10/24/16: Extreme Weather in the U.S.- NEW NOAA REGIONAL IMPACT MAPS

Severe storms resources, like tornado preparedness and supercells can be also found on that website. Very useful information to prepare/educate the population.

NOAA’s National Climatic Data Center provides a variety of information detailing all these extreme weather events. Very recently they have launched the regional climate impacts maps, like the one below for the ‘Pacific Region’.
