The purpose of the Meteorology and Weather Events project is a large-scale initiative that simplifies and standardizes pages for all weather events, improves the information available for past events and works to provide better information for all future events. In addition, the project also improves and simplifies pages for general meteorology.
Weather events include, but are not limited to, hurricanes/tropical cyclones (covered in a separate project), tornadoes, floods, non-tropical storms, winter storms, droughts, extreme heat/cold and lightning/thunderstorms.
Scope of the project edit
1) Standardize all pages for weather events, somewhat modeled after the tropical cyclone pages.
2) Improve the pages for weather features and make more real-world examples.
3) Learn more for historical weather events, and provide more information for current weather systems.
Each individual event type also forms a subproject. Ultimately this could be a parent of each different project.
