Early Warnings for All in focus: Hazard monitoring and forecasting
Grounded in country-led priorities and powered by global partnerships, the report takes a deep dive into the systems that make early warnings possible – from observing networks and data exchange to forecasting, impact-based warnings, and governance. The number of countries with life-saving early warning services has more than doubled in the past ten years, but huge gaps remain and many millions of people lack protection against dangerous weather, which is inflicting an increasing toll on economic assets and vital infrastructure.
Τhe key highlights of this report, include:
- WMO marks 75 years of Science for Action;
- Public safety and economic well-being are threatened by more extreme weather;
- Early Warnings for All initiative makes big progress but gaps remain;
- New WMO report shows advances in observations and forecasts.
