Typhoons and mountains do not mix.
Watch as Champi is devoured by northern Taiwan
The eye is obliterated and the storm torn apart.
A tropical disturbance has formed in the Bay of Bengal (Invest 98B)
Weather models show an intense cyclone of Category 4 intensity (115 knots) making landfall somewhere along Indian coast.
This will be a dangerous storm ⚠️
Vance the hurricane is nearly at major intensity.
However, there's a cold pool of water along the path, so Vance has 48 hours to peak, and then it's downhill from there w/potential of significant weakening.
Eye still ragged. 90 knots winds
UPDATE: climate risk company First Street (recently acquired) is being sued by Nebraska for misleading "climate scores" put on real estate market pages.
A reckoning for the "climate intel" space🍿
Update: Friday October 23, 2026
First Street being sued by Florida A.G.
First Street’s climate risk scores on Zillow, Redfin & Realtor.com are presented as accurate and scientific. They’re not.
We are taking them to court because Florida homeowners deserve facts, not alarmist scores that hit their property values and their wallets.
Redfin deserves scrutiny for its business relationship, which apparently remains intact.
This video was not a compelling defense.
Zillow removed the faulty scores in December 2025 after taking incoming fire from all directions.
Storm Austen tracked through the English Channel and is now in the Netherlands causing havoc.
Wind gusts over open water still nearly hurricane force.
Do the "heat attribution" studies take into account the humidity in Europe?
Here in United States "Deep South" we use air conditioning to both cool and dehumidify our homes.
Electricity is cheap in Georgia, our homes are typically kept around 72°F in summer & winter.
Attribution science is so morbid.
The researchers could calculate the number of deaths likely caused by lack of air conditioning due to maladaptation caused by climate/energy policy.
Instead, they set up counterfactual experiments to compare the climate of 1850 with 2026, and conclude what?
The people in 1850 were better off? Gross.
nytimes.com/2026/10/22/clima…
No one died from "climate change" which is a 2°F rise in global temperature since 1850 during the Little Ice Age.
Everyone died because of lack of cooling and adaptation due to policy trade-offs made by European governments to prioritize long-term mitigation (Net Zero) rather than resilience today.
A "buddy system" to check on elderly melting in their homes is not a serious solution.

If you believe the models, we should finish off October without any additional tropical threats or development contenders. But what about November? In today's newsletter, I dive into just how common tropical threats are in the season's final month. ⬇️

Most Americans don't appreciate the power of the "bomb cyclones" that slam into the British Isles and France. Barometric pressure collapsed.
Storm Austen is the equivalent to a hurricane rolling through the English Channel -- damaging winds and power outages.
Does your barometer even go down to 946 mb?
Do you even have a barometer might be a better question?
Why don't you have one?

Not only does switching this map's layer from "Current" to "Historical" (weather.gov/wrh/hazards) include Canadian station data - up through this evening, even - but other NWS websites, like the ones below, have and continue to provide observations outside of the US.
Donald Trump is so petty that his administration has removed Canadian observations from the @NWS map.
This is what happens when the president has an ego of a toddler. Anyone care to explain how this is helpful at all? I’ll wait…
5874 tornado warnings so far in 2026 across the Lower 48 issued by National Weather Service
Arizona adding a few this week -- rare!

Josephine formed yesterday but will be another Atlantic "shortie" as it quickly morphs into a powerful extratropical storm today into Friday. It'll also do little to pick the season off the mat, which continues to be one of the least active on record. ⬇️

Phoenix, San Diego and Las Vegas haven’t had rain on a single Halloween in 30 years. Portland, Oregon: 19 of 30
Our Trick-or-Treat Forecast is live: 30 years of Halloweens at 100 cities now, and the 6-9PM forecast for yours from next Wednesday. Early lean: warmer than normal for the East, South and Midwest, cooler for the Northwest.
Vance is nearly a hurricane ... at low latitude only 9°N so plenty of room to run
The cloud pattern passes the "eye test" and we should have a Major Hurricane in the next 48-hours, or sooner.
Next storm is Winnie🐻
