In Mexico, at least 64 people are dead and dozens remain missing after tropical storms triggered severe flooding across five states. Authorities say some 100,000 homes have been affected.
In Alaska, Coast Guard and National Guard search-and-rescue crews have rescued dozens of people in coastal villages on the Bering Sea after the remnants of Typhoon Halong brought hurricane-force winds, storm surge and severe flooding to the region.
Meanwhile, on the U.S. East Coast, at least three people are dead as a slow-moving nor’easter brings coastal flooding, winds and heavy rain to mid-Atlantic and northeastern states for a fourth consecutive day. A recent study authored by University of Pennsylvania climate scientists, including Michael Mann, found human-driven climate change is making the strongest nor’easters even stronger.
