Ben Noll's analysis on humidity trends seems to back up my own personal observations that our North Carolina summers are now significantly more humid than even 15 years ago. #NCwx

Trump is likely alive and just resting. But I do believe he has a minor to moderate disease of some sort. Likely enough to stop him from trying to run for an unconstitutional third term in 2028. There's a lot of smoke at this point.

Call this for what it is... Israel's war of annihilation on Gaza.
For another comparison, there's also an aerial view from a similar perspective, though at lower altitude since it's from a drone photographer, here on Facebook from 2019: www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=...
The drone photo is closer to 31.5057, 34.4619 whereas the plane photo is closer to the coast.

BREAKING: FEMA removed dozens of Camp Mystic buildings from their 100-year flood map in Texas in response to appeals.
FEMA removed dozens of Camp Mystic buildings from 100-year flood map before expansion, records show
Federal regulators repeatedly granted appeals to remove Camp Mystic’s buildings from their 100-year flood map, as the camp operated and expanded in a dangerous flood plain in the years before rushing waters swept away children and counselors.

#Chantal brought 7-12" or rain over part of NC, which corresponds to almost TWO MONTHS of rain in just 24 hours.
Also, about 400 square miles experienced a 1 in 100 year flooding event

All true:
- NOAA funding cuts prohibit the agency to run at full capacity
- Remaining NOAA employees doing exceptional / heroic work
- Extreme events happen; sometimes unexpectedly
- 20th century infrastructure is inadequate for today's climate
- Finger pointing as an event is ongoing? Shameful.

If I'm reading this correctly... NOAA is proposing reduction of 2456 positions across the agency.

This is just awful.
Some former employees of the NOAA who were fired, rehired and fired again this spring say they have received debt notices from the federal government to pay it back for health care coverage.
Those workers also say the notices are for coverage they never had.

Actions of all administrations of last 24 years led us to this moment. GWB... Obama... Biden... Trump. And you can absolutely sense the bipartisan frustration with how we're handling the Middle East.

We saw this during Hurricane Helene too. It was shocking.
The disparity btwn what’s actually happening in Los Angeles and the way it’s being mischaracterized is one of the biggest stress tests of modern media in recent memory. Botted socials, AI, old clips, declining literacy—it’s like seeing a broken emergency response system hit by a storm.

Wow. "To even land on Lutnick’s desk, NOAA contracts must first go through an approval process led in part by Keegan McLaughlin, a former Temple University student who worked as a food hall monitor last year and lists his Eagle Scout award on his LinkedIn résumé."
