A | An office at the Department of Homeland Security that helps detect biological and chemical weapons could shutter if Congress doesn't fund it by December -- an increasingly likely possibility as Republicans on Capitol Hill struggle to select a speaker.The Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction Office at the Department of Homeland Security, which is the one-stop shop for the department's detection and research of biological weapons, will close if not funded by December because of language put into the initial development of the office in 2018.Some of the capabilities of the office include supporting large events like the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade with radiological detection devices and supporting state and local governments with nuclear detection devices."This is a highly charged environment, and the threat environment is complex and it is complicated," Mary Ellen Callahan, the assistant secretary for countering weapons of mass destruction, told reporters at DHS headquarters on Thursday. "The CWMD office was created to have the subject matter expertise to be able to address a multitude of chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats and to go and help support those who are the first responders, who are really the canaries in the coal mine, so to speak, and to help support the homeland."The office she oversees is the only one that looks at "state, local, tribal, territorial aspect of response to nuclear threats," she said.For example, the programs that partner with 14 major cities to detect and prepare a response for nuclear events would go away, Callahan said.Officials within the office said budgetary constraints could cause a strain for those cities."They would have to recreate [the CWMD office] and spend resources that they don't presently have," one DHS official said.Callahan told reporters that lawmakers are on board with legislation for the office to continue it is just about how to get it done in time before the office is terminated."It's a complicated congressional environment," she said.Much House business -- including appropriating funds to government agencies -- has come to a grinding halt following the ouster of former Speaker Kevin McCarthy. After House Republicans twice rejected Rep. Jim Jordan for speaker, it appears there will be a third floor vote, although the timing is not yet clear.。 Sophie 编译 今年夏天，新西兰的天气好坏参半，天气预报显示，有些地方的天气要好于其他地方。 今天早晨，Niwa首席科学家Chris Brandolino在Breakfast节目上谈到了厄尔尼诺天气对新西兰的影响。
B | Advertise with us “我们逐个岛来看，”他说，“基本上，从现在到圣诞节，北岛大部分地区温暖干燥。在接下来的几天里，北岛南部将会有几阵雨，但基本上还是温暖干燥的，包括圣诞节当天。” “如果你打算在北岛中部的高原露营，下周的这个时候可能会有阵雨和雷暴，但总的来说，还是挺不错的。” Brandolino说，南岛的情况就不同了，圣诞节前的天气变化更大。 “南岛西部可能会出现降雨，包括本周末。一个潮湿的周末即将到来。” “南岛东部可能会变暖，但随着我们快进到，比如平安夜，大概23日、24日、25日，南岛西部可能会有一场大雨。我们需要密切关注这个。” “如果你假期里计划去峡湾、南岛西部或奥塔哥内陆、皇后镇，那么随着圣诞假期的临近，这些地方可能会有一些降雨。” 气象学家敦促露营者和徒步者特别注意天气预报。 “但在夏天的其余时间里，天气会变化多端。

D | ” “在即将到来的1月和2月期间，我们将面临更多的干旱。” 总的来说，Brandolino对未来持乐观态度。 “记得去年夏天吧？对北岛来说，那是一个糟糕的夏天。” “我认为这个夏天很可能会更好，所以这是个好消息。” 本周末天气 今天，新西兰东部温暖的地区将迎来30摄氏度的高温，预计对一些地区来说，这将是迄今为止夏季最热的一天。 专家表示，随着圣诞节的临近，这种天气预示着一段时间的稳定，阳光充足。
E | 布伦海姆、坎特伯雷东部和奥塔哥北部的气温最高，中午时分将达到30摄氏度的高温。 Brandolino说，北岛的气温不会那么高，但“仍然值得注意”。 “吉斯本和霍克斯湾将在今天出现北岛的最高温度，可能很快，东部丰盛湾也会变得相当温暖。” 随着我们进入周末，同样的地区预计将保持炎热和阳光充足。 “这一时期可能是全国大部分地区持续温暖和相对稳定天气的开始。” 不过，据MetService称，其他地区今天将无法享受到晴朗的天空和灿烂的阳光，因为风向转向西北风，导致南岛西海岸有降雨。 气象专家Lewis Ferris说：“从周五到周六，从峡湾到布勒沿海地区已经发布了暴雨预警，另一条锋线将在周日带来更多大雨。
