Philippines Hit by Deadly Landslides as Typhoon Bavi Closes in on Taiwan and China

Typhoon Bavi’s outer bands trigger deadly landslides in the southern Philippines, killing at least 15 people in Sarangani and Lanao del Sur as the storm tracks toward Taiwan and China. PAGASA says Bavi will not make landfall in the Philippines, but heavy rainfall and flooding could affect Manila and nearby areas. Evacuations are underway, and Bavi has already impacted Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands, with further impacts anticipated in Taiwan, Japan, and southern China.

El Niño Settles In: Quiet Atlantic Season, Wetter South Florida Ahead

El Niño Settles In: Quiet Atlantic Season, Wetter South Florida Ahead

NOAA and climate models indicate El Niño will strengthen and likely persist into early 2027, dampening Atlantic tropical development via increased wind shear and forecasting a below-average 2026 hurricane season (CSU projects about 9 named storms, 4 hurricanes). For South Florida, the pattern points to a cooler, wetter, and potentially stormier winter driven by a persistent subtropical jetstream, signaling notable contrasts to the prior winter.

Record Heat Dome Targets Drought-Scarred West, Elevating Fire Risk

Record Heat Dome Targets Drought-Scarred West, Elevating Fire Risk

A widespread heat dome is forecast to push temperatures well into the 100s and up to about 110°F across the Intermountain West and northern Plains, threatening tie-or-break records from Salt Lake City to Billings and driving higher fire-weather risk as drought persists; forecasters warn the heat could intensify this weekend, with monsoonal moisture and a moister air mass potentially offering some relief by mid-to-late July.

NOAA raises odds of a historically strong El Niño this fall

NOAA raises odds of a historically strong El Niño this fall

NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center now puts an 81% chance that this El Niño will reach a “very strong” level by fall, up from 63% in June, with a 97% chance it lasts into early 2027. Only about seven of the last 75 El Niño events have been “very strong,” so this could be among the strongest on record. Very strong El Niños tend to reshape global weather—bringing heat waves, droughts, and heavy rainfall in different regions—while likely reducing Atlantic hurricane activity and potentially yielding a milder winter for parts of the U.S.; it may also raise high-tide flooding risk on the West Coast and affect marine life and algal blooms. The strongest on record was the 1982-83 event (RONI +2.5°C). Forecasts can still shift and impacts are not guaranteed.

Heat Dome Grips Western Europe, Prolonging Extreme Heat Through Mid-July

Heat Dome Grips Western Europe, Prolonging Extreme Heat Through Mid-July

A massive upper-level heat dome anchored over Western and Southwestern Europe is trapping hot, dry air and driving temperatures well above normal into mid-July, with Iberia and France already recording 40°C-plus days, tropical nights in major cities, worsening soil moisture deficits, and escalating wildfire risk as the pattern expands north and east toward the UK, Ireland, and central Europe.

Chicago's Deep Tunnel Near Capacity After Historic Rainfall

After a soggy start to summer, Chicago's Deep Tunnel is nearly full as the Thornton Reservoir hits 94% capacity (7.4 billion gallons)—the fullest it's ever been—while the McCook Reservoir is also full at 3.6 million gallons, signaling potential river flooding in the south suburbs if capacity is exceeded; the McCook expansion will add 6.5 billion gallons by 2032, and rainfall totals across the region have been record-setting (Midway 11.43 inches since June 1; O’Hare 8.56 inches), with a drier stretch forecast before more storms later in the week.

Tri-State Braces for Flash Flood Threat as NYC Area Faces Heavy Rain and Outages

Storms brought heavy rain and flash flood warnings across the NYC area and tri-state, with the threat winding down this afternoon as the system moves offshore. Suffolk County is the main focus for any additional warnings (possible 2 more inches in isolated spots), while New Jersey and parts of the city saw widespread impacts including power outages, road closures such as Belt Parkway flooding, and a roof collapse at a BJ’s Wholesale Club in Ocean Township. Officials urged caution, advised avoiding flooded roadways, and warned that lingering showers could continue as conditions evolve and the storm exits the region.

Big Apple Braces for Monday Flood Threat as Downpours Hit NYC

Forecasters warned New York City to expect multiple rounds of heavy rain and severe flash flooding, with potential rainfall of up to two inches per hour and as much as six inches in the worst spots. The flood watch extends into Tuesday morning, and Mayor Zohran Mamdani activated the city’s Flash Flood Emergency Plan as departments prep catch basins and emergency crews. Residents are urged to limit travel during peak rainfall, check on neighbors, and stay indoors during strong winds and thunderstorms, following a weekend heat wave that left the city scorching.

Bavi pounds Guam region with 150 mph winds at landfall

Super Typhoon Bavi made landfall near Guam, delivering winds over 150 mph to the Northern Mariana Islands and prompting warnings of heavy rain (up to about 20 inches) and tropical-storm conditions through Monday night. Saipan airport logged gusts over 100 mph, power outages persisted, and residents were urged to shelter in interior rooms and stay away from windows as the storm moved west toward the Philippines.
