Extreme Weather

Extreme Weather refers to severe and unusual weather events that significantly deviate from typical conditions. These phenomena can include hurricanes, tornadoes, severe thunderstorms, blizzards, heatwaves, droughts, and floods. Extreme weather is often characterized by its intensity, duration, and potential for causing significant damage to the environment, infrastructure, and human life. Such events are often linked to climate change, which could increase their frequency and severity. Extreme weather can disrupt ecosystems, impact agricultural practices, pose risks to public safety, and lead to substantial economic losses. Understanding extreme weather is crucial for disaster preparedness and risk management.
