If you live in the LA area and haven't already: 1. Make sure you're signed up for multiple different sources of evacuation notifications. 2. Pack a go bag. 3. Record a video of your home that shows all your belongings. Open closets, drawers, cabinets. Documentation is essential.

“the study suggests that the probability of occurrence of a high-impact extreme season similar to 2005 (i.e., 28 named storms) may increase around 4 times during the 2020 – 2049 period relative to the historical period (1970–2019).”

Another wacko Atlantic hurricane season is over! Details from @bhensonweather.bsky.social and I. Helene’s landfall gives the U.S. a record eight Cat 4 or Cat 5 Atlantic hurricane landfalls in the past eight years (2017-2024), as many as the prior 57 years. yaleclimateconnections.org/2024/12/the-...
