From storms to heat waves, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory scientists predict weather events could become more extreme in the future.
They expect"once-in-a-century" storms could happen more than once in a lifetime. Scientists said intense weather could impact certain parts of the Bay Area much harder than others.
Berkeley Lab scientists forecast that by the end of this century, heatwaves in San Francisco could get four degrees hotter than the end of the last century. San Jose could get six degrees warmer. In Livermore and in Santa Rosa, heat waves could get eight degrees hotter. By the end of this century, heatwaves in Oakland could skyrocket, getting nine degrees hotter compared to the end of the 1990s.
"Bay Area viewers can expect extreme weather patterns that a number of the very extreme weather patterns some of the big atmospheric rivers that we've been seeing over the past winter, that those are going to get supercharged," said Feldman. For Feldman, his work is his passion. He's a true atmospheric scientist, devoting his career to studying, understanding, and ultimately protecting our planet.
