Clipper Race sailors set for the big one: Ocean racers gear up for relentless North Pacific Crossing This week, 200 adventurers have set sail from Tongyeong, Korea, with the next stop Seattle, USA, as they take on one of the most remote stretches of ocean on the planet: the North Pacific.

5/5 - Leg 9 is the backbone of the #ClipperRace. It turns amateurs into seasoned offshore racers, capable of mastering massive weather systems where few commercial vessels dare to venture. 🌍🥇

Satellites capture a mega-storm in the North Pacific that produced giant waves up to 115 feet high that traveled nearly 15,000 miles Satellites confirm Storm Eddie spawned 115-foot waves—then the monster swell surged nearly 15,000 miles across oceans.

Pacific 'blob' heat wave now spans an area the size of the US Pacific marine life will experience a "baseline food web disruption."

Sadly, the #NorthPacific where the shearwaters have been over-wintering has just experienced "The Blob" (a persistent body of unusually warm water). And it's especially large, spanning ~8 million km (roughly the size of the USA) www.sfgate.com/bayarea/arti...

WW: Giant yellow bamboo _(Suspect_ Phyllostachys vivax _. This is very big stuff - diameters up to 4 inches and heights to maybe 60 feet. This grove occurs in the neighbourhood where I grew up, on a tract of land that was once a farmer's backyard, but has been untended for 50 years now. Always surreal to see such an iconic plant of the tropics growing so happily here on the North Pacific Coast.) _ Appearing also on My Corner of the World.
