    From Ryan Hall Y’all on FB: It's official.

    June, July and August of 2026 were the hottest summer in American history.

    Hotter than the Dust Bowl summer of 1936. Hotter than anything in 132 years of records.

    Utah, Colorado, Arizona and New Mexico just had the hottest summer their states have ever measured. Texas, Florida and California, top 4.

    1936 had eight states at #1. It also had six states cooler than normal. This summer had four at #1 and not one cool state.

    That is how you beat the Dust Bowl. Find your state on the map.

    From County of Hawaii on FB: This is a Civil Defense Message
    This is a Hurricane Lowell Information Update for Monday September 7th at 5:30pm.

    As of 5:00 this afternoon, Hurricane Lowell is a category 2 hurricane with sustained winds of up to 110 mph. Lowell is expected to remain a hurricane as it continues to pass near the Hawaiian Islands.
    Lowell is currently located approximately 170 miles southwest of Lihue and 230 miles southwest of Honolulu and moving north northeast at 18 mph.
    Although Lowell remains far to the west of Hawaii Island, the forecast continues to call for high surf and possibly heavy rains and flooding conditions.
    A Flood Watch remains in effect for Hawaii Island through tomorrow afternoon. Parts of Hawaii Island may see rainfall amounts from 4 to 8 inches with locally higher amounts up to 12 inches. Residents in flood prone areas are advised to take precautions and in particular those areas of the Kau district that were severely impacted by Hurricane Lala.
    A high surf warning remains in effect for the south and west facing shores of Hawaii Island and a high surf advisory remains in effect for the east facing shores of Hawaii Island.

    At this time all state and county government operations on Hawaii Island and all schools on Hawaii Island will be open tomorrow.

    Conditions will be monitored closely and you will be kept informed of any developments.

    Please continue to monitor local radio broadcasts for official updates and advisories in your area.

  9. shout out to @emilylowan.bsky.social!

    Please consider signing and sharing this important federal petition e-7465 at “ourcommons.ca” to restore Environment and Climate Change Canada!

    Thank you!

  10. Already 78 signers of the #e7465 petition to get #CarneyRestoreECCC ! Only need 500 to get it presented in Parliament with a response from Government but let's go for 1000!

    I won't link it directly as it tends to crash the Parliament "www.ourcommons.ca” website which is counter productive :+)

    So instead I'll encourage you to type that address in yourself and follow the directions in the pictures attached to sign the petition and restore Environment and Climate Change Canada!

    #CanPoli #CdnPoli #Petitions #ECCC #Weather #WeatherRadio #SevereWeather #BCStorm #Climate #ClimateChange

  11. Stay safe, y'all. We have very high threats, especially for tornadoes, today and tomorrow. Please make sure that you are weather aware and that you have a severe weather plan

  13. #SevereStorms with nocturnal #tornado risk to blitz over a dozen states

    Millions of people in the central and eastern #UnitedStates are bracing not only for severe storms and tornadoes but also weather whiplash with #temperatures plummeting as much as 60 degrees in less than 24 hours.

    By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist

    Published Feb 26, 2024 12:07 PM EST | Updated Feb 26, 2024 3:32 PM EST

    "A powerful cold front will mark an end to surging June-like warmth from the Mississippi Valley to the Appalachians at the cost of potentially violent storms that will roar through more than a dozen states from Tuesday afternoon to Wednesday, AccuWeather meteorologists warn.

    "The upcoming severe weather eruption, which may affect as many as 50 million people, has been on AccuWeather's radar for at least a week due to a potent storm the team has been tracking since it began its journey well out over the Pacific Ocean. As that storm interacts with a strong jet stream, surging Gulf of Mexico moisture and an increasing temperature difference between unusual warmth and February cold, natural fireworks in the form of powerful thunderstorms will unfold.

    "'The first thunderstorms will erupt along the edge of advancing warm air from mid- to late afternoon on Tuesday from northern Illinois and Indiana to southern Wisconsin and Michigan, as well as northwestern Ohio,' AccuWeather Meteorologist Alyssa Glenny said. These storms will become severe toward the end of the day.

    "Next, thunderstorms will explode southwestward along the advancing cold front, extending from northern Illinois to Arkansas Tuesday evening. The front and the severe weather it packs will move across the Ohio and middle Mississippi valleys during the overnight hours on Tuesday.

    "All modes of #SevereWeather are anticipated with the severe weather. Some of the storms will pack damaging #wind gusts, large #hail and torrential #downpours capable of leading to flash flooding. However, the potential for multiple #tornadoes is also a serious concern with the upcoming severe weather threat.

    "'The greatest threat of tornadoes may occur along and in between interstates 70 and 80 in the Midwest, beginning in Illinois and western Indiana late in the day Tuesday and expanding eastward from there Tuesday night,' AccuWeather StormWarning Meteorologist Joseph Bauer said.

    "The Tuesday evening and night tornado threat includes the massive #Chicago and SaintLouis metro areas and the cities of #Indianapolis, #SouthBend and #FortWayne, Indiana; #ToledoOhio and #LimaOhio; and #SpringfieldIllinois and #PeoriaIllinois.

    "Should the severe thunderstorms organize into a single solid line on Tuesday night, the risk of damaging wind gusts may broaden, but the risk of highly dangerous tornadoes may lower. While a line of storms may form, it may be fragmented and individual discreet thunderstorms, which are most capable of producing tornadoes, may proceed the line.

    "AccuWeather meteorologists urge people in the path of the storms to pay attention to severe weather bulletins, including signing up for alerts that may precede the messages when sleeping at night, such as the AccuWeather App.

    "The risk of severe thunderstorms, including a few tornadoes, will carry over into Wednesday as the cold front advances to the east and south toward the central and southern #Appalachians. On Wednesday, the severe weather threat will extend from southern #NewYork state to the northern parts of #Mississippi, #Alabama and #Georgia.

    "The potential for storms capable of causing property damage and localized power outages on Wednesday will include #NewYorkCity, #Philadephia, #WashingtonDC., #Charlotte and part of the #Atlanta metro area.

    "As the powerful cold front presses on toward the mid-Atlantic coast, storms will bring brief downpours and strong wind gusts, as opposed to a tornado threat. In some cases, the squally storms may occur without thunder and lightning by the time the storms reach the coast, Bauer said.
    Powerful cold front to mark as much as 60-degree temperature crash

    "One of the reasons for the severe weather will be the rapid exchange of warm and cold air. Temperatures more typical of May and early June will precede the cold front, including unusual warmth at night into Tuesday in the Central states and into Wednesday along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.

    "Widespread highs in the 60s and 70s across the north and the 70s and 80s across the south are in store ahead of the front. Nighttime lows will be in the 40s and 50s across the north and the 50s and 60s across the south for the first part of this week.

    "Temperatures will range from 15-30 degrees Fahrenheit above the historical average in many areas but may reach 40 degrees in some places through Tuesday in the central states and from Tuesday to Wednesday along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.

    "In the wake of the front, from Tuesday to Wednesday night, temperatures will crash 40 degrees over a broad area in a matter of hours.

    "'For example, at Kansas City, Missouri, temperatures may drop about 60 degrees in 18 hours, which could set a record,' AccuWeather Meteorologist and Social Media Producer Jesse Ferrell stated. The existing record is 56 degrees, set on Jan. 15, 1953.

    "In some cases, such as parts of the central Plains, the Upper Midwest, the Appalachians and New England, the blast of cold air will be so rapid as to catch up with the lingering moisture in the wake of the front. This temperature plunge will lead to pockets of accumulating# snow and/or a rapid #freezeup where moisture and slush can freeze into sheets of ice within an hour.

    "The #FlashFreeze will spread eastward across the Upper #Midwest Tuesday night and from the central #Appalachians to #NewEngland Wednesday evening and night.

    "In most cases along the mid-Atlantic and southern New England coasts, gusty winds will dry off roads and sidewalks Wednesday night, but there may be a few exceptions, and caution is advised."

    "As the powerful cold front presses on toward the mid-Atlantic coast, storms will bring brief downpours and strong wind gusts, as opposed to a tornado threat. In some cases, the squally storms may occur without thunder and lightning by the time the storms reach the coast, Bauer said.
    Powerful cold front to mark as much as 60-degree temperature crash

    "One of the reasons for the severe weather will be the rapid exchange of warm and cold air. Temperatures more typical of May and early June will precede the cold front, including unusual warmth at night into Tuesday in the Central states and into Wednesday along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.

    "Widespread highs in the 60s and 70s across the north and the 70s and 80s across the south are in store ahead of the front. Nighttime lows will be in the 40s and 50s across the north and the 50s and 60s across the south for the first part of this week.

    "Temperatures will range from 15-30 degrees Fahrenheit above the historical average in many areas but may reach 40 degrees in some places through Tuesday in the central states and from Tuesday to Wednesday along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.

    "In the wake of the front, from Tuesday to Wednesday night, temperatures will crash 40 degrees over a broad area in a matter of hours.

    "'For example, at Kansas City, Missouri, temperatures may drop about 60 degrees in 18 hours, which could set a record,' AccuWeather Meteorologist and Social Media Producer Jesse Ferrell stated. The existing record is 56 degrees, set on Jan. 15, 1953.

    "In some cases, such as parts of the central Plains, the Upper Midwest, the Appalachians and New England, the blast of cold air will be so rapid as to catch up with the lingering moisture in the wake of the front. This temperature plunge will lead to pockets of accumulating# snow and/or a rapid #freezeup where moisture and slush can freeze into sheets of ice within an hour.

    "The #FlashFreeze will spread eastward across the Upper #Midwest Tuesday night and from the central #Appalachians to #NewEngland Wednesday evening and night.

    "In most cases along the mid-Atlantic and southern New England coasts, gusty winds will dry off roads and sidewalks Wednesday night, but there may be a few exceptions, and caution is advised."

  16. #SevereStorms with nocturnal #tornado risk to blitz over a dozen states

    Millions of people in the central and eastern #UnitedStates are bracing not only for severe storms and tornadoes but also weather whiplash with #temperatures plummeting as much as 60 degrees in less than 24 hours.

    "A powerful cold front will mark an end to surging June-like warmth from the Mississippi Valley to the Appalachians at the cost of potentially violent storms that will roar through more than a dozen states from Tuesday afternoon to Wednesday, AccuWeather meteorologists warn.

    "The upcoming severe weather eruption, which may affect as many as 50 million people, has been on AccuWeather's radar for at least a week due to a potent storm the team has been tracking since it began its journey well out over the Pacific Ocean. As that storm interacts with a strong jet stream, surging Gulf of Mexico moisture and an increasing temperature difference between unusual warmth and February cold, natural fireworks in the form of powerful thunderstorms will unfold.

    "'The first thunderstorms will erupt along the edge of advancing warm air from mid- to late afternoon on Tuesday from northern Illinois and Indiana to southern Wisconsin and Michigan, as well as northwestern Ohio,' AccuWeather Meteorologist Alyssa Glenny said. These storms will become severe toward the end of the day.

    "Next, thunderstorms will explode southwestward along the advancing cold front, extending from northern Illinois to Arkansas Tuesday evening. The front and the severe weather it packs will move across the Ohio and middle Mississippi valleys during the overnight hours on Tuesday.

    "All modes of #SevereWeather are anticipated with the severe weather. Some of the storms will pack damaging #wind gusts, large #hail and torrential #downpours capable of leading to flash flooding. However, the potential for multiple #tornadoes is also a serious concern with the upcoming severe weather threat.

    "'The greatest threat of tornadoes may occur along and in between interstates 70 and 80 in the Midwest, beginning in Illinois and western Indiana late in the day Tuesday and expanding eastward from there Tuesday night,' AccuWeather StormWarning Meteorologist Joseph Bauer said.

    "The Tuesday evening and night tornado threat includes the massive #Chicago and SaintLouis metro areas and the cities of #Indianapolis, #SouthBend and #FortWayne, Indiana; #ToledoOhio and #LimaOhio; and #SpringfieldIllinois and #PeoriaIllinois.

    "Should the severe thunderstorms organize into a single solid line on Tuesday night, the risk of damaging wind gusts may broaden, but the risk of highly dangerous tornadoes may lower. While a line of storms may form, it may be fragmented and individual discreet thunderstorms, which are most capable of producing tornadoes, may proceed the line.

    "AccuWeather meteorologists urge people in the path of the storms to pay attention to severe weather bulletins, including signing up for alerts that may precede the messages when sleeping at night, such as the AccuWeather App.

    "The risk of severe thunderstorms, including a few tornadoes, will carry over into Wednesday as the cold front advances to the east and south toward the central and southern #Appalachians. On Wednesday, the severe weather threat will extend from southern #NewYork state to the northern parts of #Mississippi, #Alabama and #Georgia.
