Extreme rainfall hammered Boulder, CO with more than 17 inches of precipitation in just six days earlier this year. Salt Lake City's snowpack--a critical water source--is showing troubling changes in its melting rates.  Costly floods and overflowing storm drains plague South Florida's coastal cities, such as Pinecrest.  And storm surge and flooding from Hurricane Sandy caused millions of dollars of damage in Hoboken, N.J.

Take a look at these impacts and others, and it's clear that these four U.S. cities--Boulder, CO.; Salt Lake City, UT; Pinecrest, FL.; and Hoboken, NJ--are at the frontlines of climate change.  But take a closer look and you'll see that they're also at the forefront of local climate action.
