It looks like Saipan may be having a rough time with the super typhoon right now. Hopefully everyone is safe.

Such a beautiful island above and below the water. Here's an eagle ray from my dive trip there.

2025 was one of three hottest years on record, scientists say

By Alexa St. John
Dec. 30, 2025 6 AM PT

"#ExtremeWeather events kill thousands of people and cost billions of dollars in damage annually.

"#WWA scientists identified 157 extreme weather events as most severe this year, meaning they met criteria such as causing more than 100 deaths, affecting more than half an area’s population or leading to a state of emergency being declared. Of those they closely analyzed 22.

"That included dangerous #HeatWaves, which the WWA said were the world’s deadliest extreme weather events this year. The researchers said some of the heat waves they studied were 10 times more likely than they would have been a decade ago because of #ClimateChange.

" 'The heat waves we have observed this year are quite common events in our climate today, but they would have been almost impossible to occur without human-induced climate change,' Otto said. 'It makes a huge difference.'
Prolonged drought contributed to #wildfires that scorched #Greece and #Turkey. Torrential rains and #flooding in #Mexico killed dozens of people and left many more missing. #SuperTyphoon #FungWong slammed the #Philippines, forcing more than a million people to evacuate. #Monsoon rains battered #India with floods and landslides.

"The WWA said the increasingly frequent and severe extremes threatened the ability of millions of people across the globe to respond and adapt to those events with enough warning, time and resources, what the scientists call 'limits of adaptation.' The report pointed to #HurricaneMelissa as an example: The storm intensified so quickly that it made forecasting and planning more difficult, and pummeled #Jamaica, #Cuba and #Haiti so severely that it left the small island nations unable to respond to and handle its extreme losses and damage. "
