Extreme Weather: Government Agencies

FEMA’s mission is to support our citizens and first responders to ensure that as a nation we work together to build, sustain and improve our capability to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from and mitigate all hazards.

Mission: Provide weather, water, and climate data, forecasts and warnings for the protection of life and property and enhancement of the national economy.

From daily weather forecasts, severe storm warnings and climate monitoring to fisheries management, coastal restoration and supporting marine commerce, NOAA’s products and services support economic vitality and affect more than one-third of America’s gross domestic product. NOAA’s dedicated scientists use cutting-edge research and high-tech instrumentation to provide citizens, planners, emergency managers and other decision makers with reliable information they need when they need it.

Provide weather, water, and climate data, forecasts and warnings for the protection of life and property and enhancement of the national economy.
