exas faces a weekend of flooding, including areas that were devastated in July. This time, some of the heavy rain will be beneficial because of drought, but flooding is always a deadly risk. My @business colleague @laurenthal
has our story here:

Hawaii is in line for another Kona low through the middle of next week. Flood watches and other hazard markers are up all over the islands. Hawaii got battered last month with two big storms. https://t.co/I0pnkQ9trE
Providence just destroyed the record books.
37.9 inches of snow, crushing the Blizzard of 78 by more than 9 inches.
The largest storm in Rhode Island history and the highest snowfall ever recorded at an I-95 Northeast climate site.
And it is still lightly snowing.
A snow-covered I-80 in California turned into a parking lot near Emigrant Gap, where dozens of trucks were stuck and traffic was backed up for more than six miles after heavy snow forced a shutdown of the eastbound lanes.
New: Trump admin moves to pull supercomputing center out of top weather and climate research center (NCAR) in Boulder, Colo. Part of its effort to "break up" the lab. https://t.co/vo0qFpYG01
@business Colleague @willwwade has the news the Trump Administration is going after the National Center for Atmospheric Research https://t.co/AbUB1QYEVr
A deep freeze in the Northern Hemisphere would likely mean higher power and natural gas prices, adding to the cost burden for ratepayers as inflation remains stubbornly high, writes @WeatherSullivan@joewertz and @maryhui https://t.co/eeVKfoyyvd
Unfortunately some of the barrier islands near the Black River have been cut off, with their only road being washed away. Hoping aid is coming their way!

#Melissa getting organized, latest NHC forecast is catastrophic for #Jamaica, #Haiti, eastern #Cuba ... impacts over 30% of GDP (>$6 Billion) in Jamaica possible.
Lots of words, but not a lot of serious risks although AL95 might brush the #LeewardIslands, fringes of Priscilla impacting #Mexico, fringes of Halong might brush #Japan ... https://t.co/fD0GgCraRQ
There's a "tug of war" emerging between Arctic atmosphere (where air near surface is warming faster than high altitudes) and tropics (where high-altitude air is warming faster), and the as-yet TBD outcome will have major implications for global weather patterns. https://t.co/ch91V96VNA
Typhoon #Kaijiki is making landfall in #Vietnam, more powerful than forecast. Impacts likely to be over $1 Billion; that would be like a $60-70 Billion storm for the US (like a Helene or Sandy). Elsewhere no threats. https://t.co/RIh76Bo51p
@business colleague @oanhha has the story on how climate change and heating world is changing the way people take "coolcations." https://t.co/gii78MWmND
A large portion of the Atlantic coastline will see the risk for high surf and rip currents increase this week due to #Erin.
🟥Risk of Rip Currents is High🟥
Life-threatening rip currents are likely. Swimming conditions are unsafe for all levels of swimmers. Stay out of the water. Always follow advice from the local beach patrol and flag warning systems.
