The atmosphere just hit a new water-vapour record: 27.35 kg of water vapour per m2 in August 2026, ~20 trillion litres more water than the previous record.
Warmer air holds ~7% more moisture per °C.
More water vapour means more energy to fuel extreme weather.

A significant crowd is outside the Kennedy Center for a “Hands Off the Arts” protest, as the nation’s memorial to former President John F. Kennedy remains closed.
Just today, another dozen Kennedy Center employees were laid off.
