This came out today. The hurricane hunters need *more* people and resources to collect the invaluable data that is used by NHC to warn the public and also fed into computer models (like HAFS) to make them more accurate. gao.gov/products/gao-2…
(Reposting since the video did something weird earlier). Here's the CNN clip with me talking with @mj_lee that aired earlier this evening. I really appreciated the opportunity to talk about the work we do in NOAA/NWS, and my work with hurricanes. Black Point Marina and Biscayne…
Hey. It’s been a minute. But my friend @AndyHazelton could use your help. Please consider supporting him and his family during this period of uncertainty. Thanks! gofund.me/20b1e25d

One other thing...around 2010, the idea that you could have 70% detection of rapid intensification at 24 hours (as NHC did last year) would have been unheard of. This is legitimately a major scientific achievement brought about by talented scientists and the support of programs…

NHC has released preliminary highlights of our forecast performance in the Atlantic basin for 2024's tropical cyclones. We are still in the process of finalizing analyses of the storms, and the full verification report will be available later this spring. nhc.noaa.gov/pdf/NHC_Verifi…
A cool example of how much progress we've made in hurricane forecasting the last 20 years, thanks to the hard work of lots of folks within NOAA and many collaborating universities and institutions. Check out how far off the NHC forecast for Katrina was compared to the actual…
@gusalaka The $ saved *per hurricane* in reducing the size of the area of unnecessary evacuation (due to improved forecasts) exceeds the entire 18-year budget of HFIP.
Improved hurricane forecast save the US about $5 billion per landfalling storm. That's about as big as the entire NOAA budget. nber.org/digest/202409/…
Lots of recon activity across the Pacific tonight. The NOAA G-IV and two 53 WRS WC-130s have released ~60(!) dropsondes, providing critical model data in advance of the West Coast's strongest AR of the season

Normally expect to see a recon mission out over the Gulf of Mexico to inspect a hurricane. But they're doing it now! The data they collect will help inform upcoming computer-model outputs with regard to this storm approaching the Gulf states.
First winter storm flight of the season complete! These dropsondes will help the models resolve the thermodynamic details of this sloppy mess over the next few days
Here's a condensed version of the landfall map depicting US hurricane landfalls by decade (1850s-2020s)

It's finally done. Over 3 days of hand-plotting 173 years' worth of data. The end result is unbelievable. What an incredible dataset to look at.
What a National Anthem performance by Kai Bui and a flyover by the @NOAA Hurricane Hunters! 🇺🇸
Putting together a presentation and I compiled several of my "stadium effect" photos from Hurricane Hunter flights in the last several years, specifically Michael (2018), Ida (2021), and Helene (2024). It's amazing how much variety there is in hurricane eyes. Michael was probably…
Incoming data from Hurricane Rafael ‼️ Our researchers shared updated flight plans as well as the latest TDR scans showing wind speeds, reflectivity and streamlines. This data has been shared with @NHC_Atlantic to help improve forecasts 🌀
Sonde with 83 knots (~100 mph) at the surface in #Oscar. CBs going up around the eye indicates it may continue to deepen too. Just an astounding surprise RI case that was completely missed by models (yeah HWRF had a (larger) hurricane several days ago but even that was way weaker…
