Extremely powerful Category 5 #HurricanePolo is continuing to churn off the coast of Mexico as the sun rises this morning. Polo is expected to approach Baja California Sur early next week. Farther west, #HurricaneOdalys can also be seen in this imagery from @NOAA's #GOESWest (#GOES18) 🛰️.

2025 was the 4th consecutive year of widespread glacier loss across all regions.
Each bar shows the global glacier mass change in one hydrological year, from 1976 onwards. 🔵 = ice gain; 🔴 = ice loss.

El Niño is strengthening, with a greater than 90% chance of a very strong event during the Northern Hemisphere fall and winter 2026-27. An #ElNino Advisory remains in effect. #ENSO cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/a…
ALT A bar chart showing the chance of El Niño (red bars), ENSO-Neutral (grey bars), and La Niña (blue bars) provided for 9 upcoming, overlapping 3-month seasons (each letter represents a month, for example, F = February). The color shading within the bars indicates the chances of different categories of El Niño or La Niña strength (weak, moderate, strong, and very strong). Alternatively, the table at the internet address below presents the percent chances of each strength category in numerical form. https://cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/analysis_monitoring/enso/roni/strengths/

Will we ever see this again? Three named storms, seen simultaneously. Beautiful cropped shot from today's full disk "blue marble" image, as received and processed from the 1.7 GHz radio signal with my own ground station here in Vancouver at 2000 UTC / 1 PM PT.

The flash flood in Nepal was caused by global warming. The portion of a glacier detached, sending a massive ice and rock avalanche into the Lhende Khola river, causing a high-velocity surge of ice and mud downstream.
