Responding to the severity of drought conditions across the southern High Plains, drought and climate experts are organizing a series of webinars on conditions, impacts and outlooks. The first will be March 16, 11-noon central time, featuring John Neilsen-Gammon, Texas state climatologist. He will focus on drought in Kansas, Colorado, Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma, and will take questions at the end.
This series of webinars is a collaboration between the American Association of State Climatologists -- specifically Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Colorado and Kansas; the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency (National Weather Service, National Integrated Drought Information System, National Centers for Environmental Information, Southern Climate Impacts Planning Program); the National Drought Mitigation Center at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln; and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Southern Plains Climate Hub.
The webinar will be recorded and made available following the presentation. A PDF file will also be available.
