Tropical Storm Gonzalo (Cabo Verde impact): Tropical Storm Gonzalo has brought tropical-storm conditions and gusty winds to the Cabo Verde islands, with warnings in effect as the storm moves north-northwest and is expected to pass near or over parts of the archipelago before gradually weakening into the weekend; forecasters also flag 1–3 inches of rain for the islands and higher rainfall risk along the wider West African coast. Atlantic storm outlook: Former Tropical Storm Fay is weakening in the open Atlantic and is expected to become post-tropical by early next week, while the broader Atlantic remains active but with no direct U.S. threat noted. Ocean monitoring push: At the UN General Assembly, Canada, the EU and partners launched the OceanEye International Alliance, securing over C$339 million (€211 million) to expand global ocean observation—supporting weather forecasts, climate predictions and coastal protection. Climate security warning (ECOWAS): ECOWAS parliamentarians warned that shrinking land and water are driving farmer-herder conflicts and migration, framing climate change as a governance and security challenge, not just an environmental one.
