Well see how the drama unfolds. Its time now to get a check of the weather with meteorologist robert speta. Robert, good morning. A powerful cyclonic storm is impacting yemen. You talked about this yesterday. The situation seems quite serious. Whats the latest . Yes, this is a very serious storm system, and already a deadly storm system. Actually, on the island of sokatra, part of yemen to the southeast. At least three casualties have been reported out of here after that storm blew by here on your monday. And it just pushed that outer eye wall right over the head of the island. Now this is coming on shore just towards the southwest of al mukalla, and this is going to be devastating mainly because of the rainfall. Very rare to have a cyclone make landfall this far west there, the gulf of aden. Definitely, this is a rare satellite picture. Wind speeds right now 157 Kilometers Per Hour sustained, but really, the Biggest Issue with this is going to be the rain. I actually want to show you this graphic. This is the annual rain totals across this area here. And you will typically see for the entire year about 50 to 100 millimeters of total precipitation along these coastal areas. And also, i do want to mention, this is very mountainous. Its flat near the immediate coast, but then you have mountains a little farther inland, and that is going to be squeezing out this moisture. So, in some areas, you could see two to three years of rainfall over the next 24 hours. Already, theres been reports of upwards of 200 millimeters of precipitation already occurring. So, this is definitely going to be an ongoing story. And i do hope that everyone out ahead of this has made proper preparations. But i do want to also mention, just to exasperate the situation, this area of the world, theres lots of conflicts going on. Already humanitarian aid is in this area helping out with that, and this is just going to be exasperating that situation. Winds right now are expected gusts up to 220 Kilometers Per Hour. I also want to mention high waves. This is a very busy traffic area for world commerce, going through the gulf of aden heading towards the red sea here, and youre going to be seeing about 9meterhigh waves. So, also another very severe impact coming out of this storm system. Definitely going to keep you updated on this over the coming days with that rainfall thats going to continue to come down. Talking about flooding rains also, we havent seen severe flooding over in the southeastern u. S. , specifically around georgia into the carolinas, also some strong storms here into the Florida Panhandle with a tornado reported out of here and also tornado watches still in effect back there towards the northeast. Thats eventually going to taper off and pull farther eastwards, though. Back towards the west, warmer weather setting into the central plains, but i want to mention this dip in the jet stream with areas of low pressure coming in, into the western u. S. That has brought some of the first snowfall for a lot of you out here, and this is some photos out of reno, nevada. Take a look at that. Typically, when you think of reno, youre thinking of desert, but this in some of the Higher Elevations around the city. You had some widespread traffic accidents, a lot of people still trying to remember how to drive in the snowfall here. You typically see that with some of the first snow events of the season. And still some more of the white stuff is going to be coming down, some additional 40 to 45 centimeters of snow accumulation with this in a lot of the Higher Elevations. But i want to note, as i mentioned, look at the warmer temperatures, about ten degrees above average. Here into eastern asia, things are drying up quite significantly in northeast asia. High pressure is dominating. Unfortunately, that is making for some stagnant air, so you do want to watch out for the air pollution there in northeastern china.
