblh:\nno aviation weather concerns are anticipated through at least\nThursday morning.

Another warming trend is expected early\nnext week as high pressure builds across the desert southwest.\nMinimum afternoon humidity values will fall into the single digits on\nFriday, then into the 10-20% range over the weekend and into early\nnext week. Overnight recoveries will be poor to fair. Occasionally\ngusty winds can be expected Saturday ahead of a weak area of low\npressure passing by to the north, but otherwise typical afternoon\nupslope gustiness will be common during the period.

Culin said all the reporting cites in that coverage area broke daily low temperature records Tuesday morning, but the frigid temperatures didn’t break records for the month of January.\nThe lowest temperature reported was 4 degrees in Eupora.\nCulin says there was a report of a broken water tower in Flowood and broken water lines in places, but she hasn’t heard of any major weather problems.\nGreg Flynn, spokesman for the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency, says no major problems have been reported to MEMA.\nIn Biloxi, freezing temperatures caused a sensor at a city water well to malfunction this morning, which led to little or no water pressure at several high-rise hotels in east Biloxi this morning.\nThe drop in pressure was first reported at 6:30 a.m., and Public Works crews had all water pressure restored within a couple of hours.\nTypically, water well sensors activate the wells when water levels drop in the city’s network of elevated storage tanks. This morning, a sensor at a well supplying a water tower off Oak Street in east Biloxi malfunctioned causing the loss in pressure.\n“The real issue was for the high rise hotels,” said Biloxi City Engineer Damon Torricelli. “Their booster pumps that help maintain pressure to their upper floors shut down when our water pressure dropped.”\nExacerbating the issue, Torricelli said, is that as part of post-Katrina rebuilding, the electronics controlling the wells are elevated to avoid future storm damage. “While this protects them from water, it exposes them to the wind and makes them more susceptible to freezing temperatures.”\nTorricelli said the equipment installers and manufacturers are being consulted to avoid future issues.\nSaid Torricelli: “We certainly apologize for this inconvenience, and we’re taking steps to make sure it doesn’t happen again.”\nMississippi Press Staff Writer Warren Kulo contributed to this report.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In southeastern Michigan during the peak of the storms, nearly 150,000 DTE Energy customers were without power.\nMany reports of downed trees, hail and strong gusting winds were pouring into the National Weather Service’s offices in southern Michigan Friday. In Troy, a city located on the outskirts of Detroit, public work crews were prioritizing storm damage removal Saturday morning as there was widespread damage done by the severe weather. The first problems that were handled were fully blocked roadways as there were many roads completely inaccessible due to entire trees laying on them.\nThe severe weather collapsed a wall at Ursuline College in Pepper Pike, Ohio and caused flooding throughout Lake County. The storms ripped down a huge wall at the gym at Ursuline College, causing extensive damage and prompting officials to close the campus at least through Monday. Several roadways in the city of Mentor, Ohio were closed down due to flash flooding. Many of Mentor’s residential streets were flooded and closed to traffic. Officials in that city urged residents not to travel on city streets and told those who have to travel to do so using extreme caution.\nIn addition to numerous trees being knocked down all across southern lower Michigan, in that state’s upper peninsula, there also were many reports of downed trees and power poles. In L’Anse, strong gusting winds blew a roof off a barn and downed numerous power poles and lines that resulted in thousands of people being left without power there. The wind gusts in the upper peninsula were clocked at just over 60 miles per hour early Saturday morning which resulted in many homeowners having to spend their Saturday cleaning up tree limbs from yards.\nPeople living in the Midwest are being told by the National Weather Service to expect more severe weather this week. There are more thunderstorms being forecast for the new week that may bring with them heavy downpours of rain to result in flash flooding. Embedded in the trough of moist warm air that’s taking over the eastern third of the country will be pulses of energy that will help spark showers and thunderstorms Monday through Wednesday in the Great Lakes, Mississippi Valley, Ohio Valley and the Northeast.\nThe Importance Of Cleaning Equipment After A Fire\nMany individuals don’t realize the severity of the damage that a fire can cause. Sometimes, you will be lucky enough to catch a fire related problem before it damages most of your cost worthy items. Most of the time, you wont be able to salvage much. IN the event that you do have intense fire damage, not all has to be considered lost. From burnt and corrupted files on a computer, let alone the computer itself, to beautiful furniture and generations of passed down family heirlooms and sometimes you are lucky enough to save them. The clean up is devastating and can take months to finalize. While it is important to clean and take care of what has mattered most to you, make sure you pay close attention to the equipment in your home and garage as well.\nYou should know that there are many different important considerations when caring for the clean up of your equipment. Your equipment can and will range from electronics such as televisions, computers, VCR’s and DVD players, phone related objects and power tools that would be in your garage. Your tool box and other automobile equipment that might be of use to you as well. When you experience the casualty of a fire, make sure call your homeowners insurance company and document the remains. They will usually initiate a claim based on the damage. When it is safe to go back into the house (safe from hazardous smoke, debris, etc;), be sure to take a video and/or pictures of the aftermath. If you are worried about the smoke damaging the hard drive of your computer, most of the time the smoke will not ruin anything. 90% of electronics hardly takes smoke damage when there is a house fire.\nWhen carpets, draperies, upholstered furniture and clothing are found after a fire, they can usually be refurnished, with the exception of scorched or severely water damaged items. A professional fire restorer can clean the soot and what is left of the damage after the fire is through and you have gathered your detailed documentation. They usually have the best equipment to take care of your items, in an efficient amount of time. If you decide to clean the equipment yourself, remember how important it is to keep safety your number one priority. While taking extra consideration in cleaning your equipment is very important, you must let all of the areas that have been engulfed in flames, cool down, making sure that all of the cleaning supplies that you are using are not fire hazardous or will not spark when hitting open vapors. Opening windows or even remaining outside while you clean your equipment is the safest. It is highly recommended to cleaning equipment such as lawn and yard mowers than may have been effect along with desks, chairs and tables that may be salvaged. Stoves, kitchen appliances and laundry units are important to clean right away because of the electrical outlets that take the most damage and should be dealt with first.\nEarly Tuesday morning the National Weather Service said that cold air coming down from Canada is mixing with warm moist air coming up from the south to make conditions very favorable for thunderstorms. These storms moving into the Midwest could produce very heavy down pourings of rain, large damaging hail the size of golf balls and could even trigger flash flooding.\nWho in the Midwest is at threat for severe weather? The NWS says that the areas sure to see bad weather today through Wednesday morning are those people living in an area that stretches across an area covering the eastern half of Iowa, all of Minnesota, most of Wisconsin, the northern half of Indiana, Illinois & Ohio and most of Michigan’s lower peninsula.\nThe National Weather Service issued a statement Tuesday morning that said that low pressure over the Plains and Midwest is leading to the formation of thunderstorms. These storms are expected to grow into a line that will move into Michigan’s lower peninsula Tuesday night and that they could trigger very heavy rainfall that could lead to flash flooding. Areas most prone for flash flooding are those along streams and rivers and those in low-lying spots.\nThe Service is also telling state officials in northern Indiana, northeastern Ohio and southern lower Michigan that tornado spotters may need to be activated Tuesday and especially during the evening hours as conditions in those areas will be right for the formation of twisters.\nIn all, about 36 million people in the Plains and Midwest are at risk for severe weather through Tuesday night. A few of the major metro areas which could see damaging winds and large hail include Chicago, Madison, Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Cedar Rapids and Detroit. The severe weather that’s moving across the nation could cause real headaches for rush hour commuters as there could very well be traffic delays due to flash flooding and other weather related problems such as large hail and blinding down pourings of rain.\nIn the Corn Belt area of the nation that stretches from northern Missouri to Michigan, the rain associated with this weather pattern will be welcomed by farmers growing corn and soybeans. However, if very heavy rain falls for several hours in a row, crops could be negatively affected as too much water is never a good thing from a farmer’s standpoint. Forecasters across the Midwest are reminding people that they should always take stock of the weather and be very careful when traveling when there is a threat of flash flooding. Places to be very careful around include low-water passageways, viaducts, small streams and culverts as these are the first to go if a flash flooding even occurs.\nThe massive blizzard hitting the heartland of the United States has been called “truly historic” by the National Weather Service. Once again, people living in the middle of the country and as far south as the panhandle of Texas are dealing with heavy blowing snow and slippery driving conditions. The storm has been blamed for two deaths in the United States thus far. One death occurred when a man lost control of his vehicle on an icy roadway in Kansas and the second was due to a roof collapsing on a person in Kansas.\nEarly Monday, blizzard warnings were in effect from Oklahoma into Texas and southern Kansas. Most of those warnings did expire Monday evening. The areas being hit by the massive snowstorm are already under significant snowpack from last week’s snowstorm.\nSeveral drivers in Texas had to be rescued from their vehicles Monday when they became stranded on a major interstate. In Amarillo, 19 inches of snow fell which is just short of the record 19.4 which fell in that city several years ago in the same period of time. The snow was being blown by hurricane-force winds in Texas that reached speeds of well over 70 miles per hour at times, making driving extremely dangerous and nearly impossible.\nThe National Weather Service is warning people that the storm will continue to cause a variety of hazards Tuesday as it treks across the country, heading for the Midwest. In addition to slippery roads, the heavy snow also can cause homeowners grief as it can result in ice dams on roofs. If not dealt with, an ice dam on a home can damage roofing material as it slowly melts, allowing the water makes its way into the attic. There are also flooding concerns in the Midwest as the temperatures will be above freezing during Tuesday’s storm. Homes and businesses located in low-lying areas are the most vulnerable as are those who do not have proper drainage around the foundations.\nThe snowy mess that has occurred in the Plains states and which is heading into the Great Lakes region is putting a lot of stress on road crews. Many states in the line of this week’s storm are still digging out from the snow that fell last week. While it’s been a rather tame winter thus far in many regions of the country, February is shaping up to be a month that many soon won’t forget as three major winter storms has struck thus far this month.\nAs arctic air blows in some of the coldest air seen in over four years, homeowners all across the midwest are bracing themselves for what could be a serious disaster. Plumbing is designed to be functional at a certain temperature, but it is getting to be far below that temperature in the next few days.\nThese record low temperatures are serious. In some areas of the midwest, highs are not going to be above zero degrees, which means the incredibly cold temperatures penetrate deep into the ground. This creates a huge problem when it comes to buried plumbing, as if the plumbing is not deep enough, the water in the pipes will freeze.\nHomeowners are bracing themselves for such a thing, because frozen pipes means much more than not being able to get water during that time. The problem is in the chemistry. As water freezes, the molecules are farther apart, which means that it expands significantly as it turns into ice. This puts terrible strain on the pipes and can, in many cases, cause burst pipes. If this happens outdoors the problem is awful, as it means water leaks everywhere and saturates the ground as soon as it defrosts. However, if it happens indoors it is even worse.\nThe burst pipes indoors can cause severe flooding, which can be responsible for a large amount of property damage. The flooding is very serious, and the extreme cold temperatures can delay any sort of response as well. That means that such extreme cold temperatures can prove very costly to homeowners in any area. Many homes in the midwest have plumbing that is sufficiently insulated to withstand such temperatures, but some homes, especially those with older cast iron plumbing systems are not.\nSome home insurance policies cover damage caused by freezes such as this one, however it is important to check for specifics in each individual policy before assuming anything. As the temperatures drop significantly, pipes are going to be bursting in many areas, including public buildings. Response times may be delayed simply due to the weather or because the emergency responders and plumbers are swamped with other reports of burst pipes. There is also not much to do about frozen pipes until the temperature raises back up. One thing to consider would be finding some form of insulation for pipes, as that can increase the temperature tolerance of any given pipes and lower the freezing point, perhaps even far enough that this cold spell will not cause problems.\nWith as serious a drop in temperatures as is coming to the midwest, homeowners are going to need to be cautious and patient. Households are advised to keep enough drinking water to last several days or even a week on hand, in case plumbing freezes or bursts during the cold snap.\nChristmas Day Storms Wreak Havoc on US\nThe 2012 holidays are going to go down in history as being a very stormy time in the US as severe weather has prevailed in many parts of the country. At least 30 tornadoes struck across the South, blizzard conditions were reported in several states in the middle of the country and the Midwest is bracing for snowstorms the day following Christmas. Heavy snows, ice and sleet are expected to make travel very difficult for people trying to get home after the holiday in Indiana, Michigan and Ohio where up to 10 inches of precipitation is being forecast.\nThe National Weather Service is urging people to either stay out of the weather altogether in the Midwest or to postpone their travel plans for at least a day. It is warning that heavy ice accumulations can cause tree limbs and powerlines to fall, which could take out power for many. Tornadoes touched down on Christmas day in four states: Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas destroying scores of homes and leaving tens of thousands without power. The big storm system also caused winter weather conditions in Oklahoma where a multiple car pileup occurred on an Interstate, injuring several.\nThe biggest tornado reported struck Mobile, Alabama Christmas day. The twister which struck at about 5pm, touched down a total of five times just outside the downtown area. Several businesses and homes were damaged and power was knocked out to over 20,000 people. A Mobile high school sustained serious damage from the twister as did a church. Meanwhile, blizzard conditions hit the midsection of the country causing vehicular accidents in many areas as well as downed trees and powerlines due to high winds. Hundreds of flights in the US were canceled by evening on Christmas due to snow, wind, ice and sleet.\nThe National Weather Service has Winter Weather Advisories in effect for the Midwest on Wednesday as they severe weather is forecast to move into the region. Some areas in southwest Pennsylvania could get a foot of snow while other areas are expected to get anywhere from 5 to 8 inches. Freezing rain may also fall across the Midwest where temperatures will be hovering right around the freezing mark.\nA powerful storm blasted its way into New York and New Jersey Wednesday, bringing with it high winds, rain and heavy wet snow. Many homes were plunged back into darkness, commuter trains were stopped and another round of misery was inflicted upon thousands of residents who have been in the process of trying to recover from superstorm Sandy’s horrendous blow more than a week ago.\nThe new storm, a nor’easter, is not a big concern under normal circumstances but because of Sandy, many trees are vulnerable as is the electrical system. And, scores of storm victims have spent the last week shoveling mud and pumping water out of their homes and businesses only to possibly have to repeat it again. There are many people still without power whom have been trying to deal with the shivering cold temperatures, making this new storm all that more unwelcome.\nAs the new system drew closer, thousands of people living in low-lying areas were told to get out of their neighborhoods. Work crews in New Jersey were busy building up sand dunes ahead of the new storm so that they could protect the ravaged coastline there. In New York City, police officers headed into neighborhoods with loudspeakers, telling residents to evacuate ahead of the storm. While it was not mandatory that people leave, many said they would refuse to abandon their homes if ordered to because they fear looting – something that has been taking place all across the storm-ravaged city.\nAll construction in the Big Apple was put on hold Wednesday as a safety precaution. The decision to halt construction was partially brought on by the gigantic crane that broke during Sandy and which was left dangling precariously over the streets of Manhattan.\nAt least 1,2000 flights coming into and leaving the New York metro area were canceled ahead of the storm, causing even more travel chaos.The storm dumped 4 inches of wet, heavy snow on New York by Wednesday night. Some regions such as areas in Connecticut, upstate New York and New Jersey received over 7 inches of snow with more promised to come.\nThe good news is that there is relief on the way for the millions of weary residents of the East. The unwelcomed rain, ice, snow and high winds are slowing moving out of the region and temperatures are being forecast to climb back up to tolerable levels for those without power as the highs for the next couple of days will hover in the 50s.\nA very active weather pattern took shape in the center of the US at the end of last weekend. That weather pattern has set the stage to bring significant rainfall and thunderstorms to areas of the Ohio and Tennessee Valley Thursday and Friday. The greater part of the central portion of the country was wet and windy Wednesday with periods of heavy rainfall and thunderstorms. The unstable weather system moving across the country’s midsection is meeting a cold front as it pushes northeast to increase the risk of severe thunderstorm activity for the Midwest.\nSome portions of the Ohio and Tennessee Valleys could see isolated large hail, damaging winds and even a few tornado outbreaks Thursday and Friday. Steady rain put an end to the ALCS playoff game in Detroit Wednesday afternoon. The game was rescheduled for Thursday but forecasters are saying that the Motor City may be in for more steady rain to further push back Game 4.\nThe weather system that is moving into the Central and Midwest states is delivering a shot of chilly air which will be somewhat of a shock for some areas that have seen highs in the 70s and 80s. Temperatures will be around 30 degrees cooler in some areas Thursday and Friday compared to earlier in the week. Conditions can be downright miserable from the eastern Dakotas into the northern portion of Iowa with strong winds, cold temperatures and periods of heavy rainfall. To make things even worse, the cold temperatures, rain and high winds moving eastward into the Great Lakes could be accompanied by a combination of hail and snow.\nWind gusts nearing hurricane strength hit the Plains earlier this week. That storm system is spreading blustery, chilly conditions into the Ohio Valley. Some areas in Ohio and Michigan could see winds gusting as high as 60 miles per hour Thursday along with steady rain to make being outdoors very unpleasant to say the least. Winds of that strength can easily take down tree limbs and cause power outages. Some of the crosswinds could cause airport delays as well.\nRain is desperately needed by farmers but it will not be enough to make a dent in the overall drought conditions heading into winter. What the rain will do instead is slow down harvesting of soybeans and corn. On the bright side, the temperatures will not dip below freezing so farmers will have time to work the fields before real winter weather sets in.\nWinter will be here soon! If you are smart you will begin the winterizing process sooner rather than later. By making sure that your home is ready for winter you can be sure that your house and it’s contents are safe. Winterizing is a great way to save on your energy bill. With the economy and rising fuel prices we need to save any way we can. Your family will stay comfortable without having your heater work overtime.\nRight before the temperatures start to get below freezing is a great time to start the winterizing process. If you start then you will have ample time to get your house sealed up without having it freeze over.\nThere are many areas that you need to think about sealing up. Depending on what type of home you have there may be more or less. You can get most of these jobs done yourself. If you are having doubts about being able to do it yourself then contact a professional.\nNow let’s go over the main areas you need to worry about getting ready for winter.\nThe first is the plumbing. There are a couple situations where winterizing your plumbing is essential. If you won’t be living in your house during winter, and if your home does not have a strong heater. You will need to drain out all the hot water from your water tank once you turn off the power. You’ll also need to make sure that all your water pipes are drained. That’s goes for both the cold and hot water. At the lowest point on the lines you should be able to drain the pipes. Finally you need to add antifreeze that won’t hurt the environment to your sewer and water pipes.\nThe next thing you need to winterize is your fireplace. You will want to make sure that they are well cleaned and then seal them from top to bottom. Using a sheet of plastic is a great choice.\nYour doors and windows also need to be looked at. The edges of all your windows and doors need to have weather stripping added. Also you need to make sure the bottom of your doors are sealed with a door sweep. Any cracks you see also need to be sealed. Even the small ones!\nYour roof is another spot that needs to be looked at. Depending on your health you might want to call in a professional on this one. Any broken or missing tiles or shingles will need to get replaced. Any other damage that may be present like small holes will need to get fixed as well.\nMake sure that your gutters are clean too. Gutters that are filled with twigs and leaves could cause water to leak into your home. Additionally, check that all your gutter spikes are well fastened. Make sure that your downspouts are draining correctly.\nThose are most of the key areas you need to check to get your home ready for winter.

Sometime later this month, it will break up during re-entry into the atmosphere, large chunks of debris crashing — hopefully — into the ocean, which makes up over 75 per cent of Earth’s surface, or some uninhabited landmass. Normally, when a dead satellite re-enters the atmosphere, engineers have some control over its trajectory. In this case, the descent will be uncontrolled, and an added worry is hydrazine — a highly toxic rocket fuel aboard the satellite.\nA satellite falls from orbit when its velocity decreases and the planet’s gravity pulls it down. As it slips deeper into the atmosphere, it compresses the air, which becomes so hot that it causes the satellite to burn up. The troposphere is the first layer above Earth’s surface, containing half of the atmosphere. Weather occurs here. Atop this is the stable stratosphere (and the ozone layer) where jet aircraft fly. The mesosphere — where meteors burn up — is next, and then the lower thermosphere, where auroras glow. Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites and spacecraft like the Space Shuttle orbit in the upper thermosphere. <b1>\nAlthough the thermosphere is vacuum-thin, it is still dense enough to sap orbital energy from LEO satellites through aerodynamic drag. This ‘orbit decay’ forces satellites to drop nearly half a mile every year. The International Space Station, for instance, requires periodic re-boosts. The most famous example of orbit decay was Skylab, which burned up in the atmosphere in July 1979: the largest uncontrolled re-entry so far. Debris from the 78-tonne space station fell harmlessly into the Indian Ocean, and across a remote region of western Australia.\nThe gentle pressure of the ‘solar wind’ also causes orbit decay. Every 11 years, the sunspot cycle nears maximum and ultraviolet radiation heats the thermosphere that swells out into space. Much like a roti puffing up when held over a fire. This increases drag on LEO satellites and causes orbit decay. This has an upside, though. Space junk that orbit Earth far outnumber useful satellites. So atmospheric drag on them helps clean up the LEO litter in the planet’s backyard!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

I'm looking forward to an extended streak of 80s and sunshine. It's coming. I think. Not this weekend, mind you. We'll have to be content with 70s Friday and Saturday with a ration of sunshine both days. Sunday may be showery but some clearing is likely Memorial Day with highs holding in the 60s. Not exactly lake-worthy, but we've seen worse.\nMonday was salve for the soul - yes, we all needed that. Today will be partly-bleak with showery rains and temperatures stuck in the 50s, but don't despair. We warm up later in the week with a few days in the 70s. Not exactly strip-down-to-your-swimsuit weather, but mild enough for most outdoor plans, especially Friday and Saturday. A real warm front (80s) may show up within a couple of weeks. Summer can arrive anytime now...\nWell that sure was fun. Fun as a 5-alarm fire, a salad of poison ivy - maybe a tick in your ice-cream sundae? Sorry for those visuals, but the people I bumped into this weekend were NOT AMUSED. But here's the thing. The weather just is. The sky above your head was set in motion by forces beyond our control - beyond our comprehension. We just get in the way...\nWell that was fun. A true monsoon rain - typical for October or March, but rare in May, when convection (showers and T-storms) should be the norm. Then again it didn't snow - things can always be worse. A shower or sprinkle is possible today, but no more heavy/soaking rains for awhile. We warm up later in the week - 70s possible by late week, closer to where we should be right now.\nIt's a little early to panic, but I'm starting to wonder (out loud) if Minnesota will experience a coolish, super-soggy summer. We've been in a blocking (holding) pattern which may break down in the coming weeks. Plenty of sweaty days ahead, in theory. But not this weekend. Today will be perfectly normal, for late March. Have a Plan B. Better weather returns next week; milder and drier.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Pictured, England captain Harry Kane skips past a challenge from the USA’s Tyler Adams at Al Bayt Stadium on Friday, November 25, 2022\nTuesday (November 29)\n5.58°F (3.1°C) hotter than normal – made twice as likely by climate change\nMonday (November 28)\n6.12°F (3.4°C) hotter than normal – made twice as likely by climate change\nSunday (November 27)\n5.94°F (3.3°C) hotter than normal – made three times as likely by climate change\nSaturday (November 26)\n4.86°F (2.7°C) hotter than normal – made twice as likely by climate change\nFriday (November 25)\n3.42°F (1.9°C) hotter than normal – made twice as likely by climate change\nFans have already been sweltering in Qatar’s high temperatures over the past week, which have pushed past 86°F (30°C).\nFortunately, when inside the World Cup stadiums, fans and players are being kept cool by specially-fitted technology that circulates cold air – although this was turned off for England’s match against the USA, leaving players sweltering.\nIn extreme temperatures, athletes are at risk of suffering from heat-stress disorders such as heat cramps, heat exhaustion or heat strokes.\n‘The stress of competing in extreme heat is already affecting more athletes around the world,’ said Dr Andrew Pershing, director of climate science at Climate Central.\n‘Climate change is making outdoor sports riskier for both pros and the rest of us.\n‘It will keep getting even riskier, until net greenhouse gas emissions are halted and global temperatures stop rising.’\nThe research was based on results from the Climate Shift Index, a free and publicly-available tool on Climate Central’s website that shows how much global warming influenced a certain day’s weather around the world.\nIt compares how often a given temperature will occur in our current climate with the frequency of that temperature occurring in a climate without global warming.\nAccording to the index, temperatures in the whole of Qatar on Friday, November 25 (the day of England’s last match) were 3.42°F (1.9°C) hotter than normal – an increase made twice as likely by climate change\nThe Climate Shift Index\nThe Climate Shift Index reveals how much climate change influences the temperature on a particular day.\nThe index ranges from -5 to +5 with positive levels indicating temperatures that are becoming more likely due to climate change (negative scores indicate conditions that are becoming less likely).\nFor levels at 2 or above, the Index is a multiple of how frequently a particular temperature will occur due to climate change.\nFor example, a Climate Shift Index of level 5 means that that a temperature is occurring five times more frequently.\nThis would be very difficult to encounter in a world without climate change – not necessarily impossible, just highly unlikely.\nThe index ranges from -5 to +5, with positive levels indicating temperatures that are becoming more likely due to climate change and negative levels indicating temperatures that are becoming less likely.\nFor example, a Climate Shift Index level of +3 means the day’s average temperature was made at least three times more likely than it would have been without the influence of human-caused climate change.\nThis has been combined with a measure of how much hotter than normal a part of the world is on a given day, measured in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius.\nSo, according to the index, temperatures in the whole of Qatar on Friday, November 25 (the day of England’s most recent match) were 3.42°F (1.9°C) hotter than normal – an increase made twice as likely by climate change.\nMeanwhile, temperatures in Qatar today (November 29) are 5.5°F (3.1°C) hotter than normal – two more times likely because of climate change.\nOn some recent days, including Sunday (November 27), higher than average temperatures were made three times more likely due to climate change, in an area spanning Qatar’s northeast.\nThis area covers capital city Doha and Al Khor, a city in the country’s north – both of which are home to World Cup stadiums.\nMatches played in stadiums within this area on Sunday included Spain versus Germany and Belgium versus Morocco.\nOn some days, including Sunday (November 27), higher than average temperatures were made three times more likely due to climate change in an area of Qatar (red shaded area on the north-east tip of Qatar)\nThis evening’s match against England and Wales will be played at the Ahmad bin Ali Stadium in the city of Al Rayyan, which is just to the east of capital Doha.\nClimate Central also ranked World Cup nations’ capital cities based on how much they are impacted by climate change.\nMexico City was the ‘World Cup winner’ in this regard, ahead of runner-up Tehran (the capital of Iran), Accra (the capital of Ghana) and Brasília (the capital of Brazil).\nFootball fans will remember the controversy when FIFA moved the date of the 2022 World Cup back an extra six months due to the heat threat.\nIt meant the World Cup would for the first time be played during winter rather than summer, due to the ‘potential health risk’ to players.\nClimate Central also ranked World Cup nations’ capital cities based on how much they are impacted by climate change\nEven though it’s winter in Qatar, average temperatures hit 78°F (26°C) in November and 70°F (21°C) in December.\nQatar therefore invested in cooling technology to bring the temperatures down and prevent potential heatstroke for players, officials and spectators.\nUsing solar-powered energy, outside air is cooled and then distributed through grills in the stands and large pitch-side nozzles.\nThe technology is now fitted in seven of eight Qatar 2022 stadiums, with the only exception Stadium 974 in Doha, which is fully-demountable and features natural ventilation due to its location near the sea.\nMAILONLINE REVEALS THE NEW TECHNOLOGIES POWERING THE FIFA WORLD CUP IN QATAR\nFootball fans now have only a few more days of waiting to endure before the men’s FIFA World Cup finally commences in Qatar.\nAfter an agonising four-and-a-half-year gap since the last tournament, the host nation will kick off Qatar 2022 on Sunday against Ecuador in Al Khor.\nEngland, meanwhile, play their fist match against Iran the following day, as Gareth Southgate’s men seek to finally bring it home after 56 years of hurt at the World Cup final on December 18.\nThis year, players and fans alike will see a host of new technologies that have never been seen at a FIFA World Cup.\nTechnologies at the FIFA World Cup this year include AI-powered limb-tracking, an official ball embedded with a sensor, sensory viewing rooms and a demountable stadium inspired by Lego\nHere’s a look at the innovations at Qatar 2022, from

In 2005, a storm surge from Hurricane Katrina submerged the island, severely widening the breach between the islands, shown in the bottom photo, above.\nShip Island is a barrier island off the coast of Mississippi, located in the Gulf of Mexico. Powerful Category 5 Hurricane Camille split the island permanently into two pieces after it slammed the Gulf Coast in 1969. Though it isn’t inhabited by people like the other four islands on this list, Ship Island is home to Fort Massachusetts. Construction began on the fort in 1859, but wasn’t completed until after the Civil War, when the island was being used as a prison for Confederate prisoners of war.\nHurricanes Submerge Island Multiple Times\nAfter Camille’s wrath cut the island in half, the western island became a haven for tourists looking to experience the history of Fort Massachusetts, while the eastern island became known for vegetation and wildlife. It has been a target for several hurricanes since Camille, and East Ship Island has been nearly submerged multiple times.\nCamille formed in the northwest Caribbean on August 14 and rapidly became a Category 3 hurricane as it reached western Cuba a day later. As the hurricane moved across the central Gulf of Mexico it became a powerful Category 5 and maintained this intensity until landfall along the Mississippi coast. Camille is only one of three Category 5 hurricanes on record that have made landfall in the United States.\nAccording to the National Hurricane Center report, wind gusts were estimated to be as high as 190 mph near Bay St. Louis, Miss. Tides ran 15 to 32 feet above normal just east of where Camille’s center made landfall.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Then it rains very heavily. Rashes of lightning are seen. Thunders begin to peal loudly. The wind begins to blow furiously. There is a roaring noise. The wind continues to blow for some hours. Sometimes it continues for a couple of days together.\nThe effect of the blowing of a cyclone is terrible as big trees fall down. House are blown away. It results in damage to life and property. The water of rivers rises as there are huge waves in them. Many boats are drowned. Everywhere dead bodies of men and beasts can be seen. Crops are destroyed. People suffer much.

But December nights are cold, and people don’t want to freeze their rears off,” he added.\nThe Perseid meteors will appear to originate in the northeastern sky, near the constellation Perseus, and to shoot off in all directions, according to Brian Skiff, an astronomer at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff.\n“Since the radiant point is close to Perseus, it is common to see them streaking right along the Milky Way, even as far away as Sagittarius,” he said.\n“After midnight, Perseus will have risen higher in the sky, and the meteors can be seen in just about any direction,” he added.\nMore from India\nMore from World\nMore from Sports\nMore from Entertaiment\n- Trouble mounts for Salman Khan as driver reiterates that actor killed blackbuck\n- PM Modi to chair NITI aayog meeting today\n- Narsingh Yadav dope scandal: NADA set to announce verdict today\n- Protests in Kashmir were fuelled by LeT: Hafiz Saeed\n- Cabinet approves changes to GST Bill, drops 1% additional tax\n- Fed leaves rates unchanged but says US economy improving\n- French church attackers pledged allegiance to ISIS in video\n- Stick to my statement that Salman Khan killed Chinkara, says 'missing' driver\n- Eye on China?

Health Protection Scotland, the Health Protection Agency and the Met Office will continue to monitor the situation and issue further advice or updates as necessary.\n\"Low concentrations of volcanic dust, which may contain low levels of sulphur dioxide, are also expected to ground with the plume, though this is not expected to be a significant threat to public health.\"\nDr Colin Ramsay, a consultant epidemiologist with the agency, said: \"Based on the evidence we have at the moment and the assessments that have been carried out, we feel that the level of risk, if there is any at all, is likely to be extremely low.\n\"However, a stronger warning was issued by the World Health Organisation (WHO), which urged people with lung conditions to stay indoors if the volcanic ash starts to settle.\n• The Scotsman's Mark Smith is among Britons marooned by the ash plume\nChris Epstein, a WHO spokesman, said: \"From what we know at the moment, the majority of cloud ash is seven to 10km up in the atmosphere. Air quality monitoring networks have not yet reported particulate on the ground but, if it does reach the ground, it may have health effects.\n\"People with respiratory conditions should avoid breathing in these particles. They should have their inhalers and other medication with them.\"\nMr Epstein said particles measuring less than ten microns have the potential to reach lower airways and cause problems in some people. Therefore, those with lung conditions should stay indoors if the ash starts to settle.\nHe stressed the advice did not mean everyone should go indoors and disrupt their routines.\nProfessor Malcolm Green, a spokesman for the British Lung Foundation, backed others' health advice.\nFirst Minister Alex Salmond said: \"In terms of public health, an initial analysis by Sepa of dust samples recovered from Shetland has identified no harmful material.\"\nLee Winsor, a spokeswoman for Sepa, explained that, in addition to the small sample of tiny particles found on Shetland, scientists were analysing a sample of suspected volcanic ash taken by a Sepa scientist from the roof of a car in Aberdeen.\nShe said: \"Sepa has completed preliminary analysis on two dust samples collected in Aberdeen and Lerwick. \"Preliminary microscopic analysis has shown that the properties of the particles appear to be consistent with the properties of volcanic ash, but further, more detailed analysis is required and is currently being undertaken. We have not detected any harmful material so far, but we need to do further analysis.\n\"Monitoring of the situation is ongoing, but the current available evidence suggests that there is a minimal risk to human health and the wider environment.\"\nThe Met Office said yesterday that it had received reports of ash deposits from the Icelandic volcano being found as far south as Cardington in Bedfordshire and in Exeter in Devon.\n• Icelandic eruptions could last for a year and 'second volcano could follow'","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The storm was triggered by a solar coronal mass ejection associated with the giant sunspot group cataloged as active region number 9393.

In the wide-angle time exposure, a towering red aurora is visible suspended above the foreground of a well lit lumber yard, train station, church steeple and buildings of the city of Dunedin. On April 2, the largest solar flare of the last 25 years also erupted near active region 9393, but because of its position near the Sun's edge the effects were largely directed away from our fair planet.

This number could increase as the days go by and more clean up efforts are being executed after this devastating storm.\nWhat is a typhoon? A typhoon is a mature tropical cyclone that develops in the western part of the Pacific Ocean between 180° and 100°E. The majority of storms form between June and November whilst tropical cyclone formation is at a minimum between December and May. On average, the northwestern Pacific features the most numerous and intense tropical cyclones globally. Like other basins, they are steered by the subtropical ridge towards the west or northwest, with some systems recurving near and east of Japan. The Philippines receive a brunt of the landfalls, with China and Japan being impacted slightly less. Some of the deadliest typhoons in history have struck China. Southern China has the longest record of typhoon impacts for the region, with a thousand year sample via documents within their archives. Taiwan has received the wettest known typhoon on record for the northwest Pacific tropical cyclone basin. (Wikipedia)\nTyphoon Haiyan has already killed over a thousand people with many more thousands displaced, waiting for aid and searching for food and water just to stay alive and survive. Many people in the Philippines have lost parents, children, spouses, relatives and friends during this massive disaster that hit the northwest Pacific basin.

Dannel Malloy to warn residents Sunday to clean snow off their roofs amid dangers of roof collapses from the added weight of rain.\nPresident Obama declared a state of emergency in Connecticut Sunday, ordering federal aid to supplement local emergency response efforts.\nNew York Gov. Andrew Cuomo ordered 675 pieces of equipment and 975 personnel dispatched to help Suffolk County, making up the eastern half of Long Island, dig out of 3 feet of snow.\nMost public transit throughout the Northeast was expected to resume at least limited service Monday.

This figure was down from a peak of nearly 670,000 reported by the U.S. Energy Department.\nMost remaining customers should have power again by late Monday, utilities said.\nAs the Northeast sought to recover, a large winter storm across the Northern Plains dumped at least a foot of snow and brought high winds and whiteout conditions from Colorado to central Minnesota.\nOfficials closed Interstate 90 between Sioux Falls and Chamberlain, S.D., 140 miles west, and Interstate 29 between Sioux Falls and Watertown, 100 miles north.

Two other people in that vehicle were rescued, he said, adding that police are actively searching for the four missing people.\nTorrential downpours began Friday afternoon in the Halifax region, dumping more than 200mm of rain in some areas. The port city normally receives around 90-100mm of rain during an average July.\nBased on radar estimates and unofficial observations, Environment Canada said Saturday that some areas may have received more than 300mm in 24 hours. Radar maps show the heaviest rainfall extending along the southwestern coast of the province to a point north of Halifax.\nWidespread flooding was also reported in Lunenberg County, which is west of the Halifax region.\nOn Friday night, water levels rose so fast in the Bedford area that Halifax Search and Rescue volunteers were using small boats to rescue people from flooded homes.\nIn the Hammonds Plains area, northwest of the city, floodwaters washed out driveways and the shoulders of many roads.\nThat’s the same area where 151 homes and businesses were destroyed by a wildfire that started May 28 and forced 16,000 residents to evacuate. And for much of the past week, the Halifax area has been sweltering under an immobile dome of moisture, a rare event so close to the coast.\nIt was just last fall that Post-Tropical Storm Fiona descended on the Mid-Atlantic region, killing three people, leveling dozens of homes, and knocking out power to more than 600,000 homes and businesses. Fiona was the costliest weather event in the region’s history, causing more than C$800 million ($604 million) in insured damage.\n“It’s pretty obvious that the weather is changing, from Fiona last year to the wildfires in the spring and now the flooding in the summer,” Halifax Mayor Mike Savage said.\n«We’re getting storms that used to be considered a one-in-50-year event… quite regularly,» he added.\nWhile official statistics have not yet been recorded, it is believed that the Halifax region has not seen this level of rain since August 16, 1971, when Hurricane Beth made landfall near the eastern tip of mainland Nova Scotia and then roared over Cape Breton. At the time, nearly 250mm of rain fell in the Halifax area, causing widespread flooding and damage.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

(ABC News: Grant Sherlock)\nExtreme weather has made its way down the east coast of Australia after drenching Queensland, with residents low-lying towns in New South Wales evacuated due to rising floodwaters.\nHeavy rain is also on the way for Victoria and Tasmania, with residents warned to prepare for flash flooding, strong winds and damaging surf conditions.\nParts of central Queensland were soaked overnight and a severe thunderstorm dumped further rain on the state's south-east, leading to flash flooding in some Brisbane suburbs.\nAn east coast low pressure system expected to form over southern Queensland skipped the sunshine state, with the worst of the weather passing over the Gold Coast into NSW by mid-afternoon on Saturday.\nInstead the east coast low started developing off the northern NSW coast late on Saturday. The Bureau of Meteorology expects it to move south of Sydney by late Sunday morning and to the south coast on Sunday afternoon.\nHundreds of State Emergency Service crews are working along the NSW coast to deal with the damage caused by wet and windy weather, and flood warnings have been issued for 23 rivers in the state.\nResidents in Billinudgel, Ocean Shores, Golden Beach, New Brighton and in low-lying areas near Coffs Creek, on the western edge of Coffs Harbour, have been ordered to evacuate due to rising floodwaters.\nAt 6:00pm on Saturday, flood evacuation warnings were also issued for Chinderah, the Seagulls Estate, South Murwillumbah, the township of Tumbulgum and Fingal Point area, near Tweed, west of the single-lane temporary bridge.\nPhil Campbell from the NSW SES said heavy rain and other issues were causing a dam-like effect in the area.\n\"When you take into account the floodwaters that are coming down the Tweed, when you've got the tide — one of the highest in the year — coming in as well as those large waves that are helping to stop the floodwaters get out effectively,\" he said.\nMore than 2,600 calls for help have been made to the NSW SES, with Byron Bay and Coffs Harbour in the north, Gosford in the central coast, and the Sutherland Shire in Sydney's south among the hardest hit areas.\nAcross Sydney, more than 100 power lines are down and several houses have lost roofs, including a unit block evacuated in Vaucluse, in Sydney's east.\nTwo people died in separate road incidents in NSW, but it was unclear whether the fatalities happened due to the weather. Authorities are still urging people to stay off the road unless travel is essential.\nThe Bureau of Meteorology said that king tides expected this evening could cause even more problems, with damaging surf and coastal erosion expected.\nMr Campbell said emergency services were not taking any chances.\n\"We've got flood rescue specialists deployed to areas that are known hot spots, particularly for flash flooding,\" he said.\n\"We've also been making sure we've got logistics such as sand bags in place in areas around the state.\"\nA flood watch has been issued for Victoria's East Gippsland region and wind warnings have also been issued in Tasmania.\nDamaging winds with peak gusts of 90kmph affected some coastal areas of southern Queensland with more than 350mm of rain falling on the Gold Coast hinterland since Friday morning.\nMuch of the NSW coastline and areas near the coast are expecting between 100 to 300mm of rain over the weekend.\nThe BoM's Michael Paeche said \"incredible\" levels of rainfall fell in Queensland on Friday night, with Yeppoon recording 80mm just after midnight and areas between Bundaberg and Gladstone recording up to 93mm in an hour.\nSenior forecaster Jonty Hall said there were particularly heavy falls just north of Brisbane on Saturday morning.\n\"Some of those produced rainfall amounts up to around 130 or 140mm in a three-hour period through this morning,\" he said.\nPolice said she was driving along the Capricorn Highway near Pine Hill Creek when she was swept into the creek just before 10:00pm last night.\nTruck drivers and local farmers rescued the Longreach woman from the roof of her car about an hour later when flood waters receded. She was treated at the scene for shock and exposure.\nThe rescue came as authorities warned people to stay indoors and off the roads until the danger conditions had passed.\nDamaging winds and potential floods are expected to persist into Sunday.\nDisaster response teams are on standby across south-east Queensland, and Gold Coast beaches were closed on Saturday.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

What we have now is a hybrid event, an upper atmosphere disturbane with lake enhancement.”\nAs of early this morning, the city of Marquette had received close to 6 inches of snow, while the Negaunee area had about 7 inches. Areas to the east of Marquette – through Delta, Schoolcraft, Luce and Alger counties – had received 8 inches or more of snow, Fleegel said.\n“That’s what we’ve received so far,” he said. “We will see light to moderate snow throughout the day, especially in the higher terrain of Marquette County. There may be a lull later in the afternoon, then the winds will shift and we’ll see more lake enhancement through tonight and into Saturday. In fact, it could be later Saturday afternoon by the time this winds down.”\nFleegel called this a “late winter-like weather system” and said the action isn’t over for winter-weary U.P. residents.\n“We have more cold on the horizon,” he said. “And we have rain and snow coming through Sunday into Sunday night and perhaps again Wednesday through Thursday.”\nAs of 8 this morning, no major traffic accidents had been reported in Marquette County, according to Sgt. Kevin Dowling at the Michigan State Police Post in Negaunee Township.\n“There was one minor accident in the city of Marquette and the report of a car up against a guardrail on M-35, but that’s about it,” Dowling said. “With schools closed on a snowy day like this, it cuts down on the traffic out there.\n“The major roads have already been plowed and are being salted. Some of the secondary roads will take a little longer. In a spring storm, it can take a few hours for the plows to catch up with things.”\nThe Marquette Regional History Center was closed today due to the weather while at Northern Michigan University, the 17th annual Jazz Festival was going on as scheduled, but with fewer participants.\n“It is unfortunate that many of the schools will not be here as planned, but at this time of the semester and with two guest artists’ schedules to deal with, there is simply no way to reschedule the festival,” said Cindy Paavola, NMU’s director of communications and marketing.\nNMU classes were taking place today as regularly scheduled and the jazz festival concert, set for 7:30 p.m. today at Kaufman Auditorium in Marquette, will go on as planned, featuring soloists Jim Snidero and Kathy Kosins with the NMU Jazz Band and Combo.\nFor ticket information, visit www.nmu.edu/music/node/28.\nRenee Prusi can be contacted at 906-228-2500, ext. 253.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

View.” .\n“So far, the EMM Hope rover has uncovered many unexpected phenomena that expand our understanding of the dynamics of the Martian atmosphere and magnetosphere.\n“These new observations, combined with the MAVEN data, open up entirely new possibilities for scientific research,” Matroushi said.\nMike Chaffin, a member of the EMM science team, said the new images represent the first time scientists have gained a global understanding of the spatial variability of Martian proton auroras, and the first time they have been able to clearly observe This patchy structure, lead author of the study, was published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters.\nWe know that these wavelengths are only emitted by hydrogen atoms, which tells us that ultra-high-energy hydrogen atoms must be present in the atmosphere to produce auroral emissions, Chaffin said.\nA data sharing agreement between EMM and MAVEN allows new EMM images to be analyzed using plasma observations made by MAVEN, which have characterized the Martian atmosphere since 2014.\nIn the new study, EMM discovered fine structures in proton auroras spanning one side of the Martian sky.\nTypical proton auroras observations by MAVEN and ESA’s (European Space Agency) Mars Express mission show that these auroras appear smooth and evenly distributed across the hemisphere.\nIn contrast, the proton auroras observed by the EMM appear highly dynamic and variable, the researchers said.\nThey say these “mottled proton auroras” form when turbulent conditions around Mars allow charged particles to rush directly into the atmosphere and glow as they slow down.\nThe UAE’s Hope mission has so far observed sporadic auroras several times over the course of its mission, and the shape of the aurora is not always the same.\n“Whether we’ll see anything as spectacular as what we already have is anyone’s guess, but I’m hopeful. Hope continues to far exceed our expectations for scientific discovery and I can’t wait to see what we learn next to what,” Chaffin added.\n(Only the title and images of this report may have been modified by Business Standards staff; the rest of the content was automatically generated from the syndicated feed.)\nBusiness Standard always strives to provide up-to-date information and commentary on developments that interest you and have wider political and economic impact on the country and the world.

The occasional solar interferences result in solar flares, which are known for emitting electromagnetic radiation.Solar flares are classified by their strength, starting from the weakest B class through C, M and the strongest X class, which can have the energy equivalent of 1 billion hydrogen bombs.Although these solar eruptions do not pose threats to humans, solar flare events can harm satellites and have negative effects on technology such as power grids. NASA has built numerous observatories to monitor and record such flares.‘Doomed Launch’: Dozens of Elon Musk’s SpaceX Satellites Annihilated by ‘Destruction Event’ From Sun16 September 2022, 18:49 GMTAs the sun moves towards the peak of its 11-year cycle, experts predict it will eventually reach its maximum activity, leading to more frequent X-class solar flares.Coronal holes are another aspect of the sun that NASA has been observing, areas that appear far darker in imaging as a result of their much cooler and less dense characteristics. In fact, coronal holes mark out solar areas with unipolar magnetic fields that creates the perfect environment for free-flowing solar winds.Although coronal holes on their own are usually unable to cause an outright solar storm, they’re typically given a power boost of sorts when combined with coronal mass ejections, combination that ultimately results in the phenomena known as the aurora borealis.Dark Side of Sun: X-Class Solar Flare Rocks Earth and Blackouts Radio31 March, 08:50 GMTFilaments of solar material, including sun tornadoes and a solar polar vortex, are additional areas of interest for the US space agency. Such filaments are fixed to magnetic field lines on the surface of the sun until they inevitably become unstable, and either fall back to the sun or burst out into space. Earlier this year, in March, a solar tornado was spotted twirling above the sun’s surface in quite the stunning find by researchers.Scott McIntosh, a solar physicist and deputy director of the National Center for Atmospheric Research, told US media that such a solar prominence has appeared along the solar north pole in the same exact location every 11 solar-year cycle.”Once every solar cycle, it forms at the 55 degree latitude and it starts to march up to the solar poles,” said McIntosh. “It’s very curious. There is a big ‘why’ question around it. Why does it only move toward the pole one time and then disappears and then comes back, magically, three or four years later in exactly the same region?”The current solar cycle is expected to peak in 2025.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Across the whole of the year, temperatures average 27°C to 31°C, but the heat is accompanied by cooling sea breezes. With over 300 days of sunshine a year, the Caribbean is a fantastic destination no matter the month.\nThe Caribbean weather year\nThe Caribbean has beauty all year round, but it’s useful to know that many of the region’s coastlines and islands experience a specific rainy season each year. Some islands, such as Aruba rarely have any rain at all, but others, including Jamaica, Barbados and Cuba have both rainy and dry seasons at different times of year.\nGenerally, the dry season runs from around November through to April or May. The rain and temperature patterns on individual islands and coastlines can vary widely, so it’s worth checking specific weather details for each destination you’re interested in. Also, take a look at our facts below to give you a helping hand.\nTaking a vacation during the rainier seasons can still be gorgeous, though air humidity will be higher, with an increased likelihood of tropical storms and generally more unsettled weather.\nIf you’re a nature lover who is hoping to watch sea turtles hatching, or spot migrating birds, the chance of clouds and exhilarating tropical rainfall shouldn’t be enough to put you off. However, if you’re definitely looking for clear blue skies and calm seas, it’s essential to book your break within your destination’s dry season months.\nPlanning out of season breaks\nSome visitors to the Caribbean islands prefer to take their breaks during the cooler, out of season months. The slightly lower temperatures of the rainy season can be more comfortable than the hotter months for some travellers, although ideally it’s best to work around the tropical storm season where possible.\nThe temperatures are still warm enough to spend lots of the time outside and it’s regularly sunny enough even for a dedicated beach holiday. As a bonus, there will also be far fewer people around, making it more likely that you’ll find empty beaches, perfect peace and an extra chilled-out vibe.\nBooking for perfect holiday weather\nThere are a number of local weather facts that can be helpful in guiding you though, to ensure that you book your holiday at the ideal time to meet your holiday weather preferences.\nThe dry season for most of the Caribbean runs from November to April. So if you definitely want hot, sunny beach-and-swim weather these are the key months to book your Caribbean holiday getaway.\nAlthough the Caribbean as a whole offers visitors sunshine and warmth throughout the year, the islands of Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao have the lowest overall rainfall.\nThe island regions of Bermuda, Aruba and the Turks and Caicos Islands don’t have a specific annual rainy season. They offer high temperatures, clear skies and calm seas pretty much the entire year round.\nApart from the ABC Islands of Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao, tropical storms and hurricanes usually occur during September and October, so sunshine fans should book holidays outside these times.\nPlanning your holiday dates ensures you get the most perfect Caribbean weather for your holiday needs. Whatever time of year you decide to travel you will find a friendly, relaxed welcome and immense beauty wherever you look.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Snowpack was well below normal for 12 of those years with five years being right at normal.”\nWayne Jones, University of Idaho Extension educator at Idaho Falls, said the rain has been disastrous for most crops in his area.\n“The second-crop hay, for those that had it cut but not up, has serious problems with mold,” he said. “The grain has started to sprout in the heads before it could be harvested. That’s really a serious issue for the barley growers. Anheuser-Busch has a strict limit on how much sprout is allowed for their product, so that will limit what they will accept from around here. I don’t know how that will impact beer drinkers.”\nPotato crops also are at risk.\n“Late blight is a real concern and it loves this wet weather,” Jones said. “If the farmers haven’t already sprayed for late blight, they better be doing it pretty quick. My hat is off to all the producers for what they go through and risk every year to produce crops here. Our weather is so unpredictable. It’s tough to be a plant in Idaho”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The red light is bent the most and falls on the surface of the moon giving it this mysterious colour.\nIt's the same effect that makes sunrises and sunsets have a red-orange colour too.\nWe've included some pictures showing the dramatic sight of the blood moon with part of it blacked out by the Earth's shadow as the eclipse took place.\nSo what about the Perseids?\nThe annual show of shooting stars known as the Perseids are set to peak this week.\nThey are formed from rock and dust trailing behind a comet and we are about to pass through the densest section of debris.\nExpect to see around 40 to 50 shooting stars an hour as the display reaches maximum intensity on on the night of Saturday, August 12. There will also be great shows the night before and the night after.\nAnd when is the total solar eclipse?\nA total eclipse - dubbed the Great American Eclipse - will happen on Monday, August 21, 2017.\nComplete blackout of the sun will be seen in a narrow band going across the entire USA from west to east coasts. The rest of the country will witness a partial eclipse of at least 48 per cent coverage of the sun.\nIn the UK, we will see only a small part of the sun - about four per cent - covered by the moon, but it will still be a rare and interesting phenomenon worth watching.\nAs the total eclipse is only visible in parts of the USA, many stargazers are making special trips from the UK and across the world just to see the celestial event.\nMillions of people are heading towards the area where total darkness will be experienced.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The coastal city of New Bern, which sits at the intersection of two rivers, tweeted that 150 people were awaiting rescue from out-of-state FEMA teams, the News & Observer reports. Mayor Dana Outlaw said around 200 people had been rescued earlier. He could not confirm whether there were fatalities.

That was the first time in human history that the concentration went so high. Those who have followed this number, which is displayed here in Item A1 to the left, then watched it dip in the subsequent months below 400 and drop down to just above 394 ppm; that was in early September. It dropped through the northern hemisphere summer because northern hemisphere trees and other photosynthesizing plants were eating so much CO2—summer is, literally, their time in the sun. Well, summer ended more than three months ago, and the northern hemisphere just experienced the winter solstice. The plant growing season is long over. And the CO2 concentration just today went above 400 ppm again. I’m worried that it’s probably going to stay there.\nAn nuclear plant in the U.S., the famous and ill-starred Vermont Yankee, has just come permanently out of service. It has ended its life as a provider of electricity to the northeast. It ran since the 1970s, mostly as a baseload—twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, often for hundreds of days at a time—provider. Its 600 megawatts of output came with no CO2 at all. Those 600 MW will now likely be replaced with natural-gas, i.e., methane, fired generators. You can read about the effort to keep this just-about-entirely-unappreciated workhorse running, and what will follow the nuclear era in Vermont, in Meredith Angwin’s powerful, thoughtful, and saddened-but-still-optimistic blog Yes Vermont Yankee.\nA 600 MW gas-fired plant, running as a 24/7 provider, will dump roughly 2.6 million tons of CO2 into the air each year. Those 2.6 million tons started going into our atmosphere last Monday, December 29.\nAnd today, the global CO2 concentration moved again above 400 ppm. Because of the Vermont Yankee closure, and hundreds of other terrible and short-sighted anti-nuclear decisions, that 400 mark will soon become the good old days.

The heating of the earth\"s surface by the sunlight isthe force responsible for creating the circulation the does exist.\nYou are watching: A steep pressure gradient ________.\nBecause that the curvature that the earth,the most direct rays that the sun strike the earth in the vicinity of the equator resultingin the best concentration that heat, the largest feasible amount of radiation, and also themaximum heating of the atmosphere in this area that the earth. In ~ the very same time, thesun\"s light ray strike the earth at the poles in ~ a very oblique angle, bring about a muchlower concentration of heat and much less radiation so the there is, in fact, very littleheating that the environment over the poles and consequently really cold temperatures.\nCold air, being more dense, sink andhot air, being much less dense, rises. Consequently, the rising heat air in ~ the equatorbecomes even less thick as the rises and its press decreases. An area the lowpressure, therefore, exists end the equator.\nWarm wait rises till it reaches acertain elevation at which the starts to pour out over right into surrounding areas. At thepoles, the cold dense air sinks. Wait from the top levels of the environment flowsin on height of it boosting the weight and creating one area that high press at the poles.\nThe air that rises in ~ the equator walk notflow straight to the poles. Due to the rotation the the earth, over there is a construct up the airat around 30° north latitude. (The very same phenomenon wake up in the southern Hemisphere). Several of the wait sinks, leading to a belt the high-pressure in ~ this latitude.\nThe sinking waiting reaches the surfaceand flows north and also south. The air the flows southern completes one cell of theearth\"s circulation pattern. The air that flows phibìc becomes part of one more cellof circulation between 30° and 60° north latitude. In ~ the same time, the sinkingair at the north pole flows south and also collides through the air relocating north native the 30°high press area. The colliding wait is forced upward and an area of low pressureis developed near 60° north. The 3rd cell circulation pattern is developed betweenthe north pole and also 60° north.\nBecause of the rotation that the earthand the coriolis force, waiting is deflected come the right in the north Hemisphere. Asa result, the activity of wait in the polar cell circulation to produce the polar easterlies. In the circulation cell that exists in between 60° and also 30° north, the activity ofair produce the prevailing westerlies. In the tropic circulation cell, thenortheast profession winds are produced. These space the so-called long-term wind systemsof the each.\nUPPER LEVEL WINDS\nThere are two main forces which affect the movement of air in the top levels. The push gradient reasons the wait to relocate horizontally, forcing the air directly from a an ar of high push to a an ar of short pressure. The Coriolis force, however, deflects the direction of the circulation of the waiting (to the appropriate in the north Hemisphere) and also causes the air to flow parallel to the isobars.\nWinds in the upper levels will certainly blow clockwise around areas the high pressure and counterclockwise roughly areas of low pressure.\nThe rate of the wind is determined by the press gradient. The winds space strongest in regions where the isobars space close together.\nSurface friction plays vital role in the speed and also direction of surface winds. As a an outcome of the slowing down of the air as it moves over the ground, wind speeds are less than would certainly be intended from the push gradient top top the derekwadsworth.com map and also the direction is changed so the the wind blows across the isobars right into a facility of low pressure and out the a facility of high pressure.\nThe result of friction generally does not extend much more than a pair of thousand feet into the air. In ~ 3000 feet above the ground, the wind blows parallel come the isobars with a speed proportional to the pressure gradient.\nEven enabling for the results of surface ar friction, the winds, locally, execute not always show the speed and also direction that would be meant from the isobars ~ above the surface ar derekwadsworth.com map. This variations space usually because of geographical functions such as hills, hills and huge bodies of water. Other than in such as mountain regions, the impact of terrain features that cause local sports in wind extends generally no higher than around 2000 feet over the ground.\nLAND and SEA BREEZES\nLand and also sea breezes are brought about by the distinctions in temperature end land and also water. The sea breeze occurs during the day once the land area heats an ext rapidly than the water surface. This results in the push over the land being lower than the over the water. The press gradient is often solid enough for a wind to blow from the water come the land.\nThe land breeze blows in ~ night once the land i do not care cooler. Climate the wind blows in the direction of the warm, low-pressure area over the water.\nLand and also sea breezes are very local and affect only a small area along the coast.\nHills and valleys considerably distort the airflow associated with the prevailing pressure system and the press gradient. Strong up and down drafts and also eddies construct as the air flows up over hills and also down right into valleys. Wind direction changes as the air flows approximately hills. Periodically lines the hills and also mountain varieties will act as a barrier, holding back the wind and deflecting it so the it operation parallel come the range. If over there is a pass in the mountain range, the wind will rush with this happen as through a tunnel with considerable speed. The airflow deserve to be intended to remain turbulent and also erratic for some distance together it flows the end of the hilly area and into the flatter countryside.\nDaytime heating and nighttime cooling the the hilly slopes lead to day to night sports in the airflow. In ~ night, the political parties of the hills cool by radiation. The air in call with them becomes cooler and therefore denser and also it blows under the slope right into the valley. This is a katabatic wind (sometimes additionally called a hill breeze). If the slopes room covered with ice and also snow, the katabatic wind will certainly blow, not just at night, but also during the day, transporting the cold dense air into the warmer valleys. The slopes that hills not spanned by snow will be warmed throughout the day. The air in call with them becomes warmer and less thick and, therefore, operation up the slope. This is one anabatic wind (or valley breeze).\nIn like the mountain areas, regional distortion that the air flow is even much more severe. Rocky surfaces, high ridges, slim cliffs, steep valleys, all integrate to create unpredictable flow patterns and turbulence.\nTHE hill WAVE\nAir flowing throughout a mountain selection usually rises reasonably smoothly increase the slope of the range, but, when over the top, that pours under the various other side with significant force, bouncing up and also down, developing eddies and turbulence and additionally creating powerful vertical waves the may expand for an excellent distances downwind of the mountain range. This phenomenon is well-known as a hill wave. Keep in mind the up and down drafts and also the rotating eddies formed downstream.\nIf the air mass has actually a high moisture content, clouds of really distinctive appearance will develop.\nCap Cloud. Orographic lift reasons a cloud to type along the peak of the ridge. The wind dead this cloud under along the leeward slope where it dissipates v adiabatic heating. The base of this cloud lies near or below the peaks of the ridge; the top may reach a few thousand feet over the peaks.\nLenticular (Lens Shaped) Clouds form in the wave crests aloft and also lie in bands that may prolong to well above 40,000 feet.\nRotor Clouds form in the rojo eddies downstream. Castle resemble a long line the stratocumulus clouds, the bases of i m sorry lie below the mountain peaks and the top of which might reach to a considerable height above the peaks. Occasionally these clouds construct into thunderstorms.\nThe clouds, being really distinctive, have the right to be seen from a good distance and provide a clearly shows warning that the mountain wave condition. Unfortunately, sometimes they are embedded in various other cloud systems and also are hidden from sight. Occasionally the waiting mass is an extremely dry and the clouds carry out not develop.\nThe severity of the mountain wave and also the height to i m sorry the disturbance of the waiting is influenced is dependent on the strength of the wind, its angle to the selection and the stability or instability of the air. The many severe mountain wave conditions are created in strong airflows that room blowing at ideal angles come the selection and in stable air. A jet stream blowing virtually perpendicular come the mountain selection increases the severity the the wave condition.\nThe mountain wave phenomenon is not restricted only to high hill ranges, such together the Rockies, but is also present to a lesser degree in smaller mountain systems and even in currently of tiny hills.\nMountain waves existing problems to pilots for numerous reasons:\nVertical Currents. Downdrafts that 2000 feet every minute are common and downdrafts as good as 5000 feet per minute have actually been reported. They take place along the downward slope and are most severe in ~ a height equal to that of the summit. One airplane, caught in a downdraft, might be compelled to the ground.\nTurbulence is usually incredibly severe in the waiting layer in between the ground and the top of the rotor clouds.\nWind Shear. The wind speed varies dramatically between the crests and troughs the the waves. It is usually many severe in the wave nearest the hill range.\nAltimeter Error. The boost in wind speed outcomes in one accompanying diminish in pressure, which consequently affects the accuracy that the press altimeter.\nIcing. The freeze level varies substantially from crest come trough. Serious icing deserve to occur due to the fact that of the huge supercooled droplets continual in the solid vertical currents.\nWhen flying over a hill ridge whereby wave conditions exist: (1) protect against ragged and also irregular shaped cloudsthe rarely often rare shape shows turbulence. (2) method the mountain at a 45-degree angle. The you need to suddenly decide to rotate back, a rapid turn can be made far from the high ground. (3) protect against flying in cloud top top the hill crest (cap cloud) since of strong downdrafts and turbulence. (4) enable sufficient elevation to clean the highest possible ridges with altitude to preventive to prevent the downdrafts and also eddies on the downwind slopes. (5) constantly remember the your altimeter deserve to read end 3000 ft. In error on the high side in hill wave conditions.\nA gust is a rapid and also irregular fluctuation of differing intensity in the upward and downward movement of waiting currents. It might be linked with a rapid change in wind direction. Gusts are caused by mechanical turbulence that results from friction between the air and also the ground and also by the unequal heating of the earth\"s surface, an especially on hot summer afternoons.\nA squall is a sudden rise in the strength of the wind of much longer duration 보다 a gust and also may be brought about by the passage of a quick moving cold prior or thunderstorm. Prefer a gust, it might be accompanied by a rapid change of wind direction.\nDiurnal (daily) variation of wind is caused by strong surface heating during the day, which causes turbulence in the reduced levels. The result of this turbulence is that the direction and also speed the the wind in ~ the greater levels (e.g., 3000 feet) has tendency to be transferred to the surface. Due to the fact that the wind direction at the greater level is parallel come the isobars and its rate is higher than the surface wind, this transfer reasons the surface ar wind to veer and also increase in speed.\nAt night, over there is no surface ar heating and also therefore much less turbulence and also the surface ar wind has tendency to resume its normal direction and also speed. That backs and decreases. Check out VEERING and also BACKING section below for more info.\nFriction between the relocating air mass and surface attributes of the planet (hills, mountains, valleys, trees, buildings, etc.) is responsible because that the swirling vortices the air generally called eddies. Castle vary substantially in size and intensity depending upon the size and also roughness the the surface obstruction, the speed of the wind and the degree of security of the air. They have the right to spin in one of two people a horizontal or upright plane. Stormy air and solid winds produce much more vigorous eddies. In secure air, eddies tend to quickly dissipate. Eddies produced in mountainous locations are specifically powerful.\nThe bumpy or choppy up and also down movement that signifies the presence of eddies provides it daunting to store an plane in level flight.\nDust devils room phenomena that occur quite frequently on the hot dry levels of mid-western north America. They deserve to be of sufficient force to present a danger to pilots of irradiate airplanes paris at low speeds.\nThey are small heat short that form on clear hot days. Given a steep slide out rate brought about by cool wait aloft over a warm surface, little horizontal waiting movement, couple of or no clouds, and the noonday sunlight heating level arid floor surfaces come high temperatures, the wait in contact with the ground becomes super-heated and also highly unstable. This surface ar layer of wait builds till something root cause an increase movement. As soon as started, the warm air rises in a column and draws an ext hot air right into the base of the column. Circulation begins about this heat low and also increases in velocity till a little vigorous whirlwind is created. Dust devils are usually of short duration and are so named since they room made visible by the dust, sand and also debris that they pick up native the ground.\nDust devils posture the best hazard close to the ground wherein they are many violent. Pilots proposing to land ~ above superheated runways in areas of the mid-west whereby this phenomenon is common should scan the airport for dust swirls or grass spirals the would suggest the existence of this hazard.\nTornadoes space violent, circular whirlpools the air connected with major thunderstorms and are, in fact, an extremely deep, concentrated low-pressure areas. They room shaped favor a tunnel hanging out of the cumulonimbus cloud and also are dark in appearance due to the dust and also debris sucked into their whirlpools. They selection in diameter from about 100 feet come one fifty percent mile and also move end the floor at speed of 25 come 50 knots. Their course over the soil is usually just a couple of miles lengthy although tornadoes have been report to cut destructive swaths as lengthy as 100 miles. The great destructiveness of tornadoes is brought about by the really low press in your centers and also the high wind speeds, i beg your pardon are understood to be as great as 300 knots.\nWIND SPEEDS and also DIRECTION\nWind speeds for aviation objectives are express in knots (nautical miles per hour). In the derekwadsworth.com reports on us public radio and television, however, wind speed are given in miles every hour when in Canada speeds are given in kilometers per hour.\nIn a discussion of wind direction, the compass allude from i m sorry the wind is punch is considered to it is in its direction. Therefore, a phibìc wind is one that is blowing native the north towards the south. In aviation derekwadsworth.com reports, area and also aerodrome forecasts, the wind is always reported in levels true. In ATIS broadcasts and in the information offered by the tower because that landing and also take-off, the wind is report in degrees magnetic.\nVEERING and BACKING\nThe wind veers when it alters direction clockwise. Example: The surface ar wind is blowing from 270°. In ~ 2000 feet that is blowing indigenous 280°. It has changed in a right-hand, or clockwise, direction.\nThe wind backs once it changes direction anti-clockwise. Example: The wind direction at 2000 feet is 090° and at 3000 feet is 085°. That is transforming in a left-hand, or anti-clockwise, direction.\nIn a descent from several thousand feet above the ground to ground level, the wind will usually be discovered to back and also decrease in velocity, as the result of surface ar friction becomes apparent. In a climb from the surface ar to several thousand feet AGL, the wind will certainly veer and also increase.\nAt night, surface cooling to reduce the eddy movement of the air. Surface ar winds will ago and decrease. Conversely, throughout the day, surface heating increases the eddy motion of the air. Surface winds will veer and increase as more powerful winds aloft mix to the surface. See DIURNAL VARIATIONS section above for much more info.\nWind shear is the sudden tearing or shearing effect encountered follow me the sheet of a region in which there is a violent readjust in wind rate or direction. It have the right to exist in a horizontal or upright direction and also produces churning motions and consequently turbulence. Under some conditions, wind direction transforms of as lot as 180 degrees and speed alters of as much as 80 knots have actually been measured.\nThe effect on airplane performance the encountering wind shear derives from the fact that the wind can change much much faster than the plane mass deserve to be accelerated or decelerated. Severe wind shears deserve to impose penalties on an airplane\"s performance the are past its capabilities to compensate, especially during the an essential landing and also take-off phase of flight.\nIn seafaring Flight\nIn cruising flight, wind shear will likely be encountered in the change zone between the pressure gradient wind and the distorted regional winds in ~ the lower levels. It will likewise be encountered when climbing or descending with a temperature inversion and also when passing with a frontal surface. Wind shear is also associated with the jet stream. Plane encountering wind shear may experience a succession of updrafts and downdrafts, reductions or benefit in headwind, or windshifts that disrupt the developed flight path. It is not generally a significant problem since altitude and airspeed margins will certainly be enough to against the shear\"s disadvantage effects. On occasion, however, the wind shear may be severe sufficient to cause an abrupt rise in fill factor, which might stall the airplane or inflict structural damage.\nNear the Ground\nWind shear, encountered near the ground, is more serious and potentially really dangerous. There room four common sources of short level wind shear: thunderstorms, frontal activity, temperature inversions and solid surface winds passing roughly natural or manmade obstacles.\nFrontal Wind Shear. Wind shear is typically a problem only in fronts with steep wind gradients. If the temperature difference across the front in ~ the surface ar is 5°C or more and if the front is moving at a rate of around 30 knots or more, wind shear is likely to be present. Frontal wind shear is a phenomenon connected with rapid moving cold fronts however can be existing in heat fronts together well.\nThunderstorms. Wind shear, connected with thunderstorms, occurs as the an outcome of two phenomena, the gust front and downbursts. As the thunderstorm matures, strong downdrafts develop, strike the ground and spread out horizontally follow me the surface well in advancement of the thunderstorm itself. This is the gust front. Winds can adjust direction by as lot as 180° and reach speeds as good as 100 knots as far as 10 mile ahead of the storm. The downburst is an extremely intense localized downdraft flowing out of a thunderstorm. The strength of the downburst can exceed plane climb capabilities. The downburst (there are two species of downbursts: macrobursts and microbursts) commonly is lot closer come the thunderstorm 보다 the gust front. Dust clouds, roll clouds, intense rainfall or virga (rain the evaporates prior to it get the ground) are due to the possibility of downburst activity but there is no method to accurately suspect its occurrence.\nTemperature Inversions. Overnight cooling creates a temperature inversion a couple of hundred feet above the soil that have the right to produce far-reaching wind shear, particularly if the reverse is coupled v the low-level jet stream.\nAs a nocturnal reverse develops, the wind shear close to the optimal of the reverse increases. It usually reaches its best speed soon after midnight and decreases in the morning as daytime heater dissipates the inversion. This phenomenon is known as the low-level nocturnal jet stream. The low level jet stream is a sheet of solid winds, thousands of miles long, thousands of miles large and thousands of feet special that forms over flat terrain such together the prairies. Wind speeds of 40 knots space common, yet greater speeds have actually been measured. Short level jet streams room responsible for hazardous low level shear.\nAs the inversion dissipates in the morning, the shear aircraft and gusty winds move closer to the ground, resulting in windshifts and increases in wind speed close to the surface.\nSurface Obstructions. The irregular and turbulent flow of air around mountains and also hills and also through hill passes causes serious wind shear difficulties for plane approaching to land in ~ airports near hill ridges. Wind shear is a phenomenon associated with the hill wave. Such shear is virtually totally unpredictable however should be supposed whenever surface winds are strong.\nWind shear is likewise associated with hangars and large buildings in ~ airports. Together the wait flows roughly such large structures, wind direction changes and wind speed increases causing shear.\nWind shear wake up both horizontally and vertically. Upright shear is most typical near the ground and can pose a serious peril to airplanes during take-off and landing. The plane is paris at lower speeds and also in a reasonably high drag configuration. There is tiny altitude accessible for recovering and also stall and also maneuver margins room at their lowest. An plane encountering the wind shear phenomenon may experience a large loss that airspeed due to the fact that of the sudden readjust in the family member airflow as the aircraft flies into a new, moving air mass. The abrupt autumn in airspeed may result in a stall, developing a dangerous situation when the plane is only a few hundred feet off the floor and very vulnerable.\nTHE JET STREAM\nNarrow bands the exceedingly high speed winds are known to exist in the higher levels that the environment at altitudes varying from 20,000 to 40,000 feet or more. Castle are known as jet streams. As many as three significant jet streams may traverse the phibìc American continent at any kind of given time. One lies across Northern Canada and also one across the U.S. A 3rd jet stream might be as far south together the northern tropics however it is rather rare. A jet present in the mid latitudes is usually the strongest.\nThe jet stream shows up to it is in closely connected with the tropopause and with the polar front. It frequently forms in the break in between the polar and the tropical tropopause where the temperature gradients are intensified. The mean position the the jet present shears southern in winter and also north in summer through the seasonal migrate of the polar front. Since the troposphere is depth in summer than in winter, the tropopause and the jets will nominally be at greater altitudes in the summer.\nLong, strong jet streams room usually likewise associated v well-developed surface ar lows in ~ deep upper troughs and also lows. A low emerging in the tide along the frontal surface lies south of the jet. Together it deepens, the low moves near the jet. As it occludes, the short moves north of the jet, which the cross the frontal system, close to the allude of occlusion. The jet flows about parallel come the front. The subtropical jet stream is not associated with fronts but forms due to the fact that of strong solar heater in the equatorial regions. The ascending air transforms poleward at very high levels yet is deflected by the Coriolis force into a solid westerly jet. The subtropical jet predominates in winter.\nThe jet streams circulation from west come east and may encircle the whole hemisphere. An ext often, because they are stronger in some locations than in others, they break up right into segments part 1000 come 3000 nautical mile long. They are usually around 300 nautical miles vast and may be 3000 come 7000 feet thick. This jet stream segments relocate in one easterly direction adhering to the motion of push ridges and also troughs in the top atmosphere.\nWinds in the central core that the jet stream space the strongest and may reach speeds as good as 250 knots, return they room generally between 100 and also 150 knots. Wind speeds decrease toward the outer edges that the jet stream and also may be blowing at only 25 knots there. The price of diminish of wind rate is significantly greater top top the northern edge than on the southerly edge. Wind speeds in the jet stream are, on average, significantly stronger in winter than in summer.\nClear air Turbulence. The most probable place to mean Clear Air turbulence (CAT) is just over the central core the the jet stream close to the polar tropopause and also just below the core. Clean air turbulence does not occur in the core. CAT is encountered more frequently in winter as soon as the jet present winds space strongest. Nevertheless, CAT is not always present in the jet present and, due to the fact that it is random and transient in nature, it is virtually impossible come forecast.\nSee more: Gasoline And Dish Soap - What Happens If You Put Detergent In A Gas Tank\nClear air turbulence may be connected with other derekwadsworth.com patterns, specifically in wind shear linked with the sharply bent contours of solid lows, troughs and ridges aloft, at or below the tropopause, and in locations of solid cold or heat air advection. Hill waves create severe CAT the may prolong from the mountain crests to as high as 5000 feet over the tropopause. Since severe CAT does pose a risk to airplanes, pilots should try to protect against or minimize encounters with it. These rules of thumb may assist avoid jet streams with solid winds (150 knots) at the core. Solid wind shears are likely over and below the core. CAT within the jet present is an ext intense above and to the lee of hill ranges. If the 20-knot isotachs (lines joining areas of same wind speeds) are closer than 60 nautical miles on the charts showing the places of the jet stream, wind shear and CAT space possible.\nCurving jet streams are likely to have turbulent edges, specifically those the curve around a deep pressure trough. When moderate or serious CAT has actually been reported or is forecast, change speed to stormy air speed instantly on encountering the first bumpiness or even prior to encountering that to protect against structural damage to the airplane.\nThe locations of CAT room usually shallow and also narrow and also elongated with the wind. If jet stream turbulence is encountered with a tail wind or head wind, a turn to the appropriate will uncover smoother waiting and much more favorable winds. If the CAT is encountered in a crosswind, the is no so essential to change course together the rough area will certainly be narrow.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

It marks the Northern Hemisphere’s shortest day ( first day of winter ) and Southern Hemisphere’s longest day (first day of summer).\nWhat month does it start getting lighter?\nDaylight hours will get longer everyday until the summer solstice (longest day of the year) – the next one being on June 21 2021 in the Northern Hemisphere. The mornings started getting brighter at the beginning of January, rather than on the solstice itself.\nHow much longer is each day after the winter solstice?\nNear the December solstice, each solar day is about 24 hours and 30 seconds long. That means it takes a little longer than 24 hours for the sun to appear in the same place in the sky from one day to the next.\nAre days getting longer 2020?\nThe days will continue to get longer until we reach the Summer Solstice on June 20th. After that, the days will slowly start to get shorter again. But it’s a slow process, the sun will still rise before 6 AM through July 26, 2020, and the sun will continue to set after 8 PM through August 11th, 2020.\nHow many minutes of daylight do we gain each day?\nAs the sun moves higher in the sky between March and June, there are two more minutes of daylight each day.\nWhat’s the shortest day of the year 2020?\nIn 2020 the winter solstice will occur on Monday 21 December.\nWhat time is it meant to get dark tonight?\nSydney, NSW, Australia — Sunrise, Sunset, and Moon Times for Today\n|Current Time:||Feb 8, 2021 at 11:02:31 am|\n|Sunset Today:||7:51 pm↑ 253° West|\n|Moonrise Today:||5:22 am↑ 116° Southeast|\n|Moonset Today:||7:49 pm↑ 246° West|\n|Daylight Hours:||13 hours, 25 minutes (-1m 55s)|\nWhy are mornings darker in January?\nDr Marek Kukula, an astronomer at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, said that a combination of the tilt of the earth and its elliptical orbit make the sunrise ‘hang’ during the late December and early January period. “This, combined with the tilt of the earth, means that mornings stay darker.”\nHow quickly does it get lighter after the shortest day?\nThe days get longer by an average of 2 minutes and 7 seconds every day after 21 December. It won’t be until around 18 January that an extra hour of daylight will come, and every 28 days (four weeks) thereafter, an hour or so of sunshine should lighten the days.\nWhat is the darkest day of the year?\nThe Winter Solstice is fast approaching. It’s the northern hemisphere’s shortest day and longest night, set to occur on Monday, December 21, 2020. This solstice occurs when the earth tilts on its axis, pulling the northern hemisphere away from direct sunlight.\nWhat is the longest and shortest day of the year?\nWinter Solstice: In the Southern Hemisphere, today is Summer Solstice — in places like Australia, New Zealand and South Africa, December 21 is the year’s longest day. Today, December 21, is Winter Solstice, the shortest day of the year in the Northern Hemisphere.\nWhats the longest day in the year?\nWhen is the longest day of the year? In the northern hemisphere, the summer solstice, or longest day of the year, takes place between June 20 and 22 each year.\nWhat is considered spring 2020?\nDates for Spring\n|Year||Spring Starts||Spring Ends|\n|Spring 2020||Thursday, March 19 2020||Saturday, June 20 2020|\n|Spring 2021||Saturday, March 20 2021||Sunday, June 20 2021|\n|Spring 2022||Sunday, March 20 2022||Tuesday, June 21 2022|\n|Spring 2023||Monday, March 20 2023||Wednesday, June 21 2023|","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Allergy sufferers are getting bombarded with a spike in pollen thanks to some early blooms.\nThe tree pollen level shot up to high today due to the warm and windy conditions.\nLocal doctors say typically the first couple weeks of April mark the start of heavy allergy season. That increases throughout the month as more trees release pollen spores, which can be seen blanketing the area.\nThis year, allergy sufferers have already been reporting symptoms for weeks, thanks to a mild winter. In fact, the Capital Weather Gang reports this has been the third warmest meteorological winter on record for the region.\nDon’t worry, there is relief in sight. Lower temperatures and expected showers should push pollen back into the moderate level tomorrow.\nUntil then, here are some tips for lessening allergy suffering:\n- Keep windows closed at home and in the car. Use the air conditioner if necessary, and be sure to change air filters.\n- Stay inside on windy days.\n- Avoid outdoor activity in the morning when pollen counts are highest, usually from 5:00-10:00 a.m.\n- Change clothes after being outside. Take a shower to wash off pollen spores, especially before going to bed.\n- Use a machine to dry laundry instead of hanging it outside.\nGet ready for some breezy weather tonight. The National Weather Service is predicting 20 to 30 mph sustained winds, with gusts up to 55 mph, starting late this afternoon.\nThe winds carry the possibility of blowing debris and downed power lines, among other hazards. From Arlington Alerts:\nThe National Weather Service has issued a Wind Advisory for Arlington County and other jurisdictions within the National Capital Region from 3 pm, Friday, February 24th, until midnight tonight. The strongest winds are expected to occur late this afternoon thru this evening with gusts up to 55 MPH. Winds this strong may make driving difficult, especially for high profile vehicles. Use extra caution\n(Updated at 12:25 p.m.) Tropical storm-force winds from Hurricane Irene, combined with a steady, soaking rain, brought down at least 75 trees throughout Arlington last night, completely or partially blocking at least 35 streets, authorities said.\nThe falling trees blocked main roads, like Columbia Pike and westbound I-66, and knocked out power to various parts of the county. The 100 block of N. Liberty Street, Rock Spring Road and N. Wakefield Street, N. Quantico and N. 18th Street and N. Edison and Little Falls Road all remain blocked this afternoon, according to authorities and residents. County crews with chainsaws are helping to remove fallen trees and tree limbs from the roadway.\nSome trees fell onto power lines and the roofs of houses, courtesy of wind gusts up to 59 miles per hour. A tree also fell onto the Blue Line tracks near Arlington National Cemetery, forcing Metro trains to single-track through the area.\nDominion was reporting more than 14,000 customers without power in Arlington as of 6:00 a.m. Numerous traffic lights were either dark or flashing as power flickered in many parts of the county overnight. The number of reported power outages dropped to just below 8,000 by noon on Sunday.\nSo far, only one minor storm-related injuries has been reported, according to Arlington County spokeswoman Jennifer K. Smith.\nA flood watch will take effect at 6:00 tonight as heavy rains move into our area from the southwest.\nA steady, soaking, all-day rain and and gusty winds should make for an unpleasant Thursday. Officials are warning anyone who lives in low-lying or flood-prone areas to be “prepared to take action should flood develop.”\nFLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT FROM 6 PM EST THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY EVENING…\nTHE FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES FOR\n* PORTIONS OF NORTHERN AND EASTERN MARYLAND… THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND NORTHERN VIRGINIA… EAST OF THE BLUE RIDGE.\n* FROM 6 PM EST THIS EVENING THROUGH THURSDAY EVENING\n* PERIODS OF MODERATE TO HEAVY RAIN WILL MOVE INTO THE REGION AHEAD OF A COLD FRONT THIS EVENING INTO THURSDAY.

THOSE LIVING IN AREAS PRONE TO FLOODING SHOULD BE PREPARED TO TAKE ACTION SHOULD FLOODING DEVELOP.\nMiserable weather led to scattered problems across Arlington last night.\nSteady rains caused some localized flooding in parts of the county. Police reportedly had to block off 11th Street at North Kennebec Street last night due to water in the roadway. A big pool of standing water also caused a traffic hazard on the northbound lanes of Glebe Road, just before Wilson Boulevard.\nLocal streams filled with fast-moving water as a result of the rain. This video shows a normally-peaceful section of Four Mile Run that turned into a raging rapid near Shirlington.\nElsewhere in Arlington, gusty winds brought down trees and power lines.\nA brief period of sleet, meanwhile, made its way through the area around midnight. There was no noticeable accumulation in Arlington.\nNumerous reports of downed power lines, toppled trees, dislodged traffic signs and blowing debris are coming in.\nAmong the reports we’re following right now:\n- Downed power line on Four Mile Run Drive at George Mason Drive. Traffic is being diverted. Dominion is on the scene.\n- Large tree down at 3700 North Harrison Street\n- Awnings dislodged and glass broken at 3100 Clarendon Boulevard\n- Compromised roof at 1300 South Arlington Ridge Road\n- Updated at 5:05 pm. — Large tree down at 17th Street and North Utah Street\n- Updated at 5:05 pm. — Wires down at 23rd Street North and George Mason Drive\n- Updated at 5:05 pm. — Tree down at George Mason Drive and Four Mile Run Drive\n- Updated at 5:05 pm. — Dominion is reporting 1,368 customers without power in Arlington\n- Updated at 5:10 pm. — Wires down at 18th Street and South Edgewood Street\nHigh winds have blown off part of the roof of the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles building at 4150 South Four Mile Run Drive.\nFirefighters report that a large section of the building’s metal roof blew off. The building has been evacuated. No injuries are reported.\nA building inspector has been requested at the scene.\nWe took a few photos around Arlington this afternoon, before the really strong winds started blowing. The contrast between the blue skies and the quick-moving rain storms that passed through the area was quite striking.\nForecasters are warning of high winds that will be blowing into our area tomorrow morning and afternoon.\nThe winds come less than a week after Saturday’s wind storm, which knocked down large trees and power lines.\nHIGH WIND WATCH NOW IN EFFECT FROM FRIDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING…\nTHE HIGH WIND WATCH IS NOW IN EFFECT FROM FRIDAY AFTERNOON THROUGH FRIDAY EVENING.\n* TIMING… FRIDAY 11 AM TO 7 PM.\n* WINDS… WEST-NORTHWEST 20 TO 30 MPH WITH GUSTS UP TO 60 MPH POSSIBLE.\n* IMPACT… BE PREPARED FOR THE POSSIBILITY OF POWER OUTAGES… AND DOWNED TREES AND LARGE BRANCHES.

CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST FORECASTS.\n(Updated at 4:00 p.m.) A large tree has fallen and damaged a home on the 3800 block of North Vernon Street, in the Old Glebe neighborhood.\nThe falling tree took utility lines down with it. Dominion Power has shut down power to the lines and has a crew on the scene.\nA number of incidents of downed trees and power lines have been reported around Arlington today as a result of the high winds.\nThe National Weather Service has issued a Fire Weather Watch and a High Wind Watch for tomorrow. Today’s warm weather will give way to colder, windy weather tomorrow. Gusts could reach as high as 60 miles per hour, forecasters say.\nHIGH WIND WATCH IN EFFECT FROM LATE TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING…\nTHE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE IN BALTIMORE MD/WASHINGTON HAS ISSUED A HIGH WIND WATCH…WHICH IS IN EFFECT FROM LATE TONIGHT THROUGH SATURDAY EVENING.\n* TIMING…HIGH WINDS WILL BEGIN THIS EVENING…WITH THE STRONGEST WINDS BETWEEN 5 AM AND 7 PM.\n* WINDS…GUSTS UP TO 60 MPH WILL BE POSSIBLE…ESPECIALLY ACROSS THE RIDGES.\nA HIGH WIND WATCH MEANS THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR A HAZARDOUS HIGH WIND EVENT. SUSTAINED WINDS OF AT LEAST 40 MPH…OR GUSTS OF 58 MPH OR STRONGER MAY OCCUR. CONTINUE TO MONITOR THE LATEST FORECASTS.\nTogether with low humidity, the high winds will produce weather favorable for the rapid spread of brush fires.\nHang On To Your Hat — A wind advisory is in effect until 9:00 tonight for the entire metro area. The National Weather Service says to expect sustained winds of 25 to 30 miles per hour, with gusts of 45 to 50 miles per hour. So far, the wind has not caused any major problems in Arlington. Dominion is reporting only 17 customers without power in Arlington as of 6:30 a.m.\nLocal Snowstorm a Bust, But Travelers Stranded — As it turns out, the snowstorm that was supposed to hit D.C. yesterday left barely a dusting. But at Reagan National Airport this morning, there is evidence of what could have been. The storm ended up blanketing northeastern cities with up to a foot and a half of snow, causing major disruptions to air, rail and bus travel. Many travelers who were trying to fly from Reagan National to Philly, New York or Boston instead spent the night at the airport. New York’s airports are not expected to reopen until this afternoon.\nArlington Residents Complain About Snow — The Dec. 16 “storm” that dropped about two inches of snow on Arlington prompted a slew of complaints to the county’s new online snow issue reporting form. Check out quotes from four of the complaints, courtesy of TBD.\nRosslyn Commons Groundbreaking Set — The groundbreaking for 1510 and 1530 Clarendon Boulevard, also known as Rosslyn Commons, has been scheduled for the morning of Tuesday, Jan. 25. Developer JBG sent an email last week asking local leaders to “save the date.”\nFlickr pool photo by Chris Rief\nSo far, so good, at least for Arlington. There are no reports of significant damage or widespread power outages in the county as a result of this morning’s nasty weather.\nAs of 7:20 a.m., Dominion is reporting 115 customers without power in Arlington.\nCompare that to the nearly 10,000 Dominion customers without power in Fairfax County.\nUpdate at 9:00 a.m. — There are now a mere 8 power outages in Arlington County.\nThis morning’s heavy rain and high winds have prompted the National Weather Service to issue a number of alerts and advisories for Arlington and the surrounding area:\nTHE NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE HAS ISSUED TORNADO WATCH 762 IN EFFECT UNTIL 10 AM EST THIS MORNING FOR THE FOLLOWING AREAS\nABERDEEN… ALEXANDRIA… ANNAPOLIS… ARLINGTON… BALTIMORE… BEL AIR… BERRYVILLE… CHANTILLY… CHARLES TOWNN… CHESAPEAKE BEACH… COLUMBIA… CULPEPER… EDGEWOOD… FAIRFAX… FALLS CHURCH… FALLSTON… FREDERICK… FRONT ROYAL… GAITHERSBURG… HAGERSTOWN… HAVRE DE GRACE… JOPPATOWNE… LAUREL… LEESBURG… LURAY… MADISON… MANASSAS… MANASSAS PARK… MARTINSBURG… MCLEAN… RESTON… ST MARYS… STANARDSVILLE… STERLING… TOWSON… WALDORF… WARRENTON… WASHINGTON… WASHINGTON… WESTMINSTER… WINCHESTER… WINCHESTER AND WOODBRIDGE.\n… WIND ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 AM EST THIS MORNING…\nA WIND ADVISORY REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 11 AM EST THIS MORNING.\n* TIMING… GUSTS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH MID MORNING. GUSTS WILL SUBSIDE BEFORE NOON.\n* WINDS… SOUTHEASTERLY WIND GUSTS OF 45-50 MPH.\nA WIND ADVISORY MEANS THAT WIND GUSTS IN EXCESS OF 45 MPH ARE EXPECTED. WINDS THIS STRONG CAN MAKE DRIVING DIFFICULT… ESPECIALLY FOR HIGH PROFILE VEHICLES. USE EXTRA CAUTION.\nSpecial Weather Statement:\n… HEAVY RAIN TO AFFECT THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA… ARLINGTON… MONTGOMERY… PRINCE GEORGES… CALVERT… STAFFORD… LOUDOUN… PRINCE WILLIAM/MANASSAS/MANASSAS PARK… CHARLES AND FAIRFAX COUNTIES…\nAN AREA OF RAIN WITH EMBEDDED VERY HEAVY DOWNPOURS WILL MOVE OVER THE WASHINGTON METROPOLITAN AREA DURING THE MORNING COMMUTE. RAINFALL RATES OF UP TO 1 INCH PER HOUR WILL SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE VISIBILITY AND WILL CAUSE PONDING OF WATER ON ROADWAYS AND OTHER LOW LYING AREAS. MOTORISTS ARE URGED TO USE CAUTION.\nFlash Flood Watch:\n… FLASH FLOOD WATCH REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 1 PM EST THIS AFTERNOON…\nTHE FLASH FLOOD WATCH CONTINUES FOR\n* PORTIONS OF MARYLAND… THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND VIRGINIA.\n* UNTIL 1 PM EST THIS AFTERNOON\n* A COLD FRONT WILL MOVE THROUGH THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION THIS MORNING. RAIN AMOUNTS OF ONE TO TWO INCHES ARE EXPECTED. THIS AMOUNT OF RAIN MAY CAUSE SMALL STREAMS AND CREEKS TO RISE OUT OF THEIR BANKS.\nA FLASH FLOOD WATCH MEANS THAT CONDITIONS MAY DEVELOP THAT LEAD TO FLASH FLOODING. FLASH FLOODING IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION.\nMONITOR LATER FORECASTS AND BE PREPARED TO TAKE ACTION SHOULD FLASH FLOOD WARNINGS BE ISSUED.\nSeeing the storm damage in D.C. and Montgomery County this morning brought back memories of the storms that ripped through Arlington and Alexandria one week ago.\nOne storm-related incident in particular still has people talking a week later — the parking lot full of cars with blown-out windows at the Shirlington Bus Station.\nHow exactly did it happen? Nobody seems to know for sure. But one reader recently sent us this dramatic account of what she saw as the storm rolled through Shirlington.\nJust as FYI – it was closer to 20 vehicles that had the glass blown out of their vehicles, not 6. And the storm took out their back glass, side windows and in some cases even the windshields… Working in the ANSER bldg across from the bus stop – employees watched as the trash cans and paper vending machines were swirled up as high as the 5th floor – then dropped like lead weights back to the ground.\nThe straight line winds in Shirlington were at around 70 miles per hour.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Hurricane Francis is far enough away for me to be safe, but close enough for me to get lots of wind and rain. We had wind gusts up to about 80 miles per hour, which is quite impressive. I don't have power, but thanks to the laptop and my cellphone, I can get this out. Also thanks to the power being out, I am being forced to eat all the ice cream before it melts.\nIf you have watched any television, you have probably seen some of the news coverage of hurricane Francis. Unless you have been through one, it can be difficult to imagine what the winds are like. For this week's experiment, we will investigate hurricane winds a bit. You will need:\n- a car\n- a driver\n- the driver's permission to try the experiment\nFirst, lets take a look at wind speed and hurricanes. As the storm begins to build, it is called a tropical wave. If it begins to spin (due to the Coriolis Effect we talked about recently), then it becomes a tropical depression. To move up from tropical depression to tropical storm, the maximum winds have to be at least 40 miles per hour. At that point, the storm gets a name (like Charlie or Frances.)\nThe next step is at 74 miles per hour, where the tropical storm becomes a hurricane, but it does not stop there. From 74 to 95 miles per hour, it is a category 1 hurricane. Category 2 ranges from 96 to 110 miles per hour. Category 3 goes from 111 to 130, and category 4 from 131 to 155 miles per hour. If the maximum wind speed is more than 155 miles per hour, it is a category 5 hurricane.\nThose are some pretty strong winds, but hard to imagine if you have not been through them. Some museums have hurricane simulations with giant fans, which are a lot of fun. If your local museum does not have one, you can still come close to experiencing hurricane force winds.\nGet in the car and find a road where the speed limit is 40 miles per hour. With someone else driving (and the driver's permission), roll down a window. Now I am going to tell you to do something that will cause my mother to call and scold me. You are going to stick your hand out the window!\nBe careful. Do not stick your head out. If a bug hits your hand at 40 miles per hour, it will hurt, but if it hit your face at that speed it could be serious. Do not stick anything else out, such as feet, paper cups or little brothers. Even accidental littering is against the law.\nFeel the force of the wind against your hand. What you are feeling is pretty much the same as the minimum speed winds for a tropical storm. The difference is that in this case, the air is standing still and you are moving. Imagine trying to walk with that much wind blowing on you.\nMany interstate highways have 70 mile per hour speed limits, so with the driver's permission, you could experience near hurricane speed winds. After feeling that, it is much easier to see how the wind can peel the roof off of a house or topple a tree.\nI had better get back to eating that ice cream before the power comes back on.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The high just reached 50F and north winds blew 20-25 with gusts to 30 all afternoon. No precipitation was recorded on the Central Coast. The breeze faded just at sunset so lots of folks flocked to the beaches and headlands for the magnificent view. Clear skies reigned overnight and the mercury dropped to freezing. At daybreak, the sky was crystal blue but we were dealt a frosty hand because the Jack got played again. Hey, Jack, the discard pile is to the north.\nPast 24 Hours High/Low…\nLincoln City: 54F/38F\nDepoe Bay: 50F/32F\nForecast: A busy weekend is in store for Central Coast beaches, and part of that is due to the weather. Sunny skies, a high of 55F and lighter north winds will offer added incentive for volunteers to help with today’s beach cleanup; it is also the start of Whale Watch Week; and thousands of visitors will be arriving for Spring Break vacations. Clear and chilly again tonight, low about 35F. Tomorrow, look for more sunshine with light winds and a high near 60F. Outlook is for even warmer on Monday, a solid 60F or a little above, with mostly sunny skies and light southerlies. Then, everything changes. Beginning Monday night we expect to see clouds rapidly thickening and rain developing. More rain on Tuesday, followed by showers and unsettled wet weather through the rest of the week. Breezy at times with highs of 55F and lows of 45F through the extended period.\nTravel: At 8:00am, Highways 18, 20 and 34 are open through the Coast Range, well below freezing, and have mostly bare pavement with icy patches through mid-morning. Highway 101 along the Central Coast is dry with icy spots, especially on the headlands. Valley destinations have mostly bare pavement with temps right at freezing and some patches of frost. In the Cascades, highways are about 20F with spots of ice. The freezing level is 4,000 feet rising to 5,000 feet today. Carry chains or traction tires. Outlook for weekend travelers is to expect heavier than normal traffic on Highways 18, 20, 34 and 101 as sunshine and several events draw a gaggle of visitors to the Central Coast. On the pavement itself, Coast Range, Valley and Cascades highways should be dry with spots of ice nights and mornings through tomorrow.\nCascades Snow Pack: Currently 116”, no change since yesterday, or 73% of normal.\nSki Report – New Snow Inches/Total Inches/Condition…\nHoodoo 0/48/Packed Powder\nWillamette Pass 0/26/Machine Groomed\nMt Bachelor 0/106/Machine Groomed\nMt Hood Meadows 0/110/Packed Powder\nMt Hood Ski Bowl 0/26/Machine Groomed\nTimberline Lodge 0/73/Powder\nMarine: Conditions are showing some improvement this morning with NNE winds down to 10-15 knots and seas holding at 6 feet.

Tomorrow may be the best shot for small craft fishermen to get a line wet as NE winds drop to 5-10 knots and seas stay about 7 feet. Outlook is for the breeze to switch to southerly on Monday, 5-10 knots early then building to 15-20 gusting 25 by late afternoon with a westerly swell of 4 feet. Monday night a strong front arrives with gale force gusts up to 35 knots, seas rising to 5-7 feet. Tuesday and Wednesday, SW winds 15-25 knots and wave heights building to 12-15 feet.

In Alabama, the weather system dumped more than 2 inches of rain in areas that had been parched by months of choking drought.\nMultiple Possible Tornadoes\nThe National Weather Service was assessing damage from multiple possible tornadoes across the region. At least five hit Alabama, and three more struck southern Tennessee, and one confirmed in Louisiana and at least four in Mississippi, forecasters said.\nA possible tornado was spotted on the ground Wednesday a few miles from Atlanta, and flights were briefly delayed at the city's main airport, but no major damage occurred.\nThree people were killed and one person critically injured in an Alabama mobile home after an apparent twister hit tiny Rosalie, about 115 miles northeast of Birmingham, said Jackson County Chief Deputy Rocky Harnen.\nA suspected tornado was responsible for the death of a husband and wife in southern Tennessee's Polk County, while an unknown number of others were injured, said Tennessee Emergency Management Agency spokesman Dean Flener. No details were immediately available.\nThe Daily Post-Athenian in Athens, Tennessee, reported the Meigs County sheriff's office said lightning is suspected as the cause of two deaths in a mobile home fire.\nThe same storm apparently hit a closed day care center in the nearby community of Ider, injuring seven people, including three children who had left their mobile home to seek shelter, said Anthony Clifton, DeKalb County emergency management director.\nAlabama Gov. Robert Bentley issued a state of emergency because of the storms.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Dan Best said about how county fire departments were put on standby before the storm's arrival.\nMembers of Van Buren, Dick Johnson, Posey, Cory and Jackson Township volunteer fire departments joined the Clay County Sheriff's Department, Indiana State Police, area town officials and state/county highway workers to hit the roads in a grid pattern to check for damage and report downed trees and utility poles, but most of the heavy damage was reported in an area between County Road 600 North and CR 800 N.\nA section of State Road 59 between CR 600 N and CR 700 N was closed for more than an hour to northbound traffic while officials attempted to clear the road of storm debris and live wires down from broken utility poles.\nA section of Harmony Road (CR 200 E) between CR 700 N and CR 800 N was closed because at least two utility poles were snapped off at the tops and live power wires were on the ground.\nTraffic was also diverted by officials around two other areas of heavy storm damage from trees, one near CR 200 E and CR 750 N and the other at CR 800 N and CR 200 W.\nAccording to the Duke Energy website, more than 36,000 Indiana residents experienced power outages during the storm, with 1,200 reported in southern Clay County.\nAlthough some Clay County residents experiencing power outages were Parke County REMC customers, The Brazil Times were unable to contact the company before press time to confirm the number.\nA portion of the westbound lane of United States 40 was closed near the Staunton flashers due to a vehicle sliding off the road into a ditch. No injuries were reported.\nBy 8 p.m., temperatures dropped and snow began to fall across the county as officials continued to clear roads and respond to new weather related emergency calls.\nShortly after 8:30 p.m., county emergency response personnel were dispatched to a vehicle slide off near the 17-mile marker on Interstate 70. No injuries were reported.\n\"All the rain is freezing and it is incredibly slick,\" Best told The Brazil Times in a cell phone interview at the scene of the accident.\n\"We have numerous slide offs. It's really bad out here.\"\nAs the temperature continued to drop into the lower teens, causing wind chills to drop as low as minus 10 degrees throughout the night, Walker said today's forecast would be mostly sunny but much colder.\n\"Temperatures are expected to be in the 20s, but it will still be breezy with low wind chills,\" Walker said, then confirmed another storm is expected to hit parts of Indiana and Illinois later this week.\n\"A major winter storm will move our way late Thursday and last into the first half of Friday,\"?Walker added.\nDepending on the path of the storm, Walker expects the storm to have a decent amount of snowfall, with the possibility of some ice mixed in with snow.\n\"Snowfall could be heavy but it's too early to give amounts,\" he said. \"The snow should end by Friday afternoon, but it will be enough that travelers can expect it to be difficult to travel.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Researchers have discovered that, when the Sun was right behind Pluto, the haze in Pluto's nitrogen atmosphere differs in brightness, generating a flaring effect that almost make it seems like the surface of the Pluto is rippling. Researchers know this because NASA's New Horizons probe was fortunate enough to witness this very scene when it made its flyby of the dwarf planet last year, and it caught this rippling effect in the animation you can see below.\nSo what's really on here? According to NASA, the coatings of haze that make up Pluto's mainly nitrogen-based atmosphere can contrast in brightness liable on illumination and your viewpoint. But these layers uphold their whole structure in the atmosphere, that’s what make this more interesting. So what's happening behind this crazy light show?\nNew Horizons scientists believe that rippling effect could be cause by gravity waves – these gravity waves are not THE gravitational waves that you probably have been hearing about during the past few months. These gravity waves are also known as buoyancy waves, it is an atmospheric phenomenon that happens on Earth and Mars (and now, apparently, Pluto). They effect from airflow over mountains, NASA explains:\n\"As the name implies, atmospheric gravity waves form when buoyancy pushes air up, and gravity pulls it back down.\"\nThe backlit images that create the animation you see here were caught by New Horizons' Long Range Reconnaissance Imager (LORRI) as the spacecraft left Pluto on 14 July 2015. According to the gravity waves – if that certainly is what's triggering the flaring to take place – make the brightness in the haze vary by about 30 percent.\nBut regardless of the fluctuating form, the haze itself inhabits the same space and keeps its height – spreading to an altitude of nearly 200 kilometres (120 miles) above Pluto's surface.\nAlthough there's still a lot we have to learn about Pluto's atmosphere, we're finding out more all the time, all because of New Horizons. New Horizons is still transferring data back to Earth, even though the flyby occurred several months ago.\nAnd the findings like these will keep on coming, too, as the observations are projected to take a full 16 months to transfer in total. LORRI principal investigator Andy Cheng, from the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, said:\n\"Pluto is simply amazing. When I first saw these images and the haze structures that they reveal, I knew we had a new clue to the nature of Pluto's hazes. The fact that we don't see the haze layers moving up or down will be important to future modelling efforts.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In addition to their weather reporting function, these vessels aided in search and rescue operations, supported transatlantic flights, acted as research platforms for oceanographers, monitored marine pollution, and aided weather forecasting both by weather forecasters and within computerized Atmospheric models.\nThe idea of a stationary weather ship was proposed as early as 1921 by Météo-France to help support shipping and the coming of transatlantic aviation. They were used during World War II but had no means of defense, which led to the loss of several ships and many lives. On the whole, the establishment of weather ships proved to be so useful during World War II for Europe and North America that the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) established a global network of weather ships in 1948, with 13 to be supplied by Canada, the United States, and Europe. This number was eventually negotiated down to nine. The agreement of the use of weather ships by the international community ended in 1985.\nWeather ship observations proved to be helpful in wind and wave studies, as commercial shipping tended to avoid weather systems for safety reasons, whereas the weather ships did not. They were also helpful in monitoring storms at sea, such as tropical cyclones. Beginning in the 1970s, their role was largely superseded by weather buoys because of the ships' significant cost. The removal of a weather ship became a negative factor in forecasts leading up to the Great Storm of 1987. The last weather ship was Polarfront, known as weather station M (\"Mike\"), which was removed from operation on January 1, 2010. Weather observations from ships continue from a fleet of voluntary merchant vessels in routine commercial operation.\nThe primary purpose of an ocean weather vessel was to take surface and upper air weather measurements, and report them via radio at the synoptic hours of 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). Weather ships also reported observations from merchant vessels, which were reported by radio back to their country of origin using a code based on the 16-kilometer (9.9 mi) square in the ocean within which the ship was located. The vessels were involved in search and rescue operations involving aircraft and other ships. The vessels themselves had search radar and could activate a homing beacon to guide lost aircraft towards the ships' known locations. Each ship's homing beacon used a distinctly different frequency. In addition, the ships provided a platform where scientific and oceanographic research could be conducted. The role of aircraft support gradually changed after 1975, as jet aircraft began using cross polar routes. By 1982, the ocean weather vessel role had changed too, and the ships were used to support short range weather forecasting, in numerical weather prediction computer programs which forecast weather conditions several days ahead, for climatological studies, marine forecasting, and oceanography, as well as monitoring pollution out at sea. At the same time, the transmission of the weather data using Morse code was replaced by a system using telex-over-radio.\nLetter Name Latitude\nA Able/Alpha 62° -33° B Baker/Bravo 56° 30\" -51° C Charlie 52° 45\" -35° 30\" D Dog/Delta 44° -41° E Easy/Echo 35° -48° F Fox 35° -40° G George 46° -29° H Hotel 38° -71° I India 59° -19° J Juliet/Juliett 52° 30\" -20° K Kilo 45° -16° L Lima 57° -20° M Mike 66° 2° N Nan/November 30° -140° O Oboe 40° -142° P Peter/Papa 50° -145° Q Quebec 43° -167° R Romeo 47° -17° S Sugar 48° -162° T Tango 29° -135° U Uncle 27° 40\" -145° V Victor 34° 164° X Extra 39° 153°\nThe director of France's meteorological service, Météo-France, proposed the idea of a stationary weather ship in 1921 in order to aid shipping and the coming of transatlantic flights. Another early proposal for weather ships occurred in connection with aviation in August 1927, when the aircraft designer Grover Loening stated that \"weather stations along the ocean coupled with the development of the seaplane to have an equally long range, would result in regular ocean flights within ten years.\" During 1936 and 1937, the British Meteorological Office (Met Office) installed a meteorologist aboard a North Atlantic cargo steamer to take special surface weather observations and release pilot balloons to measure the winds aloft at the synoptic hours of 0000, 0600, 1200, and 1800 UTC. In 1938 and 1939, France established a merchant ship as the first stationary weather ship, which took surface observations and launched radiosondes to measure weather conditions aloft.\nStarting in 1939, United States Coast Guard vessels were being used as weather ships to protect transatlantic air commerce, as a response to the crash of a Pan American World Airways aircraft during a transpacific flight in 1938. The Atlantic Weather Observation Service was authorized by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt on January 25, 1940. The Germans began to use weather ships in the summer of 1940. However, three of their four ships had been sunk by November 23, which led to the use of fishing vessels for the German weather ship fleet. Their weather ships were out to sea for three to five weeks at a time and German weather observations were enciphered using Enigma machines. By February 1941, five 327-foot (100 m) United States Coast Guard cutters were used in weather patrol, usually deployed for three weeks at a time, then sent back to port for ten days. As World War II continued, the cutters were needed for the war effort and by August 1942, six cargo vessels had replaced them. The ships were defenseless, which led to the loss of the USCGC Muskeget (WAG-48) with 121 aboard on September 9, 1942. In 1943, the United States Weather Bureau recognized their observations as \"indispensable\" during the war effort.\nThe flying of fighter planes between North America, Greenland, and Iceland led to the deployment of two more weather ships in 1943 and 1944. Great Britain established one of their own 80 kilometres (50 mi) off their west coast. By May 1945, frigates were used across the Pacific for similar operations. Weather Bureau personnel stationed on weather ships were asked voluntarily to accept the assignment. In addition to surface weather observations, the weather ships would launch radiosondes and release pilot balloons, or PIBALs, to determine weather conditions aloft. However, after the war ended, the ships were withdrawn from service, which led to a loss of upper air weather observations over the oceans. Due to its value, operations resumed after World War II as a result of an international agreement made in September 1946, which stated that no fewer than 13 ocean weather stations would be maintained by the Coast Guard, with five others maintained by Great Britain and two by Brazil.\nHistory of the fleet\nThe establishment of weather ships proved to be so useful during World War II that the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) had established a global network of 13 weather ships by 1948, with seven operated by the United States, one operated jointly by the United States and Canada, two supplied by the United Kingdom, one maintained by France, one a joint venture by the Netherlands and Belgium, and one shared by the United Kingdom, Norway, and Sweden. The United Kingdom used Royal Navy corvettes to operate their two stations, and staffed crews of 53 Met Office personnel. The ships were out at sea for 27 days, and in port for 15 days. Their first ship was deployed on July 31, 1947.\nDuring 1949, the Weather Bureau planned to increase the number of United States Coast Guard weather ships in the Atlantic from five at the beginning of the year to eight by its end. Weather Bureau employees aboard the vessels worked 40 to 63 hours per week. Weather ship G (\"George\") was dropped from the network on July 1, 1949, and Navy weather ship \"Bird Dog\" ceased operations on August 1, 1949. In the Atlantic, weather vessel F (\"Fox\") was discontinued on September 3, 1949, and there was a change in location for ships D (\"Dog\") and E (\"Easy\") at the same time. Navy weather ship J (\"Jig\") in the north-central Pacific ocean was placed out of service on October 1, 1949. The original international agreement for a 13 ship minimum was later amended downward. In 1949, the minimum number of weather ships operated by the United States was decreased to ten, and in 1954 the figure was lowered again to nine, both changes being made for economic reasons. Weather vessel O (\"Oboe\") entered the Pacific portion of the network on December 19, 1949. Also in the Pacific, weather ship A (\"Able\") was renamed ship P (\"Peter\") and moved 200 miles (320 km) to the east-northeast in December 1949, while weather vessel F (\"Fox\") was renamed N (\"Nan\").\nWeather ship B (\"Baker\"), which had been jointly operated by Canada and the United States, became solely a United States venture on July 1, 1950. The Netherlands and the United States began to jointly operate weather ship A (\"Able\") in the Atlantic on July 22, 1950. The Korean War led to the discontinuing of weather vessel O (\"Oboe\") on July 31, 1950 in the Pacific, and ship S (\"Sugar\") was established on September 10, 1950. Weather ship P's (\"Peter\") operations were taken over by Canada on December 1, 1950, which allowed the Coast Guard to begin operating station U (\"Uncle\") 2,000 kilometres (1,200 mi) west of northern Baja California on December 12, 1950. As a result of these changes, ship N (\"Nan\") was moved 400 kilometres (250 mi) to the southeast on December 10, 1950.\nResponsibility for weather ship V (\"Victor\") transferred from the United States Navy to the United States Coast Guard and Weather Bureau on September 30, 1951. On March 20, 1952, Vessels N (\"November\") and U (\"Uncle\") were moved 32 kilometres (20 mi) to 48 kilometres (30 mi) to the south to lie under airplane paths between the western United States coast and Honolulu, Hawaii. Weather vessel Q (\"Quebec\") began operation in the north-central Pacific on April 6, 1952, while in the western Atlantic, the British corvettes used as weather ships were replaced by newer Castle-class frigates between 1958 and 1961.\nIn 1963, the entire fleet won the Flight Safety Foundation award for their distinguished service to aviation. In 1965, there were a total of 21 vessels in the weather ship network. Nine were from the United States, four from the United Kingdom, three from France, two from the Netherlands, two from Norway, and one from Canada. In addition to the routine hourly weather observations and upper air flights four times a day, two Russian ships in the northern and central Pacific ocean sent meteorological rockets up to a height of 80 kilometres (50 mi). For a time, there was a Dutch weather ship stationed in the Indian Ocean. The network left the Southern Hemisphere mainly uncovered. South Africa maintained a weather ship near latitude 40° South, longitude 10° East between September 1969 and March 1974.\nWhen compared to the cost of unmanned weather buoys, weather ships became expensive, and weather buoys began to replace United States weather ships in the 1970s. Across the northern Atlantic, the number of weather ships dwindled over the years. The original nine ships in the region had fallen to eight after ocean vessel C (\"Charlie\") was discontinued by the United States in December 1973. In 1974, the Coast Guard announced plans to terminate all United States stations, and the last United States weather ship was replaced by a newly-developed weather buoy in 1977.\nA new international agreement for ocean weather vessels was reached through the World Meteorological Organization in 1975, which eliminated Ships I (India) and J (Juliett), and left ships M (\"Mike\"), R (\"Romeo\"), C (\"Charlie\"), and L (\"Lima\") across the northern Atlantic, with the four remaining ships in operation through 1983. Two of the British frigates were refurbished, as there was no funding available for new weather ships. Their other two ships were retired, as one of the British run stations was eliminated in the international agreement. In July 1975, the Soviet Union began to maintain weather ship C (\"Charlie\"), which it would operate through the remainder of the 1970s and 1980s. The last two British frigates were retired from ocean weather service by January 11, 1982, but the international agreement for weather ships was continued through 1985.\nBecause of high operating costs and budget issues, weather ship R (\"Romeo\") was recalled from the Bay of Biscay before the deployment of a weather buoy for the region. This recall was blamed for the minimal warning given in advance of the Great Storm of 1987, when wind speeds of up to 149 kilometres per hour (93 mph) caused extensive damage to areas of southern England and northern France. The last weather ship was Polarfront, known as weather station M (\"Mike\") at 66°N, 02°E, run by the Norwegian Meteorological Institute. Polarfront was withdrawn operation on January 1, 2010. Despite the loss of designated weather ships, weather observations from ships continue from a fleet of voluntary merchant vessels in routine commercial operation, whose number has decreased since 1985.\nUse in research\nBeginning in 1951, British ocean weather vessels began oceanographic research, such as monitoring plankton, casting of drift bottles, and sampling seawater. In July of 1952, as part of a research project on birds by Cambridge University, twenty shearwaters were taken more than 161 kilometres (100 mi) offshore in British weather ships, before being released to see how quickly they would return back to their nests, which were more than 720 kilometres (450 mi) away on Skokholm Island. 18 of the twenty returned, the first in just 36 hours. During 1954, British weather ocean vessels began to measure sea surface temperature gradients and monitored ocean waves. In 1960, weather ships proved to be helpful in ship design through a series of recordings made on paper tape which evaluated wave height, pitch, and roll. They were also useful in wind and wave studies, as they did not avoid weather systems like merchant ships tended to and were considered a valuable resource.\nIn 1962, British weather vessels measured sea temperature and salinity values from the surface down to 3,000 metres (9,800 ft) as part of their duties. Upper air soundings launched from weather ship E (\"Echo\") were of great utility in determining the cyclone phase of Hurricane Dorothy in 1966. During 1971, British weather ships sampled the upper 500 metres (1,600 ft) of the ocean to investigate plankton distribution by depth. In 1972, the Joint Air-Sea Interaction Experiment (JASIN) utilized special observations from weather ships for their research. More recently, in support of climate research, 20 years of data from the ocean vessel P (\"Papa\") was compared to nearby voluntary weather observations from mobile ships within the International Comprehensive Ocean-Atmosphere Data Set to check for biases in mobile ship observations over that time frame.\n- ^ a b Magazines, Hearst (June 1948). \"Britain's First Weather Ship\".

But it might not be for the reason you suspect.\nThe Historic Triangle is low on rainfall at four inches below average for August and September. Although meteorologists say extended periods of dry weather are normal for the region in the fall, forecasters predict above normal rainfall and temperatures in October, which usually average around 60 degrees.\nChris Fisher, a meteorologist at the National Weather Service Wakefield office, said the region’s dry spells are most often due to prolonged periods of high pressure.\n“You’re running well below normal for the month ... For us it’s usually prolonged periods of high pressure, (we) don’t have any weather systems moving through to give us any rain,” Fisher said. “Right now they’re showing the greatest probability for next month of above-normal precipitation. They are showing above normal temperatures for October, as well.”\nAlthough people may enjoy the blue skies, it can take a toll on the area’s landscaping and foliage. This time of year the city does its seeding, fertilizing and turf maintenance. Will Fidler, Williamsburg’s landscape superintendent, said the city has a watering tank and may increase water in certain areas, but the trees in the area are used to a dry spell this time of year.\nMatthew Trowbridge, the College of William and Mary’s arborist, said the best way to make sure your trees stay healthy during a drought or dry conditions, is to water at night.\n“The best time to water a tree, especially a large tree, is at night because that water is saturating into the soil and it’s cooler than it was four hours ago when the sun was beating on it,” Trowbridge said. \"When the sunlight comes out those leaves need water and it’s right there, available.\"\nDespite the dry weather, this time of year and around March, are the best times to plant trees Trowbridge said. But to make sure they have the most success, look for trees that are native to Virginia, such as White oaks, Flowering dogwoods and Eastern redbuds.\n“All trees in the world are affected by weather, if it’s too dry, too wet. But if you’re going to get a tree or a shrub, and you’re at the nursery, one of the main questions you want to remember to ask is where was this plant propagated?” Trowbridge said. “You want to have a tree that’s used to the amount of sunlight it gets every day, the overall weather patterns.”\nAnd in preparation for harsher temperatures and storms that hit Virginia in the winter, it’s a good time to prune trees with overextended limbs that could fall or cause the tree to fall.\n“When you have a limb that’s going really far out, extending ... you want to get some of the weight off,” Trowbridge said. “So when there’s wet snow or heavy rain or ice, it’s not going to snap this whole guy off. You always, whenever you want to prune a tree, cut too little than too much.”\nToo dry to burn?\nEven though the weather has been drier than usual, you can still have a bonfire.\n>> The City of Williamsburg has regulations on outside burning between February and April, Fire Marshal Carry Middlebrook said. The current dry spell shouldn’t affect anything.\n>> In James City County, permits are issued by the Fire Department for bonfires, open burning of debris waste and agricultural/forest management burns, within specific guidelines.

And minimal southern hemi swell was starting to show at south facing breaks. Leftover swell was hitting Hawaii from a small cutoff low that produced 22-23 ft seas northwest of Hawaii on Fri (4/26). Another gale developed approaching the Northern Dateline region on Sun-Mon (4/30) producing up to 26 ft seas aimed east.Not much to result from it. And possibly another gale to track off Japan on Thurs (5/2) producing 23 ft seas aimed east but of no interest. In the Southern Hemisphere a weak gale formed in the Central Pacific Fri-Mon (4/22) producing seas to barely 30 ft seas lifting northeast. That swell is lapping into California now. On Wed-Fri (5/3) a stronger gale is to develop south of New Zealand with seas to 43 ft lifting gently east-northeast with secondary fetch producing 34-36 ft seas pushing east across the South Pacific through Sun (5/5). And maybe a weaker on to follow.\nSee all the details below...\nSHORT- TERM FORECAST\nCurrent marine weather and wave analysis plus forecast conditions for the next 72 hours\nOn Tuesday (4/30) the jetstream was mostly consolidated tracking east off Japan forming a trough halfway to the dateline and being fed by up to 140 kts winds offering some support for gale development there. East of there the jet split with some energy tracking north up over the Bering Sea with most energy falling into a small pinched trough in the Central Gulf offering support for low pressure development but dissipating from there. Given the change in season the jet looks unlikely to provide much energy from here forward. Over the next 72 hours the West Pacific trough is to build while moving to the dateline later Wed (5/1) being fed by 120-130 kts winds building to 150 kts on Thurs (5/2) while starting to pinch off offering some support for gale development. East of there the jet is to lift hard north pushing up into Alaska offering only support for high pressure development in the Gulf of Alaska. Beyond 72 hours the northern branch is to build but lifting north generally tracking off Japan lifting northeast and continuing east just south of the Aleutians Fri (5/3) through Tues (5/7) offering no support for gale development. We will be starting to focus on the southern hemisphere jetstream for future forecasts.\nOn Tuesday (4/30) small swell from a gale that developed northwest of Hawaii was fading in the Islands (see Hawaiian Gale below).\nOver the next 72 hours no swell producing weather systems are forecast.\nOn Thursday AM (4/25) a low pressure system was starting to build just east of the dateline producing a tiny area of 25-30 kt south winds targeting the Aleutians. In the evening fetch is to wrap into the gales northwest quadrant building to 35 kts over a small area starting to fall south with 18-20 ft seas over tiny area at 45N 177W falling south targeting the West Pacific. Fetch is fall south on Fri AM (4/26) at 30 kts with 22 ft seas at 40N 17W targeting Hawaii well. This system to dissipate in the evening with 25-30 kt north winds and seas fading from 18 ft at 37.5N 172W targeting Hawaii. Low odds of small 12 sec period swell resulting for Hawaii.\nOahu: Residuals fading Tues AM (4/30) fading from 3.3 ft @ 10 secs (3.0 ft). Swell Direction: 325 degrees\nWest Dateline Gale\nA small gale developed mid-way between the Kuril's and the dateline on Sun AM (4/28) with 35 kt west winds and seas building from 23 ft at 41.5N 163E aimed east. In the evening 35 kt west winds were lifting northeast with 25 ft seas at 44.5N 170E aimed east. On Mon AM (4/29) the gale held together with 30 kt west winds still lifting northeast over the North Dateline region with seas 22 ft at 47.5N 171.5E aimed east. In the evening the gale is to move over the Aleutians on the North Dateline region and fade with barely 30 kt west winds and seas fading from 21 ft just south of the Central Aleutians at 51N 177E aimed east. Nothing else to follow. Maybe some small swell is to be pushing east.\nOahu: Expect swell arrival on Thurs (5/2) building to 2.4 ft @ 13-14 secs (3.0 ft). Swell continues on Fri (5/3) at 2.5 ft @ 12 secs (3.0 ft). Swell fading on Sat (5/4) dropping from 2.5 ft @ 11 secs (2.5 ft). Swell Direction: 315 degrees\nNorth Pacific Animations: Jetstream - Surface Pressure/Wind - Sea Height - Surf Height\nNo tropical weather systems of interest are forecast.\nCalifornia Nearshore Forecast\nOn Tues (4/30) north winds are 20-25 kts early over all of North CA still producing windswell with south winds 5 kts for all of Central CA. Theoretically it's supposed to snow over the Tahoe region in the afternoon to early evening. Wednesday (5/1) the gradient is to collapse with north winds fading from 20 kts over North CA early and dropping from there with north winds over Central CA at 5-10 kts with windswell gone. Low pressure is to be circulating 600 nmiles west of Central CA cutting the legs out of high pressure to the north. Thursday (5/2) the low is to approaching Central CA with a light northwest flow 15 kts along the North CA coast and 5-10 kts for Central CA. Friday (5/3) the low is to be hold off Central CA with northwest winds 10-15 kts early fading to 5-10 kts later. Saturday (5/4) weak high pressure is to build offshore as the low moves south over open ocean and fades with north winds 15-20 kts for Cape Mendocino and north winds 10 kts south of the to Pt Conception. No windswell expected From Thursday onward. Sunday (5/5) light winds from the northwest 5-10 kts are forecast for all of North and Central CA. No change on Monday (5/6). Tuesday (5/7) high pressure returns with north winds 20-25 kts for North CA early and building with windswell redeveloping for North and Central CA.\n2-3 inches of snow for Tahoe on Tues (4/30) and 1-2 inchs for Mammoth on Sun (5/5). Not believable.\nSnow Models: http://www.stormsurf.com/mdls/menu_snow.html (Scroll down for resort specific forecasts).\nA weak gale traversed the Central South Pacific pushing swell to the northeast (see Central South Pacific Gale below). Another gale developed in the Southeast Pacific behind that producing swell pushing north (see Southeast Pacific Gale below).\nOver the next 72 hours the models suggest a gale is to develop just south of New Zealand on Thurs AM (5/2) with 40-45 kt southwest winds pushing east-northeast with seas building from 30 ft at 58S 177E aimed east-northeast. In the evening fetch is to build to 50 kts from the southwest moving towards the Central South Pacific with 40 ft seas over a tiny area and 38 ft seas over a broader area at 58S 174.5W aimed east-northeast. On Fri AM (5/3) a somewhat consolidated fetch of 45-50 kt southwest winds are to be tracking northeast with seas 44 ft over a small area aimed northeast at 53.5S 165W. In the evening fetch is to fade from 45 kts in pockets with seas 39 ft at 49S 152W aimed northeast. On Sat AM (5/4) south fetch is to be at 45 kts aimed north with seas 37 ft at 51.5S 142W aimed northeast. In the evening the gale is to be in the far Southeast Pacific with 45 kts south winds over a small area and 37 ft seas at 51.5S 128W aimed northeast. On Sun AM (5/5) 40 kt south fetch is to be on the eastern edge of the Southern CA swell window with 35 ft seas at 54S 121.5W aimed northeast. By evening this system is to be gone. Something to monitor.\nCentral South Pacific Gale\nA gale started developing southeast of New Zealand Thurs PM (4/18) with 30-35 kt southwest winds building and lifting northeast with seas building to 24 ft at 61S 170W. On Fri AM (4/19) fetch was lifting hard northeast with a broader fetch of 35 kt southwest winds and seas 24 ft at 55N 158W aimed northeast. 35 kt southwest fetch continued in the evening with 23 ft seas at 52S 149W aimed northeast. So far no real swell was being produced that could survive the journey to the North Pacific.\nBut on Sat AM (4/20) winds were 30-35 kts over a broad area with seas 26 ft over a tiny area at 53S 149W aimed east-northeast. In the evening 40 kt mostly westerly fetch was tracking east with seas 27 ft at 54.5S 156W aimed east-northeast. On Sun AM (4/21) fetch was fading from 30-35 kts over a moderate sized area aimed east with 27 ft seas at 51S 152W aimed east-northeast. In the evening fetch and seas faded.\nBut on Sun PM (4/21) ar new fetch of 40 kt southwest winds were building southeast of New Zealand with seas building from 25 ft at 56S 168W aimed northeast. On Mon AM (4/22) 40 kt west winds were lifting northeast with seas building to 30 ft at 52S 149W aimed east-northeast. The gale was tracking fast east to southeast with winds 45 kts aimed east with seas 28 ft over a tiny area falling southeast at 54S 131W. The gale to continue falling southeast from there and no longer of any interest. Something to monitor. But to manage expectations, minimal swell is likely to radiate northeast mainly for California.\nSouthern CA: Swell solid on Tues (4/30) to 2.5 ft @ 15-16 secs (3.5-4.0 ft). Swell holding on Wed (5/1) at 2.8 ft @ 15-16 secs (4.0-4.5 ft with sets to 5.5 ft). Swell fading some on Thurs (5/2) from 2.5 ft @ 14-15 secs (3.5 ft). Swell Direction 200 degrees\nNorth CA: Swell solid on Tues (4/30) to 1.9 ft @ 16 secs (3.0-3.5 ft). Swell holding on Wed (5/1) at 1.8 ft @ 16 secs (2.5-3.0 ft with sets to 3.5 ft). Swell fading some on Thurs (5/2) from 2.2 ft @ 14-15 secs (3.0 ft). Swell Direction 198 degrees\nSoutheast Pacific Gale\nA gale developed in the Southeast Pacific on Sat PM (4/27) with 45 kt south winds and seas 29 ft at 51.5S 133.5W aimed north. Fetch faded Sun AM (4/28) from 35 kts tracking north with seas fading from 28 ft at 48S 130W aimed north. In the evening the gale continued tracking north but weak. On Mon AM (4/29) the gale redeveloped with 40 kt south winds and seas building to 28 ft over a tiny area at 37S 126W aimed north. Fetch held stationary in the evening with seas 30 ft over a tiny area aimed north at 37S 126W. Fetch faded from there. Small but decent swell to arrive in CA given this storms relative close/north position.\nSouthern CA: Expect swell arrival on Sun (5/5) building to 2.3 ft @ 17 secs later(4.0 ft). Swell solid on Mon (5/6) building to 3.1 ft @ 15-16 secs (4.5-5.0 ft). Swell holding on Tues (5/7) at 3.0 ft @ 14-15 secs (4.0-4.5 ft). Swell Direction: 192 degrees\nNorth CA: expect swell arrival on Sun (5/5) building to 2.0 ft @ 18 secs late (3.5 ft). Swell solid on Mon (5/6) building to 3.0 ft @ 16 secs later (4.8 ft).

In the evening fetch is to fade from 40-45 kts aimed east with 34 ft seas at 63S 172E aimed east. On Sun AM (5/5) 35-40 kt southwest fetch is to be tracking east with seas 31 ft at 60S 180W aimed east-northeast. In the evening southwest fetch to be fading in coverage at 35-40 kts with seas 35 ft at 58.5W 169W aimed east-northeast. The gale is to be fading Mon AM (5/6) with fetch dropping to 30 kts and seas fading from 31 ft at 55S 165W aimed northeast. This system is to dissipate from there.\nKelvin Wave #3 Holding Below EPac\nThe Madden Julian Oscillation is a periodic weather cycle that tracks east along the equator circumnavigating the globe. It is characterized in it's Inactive Phase by enhanced trade winds and dry weather over the part of the equator it is in control of, and in it's Active Phase by slackening if not an outright reversing trade winds while enhancing precipitation. The oscillation occurs in roughly 20-30 day cycles (Inactive for 20-30 days, then Active for 20-30 days) over any single location on the planet, though most noticeable in the Pacific. During the Active Phase in the Pacific the MJO tends to support the formation of stronger and longer lasting gales resulting in enhanced potential for the formation of swell producing storms. Prolonged and consecutive Active MJO Phases in the Pacific help support the formation of El Nino. During the Inactive Phase the jet stream tends to split resulting in high pressure and less potential for swell producing storm development. Wind anomalies in the Kelvin Wave Generation Area (KWGA) are key for understanding what Phase the MJO is in over the Pacific. The KWGA is located on the equator from 135E-170W and 5 degs north and south (or on the equator from New Guinea east to the dateline). West wind anomalies in the KWGA suggest the Active Phase of the MJO in the Pacific, and east anomalies suggests the Inactive Phase. In turn the Active Phase strengthens and the Inactive Phase weakens the jetstream, which in turn enhances or dampens storm production respectively in the Pacific.The paragraphs below analyze the state of the MJO in the Pacific and provide forecasts for MJO activity (which directly relate to the potential for swell production).\nOverview: La Nina started developing in early 2016, but westward displaced and generally weak. And by March 2017, it was gone with suspicious warming developing along South America and over the Galapagos to a point south of Hawaii. By May the atmosphere returned to a neutral configuration but then in July east anomalies started building in the KWGA and did not stop, with cold water upwelling over the the Nino1.2 and 3.4 areas, indicative of La Nina. A double dip La Nina was in control and continued through the Winter of 2017-2018. But warming started building along the South and Central American coast in early March 2018 associated with two upwelling Kelvin Waves, and continued trying to build over equatorial waters over the Summer and Fall, but not enough to declare El Nino and not coupled with the atmosphere. As of January 2019, those warm waters were fading, but then started building some late in Feb associated with another Kelvin Wave (#3).\nLONG-RANGE PACIFIC STORM AND SWELL GENERATION POTENTIAL FORECAST\nSummer 2019 = 5.5 (California & Hawaii)\nRating based on a 1-10 scale: 1 being the lowest (small and infrequent surf conditions), 5 being normal/average, and 10 being extraordinary (frequent events of large, long period swells)\nRationale: Assuming the PDO has moved to the warm phase and that weak borderline El Nino condition continue , and assuming a weak ocean-atmospheric coupling holds and ocean temperature anomalies in Nino3.4 hold in the +0.8 deg range, there is good probability for slightly enhanced storm production in the South Pacific during the Northern Hemisphere Summer time months. There is slightly increased intensity in number of storm days and storm intensity, resulting in slightly increased odds for larger than normal swell, with increased duration and higher than normal period. This should be significantly better than the past 2 Summer seasons.\nKWGA/Equatorial Surface Wind Analysis & Short-term Forecast (KWGA - Kelvin Wave Generation Area - The area 5 degrees north and south of the equator from 170W to 135E)\nAnalysis (TAO Buoys): As of (4/29) 5 day average winds were from the east over the Eastern equatorial Pacific to the dateline, then continuing east over the KWGA. Anomalies were light east over the East equatorial Pacific turning neutral over the Central Pacific and then moderate east over the KWGA.\n1 Week Forecast (GFS Model): On (4/30) moderate east anomalies were controlling the KWGA and the whole of the equatorial Pacific. But west anomalies were building in the far West Pacific. The forecast is for east anomalies easing east and almost out of the KWGA moving over the entirety of the equatorial Central and Eastern Pacific through the end of the model run on 5/7. West anomalies are to be building east from the far west KWGA filling 65% of the KWGA at the end of the model run. There is to continue to be a marked decrease in support for storm development into about 5/2, then storm production potential is to start building in the West Pacific.\nKelvin Wave Generation Area wind monitoring model: West and East\nLonger Range MJO/WWB Projections:\nOLR Models: (4/29) A moderate Inactive MJO pattern was over the KWGA. The statistic model indicates a moderate Inactive MJO signal is to be fading fast at day 5 of the model run then quickly disintegrating with the Active Phase building into the West Pacific at day 10 and filling the West Pacific at day 15. The dynamic model indicates almost the exact same thing but with the footprint of the Active Phase smaller than the statistic model. The 2 models are generally in sync.\nPhase Diagrams 2 week forecast (ECMF and GEFS): (4/30) The statistical model depicts the Active Phase of the MJO was moderate in the West Maritime Continent, and is forecast to push east into the West Pacific through day 15 at weak strength. The GEFS model suggests the Active Phase moderate in strength and pushing east, while fading to weak or less status in the Western Pacific at day 15.\n40 day Upper Level Model (assumed to be a statistical model): (4/30) This model depicts a solid Active Phase pushing into the West Pacific today tracking east into Central America on 5/22. A modest Inactive Phase is to develop in the West Pacific on 5/17 pushing east into Central America at the end of the model run on 6/6. A weak MJO signal is to build over the West Pacific at that time.\n4 Week CFS Model (850 mb wind): (4/29) This model depicts a modest Inactive Phase fading in the core of the KWGA today with east anomalies in control. East anomalies and the Inactive Phase are to track east and out of the KWGA by 5/3 while moderate west anomalies start developing in the West KWGA pushing east. Stronger west anomalies associated with the Active Phase of the MJO are to build into the Central KWGA 5/6 tracking east and moving almost east of the KWGA at the end of the model run on 5/27. At that time weak east anomalies are to be developing in the far West KWGA. There is no active support for storm development for the next 5 days, but that to change once the Active Phase takes over and holding through 5/20.\n3 Month CFS Model (850 mb wind): (4/30) This model depicts a weak Inactive MJO fading in the KWGA today with modest east anomalies in control holding till 5/2. After that weak to modest west anomalies are to develop in the core of the KWGA as the Active Phase builds 5/3 through 5/25 with west anomalies holding if not building to moderate strength near 5/16. After that weak west anomalies are to hold even though a moderate Inactive Phase of the MJO is to set up 5/24-7/7. Another modest Active Phase is to develop 7/9 holding through the end of the model run on 7/28 with stronger west anomalies forecast. The low pass filter indicates a low pressure bias with 2 contour lines is fully in control of the KWGA centered on the dateline reaching east to California but not inland and forecast to hold steady position wise to the end of the model run on 7/25. The second contour line was to fade on 7/19. This model indicates that a tendency towards El Nino was previously in control during the Fall of 2018, but has been steadily fading since then and is to continue a slow decline for the foreseeable future, but not turning to La Nina. Basically we are moving to a ENSO neutral pattern bias slightly towards El Nino.\nCFSv2 3 month forecast for 850 mb winds, MJO, Rossby etc - Alternate link\nSubsurface Waters Temps\nTAO Array: (4/30) Today in the far West Pacific water temps are 29 deg temps reaching east to 170W but retracting some at the surface. The 28 deg isotherm line had retrograded west to 160W mid-Nov into late Feb. But it made a major push east starting 3/16 from 150W to 140W on 3/20, and to 130W on 4/10 and to 121W on 4/14, and 4/22 pushing into Ecuador, then back to 115W on 4/25 and holding today. It appears Kelvin Wave #3 was erupting in the East Pacific. The 24 deg isotherm was pushing into Ecuador 30 meters down. Anomaly wise, gentle warm anomalies are filling the entire subsurface Pacific at +1 degs or greater from the surface to 150 meters down. Embedded in that flow is a pocket of warmer water centered in the East Pacific at 120W at +3 degs (Kelvin Wave #3) almost reaching Ecuador and west to 139W. This Kelvin Wave is the warmest of any Kelvin Wave so far since La Nina faded into early 2018 and is to adding warmth moving into 2019. The hi-res GODAS animation posted 4/23 indicates warm water from Kelvin Wave #3 was filling the equatorial Pacific from 155E eastward, weaker in the West Pacific at +2 degs and stronger over the East Pacific at +3 degs from 140W to Ecuador (attributable to a Westerly Wind Burst 12/30-1/16 and another 2/12-2/24). And there was a hint of more warm water dribbling from the Maritime Continent into the far West Pacific at 135E falling into the pre-existing warm pool near 160E. There is a river of very warm water traversing the width of the equatorial Pacific. The GODAS animation appears to be 1 week behind the TAO data but also is more detailed and accurately modeled.\nSea Level Anomalies: (4/23) Positive anomalies were gone from the interior Maritime Continent with weak negative anomalies there now. Positive anomalies were tracking east from 160E pushing over the dateline to a point east of the Galapagos (110W) but pretty unfocused at 0-5 cms above normal. And pockets of neutral heights were building on the equator at 160W and 100W indicating the density of the warm pool was fading.\nSurface Water Temps: The more warm water in the equatorial East Pacific means more storm production in the North Pacific during winter months (roughly speaking). Cold water in that area has a dampening effect. Regardless of what the atmospheric models and surface winds suggest, actual water temperatures are a ground-truth indicator of what is occurring in the ocean. All data is from blended infrared and microwave sensors.\nHi-res Nino1.2 & 3.4: (4/29) The latest images (1.2 3.4) indicate temps were modestly warm straddling 20 degrees north and south of the equator from just west of the Galapagos near 100W and continuing west to the dateline and stronger warming from the Galapagos to 100W right on the equator. These temps continue fading compared to days past mainly off and along the Central and South America Coast. Cool water previously along the coast of Peru And Ecuador was collapsing. There is some weak indication of a El Nino but nothing strong.\nHi-res 7 day Trend (4/29): A weak warming trend was over the equatorial Central Pacific with a pocket of stronger warming near the Galapagos. Weak cooling water as along the coast of Peru.\nHi-res Overview: (4/29) Warmer than normal water was from just off Peru up to Central America west over the Galapagos 20 degrees north and south of the equator continuing west of there to the dateline. It was holding compared to days past.\nNino1.2 Daily CDAS Index Temps: (4/30) Today's temps were steady at +0.129. Overall trend is falling in spurts for the last 3 months except for a recent uptick in mid-April.\nNino 3.4 Daily CDAS Index Temps: (4/30) Today temps were steadily trickling down at +0.512 today. Temps have been generally steady the last 6 weeks.\nCFSV2 Forecast for Nino3.4 SST Anomalies\nSST Anomaly Projections\nCFSv2 Uncorrected Data (4/30) The model indicates temps were +0.90 degs through April forecast building to +1.35 degrees in early June then fading slowly to +1.30 degs on July 1, fading slightly through the Fall then holding at +1.05 degs in Sept and Oct then down to +0.80 in Dec 1 and steady into Jan. A weak El Nino like pattern is to hold if not build into July associated with the eruption of Kelvin Wave #3, then slowly fading through the Fall and Winter of 2019/20 with no more Kelvin Waves forecast. A multiyear warming event is in progress as suggested by this model.\nIRI Consensus Plume: The March 2019 Plume depicts temps are at +0.65 degs today, and are to hold in the +0.75 range into July, then holding at +0.75 through Nov 2019. See chart here - link.\nAtmospheric Coupling (Indicating the presence of El Nino in the atmosphere driven by the ocean):\nSouthern Oscillation Index (SOI) (negative is good, positive bad) (4/30): The daily index was negative today at -1.66 and has been generally negative the previous 21 days, then positive for 7 days before that, and negative for 57 days before that (Feb 4-4/2 other than 3/23 & 3/24). The 30 day average was rising some at -2.43 suggesting a fading Active MJO. The 90 day average was rising some at -7.59, suggesting a neutral ENSO pattern biased towards El Nino (for now).\nESPI Index (like SOI but based on satellite confirmed precipitation. Positive and/or rising is good, negative and/or falling is bad): (4/23) The index was neutral at -0.01 on 2/14 but has been rising ever since and pushed up to +0.99 on 3/3 (the highest its been in years), then fell some but started rising again and was up to +1.10 today. It is approaching El Nino territory but still indicted mostly ENSO neutral conditions.\nPacific Decadal Oscillation: The PDO is weakly positive, even though La Nina is in play.\nPer NOAAs index recent values: June 2017 +0.21, July -0.50, Aug -0.62, Sept -0.25, Oct -0.61, Nov -0.45, Dec -0.13, Jan 2018 +0.29, Feb -0.19, Mar -0.61, April -0.89, May -0.69, June -0.85, July -0.09, Aug -0.43, Sept -0.46, Oct -0.75, Nov -0.78, Dec -0.12, Jan -0.23, Feb -0.55 This continues to look like the warm phase of the PDO, even with La Nina, because the warm PDO appears to be dampening the effects of La Nina. No consistently solid negative readings have occurred since Feb 2014\nThe Washington/JISAO index (Jan-Dec): June 2017 +0.79, July +0.10, Aug +0.09, Sept +0.32, Oct +0.05, Nov +0.15, Dec +0.50, Jan +0.70. Feb +0.37, Mar -0.05, April +0.11, May +0.11, June -0.04, July +0.11, Aug +0.18, Sept +0.09. No real negative readings have occurred since Dec 2013\nThe PDO turned from a 16 year negative run (Jan 98-Feb 2014) in early 2014 and has been positive ever since (other than a few months of negative readings in Fall 2016, the result of a turn towards La Nina). Looking at the long term record, it is premature to conclude that we have in-fact turned from the negative phase (La Nina 'like') to the positive phase (El Nino 'like'), but the data strongly suggests that could be a possibility. By the time it is confirmed (4-5 years out), we will be well into it.\nSee imagery in the ENSO Powertool\nExternal Reference Material: El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), Madden Julian Oscillation (MJO), Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), Southern Oscillation Index (SOI), Kelvin Wave\nStormsurf Video Surf Forecast for the week starting Sunday (4/28):\nFor automatic notification of forecast updates, subscribe to the\nStormsurf001 YouTube channel - just click the 'Subscribe' button below\nPowerline Productions New Movie Preimer - Next Level - Friday (11/9) at 7 PM.

Both real-time and integrated sampling methods were used, and clinic activities were recorded. Measurements were compared to guidelines and standards, and interactions between pollutant levels, emissions, and clinic activities were investigated using correlations, trend analyses, and a ventilation assessment.\nResults: Comfort parameters were found to be within recommended values, with the exception of relative humidity, which was low but not unusual for the winter season investigated. Ventilation rates were within accepted guidelines. Integrated sampling showed that concentrations of VOCs were well below guidelines. However, PM2.5 levels exceeded ambient standards (by a factor of 2 to 6) throughout the building. Continuous trending allowed identification of peak levels, but correlations of clinic activities with measured concentrations were inconclusive. The results suggested that levels of air contaminants in dental clinics (with the exception of PM) are within guideline levels. With the recirculating ventilation systems found in most clinics and offices, particulate contaminants may rapidly disperse throughout a building. Improved capture, exhaust and filtration would decrease indoor PM concentrations. If contaminants are pathologic, the ramifications for practitioners may be considerable, and some specialists may be particularly at risk.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

According to CNN, Hurricane Irma has caused fatalities, left islands in ruins and is expected to be a category 4 hurricane by the time it reaches the United States.\nFlorida Gov. Rick Scott stated that he had never seen anything like Hurricane Irma, and encouraged people to evacuate the state once given the news, according to The Washington Post.\n“This is a deadly storm and our state has never seen anything like it,” Scott said at a news conference in Sarasota, according to The Washington Post.\nThe hurricane is now expected to hit the west coast of Florida, targeting the area along Tampa and Fort Myers, according to CNN.\nAccording to Philip Klotzbach, a research scientist for CSU’s Department of Atmospheric Science, hurricanes originate as thunderstorm complexes in the mountains of Ethiopia. Some of these complexes travel across the ocean and intensify into hurricanes. Even though most of these complexes end up dying off if the conditions are right, natural phenomenons like Hurricane Harvey and Hurricane Irma still occur.\nAccording to Klotzbach, in order for one of these thunderstorm complexes to become a hurricane, three conditions must exist: warm ocean water, weak vertical wind shear or a small difference in the direction of wind in the upper and lower atmosphere, and moisture in the air.\n“These three ingredients aren’t always present,” Klotzbach said. “But, for Hurricane Irma, they’re all there. (Irma) is one of the most intense storms we’ve ever seen in the Atlantic of all time.”\nAccording to Klotzbach, the force hurricanes produce poses a great danger to humans.\n“Hurricanes are so powerful, it makes humans seem puny,” Klotzbach said. “It’s a monster entity. The amount of energy and mass it processes is mind boggling. It’s not something humans can match.”\nCollegian reporter Julia Trowbridge can be reached at email@example.com or on twitter @chapin_jules.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Stay off the roads until this has passed.\"\nRain totals in southern New York could approach records, the governor said.\nThe flood warning, issued by the National Weather Service, also covered Nassau and Westchester Counties and swaths of southwestern Connecticut, including Stamford and Norwalk.\nMore than 5 million people live in the area put under the warning, the National Weather Service said.\nA tornado watch was also in place on parts of New England, including suburban Boston. Winds of 40 per hour were gusting through eastern Long Island, according to the National Weather Service.\nMore than 360 flights were canceled or delayed at Kennedy Airport, and more than 240 were canceled or delayed at LaGuardia Airport, according to a flight tracking company.\nNew York gets pounded with more historic rainfall\n\"It seems that Mother Nature is not quite done with us yet,\" Hochul said Sunday, a week after historic rainfall drenched the Hudson Valley, killing one person.\nThe latest rainstorm was pummeling areas of southern New York. Suffolk County on Long Island recorded an intense 5 inches of rain in about two hours, the governor said.\nAs the system blew through the state, about 23,000 customers lost power, mostly north of the city, according to Hochul's office. By Sunday afternoon, some 9,300 families lacked power, Hochul said.\nNew York City's emergency services were girding for flash flooding. The city said it was deploying drones to notify people of flood threats in low-lying areas of southeast Queens.\n\"Do not drive or walk where water covers the roadway,\" said an alert from the city's emergency notification system. \"Move to higher ground, or, if in a basement, move to a higher floor.\"\nAround 1:00 PM, Brooklyn's Park Slope had been doused by 2 inches of rain, Central Park and LaGuardia Airport had logged at least 1 inch each and the Fordham Section of the Bronx had seen about 1 inch.\nMore than 5.9 inches had fallen on Bay Shore on Long Island, and more than 4 inches had hit Danbury, Connecticut, the service reported.\nTorrential rains tormented eastern Pennsylvania on Saturday and Sunday.

Henry McMaster has ordered the evacuation of most of the state's coastline as the storm approaches.\nStorm surges were forecast to approach eleven feet in some areas along the North Carolina coast.

The Category 1 hurricane's eyewall was beginning to reach the Carolina coast and the storm was moving with maximum sustained winds of 90 miles (150 kilometers) an hour. It came ashore along a mostly boarded-up, emptied-out stretch of coastline.\nNorth Carolina is the largest tobacco grower and ranks second among USA states in hog inventory and producing broiler chickens. But it was clear that this was really about the water, not the wind.\n\"There is going to be a lot of rain\". By midnight, his rain gauge showed that he'd gotten 9 inches (23 centimeters) of rain since midafternoon. Other communities got well over a foot (30 centimetres). It is expected to move across parts of southeastern North Carolina and eastern SC on Friday and Saturday, then head north over the western Carolinas and central Appalachian Mountains early next week, the NHC said. Forecasters said the torrents could continue for days, touching off disastrous flooding.\nPreparing for the worst, about 9,700 National Guard troops and civilians were deployed with high-water vehicles, helicopters and boats.\nHaving slowed to a crawl, a weakened but still powerful Hurricane Florence finally made landfall near Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina on Friday morning.\n\"On the forecast track, the center of Florence will move further inland across extreme southeastern North Carolina and extreme eastern South Carolina (Friday) and Saturday\", forecasters added.\nThe National Weather Service office in Newport, North Carolina, in a tweet called the storm surge \"catastrophic\". That's enough to fill the Chesapeake Bay or cover the entire state of Texas with almost 4 inches (10 centimetres) of water, he calculated.\nThe weather service later measured a storm surge 10 feet deep in the city.\nOn Friday, coastal streets in the Carolinas flowed with frothy ocean water, and pieces of torn-apart buildings flew through the air. Gusts at the Wilmington International Airport this morning have been measured as high as 105 miles per hour.\n\"WE ARE COMING TO GET YOU\", the tweet said.\nBoat teams including volunteers rescued some 360 residents, including Sadie Marie Holt, 67, who first tried to row out of her neighbourhood during Florence's assault.\n\"We're working as hard as we can\", Hodges says. \"We got thrown into mailboxes, houses, trees\", said Holt, who had stayed at home because of a doctor's appointment that was later cancelled.\nFlorence also blew down trees, including one that went through the roof of Kevin DiLoreto's home in Wilmington.\n\"Honestly, I grew up in Wilmington\".\nSubtropical Storm Joyce forms in north Atlantic\nIt's not clear if the storm is expected to strengthen back into a hurricane after it hits the eastern Caribbean.

While it was on the Earth-facing side of the sun, the sunspot did not produce any coronal mass ejections — hot bursts of material ejected into space at 4 million mph (6.4 million km/h) — which have the potential to damage satellites and power grids. Now the active region has rotated back around to face Earth again, and although the sunspot has shrunk in size, it will likely be disruptive, NASA scientist Holly Gilbert told Space.com during a video interview about the massive sunspot.\n\"This time around, it's more likely to have some coronal mass ejections associated with it, even though the solar flares might be smaller,\" said Gilbert, chief of the Solar Physics Laboratory at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland. \"We have a good idea, based on the structure of that magnetic field and the sunspot, that it's very possible that it will create some midlevel flares.\" [The Biggest Solar Flares of 2014]\nSunspots are blemishlike regions on the sun where magnetic fields become very tightly bundled. The magnetic fields block light and heat from passing through the sunspot region, causing them to appear dark compared to the surrounding area.\nAR 12192 has been renamed AR 12209 now that it is once again on the Earth-facing side of the sun. The sunspot was out of view of the Earth for about two weeks before reappearing. It is still large enough for 10 Earths to fit inside it, Gilbert said. In terms of size, it ranks 33rd largest of 32,908 active regions recorded since 1874, and it's the largest sunspot recorded since 1990.\nThe huge spot released six major solar flares in Earth's direction in October and early November, plus a series of smaller flares, before moving to the side of the sun facing away from Earth. Solar flares can lead to the production of coronal mass ejections, also called CMEs, and Gilbert said it was \"a little strange\" that the major solar flares produced by AR 12192 did not result in any CMEs.\n\"[CMEs] can affect our satellites, our technology; it can cause power grid outage,\" Gilbert said. \"So it's very important for us to understand when they're going to happen and how they're going to impact us here on Earth.\"\nScientists cannot yet predict when a sunspot will produce flares or if those flares will kick up coronal mass ejections. But NASA knows when these flares and CMEs occur, thanks to a fleet of satellite missions that are studying the sun and its effect on the Earth. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, which was designed to study the causes of space weather and how it affects Earth, monitors the sun around the clock.\nAR 12209 will continue to shrink and will eventually disappear, but it could make another trip around the sun before it goes away completely. The sun is currently headed into a phase of minimal solar activity, during which scientists expect fewer active regions to appear.\nFollow Calla Cofield @callacofield.

The words aurora borealis literally mean “dawn of the North”.\nWhen is the best time to see the Northern Lights?\nIn the Arctic, the Northern Lights season runs from the last week in September to the first week in April.\nDuring the late spring and summer months there is continuous daylight, which is why they are not visible.\nDuring the autumn and winter, you are very likely to see the Northern Lights whenever the sky is clear and dark, and they may often be glimpsed through thin or broken cloud.\nThe Northern Lights season runs from the last week in September to the first week in April\nWhere is the best place to view the Northern Lights and why?\nAlthough I do work for other tour companies escorting land-based aurora tours to various locations around the Arctic Circle, including most recently Alaska and Iceland, I always enjoy the cruises with Hurtigruten along the coast of Norway.\nQuite apart from the chance of seeing the Northern Lights (to which I am now somewhat addicted), the coastal scenery is fabulous and ever-changing, the ships are very comfortable, the crews are incredibly professional, friendly and helpful – and the food is superb!\nWhile it is true that the Norwegian coastal weather is unpredictable, it can change very quickly – on occasions in a matter of minutes – I have seen a fierce snowstorm up on deck give way to a beautifully clear, star-studded sky with Northern Lights visible, and all in the space of just 20 minutes!\nUnder normal conditions, the auroral oval lies to the north of Tromso, so the section of the voyage from Tromso to Kirkenes and back is generally the best location for seeing the Lights, but I have seen them as far south as Bergen and quite often once within the Arctic Circle.\nHow long do you recommend staying in the Arctic Circle in order to see the Northern Lights?\nThe longer, the better. Statistics collected in 2015 showed that if a guest stays just one night in the Arctic they have only a 14 per cent chance of seeing the Northern Lights, whereas if they stay for five nights their chances increase to about 90 per cent.\nBut you must be ready to get up whenever the sky is clear – even if that is at 3 o’clock in the morning! Patience and perseverance are vital.\nWhat colours can you see in the Northern Lights?\nThe most common auroral colour is the pale green light produced by excited oxygen atoms between about 100 km and 150 km above the ground.\nAbove 150 km and below 400 km altitude, excited oxygen atoms give out a faint red, almost rose pink coloured light.\nSometimes in twilight conditions, a purplish colour may be seen extending up to altitudes approaching 1,000 km. This is due to excited atoms of nitrogen. Turquoise blue, violet, lilac and deep red auroral emissions may also be produced by atmospheric nitrogen.\nMust there be a lot of spots on the Sun for the Northern Lights to be seen?\nIn the auroral zones, both North and South, there’s something there in terms of visible auroral activity most of the time. Another surprising fact is that sunspots – patches of magnetic intensity that can create solar flares – are not always necessary to produce the particles that cause the aurora.\nCoronal holes – which are holes in the Sun’s outer atmosphere – may blow high-speed particle streams towards the Earth at any time, so you can see the aurora when there are few or no sunspots.\nI have seen many really amazing displays of Northern Lights from within the Arctic Circle, even at times when the Sun has been virtually spotless for many days.\nYou have to be prepared at all times if you want to catch the Northern Lights - even at 3am\nWhat is it with the Northern Lights that particularly fascinates people?\nI think that it is the inherent unpredictability of the aurora that particularly fascinates people, together with the expectation that one might just be lucky enough to witness a truly spectacular display.\nOften, as night falls and the sky is clear and dark, one’s first view of the aurora is nothing more than a faint arc of light, usually to the north, which appears greyish to the naked eye simply because our eyes are not good at seeing colour in low light levels.\nAs the aurora brightens the first hints of colour, usually pale green, may be discerned. Then, if the display becomes more active, bright spots may be seen moving along the arc and rays may be seen shooting upwards into the sky.\nIf the arc ripples and distorts, or if multiple arcs appear, the excitement mounts and there is the expectation of a fine show. The most active parts of an auroral display may last only a few minutes, so one must keep alert.\nIn the grandest outbursts, the aurora may become all-sky, a breath taking, rapidly moving kaleidoscope of colour, perhaps coming together in a magnificent corona almost overhead – the exhilarating climax of the display. No matter how wonderful an aurora one has seen, one always hopes for something better the next time!\nWhat sort of equipment would you recommend?\nWarm, comfortable clothing is absolutely essential for night-time viewing from the deck of the ship, including gloves, thick socks and a hat.\nOther than that, a good pair of binoculars is the only piece of equipment that I would recommend (for both stargazing and daytime viewing), plus a digital camera with a sturdy tripod if one wants to try to get some pictures of the scenery and the Northern lights to take home and show family and friends.\nIt is always important to let your eyes become accustomed to the dark for 10-15 minutes when outside viewing at night. You cannot expect to see the Northern Lights well if you have just come out on deck from the brightly lit interior of the ship. One should always avoid using flash at night or shining bright lights when on deck.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

(AP Photo/ Alaska Volcano Observatory)\nStory: Volcano spewed huge ash plume for 3rd day - The Okmok Caldera on Umnak Island about 60 miles west of the fishing port of Dutch Harbor erupted Saturday and was still in a near state of continuous eruption on Monday.

The explosive eruption Saturday and subsequent shock wave jostled the surrounding cloud-cover. Thermal infrared tracking over the first two days showed the ash plume moving southeast.

Eastern and Northeast points were the hardest hit, as the storm was expected to travel up the East Coast and cause rain and thunderstorms across major population centers.\nSome eastern points were down close to $1.00, with selling widespread from New England into the Marcellus. The overall market decline was more than a dime and market points in the producing regions were down about a nickel.\nFutures echoed the weakness in the cash market and took nearly a double-digit dump as traders anticipated another Thursday inventory report from the Energy Information Administration (EIA) into triple digits and well ahead of historical norms.\nAt the close August had fallen 9.8 cents to $4.357 and September was down 8.8 cents to $4.348. August crude oil shed 86 cents to $104.48/bbl.\nWeather forecasters cited the adverse impact Arthur was expected to have on Fourth of July festivities, but next-day temperatures dropped as much as 10 degrees at some points. “Tropical storm Arthur will travel up the East coast Thursday into Friday, inducing heavy rain and creating rough surf conditions,” said AccuWeather.com meteorologists. “However, the storm is forecast to move out in time for evening fireworks on the Fourth.\n“If the tropical system takes a northeastward turn late in the week, as we suspect, rain and thunderstorms will begin to shift eastward and out to sea Friday afternoon and evening so that the weather improves for fireworks Friday night from Washington, DC, to Philadelphia and New York City,” said AccuWeather.com’s Paul Pastelok.\nHe said “cloudy skies and thunderstorms will hit the New York area late this week. Temperatures will stay consistent in the upper 80s before dropping to the upper 70s on Friday. Surf and tides will gradually ease over the weekend. At the same time, humidity levels will lower as Arthur races toward the Maritimes.”\nTraders see Arthur’s primary impact, besides possible physical and life-threatening damages, as a loss of demand should the storm cause power outages and moderate temperatures at major population centers. At 2 p.m. EDT Wednesday the National Hurricane Center said Tropical Storm Arthur was 110 miles east northeast of Cape Canaveral, FL and was sporting 60 mph winds. It was moving to the north at 7 mph, but “a turn to the north-northeast is expected tonight followed by a turn toward the northeast with an increase in forward speed on Thursday. The center of Arthur is expected to pass east of northeastern Florida tonight and move parallel to the coasts of South and North Carolina during the next 24 to 36 hours.”\nWeatherBELL Analytics’ Joe Bastardi said a modest shift in trajectory to the west could cause major disruptions during the holiday weekend.\n“Like a snowball rolling down a hill, the ramp up may be even quicker than I have it once this gets farther north…There is room for a shift of 30-50 miles northwestward, which is a small error from 2-3 days out in skill score land. This outlines why this is a ‘nightmare’ scenario, …[and] this is not a minimal storm at its closest approach.\n“A 100 mph storm moving from Cape Lookout to Cape Hatteras on the biggest holiday of the summer season would be a major event, trapping people, knocking out power; the after effects will be a real problem. On our [projected] track, it’s a big pain, with hurricane gusts in that area, but the bigger resort areas to the north have less. Keep in mind, the main road on the Outer Banks floods very easily.”\nTemperatures along the Eastern Seaboard were expected to plunge. AccuWeather.com predicted that Boston’s 94 high on Wednesday would drop to 84 Thursday and ease to 78 on Friday. The normal high in Boston in early July is 81. New York City forecast maximum highs on Wednesday of 91, dropping to 87 Thursday and falling to 79 on Friday. The seasonal high in New York City is 83. Baltimore’s 93 Wednesday high was expected to slide to 88 Thursday before dipping to 84 Friday; the normal high this time of year is 87.\nNext-day deliveries to the Algonquin Citygates fell 63 cents to $4.01, and gas at Iroquois Waddington shed a dime to $4.53. On Tennessee Zone 6 200 L, Thursday parcels were seen at $4.01, down 55 cents.\nGas into the Mid-Atlantic fell harder and faster. Thursday parcels on Transco Zone 6 New York dropped 98 cents to $3.14, and deliveries to Tetco M-3 shed a stout 74 cents to $3.11.\nPrices also weakened at Marcellus points. Deliveries to Tennessee Zone 4 Marcellus came in 3 cents lower at $2.85 and gas on Transco Leidy was off 23 cents to $2.98.\nGas in the Midcontinent eased as well. At the NGPL Midcontinent Pool, Thursday gas was seen 2 cents lower at $4.23, and deliveries on ANR SW shed 5 cents to $4.22. On OGT Thursday parcels were seen at $4.11, down 5 cents, and gas on Panhandle Eastern was quoted 6 cents lower at $4.12.\nTraders Thursday may have a double whammy of factors to deal with. Not only will the track of the storm and its potential effect on demand be on traders’ minds, but the inventory report is expected to surpass triple digits again. Last week a stout 110 Bcf was injected and for the week ended July 27, expectations are just a shade less.\nLast year 76 Bcf was injected and the five-year average is for a 68 Bcf build. Analysts at United ICAP forecast an increase of 104 Bcf and at IAF Advisors in Houston estimated build is 102 Bcf. A Reuters poll of 21 traders and analysts revealed a sample average of 100 Bcf with a range of 91 Bcf to 106 Bcf.\nTim Evans of Citi Futures Perspective sees Arthur as having little impact. The storm is “unlikely to have much of an impact even on the demand side of the market,” he said Tuesday. He said “changes to the temperature outlook were mixed compared with Monday, with the week ending July 11 looking somewhat warmer and more supportive, but the week ending July 18 looking cooler than a day ago.”\nEvans forecast a storage build of 106 Bcf in the EIA inventory report, with “estimates we’ve seen so far suggest expectations may be anchoring in the 98-100 Bcf zone. Net injections at that level would generate bearish comparisons with both the date-adjusted 75 Bcf build from a year ago and the 68 Bcf average. Our model generated a larger 106 Bcf refill, which we view as representing at least some risk of a bearish surprise.”\nEvans said “the big picture has been stable, with the year-on-five-year average storage deficit declining as it has for the past ten weeks, confirming that the market is becoming better supplied on a seasonally adjusted basis. As the deficit declines, we see the upside potential for prices shrinking in tandem, and the downside risk expanding. We continue to see a chance that nearby futures could test the $4.00-4.25 range in the weeks ahead.”\n© 2020 Natural Gas Intelligence.

No, there is no ocean on Mars, or even a drop of water to be found, so how is it possible that a spacecraft planning to be launched in a few months will hit the waves later next year and actually go surfing at the Red Planet?\nMAVEN, the Mars Atmospheric and Volatile EvolutioN mission is a new class of orbiting spacecraft that will be capable of skimming or surfing the upper atmosphere of Mars safely without danger of accidentally entering too deeply and burning up. It will sample the upper reaches of the atmosphere to study how the atmosphere is being lost. This type of mission is called an aeronomy mission and has been the desire of scientists since the beginning of Mars exploration. It was never a priority mission because it lacks the public appeal of an orbiter, lander or rover with high-resolution cameras. Now that the exploration of Mars has evolved far enough along where we are \"following the water\" and trying to detect any evidence of life, past or present, sampling the upper atmosphere to see how it evolved and how it could affect life has become important.\nOn September 15, 2008, NASA selected MAVEN, which was part of the now-defunct Mars Scout Program, as the Mars Scout 2013 mission. The three-week long launch window opens on November 18, 2013 and MAVEN is expected to go into orbit around Mars on September 16, 2014. It will go into an elliptical orbit from 3870 miles to only 90 miles above Mars. The mission will cost $485 million, not as expensive as most planetary missions these days, but robust enough to return excellent science. It will focus on collecting data about the atmosphere which includes determining the loss of volatiles such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and water to space from the atmosphere through time; the state of the atmosphere and ionosphere and its interactions with the solar wind; the current escape rates of specific gases to space and the cause; and determining the ratio of stable isotopes in the Martian atmosphere.\nScientists will be able to use the data to extrapolate backwards in time to see how much atmosphere has been lost in the past hundred million years, and possibly as far back as one billion years. It will also be possible to determine which gases are escaping, how much, and how fast. This is especially important as methane has been discovered on Mars and can only originate from two sources, volcanoes or life. There may still be a few barely active volcanic vents on Mars so MAVEN's measurements will aid in determining the actual source of the methane.\nMAVEN will be like a true surfer, feeling the atmospheric waves of Mars as it orbits as low as safely possible sensing density and air pressure as it conducts its samplings and experiments. A lot has been learned from Mars, but there is still much more. So it is time to catch a wave and surf Mars for more adventure and discovery!","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Astronomer Dr Jonathan McDowell of the Harvard–Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts tweeted that the notion was “stupidly incorrect”. He added that the satellite’s orbit “did not pass over Ukraine at all.” Instead, he explained, the track of the satellite was predicted to fall across southern South America, northern Africa, central Asia and China.\nWriting on the Telegram messaging service, Kyiv military administation head Serhiy Popko had noted that a “bright glow” was seen over the city at around 10pm local time (8pm BST).\nFollowing the sightings of the flash, an air raid alert was sounded, but “air defense was not in operation”, Mr Popko said.\nHe added: “According to preliminary information, this phenomenon was the result of a NASA space satellite falling to Earth.”\nSince then, however, the Ukrainian air force has suggested that the glow might have been caused by a meteor burning up in the atmosphere, having ruled out the possibility that it was caused by a Russian air attack.\nThis explanation is supported by the State Space Agency of Ukraine, who said: “The flash was most likely caused by a meteorite falling from the Lyrid Stream.”\nEarlier this week, NASA announced that their Reuven Ramaty High Energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager (RHESSI) spacecraft, which was decommissioned back in 2018, would plunge into the Earth’s atmosphere last night.\nThe US space agency was quick to refute the suggestion that their old satellite was responsible for the glow seen over Kyiv.\nIn fact, they said, at the time of the glow, RHESSI was “still in orbit”.\nAnalysis by the US Department of Defense had predicted a re-entry time of roughly 8.50pm EDT yesterday, give or take an hour — that is, 3.50am local time this morning in Kyiv.\nFollowing Mr Popko’s claims, a NASA spokesperson told the AFP that, at that time, “that reentry [had] not yet occurred. No NASA satellite re-entered the atmosphere earlier today.”\nRHESSI — which was launched into low-Earth orbit from Cape Canaveral back in February 2002 — was designed to study the physics of particle acceleration and energy release in solar flares and coronal mass ejections from the surface of the Sun.\nCoronal mass ejections, NASA explained, “release the energy equivalent of billions of megatons of TNT into the solar atmosphere within minutes and can have effects on Earth, including the disruption of electrical systems.\n“Understanding them has proven challenging. Data from RHESSI provided vital clues.\n“It achieved this with its sole instrument, an imaging spectrometer, which recorded X-rays and gamma rays from the Sun.\n“Before RHESSI, no gamma-ray images nor high-energy X-ray images had been taken of solar flares.”\nA guide on how and where to see April’s hybrid solar eclipse tomorrow[INSIGHT]\nCelestial ‘copycat’ could look just like black hole – if it exists[ANALYSIS]\nSpace-based solar power plants probed ahead of 2025 ‘roll-out'[REPORT]\nOver the course of its mission, RHESSI recorded more than 100,000 X-ray events.\nHowever, it was ultimately decommissioned after 16 years of operation due to difficulties maintaining communications with the satellite.\nEarlier this week, NASA said it “expects most of the spacecraft to burn up as it travels through the atmosphere, but some components are expected to survive reentry.\n“This risk of harm coming to anyone on Earth [was] low — approximately 1 in 2,467.”\nAt present, it is not clear exactly over where on the Earth’s surface RHESSI did break up.\nAs Dr McDowell noted a few hours ago, “RHESSI should have reentered by now. No new info from Space Force yet though.”\nPredicting its reentry path was difficult, he explained, because “It was going at 27,000 km/hr [16,777 miles per hour] — so a two hour uncertainty in reentry time is 54,000 kilometres [33,554 miles] uncertainty in location.”\nSource: Read Full Article","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Roads are snow covered and slippery from Ottawa, Kent and S. Montcalm Counties to the south. The Winter Storm Warning continues for Berrien, Cass and St. Joseph Counties until 4 PM Thurs. and the Winter Weather Advisory for Van Buren, Kalamazoo, Eaton, Ingham, Jackson, Branch and Hillsdale Counties continues until 1 PM Thurs. The Advisory is until noon Thurs. for SE Michigan. Snow reports include 6-8″ across Berrien Co., 4-7″ in Van Buren, Kalamazoo, Cass and St. Joseph Counties and 3″ in Jackson and Calhoun Counties. Here’s snowfall reports from SW Michigan, N. Indiana and NE Illinois (up to 11.3″ at Libertyville IL, 9″ at Arlington Heights and up at Racine WI). Some cold afternoon high temps: -3 S. Ste. Marie, -9 Grand Forks ND, -11 Intl. Falls MN, -18 Flag Is. MN, +2 Waterloo IA, +1 Houghton MI, Minneapolis MN and Sioux Falls SD. It was only in the mid 50s today at Brownsville TX and Mobile AL. It did reach 82 at Miami, Key West, Palm Beach and Ft. Myers Fl, but it was only 65 at Orlando.\nThe models have a tremendous shot of cold coming early next week. The Euro. gives G.R. a surface temp. of -8 Tues. AM with an 18 mph wind and a biting wind chill of -22 (well into “no-recess for kids” territory). For you weather geeks, the Euro. has the 850 mb temp. down to -30.1C n(-22F), the 500 height down to 503 and the 1000-850 mb thickness to 490. AND…the Euro. gives us a lot of snow! It prints out 0.57″ of precip. from Sat. night into Sun. night (that could be 10″ of snow) and another .13″ Mon. into Tues. The GFS only has a couple inches of snow Sat. night. The GFS-plot has -5 Fri. AM, -1F at 1 PM next Monday (with a stiff NW wind), then highs of 12, 12, 16 from Tues. to Thurs. of next week. Temperatures could be 10-12 deg. colder on the other side of the lake in Chicago and Milwaukee and even across N. Indiana where the wind isn’t warmed by Lake Michigan. The GFS gives Green Bay a temp. of +1 with a 16 mph NW wind at kickoff of the Packer/49er game and the temp. falls to -6 by the end of the game. The Euro. is a little slower with the cold and would have the game starting around +12 and then falling to around 6 by the end of the game. From Joe Bastardi: “A severe, perhaps epic, period of cold and storminess is in front of us the next 10 days.” MONSTER 1049 mb Siberian high pressure center moves to S. Ohio. Coldest temperatures slide south of W. Michigan through Indiana and Ohio. Winnipeg, Canada as cold as planet Mars!! GFS forecast average low temperature Jan. 7 for the Continental U.S. is 9.8 degrees!! 13 degrees and snowing for the big outdoor hockey game at the Big House. Intense cold from Siberia to Iowa.\nCheck out the high temp. map from Tuesday. High temps: -16 International Falls MN, -18 Grand Forks ND, -28 at a couple locations east of Lake Winnipeg! That’s industrial strength cold air! I’ll be working – on the air the next 3 evenings (Thurs. to Sat.) and keep coming back to the blog for updates.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The eye of the storm was expected to stay offshore for now.\nPresident Obama signed an emergency disaster declaration for Massachusetts late Thursday. Earlier, Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick declared a state of emergency ahead of the storm after officials extended a hurricane warning to the state's southern coast. He said the declaration will help Massachusetts respond to the storm, expected to pass the area late Friday into Saturday.\nRhode Island Gov. Donald Carcieri made a similar emergency declaration, The Associated Press reported.\nIn neighboring Connecticut, Gov. M. Jodi Rell asked President Obama to issue a pre-landfall declaration of emergency to ensure federal funding help with the storm response.\nAt 11 p.m., tropical storm warnings or watches were extended up the Massachussetts and Maine coasts and into Canada, according to NOAA.\nWatch \"World News with Diane Sawyer\" for the latest on Earl tonight on ABC.\nAs of this evening, the storm was nearly 400 miles wide, tracking northward at 18 mph. With its maximum sustained winds up to 105 miles per hour at around 11 p.m., Earl was not as strong as it was this morning, when 145 mph winds made it a powerful Category 4 storm.\n\"The intensity of the storm is expected to weaken,\" Bill Reid of the National Hurricane Center told ABC's Diane Sawyer tonight on \"World News.\" \"And the winds will start spreading out into a larger and larger area.\"\nThe National Hurricane Center also is watching other storms following Earl, including Fiona and Gaston, which is most likely a concern for next week.\nPresident Obama is \"closely monitoring\" the situation and \"aggressively preparing\" for Earl's potential impact, the White House said today.\nLate Wednesday night, Obama signed a pre-landfall emergency declaration for North Carolina, clearing the way for federal aid to help supplement state and local efforts and resources.\nAlready, the Federal Emergency Management Agency has sent supplies to North Carolina and Massachusetts. Roughly 400,000 liters of water, 300,000 meals, and 54 generators have been dispatched to Ft. Bragg, N.C., while over 200,000 meals and 162,000 liters of water have been sent to Westover, Mass.\nThe American Red Cross has dispatched more than 350 disaster workers to North Carolina, Massachusetts and Rhode Island to staff shelters.\nThis morning, forecasters expanded a hurricane warning to parts of southern Bristol and Plymouth counties in Massachusetts. The forecasters on Wednesday issued the warning for Cape Cod and neighboring islands.\nOn Wednesday, both North Carolina and Virginia declared states of emergency, and officials ordered mandatory evacuations in parts of the state.\nIn Dare County, N.C., officials Wednesday ordered a mandatory evacuation of Hatteras Island. Hyde County Manager David Smitherman ordered an evacuation of Ocracoke Island, N.C., a barrier island accessible only by ferry. Police ordered visitors to leave Atlantic Beach, N.C., and strongly suggested residents leave, as well.\nNorth Carolina Gov. Beverly Perdue urged stragglers to evacuate today.\n\"If you're on the Outer Banks ... you still have time to leave the Banks and you still have time to get to a safer place,\" she said.\nResidents who decided to ride out the storm were today expressing their concerns about potential flooding, flying debris and loss of electricity.\n\"We're pretty scared,\" said Randy Jefferson. \"We're doing what we can to make sure we're fine.\"\nHurricane Earl Brings Rough Surf and Concern\nThe surf was rough in Wrightsville, N.C., and tourists in the area were told to leave.\n\"It seemed like the waves were getting more aggressive and the riptide out was getting much stronger,\" said Mike Hoekema of Indiana.\nIn Atlantic Beach, N.C., Herb and Cindy Utter are not taking any chances.\n\"It was a 75 mph hour wind,\" Herb Utter said. \"I thought the house was gonna blow down.\"\nThe couple moved furniture at their beach house indoors and prepared to head inland with memories of storms past fresh in their minds.\n\"Mother nature is powerful when she wants to be, and we can't beat it,\" Cindy Utter said. \"So pay attention and take precautions.\"\nVirginia Gov. Bob McDonnell also declared a state of emergency Wednesday in anticipation that Earl could shift and head for coastal communities as early as Thursday night.\n\"The current forecast has Hurricane Earl passing east of Virginia later this week. However, a change in the storm's path could bring hazardous weather conditions to eastern Virginia,\" McDonnell said in a prepared statement. \"This declaration is a precautionary move which will allow state agencies to be ready just in case resources are needed.\"\nThe state's coastline already was under a hurricane watch.\nThe emergency designation authorizes various state agencies, from the Virginia National Guard to the Department of Emergency Management, to \"position resources and manpower\" ahead of the storm.\nThe U.S. naval fleet in Norfolk, Va., is remaining in port, but is under orders to be ready to get underway within 24 hours if necessary.\nLong Island and Cape Cod Residents Brace For Earl's Impact\nIn Montauk, on New York's Long Island, residents fear damage to boats and beaches, and local officials are preparing for the worst of Earl's wrath.\n\"I know what's going to happen. This beach is gonna be gone,\" said Bill Wilkinson, East Hampton, N.Y., town supervisor.\nIn the huge Hurricane of 1938, the surge was enough to sever the tip of Long Island and left an estimated 700 dead.\nIn 1991, Hurricane Bob hit the Northeast and killed 18 people.\nIn New Jersey, locals already are battling the sea.\nLifeguards have been forced to save dozens of people.\nTo the north, on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, residents are snapping up batteries. On the island of Nantucket, Mass., it's a frantic battle to save homes.\nOn \"Good Morning America\" Wednesday, FEMA Administrator Craig Fugate advised residents along the East Coast, and particularly those people visiting from out of town, to have a disaster plan in place and heed evacuation orders.\n\"You need to make sure you know where to go when you need to go,\" he said.\nWith Earl approaching so close to the coastline, nearly the entire East Coast is threatened.\nDelta began cancelling flights today, and the storm was expected to force further delays and cancelations for airlines along the coast. Most of the major airlines are waiving fees so passengers at potentially impacted airports can rebook their flights for a later date. Thus far, refunds only are available if a flight has been canceled.\nLinks to specific airlines for more information can be found below.\nABC's Michael S. James, Gerard McNiff, Steve Osunsami, Bradley Blackburn and Lee Ferran contributed to this report.\nResidents can monitor the hurricane's location on the National Hurricane Center's website.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

However, this year they are set to peak on October 21.\nHere is what you need to know about the Orionids, the vibrant autumn meteor shower.\nWhere does the Orionid meteor shower come from?\nThe Orionid meteors seem to always be centered from the constellation Orion, its radiant point. To be specific, NASA has specified that its radiant point is just north of Betelgeuse, the brightest star in the Orion constellation.\nWhenever the constellation is above the horizon, the Orionid meteors can be visible, and the higher in the sky the constellation is, the more meteors you'll be able to see.\nDespite this seeming connection to the Orion constellation, which helped give the meteor shower its name, the Orionids don't actually come from there.\nLike all meteors, the Orionids have their origin from a much larger cosmic body like a comet or asteroid. In particular, the Orionids originate from what is likely the most famous comet of them all, 1P/Halley, otherwise known as Halley's comet.\nThis comet, which passes the Earth every 75-79 years, is famous for being the only comet whose pass can regularly be seen with the naked eye without the need for telescopes.\nBut as Halley passes through the Solar System, the icy comet is effected by the Sun, which causes some icy rock fragments to break off and even pass through the atmosphere of Earth.\nThis, in turn, is what are meteors, specifically a meteor shower.\nHalley's comet is also suspected of creating another meteor shower, the Eta Aquariids, but this is still debated.\nCan the Orionids meteor shower destroy the Earth?\nThe idea of meteors can conjure up images of apocalyptic scenarios where devastation rains down upon the Earth from the unforgiving cosmos.\nBut really, meteor showers are not only 100% safe, they're also absolutely stunning.\nThis is because these meteors are so small that they burn up safely in the atmosphere in bright fiery balls, creating a beautiful and mesmerizing visual display in the night sky.\nThis is aided by how fast the Orionid meteors fly, clocking in at around 66 kilometers per second, or around 237,600 kilometers per hour or over 192 times the speed of sound. That's just two thirds the speed of lightning.\nIn other words, no, the Orionids meteor shower are completely safe and are absolutely beautiful to watch.\nWhere can I see the Orionids meteor shower? Are they visible from Israel?\nIt shouldn't be too hard to see the Orionids on some nights, given that this meteor shower is often cited as one of the most visually stunning of each year.\nHowever, the peak is always the best time to see them because it will be easier to see the most amount in the sky.\nIn Israel, the Orionids won't be visible in the sky before around 10:19 p.m. each night, which is when Orion appears above the horizon, as noted by In-The-Sky.org, which catalogues what's visible in the night sky depending on where you are in the world.\nThe Orionids meteors will likely be visible until Orion disappears, around 6:20 a.m., but they will most probably be at their best visibility at around 5 a.m.\nBecause the peak of the Orionids meteor shower will likely be at around 9 p.m. on October 21, before it is visible in the Israeli night sky, the best time to see it will likely be after Orion rises that night.\nIn general, the best place to view meteor showers in Israel is away from the cities and in areas in the South. In particular, Mitzpe Ramon is usually the favorite due to a lack of urban light interfering.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Where (or even whether) it ranks in the list of all-time greats, however, depends on two things - location and personal interpretation.\nWhat exactly constitutes a great season?\nFor some it is simply about the number of powder days. For most recreational skiers, however, there is a balance to be struck between good snow and plentiful sunshine…\nOverview of the 2012-13 season\nThe 2012-13 season saw something of an east-west split. Snowfalls in the western Alps were above average, way above average in most cases, particularly in France - which comfortably emerged as the snowiest of the four main Alpine countries. Unusually, both the northern and the southern French Alps did extremely well, though it was inevitably the higher profile resorts of the north that grabbed most of the headlines.\nThe western Swiss Alps were also very snowy, but it may come as a surprise to learn that eastern Switzerland and much of Austria saw closer to average snowfalls.\nIt is more difficult to generalise about Italy but, with some exceptions, snowfall was above average without being spectacular. The main anomalies (with significantly above average snowfall) were resorts close to the north-western border with France and parts of the Dolomites.\nA retrospective of the 2012-13 season\nUnlike last year (when there was no snow until the second week of December) the build-up to the 2012-2013 season was far less nerve-racking. Snow started falling early and regularly (particularly in western Italy) and, by late November, most high (and some low) resorts had already established a reasonable base.\nDecember then saw a succession of massive snow-storms barrel into the north-western Alps, which was to set the tone for much of the season. By the middle of the month, snow depths were approaching record levels for the time of year across the western Swiss (e.g. Verbier, Villars) and the northern French Alps (e.g. Avoriaz, La Clusaz - the latter reporting 300cm of settled snow at 2400m on 12 December).\nMost other Alpine regions also reported good pre-Christmas conditions – even if snowfalls weren’t quite as exceptional as they were further west.\nFortunes were more mixed in late December/early January, with wildly fluctuating temperatures and some rain lower down, particularly across the northern Alps. Higher up, however, conditions remained good and, by mid-January, winter was firmly back in control with fresh snow across the board.\nMild Atlantic air returned temporarily around the turn of the month, with further rain for some low resorts. Higher up, however, the snow continued to pile up and a more durable spell of cold was back by the middle of February and remained for the rest of the month.\nMarch was mixed, with strong Foehn winds early in the month bringing snow to the southern Alps (particularly Italy), but a thaw to lower resorts further north, especially Austria. It continued unsettled (though never particularly cold) for the rest of the month, with further snowfalls in most regions, especially at altitude.\nApril was also highly changeable with very little sun and further significant snowfalls – often to quite low levels– especially in the north and west.\nSo where actually got the most snow, and was the winter of 2012-2013 really all it was cracked up to be?\nNote: unless otherwise stated all measurements are at resort level.\nWell, as we have mentioned, snowfall in Austria was actually close to or even slightly below average for many regions. Lech for example recorded 6.51m of snow and nearby Warth-Schröcken 10.2m. These figures may seem high by alpine standards, but are actually slightly below average for this super-snowy corner of the Alps (Warth-Schröcken has the highest average snowfall of any resort in Europe with 10.6m).\nThat said, both resorts – and the Arlberg/Vorarlberg region as a whole - can be considered to have had an excellent season.\nBecause snowfalls were regular yet never disruptive (as they can be in these parts). Lech’s biggest 24hr snowfall in the entire season was just 36cm!\nElsewhere in Austria, high resorts – particularly those in the west such as Obergurgl, Sölden and Ischgl – can also look back on an excellent season. Lower down and further east, conditions were more variable with some excellent skiing at times, spoilt by a number of mild rainy interludes. Resorts such as Kitzbühel and Söll ended up with around 2 to 2.5 m of snow at resort level, 5-6m up top, again slightly below their long term averages.\nAll Italian resorts can look back on a highly satisfactory season overall, even though snowfall didn’t reach the dizzying heights achieved further west. Courmayeur clocked 5.52m at 1700m and 8.93m at 2250m, significantly above average for this relatively dry corner of the Alps. The Dolomites did well too, with 5.16m measured in Arabba, nearly 1.5m above its long term average.\nSwitzerland saw only average or even slightly below average snowfall in the east and south-east – 5.06m for Arosa is slightly below par for what is statistically one of the snowiest major resorts in the country. Further north and west, however, it was a very different story. Zermatt saw 3.9m, not much on the face of it, but above average (approx 3m) for this dry corner of the Alps.\nVillars was also well above average with an impressive 7.44m at 1800m (average 5.5m) and nearby Verbier had its 3rd snowiest winter since records began in 1977 with 8.9m at Les Ruinettes (2200m), over 3m above its seasonal norm.\n\"I think the 2012/13 season was my best so far in Verbier. We started getting epic powder days right back in early December and it just kept coming. Highlights had to be the days when the snow depth meant I was actually getting my head beneath the snow on some turns.\nIt got a little warmer in April with a lot of slides but overall it would be rude to complain. Let's hope 2013/14 brings something similar!\"\nWarren Smith - www.warrensmith-skiacademy.com\nAll of which leaves France as the standout Alpine country of the 2012-13 season and where, to the best of our knowledge, every single resort witnessed above average snowfall.\nIt is sometimes the case that when the northern Alps have a bumper season, the southern Alps have a lean one. But not this year, as exemplified by Isola 2000 near Nice which saw 8.3m of snow, nearly twice its long term average and its 2nd snowiest year on record. Les 2 Alpes also had a vintage season with 10. 75m of snow (at 2600m) its highest ever figure since records began in 1982.\nNot surprisingly, figures for the big Tarentaise resorts were also high, though not record-breaking. Val d’Isère clocked 7.95m, 4th on its all-time list. La Rosière, La Plagne and Arc 2000 were all also just shy of 8m, about 40% above average.\n\"This past season was one of the best for off-piste skiing, maybe even the best I've ever had in Val d'Isère and the northern French Alps in general. For me the quality of snow off-piste was thanks to the sustained cold temperatures through February, March and early April combined with so many snowy days and nights.\nThere were only a few negative points: one was that during the early season the new snow and the cold temperatures combined to make a very unstable snowpack resulting in a number of tragic accidents. Another was that we had virtually no \"spring snow\" off-piste due to the cold snowy weather (smooth spring snow is one of my favourites!). And alas, there were very few sunny days, but you can't have everything!\"\nHenry Schniewind - www.henrysavalanchetalk.com\nFurther north, the figures become more impressive still. Little Les Saisies broke it’s all time record with a whopping 9.6m of snow (nearly twice its average) and La Clusaz’s 9.36m (at 1800m) can only be beaten by the infamous “avalanche year” of 1998/99.\nSo which Alpine ski resort got most snow of all?\nLadies and Gentlemen, the snowiest Alpine resort in 2012-13 was….. Avoriaz with 11.77m at resort level (13.49m at 2200m) some 50% above average and second only to the 1994-95 season.\nFor the western Alps, particularly the north-western Alps it was one of the snowiest (in places THE snowiest) year on record. The snow fell regularly, but seldom in disruptive quantities making it a truly vintage season for powder hounds. However, a lack of sunshine, particularly in spring made things more frustrating for recreational skiers.\nIn this respect, it might be argued that Italy did better for the average holiday-maker, as the weather was more favourable, yet there was still plenty of snow. Eastern Switzerland and Austria had only average (sometimes below average) snowfall, but here the higher resorts at least still enjoyed an excellent season.\nOf all the Alpine regions, the lower Austrian resorts were the least impressive, but even here conditions were par for the course and there was plenty of good skiing to be had.\nOverall then I would rate the 2012-13 season as a vintage, but not necessarily the best ever.\nMemories are short and all things considered I would argue that 2008-09 was a better season. Back then many southern resorts broke records and, although snowfall was closer to average across the northern side of the Alps, it fell at key times and there were fewer fluctuations in temperatures. What’s more the weather was better than in 2012-13, with more sunshine between the storms.\nBest of the rest...\nSnowfall in the Pyrenees was exceptional in 2012-13, with numerous records broken, particularly in the western half of the chain. Baqueira Beret (Spain) clocked an astonishing 14.56m (at 1800m), it’s highest reading since records began in 1964.\nOver in France, Cauterets’ figure was even higher at 15.3m (at 2000m), though resort officials could not confirm if it was the highest ever. Whatever the case, the snow became problematic this year in the French Pyrenees as it did not fall evenly throughout the season, but rather in a handful of massive storms that caused severe disruption and cut many resorts off for days on end (e.g. La Mongie).\nScandinavia had a steady if unspectacular winter with relatively low snowfall, but very cold temperatures – especially in the second half of the season.\nBulgaria had a decent enough season with regular snowfalls, especially during the early and middle part of the season.\nScotland has had a number a bumper seasons in recent years with 2012-13 again delivering the goods. It wasn’t perfect by any means – early conditions were somewhat variable – but spring was one of the coldest and snowiest on record allowing Cairngorm to run into the 3rd week in May.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

From the National Weather Service archives here events that happened on June 16.\n1858 - The wood brig, 2-mast Shakespeare, while carrying lumber, went ashore on Pilot Island in Lake Michigan, probably in a gale, and broke up by June 26, when the brig Pilgrim arrived to strip her.\n1939 - A giant hailstone downpour hit the Gogebic range early in the morning. Hail the size of marbles to larger than baseballs covered the ground and didn't completely melt until noon in some places. Hail eight inches in circumference was found shortly after the storm ended in Hurley, WI. At one greenhouse in Ironwood, MI, an estimated 800 panes of glass were shattered. Ironwood, Bessemer and Wakefield all reported extensive damage to businesses and homes. Automobiles throughout the Gogebic range were badly dented with gardens and crops sustaining extensive damage from the hail. A dozen barns and outbuildings were demolished, telephone and electric lines were brought down in Trout Creek as severe winds from the thunderstorm hit an hour later after moving through the Gogebic Range. 37 trees were uprooted on Main Street. The trees were about 2 feet in diameter and they tore out large sections of sidewalks and displaced sewer pipe. This storm continued to march across the U.P. and later hit a house in Newberry with lightning causing a mother and her two children to be treated for shock. The lightning destroyed the electrical equipment inside their house. A tremendous seiche occurred with the severe thunderstorm that moved across the U.P. this day. This seiche pushed and pulled the water of Lake Superior in and out of Marquette Bay at 30 minute intervals and began shortly after 1030 a.m. The seiche rose and fell 5 feet over several hours. While this was occurring, the weather bureau at Marquette observed a very jumpy barometer with a change of 0.3 inches in 15 minutes. Docks, fish houses and small boats sustained extensive damage in Marquette. Farther west, the highway between L'Anse and Baraga was closed as surging water brought debris from the lake over the road. On the north shore of Lake Superior, Canadian officials reported a rise of 8 feet in 20 minutes in the waters of Heron Bay. It took until the next morning for the lake to return to normal levels in Heron Bay.\n1947 – Cool weather settles into the Great Lakes with temperatures dipping into the 30s. Record lows for the date include Grand Rapids with 39° and Houghton Lake 32°.\n1969 - A severe thunderstorm produced a 58 mph wind gust 1.3 miles east of Negaunee in the early evening.\n1974 - Cool and cloudy weather prevailed for the middle of June with high temperatures only in the middle 50s across the region on both June 16th and 17th. On this day Grand Rapids only sees a high temperature of 55°, Muskegon 53°, Houghton Lake 56°, Lansing 57°, Detroit 63°, and near Marquette a chilly 49°.\n1998 - Lightning struck and killed a person at 6PM in Wayne County.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Nitrogen oxide emissions would drop by 52 percent.\nThe rule will require aging coal-fired power plants — many of which were built in the 1940s and '50s — to be upgraded with modern pollution controls. Scrubbers will need to be installed on more plants to cut back on sulfur dioxide emissions, and equipment known as selective catalytic reduction systems will be required to curb nitrogen oxide pollution.\nStates will be allowed to engage in limited trading of pollution credits as long as each stays below a set emissions limit.\nCoal plants are major sources of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide, which combine in the atmosphere to form lung-damaging smog and the fine particles commonly known as soot. The rule is expected to cost $2.8 billion a year but promises greater health benefits from fewer emergency room visits and early deaths.\n\"This rule is designed to cut pollution that spreads hundreds of miles and has enormous negative impacts on millions of Americans,\" EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson said in a statement. \"We're working to limit pollution at its source, rather than waiting for it to move across the country.\"\nThe Bush administration proposed a similar action, known as the Clean Air Interstate Rule. But in 2008, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia ordered the EPA to revise the rule after deciding the agency had overstepped its authority.\nAs a result, many power companies scaled back their investments in pollution controls. Now those companies will be forced to decide whether it is more cost-effective to retrofit their dirtiest power plants or shut them down.\nIn the Chicago area, the owner of six coal-fired plants already is facing a federal lawsuit alleging it avoided installing pollution controls and kept the plants operating well past the time they otherwise would have been closed.\nThe Midwest Generation plants, formerly owned by ComEd, are some of the biggest contributors to the region's dirty air problems. The company is still reviewing the new rule, but says a 2006 deal with state officials will lead them to clean up or close the plants by 2018. \"We're already on the pathway,\" said Bill Constantelos, Midwest Generation's director of environmental policy.\nOne of the plants, Fisk in Chicago's Pilsen neighborhood, has been generating electricity since 1903. The federal lawsuit also cites the Crawford plant in Chicago's Little Village neighborhood and plants in Joliet, Romeoville, Waukegan and downstate Pekin.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

These adrenaline-seeking individuals enter the heart of storms to witness and document their intensity.\nMissouri is known for its unpredictable weather patterns, including tornadoes, thunderstorms, and hailstorms.\nFor some, these events are a source of fear and anxiety, but for others, they represent an opportunity to learn about nature’s power up close.\nMissouri Storm Chasers are among those who see storms as more than just a threat – they view them as a chance to gain knowledge and understanding of meteorology while experiencing the thrill of chasing these powerful natural phenomena.\n- Missouri storm chasers rely heavily on advanced technologies like radar systems and GPS trackers, and undergo formal training programs to identify different types of storms and interpret weather data accurately.\n- Storm chasers recommend always staying updated on weather forecasts, carrying a safety kit, and having an exit strategy before starting to chase.\n- Storm chasing can be dangerous for the chaser and those who live in affected areas. Still, proper safety measures and training can effectively minimize the risks associated with storm chasing.\n- Storm chasing can be an incredibly rewarding experience that allows you to witness Mother Nature firsthand at her most powerful and awe-inspiring moments, but always prioritize safety over excitement.\nThe Fascination with Severe Weather\nChasing storms is like getting a front-row seat to the most electrifying, adrenaline-fueled show on earth. It’s no surprise that so many people are fascinated with severe weather.\nThere’s something about nature’s raw power and unpredictability that draws us in, even as we recognize the danger.\nThe psychology behind this fascination is complex. Some experts suggest that it’s a way for us to experience a sense of control over our environment, even if that control is illusory. Others point to the media coverage of natural disasters, which can make them seem more exciting than they actually are.\nWhatever the reason, there’s no denying that storm chasing has become an increasingly popular pastime in recent years.\nAs you dive deeper into the unique world of Missouri storm chasers, you’ll discover a community of people who share your love for adventure and your desire for freedom.\nThe Unique World of Missouri Storm Chasers\nYou can witness a world of adrenaline, passion, and adventure unlike any other when you join these fearless individuals on their pursuit. The storm chasing culture in Missouri is unique due to the state’s history with tornadoes.\nWith an average of 35 tornados annually, Missouri is one of the most active tornado zones in the United States. Storm chasers in Missouri are driven by a love for weather phenomena and a desire to understand them better. They use their knowledge and experience to track severe weather conditions, often putting themselves at great risk.\nDespite this danger, they continue to chase storms yearly, fueled by their love for adventure and freedom. Transitioning into the subsequent section about ‘the tools of the trade: technology and equipment’, it’s important to note that storm chasers rely heavily on advanced technologies such as radar systems and GPS trackers to locate severe weather conditions accurately.\nThe Tools of the Trade: Technology and Equipment\nUtilizing advanced technologies and equipment such as radar systems and GPS trackers is crucial for accurately locating severe weather conditions. Missouri storm chasers rely heavily on smartphone apps that provide real-time updates on weather patterns, allowing them to adjust their chase locations quickly. These apps can also track lightning strikes, tornado formation potential, and other important meteorological data.\nIn addition to smartphone apps, many storm chasers use specialized radar systems mounted on their vehicles to detect incoming storms.

Storm chasers are often exposed to hazardous conditions such as lightning, hailstorms, strong winds, flash floods, and tornadoes. Therefore, being well-versed in emergency procedures and hazard awareness is crucial.\nMany storm chasers undergo formal training programs that teach them to identify different types of storms and accurately interpret weather data. They also learn about safe driving techniques, communication protocols, first aid skills, and navigation tools.\nIn addition to this formal education, experienced storm chasers recommend always staying updated on weather forecasts and carrying a safety kit that includes items like helmets, gloves, goggles, radios, or cell phones for communication purposes. By taking these precautions seriously and continually improving their knowledge of the field through research or networking with other experts in the community, one can enjoy the thrill of storm chasing while minimizing any potential dangers involved.\nThe next section will explore the excitement behind chasing tornadoes without compromising your safety.\nThe Thrill of the Chase\nIf you’re interested in storm chasing, it’s worth noting that the average tornado lasts for about 10 minutes. That means you’ll need to be quick on your feet – and behind the wheel – if you want to catch a glimpse of one up close. But for many storm chasers, the adrenaline rush is worth the risk.\nHere are four things to consider before embarking on a storm chasing adventure:\n- Always have an exit strategy in place before you start chasing.\n- Invest in good equipment, like weather radios and GPS systems.\n- Stay alert while driving, as storms can change direction quickly.\n- Don’t get too close to storms or try to outrun them – safety should always come first.\nAs thrilling as storm chasing can be, it’s important to remember that risks are involved. To stay safe while pursuing your passion, it’s crucial to conduct a thorough risk assessment before each chase and always prioritize safety over excitement.\nWith proper preparation and caution, however, storm chasing can be an incredibly rewarding experience that allows you to witness Mother Nature at her most powerful and awe-inspiring moments firsthand.\nAs exciting as storm chasing can be, it’s also important to recognize the importance of research and education regarding severe weather phenomena such as tornadoes. By staying informed about current weather patterns and studying past storms in detail, we can better understand how these events work and what steps we can take to protect ourselves from their devastating effects.\nThe Importance of Storm Chasing Research and Education\nTo fully appreciate the power and beauty of severe weather phenomena like tornadoes, you need to immerse yourself in the world of storm chasing research and education.\nThe benefits of understanding these natural disasters go beyond just experiencing a thrilling chase. Storm chasing research provides valuable information on how to predict better, prepare for, and respond to severe weather events. It also helps scientists understand the impact of climate change on severe weather patterns.\nHowever, storm chasing research and education also come with significant challenges. Chasing storms can be dangerous for the chaser and those who live in affected areas.

Offshore oil and gas platforms faced being forced to halt production, while onshore flooding was likely.\nSome areas were already being hit by gale-force winds on Thursday. State meteorol0gists told Norwegian Broadcasting (NRK) that the high tides and waves would result from a powerful low-pressure system moving from the northern Atlantic Ocean into the Norwegian Sea. The area around Haltenbanken was expected to get what meteorologists called “100-year waves” – those so large they occur only once every hundred years on average.\nWaves of 15-16 meters mean they can crest at up to 30 meters, said Rasmus Myklebust of the state meteorological institute. “Vessels at anchor will mark the waves especially well,” Myklebust said, adding that some oil platforms will more than likely need to shut down operations. Officials at Statoil told reporters they were following the weather situation closely.\n“Every platform has different criteria for shutdown,” Ola Ander Skauby of Statoil told website bt.no. “In extreme weather it can happen that we stop external maintenance operations, and in some cases reduce or halt production entirely.” He said that floating installations were more vulnerable than platforms that are anchored to the sea floor.\nOthers were battening down the hatches as well, from Stad in the south to Kirkenes in the far northeast. Coastal areas of Vesterålen were said to be particularly at risk, while high water levels, powerful waves and strong winds were expected to batter the entire Norwegian coast from the Trondheim Fjord to Tromsø.\nThe storm has been given the name “Berit” and was due to reach its peak in central and northern Norway on Friday.\nViews and News from Norway/Nina Berglund\nPlease support our stories by clicking on the “Donate” button now:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The\ndry air mass, modifying effects of downslope flow and sunny skies\nwill largely counter cold air advection east of the mtns and allow\ntemp to rise to near if not a few degrees shy of Sunday's highs\n(m50s to l60s) with 40s to near 50 mtns. Minimum humidity this\nafternoon will likely fall between the u10s to m20s across much of\nregion, leading to elevated fire danger. A fire danger statement\nremains in effect for later today for northeast ga as a result of\nthe dry conditions. The 1030+ mb high will settle just to the north\nof the region, continuing to support the cool and dry continental\nairmass in place with light northeast winds atop the region. Min\ntemps from the 20s to mid 30s will be common across the area tonight\ndue to good radiational cooling conditions (light winds, clear skies\nand low dewpoints).\nShort term Tuesday through Wednesday night\nAs of 225 am edt Monday: strong, cool, and dry high pressure builds\ninto the area Tuesday then weakens and slides east on Wednesday. An\nupper low moves out of the plains and into the mid-south by\nWednesday night. There is a surface low associated with this system\nbut it is weak with no gulf moisture inflow ahead of it. There will\nbe an increase in clouds Wednesday and Wednesday night, but precip\nremains to the west. Highs Tuesday will be around 10 degrees below\nnormal. The atmosphere will be dry with rh values falling to around\n25 percent across NE ga. Winds will be relatively light, but a fire\ndanger statement may be needed for NE ga. Lows Tuesday night will be\nnearly 10 degrees below normal. The air mass moderates Wednesday\nwith highs around 5 degrees below normal. Dew points will also be\nhigher keeping rh values above 25 percent but still dry. Lows\nWednesday night will be a couple of degrees below normal.\nLong term Thursday through Sunday\nAs of 345 am edt Monday: the upper low from the end of the short\nrange moves south of the area Thursday. The associated surface low\nweakens and moves south of the area as well. Looks like there will|\nbe enough moisture and forcing for scattered light showers across\nthe mountains. Can't rule out some isolated showers across the nc\npiedmont, but kept the forecast dry for now given the lack of\nsoutherly low level moisture inflow and weakening forcing. Temps\nwill be near to slightly below normal.\nDry high pressure builds in on Friday and slides across the area\nSaturday. The ECMWF has a colder air mass than the GFS as it shows a\nsecondary short wave dropping across the area Friday resulting in\nlower thickness values with a slower recovery Saturday. For now,\nhave gone with a model blend for temps which are near normal Friday\nthen a few degrees above normal Saturday.\nShort wave ridging builds in on Sunday ahead of an upper low moving\nout of the rockies.

With the riding in place, this energy weakens\nas it moves toward the area. Return flow does develop between the\ndeparting high pressure and surface low moving into the ms river\nvalley.

That is, the storms nearly always form off the Azores Islands and then chug across the Atlantic in a fairly straight line towards the islands of the Caribbean and then swing northwards along the East Coast while other hurricanes form just after the Caribbean islands and split off to the Gulf of Mexico.

The Southern Taurid Meteor Shower in Canada will be visible in the night sky on October 10, and while it may not be quite as impressive as other celestial events, it can still deliver some great sights!\nThe Southern Taurids become visible to Earth observers as the planet passes through a stream of debris (this is a yearly occurrence). The Southern Taurid Meteor shower is active from late September to late November, but it will reach peak visibility on October 10.\nUnlike the Perseid Meteor shower, which took place earlier this year, amateur astronomists watching the Southern Taurids Meteor Shower should expect to only see about five meteors per hour. While that doesn't sound like very much, the quality of these sightings more than makes up for the quantity.\nThat's due to the fact that the Taurids meteors pass through the stream of debris mentioned previously, creating fireballs. So while this meteor shower may require a touch more patience when being viewed, it will definitely pay off with brighter meteors flying through the night sky.\nThe best time to see the meteor shower is sometime after midnight. However, some of the smaller and dimmer meteors might be washed out by the light from the full moon.\nThe further south you are, the more visible the shower is, but Canadians can still expect to see at least a few fireballs under optimal viewing conditions.\nThe next major celestial event that Canadians can witness will take place on November 11, when Mercury makes a transit between the Earth and the sun. To see this happen, you would need a telescope with a special solar filter, but the sight is worth it, considering that it only happens every three years!\nDisclaimer: Cover photo used for illustrative purposes only.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

More tornadoes have been recorded in Texas than in any other state, with 8,007 funnel clouds reaching the ground between 1951 and 2011, thus becoming tornadoes. Texas averages 125 tornadoes per year destroying buildings, flipping cars, and creating deadly flying debris.\nHow To Be Prepared\nTornadoes often happen quickly with short notice. Getting prepared is easier than you think.\nFirst Step is to make a plan then share and discuss it with everyone in your household.\nAfter you have made your plan, make a Go Kit. A Go Kit is a portable collection of emergency supplies and information. Building a Go Kit can be easy and most of the time everything you need is already at your home.\nWhen the time comes for a severe storm, tune in to your local weather channel or radio stations. If this is unavailable to you, you can also download a weather app on your phone or tablet device.\nAnother way to get notified for tornado weather here in Kaufman County, sign up for Kaufman County's Emergency Notification System.\nTornado Watches and Warnings\nThe National Weather Service (NWS) issues a tornado watch when conditions are favorable for tornados. Meaning, tornados have not been sighted in the area, but conditions could produce tornadoes. Be on the watch in case storms strengthen. Be alert.\nThe NWS issues a tornado warning when a tornado has been sighted. Immediately take action and seek shelter, get to your safe place until the tornado threat has passed.\nThe safest place to be during a tornado storm is a storm shelter built according to FEMA guidelines, or a basement.\nIf there is no storm shelter, get to the inner-most room, hallway or closet on the lowest level of the building. Stay away from windows and doors.\nFor additional protection, you can use cushions, a thick blanket to put over you. Wear sturdy shoes that will protect your feet if you have to walk through debris.\nIf you are in a vehicle, DO NOT try to outrun the tornado. Pull over and evacuate your vehicle and seek shelter. If there is no available shelter, find a ditch or low-lying area and lay flat on the ground, covering your head with your arms. Do not park under an underpass. Winds from a tornado can accelerate through an underpass, making it potentially more dangerous place than out in the open.\nMobile homes are unsafe in tornadoes. Have a plan to get to the nearest well-constructed building to take shelter.\nKaufman County does not have public tornado shelters. Due to traffic congestion and hundreds or thousands of other residents trying to get to public shelters it could have tragic consequences.\nHospitals and many other public buildings are NOT public storm shelters.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Relative humidity frequently reaches 100% during prolonged periods of rain.\nIs 55% humidity high or low?\nWhat is healthy humidity? It is recommended to keep indoor relative humidity between 30 and 50 per cent, if possible. People typically find a relative humidity between 30 to 60 per cent most comfortable.\nIs 46% humidity high or low?\nPut simply, low humidity in your house is terrible for you and your health. An ideal humidity level is about 45%. That rarely happens naturally. In the summer, humidity tends to get too high, which may require you to buy a dehumidifier.\nIs Singapore the most humid?\nThunderstorms occur on 40% of all days. Relative humidity is in the range of 70% – 80%. April is the warmest month, January is the coolest month and November is the wettest month.\n|Location||Southeastern Asia, islands between Malaysia and Indonesia|\n|Climate||tropical: hot, humid, rainy|\nIs Singapore humidity unbearable?\nRe: Is Singapore unbearably hot/humid? Unbearable is relative, but the short answer is that it is basically always hot and humid 365 days a year. Avoid midday and early afternoon outdoors if you’re not used to the tropics.\nIs 50% humidity a lot?\nA humidity level no higher than 50% is optimal as a general rule of thumb, but the best level depends on the temperature outside. The level of humidity, whether outdoors or inside your home, is a big factor in your comfort level and is a factor in your overall health.\nIs 50 indoor humidity too high?\nAccording to Energy Star, the ideal indoor relative humidity should be between 30 and 50 percent–anything higher than 50 percent is considered high. High humidity levels and excessive moisture can cause discomfort and health issues, and it can even wreak havoc on a home.\nIs 55 humidity too high for basement?\nA comfortable basement should maintain a humidity level of 30 to 50 percent — however, those may differ depending on your climate.\nIs 65 humidity too high in a house?\nThe humidity level inside your house is just as important as the temperature. … The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) recommends keeping the humidity below 65 percent, while the Environmental Protection Agency advises keeping it in a range between 30 and 60 percent.\nIs 70 percent humidity high?\nResearch from the Building Science Corporation found that humidity of 70% or higher adjacent to a surface can cause serious damage to the property. The Health and Safety Executive recommends that relative humidity indoors should be maintained at 40-70%, while other experts recommend that the range should be 30-60%.\nWhat is a good humidity level for allergies?\nThe key to keeping your allergies under control is finding the optimum humidity level for your home. According to Energy Star, the ideal humidity level is between 30 and 50 percent. Use ventilation fans in high humidity areas like the kitchen and bathroom to keep levels within the acceptable range.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Last year's storm was quite a sight, with thousands of meteors flashing through the sky within an hour of the storm's peak. This year's storm is promising to be just as active, although a full Moon in the sky will drown out all but the brightest meteors. Still, it should be worth a look. If you miss this opportunity, you won't get a chance to see another Leonid meteor storm for almost a hundred years!\nThere will be two opportunities for meteor storms this year, both in the early morning hours of November 19.\nThe first storm will be visible from western Africa and western and central Europe. The peak of this first storm is predicted to be around 4:00 Universal Time (UT), with the number of meteors ranging between 2,000 and 5,000 per hour.\nLocal viewing times on November 19th (for central and western Europe, and western Africa):\n- United Kingdom: between 3:00 a.m. - 5:00 a.m., with the peak around 4:00 a.m.\n- Central and Western Europe (including Spain, France, Germany, Norway, etc.): - between 4:00 a.m. - 6:00 a.m. with the peak around 5:00 a.m. The rising Sun may drown out the last bit of the storm.\nThe second storm will be visible from most of North America. The peak of the second storm is predicted to be around 10:36 UT, with the number of meteors ranging between 2,000 and 5,000 per hour.\nLocal viewing times on November 19th (within the United States):\n- Eastern Standard Time: between 4:30 a.m. - 6:30 a.m. with the peak around 5:36 a.m. The rising Sun may drown out the last bit of the storm.\n- Central Standard Time: between 3:30 a.m. - 5:30 a.m., with the peak around 4:36 a.m.\n- Mountain Standard Time: between 2:30 a.m. - 4:30 a.m. with the peak around 3:36 a.m.\n- Pacific Standard Time: between 1:00 a.m. - 3:30 a.m. with the peak around 2:36 a.m.\nThe storm will appear to originate within the constellation of Leo.\n2,000-5000 meteors per hour is a dramatic increase from the typical Leonid shower of 15 meteors per hour. Why the dramatic increase the past couple of years? Well, it all has to do with the orbit of Earth and a comet named 55P/Tempel-Tuttle.\nComet Tempel-Tuttle travels around the Sun once every 33 years. Each time the comet approaches the Sun, its dirty snowball of ice and rock melts and leaves behind a cloud of debris. This cloud gradually disperses, but it takes thousands of years to do so. And, since the comet visits the inner solar system every 33 years, the dusty region is constantly replenished. So, anything entering this region of space will find it a bit dusty. Anything, including Earth.\nEvery November, the Earth passes within the vicinity of the comet's path. Most years, our planet encounters only widely scattered debris. That debris burns up when it hits our atmosphere, producing the bright streaks of light called shooting stars, or falling stars. During a typical Leonid shower, an observer can see around 15 meteors per hour.\nOccasionally, Earth's orbit crosses directly through one of the debris clouds. When that happens, the debris is more concentrated. This year, Earth's orbit takes it directly through two different debris clouds. These clouds were left by the comet in 1767 and 1866. It also passes very close to the debris fields left by the comet in 1800 and 1833.\nThis year is the last year that Earth's path will take it directly a debris field for a long time. In fact, the orbit of Earth and Comet Tempel-Tuttle won't line up so nicely again until the years 2098 and 2131.\nSo, stay up late or get up early. Just take a chance and take a look!\nTips on How to View a Meteor Shower:","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The warmest months are generally June through September, while the cooler months are November through February.\nIf you grow tired of the warmth and sun, you can venture into the mountains. While most of the island does have year round warm weather, Grand Canary also features \"microclimates\" due to its varied landscape - while it can be warm and sunny in the coastal regions, it can be freezing and snowing in the mountains (often just an hour's drive away)!\n*These temperatures are for Las Palmas on the northern side of the island.

The fact we haven’t had any in Winnipeg this year is remarkable.”\nHassell said the last time a March in Winnipeg did not see a temperature above 0C (32F) was in 1899.\n“We’re still going to stay below normal even well into April,” concluded Hassell. “It will probably be until the middle of April at the earliest before we see actual normal conditions in Winnipeg”–but as we’ve been reliably informed, even in an overall warming climate, there can still be colder and snowier winters, and springs, and summers, and falls…\nThere Will Be Skiing On 4th Of July\nTuesday’s snowstorm extended California’s statewide snowpack to new record highs, and also prompted yet another round of avalanche and winter storm warnings.\nThis week, Cali snowpack is 227% of the April 1 average. “That is higher than any other reading since the snow sensor network was established in the mid-1980s,” said Sean de Guzman, manager of DWR’s Snow Surveys and Water Supply Forecasting Unit.\nMore snow is on the way, too — another 2+ feet in some isolated spots.\n“A powerful storm with gale force winds and high intensity snowfall will lead to widespread avalanche activity in the mountain,” the NWS said, adding, “Large avalanches could occur in a variety of areas.”\nThe calendar may read spring, but Caltrans warns, “Winter isn’t over yet! Be prepared for difficult driving conditions.”\nSuch conditions make are making summer skiing a distinct possibility. Palisades Tahoe has extended its season through July 4; Mammoth Mountain is staying open until July 30; and elsewhere, Snowbird, Utah will close May 27, with similar closing dates posted at Mount Bachelor, Oregon and also Whistler-Blackcomb, B.C., Canada — this isn’t a localized phenomena.\nRecord seasonal snowfall has hit Lee Canyon Resort, Nevada, too.\nResort Market Director Jim Seely confirms that 256 inches has accumulated so far, which surpasses the previous record (255 inches from 2005). And with another 10 inches forecast by Wednesday night, this season is set to continue rewriting the books.\nAs with the resorts above, Lee Canyon’s ski season has been extended, to April 9.\nSeely is also not ruling out a further extension.\nOn March 25, Alta Ski Area announced that this season is their snowiest ever, with yet more snow on the way.\nAlta has racked up 764 inches since the first flake fell back on Oct 22.\nThat’s an average of almost 5 inches per day.\nLooking ahead, OpenSnow is forecasting another 23 inches over the next 5 days and an additional 28 inches in the 5-10 days.\nAlta is well on its way to eclipsing 800 inches, with estimates pegging this season, by the close, at over 850 inches (71 feet!).\nElsewhere in Utah, on Monday, Snowbasin also broke its all-time snowfall record of 475 inches set during the winter of 1981-82.\nThen on Tuesday, following another powerful storm, the resort extended the record further, surpassed 500 inches.\nOn Mount Timpanogos, located outside the Sundance Resort, Utah, a large avalanche was captured on video.\nThe video, shot by Thomas Farley shows the a large powder cloud careening down the hillside.\n“(Monday), there was a natural avalanche that started on Mount Timpanogos and carried down the mountain into an area outside of our ski area boundaries,” Sundance Resort said on Twitter. “Footage shows the dust/wind cloud reaching guests who were watching, but no one was hurt as (the) deposition area never reached our boundaries.”\n“Once In A Generation Snow” Hits North America’s Hottest Desert\nAdding to the historic snowpacks listed above, Arizona, too, has been posting impressive totals.\nFlagstaff, for example, has logged 11 feet so far this season — its greatest accumulation in more than 70 years.\nAnd one I missed from earlier in the month:\nSwathes of the Sonoran Desert–which spans 100,000 square miles across Mexico’s Sonora, Baja California, and Baja California Sur, and America’s Arizona and California–saw an incredibly rare 4 inches of snow back in early March.\nLandscape photographer Jack Dykinga, who has been shooting the Sonoran Desert since 1976, said that snow hadn’t fallen in the area in a decade, adding that the scenes were “pure magic, seemingly out of place and strikingly beautiful”.\nBianca Feldkircher, a NWS meteorologist, said La Niña and a persistent blocking pattern over the Pacific drove fiercely cold Arctic air unusually-far south, which created the ideal conditions for the rare dessert snow.\nFeldkircher said of this winter’s remarkable pack in general, “Not only were you getting significant snowfall in areas that already see snow, you were also seeing snowfall on lower elevations, which is super rare.”\nIpso facto, this isn’t ‘warm snow’ that’s falling confined only to the highest mountain tops, as The Narrative would have us believe; rather, the snowline is descending deep down into the valley floors, to the lower elevations — you need COOLING for this to occur.\n“This snow is highly unexpected,” said mainstream meteorologist and former NOAA chief scientist, Ryan Maue.\n“It’s like once-in-a-generation.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A broad low pressure area located over the eastern portion of the Bay of Campeche is producing widespread cloudiness and disorganized showers and a few thunderstorms. This system will move little today, and little if any development is expected during that time due to interaction with land and unfavorable upper-level winds. However, the low should begin to move northward by this afternoon, and a tropical or subtropical depression is likely to form by late tonight or on Friday when the low moves across the western Gulf of Mexico. An Air Force Reserve Unit reconnaissance aircraft is scheduled to investigate the disturbance this afternoon, if necessary. Regardless of development, heavy rainfall will continue over portions of Central America and southern Mexico during the next few days.

And last year was a record even despite La Niña conditions in the Pacific Ocean — a cooler-than-average temperature pattern in the ocean around the equator.\nUltimately, researchers say humans have been the dominant cause of the relentless warming trend. Greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels trap heat in the planet’s atmosphere, creating an energy imbalance. The oceans, in turn, absorb 90% of the excess heat, which has led to an alarming increase in temperature.\n“The impacts are perhaps subtle but profound,” Trenberth told CNN. “To stop this [trend], we really need to get to net-zero [emissions], and many countries have plans but not enough actions to support those. In the meantime, we must prepare better and build resilience.”\nThe far-reaching impact of warmer oceans\nThe US witnessed devastating impacts from Hurricane Ida in Louisiana and Mississippi, as well as the record-breaking rainfall and deadly flooding its remnants brought as it tracked over the Northeast and New York City. In December, Super Typhoon Rai — known locally as Odette — claimed hundreds of lives in the Philippines during the holiday season.\n“Warm ocean provides fuel to storms, so ocean warming will naturally support stronger and longer-lasting storms,” Cheng said.\nThe rapid rise in ocean temperature threatens marine life and is a significant contributor to sea level rise.\n“Ocean warming — aside from causing coral bleaching and threatening sea life and fish populations that we rely upon for roughly 25% of our protein intake globally — is destabilizing Antarctic ice shelves and threatens massive meters of sea level rise if we don’t act,” Michael E. Mann, a climate scientist at Pennsylvania State University and one of the authors of the study, told CNN. “So this finding really underscores the urgency of climate action now.”\nAs the oceans heat up, the water expands and sea level rises. Cheng said about one third of the total sea level rise during the 20th century was due to ocean warming alone. In addition to more high-tide flooding, sea level rise threatens coastal freshwater supply with saltwater intrusion, and makes coastal communities and infrastructure more vulnerable to storm surge.\nCheng said part of the reason action is so urgently needed is because the oceans will continue warming for decades after fossil fuel emissions are slashed.\n“Many countries have set goals to become carbon neutral around the middle of this century,” he said. But “ocean warming will continue after 2060 and sea level will keep rising.”\nTrenberth explained that although reaching net-zero emissions would end Earth’s energy imbalance, “the oceans are slow to respond.” Heat will continue to “percolate to greater depths; sea level keeps rising for a lot longer,” he said.\nEven if countries make good on their pledges to reduce emissions soon, researchers say further ocean warming will continue and communities must prepare for the far-reaching consequences. The report’s authors noted that the long-term risks that come with warming oceans — including sea level rise and more frequent flooding — should be accounted for in “engineering design, building codes, and modifications to coastal development plans.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In its Q3 Global Catastrophe Recap report, Impact Forecasting, Aon’s catastrophe model development team revealed that insured losses from catastrophe events were set to exceed US$100bn for the third consecutive year. Aon reported estimated total economic losses from global natural catastrophe events at around US$227bn between January and end-September 2022.\nInsurers and reinsurers based on the African continent will be studying the report findings anxiously, as the total estimated economic losses for the EMEA region came in at US$42bn in the nine months, well above average. Michal Lörinc, head of catastrophe insight in Aon’s Impact Forecasting team, said: “It is anticipated that there will be robust loss development across many of the reported natural catastrophes, especially with the realisation of costs associated with recent tropical cyclone development worldwide. Recurring La Niña conditions and the remainder of tropical cyclone seasons can potentially trigger impactful events through the rest of the year, with additional costs arising from inflationary pressure.”\nAon’s findings were echoed by global reinsurer Munich Re, which Africa Ahead reported on earlier this month. In Two severe weather events in Africa contributed to overall natural catastrophe figures, we describe how heavy monsoon rains in Nigeria in July 2022, and powerful low-pressure storms in South Africa in April 2022, contributed to significant economic and insured losses in those countries. Flooding in Nigeria saw more than 100,000 buildings and crops on more than 5,000 square kilometres of farmland destroyed, and more than 600 lives lost. Aon put the economic cost of the Nigeria floods at around US$300m, but the April floods in South Africa’s KwaZulu-Natal province, which claimed more than 400 lives, were estimated to have caused economic losses north of US$3bn.\n“While the overall economic loss total was near the 21st-century average, aggregated insurance losses were set to notably exceed averages since both 2000 and 2012 and approach the average of the past five years,” noted Aon’s Impact Forecasting team. “These comparisons are highly dependent on the financial outcome of the impact of Hurricane Ian, which made landfall in the US at the end of September 2022.\n“It can take months before the insurance and reinsurance claims data following such extreme weather events are fully collated, with Aon describing the slow data progression as being “standard and expected in the aftermath of larger-scale events”.\nIn a statement accompanying the Q3 update, the firm also explained how secondary perils such as severe convective storm and flooding had dominated losses in the first half of the year, whereas losses from primary perils accelerated in the third quarter due to tropical cyclone activity in the Atlantic and Western Pacific. They expect that Hurricane Ian will emerge as the costliest singular weather event for the year, and potentially one of the costliest insured loss events on record globally.\nEven so, there is growing evidence that secondary rather than primary perils are driving natural catastrophe losses, with many reinsurers estimating that 60-70% of total insured losses belong under the ‘secondary perils’ category. Swiss Re, in its Sigma series, says that primary perils have the highest loss potential, are well monitored and usually covered by catastrophe models. By contrast, secondary perils generate small to medium losses, such as those caused by hail, storms and bushfires, and often have less mature modelling capabilities.\nTo further illustrate: much of the economic and insured damage following a hurricane, which is considered a primary peril, is actually caused by secondary perils such as hurricane-induced floods, hailstorms or tsunamis, to name a few. Swiss Re further identifies drought, thunderstorm, torrential rainfall and wildfire as secondary perils that are not adequately incorporated in reinsurers’ catastrophe models.\nReturning to the impact of climate change on Africa, Ernst Rauch, chief climate scientist at Munich Re, commented: “Two factors should be kept in mind when considering the 2022 natural disaster figures. Firstly, we are experiencing La Niña conditions for the third year in a row. This increases the likelihood of hurricanes in North America, floods in Australia [and Southern Africa], drought and heatwaves in China, and heavier monsoon rains in parts of South Asia. At the same time, climate change is tending to increase weather extremes, with the result that the effects sometimes complement each other.”","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Andrew Cuomo said residents shouldn’t wait until the last minute to evacuate if they think their homes will get inundated with what he called ‘sludge’ – a mixture of snow water, dirt and sewage from the snowfall.\nAbout 700,000 people were under a flood warning until Wednesday.\nStaying Stateside, and geologists have been studying an alarming increase in the number of earthquakes across the country so far in 2014.\nCNN’s Dan Simon explains a bit more about so-called “earthquake swarms” and whether the increase is a portent of doom in this video – well worth a watch!\nOver to our Aussie cousins, then, where it’s all been happening across the ditch this week.\nFirst of all in Queensland, November temperature records have been sent tumbling by a heatwave across parts of the state this month, according to the latest statistics from the Weather Bureau.\nLongreach in central-west Queensland has broken November heatwave records with an 11-day stretch of 40 degrees Celsius-plus temperatures, the bureau says. Longreach topped 41 degrees Celsius on Sunday.\nCunnamulla also had its hottest November day since records began in 1907, with 44.1 degrees.\nOver in New South Wales though, the news was slightly better at first, with rising humidity across the state contributed to widespread rainfall and kept the fire danger down this week – though that humidity would turn out to be something of a double-edged sword.\nParts of Sydney were then lashed by a storm on Monday afternoon, which resulted in ambulance crews treating several people who were struck by lightning.\nThree people were struck and at least 15,000 Sydney properties were left without power after the storm, which included about 3,000 lightning strikes.\nThen it was over to Brisbane for the biggest story of the week, as golf ball sized hail stones caused chaos across the city on Thursday night.\nA severe thunderstorm caused major damage across Brisbane, when hail smashed through car windscreens, small planes were overturned by damaging winds and flash flooding brought central city traffic to a complete halt.\nCheck out some incredible footage of the hail’s power below:\nBack on our own shores, some of the country experienced some fairly weird weather this week, too, with fog closing New Plymouth airport on Monday for a time, after several planes experienced difficulty landing.\nDozens of flights in and out of the city were cancelled, while the Taranaki Community Rescue Helicopter was also grounded by heavy fog in Raglan.\nWe ran a story earlier in the week picking a somewhat reserved start to summer (it’s here on Monday), while spring-like weather is looking like sticking around for a while yet.\nThose in the South Island and the lower North Island can expect spring-like conditions to extend well into December this year, as the current pattern is already showing signs of easing for the top half of the North Island, with an increase in drier, calmer, warmer days and a decrease in heavy rain events.\nCheck out the outlook for the whole country, here.\nWe’ve had a number of people writing about the lack of Monarch Butterflies around the country this spring so far, and it’s concerning environmental experts, too.\nWasps, an unsettled spring and fewer swan plants are believed to be the main reasons we’re seeing so few of the colorful insects this year – though there is a way you can help!\nAnd finally, Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment, Dr Jan Wright, has issued a stark warning to the New Zealand Government this week – act now or you’ll regret it.\nDr Wright predicts seas will rise by 30 centimetres by 2050 – and says while it may not sound much, its impact will be very costly for landowners.\nShe says that makes storms much more dangerous, and central government has to guide local councils so they know how to prepare.\nRemember to check out Philip Duncan’s latest weather video for your weekend outlook, here – and our latest poll is closing this afternoon, so get voting if you haven’t already!\n– Drew Chappell, WeatherWatch.co.nz\n– Picture: ABC","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Some 26,000 of those were foreigners, primarily from the United States, Canada and Great Britain.\nThousands in the state of Baja California Sur remained without electricity, water or phone service. A boat was on its way with humanitarian aid, and authorities were working to restore utilities.\nPresident Enrique Pena Nieto was scheduled to tour the area later.\nEmergency officials in Baja California reported that 135 people were treated for minor injuries. But surprisingly for a hurricane of this intensity there were no reports so far of fatalities directly related to Odile.\nBy late Tuesday night, Odile had left Baja California and was crossing the Gulf of California toward mainland Mexico. It was expected to reach Arizona as a tropical depression. Forecasters said it was still capable of unleashing dangerous floods and mudslides.\nThe U.S. National Hurricane Center said that by Tuesday night Odile had maximum sustained winds near 50 mph (85 kph). It was centered about 110 miles (180 kilometers) south of Puerto Penasco, and was moving to the north near 7 mph (11 kph).\nFarther south in the Pacific, Tropical Storm Polo was centered 235 miles (375 kilometers) south-southwest of Acapulco with maximum sustained winds of 50 mph (85 kph), and was moving northwest at 12 mph (19 kph). The hurricane center predicted that Polo could become a hurricane by Wednesday night.\nMeanwhile in the central Atlantic, Hurricane Edouard was a Category 1 storm with maximum sustained winds near 90 mph (150 kph). It posed no threat to land.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A snowfall rate of an inch an hour would mean 9 to 12 inches in many inches by midday, according to KTVI Fox 2.\nAs commuters hit the road, many of them leaving work early, traffic snarled on many roads. Even major roadways were snow covered as plows could not keep up with the snow.\nTraffic backed up for miles on Green Mount Road between Shiloh and Belleville as cars found it difficult to go up hills. In one two-mile stretch, traffic was at a standstill at about 5 p.m. By 7 p.m., 4-6 inches of snow had already fallen in parts of O’Fallon, more than falls all winter in some years.\nIn Missouri, numerous crashes were resulting in major interstates such as I-44, 55 and 70 being closed for stretches, according to the Missouri Department of Transportation. Some commuters were reporting being stalled in traffic for three or more hours.\nIDOT crews were trying to keep up with the rapidly falling snow. Plows were sticking to the main interstates and state highways, such as Illinois 159 between Belleville and Fairview Heights. More than 200 plows were expected to remain on the roads all night, according to KTVI Fox 2.\nLate Friday, Illinois State Police reported a traffic fatality at U.S. 40 and Lake Road.\nCaptain Tim Tyler said a vehicle traveling eastbound lost control and struck a westbound driver. The eastbound driver was not wearing a seat belt, he said.\nSince 3 p.m., 75 crashes were reported across the metro-east, Tyler said.\nThe National Weather Service was predicting a total of 8-12 inches of snow, sleet accumulations of around 1/3 of an inch and a light glaze of ice by Saturday in Southern Illinois and parts of Missouri.\n<iframe src=\"https://www.facebook.com/plugins/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fstclaircoilema%2Fvideos%2F290117025188466%2F&show_text=0&width=560\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" allowFullScreen=\"true\"></iframe>\nIt’s been six years since the metro-east and St. Louis saw 1 foot of snow. Patrick Walsh, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service St. Louis office, said 12.4 inches of snow was recorded at St. Louis Lambert International Airport on March 24, 2013.\nThe last time a two-day storm like the one coming to the metro-east brought more than 9 inches of snow was Jan. 5-6, 2014, according to Walsh. A total of 10.8 inches was recorded at Lambert during that storm. Coupled with that were temperatures below zero. The combination kept many schools from reopening after the Christmas break.\nThe mega storm coming on the weekend will mean that commuter traffic will be minimized. Many people stocked up on groceries Thursday and Friday in anticipation of the storm.\nIllinois Department of Transportation crews pretreated roads and bridges at risk of icing, according to a news release from Friday morning. IDOT stated that plowing operations were likely to continue through the weekend.\nIDOT, Illinois State Police and local law enforcement agencies were encouraging people to avoid traveling in the storm.\nFor some, there was no choice.\nAt Lambert, at least 69 flights had been canceled Friday ahead of the storm, 39 arrivals and 30 departures, according to the airport’s blog. Passengers were having trouble getting taxi and Uber rides once arriving at the airport.\nScott Air Force Base was operating under mission-essential only status from 2 p.m. Friday through Saturday.\nSeveral schools sent students home early because of the pending inclement weather, including in Belleville, East St. Louis, Edwardsville and Collinsville.\nBelleville East and West high schools dismissed students at 1:30 p.m. Friday, and their after-school events for Friday and Saturday were canceled.\nEast St. Louis District 189 canceled parent-teacher conferences and other evening activities scheduled for Friday. Students were already planning to leave early because they had a half-day of school.\nThe East St. Louis Senior High School basketball games against Vashon High School were rescheduled for Monday night.\nClasses at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville, Lindenwood University-Belleville, McKendree University and Lewis and Clark Community College weren’t expected to be affected by the storm. Students are scheduled to return Monday for the spring semester.\nStorm affecting much of Midwest\nThe National Weather Service says a storm stretching from the nation’s capital to Colorado could bring the highest snow totals in several years to sections of Missouri and Illinois.\nThe Associated Press reported that the storm is expected to drop 8 to 12 inches (20 to 30 centimeters) of snow in the St. Louis metropolitan area into eastern Illinois between Friday and early Sunday.\nLarge sections of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana are under winter weather advisories, and hazardous travel conditions are expected through most of the weekend.\nSally Johnson, a meteorologist in St. Louis, says the storm has the potential to drop the most snow in five or six years. Missouri received 10.8 inches (27 centimeters) on Jan. 5-6, 2014, and 12.4 inches (31.5 centimeters) on March 23-24, 2013.\nThe University of Missouri’s flagship campus in Missouri and St. Louis University shut down Friday afternoon, along with numerous public schools. Johnson said the heaviest amounts are expected along the Interstate 70 corridor from Columbia to St. Louis.\nSt. Louis Lambert International Airport spokesman Jeff Lea says airlines are canceling dozens of flights through Saturday morning. Jefferson City officials also announced plans to close city offices early.\nKansas City is also receiving large amounts of snow, but the storm is not expected to affect the NFL playoff game at Arrowhead Stadium between the Chiefs and Indianapolis Colts.\nIn Illinois, the weather service snow would begin in southwestern Illinois and spread northeast throughout the evening, reaching the Chicago area by Saturday morning. Snow totals are to taper to the northeast with parts of southwestern Illinois forecast to receive up to 9 inches (23 centimeters). The Chicago area is expected to get between 1 and 4 inches (2.5 to 10 centimeters) and much of central Illinois was expected to receive 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 centimeters).\nAnd in Indiana snow accumulations of 5 to 7 inches (13 to 18 centimeters) are expected between midnight Friday and 7 a.m. Sunday in portions of central, south central, southeastern, southwestern and west central Indiana. It says locally higher amounts of snowfall are possible.\nWarming centers will be available to those who need them through Saturday, according to the St. Clair County Emergency Management Agency.

(AP) - Virginia's emergency management chief urged residents to prepare for a dangerous storm as Hurricane Irene's projected path veered slightly to the east, putting it on a track that would spare the state's coast a direct hit but still produce plenty of strong winds and heavy rain.\nThe Virginia Department of Emergency Management said Wednesday that the hurricane could cause flooding in eastern Virginia and pummel the Hampton Roads area with winds up to 95 mph. Areas west of Interstate 95 could get winds of at least 39 mph, the department said.\n\"Irene's path is not certain, and a small change in the track could bring different impacts,\" department coordinator Michael Cline said. \"Virginia state agencies are getting ready for the storm, and so should residents.\"\nCheck WJLA.com for updates for local events, including the Columbia Heights Festival.\nForecasters have yet to pinpoint where the hurricane will make landfall. It is currently a Category 3 storm with winds of 120 mph.\nOfficials said Irene could cause flooding, power outages or worse as far north as Maine, even if the eye of the storm stays offshore. Hurricane-force winds were expected 50 miles from the center of the storm.\nPredicting the path of such a huge storm can be tricky, but the National Hurricane Center uses computer models to come up with a \"cone of uncertainty,\" a three-day forecast that has become remarkably accurate in recent years. Forecasters are still about a day away from the cone reaching the East Coast. A system currently over the Great Lakes will play a large role in determining if Irene is pushed farther to the east in the next three or four days.\nOfficials hadn't decided whether to postpone Sunday's dedication of the Martin Luther King Jr. memorial on the National Mall. Hundreds of thousands were expected for that event.\nOld Dominion University in Norfolk announced that it will close dormitories Thursday evening and shut down the entire campus Friday evening because of the storm. The start of fall classes was pushed back from Saturday until Tuesday.\nIn Virginia Beach, innkeepers and tourism officials were keeping a wary eye on a storm that threatened to spoil the next-to-last big weekend of the vacation season.\nJimmy Capps, manager of the Breakers Resort Inn in Virginia Beach, said the 56-room hotel has received a few cancellations for the weekend but was still about 80 percent booked.\n\"People are kind of taking a wait-and-see approach,\" Capps said. \"It just appears they're not quite sure what the storm is going to do. The thing I'm amazed at now is that we haven't had more cancellations so far.\"\nStephanie Newsom, morning manager at the Colonial Inn, said 188 of the 214 rooms were still reserved for the weekend.\n\"We're just waiting to see whether it moves up the coast or not,\" she said of the hurricane. \"Nobody's packing up and leaving.\"\nPam Lingle, spokeswoman for the Virginia Beach Convention and Visitors Bureau, said the city's visitor center had received few calls from tourists concerned about the storm.\nCapps said he was encouraging customers to wait at least until Thursday to decide whether to cancel reservations.\nIf at that time it appears Virginia Beach will be hit hard, Capps is in favor of customers canceling or rescheduling their visit.\n\"If it's going to be serious, I want the building empty,\" he said.\nNational Weather Service meteorologist Dan Proch in Wakefield said Irene is not headed directly for Virginia but could still wreak havoc along the state's coast.\n\"We will see tropical storm to hurricane force wind gusts along the immediate coast and there will be some storm surge, but right now trying to quantify it is hard,\" Proch said.\nHe said that on Tuesday, the hurricane appeared headed more toward the Norfolk area.\n\"Now the track is looking like it might not even make landfall except on the extreme eastern Outer Banks\" of North Carolina, Proch said, although he said that could still change over the next couple of days.\nThe U.S. Coast Guard suggested residents buy a battery-operated National Weather Service radio to keep up with storm reports if they lose power.\nCoast Guard Lt. Jack Smith said people also were advised to stay off the water because the Coast Guard planned to move its vessels to designated \"safe havens,\" which would delay response times if boaters get into trouble and signal for help.\nNavy ships, aircraft in Irene's path set to move\nNORFOLK, Va. (AP) - The U.S. Navy has ordered the Second Fleet to prepare to move ships out of the way of Hurricane Irene beginning early Thursday.\nThe Navy said Wednesday night that the order applies to ships in southeastern Virginia. It is home to the largest naval base in the world.\nThe Navy says Irene's current track shows destructive winds and a dangerous storm surge are predicted to hit the area.\nIt says ships that are under way can better weather such storms. It also will help protect piers from being damage. The Navy says if the track changes, the sortie may not get under way.\nEarlier, the mood was calm in Virginia Beach, Va. Jimmy Capps, manager of the Breakers Resort Inn, said the 56-room hotel is about 80 percent booked for the weekend, despite a few cancellations.\n\"It just appears they're not quite sure what the storm is going to do,\" Capps said. \"The thing I'm amazed at now is that we haven't had more cancellations so far. Usually when they start mentioning the Outer Banks and Cape Lookout, which we are between, the phones light up.\"\nCoastal NC county orders tourists out for Irene\nHATTERAS, N.C. (AP) - Officials in North Carolina's coastal Dare County say tourists must leave as Hurricane Irene approaches.\nThe county issued the order Wednesday night, saying evacuations would begin Thursday at 8 a.m. Dare officials will meet again Thursday to determine if residents need to evacuate.\nCounty spokeswoman Sharon Sullivan says as many as 150,000 tourists may be leaving the county that is home to some of the exposed Outer Banks. Currituck County officials have asked visitors to think about leaving.\nForecasts have Irene moving over the Outer Banks with winds over 100 mph Saturday. Evacuations began Wednesday from Ocracoke Island in Hyde County.\n\"Tourism depends so much on the weather, which is such an unpredictable element,\" said Samantha Rich, a tourism extension specialist at North Carolina State University. \"An extremely hot season, an extremely cold season, a hurricane - it can make or break a season, especially for small businesses.\"","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Most radio stations in the area break into normal programming with weather bulletins.\nBut the real difference in media attention has come from The Weather Channel, Letro said, which was laughed at when it was started in 1982. It is now considered a crucial element in providing emergency-weather information.\n``The Weather Channel is wonderful,'' Letro said. ``They basically take the information from us and put it on the air.'' And when there's a weather emergency -- such as a hurricane -- the channel limits its normal forecast programming to focus on the emergency.\nLetro said getting the information to the media and emergency managers is a relatively simple task thanks to a communication complex that automatically takes information from other weather service centers around the country and sends it out to media, other weather service centers and emergency managers.\n``That quick turnaround of information is crucial because it gives the people at the other end more time to do what they have to do,'' he said.\nThe other method of getting the information out quickly is the weather radio. The radios can do two things -- provide an ongoing forecast for the area it covers and break in whenever a weather emergency occurs.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

In contrast to that, we are now experiencing the Ursid Meteor Shower, which can be visable in the Connecticut sky until Sunday, but you'll have to look very hard. Between the full moon, and the meteor shower only producing about 10 meteors per hour at it's peak, there's really not much to see, so everyone go back to their homes.\nBut get ready, as soon as you ring in the New Year there will be a new meteor shower in town, and that one is called the Quadrantids Meteor Shower which will be visable above from December 28 until January 12, but is expected to peak in our area between January 2-3.\nNow most of the meteor showers that we can see here in Connecticut usually have a two day peak, however the Quadrantids peak is shorter in duration. During it's peak, you can expect to see as many as 200 meteors in an hour, of course provided viewing conditions are favorable. The one reason for the high number of meteors per hour is that the Quadrantids Meteor Shower only will be visable for a few hours, so there's a whole lot of meteors to see, but so little time, plus the Quadrantids Meteor Shower is also famous for it's bright fireball meteors.\nSo just when is the best viewing times in Connecticut for this particular meteor shower? Astronomers say that during the overnight hours and pre dawn hours. Also the best place for viewing is away from city or street lights, and of course a clear moonless night doesn't hurt either. The meteor shower show will last until dawn, so you should have plenty of time to witness this celestial event.\nHere's one more piece of interesting trivia about this particular meteor shower. Most of the meteor showers we see over Connecticut originate from comets, but not the Quadrantids, this meteor shower originated from an asteroid.\nHere's a look at some video of last years Quadratids Meteor Shower.\nLOOK: The top holiday toys from the year you were born\nWith the holiday spirit in the air, it’s the perfect time to dive into the history of iconic holiday gifts.

In general, the north of the UK tends to see more severe weather than the south, hence the popularity of the south coast shoreline during the summer.\nSeason and Clothing\nWinter: November to February\nWinter weather throughout the United Kingdom can be testing at times, and for the most part it’s more of an annoyance. With temperatures ranging from -5 to 5 degrees Celsius, packing for the cold weather is essential with a good coat to keep the wind and rain off along with other winter amenities such as gloves and a beanie. Despite this, many people prefer the winter as snow can turn the landscape into a winter wonderland with a traditional white Christmas.\nSpring: March to April\nSpring in the UK is pleasant for the most part with Scotland still showing chilly winter-like temperatures. The landscape escapes the grip of winter frost and thaws throughout these months with temperatures ranging from anywhere between 2 and 17 degrees Celsius. Even when the sun is out it can still be cool until the end of April. Being in-between winter and summer, this period in the UK can show aspects of both climates, sometimes all in one day. Spring is often a time when locals spend their weekends in the countryside or head to the incredibly popular Chelsea Flower Show.\nSummer: May to August\nThe UK summer season is usually a mixture of brilliant sun and interval showers, which can, on occasion, be rather heavy. Generally speaking, temperatures range from 10 degrees Celsius all the way up to 30 degrees with inner-city areas tending to be hotter than the countryside and seaside. Summer in the UK is also when many music festivals kick off including the Leeds/Reading Rock festival in August as well as the world-renowned Glastonbury festival, which draws crowds of up to 150,000. Be quick to get your tickets to next year’s event!\nAutumn: September to October\nIn autumn, temperatures begin to plummet with winter weather definitely setting in as October comes around the corner. September is still a very nice time to visit the UK with the most notable change being the slight kick of wind that whirls as the days draw to a close. As a guide, autumn temperatures average around 9 to 20 degrees Celsius with the mercury dropping significantly at night. To combine your trip with a national celebration, time your UK holiday to coincide with the pagan festival of Halloween on October 31 with most of the big cities getting into the US co-opted holiday spirit.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

The month of March, which witnessed extraordinary spikes in temperatures, was the hottest ever recorded,” it said.\nThe World Bank report further cautioned that rising heat across India can hit economic productivity, observing that 75 percent of India’s workforce, or 380 million people depend on heat-exposed labour, at times working in potentially life-threatening temperatures.\n“By 2030, India may account for 34 million of the projected 80 million global job losses from heat stress associated productivity decline,” the report said.\nThe World Bank further said that lost labour from rising heat and humidity could put up to 4.5 percent of India’s GDP at risk by the end of this decade.\n[With Inputs from IANS]\nPGurus is now on Telegram.

J\nBy Sudarshan Varadhan and Mayank Bhardwaj\n| NEW DELHI\nNEW DELHI India is likely to emerge unscathed from the El Nino weather pattern as it is expected to set in only during the latter part of the four-month monsoon season, a top weather official said, indicating a timely arrival of crop-nourishing rains.Monsoon rains, the lifeblood for India's farm-dependent $2 trillion economy, arrive on the southern tip of Kerala state by around June 1 and retreat from the western state of Rajasthan by September.\"We are not worried about El Nino at the moment because this weather pattern is likely to emerge only after July,\" K. J. Ramesh, director general of the India Meteorological Department, told Reuters in an interview.The emergence of El Nino after July does not either indicate a weak start or deficient rains, as this weather pattern is only one of the many variables influencing the south-west monsoon, Ramesh said.A U.S. government weather forecaster earlier this month said La Nina conditions had disappeared and projected the possibility of El Niño developing later this year.\nForecasters in Japan and Australia also see a 40-50 chance of the El Nino weather pattern later this year.El Niño, a warming of ocean surface temperatures in the eastern and central Pacific that typically occurs every few years, faded in 2016 and was linked to crop damage, fires and flash floods.\nDespite forecasts of La Nina leading to heavy bursts of rains, India only received average monsoon rainfall last year, not surplus as previously expected, Ramesh said, alluding to the limited impact of both El Nino and La Nina on India's monsoon.Typically less damaging than El Niño, La Niña is characterized by unusually cold ocean temperatures in the equatorial Pacific Ocean and tends to occur unpredictably every two to seven years. Severe occurrences have been linked to floods and droughts.India defines average, or normal, rainfall as between 96 percent and 104 percent of a 50-year average of 89 cm for the entire four-month season.\nA weak El Nino, forecast to develop across Asia this year, would have only slight impact on crops such as wheat, palm oil, rice and oilseeds, Kyle Tapley, an agricultural meteorologist with U.S.-based MDA Weather Services, said this month.The monsoon, which delivers 70 percent of India's annual rainfall, is critical for the country's 263 million farmers and their rice, cane, corn, cotton and soybean crops because nearly half of its farmland lacks irrigation.Before receiving average rains in 2016, India suffered back-to-back drought years for only the fourth time in over a century, hurting incomes and driving some farmers to suicide.

Residual weather from Willa will travel up the East Coast and develop into a coastal low, or nor'easter, said Trent Davis, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service's Mount Holly, New Jersey, office.\nWeekend weather forecast for Sussex County\nHeavy rain and strong winds are expected for Sussex County late Friday going into Saturday, but it is possible the nor'easter could miss the area, Davis said.\nAs of Wednesday morning, wind gusts of 20-25 miles per hour were expected for Friday and Saturday. The rainfall accumulation is estimated to be less than an inch, but some areas could receive more. Flooding is not anticipated to be an issue this weekend, Davis said.\nWhile the temperatures will dip slightly, it doesn't look like it will be cold enough to snow this weekend, Davis said. Friday will see a high of 58 degrees and a low in the upper-40s at night. Saturday will be a little warmer with a high of 60 and a low in the 40s. But on Sunday the temperatures will drop to the mid-50s.\nWeather forecast for the Eastern Shore\nWicomico and Worcester counties are expected to see similar weather conditions to its Delaware neighbors, Davis said.\nThe rainfall over the weekend could be slightly more for Salisbury and Ocean City, with a predicted accumulation of about 1-2 inches. Some areas may see more rain, though, Davis said.\n\"On Saturday morning, there could be some minor coastal flooding with the residual high tide,\" Davis said. \"Areas more prone to flooding could see some issues.\"\nWinds will be stronger closer to the coast and there is the potential for some good gusts in the area, Davis said.\nFriday will be the coldest with a high of 57 degrees, but Saturday and Sunday will warm up slightly to the low 60s. There is a small chance of showers on Sunday, but the forecast is looking more positive toward the end of the weekend, Davis said.\nSea Witch Festival and other events might be canceled?\nWith a nor'easter anticipated to bring bad weather, organizers of the Sea Witch Festival in Rehoboth Beach are preparing to adjust the planned activities.\nBut weather-related decisions regarding the Sea Witch costume parade won't be made until late Friday night or early Saturday morning, according to a Facebook post from the Rehoboth Beach and Dewey Beach Chamber of Commerce and Visitors Center.\nSea Witch Festival:5 things to know about the Rehoboth Beach classic\nIn the event the costume parade on Saturday is canceled due to weather, it will not be rescheduled, according to the Facebook post. Costume photos will be submitted via email for judging and awards.\nSome activities for the Sea Witch Festival will continue as planned, rain or shine, per the Facebook post. Updates regarding the festival will be communicated on social media.\nAs of Wednesday afternoon, the OCtoberfest event in Ocean City will still happen as planned this Saturday, according to a Facebook post from ShoreCraftBeer.com. But at noon on Thursday, the event coordinators will make the final decision depending on what the weather forecast looks like. If Saturday has bad weather, OCtoberfest will be rescheduled for Sunday.\nThe Ocean Pines Association, which is hosting a Halloween Fall Festival this weekend, is watching the weather forecast as well.\nSince the Halloween Fall Festival is a big event, not all of the carnival games can be moved inside, so if the weather is bad, the whole event will be canceled, said Denise Sawyer, marketing and public relations director of the Ocean Pines Association.\nOcean Pines officials will make the call of whether or not to cancel on Friday morning, Sawyer said. If the Halloween Fall Festival is canceled, free candy will still be available for families to pick up on Halloween night in the Community Center.\nThe Pemberton Park Pumpkin Tour has already been canceled due to the weekend's weather forecast, according to a release from the Wicomico County Recreation, Parks & Tourism. The pumpkin tour in Salisbury was originally scheduled for Friday, Oct. 26.\nThe Westside Schools Parent Teacher Association announced its Trunk or Treat event had to be canceled as well due to the weather, according to a Facebook post from the PTA. Monetary donations given this year will be used for next year's event.\nHow to prepare your home\nAs the temperatures get colder, it's important to keep your home properly insulated to protect against harsh weather conditions.\nWorkers at Rommel's Ace Home Center in Salisbury have seen many customers coming in to prepare for the fall and winter seasons. Kelly Byrnes, the store's general manager, said a lot of this preparation is focused on making sure homes are properly insulated.\n\"The cold hits quickly, so we've seen a lot of people buying space heaters and wooden pallets,\" Byrnes said.\nShe added that more people are getting their winter maintenance done faster than in previous years.\nCustomers are also coming into the store to get supplies and tools to cover up old windows with film kits or clean out their gutters, Byrnes said.\nOverall, though, Rommel's customers don't seem to be too concerned about the impending nor'easter, Byrnes said.\n\"Nor'easters, we get those all the time. It's par for the course,\" Byrnes said. \"More customers tend to come in ahead of hurricanes and snow storms.\"\nContact reporter Sara Swann at (302) 324-7711, email@example.com or on Twitter @saramswann.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Many roads in the county were littered with debris from damaged buildings.\n“I can hardly speak and must stand close to the wall in order to make my report,” said a woman journalist from SET cable television who was reporting about the typhoon amid strong gusts and torrential rain.\nKnee-deep floods struck some areas in southern Taiwan, including Kaohsiung and Pingtung.\nHarbour authorities in Kaohsiung had to dispatch two tow vessels to assist the Singapore-flagged cargo ship Avata away from a military port after it was blown off course from a civilian port where it had docked for shelter. It almost ran into a navy vessel before it was towed away, harbour officials said.\nThe roof of a police warehouse in Kaohsiung was also lifted by strong winds but no casualties were reported.\nThe typhoon also cut power to more than 360,000 households, Taiwan Power Company said, adding electricity had been restored to most areas by Friday afternoon.\nForecasters called on residents in Taiwan to remain cautious with heavy rain expected in 10 cities and counties, including Kaohsiung in the south and Taichung in central Taiwan.\n“Although Nepartak has left Taiwan, it has brought torrential rain that would continue to affect Taiwan,” a spokesman of the Central Weather Bureau said.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Sunshine, sunshine, sunshine… Yesterday cloudy skies in the middle of the day were almost a tease. Today there will be an uptick in afternoon NW winds to add a little spice but really the story remains the same. We have seen 20 days without any precipitation and nine days since a wind event impacted our region. Despite the weather and snowpack conditions being mostly stable and the weak layers dormant, a hard wind slab 12-18” deep was triggered by a snowmachiner three days ago on a SE aspect of Seattle Ridge. This is a good example of a wind loaded terrain feature still harboring unstable snow and a good reminder that LOW danger does not mean NO danger. Kicking off even a small wind slab or loose snow avalanche in steep terrain may have high consequences. Things to keep in mind if you are headed to the mountains today:\nWind Slabs: Old and hard winds slabs are easy to find but for the most part they are locked into place. Smooth pillowed snow on steep unsupported features or in rocky areas will be the most suspect zones for someone to initiate an old wind slab. Pay attention to blowing snow today if the NW winds start to pick up any soft snow. There is not much left to transport. Watch for shooting cracks if slopes are actively being loaded.\nLoose Snow Avalanches (Sluffs): Dry sluffs on steep slopes are probable and have been fast moving this week.\nGlide Avalanches: Glide cracks continue to slowly open above popular terrain on Seattle Ridge and in other areas of the advisory area. These could release at any time, watch for these cracks and avoid being under them.\nCornices: Cornices should always be given a wide berth from above and limit exposure time traveling underneath.\nPersistent Slabs and Deep Slabs: There are various weak layers in our thin snowpack. Buried surface hoar sits 1-3+’ below the surface and faceted snow sits in the mid and base of the pack. These weak layers with varying degrees of strength are in a dormant stage due to plenty of time to adjust with a lack of changing weather. Although its unlikely, an avalanche breaking deeper in the pack isn’t completely out of the question in Johnson Pass, Lynx Creek and in parts of Girdwood Valley (especially around Crow Pass).\nThis hard wind slab was initiated by a snowmachine just below the trees, lookers left side of photo, while exiting the slide path. This was on a SE aspect of Seattle Ridge at 2400′ in an area near ‘God’s Country’. Photo by Brian Bird.\nHigh clouds over Seattle Ridge yesterday. Note the series of glide cracks along the ridge that continue to open.\nYesterday high clouds rolled into the region as a short wave passed over. Skies cleared in the evening. Winds were light and variable. Temperatures were in the teens to low 20Fs. Overnight the temperatures dropped into the single digits.\nToday is forecasted to be clear, sunny and cold. Valley temperatures may hit the low 20s but the ridge tops will remain in the single digits to low teens. NW winds are expected to pick up with gusts into the 20s. Tonight temperatures may drop below 0F.\nTomorrow will be partly to mostly cloudy with a chance of light snow in the afternoon and the colder temperatures will continue. There is hope that the overall pattern will change more significantly early next week.\n*Seattle Weather Station tables and graphs are not recording temperature history.

People were rushing over to the right-hand-side of the flight while the seatbelt sign was still off.\n“The atmosphere just shifted entirely once the pilot said he would do a 360° turn – and as it turned out, we ended up flying back to Edinburgh through the Northern Lights. It was incredible.”\nThe lights are caused by activity on the surface of the sun and are created when a steam of charged particles, known as solar wind, is released.\nIt then travels through the solar system and when it reaches the outer atmosphere of Earth, it collides with the charged particles which exist in our magnetosphere.\nOn the ground, an even more spectacular display was expected on Monday night – however, cloud cover was widespread making it impossible to witness the natural phenomenon.\nSTV News is now on WhatsApp\nGet all the latest news from around the countryFollow STV News\nFollow STV News on WhatsApp\nScan the QR code on your mobile device for all the latest news from around the country","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

But, the India Meteorological Office (IMD) has held out a warning that the cyclone would also bring about temperatures to rise on its trail, in excess of land throughout the region.\nUtmost temperatures are currently regular to beneath regular in excess of most sections of the region immediately after cooler western disturbances intervened in excess of North-West and East India and later on Amphan dropped anchor in the Bay. Rain-driving winds would now be changed by dry north-westerly winds and resultant dry weather in excess of North-West, Central and West India, the IMD said on Tuesday afternoon.\nUtmost temperatures might rise slowly by two-four levels Celsius in excess of the plains of North-West, Central and West India through up coming 3-four times but by only a bit reduce two-3 degree Celsius in excess of the South Peninsula from as early as tomorrow (Wednesday). A heat wave might acquire in excess of West Madhya Pradesh and Vidarbha from Tuesday to Saturday in excess of Rajasthan from Wednesday to Saturday in excess of Uttar Pradesh and Telangana from Thursday to Saturday in excess of Gujarat from Wednesday to Thursday and in excess of Coastal Andhra Pradesh and Rayalaseema from Friday to Saturday.\nProlonged heating and heat waves are crucial to decreasing the atmospheric tension in excess of land and established up the right gradient vis-a-vis the comparably cooler seas and the bigger tension. The monsoon winds blow in from the higher-tension region (sea) to a very low-tension region (land). The heating procedure in excess of North-West India experienced been compromised thanks to western disturbances trooping in with greater frequency.

They are also known as the aurora borealis. While typically associated with far northern regions, Indiana is among the states where the phenomenon may be visible. If you’ve always wanted to see the northern lights, here’s everything you need to know to catch a glimpse.\nNorthern Lights in Indiana:\nOn Thursday, July 13, the northern lights are expected to be visible in the northern parts of Indiana, weather permitting. Additionally, there is a chance that they might appear low on the horizon in Indianapolis. To increase your chances of viewing this natural spectacle, it is recommended to find a location away from city lights and light pollution.\nBest Time for Viewing:\nThe optimal time to observe the aurora borealis is between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time. The NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center says to keep in mind that the brightness of the lights depends on the level of geomagnetic activity. NOAA will release its own forecast as the date approaches, providing information for planning your viewing experience.\nOther States Where the Northern Lights May Appear:\nApart from Indiana, the following states may also have the opportunity to witness the northern lights this week: Alaska, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Maine, Maryland, New York, New Hampshire, Washington, Vermont, Idaho, Oregon, and Wyoming.\nUnderstanding Aurora Borealis:\nThe northern lights are a breathtaking natural phenomenon characterized by colorful lights visible in the night sky. The lights are more commonly observed closer to the North and South poles. They have occasionally been spotted closer to the Equator. To catch a glimpse, simply look in the direction of the closest pole. For us that is north towards the Northern Hemisphere.\nCauses of the Northern Lights:\nThe aurora borealis is usually triggered by solar winds emanating from the sun and interacting with the Earth’s magnetic field. Markedly, this interaction creates a spectacular display of lights in the atmosphere.\nFinally, you can seize this rare opportunity to witness the northern lights. Make sure to check weather conditions. Also, seek out dark and unpolluted areas. Finally, prepare to be amazed by the dazzling dance of colors in the night sky.\nThe post Aurora Borealis: dancing waves of remarkable light in Indiana this week appeared first on WIBC 93.1 FM — Indy's Mobile News.\nAurora Borealis: dancing waves of remarkable light in Indiana this week was originally published on wibc.com\nB's Big Bucks\nChoose The Music We Play On B105.7!\nBest Places In Indianapolis to Watch The Eclipse 2024\nTwo New Sauces Join McDonald’s: Sweet & Spicy Jam Sauce and Mambo Sauce\n20 Things Around The World That Should Be Everywhere\nEnter To Win: xZooberance at the Indianapolis Zoo!\nMysterious Photo Impacting People Who See It\nHanson’s ‘MMMBop’ Lyrics Aren't What You Thought","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

A drive down both roads found the going easy for 4-wheel drive vehicles but dicey in some spots.\nMany secondary roads remained unplowed by early afternoon. Asked a Virginia Department of Transportation snow plow driver about the schedule for secondaries, he frowned.\n“We’ll get to them as soon as we can,” he said. “We’re trying to keep the main roads cleared first.”\nSnow plows on the roads were scraping and dropping chemicals. With the temperatures in the 20s, freezing is a problem but the National Weather Service in Blacksburg says Floyd County temperatures will continue to rise Monday and top freezing around midnight, then keep going up into the higher 30s by daybreak and hit 40 degrees before noon.\nDaytime highs will continue to rise through the week and is forecast to reach 59 degrees by Saturday and 57 on Sunday with just a 10 percent chance of rain.\nWith Monday falling on the President’s Day holiday, the area was all but closed. The Courthouse and banks closed anyway but plan to be open on time Wednesday.\nSchools closed in Floyd County and through most of the area. The schools remain closed for Tuesday, joined by the counties of Montgomery, Botetourt County, Roanoke, Pulaski and the cities of Roanoke, Salem and Covington.\nA planned conference basketball game between Floyd’s Buffaloes and the Giles Spartans, the included a reschduled homecoming celebration for Floyd — twice postponed already because of weather — was set for Monday night is now scheduled, tentatively, for Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. at the FCHS gym.\nFloyd County’s new Drug Court was scheduled for its first session Tuesday morning, weather permitting, and three trials are also set for Tuesday in Circuit Court. The weather, however, is not permitting.\nThe aisles were pretty empty of shoppers at Food Lion shortly after noon Monday. Same for Dollar General. When we asked the clerk about the crowd, she said: “Oh, they were here yesterday.”\nAppalachian Power Company reported more than 2,000 power outages after midnight Monday — mostly from Franklin County, which had more than 1,300 customers in the dark. No outages reported in Floyd County at 3:00 a.m.\nThe winter storm warning for our area remains in effect until noon Tuesday. A flash flood watch is in effect for Southwestern Virginia west of I-77, which does not include Floyd County, the New River Valley or the Roanoke area.\nSo the expectation as of Monday afternoon is that some pockets of severe ice may develop overnight, but it probably warms just enough that a widespread major ice storm does not occur across our entire region. This of course is a borderline situation that needs to be monitored. Sporadic power outages are possible even if we do not have severe ice. Many tree limbs are weighted down by snow, and a little ice could take a few limbs downs, maybe across power lines.\nBeyond tonight, a big melt gets going in earnest on Tuesday, with highs in the 40s. Overnight night rain will loosen and slush up the snow anywhere it doesn’t coat it with a thick layer of ice. Highs in the 40s and 50s are expected into the weekend, and maybe, just maybe, a few places touch 60 over the weekend.\nThat may be the good news. Myatt concludes:\nDo not mistake this week’s milder pattern for the start of spring. There are likely Arctic air masses and perhaps another winter storm threat or 2 to deal with as we push into late February and early March.\nAll right. The groundhog lied. Where’s my rifle?

Over the last few days, a chain of tornadoes killed 39 people, as it swept across the Midwest to the Gulf of Mexico.\nOn Sunday, many of the people living in the U.S. towns and cities hit by the recent chain of tornadoes sat down to count their damages. Homes, schools and even a prison were damaged during the tornadoes, while trees and vehicles didn’t even stand a chance. Kentucky and Indiana accounted for the highest number of victims, with 21 and 13 deaths. Ohio recorded three deaths while Alabama and Georgia reported just one death caused by the heavy storms.\nWith everything ravaged around them, people in the area of Kentucky and Indiana were warned that Sunday night would bring a snow storm, with the National Weather Service forecasting up to three inches.\nAccording to ABC News the first day the tornadoes ravaged the Midwest resulted in serious damage. By early evening, seven states reported 70 tornadoes. Marysville, Ind. accounted for the hardest hit towns. Clark County Sheriff’s Department Maj. Chuck Adams told reporters the town was “completely gone”. People living in Henryville in Indiana had to survive two tornadoes in a short period of time.\nFrom the first day of the National Weather Service storm forecast became active, Russell Schneider, director of NOAA’s Storm Prediction Center in Oakland, warned that “the risk to property and people is substantial on a widespread outbreak of this variety”.\nOfficials announced that people in Alabama, Kentucky, Tennessee, South Carolina, Missouri, Illinois and Indiana were out of power as electric lines have been damaged during the storms.\nOne particular death brought the whole drama of the people living through tornadoes upfront. In Southern Indiana, a toddler died Sunday after medics took her off life support. Angel Babcock was discovered in a field and travelled for 28 miles to reach the Kosair Children’s Hospital in Louisville. During the storm both her parents and two siblings died. The tornado picked up the mobile house the family was sheltering in and dropped it 100 yards further from their original point.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Fine particulate matter, he said, may be most harmful to developing lungs.\nDworkin said one of the best places to learn about this issue is on a Web site post by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency , www . epa .gov/particles/basic.html.\nTherefore, he said, it's perplexing that the EPA, in the waning days of the Bush administration, is considering a move that would weaken EPA regulations and allow big power plants in the Midwest to emit even more pollution -- pollution that prevailing winds carry to Connecticut daily.\n\"It's so disappointing to see these kinds of back-door regulations being prepared,\" Dworkin said.\nLast week, Gov. M. Jodi Rell joined the five other New England governors to protest the changes. Writing to EPA Administrator Steven Johnson , Rell and the other governors said the changes \"threaten the quality of our states' air and the health of our citizens.\"\nNew England, the letter said, is penalized by geography. No matter how hard the Northeastern states strive to clean sources of air pollution within their boundaries, they cannot control the vast clouds of smoke belched from the tall smoke stacks of coal-fired power plants in the Midwest. The upper-air winds, blowing west to east, carry the soot to New England.\n\"We depend heavily on federal leadership to address air pollution transport,\" the six governors said.\nAt issue are changes in the federal Clean Air Act, under what is called New Source Review. Under those provisions, power plants due for major renovations must add modern pollution control devices if the renovation would increase the plant's annual emissions.\nBecause such renovations usually increase the hours a plant operates, they mean the plants will emit more pollution over a year.\nWhat the proposed change would do is exempt a plant from installing the new pollution controls as long as new emissions don't exceed the plant's existing hourly rate of emissions. Thus, the rule change would allow the plants to continue polluting at the same rate, but for more hours.\nAlong with the fine particulate matter, this pollution also contributes to smog in the summer, to acid rain, and to climate change, the governors' letter said.\nWhat's unclear right now is when -- or whether -- the EPA will put these regulations into effect by publishing them in the Federal Register.\nThere was concern the EPA would publish them last week. That would put them outside a 60-day limit before Jan. 20 -- the day President George W. Bush leaves office and U.S. Sen. Barack Obama takes the oath of office as our next president.\nIf the EPA had published the regulations outside the 60-day limit, they would go into effect. But if the Bush administration publishes regulations inside the 60-day limit, the incoming Obama administration can block them from going into effect.\nEPA spokesman Jonathan Schrader said Tuesday there has been no date set for publishing the new regulations.\n\"There is a significant amount of work to do on them,\" Schrader said.\nDennis Schain , spokesman for the state Department of Environmental Protection , said Connecticut will monitor the EPA's decisions on the regulations carefully over the next 60 days.\n\"We will stay on top of it,\" he said. And if the EPA does publish them, \"we will take appropriate action.\"\nContact Robert Miller\nor at (203) 731-3345.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}

Eight inches of snow hits Big Rapids in rare mid-April storm\nBIG RAPIDS — After several days of sunny skies and temperatures reaching into the 60s, snow returned to the Big Rapids area on Sunday, causing traffic crashes, school cancellations and plenty of consternation from people seeking a reprieve from Old Man Winter.\nThe National Weather Service (NWS) declared a winter weather advisory and the Big Rapids water treatment plant reported eight inches of snowfall from a storm which started early Sunday afternoon and stretched through the evening hours.\nSeveral local area school districts, including Big Rapids, Evart, Morley Stanwood, Crossroads Charter Academy, Reed City and others, started school on a three-hour delay, while Chippewa Hills canceled school all together.\n\"We used to do two-hour delays, and we switched to three for this one. It's a really good system. It gives you enough time to make a decision about the rest of the day, and it keeps kids in a good rhythm. They get to school and it's lunchtime. We've had some conversations already, like, 'This may have started a new precedent for us,'\" said Morley Stanwood Superintendent Roger Cole.\nMorley Stanwood is among many school districts throughout the state that altered their last day of school to accommodate for the number of snow days called this year. The district was previously getting out June 3; now the last day is June 14.\n\"We hope this is the last big storm of winter,\" Cole said. \"We don't want to put the last day off again.\"\nMecosta County Sheriff Todd Purcell said a number of traffic crashes were reported.\n\"Generally, people stayed indoors and off the roads. There were crashes, but no serious injuries were reported. We got lucky,\" Purcell said.\nNWS forecaster William Marino said the late-season snow was a rarity in the state, with only a couple of recent precedents; in 2005 and 1961. He said it was caused by a mass of cold air from a storm system near Cincinnati, Ohio, climbing north and coming into contract with another mass from the Lake Superior area.\n\"These storms are not unheard of, but they are — for some people, fortunately — infrequent,\" Marino said. \"It's hard to get the right set-up this time of year. A lot of times, when a storm takes that track, they don't have enough cold air to create snow.\"\nBy midday Monday, the temperature in Big Rapids had climbed up near 50 degrees and the sun was out. The situation appeared to be \"back to normal\" for many. State Street Scoops, the ice cream shop in Big Rapids, opened for the season on Monday, and Sophia Johnson and Amy Bell bought some soft-serve to eat, in spite of the snow on the ground.\n\"I wasn't sure if they'd be open, but I thought, if they were, I'm going to get ice cream, whatever the weather is,\" said Johnson, 22, a student at Ferris State University. \"We had a big quiz this morning, so this is in celebration. Sun or snow.\"\nThis week's forecast doesn't appear to be too much nicer than it was on Sunday, according to the NWS. The high on Tuesday is forecast for 52, with rain expected. Temperatures are expected to drop as low as 38. The rest of the week should feature a lot more rain, with the forecasted high topping out at 66 on Thursday and the low predicted to be 48.","domain":"atmospheric_science","round":3}
