California wildfire causing hazy skies in San Diego; extreme heat warning later this week
SAN DIEGO (FOX 5/KUSI) — Parts of eastern San Diego County and Imperial County will be under an extreme heat warning later this week, while wildfires burning in central California brought some cloud coverage to San Diego over the weekend. Satellite and radar showed smoke traveling south from the Gifford Fire burning in San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties that mixed with coastal cirrus clouds moving east from the Pacific Ocean to create hazy conditions across San Diego County on Sunday, according to the National Weather Service. Much of San Diego County remained at a normal to moderate air quality Sunday, reports, meaning those unusually sensitive to air pollutants could be impacted and are urged to reduce time outdoors. Heat Risk/Extreme Heat Warning Portions of Southwest Arizona and Southeast and Southern California will be under an extreme heat warning from 10 a.m. Wednesday to 8 p.m. Friday, the National Weather Service reports. The heat will peak Wednesday into Thursday, with temperatures expected to reach 106 to 118 degrees in those areas. The National Weather Service forecasts Ramona has a 65% chance temperatures could reach over 100 degrees on Thursday. When in an area under an extreme heat warning, the National Weather Service advises to limit time spent outdoors, drink plenty of water, wear lightweight and loose-fitting clothing and to keep an eye out for signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Public cooling centers are available in San Diego County for anyone needing a safe place to stay while extreme heat warnings are in place. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

In Southwest Michigan, erosion is taking away beaches, backyards more and more every year
In Southwest Michigan along the Lake Michigan shoreline, full- and part-time residents are losing more of their backyards every year — and the changing climate and weather patterns are making the problem worse. Those residents are now taking action to try to prevent the erosion. On average, Southwest Michigan loses more than a foot of shoreline every year. But one specific area lost 75 feet in four years. A steep drop, and some broken beach access stairs stuck in the sand, are signs of a beach that no one can access anymore. John Yellich, the retired former head of the Michigan Geological Survey, is behind the first research done on erosion in Southwest Michigan in almost a decade. He fought for the research and funding he fought because of the significant erosion issues tracked in the area. "What we wanted to do is to be able to study areas, and what was causing those changes," Yellich said. "Put a sand pile on the beach, and it's fine. Pour water on it with a cup, and all of a sudden, it disappears." Coastal erosion is behind about $500 million a year in property loss in the United States, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Residents, such as Victoria Turbov and John Barkley, have been witnessing the land loss firsthand. They started speaking up. "As a Navy pilot, I'm used to panic, but I panicked. So there were some days here where we lost several feet. We saw the boardwalk collapse into the lake. We saw part of our drain system collapse into the lake," said Barkley. "People bought homes there based on their ability to have lake access from their homes, and once the bluff started to erode, they lost that access." The research into erosion along Lake Michigan brought together Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, and Michigan geologists and geography experts. The research focuses on Mount Pleasant in Allegan County, and Miami Park in South Haven, Michigan. Images from their published research dating back to 2017 document the land loss. "The [Army] Corps of Engineers would say that we could expect erosion at a rate of one foot per year, so we were expecting a creeping one foot," said Barkley. "But what we learned is it goes in spurts, so that over time it might be an average of one foot, but over the last three years — from maybe 2020 to 2022 or 2023 — we lost about 75 feet." Turbov has summered along the Lake Michigan shoreline in Southwest Michigan since she was two years old. She has had a front row seat to changes for more than 70 years. "This is very precious to us, because we don't want this bluff to collapse," she said. Now, thanks to the work proving erosion is worsening, Turbov's 100-year-old neighborhood is doing work to bolster itself. "It's a fight to keep the water off the cliff," she said. Turbov led the work in his own neighborhood about half a mile down the road. "It used to be a vertical drop, but once we sculpted it, then we were able to vegetate it with deep-rooted plantings," said Barkley. Planting those specific types of plants used in those deep-rooted plantings, implementing water management systems, making changes to their irrigation system, and reinforcing the beach with rocks are all solutions to an erosion problem with a connection to our changing climate. "It's gotten worse because of the climate, and we are just more aware. This was not on people's radars 20 years ago," said Turbov. "Now we're coming to see, as most people are, we need to protect this place and other places and, you know, our environment in general." As we track warming global temperatures, rising sea levels, and lake levels for the matter, experts say our coastlines and shorelines are paying the price. "But the whole bottom line is that, yes, these are dramatic changes, not slow," said Yellich. "Major rainfalls, major droughts, and sometimes, of course, when you get the drought and a lot of rain, it doesn't soak in, so it runs off." While the EPA has tracked the cost of the problem, local and national EPA offices confirmed they are not doing any work targeting erosion right now. And Yellich emphasized that when it comes to erosion, the problem is not going to go away. "It's just something that isn't going to change, and it's going to continue to happen," he said. But in Southwest Michigan, experts and residents say doing nothing is not an option — with all the beautiful landscapes that are eroding away already serving as a warning. "I'm saying that this is an example of what catastrophic things can happen if you don't do the right things," Yellich said. City and Township officials in the area that is the focus on this story didn't respond to requests related to this story.

Most popular meteor shower, ‘sturgeon' moon to peak over Kansas. When to look
A full 'sturgeon' moon will peak soon over Kansas, and residents can also enjoy the peak of a popular meteor shower soon after. This month's moon is referred to as the 'sturgeon moon' because of the abundance of fish typically found in late summer, according to the Farmers' Almanac. Many moon names come from Indigenous cultures. The Farmers' Almanac uses Indigenous moon names, along with monikers from colonial America and other North American sources. In addition to the sturgeon moon, August will bring the peak of the Perseid meteor shower, which the American Meteor Society describes as 'the most popular meteor shower' of the year. The Perseids will peak overnight Tuesday, Aug. 12 into Wednesday, Aug. 13, the American Meteor Society reports. The Perseid meteor shower has been active since July 14 and will end Monday, Sept. 1. The waning gibbous moon is expected to reduce the shower's visibility this year, so you might only be able to see the Perseid's brightest meteors. Here's when to see this year's sturgeon moon over Kansas, plus when to catch more full moons in 2025. When will the sturgeon moon peak? The sturgeon moon will peak at 2:55 a.m. Central Daylight Time Saturday, Aug. 9, according to the Farmers' Almanac. AccuWeather's forecast says the night of Aug. 9 will be 'mainly clear' in Wichita, with a low temperature of 73 degrees Fahrenheit. The moon generally appears full the day before and after its peak illumination. For those planning to stargaze the night of Friday, Aug. 8, you can expect partly cloudy skies, AccuWeather reports, and the night of Sunday, Aug. 10 will be partly cloudy with a couple of thunderstorms. The moon will rise in Wichita at 9 p.m. Aug. 9, according to online clock Time and Date. When to see more full moons in 2025 After the sturgeon moon, stargazers will have four more opportunities to see a full moon this year. Here's when to look, from Sunday, Sept. 7: Corn moon Monday, Oct. 6: Hunter's moon (supermoon) Wednesday, Nov. 5: Beaver moon (supermoon) Thursday, Dec. 4: Cold moon (supermoon) The Kansas Astronomical Observers, which has now merged with Lake Afton Public Observatory, meet at 7:30 p.m. the third Saturday of each month from May through September. Meetings from October to April are held at 3 p.m. the third Saturday. Visitors are welcome; there is a fee to enter the observatory. Solve the daily Crossword
