A tropical storm that prompted flight and ferry cancellations in Taiwan is forecast to reach typhoon strength before hitting the southern China coast on Sunday.

The storm earlier crossed the Philippines, where a parked truck was crushed by a billboard-like structure that was toppled by high winds in Quezon City, north of Manila.

Wipha had maximum sustained winds of 101 kph (63 mph) and gusts up to 126 kph (78 mph) as it passed south of Taiwan on Saturday, the island's Central News Agency said.

More than 20 centimeters (8 inches) of rain was recorded in Hualien and Taitung counties on Taiwan's east coast, the news agency said. Several domestic flights were canceled and service on 14 ferry routes was suspended because of rough seas and strong winds.

 

Days of record-breaking heat across large swathes of China pushed power demand to an all-time high in excess of 1.5 billion kilowatts on Wednesday (Jul 16), energy officials said, with temperatures forecast to feel like 50 degrees Celsius in some areas on Thursday.

An arc of sweltering heat stretching from the densely populated city of Chongqing in the southwest to Guangzhou on the coast has enveloped an area home to over 200 million people in recent days.

A subtropical high pressure system, which causes warm and dry weather, drove temperatures at eight weather stations in the northwest and southwest of China to record highs in the last two days, state media said on Thursday, citing national weather authorities.

"The power system is holding up so far," said Chim Lee, a senior energy and climate change specialist at the Economist Intelligence Unit.

 
  • A yellow weather warning for thunderstorms has been issued across large parts of the UK, including London, the Midlands, and the North East and West of England, from Friday evening until Saturday.
  • The Met Office predicts torrential rain, with potential for 20-30mm in less than an hour and up to 90mm in three hours in some areas, which could cause travel disruption and flooding.
  • This follows a period of high temperatures, with London forecast to reach 30C on Friday, and the incoming heat is described as more humid.
  • Several water companies, including Southern Water, South East Water, and Thames Water, are implementing hosepipe bans across various regions of England.
  • These restrictions are in response to exceptionally dry weather, with England experiencing its driest start to the year since 1976, and drought status declared in the East and West Midlands.
 

At least three people were killed and more than 1,000 evacuated Thursday after South Korea was hit by torrential rains, officials said, with one region pummeled by the most rainfall per hour since full records began.

South Korea typically experiences monsoon rains in July, but three areas in the country's South Chungcheong province this week saw some of the heaviest hourly downpours on record, official weather data showed.

Three people were killed Thursday, the Ministry of Interior and Safety said, all in South Chuncheong province.

 

One person died and 13 others were injured, including eight children, after being struck by lightning on Wednesday in New Jersey, officials said.

The strike hit the ground near a group at the Black Knight Bowbenders archery range, a well-known community site that regularly hosts events, Jackson Township Mayor Michael Reina told ABC News' New York station, WABC.

This was the twelfth lightning fatality this year.

A severe thunderstorm warning was issued for the area Wednesday evening.

Much of northwest and central New Jersey was also under flood watches through Wednesday night, with storms expected to produce heavy downpours following a deadly deluge earlier this week.

 

Slow-moving thunderstorms packed with heavy rain and strong winds triggered dangerous flash flooding in parts of the Tri-State area Monday evening, swallowing roadways, parking lots and subway stations.

The storms prompted New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy to declare a state of emergency, "given flash flooding and high levels of rainfall in parts of the state."

He's urging residents to stay indoors and avoid unnecessary travel.

 

Heavy rain and strong winds have lashed parts of New Zealand as a cold front moved east across the country, and authorities warn conditions could worsen over the next 24 hours, triggering floods and landslides.

The northern regions of both the South Island and North Island of the country could be severely affected by the wild weather, the country's weather bureau said on Friday.

New Zealand's MetService said the wind would pick up from Friday afternoon, with gusts of up to 120km/h forecast for some regions. There could be severe thunderstorms later on Friday, MetService's Heather Keats said.

Tokyo was hit by a torrential downpour Thursday evening during rush hour, with the Meteorological Agency warning residents to prepare for heavy rain, flooding and lightning.

The agency recorded 120 millimeters of rain in Suginami Ward and about 100 mm in Setagaya Ward at around 7 p.m. — enough to cause disasters. The agency only announces warnings of this kind when there is enough rain in a short period of time to trigger landslides or flooding.

The weather agency is forecasting up to 150 mm of rain in the 24 hours through 6 p.m. Friday in the Kanto region, which includes Tokyo, and 100 mm for the Koshin region of Yamanashi and Nagano prefectures.

The Tokyo Fire Department received a call that a vehicle driving into a flooded underpass in Tokyo’s Shibuya Ward was stalled, NHK reported, adding that first responders are trying to rescue people possibly trapped in the car.

No injuries were reported after an intense night of stormy weather unfolded in central Alberta on Wednesday night, but once the storms passed, one couple was left with a strange video of something bright and shiny a few hundred metres from their home that they could not make sense of.

Global News showed the video to Frank Florian, senior manager of planetarium and space sciences at the TELUS World of Science in Edmonton.

He described it as “an incredible video” of something “very strange associated with severe weather conditions.”

Florian said the events are believed to unfold when there is plasma — a superheated gas — confined to a small area.

“Lightning itself is a plasma,” he said. “You have an electrical path going through the sky from the cloud to the Earth, kind of meet up in the middle and it superheats the air really, really quickly, and it creates a plasma

 

The latest hot spell is not expected to be quite as warm, but is forecast to last longer and cover a broader area.

It will be the third heatwave in four weeks after two weekends of hot conditions for much of the country in the final weeks of June, which was the hottest on record across England.

The Met Office is predicting many areas could see temperatures 10C above the seasonal average.

 

Western Europe sweltered through its hottest June on record last month, as "extreme" temperatures blasted the region in punishing back-to-back heatwaves, the EU climate monitor Copernicus said Wednesday.

Globally, this past June was the third warmest on record, continuing a blistering heat streak in recent years as the planet warms as a result of humanity's emissions of greenhouse gases.

The previous hottest June was in 2024 and the second hottest was in 2023, the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) said.

Sweltering extremes were particularly pronounced in Europe, which is warming several times faster than the global average.

 

A man and two children were killed in a record-breaking flash flood that swept through a village in New Mexico on Tuesday, local officials said.

The three were "swept downstream by the unprecedented floodwaters that struck" the Village of Ruidoso, village officials said in a statement.

The National Weather Service in Albuquerque said early data placed the river's crest at 20.24 feet on Tuesday afternoon, which would break the record of 15.86 feet that was set on July 20, 2024.

Like others said, female pov porn video is rare.

This might not be what you're looking for, in hentai / pornhwa universe there is a lot of josei (toon for adult female readers) toon porn. As a male I also read it too, for some reasons they are much better compare to seinen (toon for adult male readers) toon porn.

I never understood why the US Govt/CIA tried to interfere in the election?

If they're worried about China - Indonesia relations, they should try to get rid Luhut and his cronies in Golkar.

The current defense minister (Prabowo) agreed to buy F-15s from murica, yeah I know he's not a good candidate. But there's another candidate not perfect but at least he's more neutral

And there's a good comment from the website, while it's not entirely correct

John :

Has the author done any research on the political candidates? Prabowo is the former son-in-law of Suharto and served as a high-ranking military officer who had a direct role in planning the invasion of Timor Leste. He also held a leading position during the 1998 demonstrations where university students were kidnapped, tortured and murdered. He is a graduate of Fort Bening.... you know... the camp where military officers around the world are taught torture methods. He has advocated for returning to Indonesia's 1945 constitution, the one used by the Suharto dictatorship. He was the go-to man for the US government to invade Indonesia. He has never acknowledged any of his human rights abuses. He ran against Joko Widodo in 2014 and 2019 and lost both times. All of this is not mentioned in the article. We only see and read that the US is concerned about Prabowo and maybe wants Anies to win.

While I appreciate the detail this article goes into about the leaked documents, I think there is some important context missing. For example: why does the US appear antagonistic towards Prabowo now? Why did President Joko Widodo appoint Prabowo as his minister of defense in his second term, and then endorse him (as well as his own party's nominee, Ganjar) for president in the upcoming 2024 election? Like imagine Obama in 2013, just a couple months after winning the election appointing Mitt Romney as his secretary of Defense and then endorsing both Hillary Clinton and Mitt Romney for president. What changed? Has Jokowi's influence rubbed off on Prabowo so much that he has decided to drop his long-standing alliance with the US or is he taking a different route to try to return to the US-alligned military dictatorship, or is there something else happening? Why does the US seem to support Anies? Do the documents indicate the US's stance towards Ganjar, the nominee in Jokowi's party? I think these issues should be addressed in the article, but I understand that it may have been cut short for length.

The information from these documents is very alarming. I hope Mintpress does more coverage on this topic, especially with the election being so soon. You are doing important work.
