There would be three victims in New Jersey in the city of Plainfield due to floods caused by a storm that has impacted the northeast United States; there is talk of a weather situation characterized by high temperatures and high humidity which tends to intensify the effects of the storm. Floods have also occurred in New York and south-central Pennsylvania, and some have criticized New York's sewer system despite significant funds allocated due to the torrents of water that have flooded an underground station and the subway tunnels in Manhattan, with strong splashes and jets of water seemingly due to the figurative comparison that if for example one tries to pour two liters of water quickly into a bottle that can hold a maximum of one liter the water spurts out forcefully and in jets.
Due to the smoke emitted from the wildfires burning vegetation in Ontario and the Prairies air quality in Toronto is among the worst in the world leading to a warning for the population to limit outdoor activities especially considering the extreme heat affecting the city with particular attention to vulnerable individuals, visibility is limited and the use of masks is advised; moreover there are significant hardships for the population in the Pikangikum First Nation also due to wildfires that have burned energy distribution poles leaving vast areas in darkness (sometimes food reserves are scarce). Shifting focus to the United States the search efforts have resumed for around one hundred sixty missing people from the recent floods in Texas after heavy rains and severe weather; in the meantime the death toll has risen to at least one hundred thirty-two.
There are reportedly two missing persons in Catalonia (an "autonomous" community in the northeast of Spain) due to heavy rains that have caused flooding, interrupting railway and road traffic in some cases, uprooting trees and causing inconveniences, while authorities warn the population to be careful; it is also mentioned that there are heavy rainfalls in other areas along the Spanish Mediterranean coast. Notably shifting attention to Italy a landslide from the mountains for the third time in a month has made the Alemagna state road impassable in Cadore in Veneto region and in Tuscany thousands of lightning strikes have hit the coast with bad weather and cases of closed beach resorts, while in Molise there is talk of a fire that has ravaged the vegetation. According to weather forecasts the arrival of an African anticyclone will raise temperatures that had dropped for some time.
Unfavorable climate for students in the Philippines
Climate disasters threaten the learning of students in the Philippines and schools are poorly equipped to face them, at least according to a group of teachers who emphasize the lack of funding allocated for the twenty-seven million students who returned to school in June, a season considered the beginning for typhoons; but heatwaves forced schools to close in April and May. There is a call to invest in infrastructure that can make schools suitable to cope with heatwaves and storms, considering that the education sector is still dealing with damage caused by natural disasters. To report shifting the focus to Texas in the United States that has risen to over one hundred twenty the casualties and one hundred missing in the toll from recent floods, some say that the location of summer camps may not have been well planned.
For the second time a state of emergency has been declared in Manitoba also because it seems that Canadian authorities can more easily access shelters for the large number of displaced people this way. Three days ago, one million hectares of vegetation were reported to have gone up in smoke, and it is estimated that by 2025, the average will be much higher than the area usually lost to fires; meanwhile, some in the United States sometimes complained of poor air quality depending on the wind direction that carried fine particulate matter and soot to areas affected at great distances. To report shifting the attention to Italy the fires that have damaged vegetation in Metaponto in Basilicata region near a tourist village on the beach, resulting in evacuations, and in Castiglione della Pescaia in Tuscany region also in a tourist facility with damages and discomfort.
Usually intense heat is associated with an unpleasant feeling that causes a bit of discomfort, but some feel that it is something that can be much more insidious and even dangerous due to the body's attempt to keep temperatures under control and lower them. Every organ must face an unhealthy stressful condition (which can even lead to death), and the mind can become unclear leading to mistakes in judgment. Moreover it should be considered that during heat waves, people generally sleep less well and the accumulated fatigue poses a risk for example at work, while driving, and during inspections. Recently due to the severe heat wave affecting many European countries there is talk of a Mediterranean Sea that is overheated and no longer able to sufficiently lower temperatures in the winter months.
Considerations on the vegetation fire in Marseille
The fire fueled by strong gusts of wind and rather dry vegetation reached the city of Marseille in southern France, the second largest in the country, forcing the airport to close and many residents to remain home raises the question of whether the unusually high Mediterranean temperature might have played a role; indeed, recently sea temperatures have reached five degrees Celsius above average in some areas (with a record of twenty-seven degrees on June thirtieth), reducing the nighttime cooling effect along the coasts. Some are making additional considerations regarding the flooding in Texas that has caused over one hundred ten deaths and one hundred seventy missing, as other areas could find themselves in the same conditions still in the absence of alert systems to be used in case of necessity.
Unprecedented temperatures were recorded in June in twelve countries due to intense heat waves affecting nearly eight hundred million people in Europe, Asia, and Africa, from Nigeria to Japan, from Pakistan to Spain. In some countries temperatures are reported to be three degrees above the seasonal average, as occurred in Switzerland, Italy, and the Balkans; then in Korea two degrees above the seasonal average, but records for the month of June and extreme heat are also noted in China with record peaks (sometimes exceeding forty degrees) monitored by weather stations. Overall June ranks second for warming after 2024. It is currently worth noting a heat wave in Greece with temperature peaks of forty-two degrees Celsius, although weather forecasts predict sustained winds bringing somewhat cooler air in the coming days.
According to weather forecasts, flooding is possible in central and eastern areas of the state of North Carolina due to the tropical storm "Chantal" which has now weakened and been downgraded to a tropical depression, then there are also reports of possible isolated tornadoes in South Carolina; meanwhile the death toll from flooding in Texas has risen to over eighty with around ten people missing, devastated areas covered in debris, and there are controversies regarding cuts to the funding allocated to the national weather control center and the lack of a smartphone alert system for weather warnings in the affected counties (which have long been considered vulnerable). Notably shifting attention to Italy there is one victim in Lombardy region due to a wave of bad weather that has also caused damage and disruptions, and there are reports of over twenty-seven thousand lightning strikes in Tuscany region.
There are at least twenty-sven victims and about twenty missing (girls) due to a flooding caused by the Guadalupe river that affected an area in south-central Texas in the Kerr County where summer camps for children and teenagers have been set up as a tradition every year. Intense rainfall during the night raised the level of the Guadalupe river by eight meters in forty-five minutes; authorities sent rescue and missing persons search teams, but some complained about the lack of warnings (which should theoretically have been sent to smartphones alerting people to take cover due to the imminent danger). As regard the California a large fire is consuming the rather dry vegetation in San Luis Obispo County with evacuations occurring on State Route 166 which has been partially closed.
Among the causes of the high temperatures recorded on the Mediterranean coasts with values sometimes well above the averages the question is raised whether the marine heatwaves in the Mediterranean with monitored values in some areas of the sea reaching up to four degrees Celsius higher than the averages may have played a significant role. Climate variations affect all countries bordering the Mediterranean and some cite the example of Turkey recently facing hundreds of fires with casualties and damage and Greece still experiencing fires with evacuations and inconveniences, (then hundreds the victims for the heat in the South of Spain). The European Union proposes to reduce polluting emissions by ninety percent by 2040 to tackle climate change, but there are also discussions around various flexibility formulas to ensure that the countries of the union can achieve these goals.
There are said to be two victims in Spain due to a large fire burning vegetation in Catalonia, fueled by high temperatures, then in Greece there are reports of an uncontrolled fire in Lasithi (Achlia - Crete) with evacuation orders and people being rescued by boats, houses on fire and hotels threatened by flames, with smoke from the fires reaching long distances. Regarding the heat in Italy supported by an African high-pressure system that has been settled over Europe for some time instances of discomfort and heat strokes are multiplying, also leading to victims such as two on the beach in Sardinia and one in Liguria; a region in particular where temperatures in some areas exceed forty-one degrees Celsius and tropical nights above thirty degrees that not favor the body from fully recovering the physical and psychological energy.
Still difficulties in Italy due to the extreme heat
There would be at least three victims in Italy due to work-related ailments caused by the heat, with regions like Lazio and Sardinia banning work in fields and construction sites during the hottest hours. There are reports of increased access to emergency rooms by the elderly and in some cases, even deaths. In Veneto there was a landslide on the Alemagna road which had already experienced similar issues recently, then disruptions to train traffic on the Turin-Paris line due to landslides; complaints have also been made about temporary power outages in some areas possibly due to the heavy use of air conditioners. Shifting the attention to Canada to report a local state of emergency declared in British Columbia due to an uncontrolled fire near Lytton, and there are ongoing operations to clear fallen trees in a large park in northeast Ontario that was devastated ten days ago by a storm.
Due to the great heat accumulated from the intense heat wave, localized extreme phenomena have occurred, such as in Bardonecchia in Piedmont region where the Frejus river overflowed causing one death, then there have also been reports of heavy rainfall and gusts of wind, while there is a debate about the collapse of a large advertising sign on a futuristic skyscraper in Milan possibly due to the high temperatures of these days that have weakened the materials. It is worth noting shifting the attention to France that authorities have declared a red alert for Paris due to high temperatures leading to the closure of the upper levels of the Eiffel Tower, restrictions on polluting traffic and speed limitations for vehicles; meanwhile in Spain in Seville road signs are showing temperatures as high as forty-six degrees Celsius, causing significant discomfort for both the local population and tourists.
Numerous fire fronts are affecting the forests near Izmir, Denizli, Aydin, and Manisa in Turkey, with reports of ten residential areas evacuated, especially in the Seferihisar region where high flames are visible even from the Greek islands, with soot reaching, for example, Patmos. Some fires are uncontrollable due to strong winds despite the intervention of many firefighting teams supported by firefighting vehicles. As for Portugal due to the unprecedented heatwave affecting all of Europe temperatures have reached forty-two degrees Celsius in Lisbon and locations in the interior of the country are even approaching fifty degrees perceived. Extreme heat is also present in the Spanish city of Seville complicating matters for tourists, while the entire southern part of the country is grappling with oppressive heat.
Climate change is threatening school activities resulting in a serious economic and social risk, at least according to studies that also suggest that classrooms should not be warmer than twenty-six degrees Celsius; otherwise it becomes difficult to concentrate, thus hindering learning. In Africa school buildings have reportedly been constructed inspired by termite mounds that allow for natural ventilation, while building with clay and large protective overhangs helps absorb heat during the day to release it at night; in contrast, concrete and shiny coatings may look appealing but do not adequately insulate the building and force the use of air conditioners equipped with heat exchangers that overheat the entire surrounding environment.
By now the traditional image of the pirates organizes in groups from corsairs armed of guns and knives to the cingula have yielded the step to the new predator dressed in jacket and necktie that is annoying the web (bandits that unload entire site and they identify the protection keys, steal the symbols, musics..), even with one name of all security that hides the deceit to before the tacking of click. As an example writing "salutary.eu" on a famous search engine between the entrance connections to the site www.salutistico.it, others do not authorize links appear between which also one to those in order to unload freewares, but that practically they turn out to payment through Dialer. Attention to the pirates, exploratory of the web Internet, sails in sure waters; in fact the Demo of the program "Well-being Body - Mind - Soul" deposited that it enjoys all the copyrights can unload free from my salutary.eu Internet site or salutary.eu compiling the appropriate card of recording (and subsequently with relative password communicated) and I dissociate myself from the use of my software to payment for whichever site different from the mine. To notice unfortunately that also writing "salutistico.it" for the original site, are visualized links truculent or trap. - Lately is disappeared the intere site from some search engines.. (that evidently could use the same criteria of selection).
