Cal-Adapt

California residents and city and county planners can identify potential climate change risks in specific areas throughout the state and access easy-to-understand resources for local planning efforts.

Climate at a Glance

Generate graphs and maps of monthly temperature and precipitation values, ranks, and anomalies for the globe, contiguous U.S., states, climate divisions, and selected cities.

Climate Service Providers Database | NOAA Western Region

This "match-making app for the climate world" connects users of climate information with the wide array of information and services available in NOAA's Western Region.

Explore Climate Impacts

This interactive map—a companion to the Adaptation Workbook—lets you see how climate change may affect different regions and ecosystems in the U.S.

LASSO—Locating and Selecting Scenarios Online

GIS specialists who need climate projection data can locate, select, and download files of climate change projections that align with given research questions or objectives.

Missouri River Basin Region Quarterly Climate Impacts and Outlook

Each issue of this two-page report describes weather and climate highlights from the previous quarter, and indicates the most likely temperature and precipitation conditions for the upcoming quarter.

National Climate Change Viewer

Display maps, climographs, and histograms of projected change in temperature and precipitation from models in the CMIP5 experiment. Focus on any state, county, or hydrologic unit in the contiguous United States.

Our Coast, Our Future

Coastal resource managers and planners in the San Francisco Bay region can use locally relevant, online maps and tools to explore, visualize, and anticipate vulnerabilities related to sea level rise and storms.

POWER Project Services Platform

NASA's Prediction of Worldwide Energy Resources (POWER) project offers user communities data for solar and wind powered renewable energy systems, estimated building energy efficiency, and agroclimatology for crop models.

Rio Grande-Bravo Climate Impacts and Outlook

Users in the Rio Grande/Rio Bravo region of New Mexico, Texas, and Mexico can consult these monthly impact and outlook reports to get information on past and forecasted regional temperature, precipitation, ENSO, and fire conditions.

Santa Ana Wildfire Threat Index

Southern California mesonets—relatively dense networks of weather observation sensors—provide real-time information about weather conditions to help users understand the threat of wind-promoted wildfires.

Sea Level Rise Viewer

Explore how the shoreline is likely to change with increasing amounts of sea level rise. This tool from NOAA's Office of Coastal Management lets you visualize the potential impacts of coastal flooding so you can prioritize actions for different scenarios.
