Adverse weather degrades the capacities and operating speeds on roadways, resulting in congestion and productivity loss. Without a solid understanding of the mobility impacts of weather on traffic patterns, freeway operators do not have the estimates of speed and capacity reductions to predict and simulate the impacts of traffic management strategies. Nearly all traffic engineering guidance and...

This paper focuses on the impact of extreme weather on power system outages. Extreme weather condition impacts of interest are listed, including both direct and consequential events. Their impact on power system outages are discussed, concerning both blackouts and component failure. Prospects for estimating weather condition impacts on the frequency of blackouts and on equipment and system fail...
