Future of the Environment

Weather reports could soon be telling us about the role of climate change

Members of the Emergency Operations Committee (COE) monitor the trayectory of Tropical Storm Erika via satellite in Santo Domingo, August 28, 2015. Tropical Storm Erika threatened Haiti and the Dominican Republic with heavy rain and strong winds on Friday as it swirled across the Caribbean and geared up for a run at South Florida, the U.S. National Hurricane Center said. Due to some likely weakening over mountainous areas, Erika was no longer forecast to make U.S. landfall as a hurricane. REUTERS/Ricardo Rojas - GF10000185479
