  | * NATO: NATO will hold the largest exercise ever from June 12-23. It will include newly added members Finland and Sweden. The exercises will use 10,000 troops and 220 aircraft. * Tunisia, Ghana, Egypt, and Lebanon are facing dual food and debt crises. Egypt is currently facing the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression. China has already stepped in, repairing the Iranian and Saudia-Arabian conflict. These further issues are likely creating an opening for China to continue to gain world power in Africa and the Middle East. Israel is facing internal issues with a population that revolted against the Netanyahu government’s judicial reform law and is losing support from Western Nations (lack of support from the Biden Administration). In 2.5 years the United States has lost the support and partnership of Saudia Arabia and is luke warm in its dealing with Israel. |

| Advisory |
| – Fire Watch * https://www.fire.ca.gov/incidents/ -Warnings/ Advisories (NOAA) Warning: A warning is issued when a hazardous weather or hydrologic event is occurring, imminent or likely. A warning means weather conditions pose a threat to life or property. People in the path of the storm need to take protective action. Advisory: An advisory is issued when a hazardous weather or hydrologic event is occurring, imminent or likely. Advisories are for less serious conditions than warnings, that cause significant inconvenience and if caution is not exercised, could lead to situations that may threaten life or property. Watch: A watch is used when the risk of a hazardous weather or hydrologic event has increased significantly, but its occurrence, location or timing is still uncertain. It is intended to provide enough lead time so those who need to set their plans in motion can do so. A watch means that hazardous weather is possible. People should have a plan of action in case a storm threatens and they should listen for later information and possible warnings, especially when planning travel or outdoor activities. * Flood Warning: Merced. * Flood Advisory: Tulare, Fresno; Kings, Fresno; Madera. – Weather (South Bay/ San Jose) * Air Quality in the south Bay Area is Good. * Sunrise – 0648 hrs.
