"Despite another warmer-than-normal month over most of the Unites States, the big story during October was the extremely dry conditions observed almost coast to coast. With the exceptions of peninsular Florida, which Hurricane Milton pummeled with upwards of 6 inches of rain in a single day, the extreme Pacific Northwest, and small parts of the Southwest, the remainder of the contiguous U.S. generally received less than 50% of normal precipitation, with some parts of the eastern U.S. receiving virtually no rainfall during the month." https://lnkd.in/eD7nxHw7

"Today, the Center for Collaborative Heat Monitoring opened applications for communities across the U.S. to monitor and evaluate factors influencing local heat risk, as part of President Biden’s Investing in America agenda. Funded through the Inflation Reduction Act, selected communities will receive $10,000 and technical support to collect heat distribution data through community-led campaigns." https://lnkd.in/ek-5B62P

"This is a guest post by Dr. Anne Getzin, a family physician and graduate of the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus Climate and Health Science Policy Fellowship, supported by the Climate and Health Foundation. During the course of her fellowship, Anne partnered with the NOAA Climate Program Office to explore models for education and communities of practice to improve health professionals’ exposure to and familiarity with the dynamic interplay between climate, the environment, and human health." https://lnkd.in/ekiBP9eX

Yesterday, Angelo Villagomez from the Center for American Progress joined the NOAA Climate Connections 2.0 conference to give a snapshot of the world of ocean conservation, focusing on Indigenous-led conservation and ocean justice. Take a moment and read up on Angelo's amazing work--nearly 20 years of advocacy for marine monuments and national marine sanctuaries in the U.S. Pacific territories.

"I’ll cut to the chase. Spooky season is coming to an end, and people are beginning to set their sights on winter. And when it comes to winter, there’s a big, white, abominable 'elephant' in the room. Snow. While you’re not going to find a seasonal snowfall prediction here at the ENSO Blog, what we can do, given that La Niña is favored this winter, is revisit the historical relationship between La Niña and snow across North America." https://lnkd.in/eUR9wNfY
