A recent study explains how warmer temperatures at the top of the planet destabilize the jet stream and allow colder air to travel south.

The year 2024 was the hottest year on record. For the first time the average global temperature rose to 1.6C above preindustrial levels, exceeding the 1.5C vital to preventing accelerating climate change.

Across Kansas, 89 tornadoes were reported, more than double the 39 tornadoes counted in 2023."

Electric vehicles are off to a slow start in the Sunflower State, but Elon Musk and Panasonic battery plant could change that.

Not every weather fluctuation is demonstrably affected by climate change. But the impact of the steady increase in global temperature is now detectable in many extreme weather events—and likely many of the more normal ones, too, says Justin Mankin, a climate scientist at Dartmouth College.
