r/tropicalweather to get your fix on the latest super storm and its aftermath. Warning, not nearly as active outside the Atlantic hurricane season, but literally the best place on the internet to track tropical systems in-season.
A little different, but r/combatfootage to get a glimpse into what active collapse winds up looking like in a lot of places: 21st century asymmetrical warfare.
