        Extreme Weather and Climate Events is a web page at the National 
Climatic Data Center (NCDC). Extreme Weather and Climate Events web site links 
to some of the more interesting NCDC web pages. Links are provided to US 
Hurricanes, Heavy Precipitation, Temperature Extremes and Drought, US 
Tornadoes, Worldwide Weather and Climate Events, Historical Global Extremes, 
Satellite Images, US Radar Composites, Climatic Data, US Local Storm Reports, 
Climate Monitoring, El Nino/La Nina, Global Climate Change, and Billion Dollar 
Weather Disasters. Tabular data, maps, radar images, technical papers, and 
other work are presented in these web pages.
      </abstract>
      <purpose>
        To make a wide range of climatic data available to researchers and the 
public.
