Finally Hurricane Helene. Rainy weather set the stage for the historic flood in eastern parts of Tennessee, with record crests on several streams & rivers. A long road to recovery is now underway & our hearts are with all affected. TN Climate Office story: tinyurl.com/3mm9zcx3

Drought conditions were ameliorated in the southeastern US by Helene. Drought area reduced from ~54% to 20% in less than a week. We have analyzed the role of TCs in modulating drought variations in the trop. Americas here: researchsquare.com/article/r…

Nearly 8 percent of the global land area experienced extreme drought in 2023—a new record. Drought and heat waves contributed to massive wildfires around the globe, including in Canada, Australia, and Greece. #StateoftheClimate2023 More highlights: climate.gov/sotc2023

It was indeed a dry period (especially the summer of 1887) in France and parts of Europe, according to the Old World Drought Atlas. Source: drought.memphis.edu/OWDA/ Publication: science.org/doi/10.1126/scia…
Fun fact! 🌊 'Starry Night over the Rhône', painted during the dry summer of 1888, reveals Van Gogh’s attention to detail. A letter sketch he made of the subject depicts more sand than water. In the painting, he probably wanted to show more of the reflections of the lanterns.
