Typhoon #Kalmaegi makes landfall in Quy Nhơn, Vietnam after killing 114 in the Philippines, w/100+ ppl still missing.
To add insult to injury, the #Philippines (Luzon region) will likely be bracing for another monster typhoon #FungWong this weekend.

If you lived or grew up in Philly area, Pierre Robert was the voice of your day, for generations. So beloved, the best kind of human. Such sad news.
well done, good citizen.

6hrs 39mins, well done baseball. A momentary distraction from the hurricane disaster unfolding later today.

A star-studded view Inside Hurricane Melissa overnight as it further intensified toward Category 5 strength.

Senior meteorologist @matthewcappucci.bsky.social was on the NOAA Hurricane Hunter flight and the poetically peaceful – and perilous – center of the atmospheric buzzsaw:

Hurricane #Melissa absolutely terrifying on infrared satellite. The pink ring of very cold -80C cloud tops surrounding the eye.
...oohboy she is just cranking, my heart is with you Jamaica.

#Humberto is just ripping, what a buzzsaw. Cat 5 territory? Cheering you on to keep the SE coast from major impacts regarding soon-to-be #Imelda
September 27, 2025 at 3:51 PM
As per usual, another excellent video from Levi. We are watching here on the SE coast. #94L #Imelda
🌀 Thursday video update on Tropical Storm #Humberto and Invest #94L (would be named #Imelda if it develops).

🌀 These two storms are raising risks to the #TurksAndCaicos, #Bahamas, southeastern US, and #Bermuda this weekend and next week, though uncertainty is high.
