Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 16:12:02 GMT

AUCKLAND, New Zealand (AP) — In the words of Vietnam’s coach, facing the U.S. national team in the Women’s World Cup is a daunting quest, something “like a mountain,” said Mai Duc Chung.Vietnam makes its World Cup debut Saturday against the United States, the heavy favorites to win the tournament for an unprecedented third time. The Americans enter Saturday’s game in Auckland at Eden Park with the same confidence it carried through its last two World Cup-winning runs.“The U.S. is a very, very strong team. It is like a mountain. But it doesn’t mean that we will give up,” said Mai.But few believe Vietnam has a chance. The national team is very similar to Thailand, which the Americans thumped 13-0 in the opener at the World Cup four years ago in France. The United States went on to beat the Netherlands 2-0 for its second consecutive World Cup and fourth overall, the most of any nation.“Fear? We Believe,” said captain Nuynh Nhu. “We’ve already prepared. Not...

2024 will probably be hotter than this year because of El Niño, NASA scientists say

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 16:12:02 GMT

(CNN) — As millions bake under a relentless heat wave in the South and Southwest US – and as temperatures soar around the Northern Hemisphere – NASA scientists warned Thursday that we haven’t even seen the worst of El Niño and next year will likely be even warmer for the planet.Climate change, caused by burning fossil fuels, is unequivocally warming the Earth’s temperature, NASA scientists said.And El Niño, the natural climate pattern in the tropical Pacific that brings warmer-than-average sea-surface temperatures and influences weather, has only just started in recent months and therefore is not having a huge impact yet on the extreme heat people around the globe are experiencing this summer, said Gavin Schmidt, a climatologist and director of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies.“It’s really only just emerged, and so what we’re seeing is not really due to that El Niño,” Schmidt told reporters. “What we’re seeing is the overall warmth pretty much everywhere – particularly i...

Late Storms, Solid Weekend

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 16:12:02 GMT

After a beauty of a summer’s afternoon yesterday, we start the morning off comfortable with temps in the 60s. Dew points start to sneak back up this morning and will be higher this afternoon. The higher humidity will fuel scattered storms this afternoon too, mainly across central and western Massachusetts. Across Western New England, a few of the storms will be strong to severe. A lower risk of severe weather exists across Central Mass, with severe weather not expected across far eastern Mass. In fact, across eastern Mass, the shower/storm threat is low until a few move in late-day/evening. That system drags across southern New England tonight, tries to push most of the instability east of us by Saturday. Although a spot shower/storm can’t be ruled out Saturday, the bulk of the day should turn out to be dry with temps in the low to mid 80s. Sunday looks gorgeous, with highs in the mid 80s, lower humidity and mostly sunny skies. Copy and paste that into Monday.Next week overal...

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian cruise missiles, flying low and hugging the terrain to dodge Ukrainian air defenses, destroyed farm storage buildings in the Odesa region early Friday, Ukrainian officials said, as the Kremlin’s forces expanded their targets following three days of bombardment of the region’s Black Sea port infrastructure.Hours later, seven Russian missiles also damaged what officials described as an “important infrastructure facility” southwest of the port city of Odesa, in what appeared to be part of an ongoing Kremlin effort to cripple Ukraine’s Black Sea food exports. Officials did not immediately provide details of that attack.During the night, two missiles struck the agricultural storage facility, starting a fire, and while workers fought to put it out another missile hit, destroying farm and firefighting equipment, the southern Odesa region’s Gov.
