The adverse impact of extreme weather events on African economies are illustrated in two reputable sources for natural catastrophe data. 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.
Insurers 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.”
Aon’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.
“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.
“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”.
In 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.
Even 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.
To 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.
Returning 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.”


It’s been another absolutely jam packed weather week around the world, with Australia hogging most of the headlines in this part of the world after heatwaves, bushfire warnings and hailstorms – to name just a few of the stories coming across the Tasman.
We’ll start the week in the USA, though, and the aftermath of last weeks’ almost nationwide snowfall – where in Buffalo, New York, the worries were around the melting of already fallen snow rather than any fresh storms.
Swift-water rescue teams and helicopters were put on standby in western New York in case anyone was caught in a suden deluge.
New York Gov. 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.
About 700,000 people were under a flood warning until Wednesday.
Staying Stateside, and geologists have been studying an alarming increase in the number of earthquakes across the country so far in 2014.
CNN’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!
Over to our Aussie cousins, then, where it’s all been happening across the ditch this week.
First 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.
Longreach 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.
Cunnamulla also had its hottest November day since records began in 1907, with 44.1 degrees.
Over 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.
Parts of Sydney were then lashed by a storm on Monday afternoon, which resulted in ambulance crews treating several people who were struck by lightning.
Three people were struck and at least 15,000 Sydney properties were left without power after the storm, which included about 3,000 lightning strikes.
Then 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.
A 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.
Check out some incredible footage of the hail’s power below:
Back 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.
Dozens of flights in and out of the city were cancelled, while the Taranaki Community Rescue Helicopter was also grounded by heavy fog in Raglan.
We 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.
Those 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.
Check out the outlook for the whole country, here.
We’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.
Wasps, 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!
And 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.
Dr 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.
She says that makes storms much more dangerous, and central government has to guide local councils so they know how to prepare.

I’m bloging this afternoon, so that must mean that something interesting is happening!
It’s Tuesday and believe it or not storms are already firing up across the Ohio valley regions, I’m tracking all of the latest and the latest models and discussions are indicative that there will be rampant clusters of storms developing along the I-65 corridor and tracking towards the Northeast. Here is a look at what the FUTURERAD depicts:
According to the models, I think most of the energy will be centered around the Ohio River Valley, and Northern Kentucky, and especially eastern Kentucky will be dealing with most of the action. I‘m really highlighting zones as far as Louisville, and other counties along the I-71 corridor, that’s where the “bull’s-eye” will set for the most part. Around 3-4pm. Most of the storms will become more organized across central Kentucky.
The Storm Prediction Center has placed alot of our reading audience, and all of Central Kentucky for that matter, under a SLIGHT risk for severe weather.
Here are some things to think about
– A Few Tornadoes
And like always, I will be on standby and tracking the latest. Be sure to follow me on twitter @dariusmack_wx
Or follow up with me and my colleagues on Foot’s Forecast| Central Kentucky.


Heavy rains, lightning and thunderstorms caused scattered power outages after rolling through Central Texas on Monday.
According to Oncor, the storm caused fewer than 100 power outages in Killeen, Harker Heights and Copperas Cove.
“We really came out on top,” said Carl Green, a spokesman for Oncor.
The majority of outages took place Monday afternoon in Killeen and Copperas Cove.
Killeen spokeswoman Hilary Shine said no major damage occurred in the city.
Dan Shoemaker, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Fort Worth, said Killeen received 1.6 inches of rain at the Killeen-Fort Hood Regional Airport and 1.42 inches fell just southwest of Killeen on Monday. Bell County averaged about 2.5 inches of rain on Sunday.
Rain continued through Tuesday with some scattered showers, and a 20 to 30 percent chance of showers continues through today. Following the heavy rains, Belton Lake, which has a capacity of 594 feet, was at 584.4 feet — down 9.6 feet. Stillhouse Hollow Lake, which has a capacity of 622 feet, was at 612.2 feet — down 9.8 feet.
Ronnie Bruggman, who manages the area lakes for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, said he’s thankful for what has fallen so far — although it’s not enough yet to bring the lake levels up.
“The rain we’ve received so far is great for the crops and helps to saturate the ground, which will lead to getting us the runoff needed to benefit the lakes,” Bruggman said. “If we get good, hard rain this week, that will help.”
Temple received almost 2 inches of rain over the Memorial Day weekend, and other parts of the county received more than 5 inches, according to the National Weather Service.
“The creek has been up and down a few feet with each small rain event, but there have not been wild swings in elevation or anything approaching flood stage,” Belton spokesman Paul Romer said in reference to Nolan Creek.
The recent rainfall helped some farmers and hindered others this week, Bell County Extension agent Lyle Zoeller said Tuesday.
“Farmers with corn, grain sorghum, hay crops and cotton are benefitting from the rain, but it is interfering with farmers with oats and wheat,” Zoeller said. “Extended moisture will cause mature wheat to sprout in the head, causing some dockage in price when the farmer goes to sell it.”
Area law enforcement agencies and emergency responders were kept busy with accidents Tuesday morning, especially in the Salado area, Salado firefighter A.J. Lopez said.
“The accidents were all on rain-slick roads and caused by people following too close and driving too fast,” Lopez said.
An eight-vehicle accident on northbound Interstate 35 near mile marker 283 closed down the roadway for about two hours.
FME News Service contributed to this report.


EAST PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) — As Tuesday’s storm brought heavy rain, snow, and winds to our area, Breaking News One was out monitoring the road conditions.
Slippery and snow covered roads have made travel more difficult. Colonel Ann Assumpico, Superintendent of State Police and Director of Public Safety continues to urge drivers to stay off the roads if possible and to give plows plenty of room. Several inches of snow have been reported across much of the state with increased snowfall and wind speeds steadily increasing.
Rhode Island State Police have reported four minor accidents across the state. No injuries or major incidents have been reported as of 11 a.m.
Troopers were also called to assist a motorist whose car was off the road. Troopers in Wickford, Hope Valley and Lincoln barracks have responded to several accidents.

The much-dreaded Polar Vortex is set to return to the midwest and east coast this week, bringing even more freezing temperatures to the winter-weary populace.
According to an alert from the National Weather service, the cold blast is set to arrive in the northern plains on Monday and spread to the east coast by Wednesday, bringing temperatures 10 to 30 degrees below normal for this time of year, USA Today reports.
The Midwest can expect high temperatures in the single digits this week, while the eastern corridor will see highs in the 20s and 30s and lows in the low teens. Alabama and Mississippi may see freezing temperatures by Thursday, Weather.com reports.
Oh, and there’s some snow on the horizon, too. The east coast from the Appalachians north-eastwards may see snowstorms as early as Wednesday.

MEXICO CITY – Mexico's government airlifted thousands of stranded foreign tourists out of the hurricane-ravaged resort of Los Cabos, as a weakened Odile headed over the Gulf of California Wednesday on a path toward the U.S. state of Arizona.
The remnants of Odile, which has been downgraded from a Category 3 hurricane to a tropical storm, are expected to reach Arizona Wednesday evening and strike hardest in the Tucson area, though forecasters said that Phoenix could get lashed with rain and heavy winds as well.
In Mexico, military and commercial planes were carrying travelers out through the Los Cabos international airport, which remained closed to commercial flights due to damage suffered when Odile tore through the area late Sunday and Monday.
Travelers were being flown free of charge to airports in Tijuana, Mazatlan, Guadalajara and Mexico City to catch connecting flights and, in the case of foreigners, receive consular assistance.
Fatai Oshi-Ojuri, a tourist from Oakland, California who came to Mexico with his girlfriend to celebrate his 30th birthday, was among the first to get out on a Federal Police jet.
He said the airport in Los Cabos was a mess with roof panels and electrical wiring down, and signs and windows shattered.
"That was like a scene from 'The Walking Dead,'" he said by phone from Mazatlan, where he was waiting for an Alaska Airlines flight to Los Angeles.
Officials estimated it would take two days to ferry out the 30,000 tourists who were being put up in temporary refuges or hotel areas converted to shelters. Some 26,000 of those were foreigners, primarily from the United States, Canada and Great Britain.
Thousands 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.
President Enrique Pena Nieto was scheduled to tour the area later.
Emergency 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.
By 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.
The 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).
Farther 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.
Meanwhile 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.

Snow starts to fall, potential for up to 12 inches in metro-east
Heavy snow fell across the region Friday, prompting early dismissals at area schools and pretreating of roads and bridges as residents braced for up to a foot of snow.
Snow was expected to fall throughout the night and most of the day Saturday before tapering off later in the day. A snowfall rate of an inch an hour would mean 9 to 12 inches in many inches by midday, according to KTVI Fox 2.
As 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.
Traffic 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.
In 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.
IDOT 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.
Late Friday, Illinois State Police reported a traffic fatality at U.S. 40 and Lake Road.
Captain 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.
Since 3 p.m., 75 crashes were reported across the metro-east, Tyler said.
The 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.
<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>
It’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.
The 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.
The 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.
Illinois 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.
IDOT, Illinois State Police and local law enforcement agencies were encouraging people to avoid traveling in the storm.
For some, there was no choice.
At 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.
Scott Air Force Base was operating under mission-essential only status from 2 p.m. Friday through Saturday.
Several schools sent students home early because of the pending inclement weather, including in Belleville, East St. Louis, Edwardsville and Collinsville.
Belleville East and West high schools dismissed students at 1:30 p.m. Friday, and their after-school events for Friday and Saturday were canceled.
East 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.
The East St. Louis Senior High School basketball games against Vashon High School were rescheduled for Monday night.
Classes 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.
Storm affecting much of Midwest
The 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.
The 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.
Large sections of Missouri, Illinois and Indiana are under winter weather advisories, and hazardous travel conditions are expected through most of the weekend.
Sally 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.
The 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.
St. 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.
Kansas 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.
In 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).
And 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.
Warming centers will be available to those who need them through Saturday, according to the St. Clair County Emergency Management Agency. They include:
▪ Belleville Public Library, S. Jackson and E. Washington streets in Belleville.
▪ West Branch Public Library, 3414 W. Main St. in Belleville.
▪ Cahokia Public Library, 140 Cahokia Park Drive in Cahokia.
▪ East St. Louis Public Library, 5300 State St. in East St. Louis.
▪ The Salvation Army, 616 N. 16th St. in East St. Louis.
▪ Fairview Heights Public Library, 10017 Bunkum Road in Fairview Heights.
▪ Lebanon Public Library, 314 W. St. Louis St. in Lebanon.
▪ O’Fallon Public Library, 120 Civic Plaza in O’Fallon.
Snow plow crews
While the storm is bringing a big job for snow plow truck drivers, the Illinois Department of Transportation workers can find some respite from one metro-east restaurant.
Sugarfire 64 barbecue at 1425 N. Green Mount Road in O’Fallon announced it will give a free order of brisket tacos to all Illinois Department of Transportation snow crew members on Saturday.

Hurricane Irene upgraded to Category 3
RICHMOND, Va. (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.
The 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.
"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."

Forecasters have yet to pinpoint where the hurricane will make landfall. It is currently a Category 3 storm with winds of 120 mph.
Officials 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.
Predicting 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.
Officials 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.
Old 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.
In 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.
Jimmy 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.
"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."
Stephanie Newsom, morning manager at the Colonial Inn, said 188 of the 214 rooms were still reserved for the weekend.
"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."
Pam 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.
Capps said he was encouraging customers to wait at least until Thursday to decide whether to cancel reservations.
If at that time it appears Virginia Beach will be hit hard, Capps is in favor of customers canceling or rescheduling their visit.
"If it's going to be serious, I want the building empty," he said.
National 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.
"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.
He said that on Tuesday, the hurricane appeared headed more toward the Norfolk area.
"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.
The U.S. Coast Guard suggested residents buy a battery-operated National Weather Service radio to keep up with storm reports if they lose power.
Coast 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.
Navy ships, aircraft in Irene's path set to move
NORFOLK, 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.
The Navy said Wednesday night that the order applies to ships in southeastern Virginia. It is home to the largest naval base in the world.
The Navy says Irene's current track shows destructive winds and a dangerous storm surge are predicted to hit the area.
It 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.
Earlier, 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.
"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."
Coastal NC county orders tourists out for Irene
HATTERAS, N.C. (AP) - Officials in North Carolina's coastal Dare County say tourists must leave as Hurricane Irene approaches.
The 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.
County 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.
Forecasts have Irene moving over the Outer Banks with winds over 100 mph Saturday. Evacuations began Wednesday from Ocracoke Island in Hyde County.
"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."

Transportation workers prepare for snowfall
With the snowfall expected across the Heartland, a winter weather advisory has been issued for the Kirksville area.
This is our first snowfall of the season and Amy Crawford from Missouri Department of Transportation says they are preparing to treat the roads to ensure your commute is as safe as possible.
â??We have individuals in our maintenance forces that are getting the trucks ready, getting the spreaders in the trucks and making sure the equipment is prepared and ready to go, so that when it does start to snow and freezing conditions that they can just get in the trucks and get out there.â??
Crawford says MoDOT workers will be monitoring the storm around the clock tonight.
They usually start pre-treating the roads, but with this storm bringing rain first, it would wash away the brine.


Gainesville TV stations -- including TV20 and Channel 51 -- put the "crawl'' along the bottom of the screen whenever there's an emergency weather situation. Most radio stations in the area break into normal programming with weather bulletins.
But 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.
``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.
Letro 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.
``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.
The 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.


US 441 (Newfound Gap Rd) is temporarily closed this morning due to downed trees courtesy of last night’s high winds. Hopefully the NPS crews can make quick work of it so visitors in town for the holiday can come enjoy the park.
Sunday was a day spent in the clouds with occasional rain showers, the bulk of which passed through during the night. The mountain received 1.1” of rainfall, not nearly as much as compared to our neighboring states to the north who appeared to be getting dumped on all day. Temps were quite stable much of the afternoon, hovering in the upper 40s. Our high eventually topped out at 49° and our low managed to dip down to 32°. Current conditions are mostly cloudy skies with mountain tops poking through varying levels of the atmosphere, with temps starting out in the mid 30s.
With less than ideal conditions for gallivanting around the forest, yesterday made for a great opportunity to catch up on some camp chores and keeping cozy in the kitchen. That means baking and reading!


A heat warning was in effect today for eastern Riverside County, where temperatures are forecast to exceed the century mark through next week.
The warning was issued Monday for desert areas in the eastern end of the county, including Cabazon, Palm Springs, Palm Desert, La Quinta, Cathedral City and Blythe, Danyte Mockus of the Riverside County Department of Public Health said.
With temperatures forecast to remain above 100 degrees through Aug. 2, cool centers will be open, according to the DPH, which issues heat warnings when temperatures are forecast to be above 100 degrees for three to five consecutive days.
The Department of Public Health reminded residents to be mindful of signs of heat distress, such as headaches, dizziness, muscle weakness or cramps and nausea or vomiting, and to drink plenty of water to prevent dehydration.
The DPH also recommends avoiding direct sunlight, closing blinds or curtains to minimize the heat and visiting malls, libraries or restaurants to stay cool.
Children, the elderly, disabled persons or animals should never be left inside unattended vehicles.
A complete listing of cool centers is available here, or by calling (888) 636-8676. Residents are encouraged to check with their local cool centers for weekend hours.


Storm Center Update - Friday PM
November 11, 2011, 2:58 PM
Warm temperatures will continue for the first half of the weekend, but cooler air will quickly return for Sunday. Highs on Saturday will easily make the fifties and sixties but temperatures will cool at least ten degrees on Sunday. As the cooler air moves in, an isolated shower will be possible in north central and northeast South Dakota Saturday night. Anything that falls will stay very light. The Hills of western South Dakota will have a chance at light snow during that time.
A quick hit of warmer air will move into KELOLAND on Monday, but don’t expect any fifties. Highs on Monday will probably return to average, but another push of cooler weather is in the works for Tuesday and Wednesday.

There are eleven meteor showers that are considered to be the principal displays of the year, and in early January you'll have a chance to see one of these meteor showers in full effect.
According to the folks at NASA, in order to be considered as one of the top meteor showers of the year, it must produce a minimum of at least 10 meteors per hour.
We just experienced what astronomers call the mother of all meteor showers, the Geminids Meteor Shower that produced up to 120 meteors per hour. 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.
But 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.
Now 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.
So 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.
Here'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.
Here's a look at some video of last years Quadratids Meteor Shower.

After a day of historic verdicts, it's time to take the threat that air pollution poses to people living in London's poorest areas seriously, argues Huck's Politics Editor, Ben Smoke.
We speak with journalist and author Beth Gardiner about the health effects that come with breathing dirty air – an issue responsible for seven million premature deaths every year.
Air pollution levels are dangerously high, and thousands of people are dying. Last night campaigners in London shut down a street outside the Department of Transport, to call on the government to take action.
Arrests have been made this morning, as campaigners scale some of London's most well known statues to call time on dangerous air pollution levels.
A new Erin Brockovich-style documentary exploring the damaging effects of pollution in China is sweeping the nation with concern.


Widespread damaging and locally destructive winds, including potentially multiple small and fast-moving tornadoes hit South Australia
Widespread damaging and locally destructive winds including potentially multiple small and fast-moving tornadoes battered parts of South Australia, causing significant tree and property damage across Adelaide, particularly the southern suburbs, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology reports.
South Australia has again experienced a wet and very windy few days due to the passage of multiple low pressure systems and cold fronts since Thursday, July 22, 2021.
"On Saturday we saw widespread damaging and locally destructive winds, including potentially multiple small and fast-moving tornadoes, causing significant tree and property damage across Adelaide particularly, the southern suburbs," said Tina Donaldson, BOM's Senior Meteorologist.
"At this stage, looking at radar evidence and damage patterns, they indicate there were multiple small and fast-moving tornadoes along a cold front that moved through around midday. The showers and thunderstorms associated with the front produced narrow paths of damaging to destructive winds."
A wet and very windy day for #SouthAustralia today. A fast-moving cold front with showers, thunderstorms and strong winds can be seen on satellite imagery west of Kangaroo Island moving eastwards over the state today. A #SevereWeatherWarning is current https://t.co/5wxFrWeCue pic.twitter.com/1BpqAIIvZQ
— Bureau of Meteorology, South Australia (@BOM_SA) July 23, 2021
"Large amounts of small hail settled on the ground could have been mistaken for snow, particularly in the Adelaide Hills region, however, observations suggest small hail was more likely. Small hail was also reported across the Adelaide metropolitan area," Donaldson said.
"This system also saw showers and rainfall across the state. The highest rainfall totals in the 24 hours to 09:00 LT on Sunday, July 25 were 42 mm (1.6 inches) at Ashton, 40 mm (1.5 inches) at Lenswood, and 33 mm (1.2 inches) at Balhannah.
12 mm (0.47 inches) was observed at Adelaide West Terrace/Ngayirdapira.
Some of the most significant observations:
- Gusts of 90 – 100 km/h (56 – 62 mph) were recorded across parts of southern South Australia, including Adelaide and the Mount Lofty Ranges.
- The highest gust recorded in the Adelaide area was 95 km/h (59 mph) at Adelaide Airport on Saturday evening.
- The highest gust in SA since Thursday was 107 km/h (66 mph) at Cape Borda and 135 km/h (84 mph) at Neptune Island.

Typhoon "Lingling", one of the most intense storms to hit South Korea, hit Jeju island and passed along the country's coast on September 7, 2019, causing power disruptions and killing at least three people. The quick-moving storm headed towards North Korea afterward where it made final landfall.
The storm moved at 49 km/h (30 mph) as it headed north, according to the Ministry of Interior and Safety. Over 127 000 homes were affected by power interruptions.
One of the victims was identified as a 75-year old woman in Boryeong town, South Korea, who died after being slammed against the wall 30 meters (98 ft) away by extreme winds.
Another victim, a 39-year old in Incheon city, was crushed by a collapsed wall.
A 61-year old Chinese national victim was killed after being slammed by a torn-up roof in the town of Paju, near the border.
Furthermore, at least 10 people are undergoing treatment for sustained injuries. Two of them are an elderly couple from Boryeong town who were hit by a collapsed steel scaffolding.
38 people in Gwangju city near the capital Seoul was forced to evacuate after their homes got submerged in floodwaters.
Over 100 emergency-related calls were reported in Incheon, most were about damaged walls, toppled trees, and blown-off boards.
Meanwhile, five vehicles were reportedly destroyed in Wonju city and ten in Namwon.
The storm had gone overseas 430 km (267 miles) southwest of Jeju Island with a speed of 38 km/h (23 mph) as of 15:00 local time (06:00 UTC).
According to reports, it moved with maximum wind speed was at 161 km/h (100 mph), which was powerful enough to topple trees. Incheon International Airport in Seoul has canceled over 250 flights.
The Korea Meteorological Association said that the speed may increase up to 198 km/h (123 mph). "Record-breaking winds will be seen at islands and southern and western coastal areas," the weather agency added.
Lingling headed west coast and then made landfall in North Korea in the afternoon. The storm is predicted to cause heavier damages as it moves through North Korea.
The country's central news agency stated that President Kim Jong Un urgently called an emergency meeting on September 6 prior to the landfall to plan disaster prevention measures.

21 Bulgarian Cities on Alert over High Dust Levels
High dust levels were registered in a total of 21 Bulgarian cities on Thursday, authorities say.
Readings of harmful particle levels showed that fine dust levels were above the norm in Sofia, Plovdiv, Pernik, Burgas, Varna, Plaven, Ruse, Blagoevgrad, Nesebar, Devnya, Dobrich, Gorna Oryahovitsa, Vratsa, Vidin, Lovech, Smolyan, Stara Zagora, Sliven, Dimitrovgrad, Kardzhali and Shumen.
EU's standard threshold value for fine dust is 50 microgram per cubic metre in a 24-hour period.
The highest value measured in Bulgaria on Thursday was at Sofia's busy Eagles' Bridge intersection - 8.37 times above that norm.
An expert has told dnevnik.bg that people's health is not in danger, unless they are constantly exposed to high dust levels.
Long exposure to high levels of fine dust can lead to irritations of the respiratory tract, coughs and headache.

~I just got an e-mail from a friend in County Kerry, Ireland who reports that they've hardly had summer there. Checking with Weather Underground:
60! That's winter weather here, LOL!
Meanwhile, it's 100 degrees in the coastal plain. It was 78 degrees at 5:45 AM with humidity around 80% and I was drenched in perspiration by the first mile of my walk. Time to make more gelato. The first batch from last night disappeared as soon as it was done freezing.
UPDATE 18:45: My friend replied to say that it was actually a fine day today. Dublin had received continuous rain from 11 June to 29 July which is a record.


Is the snow accumulation more than you bargained for this morning?
It caused the Yorktown and Lakeland school districts to operate on a 2-hour delay Friday morning.
According to the National Weather Service, the snow was expected to stop at noon on Friday. Forecaster predict heavy rains on Saturday, but temperatures will be in the high near 57. Sunday will be mostly sunny, with a high near 45.

(NEW YORK) — A Minnesota snowstorm turned highways and roads into a slippery destruction derby in which at least 261 vehicle crashes were reported in an 18-hour period, authorities said.
The traffic mayhem occurred as the first significant snowstorm of the season dumped about an inch of fresh powder across the Twin Cities area and farther north on Sunday, officials said.
“Roads are slippery and many driving too fast for conditions,” Sgt. Jesse Grabow, a spokesperson for the Minnesota State Patrol, said in a Twitter post on Sunday night that included a photo of a jackknifed tractor-trailer rig blocking lanes on Interstate 94 near Rothsay close to the Minnesota-North Dakota border.
The Minnesota State Patrol reported 26 people were injured in the vehicle crashes that occurred between 5 p.m. on Saturday and 11 p.m. on Sunday. No fatalities were reported.
Busy state troopers also responded to another 115 vehicle spin-outs and four jackknifed tractor-trailer rigs during the chaotic time span, officials said.
“Everyone is a rookie on the first snow. People running stop signs, stop lights and you got the people that are overcautious,” Josh Hicks, a Minnesota driver who braved the treacherous conditions, told ABC affiliate station KTSP-TV in St. Paul.
The National Weather Service is forecasting sunny skies and frigid weather in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area today with temperatures around 7 degrees. Blustery winds will make it feel minus-13 degrees, according to the weather service.
There is a 50% chance of more snow hitting the area on Tuesday, according to the weather service forecast.

[NFA] Tropical Storm Isaias killed at least four people on Tuesday as it made its way up the U.S. Atlantic Coast, including two deaths at a North Carolina trailer park that was struck by a tornado spun off by hurricane-force winds. This report produced by Yahaira Jacquez.
The 2020 campaign is coming to an end tonight. In the East Coast of the country polls are starting to close. Battlegrounds like Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, and Ohio will see results start to trickle in. Polls are also closed in Indiana, Kentucky, South Carolina, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia and in most of North Carolina and Florida. CNN projects Trump will win the state of Indiana and its 11 electoral votes. Over 100 million Americans voted before the polls opened on November 3rd, 2020.

The next three years provide the “last chance” to limit global warming to safe limits in this century, the United Nations said, as it geared up for a conference in Morocco intended to carry forward the Paris agreement on climate change.
Unless nations move before 2020 to cut their emissions more aggressively than they have promised, the window of opportunity will close and the job that lies ahead will become more costly, it said.
The annual “emissions gap” report compares the goals of the treaty to the pledges of its signatories. In it, the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) warned that unless reductions in carbon pollution from the energy sector are reduced swiftly and steeply, it will be nearly impossible to keep warming below 2 degrees, let alone to the 1.5 degree aspiration.
UN Climate Talks: The Annual Ritual
Each year since 1995, the nations of the world have gathered to try to reach a global agreement on carbon dioxide emissions. These ‘Conferences of the Parties’, or COPs as they are usually termed, involve all of the members of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change and take place towards the end of the year. This year will see the twenty-second COP take place in Marrakesh. Over the years the COPs have developed a style all of their own. Indeed, some observers have even gone as far as to suggest that each year sees less and less by way of meaningful activity, and more and more liturgy and ritual. They may just have a point.


United Kingdom Weather Guide
UK weather is infamous for being cold, wet, windy and shadowed by an ever-present grey cloud. For the most part this is true; however, on occasion dazzling weather can transform the landscape regardless of the season and may even last for many weeks. Sun or no sun, you’re going to need to wrap up warmly during the winter no matter where you are in the UK. 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.
Season and Clothing
Winter: November to February
Winter 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.
Spring: March to April
Spring 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.
Summer: May to August
The 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!
Autumn: September to October
In 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.

- The Bureau of Meteorology is expecting above average rainfall, floods
- Cyclones also expected in Queensland as La Nina sets in over the summer
- Luckily the wet weather will dampen risks of dangerous bush fires
Queensland is set to transform from a sunburnt country into a land of flooding rains this summer.
Forecasters warn that La Nina will dampen the state's bushfire season, but create a more intense storm and cyclone season this summer.
The Bureau of Meteorology's Laura Boekel is expecting higher than average rainfall to cause higher than average flooding, and more than four cyclones to form in the Coral Sea.
'Even though the bushfire season is still ongoing and has affected parts of Queensland, it's a lot less severe than what we saw last year and we are expecting more flooding and more tropical cyclones this season,' she told reporters on Monday.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the government was preparing for increased risk of floods and cyclones (pictured, floods on October 27 in Brisbane)
Forecasters warn that La Nina will dampen the state's bushfire season (pictured, a blaze in Peregian Springs in September 2019) but create a more intense storm and cyclone season
Ms Boekel said it was difficult to say which particular areas would experience the most intense rainfall.
Monsoon troughs and tropical lows would primarily affect the north, but she said any lows moving down the coast could bring flooding to the southeast.
'It's very difficult to say, and the message would be that all of Queensland should prepare for what the season could bring because there's no one area that is exempt from severe weather,' Ms Boekel said.
The meteorologist said that typically one to two cyclones form the in Gulf of Carpentaria and about four form in the Coral Sea.
Queenslanders were urged to draw up their own household emergency plans, pack emergency kits and check their insurance cover (pictured, flooding in Brisbane on October 27)
Ms Boekel is forecasting that there will be more tropical cyclones forming off Queensland's east coast this summer.
However, this season was still unlikely to resemble 2010/11 when the state was hit with severe floods and Cyclone Yasi.
'This severe weather season is different, so the catchments aren't as flooded as what we've seen (in 2011) and we have just entered into the La Nina as well,' she said.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said the government was preparing for increased risk of floods and cyclones.
She urged Queenslanders to draw up their own household emergency plans, pack emergency kits and check their insurance cover.
'We need to make sure we've got everything prepared ... for the summer season,' Ms Palaszczuk told cabinet on Monday.
'We just need to make sure that the regions are ready as well.'
The heavy rainfall is likely to keep bushfires (pictured in Kuranda, Cairns in 2019) at bay, but cause flooding and other damage

Another heavy snowfall hit Austria. In East Tyrol, a building that was used as a warehouse collapsed due to heavy snowfall.
In Linz, a warehouse that was built in a home on Saturday night collapsed due to the weight of the snow. The rubble was searched by search dogs, but it turned out that the only inhabitant of the house was not in the house at the time of the accident. Writes Crown.
In Linz, it has almost 2 meters of snow this winter. In comparison, in the average winter, there is 42 cm of snow in the area.
Photos have been sent to a weather site from Iselsberg near Lienz showing snow that has reached the top of the house.
Due to the risk of snowfall and avalanches, the Felbertauern Road, an important link between the Tyrol and Salzburg counties, had to be closed. A car was also buried in an avalanche. Luckily, mountain rescuers followed, managing to free the driver – Writes orf.at.
The avalanche also started at St.Jakob in Divergence, but no damage was done.
The neighboring province of Carinthia also contains an incredible amount of snow in December He fell. Around the town of Cutscatch-Mouth, three meters of snow fell in the Lesch Valley this winter. In addition, meteorologists expect more heavy snowfall in the coming days. Many roads are closed due to heavy snow, and many can only be walked on snow chains in Carinthia.


Today was finally feeling like spring as spring should feel!! Average high for Boston this time of year is 58°, and we were just one degree ABOVE that. NICE. No seabreeze to knock down temps at the coastline, plenty of sunshine, no humidity… I think even the grumpiest of weather nay-sayers were enjoying this Saturday (because the Twitter trolls have been mighty quiet tonight)! We’ll do it again tomorrow, and may even add a couple of degrees to today’s highs – but the one “fly in the ointment” is that a seabreeze will be knocking temps down along the coastline tomorrow. If you’re near the water, I’d plan on afternoon temps in the low to mid 50s.
It’s a cold and clear night ahead of us, with temps in the 30s for most. Typically, the coastline and SE Mass would’ve seen the last spring freeze by today (according to climatological averages) – but it’s been so cold lately, the growing season has been delayed for another few days. If this nice weather has you jonesin’ to get into the garden and get things growing, I’d hold off for another week or so to be on the safe side.
How about some stargazing tonight? The moon isn’t very bright tonight and it sets at 1:39am, so if you head outside in the pre-dawn hours of Sunday morning, you could catch a good show in the night sky. It’s the peak of the Lyrid Meteor Shower:
Lots of sunshine and highs in the 60s in the next few days, but then we’ll track some rain on Wednesday. That rain tonight is in the Plains and will take the “scenic route” to get here. In the meantime, enjoy spring! – Breezy

India to report 34 million job losses due to severe heat waves by 2030: World Bank
Extreme heat waves are increasing with alarming frequency across India in the past few decades and soon the country may become one of the first places in the world to experience heat waves that break the human survivability limit, a World Bank report said.
The report titled “Climate Investment Opportunities in India’s Cooling Sector“, said that severe heat waves are responsible for thousands of deaths across the country, where higher temperatures are arriving early and staying for far longer periods.
“In April 2022, India was plunged into the grip of a punishing early spring heat wave that brought the country to a standstill, with temperatures in the capital, New Delhi, topping 46 degrees Celsius. The month of March, which witnessed extraordinary spikes in temperatures, was the hottest ever recorded,” it said.
The 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.
“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.
The 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.

ANDOVER — Snow continues to fall at midday today and isn't expected to slow down until tonight.
"It could reach the 12-inch mark the way things are going now," said Andy Wall, city engineer for Lawrence who is filling in for the vacationing public works director, John Isensee. "It's supposed to continue right through the evening, and by midnight be completely out of here."
Until then, he said, the city has all available city-owned snowplowing apparatus out, along with an additional 20 or so private plows. He estimated that the early part of the storm dropped about 8 inches in Lawrence.
"Basically, the roads are passable now," Wall said. "The roads are pretty much down to wet pavement, with maybe a little snow falling and melting on them."
On the day before the first day of spring, Mother Nature visited the region with a last blast of winter, dropping over a half-foot of snow across the Merrimack Valley by 8 a.m., canceling school and causing traffic problems on highways and back roads. The Weather Channel reports that the snow will slow down through the early part of the afternoon and pick up again later today, not stopping until 8 or 9 tonight.
The early part of the storm caused significant problems on area highways.
State Police reported 15 to 20 accidents on I-93 and 495 today, mostly spinouts into the median or off to the side of the highways, requiring winch-out by a tow truck. Only a couple of people were taken to area hospitals complaining of back and neck pain, according to Trooper Dan O'Brien of the Andover barracks.
The accidents started happening around midnight, and didn't let up until mid-morning, he said. Most of them, about 70 percent, took place on I-93.
Along the northern stretch of I-95 and the northern portion of 495, however, things were a little better. There, only 7 spinouts, mostly on 95, took place during the early part of the storm, according to the dispatcher at the Newbury barracks. No injuries were reported in those accidents.
