Hurricanes


Movie   ID   Title
The Bermuda High pressure system sits over the Atlantic during summer.   This  visualization first shows a typical Bermuda High system.  Then, it  expands the Bermuda High to show what happened in the summer of 2004 and 2005.   10069   Bermuda High
Hurricane Ike threatens the entire Gulf Coast on September 12, 2008. The blue region represents areas where the storm is dumping at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour and the green region is raining 0.5 inches of inches per hour. Yellow is 1 inch of rain per hour and red is 2 inches of rain per hour.   3560   Hurricane Ike Attacks the Gulf Coast on September 12, 2008
Hurricane Ike strengthens in the Gulf. TRMM observed this 17 km tower.   3559   Hurricane Ike on September 10, 2008 at 1745 UTC
NASA's TRMM satellite peers beneath the clouds to capture this view of Hurricane Ike. The 12 km towers in the outer band, shown in red, lead scientists to believe that the inner eye is eroding as the outer bands are becoming better defined. This could limit rapid intensity development in the very near term.   3558   Hurricane Ike Strengthens in the Gulf of Mexico on September 10, 2008
Hurricane Ike slams into Cuba at 7:04 EDT on September 8, 2008.   3557   Hurricane Ike Slams Cuba on September 8, 2008
Notice the rainbands that power the storm. Hurricane force winds extended outward up to 45 miles from the center of this storm and tropical storm force winds extended outward up to 140 miles.   3553   Hurricane Ike on September 4, 2008
TRMM's Precipitation Radar (PR) instrument observed this 17 kilometer tower in the eatern eyewall as Tropical Storm Hanna was intensifying to a category 1 hurricane on September 1, 2008.   3550   Tropical Storm Hanna's Towering Thunderclouds
NASA's Terra satellite captures this view of Hurricane Gustav's eye. At this time the storm had weakened from a category 4 to a category 3 with winds of 115 mph and a pressure reading of 960.   3546   Examining Hurricane Gustav's Cloud Structure
This animation shows the very dangerous Hurricane Gustav on August 31, 2008.   3545   Hurricane Gustav on August 31, 2008
Hurricane Gustav weakened as it stalled over Haiti. The storm has already killed 22 people in Haiti and the Dominican Republic.   3543   Hurricane Gustav on August 27, 2008
Hurricane Gustav slams into Haiti. The blue region represents areas where the storm is dumping at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour and the green region is raining 0.5 inches of inches per hour.   3542   Hurricane Gustav Slams Haiti
Tropical Storm Fay stalled over Eastern Florida dumping over 24 inches of rain. The blue region represents areas where the storm is dumping at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour and the green region is raining 0.5 inches of inches per hour.   3541   Tropical Storm Fay Inundates Florida
Tropical Storm Eduoard on August 5, 2008. Peer through the clouds to see the storms structure. The blue region represents areas where the storm is dumping at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour and the green region is raining 0.5 inches of inches per hour.   3536   Tropical Storm Edouard
Hurricane Dean hits the Yucatan Peninsula on August 21, 2007.   3448   Hurricane Dean on August 21, 2007
Hurricane Dean attacks  Jamaica and threatens the Yucatan Peninsula.  The TRMM satellite peers under the clouds to see the rain that powers this intense storm.   3447   Hurricane Dean on August 19, 2007
Tropical Cyclone Larry on March 19, 2006 just before it made landfall in Australia.  Look underneath of the clouds to see the rain that powers the storm. 
Blue represents areas with at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour. Green shows at least 0.5 inches of rain per hour. Yellow is at least 1.0 inches of rain and red is at least 2.0 inches of rain per hour.   3347   Tropical Cyclone Larry on March 19, 2006
TRMM captured 2 very deep Hot Towers in the eyewall of Tropical Storm Wilma.  These towers measured 15-16 km high.   3289   TRMM captures Hot Towers Igniting Hurricane Wilma's Heat Engine
Hurricane Wilma:  October 20, 2005 at 1645Z   3288   Hurricane Wilma on October 20, 2005
Hurricane Wilma attacks the Cayman islands and threatens the Yucatan Pennisula.  Look under the cloud layer to see the rain that powers the storm.   3284   NASA's TRMM Satellite Captures Hurricane Wilma Data on October 20, 2005
Peer through the clouds to see the rainfall that powers Hurricane Wilma.  Blue represents areas where at least 0.25 inches of rain fell per hour.   3283   TRMM Observes Hurricane Wilma on October 19, 2005
Deep convective 15 km clouds (in red) can be seen in the eyewall of Tropical Storm Wilma on October 17, 2005.    3281   Hurricane Wilma's Hot Towers seen by TRMM 10/17/2005 at 1754Z
Tropical Storm Wilma on Monday, October 17, 2005.  The blue region represents where the satellite sees light rainfall.   3280   Hurricane Wilma from TRMM: October 17, 2005
Hurricane Rita on Friday, September 23, 2005.  The blue region represents areas where the storm is dumping at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour.   3263   Hurricane Rita from TRMM: September 23, 2005
Hurricane Rita threatens the gulf coast.  Blue under the clouds represents the energy of the storm, its rain.   3262   Hurricane Rita from TRMM: September 22, 2005
Hurricane Rita on September 21, 2005 at 0909Z.  The storm has a 25 nautical mile eye diameter.  Blue represents the rain structure that is fueling the storm.   3260   Hurricane Rita from TRMM: September 21, 2005
