On July 26, the NHC started tracking a tropical wave with the potential for development into a tropical cyclone.^[105] As it moved westward, the NHC noted that the tropical wave was becoming well-defined,^[106] designating it Potential Tropical Cyclone Four on August 2.^[107] That night, the system developed a closed circulation just off the southern coast of Cuba, causing the NHC to upgrade it into a tropical depression.^[38] Tropical Depression Four entered the Gulf of Mexico where it further intensified into Tropical Storm Debby later on August 3.^[39]
Due to flooding threats posed by Debby, Governor Ron DeSantis placed 54 counties in Florida under a state of emergency on August 1.^[108]In addition, Governor Brain Kemp declared a state of emergency in Georgia ahead of Debby. ^[109]

[Saturday] TD4 to Strengthen Before Landfall in Northern Florida
DJ "Debby" is highly unpredictable...https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/storminfo/ or https://www.tropicaltidbits.com/storminfo/ ...

-If "Debby" stays over hot water longer it will get stronger...cat1...
-In recent history we did see lots of surprises...storms getting major hurricanes within a day...
-So very likely "Debby" will hit Florida more north...still within 24-36 hours...
-Then a lot of models indicate "Debby" weakening-moving towards the Atlantic-there regaining strength...(but it may bring lots of rain and a storm surge for northern Florida for days...)
-Later on the coming week "Debby" could make another landfall on the US Atlantic coast...

Unpredictable-crazy-weather is a new normal...A lot of economic damage may come from people/bussinesses trying to prepare for extreme weather...Some models suggest even Debby could move south after "touching" Florida...

Arctic 21: Antarctica might raise sea levels more than we thought 
DJ from the https://iccinet.org/ or https://iccinet.org/ 

Another source https://truthout.org/articles/antarctica-in-2nd-extreme-heat-wave-in-3-years-temps-50f-higher-than-normal/ or https://truthout.org/articles/antarctica-in-2nd-extreme-heat-wave-in-3-years-temps-50f-higher-than-normal/ 

DJ-Extreme weather, storms, may bring very warm weather+ melt over areas supposed to stay very cold...A warmer Antarctica may see an increase of both seismic and volcanic activity speeding up melt/sea level rise even more...

I would love to believe landice flowing into the ocean could "cool" the oceans...https://arctic-news.blogspot.com/2024/08/high-feels-like-temperature-forecast.html or https://arctic-news.blogspot.com/2024/08/high-feels-like-temperature-forecast.html ;

The February 2024 temperature was 1.76°C above 1885-1915, which could be as much as 2.75°C above the pre-industrial temperature. A 2.75°C rise corresponds with almost ⅕ more water vapor in the atmosphere.

DJ, Very likely land-ice moving high speed into oceans will see high speed melt and an even faster sealevel rise...
