Whoa! Along with the record noted by @bmcnoldy.bsky.social below, this is Miami's longest string of days with coastal flooding reaching at least moderate levels (now seven days and counting). More here: yaleclimateconnections.org/2026/10/reco...

Absolutely incredible: Tuesday morning's high tide in #Miami exceeded the major flood threshold... that is the 1st time it has ever happened in the city's history without a hurricane storm surge. It tied (within 0.1 inches) the storm tides produced by Irene on Oct 15, 1999 and Wilma on Oct 24, 2005.

Astonishing! During this morning's king tide, Miami crossed the threshold for "Major" flooding without a hurricane for the first time. This was the city's highest water level in 11 years, and 3rd-highest since 1994. Yellow highlights: 8 of 14 top spots are from king tides during the past 2 years.

Los Angeles and San Diego had their highest coastal water levels in over a century of records during high tide today. (San Diego's record was a tie, but there was a glitch that prevented the peak from being recorded). Top-10 marks from 2026 highlighted are in yellow. @edwardsanthonyb.bsky.social

In a little-noticed webpage update, the Environmental Protection Agency has announced a plan to decommission its online web archive at the end of the year, a move that would wipe tens of thousands of publicly available environmental resources from the web.

I discussed the new U.N. report on breaching the 1.5C dangerous global warming limit (and the unhelpful green-lighting of new North Sea gas drilling project by U.K. Prime Minster Andy Burnham) earlier this evening with #BBCNews:

I have one word to describe Super Typhoon #Champi ( #29W ): Wow. Not only has it rebounded rapidly after its second eyewall replacement, but it has regained Cat 5 intensity with winds of 155 kts. It still has time to strengthen more before the environment becomes less favorable.

After #Champi's excruciatingly close call w/Guam, the storm seemed to get even more potent. And in fact, JTWC has retroactively upgraded it to Cat 5. Odds favor Champi hitting that mark again this week. Full scoop from @drjeffmasters.bsky.social and me: yaleclimateconnections.org/2026/10/supe...

Here it is: My big October update on the now near-record/record-strength El Niño event and the still-increasing likelihood of significant California impacts this winter. This deep-dive post is meant to accompany my Tuesday 1pm PT livestream.

In fact, as of mid-October, the 2026 El Niño event has already become the strongest on record #

Update: Now Post-Tropical Storm Rachel has made landfall along northern Baja CA north of Ensenada. San Diego is thus spared brunt, but bands of torrential rainfall & severe thunderstorms are occurring from CA's Imperial Valley eastward into AZ, w/serious flash flood threat. #CAwx
