The Chatham County Center of North Carolina Cooperative Extension will offer a Climate Webinar on April 26, 2021 from 7:00-9:00 p.m EST.
Farmers and gardeners pay close attention to the weather and its effect on both daily activities as well as production quality and yield. They are also interested in climate and how it affects the viability and sustainability of agricultural enterprises.
Rebecca Ward, Assistant State Climatologist for the NC Climate Office, will be the webinar presenter. Rebecca will highlight tools and resources from the NC Climate Office that are useful to farmers and gardeners, and discuss weather patterns and statistics for the region. Participants will be able to ask questions in the Open Q&A session. Rebecca’s bio is included below.

Speaker Bio:
Rebecca’s work at the NC Climate Office centers around delivering climate extension and education to a variety of audiences and working with various sectors in the state to provide climate data and information to support decision making. Recently, she has worked closely with NC State Extension and N.C. Cooperative Extension to deliver climate-focused workshops, and to develop decision support tools that incorporate climate data and expertise to inform planting and management decisions for agricultural crops. Previously, she was an active member of the NC Drought Management Advisory Council, helping to monitor drought conditions across the state, and also worked on several research projects to explore and analyze new drought indicators and indices and systematically develop and evaluate new informational resources to communicate current drought information. She holds BS degrees in Meteorology and Applied Mathematics, a MS in Atmospheric Science, and is currently working toward her PhD in Science Education, all from NC State University.
