News Around NOAA
It’s starting to feel a lot like spring in some parts of the country – and with that comes spring weather hazards such as flooding, thunderstorms, rip currents, tornadoes, and more.

March 1, 2022 - NOAA’s GOES-T blasts into orbit
GOES-T will track destructive wildfires, lightning, Pacific Ocean-based storms, dense fog, and other hazards that threaten the U.S. West Coast, Hawaii and Alaska. It will also monitor solar activity and space weather to provide early warnings of disruptions to power grids, communications and navigation systems.

February 15, 2022 - U.S. coastline to see up to a foot of sea level rise by 2050
The United States is expected to experience as much sea level rise by the year 2050 as it witnessed in the previous hundred years. That’s according to a NOAA-led report updating sea level rise decision-support information for the U.S. released today in partnership with half a dozen other federal agencies.

February 15, 2022 - NWS offers a new radar website for low bandwidth users
Local Standard Radar provides individuals on low bandwidth networks with a reliable, fast loading website for radar images, radar loops, and warning polygons in effect. The new option is similar to the NWS’s radar website that was discontinued in Dec. 2020.  

February 7, 2022 - NOAA helps fill critical communication gaps in wake of Tonga Tsunami 
As Tonga’s Hunga Tonga-Hunga Ha'apai volcano began to erupt on January 15, 2022, it sent more than tsunami waves across the Pacific Ocean — some forms of communications in the region were sent into the dark, too. The eruption broke an underwater communications cable, leaving most of the island nation without internet access and other forms of communication.

February 1, 2022 - World's longest lightning flash on record captured by NOAA satellites 
A single lightning bolt captured by NOAA satellites was recently certified by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) as the world’s longest flash on record (477 miles).

Facts About Lightning

Lightning’s unpredictability increases the risk to individuals and property.

Lightning often strikes outside of heavy rain and may occur as far as 10 miles away from any rainfall.

"Heat lightning" is actually lightning from a thunderstorm too far away for thunder to be heard. However, the storm may be moving in your direction!

Most lightning deaths and injuries occur when people are caught outdoors in the summer months during the afternoon and evening.

Your chances of being struck by lightning are estimated to be 1 in 600,000, but could be reduced even further by following safety precautions.

Lightning strike victims carry no electrical charge and should be attended to immediately.

FEMA: Levee System Information for Stakeholders
The Committee report provides a series of recommended actions for FEMA to consider as a means of addressing the challenge of assessing the flood protection and risk-reduction capabilities of levee systems and accurately assessing the flood risk posed to citizens and property in levee-impacted areas.
Specific actions taken by FEMA to address Committee recommendations and other stakeholder feedback will be announced on the Committee report page. Therefore, interested parties may wish to bookmark the Committee report page for future reference.
Back To Top

Find Information for Stakeholder Groups
FEMA encourages owners of property in areas that are impacted by levee systems to understand their current flood risk; to learn more about in-progress and planned projects that may have an impact on their flood risk; to consider flood insurance, floodproofing, and other protective measures; and to adhere to local floodplain management regulations and local evacuation procedures. FEMA also encourages other Map Mod and NFIP stakeholders to educate themselves about levee systems, and the risk to people and structures located in levee-impacted areas, by viewing the resources that are accessible through the links below.

FAQs • San Bruno, CA • CivicEngage
How can coastal flood studies be made more accurate?

FEMA readily shares methodology and data, and welcomes new information that will make the mapped flood hazard information even more accurate. It is important to note, however, that even when SFHAs are mapped with high precision for existing conditions, new residential and commercial development and natural changes in weather patterns may, over time, change conditions sufficiently to require a restudy to update the study to the new conditions. 

13.
If there is a margin of error in coastal flood studies, how can FEMA be sure that its flood insurance mandatory purchase requirement is not being applied to structures outside the Special Flood Hazard

FEMA's coastal flood studies and coastal flood hazard mapping, like all other hazard studies and maps, are not perfect. Some uncertainty will always be associated with Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) limits and Base (1-%-annual-chance) Flood Elevations (BFEs). Through our modeling procedures, FEMA strives to reduce the uncertainty and to calculate the average of the likely range of BFEs.In other words, the elevations and lines shown on the FIRMs are just as likely to under-predict the true 1-%-annual-chance flood conditions as they are to over-predict them.Please note that flood risk exists even for structures located outside the SFHA. Past floods have exceeded the 1-%-annual-chance flood and future floods may as well. About one in five NFIP claims come from property owners whose structures are located outside the mapped SFHA. 

14.
At what scale are coastal flood studies performed?

Often the coastlines of entire states or an entire area, such as the Great Lakes, are included in one coastal study. Due to the large scale of FEMA's coastal flood studies, many are performed using clusters of high-powered computers to calculate components (e.g. storm surge, wave conditions) of a coastal flood. Such computing power is necessary to capture the physics of water moving over highly detailed topography and bathymetry.The computer models calculate water levels and wave effects in areas that can be several hundred miles across, at hundreds of thousands (or sometimes millions) of points every few seconds during each simulation. Typically, 100 to 200 storms or coastal flood events are simulated for a coastal flood study.

What Is a Tsunami? | NASA Space Place – NASA Science for Kids
It has nine cameras, all pointed in slightly different directions. As the satellite passes overhead, it takes nine pictures of the same spot from different angles.
MISR can see sunlight reflecting off ripples and waves. Satellites that look straight down cannot see these ripples.

This series of MISR pictures was taken over six minutes on December 26, 2004. It shows tsunami waves breaking on the southeast coastline of India. Credit: NASA/GSFC/LaRC/JPL, MISR Team

These images help scientists understand how tsunamis work. The more we learn about tsunamis, the better we can predict where, when and how strong a tsunami will be. That way, people can have enough warning to get away and stay safe.
