Greeting everyone and thanks for stopping by. There are several more weeks in the North American severe weather season, so I will continue this week with more severe weather safety infographics for you. We also have our weekly look at the latest update of the US Drought Monitor. There are several other interesting science reads to review, so let’s get started.
- The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) continues to amaze us with new information. Here’s a fascinating read on how the JWST may have found some of the oldest stars in the universe.
- The ongoing smoke plumes from Canadian wildfires present a substantial threat to human health. Here’s a look as how the air quality where you live, regardless of your health status, can effect your well being.
- ICYMI: This is an important El Niño update that will affect your weather for months to come.
- Here is this weeks update on the USA Drought Monitor. Conditions east of the Mississippi river have improved a great deal. Extreme or exceptional drought conditions continue for a few central and southern plains states. Recent thunderstorms have helped ease drought conditions across Kansas, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Texas.
SEVERE WEATHER PREPAREDNESS AND SAFETY
- The severe weather season in 2023 continues. This week, we’ll review very important tornado safety information. The threat from tornadoes doesn’t diminish with the arrival of summer. On the contrary, it ranges year round. In addition, here is an essential read on severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, and related hazards in an excellent 20 page PDF file from the National Weather Service…”Thunderstorms, Tornadoes, and Lightning. Nature’s Most Violent Storms.”
This important infographic focuses on winter weather and social media. However, it also applies to ANY weather conditions that occur years round regardless of where you live. Remember that your NOAA weather radio, local NWS Office, and the broadcast meteorologists of your choice are always the best choices for all types of weather…from clement to life threatening situations.
That’s a wrap for this post! Thanks to everyone for stopping by. A big ‘Thank You’ to all of you who pay this website a visit and follow Tornado Quest in social media!
