The purposes of the IAEM-USA Water & Weather Caucus are:
An ad hoc committee was officially approved on Apr. 15, 2014, and effective January 2015, this committee became the IAEM-USA Climate, Water & Weather Caucus. During the May 2022 IAEM-USA Board Meeting, the caucus was renamed as the IAEM-USA Weather Caucus. Conference calls will be held bi-monthly, with an in-person gathering at the IAEM-USA Annual Conference. The group will consist of two subcommittees: one dedicated to climate change issues, and the other dealing with weather-related concerns. Webinars with climate and weather experts will be held periodically and will be open to all IAEM members.
