  1. #HeatDome to broil #WesternUS ahead of North American #monsoon

    A new heat dome is building in the United States this week. This time it will focus on the West first, then shift toward the Midwest. Storms associated with the #NorthAmericanMonsoon will follow the heat in the West.

    By Alex Sosnowski, Jul 7, 2026

    Excerpt: "As the heat wave crests over the interior West, an annual phenomenon will take place. Moisture will begin to trickle in from Mexico at first, then pick up more steam later this week to next week. A surge in humidity levels, along with a flip of the breeze from the west to the south, is known as the North American monsoon.

    " 'There should be a slow propagation of thunderstorm activity from south to north over the interior West that should start with spotty activity at first then become somewhat more widespread by next week,' Pastelok said.

    " 'Helping that activity will be an eastward shift of the high-pressure heat dome,' AccuWeather Meteorologist Brandon Buckingham said. 'The circulation around the high will help to pump moisture in more freely over much of the West beginning this weekend and more so next week.'

    "Many of the early storms over the Southwest may bring little or no rain but gusty #winds and #lightning strikes. The gusty winds can kick up considerable amounts of #dust, creating large #DustStorms or #haboobs. Lightning strikes with no rain can set off scores of new #wildfires, while gusty winds around the storms can fan the new fires and existing large blazes.

    "The nature of the heat dome will trap smoke in the region, which can reduce the visibility, create a hazy or milky-looking sky and create #AirQuality dangers for some individuals. "

  10. Raining, finally. 22 days late, but I hope it stays now.

  12. @futurebird hey do you mind if I ask you for #ant keeping advice? I found three camponotus queens tonight after the first #monsoon storm. I just have them in test tubes with a bit of water behind a cotton ball right now

  13. Monsoon Technically starts today but we were treated to some very refreshing storms last night. The raindrops were heavy and cold which were such a great contrast to the 100+ Degree weather. #azwx #monsoon #tucson

  14. 2/ This DW (Deutchewelle) News interview with a sr. NOAA scientist who has followed #ElNino for years breaks down the event and reveals the greatest threats - what countries will suffer the most. In my region of the #PNW we’re going to experience drought, heat and inordinately hot weather this summer, and next year’s snowpack may suffer. But in much of the tropics and parts of the Global South, including the US South, it’s going to be a lot wetter. Flooding is definitely on the agenda. And though US hurricane season may see less storms, those that do form may be very large and destructive ones. Are you ready? Is your community going to be impacted? youtu.be/0SaaKeQTb5M?is=Yg-ad2 #ClimateCrisis #ClimateChange #ClimateEmergency #GlobalWarming #oceans #monsoon
