NOAA issues massive El Niño warning
According to a report from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), there is an 81% chance that the current, rapidly intensifying El Niño weather pattern will become "very strong" by autumn. Driven by a combination of natural ocean warming and human-induced climate change, Pacific water temperatures are reaching record levels. This developing phenomenon is expected to bring severe weather impacts between autumn and winter, increasing the probability of droughts, heatwaves, and a wetter winter across the southern United States, while simultaneously weakening the Atlantic hurricane season.

CDC: People living in the Southwest US need to be aware of dust storms that stir up dangerous fungal spores
People living in the southwestern U.S. and Washington need to be aware of potential fungal storms that occur when weather events such as dust storms, high winds, and floods cause spores of the soil-dwelling Coccidioides species to release into the air.
