A Spire satellite orbits Earth, capturing critical weather and climate data from space.
@esa.int awarded Spire a contract through its Third Party Mission programme to supply satellite-based weather and climate data to researchers.
Learn how this partnership helps advance weather and climate science across Europe, with data including soil moisture & sea ice: spire.com/press-releas...
It’s peak season for heat domes and “corn sweat”—and the US impacts are real. From power grids to crop stress, here’s how extreme heat is unfolding across the central states, backed by forecast data and insights:

It’s not just the weather heating up; see what’s shaping global risk this month and how industries are adapting in our latest newsletter:
Tropical development or not, the atmosphere is primed for torrential rainfall impacts in Florida this holiday weekend:
Infrastructure is buckling under extreme heat. Here’s the latest on the heat waves gripping the US and Europe:
🌀 Tropical activity is simmering on both sides of the Americas.
• Gulf: Low chance of tropical development, high risk of flooding in Florida and the Gulf Coast
• Pacific: Strengthening #Flossie could bring 133+ mm (5”) rain and port disruptions to #Mexico

Intense heat in Europe will fuel wildfire concerns, stress crops, and tax power grids. ↴
In the West Pacific:
🔹 TD Sepat near Japan
🔹 TD Three near southern China
🔹 Long-range signs suggest a stronger typhoon could follow Sepat
The Atlantic finally stirred days after the June 20 average, with short-lived Tropical Storm Andrea brewing on June 24 before fizzling within 12 hours. Still, it's a reminder: the season is heating up.

A snapshot from our DeepVision™ risk management solution shows widespread heat advisories and extreme heat warnings plastered across the eastern half of the United States.
There won’t be relief at night either when heat stress builds. By 9 am ET Monday, the heat index was already in the upper 90s to 105ºF from Chicago to New York City and D.C.
Some Eastern cities may challenge all-time June record highs and the number of consecutive 100-degree days for June.
A snapshot of the Spire High-Resolution Forecast from our Cirrus data viewer shows where high temperatures will exceed 90ºF, dew point temperature values above 65ºF, and wind barbs.
A heat wave is affecting the eastern United States, pushing power grids to their limits and creating hazardous conditions for outdoor workers.
High temperatures are forecast to reach the upper 90s to above 100°F, with humidity pushing heat index values of 105°F-115°F.
High heat and severe weather, including risks such as 2" hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes, are bearing down on the central US power grid.
The Midwest is facing multi-day storms and heat indices of 110°F or higher, spiking demand and straining infrastructure.

A DeepVision™ platform snapshot shows the projected track for the newly developed tropical system along with the Spire Global forecast precipitation rate forecast (in m/s for 11 am local time/12 am EDT on June 12).
In the West Pacific, Tropical Depression 1W has formed ~500 km east of Da Nang, Vietnam.
Forecasts indicate strengthening into a tropical storm:
• Torrential rain is expected from central Vietnam to South China
• Gusty winds to near hurricane-force may hit South China

🌀 NOAA's 2025 Atlantic hurricane outlook is in:
• 60% chance of above-normal activity
• 13-19 named storms
• 6-10 hurricanes
• 3-5 major hurricanes (Cat 3+)
Warm Atlantic waters + weak wind shear = fuel for a busy season.

Check out some of the latest details on the severe weather risks targeting the mid-Mississippi and Ohio valleys today:
🌪️ A severe weather outbreak is unfolding from the Upper Midwest to the Ohio Valley.
🔹 Thursday: Tornadoes, hail >2.5”, and damaging winds are possible from Minnesota to Ohio
🔹 Friday: Focus shifts south—Missouri to Kentucky— with widespread winds and continued tornado and large hail threats
Colorado's snowpack is melting faster than usual, raising the stakes for wildfire risk and water supply. Early melt, dry soils, and low runoff projections could be a dangerous combination heading into the fire season. ↴
