  1. “Strong winds from landfalling #TropicalCyclones cause severe impact to both coastal and inland populations worldwide each year. In the United States alone, tropical cyclones remain the most destructive weather-related disasters, with total losses amounting to US$1.3 trillion—an average of US$22.8 billion per event”: journalofcrr.com/research/04-0

  2. “Estimating ground level winds during a #TropicalCyclone landfall is a time sensitive exercise. The ability to quickly identify areas of highest risk provides critical insight to first responders and for event mitigation activities.

    While national agencies around the world are trusted to provide good estimates of location and intensity at landfall, other key drivers of wind risk, such as the location of maximum wind intensity or the size and shape of the wind field, remain uncertain.”

  3. The article reviews the methods and datasets used in developing each model component, as well as the operational set up required to deploy Metryc in real-time.

  4. In this recent #DiamondOpenAccess #JCRR paper, authors Juner Liu, ETH Zürich and Schroders Capital; Carmen B. Steinmann and David N. Bresch, ETH Zurich; Simona Meiler, Stanford University; Ulrike Lohmann, ETH Zurich; and Benjamin Hohermuth, Schroders Capital, present a simplified #TropicalCyclone model to estimate climate-connected landfall rate changes for North Atlantic hurricanes.

  5. Got a few minutes, so let me post what I do every summer:
    #TropicalStorm #Wutip is the first Western North Pacific #TropicalCyclone this year. As of Wed 8pm China Time it is centered at 16.8°N 111.4°E, about 258km/160mi SE of Sanya, China.
    • It has maximum sustained wind speed of 35kts/40mph/65kph – barely reaching TS strength.
    • It is expected to intensify to Severe Tropical Storm before making landfall in Hainan, China, late Thu night to early Fri morning; it won't reach #Typhoon strength.

  7. I wrote a script to download all the Annual Tropical Cyclone Reports and Best Track Data Archives from the #JTWC website. I am keeping all that public data somewhere safe.

    Just in case something should happen to all that data at some point in the future.

    Just in case.

  8. Tropical cyclone Alfred (Cat 2) looks as if it will centre on Brisbane, with effects from Coffs Harbour in NSW to Bundaberg in Queensland.

  9. Tropical cyclone (Storm 🌪️)

    A tropical cyclone is a rapidly rotating storm system with a low-pressure area, a closed low-level atmospheric circulation, strong winds, and a spiral arrangement of thunderstorms that produce heavy rain and squalls. Depending on its location and strength, a tropical cyclone is called a hurricane, typhoon, tropical storm, cyclonic st...

    🔴⚠️🌀🇲🇿This impressive view of #Landsat 9 on Dec.14, showing the 20km-large eye of Cat.4 #Chido over #Mayotte, explains the total devastation caused by the strongest #TropicalCyclone to hit the islands in the last 90 years,,fearing several hundreds deaths. #Climatemergency

  11. Tropical Cyclone #Chido 🌀in the southwest Indian Ocean is forecast to become hurricane strength tomorrow. A close approach to northern tip of #Madagascar is expected on 13 December. Seen today out on the limb of the GEO-KOMPSAT-2A 🛰️ view #CycloneChido #tropicalcyclone

  12. Tropical Cyclone #Fengal 🌀impacting southern India 🇮🇳as the centre approaches landfall, seen by GEO-KOMPSAT-2A🛰️ today #CycloneFengal #tropicalcyclone

  13. "Hurricane Hunter aircraft data indicates that Tropical Storm Oscar is stronger than previously estimated with maximum sustained winds of at least 70 mph (115 km/h) with higher gusts. The minimum central pressure measured by dropsonde observations has also fallen to 991 mb (29.26 in)."

    well that's a surprise, at least to me.

  15. I've hardly tooted about it at all, but this summer I've been fascinated by all the Saharan dust transport across the (sub)tropical Atlantic.
    Here's a great GIF of it:

  16. #TropicalCyclone #Ernesto may not remain a Cat3 #hurricane as long as predicted, but it might last longer as a Cat1 hurricane, as it moves North, even to #Canada

  17. #TropicalCyclone #Ernesto continues its march through the Caribbean.

    #NHC #NOAA #Atlantic #weather

    Ernesto is passed over #PuertoRico, still punishing it and the #VIPR area, as Cat1 storm. It will develop into a stronger storm, expected to turn into a Major Tropical Cyclone within 30hrs, right before hitting #Bermudas, when it's expected to weaken to a low Cat2, by Friday afternoon.

    The storm will potentially reach all the way into #Canada, #NovaScotia, as a Tropical Storm, by Sunday morning.
