For many migraine sufferers, weather changes are a significant trigger, with shifts in barometric pressure, temperature, and humidity playing a role. These environmental factors can activate pain pathways in the brain, leading to debilitating headaches. While the weather is uncontrollable, tracking migraines, adopting healthy habits, and considering preventive treatments can help manage and reduce the impact of weather-related migraines.

After decades working as a fisherman on a high-altitude Mexican lake, Froylan Correa is now helping to save an endangered amphibian with gills resembling a lion's mane and a remarkable regenerative ability. After the hatchlings have grown enough, they are moved to the community's achoque protection reserve, where the fishermen care for them until they are ready to be released into the lake, said Israel Correa, a relative of Froylan Correa.

Europe and the Mediterranean basin has been hit by a long-lasting drought covering over 45 percent of the region since mid-analysis of European Drought Observatory (EDO) data made available on Tuesday. The EDO data -- up to June 20 -- shows that drought in the region has worsened.

Poland's longest river, the Vistula, on Friday hit a record-low water level in Warsaw, as the country faces an unprecedented drought, the national weather agency said.

The International Seabed Authority (ISA) meets next week to continue debating rules for ocean floor mining in international waters, after the United States moved to unilaterally kick-start the controversial industry. The United States, which is not a signatory to the UN convention or an ISA member, disrupted the painstaking process this year when President Donald Trump issued an executive order calling for his government to speed up issuing permits for underwater mining, including in internation

The snow and ice accumulated last winter by Switzerland's glaciers has already melted away, a monitoring service said, with Friday marking the alarming second-earliest arrival on record of the tipping point known as glacier loss day. With no glacier loss day, the summer would simply melt away only the snow that accumulated over the previous winter.

The United States government's climate assessment reports are missing from official websites. These reports are crucial for local governments and the public. Scientists worry about the removal of this vital information. The White House claims the data will be moved to NASA. However, the reports are not currently accessible. Experts fear this action hinders climate change preparation efforts.

A severe east coast low, potentially a weather bomb, is developing off the NSW coast, fueled by unusually warm seas. Expected to intensify rapidly, it threatens heavy rains, strong winds, and huge waves, particularly impacting areas south of Coffs Harbour already devastated by recent floods. Residents are urged to prepare for potential damage to property, infrastructure, and significant coastal erosion.
