U.S. and EU Reach Trade Deal, Tariff Rate Halved; Extreme Heat to Affect 130 Million Americans | NTD Good Morning (July 28)The Trump administration is holding talks with the UK and China on Monday after announcing a deal with the EU over the weekend. The agreement comes just days before the U.S. tariffs were due to spike. The EU deal cuts the proposed tariffs in half, and will bring hundreds of billions of dollars in European investment to the United States. President Donald Trump announced the deal from his resort in Scotland, calling it “good news for everybody.”More than 130 million people are under heat alerts as dangerous temperatures grip much of the country. Tampa has hit 100 degrees for the first time in recorded history, with heat indexes expected to top 110 through the week. Meanwhile, severe storms are expected across the Northern Plains, with damaging winds and the possibility of tornadoes.Cambodia and Thailand have agreed to a cease-fire starting at midnight on Monday local time, pausing five days of their deadliest clashes in over a decade. The breakthrough came during peace talks in Malaysia after President Trump pressured both sides over the weekend. Both Thailand and Cambodia accuse the other of starting the fighting last week. The conflict soon escalated to clashes with heavy artillery at multiple locations along their 500-mile land border.

A heat advisory is in effect until Wednesday night. A combination of high temperatures and humidity could cause it to feel like temperatures are in the high nineties.

Here is a table of contents summarizing the weather podcast, focusing on extreme weather events and conditions globally, with a special emphasis on heatwaves and high dew points, and ending with the songs that played in the background. Chapter 1: Introduction and Extreme Heat in the Persian Gulf (00:08) The podcast begins by highlighting extreme weather conditions, particularly the phenomenal dew points and wet bulb temperatures in the Persian Gulf, where dew points reach the upper 80s and wet bulb temperatures are expected to hit 90 degrees, potentially reaching the upper limits of human tolerance. Temperatures in Iran's Great Salt Desert are forecasted to soar, with surface temperatures possibly exceeding the official record due to a lack of weather stations. Shuster, Iran, is mentioned as a city where temperatures frequently reach the 130s, although official records may not reflect this due to the distance of the nearest weather station. Chapter 2: Heat Dome in the US and High Dew Points (03:19) The discussion shifts to a strengthening heat dome in the US Midwest and East Coast, with forecasts indicating it will intensify over the next two weeks. High dew points are noted not only in the Persian Gulf but also in the United States, especially around the Gulf of Mexico and the Midwest corn belt, creating swamp-like conditions. The air originates from the Gulf of Mexico, traveling over a thousand miles, and the corn belt enhances the humidity levels. Chapter 3: Extreme Heat in Dubai and the Caspian Sea (04:28) The podcast revisits the United Arab Emirates, focusing on Dubai, where temperatures remain consistently in the mid-90s, driven by high dew points leading to heat indices approaching 130. The conversation then turns to the Caspian Sea in Russia, where unusually high ocean water temperatures, similar to those in the Gulf of Mexico, lead to very humid conditions. The possibility of weather phenomena similar to Tornado Alley in the US occurring near the Caspian Sea is speculated due to the presence of both humid and dry air masses. Chapter 4: Global Weather Observations and the Lack of Hurricanes in July (08:43) The podcast notes intense warmth in the Arctic regions of northern Canada and Alaska, with temperatures expected to reach the 80s. Intense heat is also observed on the West Coast of the US, particularly on the eastern side of the Cascades. The lack of hurricanes in July, despite warm ocean temperatures, is attributed to the plume of Sahara dust that interferes with hurricane development. Chapter 5: Heat Advisories and Closing Remarks (10:54) Heat advisories are in effect across the northern states of the Midwest, with a large area of excessive heat warnings covering much of the Midwest and South Central states. The heat dome is expected to center over the mid-Atlantic area later in the week, bringing super hot weather. The podcast concludes with encouragement to stay healthy and hydrated.Chapter 6: Songs Played During the Podcast (12:30) The podcast concludes by identifying the songs played in the background, including "Journey through the Desert" by Trace Way, and several Blue Dot Sessions tracks such as "Skyway", "Borrow", "Molly Molly" and "Glass Beads", ending with a track listed as "L I T E 20, saturation 25".Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/weather-with-enthusiasm--4911017/support.
