The State of the Climate Report is a collection of monthly summaries recapping climate-related occurrences on both a global and national scale. The report is comprised of the following sections:
Welcome to the Tornado Project Online! We are a small company that gathers, compiles, and makes tornado information available to tornado and severe weather enthusiasts, the meteorological community and emergency management officials in the form of tornado books, posters, and videos. There are many sites with tornado data, so we are giving the subject a little different twist, with tornado myths, tornado oddities, personal tornado experiences, tornado chasing, tornado safety, and tornadoes in the past as well as more recent tornadoes. We will always adding new pages and have some unique ideas planned, so come back often and check us out. You'll be glad you blew in!
This site teaches you how to be prepared for disasters and prevent disaster damage. You can also learn what causes disasters, play games, read stories and become a Disaster Action Kid. And don't forget to learn about FEMA. A story about my search for a disaster-proof shell is great reading, too!

NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has detected beams of antimatter launched by thunderstorms. Acting like enormous particle accelerators, the storms can emit gamma-ray flashes, called TGFs, and high-energy electrons and positrons. Scientists now think that most TGFs produce particle beams and antimatter.
If you (or your colleagues) are looking for resources for teaching about the tsunami generated by this morning's earthquake off the coast of Japan, this a good place to look.
"Using technology in the classroom is almost a
necessity for students to be engaged in a well rounded way. Technology can allow
students to view simulations, animations, real weather circumstances and so much
more. Teaching a weather unit using different technologies available on the
internet can really provide an amazing opportunity for both you and your
students."
The EPA's Students for the Environment website offers a number of resources for K-16 learners, including an array of environmental and science based lesson plans, activities and games.
