Heads up for possible major flood event this week for AZ, NM, CO, OK, KS due to remnants of Hurricane Polo and Odalys…a lot of moisture is headed your way! 🧪

There is a LOT of weather going on…impacting many people. I hope it’s nice and calm where you are. 🧪

The speed at which Polo reached CAT5 status yesterday was simply jaw dropping! Hawaii is also threatened again by TD-15E which will soon become Nolo. 🧪

Has your real estate agent been open and honest about where you want to move? Seems like the deck is stacked away from the purchasers where the in$entice is all in the seller’s/agents court. Buying a house, uninformed, in a location may cost you dearly. 🧪

Dave Jones | GeoCollaborate @geocollaborate.bsky.social · 07/09/2026
Hurricane warning now for Kauai County. Lowell will cause flooding and produce wind damage. Share with friends you may have on Hawaii. Another update this afternoon.

Many people have asked over the years about the cone of uncertainty that NHC issues when a tropical storm or hurricane threatens. This is the first time that I know of that the wind radii forecast has been used to help explain the cone. Let me know your thoughts. Ty. 🧪

If you have any friends or relatives in Hawaii send them this update and tell them to subscribe. We will be posting updates until Major Hurricane Lowell is no longer a threat to the island. 🧪 Mahalo!

Hawaii is threatened by another developing tropical system. This is not for sure to impact the islands but we are watching closely because Hawai’ians are still trying to grasp what happened with Lala! We will provide updates daily until this threat is over.🧪 🌀 ❤️

Dave Jones | GeoCollaborate @geocollaborate.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
There is a high probability of development (70%) that a tropical storm or hurricane will develop. It is too early to tell if Hawaii will be impacted again but NOAA is deploying the Hurricane Hunter WP-3D today. Video update will be issued later. 🧪

Hurricane Lala is dumping so much rain on the Big Island of Hawai’i that a FLASH FLOOD EMERGENCY has been issued for the parts of the island. Here is our latest update several hours ago: youtu.be/rA_VMH93uis?... 🧪 @elprager.bsky.social

Wow! GeoCollaborate showing the latest observations from ocean Gliders. South of Jamaica the depth of the 26°C isotherm is 173 meters! That’s deep!! For context Winter–early spring: roughly 40–70m July: commonly 70–100m Late summer–early fall: often 80–110m Warm eddies: locally deeper than 120m 🧪

Tropical Depression #2 forms in the Gulf. The current NHC forecast has potentially high impact flooding along the coast from the Florida panhandle to Texas coast. Slow moving tropical storms can have high impacts. Watch this one! 🧪 More updates coming this week. 🌀

There is a LOT going on in the atmosphere right now that will impact many people. The way in which El Nino is expanding will place us in uncharted waters by fall-winter. 🧪

Excellent piece about second highest tsunami on record in Alaska fjord 2025, link to climate change, and increased risks to cruise ships and tourists in the region. Based on Science article led by Daniel Shugar, Univ. Calgary (DOI: 10.1126/science.aec3187). 🧪 eos.org/articles/the...

The Forensics of a Skyscraper-Sized Tsunami - Eos
A landslide in Tracy Arm Fjord in Alaska created the second-largest tsunami on record. A new analysis links this abrupt event to the retreat of a glacier and, ultimately, to climate change.

The heat is on in subsurface equatorial waters, suggesting a strong El Nino on the way. Could devastate Galapagos wildlife (land and ocean). El Nino's shut down upwelling, reduce food availability for marine iguanas, sea lion pups, birds, penguins and more. Corals may also take a hit. 🧪

This is going to be an impactful storm for Hawaii. If you live there know what you will do in case of a flood, large battering waves and even a severe thunderstorm or tornado. Even winter storm watches and warnings are likely in the high elevations through the weekend.🧪
