Climate crisis disasters are now happening at a rate of one every week, showing the need to invest in disaster risk reduction according to the UN.
The U.S. East Coast will only have to wilt under the thumb of an oppressive heat wave for one more day before temperatures plummet and relief is heralded by heavy rain and thunderstorms.
Heat combined with high humidity created a potential deadly mix of oppressive conditions across the central and eastern U.S. for the past few days, canceling outdoor activities and sending energy use rocketing up. While all-time records didn’t fall, records for the date were set at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, where readings reached 99 degrees Fahrenheit, and in Manchester, New Hampshire.
“Today, across New England and the mid-Atlantic this will be the last day,” said Rich Otto, a forecaster with the U.S. Weather Prediction Center in College Park, Maryland. “The relief is coming from the west.”
Heat advisories and excessive heat warnings on Sunday stretched from Oklahoma to Ohio and along the East Coast from Maine to South Carolina. The combination of high temperatures and humidity would make it feel as hot as 110 degrees in New York and Washington. Some spots could even feel warmer.
A triathlon scheduled for the weekend in New York was called off, along with a 10-mile (16-kilometer) marathon training run in Central Park. Public swimming pools run by the city’s Parks Department are staying open for an extra hour. Horse racing was canceled on Saturday at the Saratoga Race Course, about 180 miles north of the city. It’s been 13 years since extreme heat caused that to happen, the New York Racing Association said.
Relief has already arrived in Chicago, where Sunday’s high was only set to reach 76 degrees down from 95 on Saturday, the National Weather Service said.
High temperatures across the Great Plains and Midwest will fall 10 to 20 degrees below normal as the front passes, Otto said.
“It will be significantly cooler than what they have been seeing,” Otto said. “That cool weather is going to stick around for a good part of this week.”
Readings in the mid-Atlantic, New York and New England also will drop about 10 degrees below normal. The cool weather will reach deep into the U.S. South as well, said Jim Rouiller, chief meteorologist at the Energy Weather Group near Philadelphia.
“The cold front responsible for a strong cool down that will occur next week is currently tracking southeastward across the Upper Plains, Great Lakes and Midwest and will reach the Southeast and Deep South by Wednesday,” Rouiller said. He added it’s “very unusual for a summer cold front to surge so far the south.”
As the front passes it will be trigger heavy rain and scattered thunderstorms that could raise flash flooding concerns particularly from West Virginia to New Jersey, Otto said. That region has received a lot of rain in past weeks and it won’t take much to swell streams and rivers.
“It is definitely a very juicy air mass,” Otto said.
As the subsides in the U.S., it will surge across Europe. Temperatures will reach 34 Celsius (93 Fahrenheit) in London by Wednesday, up from 21 on Sunday, according to the Met Office. Paris is forecast to be as hot as 38 degrees Celsius by the middle of the week, while Madrid is already baking in almost 40-degree heat.

Science may explain the how. But theology explains the why. We are living in the last days before the Messiah's return and the destruction of the wicked.
To bad we can't control the sun and solar cycles. Guess we will just have to buy warmer coats and plan on shorter growing season's for the area's of the planted effected by the sun as it make's it's historical and cyclical transitions during this period of earth changes. Just a normal part of the sun's effect on the planetary solar system we live in.
Stop 🛑 trying to control climate change, it’s not for humanity to control weather.
“We are not morally bad people for taking carbon and turning it into the energy that offers life to humanity in a world that would otherwise be brutal,” Christy wrote in a recent oped. “On the contrary, we are good people for doing so.”
Carbon-based energy, which is “the most affordable and reliable source of energy in demand today, liberates people from poverty,” Christy explained to CNSNews.com. “Without energy, life is brutal and short.”
Pointing out that it was “warmer 4,000 to 5,000 years ago than it is today,” Christy said that the computer models cited by the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) predicted global warming that is “three times” what the satellite data shows is the Earth’s actual temperature. “It demonstrates we do not know how to model the climate system, in my view,” Christy said.
“All the datasets show some slight warming (+0.11 degrees Celsius per decade since Nov. 16, 1978), some more than others,” he told CNSNews.com. “But still, the amount of warming is much, much less than what was anticipated from climate models, and that’s what I’ve been showing and demonstrating in various venues, including Congress.
“In a congressional hearing last May, I demonstrated that the models are significantly above in their temperature projection from where we actually are right now. So if you go back 36 years to 1979 and run the models, they all show lots of warming. The real world shows very little warming” despite rising levels of CO2.
On May 13, Christy told the House Committee on Natural Resources that even if the U.S. completely eliminated its fossil fuel emissions, so that “there would be no industry, no cars, no utilities, no people” – the impact on global temperatures would be “so tiny as to be immeasurable.”
“The two largest impacts on temperature are the El Ninos in the Pacific as well as volcanic eruptions, which shade the Earth when they put the dust and smoke in the stratosphere. So once you account for both of those, there’s not a whole lot of warming in the planet,” Christy told CNSNews.com.
“The conclusion we have reached is that the world, the global climate, is not very sensitive to carbon dioxide. And that can occur if the climate responds in its many facets to release heat – when you add the heat from carbon dioxide. So carbon dioxide does allow more heat to be retained in the climate system, but the climate system also has many ways to allow an increased release of heat into space.
NO ! 0% evidence
STOP seeding the clouds and you won't have so many new disasters .
Et Tu Bloomberg?…on the brainwashed "CO2" is bad bandwagon.
Carbon taxes don't change solar output, and useless feel-good environmentalism, like plastic straw bans
…don't improve lives, economies, or the environment.
Actually..not a shocker..since your owner wants to ban guns…even though more legal guns always means less crime and more liberty.
This is not true. You have to look at thousands of year to have enough data. Studies show man is not significant. The SUN is
Garbage.
It’s very interesting that most climate change deniers are the same “people of faith” who are happy to have the racist pussy-grabber-in-chief at the helm of the US. No morals, no responsibility, no clue!
Human-based greenhouse gases cause global warming: http://www.climatelevels.org
Pole Shift=Weaker Magnetosphere =more Solar forcing of our weather and a squeezing of the jetstreams=Fkd up weather patterns!! Throw in a Grand Solar Minimum and "Houston we have a problem". Our Sun is the Clock! Tic-Toc……..
Baseless Propaganda
Any serious attempt to compare current weather events to those in the past shows it so.
A propaganda clip. Yay!
Did you know only 2% of the 90% of Global Warming Peer-Review papers promote this Scam.
more than once a week watch sott monthly report
your add for ‘no races, no borders’ is in the way and now i can’t read
Check out GeoengineeringWatch.org for information on how man is manipulating the weather and using it as a weapon. On the main page you will see a clip of President Johnson licking his chops at the prospect of ruling the world by controlling the weather.
