🌡️ Unusually intense May heatwave in Europe This weekend will bring very high temperatures to southwestern, western, and partly central Europe, locally up to 15 °C above the long-term average. The reason is a persistent high-pressure system over Europe, drawing in hot air from North Africa along its western flank and acting as a so-called heat dome. Air in the center of the high sinks and warms, suppressing cloud formation and allowing more solar radiation to reach the surface. As a result, hot air accumulates near the ground and continues to intensify. Temperatures may exceed 30 °C in western and central Europe, and reach up to 38 °C in southwestern Spain. Numerous daily temperature records are expected to be broken.

Winter comeback in Europe? 🧐Across much of Europe, a prolonged period of below-average temperatures will begin on Wednesday. 🥶 This is likely to last until Easter. The video shows the development of temperature anomalies from Wednesday one week ahead. At the same time, there will be plenty of precipitation, so higher elevations will see significant snowfall. ❄️ Much of Europe is heading for a cold transition from March to April and likely also a chilly Easter.

☀️🌡️ Another heatwave is expected in Europe. Temperatures may exceed 40 °C as the summer solstice approaches Across many parts of western, southwestern, central, and northern Europe, temperatures are expected to rise well above the long-term average in the coming days. Unusually warm weather is already affecting the southwest of the continent. In Galicia, Spain, the Coruña Airport weather station recorded a high of 37.7 °C over the weekend, marking the station's highest temperature ever. In the second half of the week, exceptional heat will spread across much of Europe, as very warm air from the south gradually moves farther north along the western side of a high-pressure system. The heatwave is likely to be most pronounced in Spain and France, where temperatures could climb above 40 °C over the weekend, with local anomalies exceeding the long-term average by up to 15 °C. It is still unclear how long the hot weather will last, but some models suggest it could continue into next week. The upcoming heatwave could bring higher peak temperatures than the late-May event, partly because it comes around the summer solstice, when days are longest. ⚠️ Keep an eye on the latest forecasts and official warnings.

🌎 NOAA has officially declared the onset of El Niño El Niño is the warm phase of ENSO, during which surface waters in the central and eastern tropical Pacific become warmer than usual. As the distribution of warm water in the Pacific shifts, atmospheric circulation also changes, including the position of the jet stream and storm tracks. This can influence temperatures and rainfall thousands of kilometres away. Current seasonal forecasts suggest that El Niño will continue to strengthen through the rest of the year. According to NOAA, there is a 60% chance that sea surface temperature anomalies in the central and eastern tropical Pacific will exceed 2 °C by the end of the year. This episode could therefore become very strong and rank among the strongest events on record. Typical impacts of El Niño: • globally: an increase in the planet’s average temperature • more rainfall: western and southern South America, parts of East Africa, and the southern United States • drier conditions: northern and eastern Australia, Indonesia, parts of Southeast Asia, southern Africa, and parts of Central America • South Asia: the southwest monsoon is often weaker • tropical cyclones: less favourable conditions in the Atlantic, a more active eastern and central Pacific, and typhoon formation in the western North Pacific often shifting farther east

The battle of the seasons continues! The heat dome vs the polar vortex duking it out for dominance. We all know how this ends, but the Polar Vortex still has some gas in the tank! First the #heatdome brings record heat to #Florida this week - feels like 100° - then the Polar Vortex slings another chilly shot south next week with most of the East dipping 10-15° degrees below normal. For Florida, drier, milder air will help lower the temperature a bit, but not for long and not by much. North of I-4 pleasant (but not cool) air will return by Tuesday/ Wednesday.

Satya Nadella: Microsoft’s latest Wisconsin AI data center keeps yearly water consumption no higher than that of 1 local restaurant. "The cooling loop is filled once and the data centre can operate effectively with zero water consumption. Daily water usage across a year is roughly equivalent to what a single restaurant would use" The mechanism is mainly about replacing evaporative cooling with closed-loop direct-to-chip liquid cooling, so water moves like coolant inside a sealed machine rather than being boiled off into the air. Hot GB200-class AI racks produce too much heat for normal air cooling, so cold liquid is pushed through pipes into the servers and across metal cold plates touching the hottest chips. The liquid enters the rack cool, absorbs heat from the chips through cold plates, then exits the rack at a higher temperature and carries that heat through pipes to a huge cooling system outside the compute floor. Microsoft says Fairwater sends that hot water to cooling “fins” beside the datacenter, where 172 20-foot fans blow air across the fins and dump the heat into the outside air. The important detail is that the air cools the water through metal surfaces, so the water does not need to evaporate the way many older datacenters use cooling towers. The cooled liquid then returns to the servers, repeats the loop, and keeps absorbing heat from the chips. In older data centers, heat is often removed partly through cooling towers. Hot water meets moving air, some water evaporates, and that phase change carries heat away. Effective, but it consumes fresh water continuously. But Firwater is a closed loop because the same coolant keeps circulating through sealed pipes: it absorbs heat from the chips, releases that heat through radiator-like fins, then flows back to the chips again. For Wisconsin Fairwater, Microsoft says more than 90% of the facility uses closed-loop liquid cooling, while the remaining portion uses outside air and switches to water only on the hottest days. ---- From "Microsoft" YouTube channel, (link in comment)

⚠️ A string of wildfires began earlier this afternoon, stretching from the Minnesota border up to the north of Lake Nipigon in Ontario, Canada. This sudden area of wildfires may result in hazier and smokier skies over the next 3-5 days as the high pressure system spins clockwise off to our southwest, allowing for continuous flow to bring smoke southward into Michigan. This is brand new development, and we continue to monitor potential impacts around the region. This could make going outside over the next several days extremely hazardous due to the combination of poor air quality, and excessive heat with temperatures around 100°F. Upper Peninsula and Isle Royale residents will be the most at-risk. Post as of 8:20 pm EDT 7/13/26.

2027 will almost certainly be the warmest year on record for Earth - by a long shot - and perhaps even 2026 may reach a record too. That’s due to the big boost of heat released from El Niño, on top of the long term warming. This happens as excess heat stored deep in the west tropical Pacific moves east and towards the ocean surface. When it reaches the surface the extra energy sparks thunderstorms and powers a strong subtropical jetstream. That combination releases tons of heat into the air and powers extreme weather all around the planet. As a result, the planet’s surface temperature will warm up significantly, pushing us past (probably far past) the record set in 2024. Worth noting that the planet’s warmest 10 years on record are indeed the last 10 years. And that the Earth is likely warmer now than it’s been in at least 120,000 years. #elnino #heatwave #extremeweather #science #stem

The heat dome ridge peaks overhead early tomorrow, then slowly begins to collapse. As it does so, this opens the door for thunderstorms fire up, as the suppressing subsidence forcing associated with the high pressure dome goes with it. This does not mean we cool off fast though, dangerous heat and humidity will continue through the weekend. Because of this, any storms that do fire, could easily become strong to severe. We are outlooked for severe weather on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday in the DC region. Friday: Marginal risk. We're still under the capping influence of the ridge most of the day, so any storms that do fire should be isolated in nature. Most models keep the majority of the region sunny & dry again. Just can't rule out a few pop-up, especially later in the day if there is a complex in PA during the late afternoon, at it's outflow could come south and trigger storms. Saturday: Slight risk. We'll be in the sweet spot for ridge riders...strong thunderstorms riding the outskirts of the weakening heat some. Storms will likely fire over the mountains during the peak heat of the day (1-4pm) and then shift eastward as their outflow boundaries trigger additional storms. Won't wash out the 4th, but there is serious concern that storms will impact events downtown for at least a period of time Saturday evening. We will be here monitoring. Sunday: Ample energy ahead of a cold front which should put an end to this intense heatwave...but may do so with some intense storms. Will have to monitor for scattered severe storms, or possible squall line type system to come through. We're in an extended day 4 slight risk from SPC as things stand right now. GRAF only goes out through early Sunday morning at the moment, but I've got the latest run for you below. We'll keep you updated on timing and will be here all weekend watching radar for you as events go on downtown.

🌊 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.

Wednesday, May 6, 2026, 12:17 PM: The start of the 592 DM heat dome is continuing to move across the Central Pacific and is expected to park on top of Central and Southern California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico by Saturday 5 PM. This particular heatwave is quite interesting because it’s going to intensify significantly on Mother’s Day, May 10, 2026, and peak sharply, with temperatures of 96 to 109° by the time we get to next Wednesday. In addition, some eastern portions of the Coachella Valley could reach 110 to 115° is being watched extremely closely especially on Sunday through Tuesday. Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside, basin and all valleys, and let's not forget Antelope, Apple Lucerne Valley, including Santa Clarita San Fernando, Moreno, Sacramento, San Joaquin, valley. Solid confidence temperature threshold is likely with this type of large high-pressure axis dome. Important to also make sure everyone’s prepared for the sudden change in temperature as a human body cannot cope with a sudden shift from the 60s and 70s to now triple digits in such a short amount of timeframe. It’s important to remember to drink lots of water keep hydrated wear light color clothing as this heat wave is looking to be pretty strong next week. #CAwx

El Niño is born! Destined to be the biggest in 150 years +?? NOAA declares: El Niño Advisory This morning conditions in the Eastern Pacific met the criteria for El Niño. This means Sea Surface Temps reached a certain level above normal, and the ocean and atmosphere “coupled” meaning they are now working in tandem to produce impacts. This event is widely advertised by models to be potentially the strongest on record. El Niño takes very hot water stored in the deep tropical west Pacific, pushing it east and up to the surface, lofting that heat into the atmosphere, which supercharges weather events and throws the climate off-kilter. This typical means more intense heatwaves & floods, but also it restrains the Atlantic hurricane season. So its impacts are both good and bad. One thing seems virtually certain: the heat released into the atmosphere will make for some unprecedented events through 2027, and on top of longterm warming, the hottest global temperatures in many tens of 1000s of years. #ElNino #florida #storm #heatwave #flood #drought

🚨 DIAMOND IS ABOUT TO REPLACE SILICON IN NEXT-GEN CHIPS. Scientists are now producing large single-crystal CVD diamond wafers that could revolutionize electronics. Diamond conducts heat 5× better than copper and over 10× better than silicon while also handling extreme voltages, high frequencies, and radiation. Why this matters: • Thermal Superpower: Diamond acts as its own heat sink, solving one of the biggest problems in high-power chips • Ultra Wide Bandgap: Handles massive voltage and extreme temperatures without breaking down • High Frequencies: Electrons move incredibly fast, perfect for 6G, radar, and advanced telecom • Radiation Hardness: Ideal for satellites, space tech, and nuclear applications The deeper implication is massive: We’re at the early stages of a materials revolution. As silicon hits its physical limits with heat and power, diamond one of the most extraordinary materials in nature could power the next era of AI chips, electric vehicles, and aerospace systems. What do you think will diamond semiconductors become mainstream in the 2030s? Follow for more frontier materials science and future technology.

A large tank at an aerospace factory in Garden Grove started leaking. The chemical inside - methyl methacrylate, or MMA - is a clear liquid used to make airplane canopies and strong glues for aircraft parts. When air got in through the leak, the chemical began to harden and turn solid…just like superglue or epoxy does when you leave the tube open. This hardening process creates a lot of heat. With thousands of gallons reacting at once, the heat keeps building and speeds up the reaction even more. This “runaway” effect has raised the tank’s temperature, damaged the tank walls, and is releasing toxic fumes. Timeline • May 21, 2026 (Thursday, ~3:40 p.m.): The 34,000-gallon tank at the GKN Aerospace facility in Garden Grove develops a leak. Air reaches the roughly 7,000 gallons of MMA inside, starting an exothermic curing reaction. Orange County Fire Authority responders arrive on scene on Western Avenue. • May 21–22, 2026: Heat from the reaction builds quickly. The temperature of the material rises from normal room temperature to about 90 °F. Toxic vapors begin venting from the tank and internal pressure starts to increase. • May 22–24, 2026: Evacuation orders are issued and expanded for safety. Approximately 40,000 residents in Garden Grove and nearby areas are told to leave. GKN Aerospace chemists and local hazmat teams monitor the tank around the clock and work on cooling and containment steps. • As of May 25, 2026: The tank is still unstable. The runaway chemical reaction continues, and emergency crews remain on site performing damage-control operations. The liquid MMA itself is highly toxic. If the tank fails completely, thousands of gallons could spill into storm drains and waterways, causing serious long-term environmental damage. At the same time, the ongoing heat and gas buildup raise the danger of a sudden pressure-related rupture or explosion that could send a large cloud of toxic vapors over this heavily populated part of Southern California. The situation has not been brought under control.

☀️12th April 2026: India Under the Dome: 6-Day Intense Dry Spell to Grip Subcontinent. The loan oasis, Northeast India Defies National Trend with Rain and Thunderstorms until 15th April. ​Mercury Surge: Central and South India Brace for 40°C+ as High Pressure Caps the Skies ​ Detailed Forecast & Analysis ​1. The Dominant "Heat Dome" Effect ​The orange and red anomalies in the loop represent positive geopotential height anomalies. This indicates a high-pressure system (anticyclone) at the 500mb level (approx. 5.5 km altitude). ​The Cause: This system acts like a "lid" or dome, trapping sinking air which warms up as it is compressed. This suppresses cloud formation and prevents moisture from the oceans from penetrating inland. ​Impact: Expect a rapid rise in maximum temperatures by 3–6°C across Northwest, Central, and East India. Example, cities like Delhi, Nagpur, and Ahmedabad are likely to approach or exceed the 40°C mark by April 15. ​2. Regional Breakdown Region Weather Outlook (Next 6 Days): Primary Driver Northwest & Central Severe dry heat; clear skies; rising heatwave risks. Strong anticyclonic subsidence. South Peninsular Hot and humid; minimal rainfall. High-pressure stability. East India Significant temperature spike (3–5°C rise). Expansion of the heat ridge eastward. Northeast India Scattered thunderstorms & light-to-moderate rain. Persistent 3. The Northeast Exception until 15th April. ​The red arrow in the loop image points to a specific area (Northeast India/Bangladesh border) where the high-pressure dome is weaker or interrupted. ​The Cause: A "trough" (an elongated area of low pressure) is expected to persist over this region. This allows moisture from the Bay of Bengal to interact with the hilly terrain, triggering Orographically induced thunderstorms. ​Expected Conditions: While the rest of India stays dry, states like Assam, Meghalaya, and Arunachal Pradesh will likely see fairly widespread rainfall and gusty winds 30–40 kmph through April 16. ​Preparation Advice ​Agriculture: Farmers in Central and West India should ensure adequate irrigation for summer crops as soil moisture will deplete rapidly. ​Health: High UV indices 9–10 are expected; avoid outdoor activity between 11 AM and 4 PM in heat-affected zones. ​Northeast Residents: Prepare for sudden squalls and lightning; ensure drainage systems are clear for localized heavy spells.

🚨 THE ENERGY TECHNOLOGY THAT COULD POWER CIVILIZATION FOR THE NEXT 100 YEARS ISN'T FUSION. Molten Salt Reactors use molten fluoride or chloride salts as coolant and in some designs, the nuclear fuel itself is dissolved directly into that salt. This is very different from traditional reactors. Instead of solid fuel rods sitting in water under high pressure, these systems run at much higher temperatures but at atmospheric pressure, which dramatically reduces the risk of explosions or meltdowns. The salt can flow over solid fuel, or the fuel can be mixed directly into the coolant. Both approaches are being actively developed. Why this matters: • MSRs operate at high temperatures, making them potentially much more efficient at generating electricity and process heat • Low-pressure operation makes them inherently safer than conventional water-cooled reactors • Some designs can burn existing nuclear waste or use thorium as fuel • The technology could support everything from advanced power generation to hydrogen production and industrial heat The deeper implication: For decades, nuclear power has been dominated by one basic design concept. Molten salt reactors represent a fundamental rethink using a liquid that can act as both coolant and fuel. This opens the door to reactors that are safer, more flexible, and potentially capable of solving some of nuclear energy’s biggest historical challenges (waste, fuel efficiency, and public perception of safety). While still in development, MSRs are one of the most promising pathways for next-generation nuclear power. We may be looking at the early stages of a genuinely new chapter in how humanity generates clean, reliable energy. Do you think molten salt reactors will become a major part of the future energy mix, or will traditional designs continue to dominate?

🚨 An absolutely LUDICROUS amount of Snow is about to fall out West as a TRAIN of Storms pushes onshore. ❌This comes as our West Coast brotheren have been dealing with RECORD low Snowpack, with many ski resorts forced to close parts of their mountains due to a lack of Snow. That is ALL about to change next week as an Atmospheric River delivers a near constant FEED of moisture into the West. ❄️ The heaviest Snow remains on track to fall in the Sierra Nevada, where 4 to 8 FEET or more could pile up early this week. 🏔️ Heavy Snow will also dump into the Rockies, including Colorado and Utah. Here, 1 Foot or more could fall over several days. 🌲 The Cascades will see PLENTY of Snow as well, with 1 to 2 FEET likely in the higher elevations. 🌧️ Lower elevations along the West Coast, including Seattle, could see a few Snow Flakes mix in, but little to no accumulation is expected. ✅This is FANTASTIC news for our mountain loving brotheren out West who have been DYING for Snow. It will also do wonders for the California and Rocky Mountain Snowpack, which desperately needs the boost. 👊 Enjoy the Snow, my mountain loving brotheren.

🚨 SOMETHING MASSIVE IS BREWING BENEATH THE PACIFIC AND IT COULD TRIGGER A MONSTER EL NIÑO. New 3D ARMOR data reveals a giant subsurface heat reservoir in the Pacific with temperature anomalies reaching +6°C below the surface far deeper and stronger than normal. This is not surface warming. This is the Pacific’s internal heat engine loading up with enormous energy. If powerful Westerly Wind Bursts push this heat upward, the surface response could explode into +3°C to +4°C territory creating a hybrid Super El Niño unlike anything we’ve seen in decades. Why this matters: • A monster El Niño would bring extreme heat, crop failures, chaotic rainfall, floods, droughts, and global weather disruption • The heat is already there — it just needs the right trigger to rise • This is atmosphere-ocean physics operating at full power, not “nature taking revenge” • Monitoring shows the system is primed and ready The deeper implication is alarming: We may be watching the early stages of one of the most powerful El Niño events in modern history forming right now beneath the waves. If this heat vents upward… the consequences could be felt worldwide for years. What do you think are we heading into dangerous new climate territory, or will the system stay contained?
