The World Cup begins tomorrow, and many will watch the matches. Soccer reminds us of something we must not forget: life is not a race to show off on our own, but a path we learn to walk together. Anyone who does not know how to pass the ball, even if they have talent, has not yet understood the game. Anyone who does not know how to live with and for others has not yet understood life. #ApostolicJourney

Reports of an explosion hears around Boston I believe are going to be a rather significant bolide/meteor entering the atmosphere. Very large "flash" detected by GOES-19 GLM that does not correlate with active thunderstorms. #MAwx

A rather interesting capture of a landspout tornado at night as two outflow boundaries collide NW of Lubbock, Texas, USA this evening. (23 May, 2026) Watch our live streams via: youtube.com/@DanielShawAU/ @NWSLubbock #txwx

Minnesota continues to burn: There is a new wildfire that has quickly grown to 600 acres in Crow Wing County. This is known as the Flanders Fire, near Flanders Lake, an area of numerous lake homes and small lake communities. The fire was reported to have jumped CR 11, possibly running into Crow Wing State Park. Aviation assets have been dropping on the fire and ground resources are on scene. Localized evacuations are ongoing. 📷 Nick Fairbanks 🙏

This is one of the wilder satellite animations I've seen in a minute... Wildfires produce their own thunderstorms while smoke wraps around a low pressure. What a fascinating view out of southern Kansas this evening.

Bob Jones senior Zac McGee’s goal in the final seconds of a second overtime period will send the Patriots to the Class 7A championship game. Hear from McGee after Bob Jones’ 3-2, 2OT win over Hewitt-Trussville:

After a straight red on a brilliant tactical foul by David Sandoval, JP Tarrer drops an absolute dime to Zac McGee who works his way past 2 defenders and finishes against the best keeper in the state with just 5 seconds left. Bob Jones-Hewitt-Trussville was fantastic…

Just when it looked like we were headed for PKs, Bob Jones catches Vestavia flat footed with a quick restart in the 2nd OT and get an absolute banger for the golden goal sending them to the Final Four…

The Enid, OK EF4 tornadic supercell had a ZDR column area of 70 square km (from our algorithm) ~1 km above the 0˚ C level just prior to tornado formation, consistent with the violent tornadoes from our 2021 paper and others we've looked at since (annotated in updated box plots).
