Those people are correct. The earth goes in cycles and we are naturally warming at this time... but science shows us that our emissions have amplified the warming making it faster than nature would have. Adaptation is tougher for coral for example that can't move to cooler water and isn't getting recovery seasons.

@Ginger_Zee Some people would tell you that the earth goes through Cycles and that this is normal.

We have confirmed the path of the tornado in Cape May Point. This tornado started as a waterspout before coming onshore. Here is the link to the storm summary: https://t.co/20miA0SeBs

Merylin gave me the “I dream of Jeannie” pony today and I was insufferable with my arms cross and nodding at everyone. She has learned her lesson 😂

People love a named storm (Bertha) but I think flash flood threat in Virginia and North Carolina is a bigger impact story — this is the same front that brought tornadoes from KY to NJ, now becomes stationary & drench eastern NC/southeastern Virginia through the end of this week!

[Ginger Zee @Ginger_Zee]

WHAT?! Love that. @RenttheRunway is a hit

@63modman It’s rare but we have done beach forecasts etc — our job is to warn and these days, lots of warnings

[Ginger Zee @Ginger_Zee]

Have seen embedded tornado warnings in the storms in northern New Jersey and this watch goes until 9 pm. Atmosphere is rolling! Have two ways of getting warning as another line is moving through northeastern Pennsylvania into the tristate this evening:

Tennessee flash flooding from last night. There was also a flash flood emergency in parts of West Virginia!

FLOODING IN HERMITAGE! This is why we tell you, “turn around, don’t down”. The flooding was so bad there that a car got stuck. Did you see it? 📸 Megan @Ginger_Zee

@PrashanthM32946 There are so many factors. Packed summer schedule, ATC staffing and anticipation of storms = mess. They try to be preventative by cancelling.

7/21/26

Level 3/5 for severe storms (winds over 70 mph in some of these storms) for big cities like Philadelphia and Baltimore (hundreds of flights already cancelled in anticipation).

NORTH CAROLINA: ICYMI this morning— the same front making storms in the northeast today will bring heavy rains as it stalls out over NC through the end of the week. 8” plus on some of the modeling. Beware!

For a gal who lives for storms I have one of the sweetest little pups that can’t do the thunder.

Air quality alerts plus a serious severe weather threat for parts of Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, Iowa.

And the video from Utah yesterday from the burn scar of the Cottonwood fire getting hit with a half to one and a half inches of rain, causing debris flows and mudslides.

And a wrap up from some of the severe storms that caused nearly 19,000 flight delays over the weekend thanks to storms in the Northeast

Important to remember what a 1 in 100 year flood means — doesn’t mean just once in a century:

[Good Morning America @GMA]

Dangerous flooding is impacting central Texas after more than 20 inches of rain fell in some areas, causing rivers and creeks to overflow. Rescues and evacuations are underway. @ReporterFaith has more.

@cybercabgab @ReporterFaith so bots don't have humanity. thanks for the confirmation. a deadly wall of water is frightening. that is not an opinion.

[Ginger Zee @Ginger_Zee]

7-16-26 Frightening situation this morning in Kerr and Kendall County Texas. Latest update has one of the river gauges on the Guadalupe River rising 16 feet in 30 minutes. This is a potentially deadly situation. @reporterfaith is in Texas for us and you can watch this live on @ksatnews

[Ginger Zee @Ginger_Zee]

At one point this morning Detroit’s AQI was 600. That is wild. Please be safe and check https://t.co/kvn2DHRjSl before you head out from Minneapolis to Manchester, NH to Virginia Beach today and tomorrow!
