Earth's oceans rose just 0.03 inches in 2025, a fraction of the previous year's increase, thanks to a natural weather pattern that shifted water from sea to land. NASA scientists say the temporary slowdown shows how nature can sometimes pump the brakes on rising seas.
The UAE just gave its top weather scientist a ministerial role to fight climate chaos with artificial intelligence. Dr. Abdulla Al Mandous will deploy cutting-edge AI systems to protect the nation from increasingly wild weather patterns.
A new tool transforms weather data into moving animations that reveal how our planet breathes, showing temperature changes and pollution patterns as they happen across the globe. The daily maps help people see Earth's interconnected systems in action.
Fijian farmers are reading wild yam vines, bee behavior, and breadfruit patterns to predict hurricanes months in advance. Pacific island nations are now combining these traditional methods with modern forecasting to better protect remote communities from extreme weather.
More than 1,200 volunteer scientists are advancing weather and climate research through the American Meteorological Society, organizing conferences, reviewing groundbreaking research, and making critical weather predictions possible. These behind-the-scenes heroes are building the next generation of meteorologists while strengthening communities against extreme weather.
Spectators in French Guiana watched Europe's Ariane 6 rocket carry a next-generation weather satellite into orbit. The MTG-I2 satellite completes Europe's advanced weather monitoring system to better predict and prepare for severe weather events.
A rare weather pattern brought record heat followed by a cool snap, creating spectacular spring displays across England that are weeks ahead of schedule. Gardens are now bursting with tulips, wisteria, and magnolias in what experts are calling one of the most vibrant spring seasons in years.
For the first time, scientists tracked how weather changes across an alien world during a single transit, revealing a scorching gas giant with a 3,000-degree evening side and a possibly cloudy morning. The breakthrough technique opens a new way to understand distant planets as dynamic worlds with their own weather patterns.
The team behind beloved Dark Sky has returned with a new weather app that shows multiple possible forecasts at once, helping you understand when predictions are reliable. Instead of pretending weather forecasting is perfect, Acme Weather embraces uncertainty with transparency.
A startup launched by Stanford students is beating Europe's top weather agency at predictions using AI and 400 weather balloons. Their forecasts are now as accurate five days ahead as traditional models are just one day out.
Your weather app might say sunny, but you step outside to rain. A new network of 78 weather stations across Wisconsin is fixing that problem by measuring conditions right where you live.
A weather tech company just secured $175 million to launch satellites that will revolutionize how we predict storms and plan for the future. The new constellation will help everyone from farmers to delivery drivers make smarter decisions about weather.
Researchers discovered a new type of brain wave that rotates like a spiral, potentially coordinating how we sense the world and move our bodies. The breakthrough could unlock mysteries about memory, movement, and how different brain regions work together.
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope just delivered the first weather forecast for a distant exoplanet, revealing clouds made of vaporized rock that form overnight and disappear by morning. The breakthrough shows scientists can now track atmospheric patterns on worlds hundreds of light-years from Earth.
A Finnish designer created Current Rothko, a weather app that matches your local forecast to one of 89 abstract paintings by artist Mark Rothko. Instead of just showing temperature and rain chances, it tells you what the day actually feels like.
Scientists created a breakthrough method that tracks extreme weather events with unprecedented accuracy, giving communities worldwide the power to better prepare for heat waves, floods, and droughts. The tool is already helping researchers understand and adapt to climate challenges across every continent.
Ugandan farmers are getting timely weather forecasts from their government to help plan planting and reduce crop losses. The updates are already changing how farmers prepare for the critical March growing season.
Namibia's latest weather forecast brings both a challenge and an opportunity for compassion. Meteorologists are asking residents to prepare for seven days of rainfall by protecting not just their crops and livestock, but their beloved pets too.
NASA just greenlit a groundbreaking mission to understand how Earth's atmosphere interacts with space weather, protecting future astronauts heading to the moon and Mars. Two satellites launching in 2029 will solve mysteries scientists have puzzled over for decades.
