Temperatures are likely to reach the upper 90’s to around 100 degrees F centered over portions of the Central and Southern High Plains, with heat index values of 100-105 degrees F. Dry, gusty surface winds may elevate wildfire risk during the first few days of the week-2 period.

May looks to be a busy month for possible tropical cyclone (TC) formation over parts of the western North Pacific. There is a 20-40% chance of TC formation around Guam and the CNMI during week-2, and greater than 60% chance of TC development in this same region during week-3. https://t.co/T0Z5cFVuP6

Most countries spend less than half of what adequate waste management requires.
But here's the catch: the cost of inaction—flooding, health crises, environmental damage—consistently exceeds the cost of fixing the system. #WhatAWaste 3.0 makes the case: https://t.co/ZPp0nqTajB https://t.co/WYWNMOjjlc

It's National Hurricane Preparedness Week:

The best time to prepare for hurricanes is BEFORE hurricane season begins. Avoid having to rush through potentially life-saving preparations by waiting until it’s too late. #HurricanePrep #HurricaneStrong https://t.co/qgaWqn6JOw https://t.co/CYfnjEfzDa - National Weather Service

In a hurricane, deadly hazards can occur well outside of the cone. Impacts can be felt far from the storm's center, even well inland and outside the forecast cone. The cone does NOT represent the size of the storm in any way. An example below is Hurricane Irma, which had a wind field that extended well beyond the cone.
