NOAA’s National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) is preparing to produce a new set of normals for the United States for the 1991-2020 period. Many normals will be generated in a similar manner to the most recent 1981-2010 cycle. NCEI seeks input from the user community regarding their suggestions for improving current products and methods of access. Requirements for potential new products of greater utility to user communities will also be collected.
