Resiliency Academy Session 1 — The Latest on Climate in the Mid-Atlantic, September 5, 102:30 pm
Event Description

As our climate is changing, we are experiencing more extreme events, such as heat waves and storms, which are impacting the way our communities need to plan. The first session of the Fall Resiliency Academy will discuss climate risks for the Mid-Atlantic region including a high-level overall view of risks and a closer look at risks from extreme precipitation and heat. We'll also take a look at how extreme events are impacting the coast.

Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how localities across the region are impacted by the changing climate and what they will need to consider in their planning efforts.
