Greetings everyone and happy new year! May 2025 be a year of good health, happiness, and gratitude for all of you. I’m glad you stopped by. This week, we’ve got some good science reads, winter weather safety information, and the latest US Drought Monitor update. Let’s get started.
- The science of our sun is fascinating. 2025 promises to be a year in which we learn a lot about the star that we can’t live without.
- Yes, working here will be cold, but the work is very important.
- Here’s a look back at how climate change made everyday life miserable for millions around the globe.
- It’s winter for the northern hemisphere and that often means snow. Have you ever wondered how snow crystals form? Take a look at this fascinating video on how snow crystals form and what it takes to grow one in a laboratory setting.
- Here’s the latest update on the US Drought Monitor. Like last week, drought conditions have stayed much the same this week across most of the contiguous USA. Improvement has occurred in small areas, but many regions are still in extreme to exceptional drought conditions. The latest fire weather outlooks can be found at the Storm Prediction Center website where they are updated daily.
