/[ Train derailed in Texas windstorm -(not that rare) and mammatus 
clouds (quite rare) ]/
*04-23-2024 Trent, TX - Train Derailed in Severe Thunderstorm Winds*
Live Storms Media
Mammatus clouds form when cold, sinking air pockets push the cloud base, 
causing it to bulge and create distinctive pouch-like shapes. They often 
appear during or after thunderstorms, and while they look menacing, 
they’re mostly harmless. Scientists still don’t fully understand how 
they form, but their formation may result from the interaction between 
updrafts and downdrafts within a storm.

        Just how strong must the wind blow to derail a train?
        /         ChatGPT/
        The wind speed required to derail a train depends on several
        factors, including the train's size, weight, speed, and the
        direction and consistency of the wind. Generally, strong winds
        can potentially affect train operations and safety, but the
        exact threshold for derailment varies depending on these factors.

        In general, sustained winds of around 55-65 miles per hour
        (88-105 kilometers per hour) are considered capable of causing
        significant disruptions to train operations. Wind speeds in this
        range can lead to problems such as blowing debris onto tracks,
        causing objects to hit trains, or affecting the stability of
        lightweight or empty railcars.

        However, for a train to be derailed solely due to wind, much
        higher wind speeds are typically necessary. It's challenging to
        provide a specific threshold because it depends on various
        factors such as the train's profile, its load distribution, the
        condition of the tracks, and the presence of any protective
        barriers or windbreaks along the route.

        In extreme cases, such as tornadoes or severe thunderstorms with
        exceptionally high winds, the risk of train derailment due to
        wind increases significantly. Wind speeds exceeding 100 miles
        per hour (160 kilometers per hour) can pose a serious threat to
        train stability and infrastructure integrity, potentially
        leading to derailments, especially if combined with other
        factors such as debris or structural damage.

/[ Reuters calls Asia most vulnerable ]/
*Asia is most climate disaster-impacted region, UN meteorological agency 
says*
By Reuters
April 22, 2024
GENEVA, April 23 (Reuters) - Asia was the world's most disaster-hit 
region by climate related hazards last year, the World Meteorological 
Organization (WMO) said, with floods and storms causing the highest 
number of casualties.
In a report published on Tuesday, WMO said that 79 disasters linked to 
hydro-meteorological events had been reported in Asia in 2023. More than 
80% of these were related to floods and storms that caused more than 
2,000 deaths.

Asia is warming faster than the global average, according to WMO. Last 
year, high average temperatures were recorded from western Siberia to 
central Asia, as well as from eastern China to Japan.

/[ From the UK: stunning, colorful, somber parade of the XR - lots of red ]/
*Live: Funeral for Nature | Extinction Rebellion UK*

Streamed live on Apr 20, 2024  #ExtinctionRebellion #ActNow #RebelForLife
A dramatic street theatre performance is happening in Bath to mark the 
devastating decline of the natural world in the lead up to Earth Day on 
22 April, an annual event which engages up to a billion people around 
the world each year.

The Funeral for Nature procession includes 400 Red Rebels dressed in 
their distinctive red outfits and hundreds of mourners in black. They 
being a by drummers playing a single funeral beat as they make their way 
through the city’s historic streets, culminating in a dramatic finale in 
front of the Abbey. This will be the largest global assembly of Red 
Rebels ever seen, 400 in total. This is five times more than ever 
before, with people travelling from all over the UK and joined by groups 
from Europe.
