  • Expanding Efforts to Understand, Connect with, and Educate Flood-Prone Communities about Flood Forecasts

    Open AccessKathryn Semmens, Rachel Hogan Carr et al.ARTICLEWeather, Climate, and Society2026

    Though flood forecasting has improved over the past decades, flooding impacts are still significant for many flood-prone areas. Challenges in communicating risk relate to dissemination and understanding of the flood forecast information. While the National Weather Service (NWS) is a trusted source of this information, the range of cultural and social dynamics, economic resources, and communication capacities communities have can affect the value …

  • Introducing the Flooding and Society Survey Dataset

    Open AccessMakenzie J Krocak, Joe Ripberger et al.ARTICLEWeather, Climate, and Society2025

    Data inform weather prediction as well as decision-making, and knowing how people use forecast information for different hazards is immensely valuable. While some data on public reception, comprehension, and response exist in the form of repeated cross-sectional surveys related to severe, tropical, and winter weather events, no large-scale data collection effort has thus far focused specifically on flooding. The 2024 Flooding and Society Survey i…

  • What Impact? Communicating Severity Forecast Information through the Winter Storm Severity Index

    Open AccessKathryn Semmens, Rachel Hogan Carr et al.ARTICLEWeather, Climate, and Society2023

    Communicating the threat of severe winter weather is not simply a matter of the number of inches of snow or degrees of cold; it also considers the potential impacts of the storm. The winter storm severity index (WSSI) is a graphical product from the National Weather Service that presents anticipated impacts from forecast winter weather for a range of winter conditions. To assess the utility of the WSSI and how an impact-based winter weather forec…

  • Getting More out of Storm Surge Forecasts

    Open AccessRobert Munroe, Robert J Munroe et al.ARTICLEWeather, Climate, and Society2018

    Storm surge has been identified as a dangerous and damaging coastal hazard that is expected to be exacerbated by rising sea levels. However, storm surge research and applications are relatively new and poorly understood compared to other storm-related hazards. This survey-based research of emergency support personnel across eastern North Carolina aims to connect ongoing research with the needs of storm surge users. Results indicate that emergency…

  • Linking Water Infrastructure, Public Health, and Sea Level Rise

    Open AccessThomas R Allen, Thomas W Crawford et al.ARTICLEPublic Works Management & Policy2018Citada por: 6Referencias: 2

    Coastal community water infrastructure is increasingly vulnerable to climate-sensitive coastal hazards. Tides, storm surges, rainfall, and salt intrusion affect infrastructure and human health. In case studies of Charleston, South Carolina, and Morehead City, North Carolina, USA, this project sought to advance risk assessment of urban water and wastewater infrastructure and identify linkages to human health impacts as risk evolves with sea level …

  • Motivating Action under Uncertain Conditions

    Rachel Hogan Carr, Burrell E Montz et al.ARTICLEWeather, Climate, and Society2016

    Coastal flood risk communication is most effective at motivating action when the medium and timing of delivery provide understandable information with clear directives when residents need it most. The U.S. National Weather Service (NWS) has many useful coastal flood forecast tools and products, but how and when this information is delivered are of critical importance. To assess how coastal residents understand and interpret NWS coastal flood prod…

  • Forecast and weather-related information used among coastal tourism businesses

    Emily P Ayscue, Emily Ayscue et al.ARTICLETourism Geographies2015Citada por: 3Referencias: 39

    Coastal tourism businesses comprise a large and diverse consumer of climate and weather forecasts information. An online survey of tourism business owners, managers and support specialists was conducted within the eight North Carolina oceanfront counties asking respondents about forecast usage and purposes as well as why certain forecasts are not used. Respondents were also asked about the perceived dependency of their business on climate and wea…
