Virginia Beach Tornado Causes Serious Damage to Homes

On Sunday night, a tornado caused significant damage to at least a dozen homes in the Great Neck area just north of Virginia Beach, according to city officials. The storm struck the area around 6 p.m. local time, and no injuries were reported. Videos posted on social media showed debris being tossed into the air by the tornado, while Virginia Beach firefighters responded to reports of "major storm damage" and "multiple homes with gas leaks." Footage from the area revealed homes with completely torn off roofs. This tornado was the second to cause damage over the weekend, following one in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, which flipped vehicles and caused damage to homes.

amoc collapse climate warning 2055

AMOC Collapse Warning: Scientists Predict Climate Chaos by 2025 Understanding the AMOC: The Atlantic's Climate Engine The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) is a vast and complex system of ocean currents that transports warm waters from the tropics northward while returning cooler waters southward. Often described as a giant conveyor belt, the AMOC play a critical role in regulating global climate patterns , influencing everything from rainfall in Africa to winters in Europe. If this essential circulation were to collapse , the consequences could be catastrophic: prolonged droughts in parts of Africa, harsher winters in Northwestern Europe, rising sea levels along the U.S. eastern seaboard and intensified storms across the Atlantic. The AMOC is, in effect, one of the planet's climate stabilizers--its failure could tip ecosystems and societies into turmoil. New Research Signals an Urgent Threat For decades, scientists have monitored the AMOC, noting signs of gr...

future-atmospheric-rivers-ocean-level-rise

Future Atmospheric Rivers Could Cause Devastating Ocean Level Rise off West Coast, Simulation Suggests A climate research team from NSF NCAR, Texas A&M , and Penn State has found that future atmospheric rivers forming in the Pacific could drive significant ocean level increases along North America's shores. Exploring Past Atmospheric Rivers In their study published in Communications Earth & Environment , the team explores past atmospheric rivers and applies this knowledge to future ARs, factoring in global warming . The Impact of Climate Change In the coming century, the global climate is set to undergo significant changes, including rising tem peratures and varying  preci pitation  patterns. However, less attention has been given to the ongoing shifts in ocean conditions, where both air and water tem peratures are increasing. Im pact of Carbon Dioxide on Oceans The carbon dioxide contributing to global warming is also acidifying the oceans, while melting  polar ...

unpredictable heat waves global map

Mysterious Heat-Wave Hotspots Emerge Worldwide, Leaving Scientists Puzzled Record-Breaking Temperatures and the Rise of Extreme Heat Events 2023 holds the record as the Earth's hottest year, with an average temperature 2.12° F above the 20th-century norm. This exceeded the  previous high set in 2016. Remarkably, the  past decade has  seen the to p 10 warmest years ever recorded . With the hottest summer and single day in history, 2024 is poised to break new records. The Emergence of Extreme Heat-Wave Hots pots This may not come as a sur prise to all, but amid the steady rise in average tem peratures, a striking anomaly has emerged: certain regions are ex periencing recurring heat waves so severe they sur pass the  predictive sco pe of current global warming models. Ma p ping the Hots pots Researchers in the Proceeding of the National Academy of Sciences have  published the first global ma p  pin pointing regions of recurrent extreme heat waves, seen acros...
