🌊 El Niño in the tropical Pacific continues to... strengthen According to NOAA/CPC, sea-surface temperatures off the coast of Peru and around the Galápagos Islands are more than 3°C above the long-term average. According to the WMO’s monthly Global Seasonal Climate Update, El Niño is expected to continue strengthening and develop into a strong event during August–October 2026. A positive Indian Ocean Dipole is also forecast. During this phase, the western tropical Indian Ocean is warmer than average, while the eastern part is cooler than average. The WMO warns that a strengthening El Niño increases the likelihood of heatwaves, drought, heavy rainfall, and other extreme weather events, with impacts varying by region. 🌡️ Above-normal temperatures: expected across most inhabited land areas of the world. 💧 Wetter-than-normal conditions: western North America, central South America, southern Europe, and North Africa. ☀️ Drier-than-normal conditions: Central America, northern South America, northern Europe, parts of central Africa, India, and southern and eastern Australia.show more

‼️ Category 5 Ocean Heatwaves in the Tropical Pacific... and #Mediterranean. The culprits: Super #ElNiño and severe #European heatwaves, boosted by excess heat trapped in our overheated climate system. A NOAA Alert Level 5 indicates a marine #heatwave severe enough to cause near-complete coral mortality, with more than 80% of corals expected to die. This maximum tier in the NOAA Coral Reef Watch system is triggered by extreme, prolonged ocean temperatures. A new study just released by World Weather Attribution says extreme Mediterranean heatwaves are now 3°C/ 5°F+ hotter than they used to be, and would have been virtually impossible before modern warming. #elninoshow more

A new report puts a hard number on what... rising heat is expected to cost in human lives. By 2050, extreme heat driven by climate change could kill an extra 430,000 people every year. The heaviest toll falls on the poorest countries, where many people have no electricity and no way to cool their homes. Hundreds of millions are expected to be exposed to heat that the human body simply cannot handle for long.show more

Maintaining a steady throttle for long periods can fatigue... a rider's wrist, especially during highway cruising. An aftermarket throttle lock provides a simple mechanical way to hold the grip in position without constant pressure from the rider's hand. The device works through a small locking mechanism activated by a dedicated button. When pressed, it creates controlled friction against the throttle tube, allowing the engine input to remain consistent while the rider relaxes their grip or adjusts hand position. Control can be restored instantly using the separate release button or by manually rolling the throttle. This ensures the motorcycle continues to respond normally while offering a practical comfort aid for extended riding conditions. Video Credit: bangyee3996show more

Genesis of a Super El Niño! Why do we... expect this El Niño to be one of the strongest on record? - A main reason: Huge subsurface heat - exceeding most anything we’ve observed in spring - motoring eastward from the deep Western Tropical Pacific Ocean to the East Pacific and emerging at the surface. This is rapidly warming the El Niño region. This is how El Niño forms - it’s not new, it’s just supercharged. This matches most computer model forecasts for a historic El Niño pattern, throwing Earth’s climate patterns off-kilter. Expect robust effects of El Niño to begin this summer and maximize this fall and winter. The aim of the visual is to help people orient to subsurface views, tough to do without a frame of reference.

Heatwave Grips France and Europe! Europe is facing an... intense heatwave, with temperatures reaching close to 35-40°C in several countries. France has reported over 1,000 heat-related deaths, with older adults among the most affected. Due to legal complications and surging demand of air conditioners, coolers, and fans - shortages and huge price surge reported in many areas amplifying problem. Retailers have reported fast-selling cooling appliances as households scramble to cope with the extreme heat which price of fan rocketing to 70k in some areas. Meanwhile, French authorities and the EU urge people to use less AC to "protect the climate." In some EU countries, using your AC at home can even result in a fine. The extreme heat has also disrupted transport, strained power supplies, impacted agriculture, and lowered river levels across parts of Europe.show more

Rare home video footage of Grace Kelly while on... vacation with her family in Ocean City, New Jersey, clips from the mid-1930s and early-1940s. She would have been around 12 years old in the first few clips and 7-8 years old in the last one. Their seaside summer home in Ocean City certainly represented a place of fun memories and happy gatherings. The Kelly's spent time along the shore, swimming in the ocean and playing in the sand. In her teenage years, Grace worked as a waitress at The Chatterbox, an iconic American restaurant in Ocean City. Grace referred to it as her “favorite summer resort”, where, even after she transitioned to Princess of Monaco, she found herself returning to with Rainier and their children for family reunions. It is such a comfort to know that today the former Kelly residence still stands and looks the same as it did in those days.show more

Big dawg El Niño coming this summer and fall!... This is a bit science-y… but easy I promise. So follow along. You are looking at a vertical cross section of the tropical Pacific Ocean at the Equator with depth downward deep into the ocean. Left side is west near Asia. Right side is east near South America. It’s where we measure El Niño, the king control knob of the climate. One main way we know it’s coming is “subsurface heat”. See the dark red shades moving east under the surface and rising upward? That’s the El Niño developing! El Niño is a build up of hotter than normal water on the surface Eastern Tropical Pacific Ocean. What’s cool (or hot) is that the water comes from the West Tropical Pacific. During cool La Niña years it’s like a piggy bank. The West Pacific hoards and stores the heat near Asia. Then every couple-few years that warm water sloshes back East. It first appears under the surface where we measure it. It surfaces in late spring and El Niño grows in Summer to fall. You can tell by the magnitude of warm subsurface water that this looks like a biggie! So how will it impact us? For one, it typically subdues Atlantic hurricane season. That doesn’t mean no storms - just less active than it would have otherwise been. Also it releases lots of Heat… so it super charges heat waves around the planet and floods too - it all tends to be more immense and intense. And you can bet Earth will experience its hottest days on record coming later 2026 into 2027. El Niño is one of the biggest climate forces on Earth and it has a profound impact on world-wide weather because of all the heat released into the atmosphere from the ocean.show more

This is Croatia right now… Everyone needs to know... what is happening in our world right now: Our planet has been experiencing the most extreme heat event in world history. This is the coldest summer of the rest of your life. July was the hottest month in the United States since we records began in 1895—Washington, USA burned to the ground. June was the hottest month in Europe, exceeded 40 degrees Celsius, shattering all heat records—caused over 25,000 deaths across the continent. Venezuela, Columbia, Indonesia, and Malaysia earthquakes crashing. The planet has recorded exactly 10 major earthquakes of magnitude 7.0 or higher—Earthquakes are not caused by CO2, but climate change can modulate them by secondary effects. Rivers in China and Europe are drying up, reaching historically low levels—Just for perspective, the drying of these rivers will impact shipping routes, leading to a skyrocketing in the prices of food, fuel, and energy. El Niño has begun, driving ocean temperatures to record-breaking highs—Nearly three decades ago, a catastrophic El Niño claimed 23,000 lives and inflicted billions of dollars in global economic damage. Canada burned to the ground, and Greenland's ice sheet is collapsing—slowing down the overturning of heat in the North Atlantic, pushing the whole monsoon system down further south, causing droughts and forest fires over the Amazon rainforest. The severity of this heatwave is truly hard to comprehend. What's going on there is a foreshadowing of our future. Scientists confirmed that heatwaves driven by climate change. Climate change is not a "hoax." It’s real and it’s happening. If you are not a scientist, and you disagree with scientists about science, it’s actually not a disagreement. You're just wrong. Science is not truth. Science is finding the truth. When science changes its opinion, it didn't lie to you. It learned more. This is no longer just a climate crisis. Climate chaos is inevitable. This is a humanitarian crisis. Just because you do not take an interest in climate change, doesn't mean climate change won't take an interest in you. We should start naming heatwaves after fossil fuel and oil companies, and wildfires after arms and defense industries. And Could reporters stop asking if leaders believe in climate change and start asking if they understand it instead. The world must remember that we live in a society, not an economy.show more
