Description:Columbia University’s International Research Institute for Climate and Society (IRI) and its Initiative on Extreme Weather and Climate, together with the World Weather Research Program (WWRP) and World Climate Research Program (WCRP)’s Sub-Seasonal to Seasonal Prediction Project (S2S), with support from NOAA’s Modeling, Analysis, Predictions and Projections (MAPP) program and involvement of its S2S Prediction Task Force, held a 2-day workshop on December 6–7, 2016 at the Columbia University Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory campus in Palisades, New York. The workshop targeted all in academia, government, and the private sector with an interest in understanding the latest science behind S2S predictability of extreme weather and climate and in developing early warning products. Some 115 people attended in person, with another 150 joining the online conference livestream. The workshop consisted of 23 talks, 33 posters, and discussion sessions, with the goal of sharing the latest research on extremes using S2S models, the WWRP/WCRP S2S research initiative and data archive, operational S2S forecasting, private sector forecasts, sources of S2S predictability of weather extremes, and risk management perspectives. These talks are briefly summarized below, and a list of the presenters and presentation titles is provided in Table 1. Several of the talks have been developed into papers appearing in this special issue. The workshop program can be accessed at http://iri.columbia.edu/s2s-extremes-workshop-2016/ where recorded videos of the presentations can be accessed.
