Paper on how the region near the ocean surface impacts hurricane forecasts released online in Monthly Weather Review
Summary: Forecasters and researchers use the Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting (HWRF) model to forecast where a hurricane will go, how strong it will be, how large it will be, and where the strongest winds are. This paper looks … Continue reading

Two-part paper on the intensification of Hurricane Edouard published in Monthly Weather Review
Summary: Hurricane Edouard (2014) is examined using radar onboard NOAA P-3 aircraft that flew the storm. Two periods are shown, one when the storm was intensifying to a major hurricane and the other when the storm was weakening. The location … Continue reading
Paper on variations in the surface winds in tropical cyclones released online in Geophysical Research Letters
Summary: Special radars on satellites, known as scatterometers, use the relationship between the conditions on the ocean surface and surface wind speed and direction to provide a view of the surface winds in and around tropical cyclones (hurricanes in … Continue reading
Paper on the intensification of Hurricane Earl (2010) in the HWRF model released online in the Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society

Paper on the Coyote unmanned aircraft system in Hurricane Edouard published in Earth and Space Science
This was the first successful launch of an unmanned aircraft system into a mature hurricane from a Hurricane Hunter aircraft. This so-called Coyote is a 13-pound drone with a 5-foot wingspan that measures pressure, temperature, humidity, and wind speed and … Continue reading

15th Anniversary of CAMEX-4
On August 16, 2001, NASA began the fourth in its Convection And Moisture EXperiment (CAMEX) field programs. The CAMEX campaigns were designed to examine the moisture budgets and convective structure of tropical cyclones, and were carried out in conjunction with HRD’s … Continue reading
65th Anniversary of Typhoon Marge flight
On August 15, 1951, Robert Simpson flew aboard an instrumented B-29 into the eye of Typhoon Marge. Marge was a large tropical cyclone with maximum sustained winds estimated at 115 mph (185 km/hr) during the flight. Simpson had flown into … Continue reading
