Abstract

Future changes in extreme winds, temperatures and lightning could affect numerous aspects of Seattle City Light’s operations and planning. This project uses a new set of projections to estimate changes in 15 metrics of extreme weather related to winds, temperature and lightning. We developed bias-corrected hourly temperature projections for use in load forecasting by City Light staff.
