Let it Rain: NASA Satellites Show Slice of Global Precip
2014-03-15 14:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Climate Central: Lacy ribbons of precipitation stretch across the planet in a new animation from NASA showing how widespread and yet ephemeral rain can be. A series of satellites known as the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) measure heavy to moderate rain over tropical and subtropical regions every day. From those satellite measurements taken every 3 hours through February 21, NASA has strung them together into a 27-second video. The power of the ridiculously resilient ridge off of California can be...
Days Without Rain to Increase by End of The Century

Auto World: Researchers from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, UC San Diego, revealed in a study this week that select parts of the world can expect 30 days a year without precipitation by the end of the century. The study was published in Scientific Reports, an open-access journal from Nature Publishing Group. Climate change, caused mainly by human influences, will change how rain and snow falls. For example, areas that are considered dry locations will receive their precipitation in narrower windows...
From Drought, To Drenching? El Nino Likely To Return With Torrential Rain

Associated Press: Warmer ocean temperatures off the California coast--and the massive impact on local and global climate--could be coming again, with predictions indicating an El Nio is possible this year. The expected conditions would lead to more rain this coming winter, lessening California`s drought, and the southern states` drought, plus a milder winter for the nation`s frigid northern states, and fewer Atlantic hurricanes. Mike Halpert, acting director of NOAA`s Climate Prediction Center, says the El...
