World Meteorological Day was officially established in 1961 and has since been observed annually on 23 March. Its primary purpose is to highlight the contribution of national meteorological and hydrological services to the safety and well-being of society.
The theme for 2026 — “Observing Today, Protecting Tomorrow” — draws attention to key issues in meteorology, climate change, and water resources, and calls on society to place greater emphasis on environmental security, sustainable development and early warning systems.
By providing timely forecasts of natural phenomena, meteorological services help protect lives and property. In addition, the open exchange of data supports sustainable development and ecological balance. Global observation systems, in turn, contribute to improving the quality of life worldwide.
World Meteorological Day is not only a recognition of the importance of scientific observation, but also a call for continued public attention to weather, climate, and water resources. Modern monitoring systems play a crucial role in shaping a safer future, ensuring climate security, and promoting sustainable development.
