Queens County
Switch hazards to redraw the map. Colors use one national scale (darker is higher), so you can compare this area to the rest of the country. Risk tiers are based on high-emissions projections that don't change with the scenario selector below.
County fill runs from a 1–10 climate economic-pressure scale. Warmer colors = larger modeled losses relative to how big the local economy is.

Seasonal peaks (hottest-month high and coldest-month low) compared to your selected scenario, with mean daily high and low by month below.
Monthly precipitation, baseline vs projected scenario. The wet and dry seasons are this location's wettest and driest six consecutive months; each row shows the season total with its per-month average, on the same scale as the chart below.
Combined heat and humidity (wet bulb) stress plus days reaching 90°F or warmer. Wet bulb is the temperature at which sweat stops cooling the body effectively.
