And now there's officially a Tornado Warning out for Santa Cruz County for this offshore mini-supercell thunderstorm, which is likely producing a waterspout over water that could move inland as a tornado near Santa Cruz. #CAwx

AFP’s Josh Edelson photographs vehicles navigating roadways flooded with ocean water during a “King Tide” event in Mill Valley, California. "King Tides" occur when the Earth, moon, and sun align to produce unusually high water levels, cause tidal flooding and give a glimpse into what things could look like with rising sea levels in the future

@US_Stormwatch Burbank to Santa Rosa today, 11/28/25 at about 12pm. Thought it looked a little abnormal.

Today marks Day 8 of nonstop Tule Fog across California’s Central Valley, and it may be at its greatest extent yet. A sea of fog stretches from Lake Shasta all the way down to the Grapevine, nearly 450 miles long and has now spilled into the Bay Area.

Absolutely insane photo!

@AJamesMcCarthy Amazing!

The moment of the jump, captured in hydrogen alpha light to resolve the sun’s atmosphere. We decided to release the photo in print- both as an up close shot and showing the full disc of the sun, which you can see here: cosmicbackground.io/pages/ea_the-f…

Immense planning and technical precision was required for this absolutely preposterous (but real) view: I captured my friend @BlackGryph0n transiting the sun during a skydive. This might be the first photo of it's kind in existence. See a video of this moment in the reply 👇

@YayAreaNews Bullshit! I went tonight and this is what it looked like:

Man, when it rains, it pours! Honored to have won this! afp.com/en/agency/insi…

HORRIBLE: WORST CASE scenario is unfolding. Really, I am near a loss of words. "Last chance to protect your life at all costs" is the words from the NHC. Melissa is about to make landfall at its strongest intensity. A humanitarian disaster is about to unfold. The hurricane hunters detected 252 MPH gusts 300 feet off the ocean surface. 185 MPH max sustained winds and 220+ MPH gusts in the eyewall about to obliterate Black River area.

A wind gust of 252 mph was just measured above the surface in Hurricane Melissa as the storm continues to intensify right up until landfall. This is the worst-case scenario for Jamaica.

BREAKING: The strongest wind gust EVER recorded in a hurricane has been recorded by specialist aircraft in Hurricane Melissa: 241mph.

📸 Photographer @JoshEdelson has spent 10 years capturing the raw reality of #wildfires, from the heart of California's infernos to the front lines of the climate crisis. He talks on @Artsf24 about his haunting images, showcased at the @Visapourlimage photojournalism festival ⤵️

I’m so overwhelmed and proud and emotional and impressed with this unbelievably amazing exhibit of my work at @Visapourlimage I feel like I’m in a dream that I desperately don’t want to wake up from. Thank you @AFP for entering my work and thank you Visa for this exhibition!

This looks AMAZING! Cant wait to see it in person! @Visapourlimage
