  12. Summerlike heat dome to send #Southwest temperatures soaring past 100 F

    A strengthening #HeatDome will send temperatures soaring into the 90s and past 100 degrees across the Southwest, threatening records, accelerating snowmelt and raising #wildfire risk now, then #WaterSupply concerns later.

    By Alex Sosnowski, AccuWeather senior meteorologist
    Published Mar 13, 2026

    "Temperatures will climb well into the 90s, with some areas forecast to top 100 degrees Fahrenheit through next week. While those numbers may not seem extreme for the southwestern United States, they are running one to two months ahead of historical averages and could have implications for wildfire risk and water supplies across the interior Southwest later this year.

    "A persistent area of high pressure at multiple levels of the atmosphere, known as a heat dome, will intensify in the coming days and may be slow to break down."

  14. Who needs #BioLabs when there's all sorts of #bacteria about to be exposed after thousands of years!

    Researchers issue warning after making grim #Antarctic discovery: 'We are only beginning to understand'

    Story by Daysia Tolentino, January 29, 2026

    Excerpt: "A study published in the journal #Biocontaminant examined the effects of #GlacialMelting on our #WaterSupply.

    "#Glaciers serve as reservoirs for #AntibioticResistanceGenes, or #ARGs, and other #microbes. When they are released from the ice, they enter our water systems, posing a major health risk to people downstream.

    "Millions of people get their water from glacier-fed rivers and lakes. ARGs are strands of DNA that make bacteria more resistant to drugs. When ARGs in #meltwater make their way into our water supply, they become a global public health risk.

    "The study emphasizes the importance of viewing glaciers, rivers, and lakes as being part of a 'glacier continuum.' This means they are an interconnected system rather than separate environments.

    Why are melting glaciers concerning?

    "From our gas-powered cars to #overconsumption, human activity has contributed to the production of heat-trapping gases that warm the planet. Rising global temperatures have caused glaciers to rapidly melt, causing elevated sea levels and releasing ARGs.

    "ARGs from melting glaciers are worrisome because they help facilitate the spread of diseases. This threat is compounded by the fact that our growing #microplastic problem is also helping #AntibioticResistant #bacteria breed. As a result, #medicines are being rendered less effective."
