Guest: Dr. Dillon AmayaThe Pacific Ocean covers nearly a third of our planet, and yet some of its most important changes happen far from shore and often out of sight. But whether it's a developing El Niño, a cooling La Niña, or an expansive marine heat wave, what happens in the Pacific can influence weather, ecosystems, and communities around the world. Today on Weather Geeks, we're joined by Dillon Amaya, whose research focuses on the complex relationship between the ocean and the atmosphere. We'll explore the growing scientific interest in Pacific marine heat waves, what we've learned from some of the most notable events in recent years, and how these episodes can ripple through both weather and climate systems.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Marine Heat Waves02:32 Dylan Amaya's Journey into Meteorology05:34 Understanding Marine Heat Waves08:48 Marine Heat Waves vs. Ocean Warming11:38 Impact of Marine Heat Waves on Weather13:37 Break 113:39 Marine Heat Waves and El Niño17:45 Causes and Effects of Marine Heat Waves20:54 Ocean Temperature Changes and Jet Stream Dynamics22:11 Marine Heat Waves and Climate Variability23:59 Ecosystem Impacts of Marine Heat Waves25:41 Coral Reefs and Marine Heat Waves27:17 Global Hot Spots for Marine Heat Waves28:05 Break 228:06 Understanding Atlantic Niña and Its Effects30:32 European Heat Waves and Ocean Anomalies31:37 Surprising Discoveries in Marine Heat Wave Research34:13 Climate Change and Ocean Temperature Trends36:22 Future Research Directions in Marine Heat Waves37:41 Machine Learning in Marine Heat Wave ForecastingResourcesNOAA PSL Marine Heat Waves Forecast System - https://psl.noaa.gov/marine-heatwaves/NOAA Ocean Temperature Monitoring - https://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/GODAS/El Nino and La Nina Explained - NOAA - https://oceantoday.noaa.gov/elninolanina/Marine Blob Tracker - NOAA - https://www.integratedecosystemassessment.noaa.gov/regions/california-current/california-current-marine-heatwave-tracker-blobtrackerScripps Institution of Oceanography - https://scripps.ucsd.edu/Guest linksLinkedIn - linkedin.com/in/dillon-j-amaya-2bb2a892Twitter - https://twitter.com/dillonamayaNorth Carolina State University - Dillon Amaya Profile - https://meas.sciences.ncsu.edu/people/djamaya/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
2628 - How did Nephilim repopulate the earth after the Flood? The bros travel to the Peloponnese peninsula in Southern Greece stopping at the sites of Tiryns, Megalopolis, and Mycenae spotlighting the continuing wars of giants and gods.
It's Wayback Wednesday, with another interview from our archive dating back to June, 2009. This week, it's our first interview with Dr. Judd Burton from 2009 about his book on the Nephilim, Interview With the Giant.First released November 22, 2009DESPITE NEAR-UNIVERSAL skepticism from mainstream science — and most Christians — Judd Burton, director of the Institute of Biblical Anthropology, believes that the giants of Genesis 6 are to be taken literally.In fact, he suggests in his new book Interview With the Giant: Ethnohistorical Notes on the Nephilim (www.lulu.com/content/paperback-book/interview-with-the-giant/7519958), that the Nephilim may have planted the roots of mankind's earliest known civilizations.We discussed the evidence for the existence of the Nephilim, both biblical and extrabiblical, their impact on the ancients, and their influence on the world today.Follow us!• X: @viewfrombunker (https://x.com/viewfrombunker) | @sharonkgilbert (https://x.com/sharonkgilbert) | @derekgilbert (https://x.com/derekgilbert)• Telegram: t.me/gilberthouse• Substack: gilberthouse.substack.com | sharonkgibert.substack.com• YouTube: @GilbertHouse (https://youtube.com/@gilberthouse) | @UnravelingRevelation (https://youtube.com/@unravelingrevelation)• Facebook.com/viewfromthebunker

AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma reports officials say some tourists previously thought missing in Nepal have made contact with authorities.
Crucial warnings that Wellington's Moa Point could catastrophically flood were missed, according to an Independent Crown Review into the February disaster. 14 billion litres of raw sewage has since spewed into the sea off the city's South Coast as a result of the plant failure. The review, released today, points to systemic failures in leadership by the city council, Wellington Water and plant operator Veolia as contributing to the meltdown. Reporter Ellen O'Dwyer spoke to Melissa Chan-Green.
In this episode of the International Risk Podcast, host Dominic Bowen is joined by Kirtan Pandit, conservation researcher and co-founder of GeoSutra, an environmental intelligence company whose team deployed drones within 24 hours of the catastrophic Nepal flood to carry out rapid damage assessments in Nuwakot district. Kirtan shares a firsthand account of the disaster response, drawing on his work using drones to assess and deliver aid to flood affected communities, and explains why this event, and Nepal's growing exposure to glacial hazards, must be understood as a climate risk issue with global implications.We discuss:What triggered the flood, and how a glacier collapse near the Nepal-China border unleashed one of the deadliest disasters in Nepal's modern historyHow GeoSutra's team accessed the affected area and used drones to assess damage and deliver aid across a river with no remaining crossingsThe scale of destruction to critical infrastructure, including roads, bridges, the Rasuwagadhi border crossing and hydropower stationsThe ongoing search for workers trapped in a hydropower tunnel and the mounting challenge of managing the deadWhy the flood is directly linked to climate change and global warming's effect on Himalayan glaciersThe limitations of Nepal's current early warning systems and what stronger, climate resilient infrastructure would requireWhy Nepal and other low emitting mountainous nations are demanding climate finance and loss and damage funding as grants rather than loansWhat this disaster reveals about the growing risk facing mountain communities across the Himalayas and beyondThe International Risk Podcast brings you conversations with global experts, frontline practitioners and senior decision makers who are shaping how we understand and respond to international risk.

Joey Linn went from covering NBA stars for Sports Illustrated to buying and remotely managing his first short-term rental in Michigan City, Indiana. The original motivation? A growing business had created a significant tax problem, and Joey saw short-term rental real estate as an opportunity to combine potential tax benefits with an appreciating, cash-flowing asset. But his first deal quickly became a real-world education in real estate investing. In this episode, Joey joins Thomas Castelli, CPA, and Nate Sosa to explain why he invested in the Midwest instead of Southern California, how he bought his first property without seeing it in person, and how he built a local team to manage the property remotely. Plus, Joey shares his journey from sports media to entrepreneurship, how AI is changing the sports-writing business, and what could be next for his real estate portfolio.

A catastrophic glacial collapse high on the Tibetan Plateau triggered a lethal deluge of mud, ice, and mountain debris through the river valleys bordering Tibet and Nepal. With over 800 confirmed deaths and thousands still missing across the transboundary region, search and rescue teams are battling deep silt, damaged infrastructure, and subterranean hazards to reach survivors. In this video, we break down the critical rescue operations—from trapped hydroelectric tunnel workers to emergency international aid—and examine how climate change is accelerating cryosphere destabilization worldwide. We also look at how shifting global weather patterns are driving extreme hydrological shocks across diverse ecosystems, including recent flash flooding and mudslides along Bright Angel Creek in the Grand Canyon. #Tibet #Nepal #GlacialCollapse #ClimateChange #FlashFloods #GrandCanyon #NaturalDisaster #Himalayas Independent media has never been more important.

CO2 Hot Gas Defrost Causing Flood back & The Happiest Place In The World & He's still Angry Episode 535 VideoRusty Cases, Wet Racks & Hot Gas Defrost Chaos (CO₂ Rack Tuning Gone Wild)Hosts Brett Wetzel and Kevin Compass recap a hectic week on the Advanced Refrigeration Podcast, starting with widespread issues from a case manufacturer in Mexico where components arrive severely rusted or even full of water, leading to leaks, missing rack parts, long evacuation times, and concerns that contractors will rush vacuums.They also describe multiple failing case controllers that output erratic signals and drop communication.The conversation shifts to Brett's work in Vermont teaching and troubleshooting a ZeroZone CO₂ rack hot gas defrost setup, including inlet pressure regulator and relief protection, and how an incorrectly set regulator caused flash tank turbulence, flash gas bypass over-opening, low medium-temp superheat, oil carryover, and compressor issues—especially with horizontal “laydown” flash tanks.They discuss PID tuning challenges, valve reliability, and an oil dump line piping detail that can vent oil straight out of the receiver.

Show DescriptionWhen a disaster begins high in the mountains, its consequences can reach communities far downstream before people understand what is coming.In this episode of the Emergency Management Network podcast, we examine Nepal's devastating August 26 flash flood and debris flow, the unfolding humanitarian emergency, and the operational challenges facing responders. Preliminary USGS findings describe a rapid slope failure involving a glacier that sent destructive debris and floodwaters nearly 100 kilometers downstream. USGSAmid the destruction, a last-minute warning helped a school leader evacuate more than 900 students—a powerful starting point for discussing warning systems, decision authority, and protective action. ReutersWe explore the immediate response priorities, the consequences of damaged infrastructure, and the responsibilities that continue long after the initial flood. For emergency management professionals, this episode asks: What does this disaster reveal about our own readiness, and what should we do with those lessons?Show NotesBriefing Script — Situation as of August 31, 2026Nepal is confronting a major flash-flood and debris-flow disaster along its northern border with Tibet. The event began on August 26, when a rapid slope failure involving a glacier in Langtang National Park likely sent rock, mud, ice, and water into the Lende Khola and Trishuli river systems. The destructive flow traveled nearly 100 kilometers downstream. The precise initiating mechanism remains preliminary and requires continued scientific assessment. USGSThe humanitarian consequences are severe. According to the cited reporting, Nepalese authorities have reported more than 900 deaths, over 4,200 people missing—including hundreds of foreign nationals—and more than 10,000 rescues. The Nepal Red Cross estimates that more than 90,000 people have been affected. These figures are provisional; access constraints, debris burial, displacement, and disrupted communications complicate accountability. NBC NewsThis is a compound mountain disaster, with flooding, debris movement, isolation, and infrastructure failures creating overlapping response challenges. Buildings and a vital highway connecting Nepal and China have reportedly been buried or destroyed. USGS Reports also indicate that hundreds of workers may be trapped or unaccounted for at damaged hydropower projects in Rasuwa and Nuwakot. Associated PressSo What? Now What for the Emergency Management Professional?The following priorities frame our operational discussion:* Sustain lifesaving operations. Support search and rescue, missing-person accounting, and family reunification, particularly in isolated valleys and at damaged hydropower sites.* Restore safe access. Assess and establish ground and air access to communities isolated by road and bridge failures, while accounting for responder safety and changing conditions.* Meet immediate humanitarian needs. Coordinate emergency shelter, safe water, food, trauma care, and continuity of essential health services.* Rebuild situational awareness. Restore communications and conduct rapid damage, needs, and infrastructure assessments.* Monitor secondary hazards. Maintain downstream monitoring and public warning while assessing unstable slopes, river blockages, rainfall, and glacial hazards.* Plan for sustained displacement and recovery. Incorporate education, protection, psychosocial support, and safer reconstruction into early recovery discussions.According to the cited UN report, the United Nations has released an initial $2 million in emergency funding, while WHO has deployed emergency health supplies sufficient to support basic health services for up to 10,000 people. UNICEF reports that at least 17,000 children have been affected, facing risks associated with disease, malnutrition, disrupted education, violence, and exploitation. UN NewsNepal's emergency requires simultaneous attention to immediate life safety and prolonged needs involving access, shelter, health, infrastructure, and recovery. Our discussion considers how government-led coordination, local capacity, and international support can address those demands while continuing to monitor cascading hazards.Lifesaving Warnings: The School EvacuationReuters reports that a last-minute warning helped save more than 900 students at Tribhuvan Trishuli Secondary School. We use that account to examine the connection between receiving information and initiating protective action. ReutersDiscussion questions include:* Who can authorize an immediate evacuation without waiting for additional approval?* Can warnings reach schools through multiple, trusted communication channels?* Do evacuation plans address arriving buses, accessible transportation, accountability, and family reunification?* How do local emergency managers receive information about threats originating upstream or across borders?* How can recovery decisions reduce exposure to future disasters?Additional ReadingNPR: Nepal floods, climate change, and the HimalayasInformation reflects reporting available as of August 31, 2026.

More than two-thousand-four-hundred people remain missing after last-week's flash floods in Nepal and Tibet including over 40 Australians.
Started the week off with that horrifying flood in Tibet/Nepal, and then talked about the crazy Russia drones with no human operators. Also Pakistan nursery fire disaster, CIA head visits Moscow, King of Denmark dies, Dolly Parton RIP, Florida Shake Shack employee serves woman her burger with his genitals hanging out on the tray.
Rescuers in Nepal are drilling and digging through debris as fast as they can. Hundreds of workers are believed to be trapped inside tunnels at five hydro power sites. The number of people killed in last week's flash floods along the border with Tibet has risen to nearly 800, and thousands are still unaccounted for.Also: The trade war looms large over three federal byelections being held on Monday. Seats are up for grabs in Ontario, B.C. and what's shaping up to be a tight, three way race in Quebec.And: A new space telescope launched from Florida today. It's being hailed as a giant leap forward in how we search for life beyond our planet. NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope will look for cosmic mysteries such as dark matter but also for Earthlike planets that could harbour life. And its relying on some Canadian designed technology to do the job.Plus: Alberta day celebrations amid separation debate, A disapearing island in B.C., Quebec seniors practicing karate, and more.

And a federal judge is weighing whether President Trump can put his name on the Kennedy Center, where the board wants a sign up within two weeks calling it restored by Trump, even though a court already ruled that renaming the memorial takes an act of Congress.Want more analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun?
