- WMO issues new guidelines on evaluation of weather and climate extremes
Knowledge of weather and climate extremes is critically important, not only for climate science, but also for practical purposes For example, when designing a building or a bridge, it is essential to know, based on past observations, how fast the wind speeds in a given geographical area could actually reach
