As record high temperatures swept Alaska, many people said that the heat was killing them. For Kuskokwim salmon, it was actually true.

Subsistence families along the Kuskokwim River are cutting open fish to find white balls or white streaks deforming the meat.

"My family and I have been RV camping across Alaska for the last several years. This year, the mass amounts of dead spruce trees have been more apparent than any year prior."

On Wednesday, a new precipitation record was measured in Oslo with 22 millimeters in 10 minutes. "We had expected rain showers, but not that it would be so heavy," says state meteorologist.

Frigid north winds blow down from the Arctic Ocean, freeze saltwater and push sea ice south. The ice normally prevents waves from forming and locks onto beaches, walling off villages. But not this year.

The death toll from a storm that crashed into southeast Africa last month has risen above 1,000, with more than 4,000 cases of cholera reported among survivors in Mozambique, the hardest-hit country.

Warm air temperatures have melted the snow, leaving the soil without the insulation that snowcover usually provides.
