Первые майские грозы прогнозируются в Москве 5-7 мая

"В дневные часы 5 и 6 мая отдельные грозы вероятны. Это связано с прохождением очень теплых воздушных масс (которые находятся над Московским регионом и ЦФО) и происходит летний процесс, когда образуются мощные конвективные облака из-за восходящих потоков воздуха от земли. Это будут очень фрагментарные грозы, они будут не повсеместно, и связаны с кучево-дождевой облачностью", - сообщил "Интерфаксу" заведующий отделом краткосрочных прогнозов погоды Гидрометцентра России Александр Голубев.

7 мая также прогнозируются кратковременный дождь и грозы.

🇮🇳 BJP Eyes First West Bengal Win in State Vote Count

India began counting votes across several states on May 4, with West Bengal as the primary contest. Modi's BJP holds a slight exit poll edge over Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, who has governed the state for 15 years. The campaign was dominated by a controversial voter roll revision — the Special Intensive Revision — which the opposition accused the BJP of using to manipulate results.

West Bengal carries the third-highest Lok Sabha seat count in India, making it a strategically significant prize beyond its regional weight. A BJP win would mark a major geographic expansion of the party's base beyond its traditional strongholds in northern and western India. The outcome is seen as an early indicator ahead of the 2029 national elections.

The results land as Modi faces mounting economic pressures domestically, adding a referendum dimension to what would otherwise be a state-level contest.

🇺🇸🌍 Trump's incoming Africa envoy Frank Garcia to take over a depleted US diplomatic corps on the continent

Fifteen months into his second term, President Donald Trump is set to finally appoint an Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, with Frank Garcia nominated for the role. The US currently has very few confirmed ambassadors across Africa, leaving significant gaps in diplomatic representation on the continent.

Democratic lawmakers have seized on the vacancies to accuse the Trump administration of deprioritising Africa, as the State Department's regional diplomatic infrastructure remains largely hollowed out.
