Without the data compiled by the World Meteorological Organization, accurate daily weather forecasts would be impossible. The majority of people base their entire day, from what to wear to what to do, on the forecast.
With modern technology, it is difficult to fathom a time when we did not know the weather forecast. In lieu of a five-day forecast on your weather app, you had to read wind patterns for weeks to determine if you needed a raincoat or a light sweater. On March 23, we celebrate the World Meteorological Organization, an international organization that collects data from around the world to help us comprehend the weather and its impact on our lives.
Without the data compiled by the World Meteorological Organization, accurate daily weather forecasts would be impossible. The majority of people base their entire day, from what to wear to what to do, on the forecast. A world without weather forecasts would have significantly more disastrous picnics.There is more to the World Meteorological Organization than weather. They detect and monitor climate change. This can include fluctuating sea levels, varying temperatures, and rising concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This information is essential for comprehending the climate change crises.Natural disasters are, well, calamitous, but they would be much worse if we were unable to track storms days in advance. We are able to predict massive cyclones with enough time for people to evacuate the area, or at least make the necessary storm preparations, thanks to the WMO.
