Description: Days that are hotter than the mean seasonal air temperature compromise the capability of the human body to regulate temperature, leading to health complications, illness, and death. This dataset shows Projected average number of days with maximum temperature of 100 ºF or higher in a given year relative to the 2021–2040 period.

Description: Lengthier warm periods exacerbate heat-related illness and stress. This dataset shows Projected average number of consecutive days with temperature of 77 ºF or higher in a given year relative to the 2021–2040 period.

Name: Number of Days with Min Temp >70F (tropical nights)
Display Field:
Type: Raster Layer
Geometry Type: null
Description: So-called “tropical nights” prevent the body from recovering from very hot days, leading to heat-related illness and death. This dataset shows Projected average number of days with temperature of 70 ºF or higher in a given year relative to the 2021–2040 period. Texas Tech University Climate Center/University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; Source contact: Ian Scott-Fleming, Department of Electrical and computer Engineering, Texas Tech University
Description: This is a measure of water inflow by precipitation, with high values corresponding to a high likelihood of flooding owing to depletion of water storage capability in the floodplain and reduced water outflow (due to ground saturation and high river stages). This dataset shows Projected average number in consecutive wet days in a given year relative to the 2021–2040 period. Texas Tech University Climate Center/University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; Source contact: Ian Scott-Fleming, Department of Electrical and computer Engineering, Texas Tech University.
Description: This is a measure of water inflow by precipitation, with high values corresponding to a high likelihood of flooding owing to reduced water outflow by ground infiltration (due to water saturation) and by rivers (due to high stages). This dataset shows Projected average highest 5-day precipitation in millimeters in a given year relative to the 2021–2040 period. Texas Tech University Climate Center/University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; Source contact: Ian Scott-Fleming, Department of Electrical and computer Engineering, Texas Tech University.
Description: High values of this index indicate a high chance of flash floods, owing to water inflow by precipitation overwhelming outflow by ground infiltration and river runoff. This dataset shows Projected average highest 1-day precipitation in millimeters in a given year relative to the 2021–2040 period. Texas Tech University Climate Center/University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign; Source contact: Ian Scott-Fleming, Department of Electrical and computer Engineering, Texas Tech University.
Description: This is a measure of the water (supply by rainfall and snowfall) that is available for societal use during the year. This dataset shows Projected average total annual precipitation in a given year relative to the 2021–2040 period.

Description: Days that are hotter than the mean seasonal air temperature compromise the capability of the human body to regulate temperature, leading to health complications, illness, and death. This dataset shows Projected average number of days with maximum temperature of 100 ºF or higher in a given year relative to the 2041–2060 period.
