Prep Your Climate Coverage: Autumn Extreme Weather

Watch our a one-hour discussion on how to prepare yourself and your newsroom to be responsive to climate-driven extreme weather this autumn

Past event: September 3, 2025

Don’t wait until an extreme weather event strikes to learn how climate change is fueling changes to our weather systems.

As the peak of the Atlantic hurricane activity approaches amid a historic wildfire season, Covering Climate Now and Climate Central cohosted a special webinar highlighting emerging climate attribution research on autumn’s extreme weather events.

This Prep Your Climate Coverage session also explored how fall temperature and severe storm trends are changing, spotlighting how journalists have reported on the human impacts of these events, and offered vetted language to make the climate connection in your own reporting this fall.
