NASA POWER · 1991–2020 · LOCATION SCREENING

Location Climate Intelligence

Load a 30-year climate baseline for your selected location and use it to decide which home-adaptation topics deserve review. The result is a screening context—not a property-level risk forecast.

Screening context only — not a property-level hazard or insurance risk score. A city-level or grid-cell climate baseline cannot determine whether a particular building will flood, burn, suffer wind damage or overheat. Property elevation, drainage, construction, vegetation, urban form and local codes matter.

How to interpret this page

Temperature and mean-wind values come from a location-specific NASA POWER climatology. WattCostLab applies transparent screening thresholds only to help prioritize topics for review. Flood, wildfire, drought and severe-wind hazards still require official local hazard information.

Important limitation

A city-level or grid-cell climate baseline cannot determine whether a particular building will flood, burn, suffer wind damage or overheat. Property elevation, drainage, construction, vegetation, urban form and local codes matter.

Screening methodology

Heat relevance is based on the warmest-month climatological maximum temperature: <25°C lower, 25–29.9°C moderate, 30–34.9°C elevated and ≥35°C strong. These are WattCostLab planning heuristics, not NASA, WMO, insurance or regulatory hazard thresholds.
