- A Spatiotemporal Perspective on the 31 May 2013 Tornado Evacuation in the Oklahoma City Metropolitan Area
A large-scale evacuation of the Oklahoma City metropolitan area occurred on 31 May 2013 as a result of a very large and dangerous tornado that had formed near the town of El Reno and was moving east toward Oklahoma City. A recent study in WCAS seeks to understand the magnitude of this evacuation through the evaluation of traffic volume data and to determine how frequently such evacuations occur in Oklahoma City and other metropolitan areas.

- Global Assessment of the Capability of Satellite Precipitation Products to Retrieve Landslide-Triggering Extreme Rainfall Events
A new article in EI describes the first global assessment of the potential of three high-resolution precipitation datasets, derived from satellite observations, to capture the rainfall characteristics of 20 storms that led to widespread landsliding.

- A Climatology of Snow Squalls in Southern New England 1994–2018
Snow squalls, a sudden burst of heavy snow and gusty winds, can create hazardous road conditions that can lead to traffic jams and crashes. A recent MWR article examines a climatology of non-lake-effect snow squall events in southern New England and investigates the synoptic environment and mesoscale factors conducive to their formation.
