Severe Thunderstorm Warning Hail Criteria Becomes More Meaningful 2009 Hurricane Season Summary Sea Fog: A Simple Tutorial NWS Ruskin Supports the American Cancer Society by Participating in Relay For Life NWS Ruskin Gives Back to the Community El Niño to Increase Possibility of Hazardous Weather in Florida this Winter NWS Ruskin to Host an Open House “Disponible en Español”...Spanish Services Keep on Growing SPECIAL FEATURE: January 2010 Cold Snap Severe Thunderstorm Warning Hail Criteria Becomes More Meaningful By: Daniel Noah Since January 5, 2010, Severe Thunderstorm Warnings across the nation are now issued for 1 inch or larger hail instead of the previous 3/4 inch or larger size hail. The wind criteria of 58 MPH (50 knots) did not change. Scientific research increasingly indicates that significant damage to real property does not occur until hail stones reach at least 1 inch in diameter. The results of these peer-reviewed articles are supported by damage reports from thousands of archived storm events. Many in the media and the emergency management community were concerned that too many Severe Thunderstorm Warnings were being issued for marginal events and these warnings were desensitizing the public. The new 1 inch criteria will reduce the number of Severe Thunderstorm Warnings each season and will warn for a genuine risk of damage and a corresponding need to take protective action. The 15 counties in west central and southwest Florida received 109 reports of 3/4 inch hail or larger over the past two years, and of these, only 35 hail reports were 1 inch or larger.

    GETTY PREZIOSO IMAGES/JOSEPH The Compound Benefits of Greening School Infrastructure By Elise Gout, Jamil Modaffari, and Kevin DeGood May 2021 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Contents 1 Introduction and summary 3 The need for federal investment in school infrastructure 5 Immediate upgrades to secure student health 6 Long-term upgrades to support student learning and school resilience 8 Schools as models for decarbonization 10 Recommendations 12 Conclusion 13 About the authors and acknowledgements 14 Endnotes Introduction and summary Across the country, more and more students are returning to their classrooms after what has been, for some, nearly a year of online learning. The school closures brought on by COVID-19 have underscored how critical the physical environment is to stu- dent well-being and educational success. And yet, for large populations of students— particularly those in communities with fewer resources and in Black, Latino, and other communities of color1—going back to school means going back to broken-down facilities with poor insulation and outdated ventilation systems.2 The deficiencies of school infrastructure have been exposed by the compounding crises of the COVID-19 pandemic and the record-breaking extreme weather events exacerbated by climate change. Last year, schools in Oregon burned in the worst wildfire season to date,3 and schools in Florida flooded after Tropical Storm Eta.4 In February, an extreme cold snap caused schools in Texas to freeze.5 According to a 2020 report by the Government Accountability Office (GAO), 54 percent of U.S. school districts—a bulk of which primarily serve students of color—need to update or completely replace multiple building systems in their schools.6 Without the funds to do so, these districts are increasingly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change and the exorbitant costs of rebuilding after it is too late.
