Statements
Storms are intense weather events with strong winds that can cause significant damage to infrastructure and ecosystems. They are characterized by severe winds, and can lead to large waves, and high storm surges. Assessing the impact of climate change on these events is challenging due to their rarity, short duration, and local variability.
