Climate and Weather Resources
Below are a few helpful websites to see current and past Climate and Weather Information.
Drought Information:
https://www.drought.gov/states/virginia/county/carroll
This Link I found to be very helpful especially with the current drought we have been in.
It shows data on public health/air quality, water supply, agriculture, precipitation conditions and
temperature conditions. Some data was shown over 7 days to 60 days. This helps people to see if
there is improvement in the conditions or not.
Average Temperature and Palmer Index information:
https://www.ncei.noaa.gov/access/monitoring/climate-at-a-glance/county/time-series/VA
This website is helpful to compare many years of climate and weather of Carroll County.
For example, when you look up average temperature in July in Carroll County you can plot a graph
all the way from 1895 to today. This can help show variability and help people see what the normal
temperature to expect is even thought some years might be hotter or cooler than others.

This link allows you to look and see if and where any major, minor, or moderate floods happened in
your locality. This can help people especially when it comes to housing and knowing which river areas
might they need to be cautious around.
