In the past 12 hours, global weather alerts have surged to 2,205, up from 1,716, with hotspots emerging in Colombia and Kazakhstan, both facing severe fire and landslide warnings at maximum severity levels of 4. Colombia remains under critical conditions, particularly in areas experiencing heavy rain and landslide risks, while Kazakhstan is grappling with multiple hazards including extreme fire, fog, and wind alerts. A significant earthquake of magnitude 6.1 occurred 144 kilometers southeast of Hasaki, Japan, contributing to a total of 13 seismic events reported.
The Sahel region is now free of thunderstorms, but extreme heat persists, raising wildfire risks. Meanwhile, the Mediterranean region continues to face severe weather, with heavy rain and thunderstorm warnings in parts of Spain and Italy. In the Middle East, moderate rains are ongoing in southeastern Turkey, while temperatures are trending warmer in Saudi Arabia and the UAE. Alerts for high winds remain prevalent across various regions, including Scandinavia and the Pacific, as conditions evolve globally.
