Fueled by tropical moisture from the Caribbean, the system could dump four months’ worth of rain in less than a week. Flash flood watches cover more than 22 million people, and major rivers like the Ohio and Mississippi face the risk of significant surges. Meanwhile, severe storms and tornadoes are expected Tuesday and Wednesday from Texas to the Midwest, with heavy snow in northern Minnesota adding to the storm’s punch. | Israel Plans to Reoccupy 25% of Gaza Israel plans to reoccupy 25% of Gaza over the next two to three weeks as part of a renewed ground campaign aimed at forcing Hamas to release hostages, an official said Monday. The renewed ground operation follows a breakdown in cease-fire talks and has already triggered new evacuations, including in Rafah. If no new deal is reached, officials say the operation could expand further, potentially displacing most of Gaza’s 2 million residents. Israel is demanding the release of 11 living hostages and the remains of 16 others, rejecting Hamas' latest counteroffer. | Forbes Unveils 2025 Billionaires List Forbes released its annual World's Billionaires list Tuesday, featuring a record 3,028 people and 288 newcomers—more than ever—including household names like Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Seinfeld, and Arnold Schwarzenegger. The richest new entrant is Marilyn Simons, widow of hedge fund legend Jim Simons, with an estimated net worth of $31 billion. Not far behind is Lyndal Stephens Greth, daughter of late oil tycoon Autry Stephens, at $25.8 billion. The U.S. led the pack with 103 new billionaires, followed by Germany, China, India, and Russia. Nearly 70% of the newcomers are self-made, many from tech, crypto, and AI—including Anthropic cofounder Dario Amodei and Scale AI's Alexandr Wang. Bruce Springsteen hit $1.2 billion after selling his music catalog, while Seinfeld and Schwarzenegger each landed around $1.1 billion thanks to Netflix, syndication, and smart investing.
