A powerful East Coast storm is expected to intensify between Thursday and Friday, with significant uncertainty remaining about its exact path and impacts. Coastal flooding and erosion are the most certain threats, while rainfall totals will depend on the storm's precise track.
For the first time in recorded history, a sea turtle has nested on the West Coast of the U.S., laying eggs near Seal Beach, California. Scientists view this as a significant sign of warming ocean waters, driven by a major El Niño event.
A potent fall storm is rapidly strengthening off the Carolina coast, threatening the Northeast with strong winds, coastal flooding, and heavy rain this weekend. Its precise track remains uncertain, but southern New England is most likely to see the greatest impacts.
An enormous Kelvin wave, generated by El Niño, is expected to raise sea levels off Southern California by half a foot or more, increasing threats of coastal flooding and erosion. This comes as other factors, including warm Pacific waters and peak tidal cycles, also contribute to higher ocean levels.
