Are you fucking kidding me.

Not exactly what you want to see in the forecast following a major flooding event in the Pacific NW. Freezing levels will be lower with this next atmospheric river (Pineapple Express), but another major batch of precipitation is on its way.

You have got to be kidding me.
Free speech continues to deteriorate in the US under Trump.

The regime ordered the increase to rejections of European travellers, especially those who criticize Trump, Russia, or Israel on social media.

Travellers are being forced to reveal 5 years of social media history.

In case you need some good news on your feed these days...
GOOD NEWS! Researchers have developed a cancer vaccine that has shown STUNNING results, PREVENTING up to 88% of MULTIPLE aggressive cancers by harnessing dual-pathway nanoparticles that train the immune system to recognize and destroy tumor cells. In some cases, it COMPLETELY prevented metastasis.

This is utterly/irrevocably evil and likely constitutes crimes against humanity.
Amnesty International released findings from its investigation into the Everglades Concentration Camp (Alligator Alcatraz), which was built by the Florida Division of Emergency Management.

They found evidence of torture, among other human rights violations.

Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

F*ck off (impolitely).
The White House just blasted this out under the headline "Good News You May Have Missed"
November 20, 2025 at 12:24 AM
That is one of the worst calls I've ever seen.

This would absolutely destroy the atmospheric sciences and numerous institutions.
“The prohibited activities would include joint research, co-authorship on papers, and advising a foreign graduate student or postdoctoral fellow. The language is retroactive, meaning any interactions during the previous 5 years could make a scientist ineligible for future federal funding.”

This headline is mind bogglingly terrible.
A teenager in Florida with a homeless parent wanted money for braces and ended up having sex for money with powerful men, setting off a chain of events that would have a dramatic impact on her life and help upend the political career of Representative Matt Gaetz. nyti.ms/49PSkL9

Lesser known on this day is the powerful 975 mb storm making landfall in Oregon in this satellite image that brought hurricane-like pressure tendencies/winds to the coast and 70+ mph gusts inland. The Fitzgerald storm was not the only tempest in the US this day.

Absolutely insane and incredibly illegal.
Breaking news: The Trump administration is sending messages to federal staff suggesting only those who are working during the government shutdown will be paid when it ends, despite a 2019 law that guarantees pay to furloughed employees, too.
Administration hints furloughed workers may not be paid after shutdown
Agencies are sending messages indicating that workers who are on the job will be paid when the government reopens — with no mention of those on furlough, despite a 2019 law protecting their wages.

The damage I’ve seen coming out of Western Jamaica from #Melissa is nothing short of catastrophic.

Upshear convection in Melissa’s eyewall is absolutely exploding again. Near -90°C cloud tops and a huge increase in lightning.

It is so patently absurd that this guy got let go from his HURRICANE FORECASTING job because of some 16-20 year old right wing DOGE nutjob and Elon.
