Supercharged Heat Domes are appearing all around the Planet! Why? It’s a developing super El Niño combined with a much warmer Earth, spiking natural cycles with extra heat injected into the system and pattern changes augmenting the jet stream. The US will endure one of its most expansive heatwaves in history this week. Then another long lasting record breaking heat dome will plague #Europe again, back to back on its worst #heatwave in its history! With #elnino on top of a heated globe, expect the unexpected this year!!

‼️ LANDFALL 🙏 Scary situation tonight as Super Typhoon BAVI swallows the tiny Island of Rota just north of Guam. The 3D view shows how immense the 180 mph storm is compared to the islands in the path. 2000 people live there. Let’s hope they were able to protect themselves from this behemoth! 🙏 #Bavi #Typhoon #Guam #Rota

‼️ Whopper of a heat dome coming, and that’s no exaggeration! In all aspects: size, longevity, and especially intensity this will be extreme. The heat dome should shatter all-time records for upper level pressure in the Northern Plain States. Actual Temperatures (not heat index) in Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota and South Dakota could hit 110° in spots! The heatwave will peak Sunday through Wednesday. This should come as no surprise, El Nino’s record pace is juicing atmospheric extremes on top of the longterm warming trend. #heatwave #climate

Dueling Heatwaves ‼️ Europe vs the USA in a match no one wants! It’s #Europe ’s most severe #heatwave in history with Germany highs up to 109 this weekend VS the USA where next week will be sweltering with feels like temps up to 115°! All this heat is boosted by the developing strongest El Niño we’ve ever seen, steroids on top of the heating climate! #unitedstates

🔥 Extremes abound around the ring of fire! Sound up ⬆️ The record breaking heat dome in nation’s middle is also called a “ring of fire” for a reason. Because surrounding the fire-y 🔥 heat in its core, is extreme weather circulating around the ring dome. From floods in Texas, to Fires in the Northern Tier, to Thick smoke in the Northeast, this is how extreme heat powers other extremes. Take a look!

💨 Huge Smoke Plume💨 Sound ⬆️ 100s of wildfires expanding near the Canadian border, powered a huge heat dome to the south! These fires are releasing thick smoke, and the heat dome circulation is carrying a plume of smothering smoke across the Great Lakes and Northeast. Cities like New York, Boston and DC will be impacted. Expect very unhealthy air the next few days!! Be safe! #smoke #fire

Florida will be hoarding rain over the next 2 weeks. Some spots may see over a foot! Here’s a detailed look, city by city, at what the latest European model is predicting. These totals won’t be exact, just a general idea of what to expect. One thing seems certain: some major #drought relief is coming! #florida #tropical #rain #storm #florida

An Ocean heatwave larger than the surface of the Moon! SOUND UP! The Pacific Ocean is having a huge heatwave. Most of the central and eastern Tropical Pacific is record hot. The centerpiece is the strongest El Niño ever measured. We’ve already reached Super El Niño threshold and our models say El Niño may surpass History making levels for a full 6 months. On top of our already heated globe, that means supercharged weather through 2027. Follow me for a focus on weather and climate education. #elnino #heatwave

The strongest El Niño in 150 years? Yes, it’s legitimately possible. Not hype. In fact, the “median” forecast for December of all of our computer models combined is slightly “above” the biggest event we know of back in 1877. (+2.9 vs +2.7 using ONI) While this peak intensity may or may not occur, all signs are pointing to a Super El Niño - a “natural” oscillation. That will expel stored heat from the deep Tropical Pacific - on top of significant longterm warming - heating Earth to record levels not measured before in late 2026-2027, powering extreme heat waves, droughts, and rain storms… while also suppressing Atlantic hurricane season 1/ #ElNino #extremeweather #science

We say #snowmageddon as a joke, but if ever there was a time to use it, it’s now!! Watch as the West Coast gets bombarded by at least 5 storms in 15 days, with up to 15 feet of snow in the high Sierra, and that may be an underestimate if the models verify. NWS says 8 feet possible by Wednesday. Incredible! #snow

The “Summer of the Heat Dome”! In the coming 1-2 weeks Florida, Europe, and the Central US will find itself under more sweltering heat domes. So what’s behind all the extreme heat, what #science says, and what can we expect the rest of the summer? Welcome to the one of the hottest summer’s of your lives, and one of the coolest of your future. #heatwave #ElNino #climatechange David Fenton

Record (literally) Heat Dome for May builds over West-Central #Europe the next several days. Peak temperatures will reach 15° above normal in Spain, France and Germany as well as surrounding areas. Maximum temperatures will reach 39°C/ 102°F into next week, with the highest in SW Spain. #heatwave

Get ready to rock and roll! A Sudden Stratospheric Warming is on the way. In about two weeks, temperatures 12 miles up over Canada and Greenland are forecast to spike by 50°F or more. That’s a shockwave in the stratosphere — a rapid disruption of the polar vortex high above the Arctic. When the vortex gets rattled like this, it can send ripples downward through the atmosphere, reshaping the jet stream and eventually stirring up turbulent, high-impact weather patterns at the surface all around the planet. Not every SSW delivers extreme cold or storms, but events this strong often tip the atmosphere into a more chaotic setup in the weeks that follow.

Another record breaking #heatwave bakes #Europe. Temps will reach 45C / 113F in #France under the #heatdome. 1000s of records expected. Here’s a look at the day by day #heatwave forecast in degrees C and F. Europe is the fastest warming continent, warming twice as fast as the global average and record heatwaves are increasing fast on the continent.

There’s been a lot of chatter about the cold blue blob in the North Atlantic lately. Prof. Stefan Rahmstorf 🌏 🦣 just published a paper very recently. The cold blob (warming hole) is not new. But perhaps against the backdrop of blazing red El Niño maps, people are noticing it more. That’s good. It’s a big deal, a canary in the coal mine. Here’s a level headed discussion on the latest science on the #AMOC - potential collapse - yes the cold blue blob in the N Atlantic is very likely due to a slowing of that vital circulation which is responsible for 25% of Northward heat transport. That’s a lot. So any major disruption is a major problem. Maybe watch it at like 1.25-1.5X the speed because my pace was a little slow.

Heat Levels Up! 2 mini heat domes will combine into one bigly mountain of heat across the US. From Chicago to Dalllas to Atlanta to Pittsburgh and everywhere in between get ready to feel the the triple digits. Pictured here are Heat Index numbers (not actual highs) for next week. #heatwave

Epic snowfall in the Pacific NW!! ❄️ Over the next 10 days up to 10 feet will pile up on the higher terrain of British Columbia and Washington. Then another several feet in the 10-15 day period. And it doesn’t stop there. Oregon Montana Wyoming N Cali too! #Whistler #Blackcomb

Huge Pacific Heatwave - larger than North America - with record heat spanning 6,000 miles across, peaking in the East Pacific. The highest anomalies are near the Galápagos Islands, a clear sign a mighty El Niño is beginning. This excess heat infused in the climate system throws everything off-kilter globally, making heatwaves more extreme, floods more intense, but also subduing Atlantic hurricane season. #elnino #heatwave #pacific
