Through June, the U.S. area burned by wildfires in 2022 was more than double the long-term average.

The Camp Fire in Paradise, California, was the deadliest and most destructive wildfire in California’s history. Smoke blanketed millions of residents for two weeks. A new study finds that a NOAA model accurately predicted the smoke's general movement during the first week.

Atlantic nations have agreed to cooperate on tackling environmental and climatic challenges affecting the Atlantic Ocean. The United States plans to host the signing of an international cooperation pact on July 13, 2022.

As greenhouse gas emissions have risen, Arctic sea ice has declined. But natural variability influencing winds can also affect sea ice. A recent study finds the atmospheric mode associated with likely melt is a summertime “Figure-8” high pressure centered over the Arctic and extending over Greenland.

Ocean currents affect life in the ocean and climate over the surrounding continents. For more than 20 years an observatory at 23°W on the equator has measured local ocean current velocities. These data have now been made publicly available for the first time.

NOAA has released the Spring 2022 Mid-Atlantic Regional Climate Impacts Summary and Outlook. The summary covers significant weather events, temperature and precipitation, and an outlook for summer 2022.
