Webinar | Weather Extremes – Impacts to Sites, Security, Society, and Supply Chains
Thursday, January 29, 2025 | 1:00 PM – 2:00 PM ET
About the Webinar
Extreme weather trends over the past 50 years have indicated a strong need for localized data regarding the amplification of weather events, and the impacts to the infrastructure and their interdependencies across regions.
This webinar takes an in-depth look at changes that are occurring at the upper levels of the atmosphere with our barometric high- and low-pressure systems; those responsible for all weather from heatwaves and stagnate air events to tornadic outbreaks, including flash flooding and pivots in drought trends across multiple countries. The result is a heightened strain on the built environment as well as major ecological fluctuations which threaten key resource hubs, supply chain movement predictability, and societal reactivity. This will be a lively and informative session focusing on these issues and the implications for infrastructure operators, risk managers, and supply chain leaders who should prepare for a more volatile landscape over the coming decades.
