Tropical Storm Lee is predicted to become Hurricane Lee in the next few days. Not all hurrincaes are a result of Climate Change but warming ocean temperatures are the proverbial fuel to the fire. It is imperative that we meet this challenge as hurricanes will become more frequent, more intense and less predictable as ocean temperatures rise. The Hurricane Hunter aircraft may be out of service before 2030. Tropical Weather Analytics, Inc. Hurrince Hunter Satellites will provide unique measurements, revisit rate and resolution to improve hurricane forecasts all across the globe by 2025.

🌀 Is an above average Atlantic hurricane season brewing for 2024? 🌀 The latest analysis examines several key factors that could line up for an active tropics season this year, including abnormally warm sea surface temperatures across the main development region, higher moisture content indicated by precipitation anomaly forecasts, and the likelihood of a moderate to strong La Niña event. What are the implications on your fleet operations throughout this season?

To properly plan and prepare for extreme weather conditions it’s important to understand the language used in current weather forecasting and reporting. It's a good time to review ahead of hurricane and wildfire seasons.

Here's a great resource from Colorado State University's Tropical Weather & Climate Research. They list the likelihood of states AND counties to have a named storm or #hurricane this year. They are using a "new methodology for calculating the impacts of tropical cyclones for each state and county/parish along the Gulf and East Coasts, tropical cyclone-prone provinces of Canada, Atlantic-facing states of coastal Mexico, islands in the Caribbean and countries in Central America." https://lnkd.in/g4SVCeZz

🌊 Did You Know? 5 Interesting Facts About Hurricanes Hurricanes vs. Typhoons: 🌪️ Hurricanes, typhoons, and cyclones are the same weather phenomenon, differing only by region. Hurricanes form in the Atlantic and Northeast Pacific, while typhoons form in the Northwest Pacific. Naming the Storm: 🌊 A tropical storm is named once its sustained winds reach 39 mph (34 knots). It is the World Meteorological Organization that predetermines these names. Seasonal Peaks: 📆 The Atlantic hurricane season runs from June 1 to November 30, peaking from August to October. This period sees the highest ocean temperatures and conducive atmospheric conditions. Size Matters: 🌍 Hurricanes can span several hundred kilometers and often feature a calm, cloud-free "eye" surrounded by a violent eye wall. Hurricane Ian's Impact: 📹 Hurricane Ian (2022) showcased the unpredictability and strength of these storms. After forming a tropical depression, it rapidly intensified, causing widespread devastation from Florida to the Carolinas. Check out the video below for a visual of its formation and path.

Hurricane Beryl, the first hurricane and second named storm of the 2024 Atlantic season, has made history by becoming one of only two Category 5 hurricanes to form as early as July. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has forecasted an above-normal hurricane season, predicting 5 to 8 more storms than in 2023. NOAA attributes this heightened storm activity to the transition from El Niño to La Niña, but what exactly are El Niño and La Niña, and how do they influence hurricane formation? To learn more about how La Niña is contributing to the increase in hurricanes, read our latest blog below. #Hurricane #AtlantcHurricane #Beryl #Risk https://bit.ly/3XYcBbK

Did you know?? 🤔 Hurricane facts can be found below and more on our website!

Did you know a hurricane's name is selected from 6 lists compiled by the World Meteorological Organization? Each list includes 21 names starting with each letter of the alphabet, excluding Q, U, X, Y, and Z. The lists have a balance of genders and respect societal sensitivities, while the names themselves must be instantly recognizable and either English, Spanish, or French. Check the lists! Will there ever be a hurricane named after you? #HurricaneSeason
