Professional users of weather and climate information as well as the general public often do not distinguish between weather and climate. Answering questions about extreme weather events requires information about both the weather and the current and future climate. Therefore, it seems logical to integrate weather and climate information far more than was often done in the past. Unified products could enable better decisions by combining actual and short-term operational insights with long-term context, improving risk management, interpretation, and strategic planning. These products can also increase awareness of the general public of the effects of climate change. This session encourages the submission of papers focusing on the (co-)development of products, experiences, communication strategies, feedback from users, etc. related to the aforementioned issue. We welcome the submission of papers covering topics such as:

• Products developed to integrate weather and climate (change) information, including ‘seamless’ information provision, including, among others, dashboards, attribution of extreme events, the combination of weather forecasts with seasonal-to-decadal predictions and climate scenarios
• Challenges and issues arising in the integration of weather and climate (change) information, related to e.g. co development/user interaction, communication, presentation of uncertainties, interaction between climate and weather services

This session focuses more on the communication aspects of integrating weather and climate information than on the technical aspects.
