NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration has predicted an 85% chance of an above-normal 2024 hurricane season due to near-record warm ocean temperatures in the Atlantic, development of La Niña conditions in the Pacific, reduced trade winds, and less wind shear, all of which favor tropical storm formation. It is important to note that NOAA’s outlook is for overall seasonal activity and is not a landfall forecast. And while the climate may be changing, one thing that has not changed is Tetra Tech’s commitment to our clients during disasters. For more than 20 years, Tetra Tech has provided preparedness planning, response, recovery, and mitigation services to federal, state, and local clients throughout the country, responding to nearly 100 major disasters and successfully completing thousands of projects in 44 U.S. states and territories.

The NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration forecasts above-normal hurricane activity in the Atlantic basin this year, including 8-13 hurricanes. Also, as of today, 52 large or notable new wildfires are burning across the Western US, causing numerous evacuations. As weather conditions change and natural disasters hit the US, it is crucial to prepare for the various weather-related circumstances that may impact your business. Having a facilities plan for natural disasters helps your organization bounce back. Be prepared by learning more: https://hubs.li/Q02Jq56R0 #facilities #solutions #plan

This morning NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration will be providing us with 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Season forecast. In advance of the forecast, sharing a really helpful piece by Raymond Zhong on the reason why storms are intensifying on parts of our nation and the importance of fortifying our #housing from wind and flood risk. “Violent clusters of thunderstorms cause extensive damage across the United States each year, not just through rain and flooding, but also through hail, tornadoes and walls of blasting wind. Here’s what to know about such storms, and how they might be changing in our warming climate”. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gd-YHM3f

My thoughts are with the people of the #Caribbean as #Hurricane Beryl approaches the Windward Islands with potentially life-threatening winds and coastal flooding. The US National Hurricane Center, which is the World Meteorological Organization regional centre, has issued Hurricane Warnings for Barbados, St Lucia, St Vincent and the Grenadines, Grenada and Tobago. Never has a tropical cyclone intensified so rapidly to Category 3/4 so early in the season. This season is expected to be extremely active, not least because of very warm ocean temperatures. Small islands are on the frontline of extreme weather and #climatechange impacts and are priorities for many WMO initiatives and for #EarlyWarningsForAll. This image is from NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration GOES East satellite. Latest information at hurricanes.gov

U.S. wetlands save over $30B yearly in flood damage costs. Wetlands are vital, cutting damages by 22% during Hurricane Sandy, for example. Do your part in keeping our wetlands and planet protected. And if more flooding occurs, Neptune has your back: https://zurl.co/O9Ay Source: American Rivers and NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration #WorldWetlandsDay #wetlands

As the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season approaches, the NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration's forecast predicts above-average activity, driven by high ocean heat content and the shift to La Niña conditions. This year, we anticipate 17 to 25 named storms, 8 to 13 hurricanes, and 4 to 7 major hurricanes. The World Meteorological Organization remains committed to early warning systems and disaster risk management, especially for vulnerable Small Island Developing States. Enhanced forecasts and improved communications are crucial as we face the challenges of more intense and frequent storms. Together, we can build resilience and protect communities from the impacts of severe weather: https://lnkd.in/dPfnNqpm

Yesterday, NOAA: National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration released its mid-season hurricane outlook 🌀 projecting a 90% probably of an above normal hurricane season. Read more here 👉 https://shorturl.at/Zd1d6 As we approach peak hurricane season, EPRI's Climate READi is continuing help the power sector anticipate and prepare for hurricane-related impacts. Earlier this summer, EPRI and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory published insights from a project where researchers coupled synthetic storm tracks with an outage prediction model to characterize future trends at the county scale across the U.S. Gulf and Atlantic Coasts. Check out their insights here 👉 https://lnkd.in/e5zwFeM6 EPRI's portfolio of hurricane-related research has recently been featured in multiple national publications including The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.
