Rainbows are produced when water droplets refract sunlight and according to a new study, climate change will increase opportunities to see rainbows.

Support for groundbreaking studies on torrential rainfall, lightning and severe thunderstorms is the focus of a long-term partnership at UH.

Organized by a UH Mānoa-led committee, the Goldschmidt Conference will draw more than 2,500 international scientists and students with a focus on geochemistry.

Supercell thunderstorms have the greatest likelihood of producing severe weather, including large hail, tornados and strong straight-line winds.

La Nina is supposed to bring copious rain to Hawaii, but not so far this year, with implications for ranchers and water customers.
