Scientists say recent extreme snowstorms are consistent with weather patterns shifting due to climate change. A warmer atmosphere holds more moisture, which can lead to more intense precipitation, ...

Climate scientists have long watched the jet stream with fascination and growing concern. These rivers of air racing across our planet at altitudes of roughly 5-9 miles dictate much of our day-to-day ...

A multi-century climate record suggests that current Atlantic jet-stream variations are not the cause of an increase in extreme weather events. Read the paper: Past hydroclimate extremes in Europe ...

(The Conversation) – The summer of 2025 brought unprecedented flash flooding across the U.S., with the central and eastern regions hit particularly hard. These storms claimed hundreds of lives across ...
