Covid-19 cases are already rising in Europe, a trend that has preceded waves of infection in the US in the past.

The key question: Just how deadly will Covid-19 be this winter? vox.com/science-and-he…
What’s changed in the past two years is that far more people have been vaccinated and exposed to Covid-19 by now, which means most people now have some degree of protection, which lowers the likelihood of dying from it. But that’s not enough to absorb another wave of misery. Image
The virus itself is continuing to change in ways that make it easier to spread and harder to counter. And while most US adults have received at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine, only a tiny fraction are up to date on their boosters. vox.com/science-and-he…

Hurricane Ian is expected to have a "catastrophic" storm surge.

Storm surge occurs when a hurricane’s winds raise ocean water levels and sweep them inland, leading to flooding. This is often the deadliest part of a hurricane. In this aerial view, flooded homes are shown after Hurricane
Ian is also projected to drench parts of Florida, even further inland, with as much as 25 inches of rainfall. Floodwaters could linger for days.

In some parts of Florida, like Tampa, Ian pulled water away from the ocean shores, an effect called a reverse storm surge. A first responder with Orange County Fire Rescue makes her wSisters walk along the shore of a receded Tampa Bay as water
The devastation from extreme weather events are getting worse because of climate change.

Rising average temperatures are lifting sea levels and increasing the amount of rainfall from major rainfall events, adding up to more destructive storm surges. vox.com/science-and-he…

The Supreme Court’s Republican-appointed supermajority seems poised to deal a blow to the Clean Water Act, in a case that could do harm to America’s efforts to prevent floods and to ensure that everyone in the country has access to safe drinking water. vox.com/policy-and-pol…
The Clean Water Act prohibits “discharge of pollutants” into “navigable waters.” But it also defines the term “navigable waters” vaguely and counterintuitively, to include all “waters of the US, including the territorial seas.” vox.com/policy-and-pol…
In Rapanos v. United States (2006), the Supreme Court’s last attempt to define the key phrase “waters of the United States,” the justices split three ways, with no one approach winning majority approval from the Court. vox.com/policy-and-pol…

Public schools are fully reopened and most pandemic-era restrictions are now relaxed. But working conditions for families with kids who need child care are not back to normal. vox.com/policy-and-pol…
For workers and parents, already-grim trends in child care have only gotten worse since the pandemic began. Program costs have increased, while waiting lists in several states number in the tens of thousands. vox.com/policy-and-pol…
Despite the long wait lists, nearly 90,000 fewer people are working in the child care industry today compared to February 2020. vox.com/policy-and-pol…

This term, a potentially even more consequential issue than abortion rights is on the Supreme Court’s docket: democracy itself. @imillhiser explains: vox.com/policy-and-pol…
A single case, Moore v. Harper, threatens to fundamentally rewrite the rules governing federal elections, potentially giving state legislatures (some of which are highly gerrymandered themselves) nearly limitless power to skew those elections. vox.com/policy-and-pol…
A second case in the Court’s new term — which officially begins on Monday, October 3 — also places free and fair elections in the US in grave peril. vox.com/policy-and-pol…
