Reuters: Large storms like the blizzard that battered New England this week may become more severe but less frequent as the Earth's climate changes, scientists said on Thursday. The Canadian-led study noted that warmer air can hold more moisture, meaning more fuel for rain, hail or snow, and found knock-on effects on how the atmosphere generates storms. "In a future climate, the global atmospheric circulation might comprise highly energetic storms," they wrote in the journal Science. At the same...

Rwanda fills climate data gap to protect against storms
2014-12-17 08:00:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
SciDevNet: Rwanda's weather service is now better able to forecast floods and other natural disasters after scientists bridged climate-data gaps left by the 1994 genocide. The collection of national rainfall and temperature records lapsed for after the genocide, and the absence of reliable records had hampered the Rwanda Meteorology Agency's ability to forecast threats such as torrential rain or flooding that damaged homes and crops, and caused fatalities. But researchers have now combined Rwandan weather...
