I'll host a short-notice, "pop-up" livestream TODAY, Aug 27 at 4pm PT to discuss:
1) What is known about the human impacts and geophysical causes of the Himalayan glacier collapse disaster, and
2) Severe humid heatwave/dry t-storms/fire risk in California https://t.co/zAPGk6Q8RZ

Dolly Parton and Cher conversing entirely through song lyrics during a classic television special.

[Dolly Parton @DollyParton]

Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old.

Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000).

A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact.

At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at https://t.co/cLu9I7M2wC

In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at https://t.co/arzrqInqJA

New Weather West Post: Major SoCal late August heatwave this week, with modest, but growing, possibility of tropical storm remnants affecting CA in September. Plus: Why parts of SoCal could *potentially* see more extreme heat than is currently in forecast.

Given rising interest in the rapidly strengthening El Niño event in the tropical Pacific Ocean, I've created a one-page fact sheet succinctly describing what El Niño is, this year's (remarkable) forecast, and potential impacts from California to global scales. [Thread]

At 1pm PT on Mon, Aug 3, I'll have a live update on the historic wildfire disaster that unfolded over the weekend in Spokane, Washington, including causes and context, then discuss the very active wildfire conditions currently present elsewhere in West.

If the latest FIRIS perimeter for #WoodsideFire is accurate, this would be one of the stranger fire footprints & trajectories I've seen. Under strong NWly winds parallel to coastline, it appears fire has spotted *over oceanic coves* & into downwind forest...twice!! Whoa.

[Colin McCarthy @US_Stormwatch]

Confidence is increasing in a severe, long-duration heatwave across the Southwest, expanding into California next week and lasting into early August.

This could bring prolonged, widespread, severe heat across much of the state, potentially breaking heat records and greatly increasing fire danger. Stay tuned.
