Tsunami advisory expires along California coast south of Santa Barbara County, National Weather Service says
Both the Los Angeles and San Diego field offices for the NWS confirmed that advisories expired across the entirety of the coast in Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties. As of 6:20 a.m., advisories were still in place from the southern border of Santa Barbara County and the Humboldt and Del Norte County line.
The advisories were issued after a massive 8.8 magnitude earthquake struck near the Kamchatka Peninsula in eastern Russia around 4:30 p.m. Pacific. From then on, the entire West Coast of the U.S. was placed on a tsunami watch, later upgraded to an advisory.
The advisory was also lifted in Hawaii, but not before large portions of the state were subject to evacuation orders. No major damages have been reported yet.

Smoke starting to clear out of Minnesota as clouds move in
Wildfire smoke will continue to exit Minnesota on Sunday, helping air quality improve as we wrap up the weekend. Some air quality alerts may be allowed to expire early Sunday, as levels have improved to the yellow category overnight. Clouds pick up a little more across the state, keeping high temps into the upper 70s in the afternoon. With some energy aloft, a few showers are falling across western Minnesota, but they will struggle to move east, so the metro largely stays dry Sunday. Humidity will increase into the middle/end of the week, helping to turn the forecast a bit more active with several waves of energy sparking daily storm chances. Spotty showers are anticipated Monday and Tuesday, mainly for western Minnesota. Temps warm through the week and reach the upper 80s by Thursday or Friday.

Temperatures to top out in low to mid-90s with round of storms possible across North Texas
Sunday, a few rounds of storms will be expected due to a shortwave, northwesterly flow aloft, and a plethora of moisture in the atmosphere. A complex moving from Oklahoma to the southeast is expected to impact North Texas by late Sunday morning. The complex is forecasted to lose its strength over the next few hours. The Storm Prediction Center has just issued a marginal risk, level 1 out of 5, for the threat of isolated severe thunderstorms. A level 2 out of 5 is in effect for West Texas. The main concern will include the potential of hail and damaging winds. Highs on Sunday will be in the lower to mid-90s with winds from the southeast around 5 to 10 mph. Sunday night, a few more storms will be likely. This could impact those going to the Loud for Love benefit concert. Thankfully, the concert will be in a covered facility, but the walk to and from the venue may be rainy. Doors open at 5 p.m., and at that time, temperatures will be around 92 degrees with a heat index value of 97. Temperatures will continue to drop into the lower 80s through the evening. Overnight, another complex will move into North Texas from Oklahoma. Monday morning commute may be impacted due to heavy rain. The rain will dissipate by Monday afternoon. The typical dry and hot August forecast is back this next week. A ridge of high pressure will build over the next several days, allowing temperatures to once again reach near the triple digits. A decent amount of moisture is forecasted to linger, making the feels-like value to reach anywhere from 100 to 107 degrees Wednesday through Friday. Stay hydrated.
