Applied Climate Information System (ACIS) Climate Maps
The Climate Summary Maps are produced using data from the Applied Climate Information System (ACIS). Stations used are from the National Weather Service Cooperative Observer Network (COOP), and the Automated Weather Data Network (AWDN). All near-real-time data are considered preliminary and should be used responsibly. Products include: Precipitation, Departure from Normal Precipitation, Percent of Normal Precipitation, Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI), Temperature, Departure from Temperature, Cooling Degree Days (CDD), Departure from Normal CDD, Heating Degree Days (HDD), and Departure from Normal HDD.		http://hprcc.unl

USGS National Climate Change Viewer (NCCV)
**As of December 31st, 2020, Adobe no longer supports Flash Player. The current version of the USGS National Climate Change Viewer will not function without the Flash Player. The USGS is working on revising the NCCV so that it does not rely on Flash. For questions or access to the NCCV data during the revision of the NCCV, please contact USGS at GSNOROCK_REGCLIM@usgs.gov
ITEP will update the link once the USGS has updated the viewer.		www2.usgs.
