Tropical moisture will trigger downpours across the Desert Southwest this week, leading to flooding and mudslides from California to Colorado.

THE TAKEAWAYChampi is expected to peak as a violent super typhoon with winds exceeding 160 mph. Another tropical threat — designated Invest 94E — is taking shape in the Pacific. The Pacific basin remains active amid a brewing Super El Niño. The Pacific remains a hotbed of tropical activity this week as Typhoon Champi churns across the region, while the FOX Forecast Center keeps a close eye on another area for potential development. The basin remains supercharged, fueling monster storms across the basin, including Champi, which has impacted Guam in recent days, with little sign of relief as Tropical Storm Trudy lingers near Mexico. CALIFORNIA STORMS COULD BRING MUCH-NEEDED RAIN AND RELIEF TO WILDFIRE-WEARY AREASThe FOX Forecast Center is also monitoring an additional storm that could develop in the near future.

With Halloween around the corner, here are some simple swaps to make your display a treat for the neighbourhood...without tricking our wildlife. Skip the stretchy, fake spider webs outdoors. Birds and bats can get tangled in them. Try window clings or indoor webs instead. Keep lighting low and warm. Avoid bright spotlights and flashing lights, and turn decorations off overnight. Secure your decorations. Loose strings, fishing line and dangling decorations can entangle wildlife or blow away. (Marta Czurylowicz/The Weather Network)To prevent potential fires, choose battery-operated candles or lights instead of open flames. Be mindful of noise and motion. Loud, startling props can disturb animals, especially at night. Clean up daily. Pick up loose plastic, check for fallen decorations and make sure nothing has become a hazard. When you're done with those gourds, diispose of them responsibly so they don't attract wildlife, potentially putting them in harm's way on roads or in spaces near humans. The goal is to keep things spooky for the neighbours, not dangerous for nature.
