An Indian farmer shows a dry, cracked paddy field. India's Meteorological Department says it expects the country to get at least 10 percent less rain this June-to-September monsoon season.

Tropical Storm Humberto formed near the Cape Verde Islands on Monday and was expected to strengthen into the first hurricane of the Atlantic storm season.

The incredible photo above was taken at Versoix am Genfersee, at the southern end of Lake Geneva, Switzerland, after an intense storm on January 26, 2005. Winds gusted to 31 meters/sec (70mph) as temperatures dropped to -12 to -7 Celsius (10 to 19F), causing massive waves and sea spray to encase everything near the shore in sheets of ice

A beautiful, unusual map that shows decades of foul ocean weather.

Since 1954, the World Meteorological Organization has been naming extreme storms after people. But we propose a new naming system. One that names extreme storms caused by climate change, after the policy makers who deny climate change and obstruct climate policy.

Scientists are attempting to control the weather by using lasers to create clouds, induce rain and even trigger lightning.

Tropical Storm Fernand slammed into the east coast of Mexico late Sunday, just hours after it formed over the western Bay of Campeche.

From Guatemala to China, sinkholes come in all shapes and sizes

Is it a bomb? Is it a disaster movie? No, it's a Rocky Mountains weather front caught on camera by photographer Greg Thow

This project displays over 100 years of NOAA monthly land temperature data collected from over 7,200 climate monitoring stations, with each month creating unique geometric artwork.

"How dare you wake me from my slumber!?"

Researchers pinpointed the molecule responsible for the searing pain of a burn, and may have found a new way of eliminating it entirely.

"It's hot enough to fry an egg" seems to be a universal expression of how damn hot it is. Most of the time, though, it's not really that hot. An egg must be heated to 158 °F (70 °C) before it properly fries. But the Associated Press reports that this child in China's Shandong province was...

The researchers believe that war and personal conflicts are links to shifts in climate.

Long before scientists began to study global warming, author Raymond Chandler described the violent effects of dry, "oven-hot" Santa Ana winds gusting through the city of Los Angeles.

If any single species has become the poster child for climate change, it is surely the polar bear. We all know the story: polar bears are creatures of the sea ice, and as Arctic sea ice continues its rapid decline, the future of polar bears is uncertain, with one study projecting that two-thirds of the global population could be extirpated by the middle of the twenty-first century.

Wild weather has already taken an $85 billion toll on the world so far in 2013. Believe it or not, that's actually a pretty typical sum for the first six months of the year.

Your mental image of Siberia is probably a snowy, wind-whipped expanse. Not this week. This week, Norilsk, the northernmost large city in the world, hit a balmy 32 degrees Celsius — about 90 Fahrenheit. It's normally in the mid-60s.

Recent research suggests that good weather leads to impaired judgment, reduced productivity, and happiness.

Global average temperatures in June were the fifth highest on record, as above-average heat conditions continued a multidecade streak, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration reported yesterday.
