- 1El Niño on track to be strongest on record▼This year’s El Niño is on track to be the strongest on record. It could also be a glimpse of our climate future.
Meteorologists report that this year's El Niño is on track to become the strongest ever recorded. Scientists warn the event may offer a preview of what a warming climate could bring, as El Niño typically drives extreme heat, droughts, and floods across many parts of the world. Commentators are urging preparation for disruptive weather patterns in the months ahead.
- 2Two Oceans Show Historically Unusual Hurricane Season Patterns▼Hurricane season is broken. Two oceans are historically out of whack
USA Today reports that hurricane activity is behaving abnormally across two ocean basins, with conditions described as historically out of whack. The Atlantic and Pacific seasons have both deviated from typical patterns, prompting meteorologists and readers to question how climate change may be reshaping storm formation, timing, and intensity this year.

A storm system is being described as the most powerful of its kind in 85 years, drawing heavy attention as severe weather coverage spreads online. Meteorologists and storm trackers are urging people in its path to prepare, warning that the scale and intensity of the event are rare for the region it threatens.
- 6TV meteorologists push climate talk on air, facing pushback▼Some TV meteorologists want to talk about climate change. Not everyone wants to hear it
Some television meteorologists are working climate change into their weather forecasts, a shift that has drawn resistance from parts of their audiences. The CBC reports that broadcasters who connect daily weather to longer-term climate trends are encountering viewers who do not want to hear it. The debate highlights the growing role of on-air weather presenters as a trusted bridge between scientific research and the public.
- 7Tropical Storm Hanna Forms in the Atlantic●Tracking the tropics: Tropical Storm Hanna forms in the Atlantic
Tropical Storm Hanna has formed in the Atlantic, according to meteorologists tracking the tropics. Forecasters are monitoring the storm's path and expected development as the season progresses. Residents in potentially affected coastal areas are being urged to follow updates from the National Hurricane Center as forecasts for the system's track and intensity are refined.
- 8Hurricane Nolo's westward shift could fuel Category 3 intensification●Hurricane Nolo: Westward move may help it become Cat 3 storm
Hurricane Nolo is tracking westward, and that change in course may allow the storm to strengthen into a Category 3 hurricane. A westward path can carry a cyclone over more favourable waters and atmospheric conditions, supporting rapid intensification. Meteorologists are watching the storm's movement closely for updated track and intensity forecasts.

Tropical Storm Hanna has formed, according to a report from US broadcaster WITN. Details about its projected path, strength, or landfall risk have not yet been released. Hanna marks the latest named storm of the hurricane season, and residents in potentially affected coastal areas are expected to monitor forecasts as meteorologists refine their outlooks.
- 10Polar vortex returns: what it means for winter▼The polar vortex is returning. What's its role for winter?
Coverage is focusing on the return of the polar vortex, the band of cold air circling the Arctic, and its influence on the coming winter. When the vortex weakens or shifts, frigid air can spill into Europe and North America, driving cold snaps and storms. Meteorologists are weighing how its behavior could shape seasonal forecasts.
- 11Tropical Storm Gonzalo becomes post-tropical in Atlantic●Tropical storm Gonzalo transitions into post-tropical system in the Atlantic
Tropical Storm Gonzalo has lost its tropical characteristics and transitioned into a post-tropical system over the open Atlantic, according to forecasters. The storm no longer poses the organized wind and rain threat typical of tropical cyclones, and its remnants are expected to continue moving across the ocean. Meteorologists are monitoring whether any remains affect shipping routes or distant shores.
- 12Eastern Pacific Stays Active as New Atlantic Area Emerges▼Tropical Update: Eastern Pacific Stays Active; Another area to watch in the Atlantic
Forecasters are tracking continued tropical activity in the Eastern Pacific while monitoring a new area of interest in the Atlantic. Both basins are being watched for potential development, with meteorologists urging coastal residents to stay informed as the systems evolve. Details on the storm's expected strength and track remain limited.
- 13Two tropical systems tracked in the Atlantic●Tracking two tropical systems in the Atlantic | A new named storm is possible this week
Meteorologists are monitoring two tropical systems in the Atlantic basin, and forecasters say one could develop into the next named storm this week. Forecasters are watching projected paths and development chances, with updates expected as conditions evolve.

Tropical Storm Hanna has formed in the Atlantic Ocean, according to local news reports. Forecasters say the storm is not expected to threaten any land areas at this time, so there are no warnings or watches in effect for coastal communities. Meteorologists continue to track the system's movement and strength, and residents are being urged to monitor official updates as the Atlantic hurricane season progresses.
