NPF Webinar: The Cost of Violent Weather

Event Date: 
August 11, 2015

Weather is the most durable of news topics, especially when it surprises with extremes. Tornadoes, hurricanes, fires, floods, and even the “slow news” of severe drought create instant story lines. We’ll explore violent weather events and how to track the cost of catastrophic storms in this free webinar featuring Washington Post Weather Editor Jason Samenow and other experts.

Are $1 billion weather disasters becoming more frequent? Who pays? How are satellite maps and imagery useful for journalists? When big weather looms, who should you call and what should you be telling your audience? We’ll talk about climate change and what it means for weather. As always, we’ll take your questions.
