Storm timeline: When will the heavy rain, mountain snow hit SoCal?
(ABC7) March 11, 2025: Another storm in Southern California will soak the region, bringing mountain snow and heavy rain to the region, with strong winds and flooding, particularly in the burn scars of the Eaton and Sunset Fires in Altadena and Hollywood but not sparing sunny Orange County and the Airport Fire burn scar. The Palisades Fire may wash more debris into the sea, further polluting Santa Monica Bay. Snow at the beginning of spring and freezing temps as the city prepares for St. Patrick's Day? What climate change and chaos is afoot? Legend has it that when there is fire, there are earthquakes so Angelenos can "shake and bake," with mudslides following every hillside fire, wearing away at the city, capital of the world, as it falls into the Pacific. Mt. Baldy is covered in snow with foothills dusted, easily melting in the sunshine of clear days. Meteorologist Dallas Raines explains, and KTLA 5 provides in-depth coverage. Torrential rains, atmospheric river, El Nino and La Nina threatening, waterspouts, a tornado in Pico Rivera, thunder, graupel, hail, the weather devas are having a field day.

(RealLifeLore) A large portion of the country of Mexico, or the United Mexican States as it's really named, is little populated, whereas most of its population of 128 million is squeezed into a tight band at the center. Why? And why has it been like this for so long? In looking into it, we find out a lot about the USA, too.

Smoke haze obscures building under construction, Singapore March 2014 (Tim Wimborne)
Singapore braces for worst smoke "haze" as Indonesia slashes-and-burns forests Singapore is approaching its yearly "haze" [dense air pollution] season, when smoke from forest clearing in Indonesia chokes the air, with this year likely to be worse than 2013's record pollution thanks to lack of action in Jakarta and an expected El Nino weather pattern.
The prosperous city-state, which prides itself on its clean air, was shrouded in heavy smog from slash-and-burn clearances on the neighbouring Indonesian island of Sumatra last June which sent its air pollution index to a record high.
One year on, and an election-distracted government in Indonesia has still not ratified the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) 2002 Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution, and fires continue to burn in Sumatra.
That is despite outrage in Singapore as well as environmental groups putting pressure on Jakarta. Fires are used to clear land on plantations and can burn for weeks because of peat deposits below the surface.
There is also a growing likelihood of an El Nino weather pattern this year, meaning Singapore, as well as parts of Indonesia and Malaysia, could be set for months of intense haze with a knock-on effect on health and business, especially tourism. More
