The National Climatic Data Center put together this map of the biggest climate events and anomalies to hit in 2013, the fourth warmest year on record. It includes large-scale droughts, powerful tropical storms, the melting of large swaths of sea ice, and some of the most dangerous cyclone seasons recorded.
