Climate

Historical, current and forecast climate conditions around the country.

Climate Analysis
The Maproom explores historical daily precipitation by calculating simple seasonal statistics.
The Maproom explores historical daily temperature by calculating simple seasonal statistics.
Rainfall and temperature time series reconstructed from station observations and remote sensing proxies.
This interface allows users to view rainfall, maximum, minimum and mean temperature monthly climatologies and anomalies.
This interface allows users to view rainfall, maximum, minimum and mean temperature seasonal climatologies, anomalies and probability of exceedance.
This interface allows users to view rainfall, maximum, minimum and mean temperature seasonal trends expressed per year, over the selected period or percent of the average over the selected period.
The Standardized Precipitation Index is an indicator of extreme rainfall events, whether they are drought or excess rainfall.
The Maproom facilitates the exploration of the history of extreme monthly and seasonal rainfall characteristics.
The Maproom facilitates the exploration of the history of extreme monthly and seasonal minimum and maximum temperatures.
This map shows the historical probability (given in percentile) of seasonal average monthly rainfall falling within the upper (wet), middle (normal), or bottom (dry) one-third ("tercile") of the 1981 to 2020 historical distribution in the country given the state of ENSO (El Niño, Neutral, La Niña) during that same season.
This map shows the historical probability (given in percentile) of seasonal average monthly minimum or maximum temperature falling within the upper (hot), middle (normal), or bottom (cold) one-third ("tercile") of the 1961 to 2020 historical distribution in the country given the state of ENSO (El Niño, Neutral, La Niña) during the previous season (e.g. Jan-Mar temperature against Oct-Dec ENSO state).
Climate Monitoring
This Analysis tool allows users to view different presentations of the most recent dekad. The default map on this page displays dekadal (approximately 10-day) rainfall amounts over the country.
The monthly Standardized Precipitation Index is an indicator of extreme rainfall events, whether they are drought or excess rainfall.
The seasonal Standardized Precipitation Index is an indicator of extreme rainfall events, whether they are drought or excess rainfall.
