The National Weather Service's National Operational Hydrologic Remote Sensing Center produces maps and offers data for snow water equivalent, snow Depth, average snowpack temperatures, snow water equivalent change, snow/non-snow precipitation, snow melt, sublimation, and snow reports. Additionally, station reports and interpolated snowfall products are available.
The High Plains Regional Climate Center provides access to a suite of temperature and precipitation maps across the United States. A user-friendly interface enables users to easily choose from a comprehensive range of products, timescales, and regions.
This site provides outlooks for sea levels over the next six months as well as analysis of sea levels over the past six months. The tool shows a discussion of current conditions, and lets users click tide gauge locations around the Pacific to view forecasts, tide charts, and potential impacts.

This program from the American Geophysical Union (AGU) helps volunteer scientists and community leaders work together to use science, especially Earth and space science, to tackle community issues and advance local priorities related to natural hazards, natural resources, and climate change. Goals of the program include launching 100 partnerships, engaging over 100 AGU members, catalyzing 100 shareable solutions, and improving the lives of 10 million people by 2019. The program focuses on:
To help producers and communities meet the challenges of extreme weather events, changing growing seasons, and variation in precipitation, the Cornell Climate Smart Farming program has developed a variety of free, on-line decision-making tools for farmers in the Northeastern United States. These tools combine local weather station, climate, and agricultural data to help farmers make informed management decisions in both the short- and long-term.
Gulf TREE (Tools for Resilience Exploration Engine) is a search engine; it uses a decision-support tree to match Gulf Coast users with relevant climate resilience tools. The brief set of questions help users quickly, easily, and confidently sift through the plethora of resilience-building tools to help them find one (or more) tools that are most relevant to their needs.
Climate change is a growing concern for forests across Minnesota. Foresters, land managers, and landowners are considering how to prepare for future conditions and how to evaluate risks for particular sites.
This guide, a downloadable PDF, highlights key information that can be used during field visits or forest planning. The developers hope that the guide will help foresters consider climate change risks together with local site characteristics, and help people design adaptation actions that meet management goals.
Coastal flooding in the United States is already occurring and the risk of flooding is expected to grow in most coastal regions, in part due to climate change. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention developed this booklet to identify steps that citizens can take to prepare for the health risks associated with coastal flooding.
This two-page handout, downloadable in PDF format, summarizes the benefits of green infrastructure. It also includes short success stories and key points covered during NOAA’s Green Infrastructure for Coastal Resilience training.
