binocular icon Local Hazard Outlooks

Mid-Atlantic residents are facing increasingly severe weather-related hazards, such as heat waves, flooding, shifting seasons, and storm surge. As these weather patterns evolve, it’s crucial to take proactive steps to protect both our communities and local ecosystems.

The Local Hazard Outlooks were designed to introduce and support policymakers, practitioners, residents, and community leaders by offering accessible, science-based data that highlights regional changes in extreme weather and its impacts. This information can guide decision-making to help plan and prepare for future weather and related impacts. With planning and preparation, the Mid-Atlantic region can reduce risks for all residents.
