Digitally colored elevation map of Washington. Climate change in the US state of Washington is a subject of study and projection today. The major impacts of climate change in Washington State include increase in carbon dioxide levels, increase in temperatures, earlier annual snow melt, sea level rise, and others.
Aug. 23—Mount Washington provides a close-up view of Alpine weather, and 90 years of Mount Washington Observatory data provides a window on climate. "It's hard to find trends on a day-to-day ...
The Mount Washington Auto Road—originally the Mount Washington Carriage Road—is a 7.6-mile (12.2 km) private toll road on the east side of the mountain, rising 4,618 feet (1,408 m) from an altitude of 1,527 feet (465 m) at the bottom to 6,145 feet (1,873 m) at the top, an average gradient of 11.6%. The road was completed and opened to the ...

Wisconsin may be one of the least vulnerable states in the nation against climate change. But experts say that doesn't mean the state isn't at risk. A new map shows how vulnerable neighborhoods ...
Instead of needing to first choose among a range of projection maps (usually at 30-year intervals) based on a variety of IPCC-approved computer models, forest managers would be offered a single map that aggregates three such models, utilizes 19 climate variables, and restricts its focus to mid-century projections. As well, instead of outputs ...
On Monday, the U.N.’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Working Group II, released its latest report assessing the damages of climate change. In a press conference, the U.N. Secretary ...
Climate change increased temperature, reduced the amount of precipitation, decreased snowpack and increased the ability of air to soak humidity, helping to create arid conditions. As of 2021 the drought was the most severe in the last 500 years. [65] As of 30 June 2021 61% of continental USA were in drought conditions.
