Mar 18 2024 at 09:42:56 UTCDevastating wildfires have swept through Sichuan and Yunnan Provinces in southern China since March 15, 2024, claiming four lives in Yunnan and leading to significant evacuations and damage. Reports from March 18 indicate that nearly 4 900 individuals have been evacuated in Sichuan's Yajiang County alone, with the fires ravaging over 10 000 ha (24 710 acres) of land.

Mar 18 2024 at 04:47:56 UTCGuaratiba, a neighborhood on Rio De Janeiro's west side, recorded a thermal sensation of 62.3 °C (144.14 °F) at 09:55 LT on Sunday, March 17, 2024, marking the highest value since the Rio Alert System's inception in 2014. The intense heat, exacerbated by high humidity, has led to increased beach and pool attendance amidst reports of water shortages.

Mar 17 2024 at 06:45:00 UTCScientists at the 55th Lunar and Planetary Science Conference in The Woodlands, Texas, announced the discovery of a vast volcano and a potential glacier ice sheet in Mars' Tharsis volcanic province, near the equator. The finding, based on images from spacecraft orbiting Mars since 1971, highlights a volcano provisionally named "Noctis" and suggests the presence of glacier ice beneath a volcanic deposit. This discovery opens new avenues for studying Mars' geological evolution and future exploration.

Mar 17 2024 at 03:04:56 UTCTropical Cyclone "Megan" formed on March 16, 2024, in the Gulf of Carpentaria as the 5th named storm of the 2023/24 Australian region cyclone season. Megan has reached Category 3 intensity today and is forecast to cross the southwest coast of the Gulf of Carpentaria, most likely on Monday, March 18, with wind gusts up to 220 km/h (137 mph).

Mar 16 2024 at 16:58:51 UTCA moderately strong solar flare registered as M3.5 erupted from the southeast limb of the Sun at 16:35 UTC on March 16, 2024. The event started at 16:22 and ended at 16:44 UTC. This flare was partially eclipsed by the edge of the Sun, which means it was much stronger than M3.5.
- Proton flux rising following multiple long-duration C-class flares, S1 – Minor solar radiation stormMar 16 2024 at 03:09:42 UTCAlthough solar activity was at low levels over the past 24 hours, multiple long-duration C-class solar flares, associated with activity from Region 3599 as it rotated beyond the west limb, produced coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that sent proton flux rising to S1 - Minor levels.
