The Storm Events database does not search by National Weather Service Forecast Zone number. However, if the name of the county is contained in the zone name, then you will get results for queries of large scale events by county name. This is not the case for states with very large forecast zones, such as: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, New Mexico, Nevada, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. For large scale events in those states, such as flooding, winter storms, hurricanes and extreme temperatures, it is easier to search by state and/or date instead of by county name.
The Storm Events Database is updated when the data becomes available to NCDC.
The data is updated on a monthly basis and is usually 90-120 days behind the current month
Please read the Storm Events Database FAQ page for more information.

Please do not contact NCDC with requests for information about specific weather events. All of the data is received from the National Weather Service and is made available as soon as possible. If you cannot locate a particular event 120 days after the end of the month of occurrence, contact Stuart Hinson.
