The NOAA P-3, with HRD scientists on board, has completed an NHC tasked reconnaissance mission into Tropical Storm Isaac. The track of the mission as flown is shown below. The P-3 is enroute back to Lakeland, FL. A look at the P-3 mission in Tropical Storm Isaac this morning Thursday, September 13, 2018 NOAA42: The […]
The NOAA P-3, with HRD scientists on board, is currently flying a National Hurricane Center tasked reconnaissance mission into Tropical Storm Isaac. The track of the mission, so far, is shown below. A look at the ongoing P-3 mission in Tropical Storm Isaac Wednesday, September 12, 2018 NOAA42: The P-3 will fly another NHC-tasked reconnaissance […]
Mr. Balachandran presented a seminar titled “Spatial, temporal, and spectral characteristics of convective asymmetries driving rapid intensity changes in tropical cyclones”. ABSTRACT: Understanding the role of convective asymmetries in influencing a change in tropical cyclone (TC) intensity is a challenging task. The inherent difficulty is because asymmetries can arise from different sources, occur at different […]
Mr. Ahern presented a seminar titled “Observed and Simulated Boundary Layer Structures in the Hurricane Inner-core During Intensity Change”. ABSTRACT: GPS dropwindsonde data from Atlantic basin aircraft reconnaissance missions (Hock and Franklin 1999) between 1998 and 2015 are gathered to construct composites of the hurricane inner-core boundary layer during modes of intensity change. Sounding information […]
The NOAA P-3, with HRD scientists on board, flew a successful research mission into Hurricane Florence yesterday afternoon in support of the Mature Stage Experiment of the Hurricane Field Program – Intensity Forecast Experiment, sampling the conclusion of the rapid intensification event that led to Florence strengthening to a Category 4. Tuesday, September 11, 2018 […]
