Bit of rain on the way.
Sunrise over Tropical Cyclone #Alfred 🌀

The center of Alfred is now only a few hundred kilometers east of Brisbane. Thunderstorms are concentrated south of its exposed low-level circulation.

Alfred remains at Category 2 strength for now, while its movement is slow and meandering.

Trump Killed a Major Report on Nature. They’re Trying to Publish It Anyway. (Gift Article)
The first full draft of the assessment, on the state of America’s land, water and wildlife, was weeks from completion. The project leader called the study “too important to die.”
