A new #ClimateCentral-led paper finds that climate change has nearly tripled the number of days with extreme water levels worldwide since the 1970s, increasing coastal flood risks for communities across the globe.

🌎Approximately 135 million people across the southern and eastern U.S. are expected to experience overnight temperatures that are at least 5x more likely due to human-caused climate change between June 8–12.

🚨Hot summer days are dangerous. But hot summer nights can be just as harmful.🚨

From June 8–12, millions across the U.S. are expected to experience unusually warm overnight temperatures, with lows running 5°F–15°F above average in many areas.

[Climate Central @ClimateCentral]

Many locations could tie or break records for their warmest overnight low temperature later this week!

📅For example, on June 10, parts of the Central Plains, Upper Midwest, Great Lakes, South, and Southeast could see overnight lows 15°F–20°F above average.

🚨ICYMI: Last month, on the coasts of Spain, 12 of 15 deep-water buoys & 6 of 14 coastal buoys recorded their highest-ever May temperatures.

According to #ClimateCentral's Climate Shift Index: Ocean, this record ocean heat was made at least 50x more likely due to climate change.

The Earth is speaking. Are you listening?

From record heat to stronger storms, signs of a warming planet are hard to ignore. At #ClimateCentral, we work to make climate science clear, local and actionable.

Because climate science matters. And so do you.

🚨Canada is seeing a major late-May heat event this week, with temperatures running 15°–25°C above average across parts of the Prairies.

[Climate Central @ClimateCentral]

A strong high-pressure system within an omega block is driving the heat, with climate change amplifying its intensity. Fire weather concerns are also elevated south of the highest CSI values.
