Session 12 Living in a Changing Environment: Special Session on Forecasting a Continuum of Environmental Threats (FACETs)

Wednesday, 31 January 2024: 4:30 PM-6:00 PM
Johnson AB (Hilton Baltimore Inner Harbor)
Host: Second Symposium on the Future of Weather, Forecasting, and Practice
Cochairs:
Stephanie J. Avey and Jack Lind, CIRA/AWC, Kansas City, MO

Forecasting a Continuum of Environmental Threats (FACETs) is a proposed next-generation weather forecast and warning framework for all weather hazards. This framework is expected to be modern, flexible, and designed to communicate clear and simple hazardous weather information to better serve the public. This session will cover FACETs efforts at all levels, including past, present, and future paradigms.
