of the year, Hudson's Bay, or excuse me, Hudson's Bay, Hudson's Bay, Sistora, Hudson Bay is the bay that looks like an ultimate bull in sort of the central, just the eastern central part of Canada. And Churchill's a community that's sitting on the western shores of northern Manitoba. And Churchill is famous for their polar bears at this time of the year. They also have a number of huge hydroelectric installations, just like northern Quebec does. But Churchill, they see some wild temperature swings, depending on the direction that the wind's blowing. If the wind is, if it's an offshore flow, they'll get, they can easily get temperatures into the high 20s, low 30s, you know, approaching 90 or more degrees Fahrenheit. And inversely, you know, the next day, if the winds swing around and they're coming onshore from the waters that constitute Hudson Bay, they can be down in the single digits in summer. So they have this whiplash phenomenon all year long, but I like to look at those temperatures. Okay, I just thought that I would put that out there, since most people don't think about these places. I sort of do think about them throughout the year. And I usually look at these places because this is when you'll start to see winter. The good news is there's no signs of winter right now. So we'll just put that thought aside, at least in the northern hemisphere. If you're in the south, sorry about it, it's very cold. Okay, really quickly, we'll talk about the tropics right now. A lot going on, very busy. A number of systems, Croeso, which is a severe tropical storm that's moving off out into the North Pacific, that's moving away from Tokyo and Japan. It brought some unsettled weather earlier in the week. And we also have 13 West, which is a tropical storm, that's moving in the same direction, out and away from the island of Japan. Shanghai dealing, and some other places, Yen-Cheng dealing with Koh-Mei, which is now Remnant Lo. That came in earlier last week as a fairly strong system off of the Yellow Sea. And beyond that, there's a Iona, which is a tropical depression that's sort of meandering north into the Pacific, not really threatening anyone. And once we get closer to Mexico, we have Tropical Storm Gill, which is moving away. It's moving towards the Hawaiian Islands, but it's gonna dissipate before it gets there. And a couple areas that the National Hurricane Center is watching for development. There's investigation 90 East, and there's another one which is disturbance two, which is sort of just south of Acapulco. Again, both of these development regions are gonna be moving away from Mexico, so not a threat to the continent at this point in time, but just watching it for development. Let me drop it.
