Dun dun… dun dun… wait a second, that’s no shark – it’s a mola mola!
Also known as ocean sunfish, mola mola are the heaviest bony fish in the ocean. This one was spotted impersonating a shark in Greater Farallones National Marine Sanctuary. #EarthIsBlue#WildSanctuaries
@Weather_West Unfortunately I can’t make it but could you cover El Niño influence on coastal summer stratus along the North Coast? Seems with La Niña’s cooler ocean temps we the last two summers were relatively cool and foggy. Keep up the strong work!
This is a cross section of the Equatorial Pacific Ocean. It is quite stunning how quickly the cooler water in the central-eastern Pacific has been displaced by warming. The sub surface warming here is impressive. Significant El Nino in the making!! @WFLA
@Andrew_OSU@appleinsider Fix When wearing glove and wrist bent backwards, emergency 🆘 screen comes up. Annoying to stop work to keep watch from calling the cavalry.
Calling volunteers, we’re expanding outside of California! We’ve already begun onboarding radio scanners and reporters from Oregon, Washington, and Nevada but we still need more to cover the entire American West. https://t.co/sT77TbvVPO

The Ironton sat unseen and untouched in the depths of Lake Huron for more than 120 years. Now, officials with the Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary say the 191-foot cargo vessel that sank in 1894 has been found. https://t.co/Lw02VSx6Hn

Great consensus is building among weather models for a potentially prolonged cold and wetter than normal weather pattern to begin next week in California.
Early indications are also showing the potential for exceptionally low snow levels. Stay tuned!

California will finally get a break from the storm parade that has slammed the state for 20+ days beginning this Friday and lasting for 7-10 days.
But, there is good consensus among models for a return to wetter/cooler than normal conditions during the last few days of January.
