A National Hurricane Center update states that the storm intensified overnight, gaining maximum sustained winds of 115 mph, which makes it a category 3 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale.

Fasten your seatbelts folks. Why is turbulence increasing? Rougher skies may be from climate change, scientists begin to cry out.
Prepare for the possibility of more shake, rattle, and roll with bumping on your next flight, a study by scientists at the University of Reading in the United Kingdom.
LAHAINA: PARADISE LOST
Most of Lahaina is reportedly destroyed by a wildfire amid dry and windy conditions. As of the middle of August, at least 93 people had been confirmed dead with 1,000+ missing. At least 11,000 people were forced to evacuate.
GOP CLIMATE DENIERS

While the world witnesses climate change, the GOP's new curriculum minimizes teaching about the dangers of global warming and scientific information.
This disinformation goes back to Richard M. Nixon at a 1966 campaign stump meeting. Generations later, the Republicans continue to institutionalize willful ignorance teaching children to hate windmills and love fossil fuels.
当世界目睹气候变化时，共和党的新课程最大限度地减少了有关全球变暖危险和科学信息的教学。 这种虚假信息可以追溯到理查德·M·尼克松 (Richard M. Nixon) 和 1966 年的一次竞选巡回会议。几代人之后，共和党继续将故意无知制度化，教导孩子们讨厌风车而热爱化石燃料。
DISASTER IN PARADISE

A dangerous and deadly combination of conditions caused the raging wildfires to engulf the island of Maui. Over a hundred died.
For too long, Americans have been lied to by Republican deniers about the severity and developing dangers of climate change. Still, we now see and feel deaths mounting and the increasing toll of property destruction.
As an American citizen who has traveled to Hawaii, it saddens me to see that island state destruction due to science denial GOP propaganda.
PLANET SIZZLE
Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns since the 1800s, human activities have been the main driver.
It’s about time #WeThePeople do something about the burning of fossil fuels which produces heat-trapping gases.
Earth reaches hottest day recorded a few days in a row
As greenhouse gas emissions blanket the Earth, they trap the sun’s heat. This leads to global warming and climate change. The world is now warming faster than at any point in recorded history.
ORANGE PLANET

Mars is called the red planet, named for the Roman god of war, and has long been an omen appearing throughout the night sky.
That planet’s rusty red surface tells a story of destruction. Billions of years ago, the fourth planet from the sun could have been mistaken for Earth’s smaller twin, with liquid water on its surface and perhaps life.
