The massive winter storm that buried much of the United States in snow this week is not inconsistent with climate change, a leading expert told Yahoo News.

At the start of February 2021, a major snowstorm hit the northeast United States, with some areas receiving well over two feet of snow. Just a few weeks earlier, Spain experienced a historic and deadly snowstorm and dangerously low temperatures. Northern Siberia is no stranger to cold, but in mid-January 2021, some Siberian cities reported temperatures below minus 70 F (minus 56 C). Media headlines hint that the polar vortex has arrived, as if it were some sort of ice tornado that wreaks wintry havoc wherever it strikes.

China reveals plans to expand its experimental weather modification program over the next five years, to cover an area greater than the size of India with artificial rainfall.

“Get Out the Greek Alphabet For the Rest of 2020,” the National Hurricane Center wrote in a Tweet Friday. 

Guide explaining how hurricanes, typhoons or cyclones form, their effects and how they are measured.

Anemometer is the device that we use to measure the speed of the air. An Anemometer can measure both contained flow (airflow through ducts or vents) and free flow of air (atmospheric air). Anemometers can be of different types such as hot wire Anemometers, venturi meters, cup Anemometer, etc.

Measuring wind speed requires a specific device named Anemometer. The history of the making of the first Anemometer dates back to 100 years ago, gradually, it

I know a stiff wind. They call this place Storm Lake, after all. But until recently most Iowans had never heard of a “derecho”. They have now. Last Monday, a derecho tore 770 miles from Nebraska to Indiana and left a path of destruction up to 50 miles wide over 10m acres of prime cropland. It blew 113 miles per hour at the Quad Cities on the Mississippi River.

What could be the highest temperature ever reliably recorded on Earth - 130F (54.4C) - may have been reached in Death Valley National Park, California. The recording is being verified by the US National Weather Service. It comes amid a heatwave on the US's west coast, where temperatures are forecast to rise further this week.

Your tablet and smartphone can be invaluable tools to help you stay out of harm's way during hurricane season.

"Modern 72-hour predictions of hurricane tracks are more accurate than 24-hour forecasts were 40 years ago."

We all know how quickly the weather can change, and that's how fast a weather app can change, too. Dark Sky announced on March 31 that it had been bought by Apple and that its Android app will be shutting down this summer. Dark Sky even used a severe weather alert to spread the news in other apps that use Dark Sky's API, just to make sure you'd know even if you didn't use its app.

Amphan was upgraded at 3 am EDT Monday to the highest possible level: super cyclonic storm. Only a handful of storms—about one per decade—achieve this level, which corresponds to a three-minute-averaged wind speed of 120 knots (140 mph).

99 years ago this week, the biggest solar storm of the 20th century struck Earth. It set fire to buildings, burnt out telephone lines, and sparked auroras as far south as Tonga and Samoa. New research suggests that the Great Geomagnetic Storm of May 1921 may have been even stronger than previously thought.

The role that atmospheric water vapor plays in weather is complex and not clearly understood. However, University of Arizona researchers have started to tease out the relationship between morning soil moisture and afternoon rainfall under different atmospheric conditions in a new study in the journal Geophysical Research Letters.

There aren’t any changes coming to Dark Sky for iOS "at this time."

Washington: At least 22 people died as tornadoes ripped through Tennessee early Tuesday, destroying buildings and toppling power lines hours before the southern US state was to vote in Super Tuesday primaries, officials said. Devastation could be seen across the rubble-strewn state capital Nashville, where a tornado touched down shortly after midnight. Residents described running for their lives as their homes came down around them, with the authorities reporting that tens of thousands of residents were without power.

Google says its forecasts are better than existing methods—but only for 6 hours.

Australia's heat wave poses grave health risks as it moves into regions with active wildfires.

The system is called GRAF, or Global High Resolution Atmospheric Forecasting, and will have many applications globally for governments and industries including airlines, agriculture and retail.
