Forward-thinking leaders need accurate and timely climate data and information to protect their communities. Knowing whatโs coming and how to respond allows for informed decisions that prevent impact and reduce risk.
The South-Central United States is one of the most disaster-prone regions in the country, frequently experiencing billion-dollar climate disasters. Some of these weather events are becoming more frequent and more extreme, harming people and property in their wake. Costs of these events are also increasing, negatively impacting economies.
It can be overwhelming to sort through the resources that would help to lessen the impact of climate-related disasters.
