A hurricane watch has been issued for part of Florida as a strengthening tropical system, soon to become Tropical Storm Debby, approaches the state over the weekend. Tropical Depression Four is forecast to strengthen while moving northward along the Florida Peninsula's Gulf coast this weekend, spreading rain, gusty winds and severe thunderstorms slowly northward. AccuWeather meteorologists warn that not only may the feature become a hurricane, but it may also later stall along the southeastern United States coast next week.

We all know that climate change is slowly causing massive changes to our world. What you might not know is that those changes are more extensive than just rising sea levels. In fact, research has shown that Antarctica is rising up out of the ocean as it sheds its ice, and the effects on our planet are going to be massive.
The process is what scientists call post-glacial uplift, and a batch of new data gathered by researchers suggests that it could have a major impact on global sea levels going forward. First, it could reduce Antarctica’s overall contribution by up...

This year’s area of low oxygen in the Gulf of Mexico is larger than average, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced on Thursday. The “dead zone” is approximately 6,705 square miles , as measured last week. Within NOAA’s 38 years of measuring the dead zone, this year’s assessment marks the 12th-largest area of low to no oxygen, which can kill fish and marine life.

Since it debuted in 2020, tourists have been flocking to the area where John B. and Sarah’s feelings for each other began to grow, some hoping to find a new love of their own. While there’s certainly something magical about being surrounded by the massive Atlantic Ocean on the East Coast, there are risks that come with living in the Outer Banks full-time, as owners of a Rodanthe house learned the hard way this month.

Don Hall is an avid snowmobiler, but instead of heading for the hills each winter in search of deep powder, he takes an older snowmachine to lower elevations nearer the snow line. There’s a reason the Riverton resident prefers the lower zones despite the rocks, fences and sage most riders avoid: That’s where the coyotes are.

Wyoming allows snowmobilers to run down wildlife. Despite global outrage, it may stay legal.

Two recent studies predict the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) could collapse by mid-century due to climate change. This collapse would drastically lower temperatures in Northern Europe, causing significant disruptions. The primary cause is the influx of freshwater from Greenland's melting ice sheet, which disrupts the AMOC's flow. Despite the...
