Maps showcase the broad range of climates across the contiguous United States.
Warmth was widespread across the contiguous United States, while precipitation was a patchwork, with most of the drier-than-average regions in the already-parched West.
On October 5, 2021, retired former NOAA scientist Syukuro “Suki” Manabe was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics for his contributions to climate science.
A new video by the National Integrated Drought Information System (NIDIS) shows how drought is changing daily life in the southwestern United States.
Wildfires emit short-lived, nitrogen-containing gases that can contribute to air-quality issues. Modeling these gases has been difficult because their chemical reactions are rapid and spatially dispersed. A new field campaign studies the reactions to improve models.
The October 2021 climate outlook favors a warmer-than-average month for the central and eastern United States and wetter-than-average conditions for the Plains.
Costly and inconvenient, high-tide flooding of coastal communities is on the rise. Thanks to higher water levels from El Niño and sea level rise, the number of high-tide flood days in 2018 is projected to be 60% higher this year than would have been common around 2000.
