Climate Prediction Center
The Climate Prediction Center (CPC) is a division of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in the United States. It focuses on providing forecasts and assessments of climate conditions, including temperature and precipitation patterns. The CPC uses advanced models and data to predict climate variations over weeks, months, and even years.
The center plays a crucial role in monitoring climate phenomena such as El Niño and La Niña, which can significantly impact weather patterns globally. By offering seasonal outlooks and climate assessments, the CPC helps governments, businesses, and communities prepare for potential climate-related challenges.
