The outcome was that about 10% of counties in the U.S. were placed in a new CZ. In nearly all cases, the shift was to a warmer (lower) CZ, reflecting a general warming of the climate in those areas. The first set of maps below show the old CZs on the left and the new ones on the right. The shaded area across the west in the image on the right highlights the "dry" sub-climates. In most cases, the shift in CZ is relatively subtle. * https://www.jm.com/en/blog/2021/march/understanding-the-iecc-s-new-climate-zone-map/ https://www.jm.com/en/blog/2021/march/understanding-the-iecc...
