NORTHLAND FORECAST FOR MAY 2, 2025:

A #storm system will push #rain #showers through the #Northland Thursday night, keeping a light #breeze going, and drop #temperatures to the 30s for lows.

Some #snowflakes could mix in with showers Friday morning before they leave in the afternoon. #Winds will calm as high temperatures remain #cool in the 40s and low 50s.

Mass #CoralBleaching has frequently coincided w/episodes of #ElNiño, a global #climate pattern that usually increases #temperatures. That was the case in 1998, 2016 & again last year, which was the warmest year on record.
#Oceans have been steadily absorbing rising temperatures for years, but in 2023 & 2024, temps broke records w/spikes that alarmed scientists. #Seas are also becoming more acidic as they warm, which can dissolve corals’ skeletons & make it harder for them to grow.

“Bleaching becomes more severe if either the #heat stress episodes are more intense or if they last for a longer time,” Joerg Wiedenmann, a marine biologist who heads the #CoralReef Lab at the University of Southampton in England, said….
The #Earth’s rising #temperatures have caused bleaching events to occur more often & last longer, he said. The changing & mixing of #ocean currents can also influence regional water temperatures, he added, further increasing the risk of bleaching.

“The ongoing global #CoralBleaching event is the biggest to date,” #NOAA scientists said.

Bleaching occurs when #heat upends the #coral’s metabolism, causing it to turn white as it expels the symbiotic algae that provide it with nutrients & color. Bleaching doesn’t mean the coral has died, but prolonged bleaching — which scientists say is made more frequent & severe by rising #sea #temperatures — can kill it.

Largest #coral bleaching event on record harms 84% of #global #reefs

Bleached coral dies when exposed to #heat stress for too long, threatening the bountiful #marine #ecosystem that depends on it for survival.

#CoralReefs around the world are losing their color at an unprecedented scale as a result of rising #sea #temperatures, marine scientists announced this week, w/ 84% of reefs exposed to bleaching levels of heat since 2023.

Global temperatures hit historic highs for March.

Global temperatures remained at historic highs in March, extending an unprecedented heat streak, Europe's Copernicus Climate Change Service reported Tuesday.

Europe experienced its warmest March on record by a significant margin, intensifying unusual rainfall patterns across the rapidly warming continent.

NORTHLAND FORECAST FOR APRIL 3, 2025:

#Snow #showers will persist through the #Northland Wednesday night as they become lighter and more scattered. #Winds remain #strong with gusts over 30 mph with lows just below the freezing point.

Thursday will see the snow move out with a bit of #sunshine after noon. Winds remain breezy as #temperatures #warm to the upper 30s and low 40s for highs.

#Butterflies in the #US are disappearing at a ‘catastrophic’ rate
Butterflies are rapidly fluttering out of existence from coast to coast at a rate that scientists worry could upend #ecosystems & undercut #pollination that sustains America’s #crops.
The total number of butterflies in the contiguous US has declined 22% over a 20yr period, as shrinking #habitat, rising #temperatures & a #toxic array of #pesticides kill off the delicate insects.

NORTHLAND FORECAST FOR MARCH 6, 2025:

A #high-pressure system will #clear #clouds across the #Northland Wednesday night and #calm #winds. Low #temperatures will drop to the teens and upper single digits.

A weak #front will bring some clouds back to the region Thursday, but we remain #dry as a #breeze returns. Highs will #warm back to the 30s.
