Climate Watch
Extreme weather and climate events bring serious impacts to various sectors. Because the frequency and intensity of these events is increasing as the climate changes, enhanced efforts are needed to mitigate associated risks to people and societies. Early warning systems play a crucial role in managing such risks and mitigating their impacts. Climate Watch systems produce advisories, generally called Climate Watches, on timescales extending from a week to a season.
These advisories constitute a mechanism to heighten user awareness, as early as possible, on existing or foreseen climate anomalies that could potentially trigger extreme weather and climate events and their associated negative impacts.
