Happy Autumnal Equinox! Today marks the first day of astronomical Fall, and is one of two days a year when the Earth's axis is tilted neither toward nor away from the sun, resulting in a "nearly" equal amount of daylight and darkness at all latitudes. The word equinox is derived from two Latin words - aequus (equal) and nox (night). 🍁🍂

Tropical Weather Outlook
200 PM EDT Mon Jun 15 2026

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of America:

Northwestern Gulf of America:
A trough of low pressure located over northeastern Mexico is producing a large area of disorganized showers and thunderstorms. Development is not expected during the next day or so while the trough remains inland. However, the system could re-emerge over the northwestern Gulf of America late Tuesday or Wednesday, and environmental conditions there are marginally conducive for the
formation of a short-lived tropical storm on Wednesday into Thursday.

Regardless of tropical cyclone formation, interests across southern and eastern Texas and portions of Louisiana and Mississippi should prepare for periods of intense rainfall over the next several days, which could produce widespread, life-threatening flash, urban, and river flooding. Gusty winds and coastal flooding are also possible along portions of the northwestern Gulf Coast, and Tropical Storm
Watches or Warnings could be required on Tuesday. Additional information on this system can be found in the products issued by your local National Weather Service Forecast Office or NHC Key Messages.

* Formation chance through 48 hours...medium...40 percent.
* Formation chance through 7 days...medium...50 percent.

Residents of (Barrow) Utqiagvik, Alaska just started a day that will last more than 2,000 hours. NOAA’s GOES West (GOES-18) satellite captured the beginning of this annual “midnight sun” season yesterday—during which the sun will rise and fall over the city, but never drop below its horizon.
