  1. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🌧️🏜️ Heavy #monsoon rainfall caused deadly flash flooding in the #GrandCanyon on August 29, 2026.

    #Drought and the 2025 Dragon Bravo #Fire had left parts of the #landscape more vulnerable to debris flows. #TropicalStorm #Karina supplied additional moisture, producing rapid water-level rises, damage to gauges, evacuations, fatalities, and extensive damage to the park’s #water pipeline.

  2. #TropicalStorm #Nari (나리; Korean for lily) moved past Hokkaido last week. A new #TropicalDepression will soon become #TropicalStorm #Wipha (วิภา; Thai woman's name):

    • It will skirt northern Luzon, Philippines by Fri evening, before entering South China Sea on Sat.
    • It will brush past Hong Kong and Macau by Sunday pm.
    • It may make landfall as a #SevereTropicalStorm on Leizhou Pen., in Hainan, China, or in Vietnam on Tue.
    • It might not reach #Typhoon strength though. We'll wait and see.

  3. Hey look! It's #TropicalStorm #Sepat, tropical cyclone №.2 in the Western North Pacific this year.

    • It is expected to skirt the east coast of #Honshu, #Japan, by late Wednesday night and Thursday morning, before steering back out to sea.
    • It is not expected to strengthen beyond #TropicalStorm intensity.
    • The name Sepat is the Malay word for a genus of fish in the gurami family.
