NASA | Ask A Climate Scientist - Extreme Weather and Global Warming

The video discusses the pace of global warming and its impact on extreme weather. While the U.S. has always experienced extreme weather, global warming is causing more frequent and intense heat waves. However, the evidence linking global warming to other extreme weather events like hurricanes and tornadoes is not conclusive. The video emphasizes the need to assess risk tolerance in areas prone to such events. Looking ahead, global warming is expected to accelerate, affecting weather patterns, but the extent of this impact remains uncertain.
