Aguaceros arrastrados por el brisote húmedo
Humedad y una vaguada en los niveles superiores de la atmósfera se acercarán a la isla que aumentarán gradualmente las posibilidades de lluvias vespertinas entre el lunes y el martes. También llegarán aguaceros ocasionales desde el mar a la costa este. El calor excesivo estará presente a principios de esta semana a medida que aumente la humedad y se debiliten los vientos. Los índices de calor podrían superar los 108 grados en el norte donde estarán vigentes Advertencias de Calor. Las condiciones marinas están mejorando a medida que se calman los mares a 4 pies o menos y los vientos a 5-10 nudos.

What you need to know, currently.
On Saturday, one of the largest global anti-war rallies of the 21st century took place in dozens of cities around the world, with some 300,000 people estimated at the march in Washington, DC.
More than 10,000 civilians have died so far in the Israel-Palestine conflict. Climate justice campaigners marched in solidarity calling for a ceasefire, and drew clear parallels with what’s happening in Gaza to what’s happening all over the world where marginalized people are being forced to bear the brunt of climate chaos.
As environmental justice communities hailing from sacrifice zones across the United States, we are answering the call to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people on the frontlines of genocidal warfare. #CJAOurPower

Climate change is a struggle for freedom and dignity of all living things, on a global scale.
The roots of the climate emergency are a systematic, racist devaluation of Black and Brown lives to justify first-world greed and white supremacy. There can be no climate justice without Palestinian liberation and without the liberation of oppressed peoples around the world.
