    • Temperature Severity Indicators

    Metadata Updated: March 11, 2026

    The Temperature Severity Indicator data distills observational information of prolonged temperature events in the contiguous United States to inform housing and community development policy, planning, and decision making. The indicators, conveyed as a grid of 1-degree latitude by 1-degree longitude cells, are created from observational data (Berkeley Earth Lab gridded daily maximum and minimum temperature ) and consider the frequency, intensity, and duration of extreme heat and extreme cold weather events that occurred in the US between 1913 and 2012.
