Definitions:
Climate change – long-term change in the average weather patterns that have come to define Earth’s local, regional, and global climates. These changes have a broad range of observed effects.
Climate event – a weather-related extreme event, such as heat waves, freezes, tornadoes, tropical cyclones, heavy downpours, and floods. Climate-related extreme weather events either persist longer than regular weather events, or they emerge from the accumulation of weather/climate events that occur over a longer period of time.
