NOAA/NCEI Climate at a Glance, contiguous United States. This is the observed record for the month, not a score of anything said in this piece — the forecast ledger begins 2026-08-17 and cannot reach earlier posts.

Quick update on 2 tropical cyclones in the Southern Hemisphere:

Garance (22S) has moved over La Reunion at 90-knots intensity after encountering strong southerly shear. Fortunately, the wind shear disrupted the inner-core somewhat, so hopefully news out of the island will be less catastrophic.
