Extreme Weather

Extreme weather refers to unusual and severe meteorological conditions that deviate significantly from the average climate of a region. This can include phenomena such as hurricanes, tornadoes, floods, droughts, heatwaves, cold spells, and heavy snowfall. Extreme weather events often result from complex interactions between atmospheric conditions, ocean currents, and geographic factors. These events can lead to substantial damage to property, infrastructure, and ecosystems, as well as pose risks to human health and safety. The frequency and intensity of extreme weather events have been observed to increase in various parts of the world, often attributed to climate change and global warming, leading to heightened concerns about their impacts on society and the environment.
