Damages from US weather and climate disasters reached a new record in 2020 2021-01-08T05:00:00Z “All of the things pointed in the direction of having a very active season, and then it came to fruition,” says Matthew Rosencrans, a meteorologist at NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center.

Riskiest Spot for Rising Seas Is 50 Miles from the Ocean 2020-11-25T05:00:00Z Amy Butler, an atmospheric scientist with NOAA, agrees, but mentioned some uncertainty midwinter. Signs point to a strong polar vortex to start winter. Here’s what that may mean. 2020-11-19T05:00:00Z NOAA’s disaster report is the latest documentation of costly climate trends for 2020. Billion-Dollar Disasters Shattered U.S. Record in 2020 2021-01-11T05:00:00Z “I don’t see him being able to pull this off,” said Eileen Shea, a climate science and policy consultant who previously led NOAA’s climate services division. Trump administration official who questions global warming to run key U.S. climate program 2020-11-11T05:00:00Z “It shouldn’t be surprising.

Record-Breaking Tropical Storm Eta Drenches Florida 2020-11-10T05:00:00Z The official outlook from NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center, released Thursday, favors warmer, drier conditions across the Southern tier of the U.S. and cooler, wetter conditions in the north, consistent with an ongoing La Niña. With dry La Niña conditions, persistent Western drought looms large in winter outlook 2020-10-16T04:00:00Z The White House and Commerce Department pushed NOAA’s acting administrator, Neil Jacobs, to reprimand weather forecasters for their correction of the president’s map and tweets.

La Niña may signal scant relief from California's seemingly endless loop of hot, dry weather 2020-10-10T04:00:00Z Mike Halpert, deputy director of NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center, told reporters in a briefing Thursday morning that forecasters don’t know exactly why the 2020 Southwestern monsoon failed so spectacularly. With dry La Niña conditions, persistent Western drought looms large in winter outlook 2020-10-16T04:00:00Z According to NOAA’s hurricane records, the 2020 season is inching closer to a record-breaking year. Climate Change May Cause More Storms to Rapidly Intensify, As Delta Did 2020-10-09T04:00:00Z For example, Dolly, in late June, flared up farther north than any tropical storm on record during that month, tweeted Sam Lillo, a postdoctoral researcher at NOAA.

Trump makes a final push against climate science as election nears 2020-10-27T04:00:00Z The changes symbolize a coordinated effort to reshape NOAA’s senior leadership in the dusk of Trump’s first term. Trump White House recruited climate science critics to work at NOAA 2020-09-28T04:00:00Z But Jim Kossin, a hurricane expert at NOAA, also pointed to pollution as at least one key factor in Atlantic hurricane frequency over the last few decades. Recipe for a Busy Hurricane Season: Warmer Water, Cleaner Air 2020-08-21T04:00:00Z “Weather and climate models are all indicating an even higher likelihood of an extremely active season,” said NOAA’s chief hurricane seasonal forecaster Gerry Bell.

Washington state officials slam Navy’s changes to military testing program that would harm more orcas 2020-07-29T04:00:00Z “This year, we expect more, stronger, and longer-lived storms than average, and our predicted ACE range extends well above NOAA’s threshold for an extremely active season,” Bell said in a news release. NOAA’s new hurricane outlook shows so many storms, we may have to turn to the Greek alphabet 2020-08-06T04:00:00Z But there’s also a 40% to 45% chance, according to NOAA, that we will remain stuck in neutral for the fall and winter.

Northern Right Whales Are on the Brink, and Trump Could Be Their Last Hope 2020-07-09T04:00:00Z The issuance of the statement, the inspector general found, damaged NOAA’s reputation as a science and public safety agency. Investigation rebukes Commerce Department for siding with Trump over forecasters during Hurricane Dorian 2020-07-09T04:00:00Z He said NOAA’s unsigned statement in September “was not intended to imply Birmingham did anything wrong.” Panel: NOAA bowed to political pressure in Dorian dispute 2020-06-16T04:00:00Z “NOAA seeks to jettison the law of the sea, developed over centuries,” the firm argued in legal documents filed earlier this year.
