Here is our 11:15 PM ET update on #Idalia, and it's rather grim for the Big Bend and Apalachee Bay, where as much as 12 to 16 feet of water may arrive Wed AM. Winds are now 110 mph near the center, and Idalia landfall is expected as a Cat 4. Major hurricane force winds will come close to #tallahassee Lots of details and most questions answered in our post.

The forecast track of Idalia, which brings into Apalachee Bay, then north and northeast to just near Savannah, GA, then off the coast of South Carolina at Myrtle Beach, then out to sea.
A moderate risk of flash flooding exists from Apalachee Bay north into most of southeast Georgia, southeast South Carolina, and southeast North Carolina.
STORM SURGE: The combination of a dangerous storm surge and the tide will cause normally dry areas near the coast to be flooded by rising waters moving inland from the shoreline. The water could reach the following heights above ground somewhere in the indicated areas if the peak surge occurs at the time of high tide... Wakulla/Jefferson County line, FL to Yankeetown, FL...12-16 ft Ochlockonee River, FL to Wakulla/Jefferson County line, FL...8-12 ft Yankeetown to Chassahowitzka, FL...7-11 ft Chassahowitzka, FL to Anclote River, FL...6-9 ft Carrabelle, FL to Ochlockonee River, FL...5-8 ft Anclote River, FL to Middle of Longboat Key, FL...4-6 ft Tampa Bay...4-6 ft Middle of Longboat Key, FL to Englewood, FL...3-5 ft Indian Pass, FL to Carrabelle, FL...3-5 ft Englewood, FL to Bonita Beach, FL...2-4 ft Charlotte Harbor...2-4 ft Mouth of the St. Mary's River to South Santee, SC...2-4 ft Beaufort Inlet to Drum Inlet, NC...2-4 ft Pamlico and Neuse Rivers...2-4 ft South of Bonita Beach to Chokoloskee, FL...1-3 ft South Santee, SC to Beaufort Inlet, NC...1-3 ft Drum Inlet to Duck, NC...1-3 ft Chokoloskee, FL to East Cape Sable, FL...1-3 ft Flagler/Volusia County Line, FL to Mouth of St. Mary's River...1-3 ft Indian Pass to Mexico Beach...1 to 3 ft Florida Keys...1-2 ft

‘Era of Global Boiling’ Has Arrived, UN Chief Says

UN Secretary-General António Guterres warned, “The era of global warming has ended; the era of global boiling has arrived.

Officially erased my bird site presence this morning and with it my associated contacts. I haven't seen a wide-scale migration yet of the #weather / #wxtwitter community, which accounted for half of my Twitter contacts.

As a sort of final #introduction post and calling card for the weather community, one of my primary uses of Twitter was to share my #WeatherPhotography and #storm reports. I'll probably continue to share weather and #climate content here! CW's as needed. Some of my faves below.

A stormy sunset sky over wide open, golden plains. The clouds are pink, purple, and vibrant blue. Wind turbines are on the horizon.
A shelf cloud rolls over the plains. The cloud is grey and back-lit in shades of blue and green. The fields are treeless and shades of green to gold.
A storm blows in over open country, a windswept tree stands in the foreground. The clouds in the background are shades of grey to dark blue and blue-green.
Three bolts of purple cloud to ground lightning strike distant mountains with city lights in the foreground.

The Arctic blast in the northeastern U.S.& Canada reminded me of this #ClimateChange comic from nearly a decade ago by @rosemarymosco of Bird and Moon Comics. https://rosemarymosco.com/ #weather

Some plants can monitor #environmental #conditions around them and release #seeds at times #optimal for #dispersal.

#Dandelion seeds close up a bit in #wet #weather and don't travel as far as in their more open, #dry weather form. New #research (Seale et al. 2022) shows that dandelions hold on to seeds in wet weather and release them more in dry weather.

Do #plants exhibit #behavior? I would argue, yes.

Environmental morphing enables informed dispersal of the dandelion diaspore

The dandelion diaspore changes its shape depending on the moisture levels in the air, and this morphing enhances the dispersal potential of the seeds regardless of the weather conditions.

My cloud-connected, weather-forecasting cloud is my favorite all-time maker project, if you like it and are interested in tinkering, @arduino, @Raspberry_Pi, @sparkfun, @adafruit, etc. Please follow me. Thanks to all of the above for parts and instructions. #cloud #arduino #weather #google

The creek crossings about an hour ago (still not passable).

It has since started really bucketing down again, so they'll be higher and faster by now.
