"2024 Tornadoes: Record-Breaking and Deadly Spring"

The U.S. has experienced an unusually high number of tornadoes this spring, with at least 850 confirmed so far, making it one of the busiest years in recent history. Meteorologists attribute the increase to an active jet stream and warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico, influenced by a diminishing El Niño. The tornadoes have caused significant damage and fatalities, particularly in mobile homes, but have mostly spared densely populated areas. The role of climate change in this increased activity is still being studied.

"NOAA Predicts Warm Spring 2024 Across Entire US"

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) predicts a warm and damp spring for much of the U.S., with above-average temperatures expected in all 50 states. The greatest chances for above-average temperatures are in the Great Lakes region, the Pacific Northwest, and northwest Alaska, while rainfall is expected to be above-average in the Southeast. The overall threat of significant flooding is low, but minor flooding is possible in the southeastern quadrant of the country. Drought conditions are likely to improve in the southeastern U.S., but persist or expand in portions of the Rocky Mountains and the Great Plains. The El Niño climate pattern is expected to continue impacting weather into the spring, with a potential transition to La Niña by early summer, which could boost the number of hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean.

Apple Set to Revamp Mac Peripherals with USB-C in Spring 2024

Apple is rumored to be planning a refresh for its Mac peripherals with USB-C charging ports in spring 2024, according to a rumor from the Instant Digital account on Weibo. This comes after the lack of USB-C updates for Mac peripherals during Apple's October event. It is speculated that Apple may overhaul its Mac accessories alongside the expected iPad and Mac updates in March 2024. Until then, it is advised to hold off on purchasing new Magic Keyboard, Magic Mouse, or Magic Trackpad devices if you prefer USB-C charging.
