"The UN International Organization for Migration said it believes 15,000 to 20,000 migrants are stranded in rural olive groves near the central Tunisian coastline.

In Texas, entire wheat fields are being ruined by seed sprouting on the standing stalk: the cause is abnormal heat and humidity.

So far this season, tornadoes are up 50+%
