  • CIMSS Tropical Cyclones CIMSS Tropical Cyclones
    Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies, Space Science and Engineering Center / University of Wisconsin-Madison. The main questions facing tropical cyclone (TC) forecasters are accurately determining the current intensity of the storm, the future intensity of the storm, and where the storm will be in the future. Data obtained from satellites are ideal for helping to provide answers to these questions due to their ability to provide nearly constant and total coverage of the tropics in space and time. The CIMSS Tropical Cyclone webpage helps achieve these goals by providing near real-time imagery, derived atmospheric analysis products, and TC intensity estimates from a variety of different satellite platforms for global analysis of TCs and their surrounding environments. Many of the products from CIMSS are developed specifically for use by TC forecasters worldwide to provide unique information in support of their specific TC forecasting missions. The CIMSS Tropical Cyclone group does not produce forecasts or warnings for any TCs, instead we provide unique information to the organizations and forecasters who do. Madison, Wisconsin

  • How Hurricanes Work | Howstuffworks How Hurricanes Work | Howstuffworks
    Few events on Earth rival the sheer power of a hurricane. Also known as tropical cyclone and typhoons, these fierce storms can churn the seas into a violent topography of 50-foot (15-meter) peaks and valleys, redefine coastlines and reduce whole cities to watery ruin. Some researchers even theorize that the dinosaurs were wiped out by prehistoric hypercanes, a kind of super-hurricane stirred to life by the heat of an asteroid strike. In this article, we'll explore the lifecycle and anatomy of a hurricane, as well as the methods we use to classify and track these ultimate storm systems as they hurtle across the globe.

  • Hurricane Watch Net Hurricane Watch Net
    The Hurricane Watch Net consists of a group of licensed Amateur Radio Operators trained and organized to provide essential communications support to the National Hurricane Center during times of Hurricane emergencies. Our primary mission is to disseminate tropical cyclone advisory information to island communities in the Caribbean, Central America, along the Atlantic seaboard of the U.S., and throughout the Gulf of Mexico coastal areas. We also collect observed or measured weather data from amateur radio operators in the storm affected area as well as any post storm damage, and convey that information to the Hurricane Forecasters in the National Hurricane Center via the amateur radio station in the center (WX4NHC).

  • Hurricanes | Ready.gov Hurricanes | Ready.gov
    Be prepared. Hurricanes are massive storm systems that form over warm ocean waters and move toward land. Potential threats from hurricanes include powerful winds, heavy rainfall, storm surges, coastal and inland flooding, rip currents, tornadoes, and landslides. Ready is a National public service campaign designed to educate and empower the American people to prepare for, respond to and mitigate emergencies, including natural and man-made disasters.

  • Mariner's Guide For Hurricane Awareness In The North Atlantic Basin Mariner's Guide For Hurricane Awareness In The North Atlantic Basin
    From the National Hurricane Center. This guide will hopefully aid the Mariner in understanding the complex structure and behavior of tropical cyclones in the North Atlantic Ocean. Once armed with this knowledge, and the information on where to acquire forecasts and guidance for current tropical cyclones, the mariner can be prepared to "weather the storm" or better yet, avoid these catastrophic events altogether.

  • National Hurricane Center National Hurricane Center
    The National Hurricane Center (NHC) is a component of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) located at Florida International University in Miami, Florida. The NHC mission is to save lives, mitigate property loss, and improve economic efficiency by issuing the best watches, warnings, forecasts, and analyses of hazardous tropical weather and by increasing understanding of these hazards. The NHC vision is to be America's calm, clear, and trusted voice in the eye of the storm and, with its partners, enable communities to be safe from tropical weather threats.
