Senate Prepares Trump Megabill, House Plans $9.4B Spending Cuts

As June begins, weather forecasts indicate a transition from cooler early-month temperatures to warmer conditions by month’s end, with the Southwest and Rocky Mountains likely experiencing the most heat. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predicts an overall warmer-than-average summer, with extreme heat expected in Western, Northeastern, and Southern states. This warming trend raises health concerns, especially for vulnerable populations such as the very young, elderly, and those with chronic illnesses, as noted by experts from George Washington University. In Iowa, climatologist Dr. Justin Glisan highlights the need for timely rains to support crops amid warmer temperatures and ongoing drought conditions affecting nearly half the state. Despite the uncertain precipitation forecast, the demand for moisture remains critical as the growing season progresses. These patterns reflect broader climate change impacts, emphasizing the importance of preparation and mitigation strategies for health and agriculture.
