The Hurricane Weather Research and Forecasting (HWRF) model is a specialized version of the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model and is used to forecast the track and intensity of tropical cyclones. The model was developed by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, the University ...

Systems within ATCF are identified with the basin prefix (AL – North Atlantic Ocean, CP – Central North Pacific Ocean, EP – North-East Pacific Ocean, IO – North Indian Ocean, SH – Southern Hemisphere, SL – South Atlantic Ocean, WP – North-West Pacific Ocean) and then followed by two digit number between 01 and 49 for active tropical cyclones, [5] which becomes incremented with ...
The Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) Model [1] (/ ˈ w ɔːr f /) is a numerical weather prediction (NWP) system designed to serve both atmospheric research and operational forecasting needs, developed in the United States. NWP refers to the simulation and prediction of the atmosphere with a computer model, and WRF is a set of software ...
Location: 740 miles west-southwest of the Cabo Verde Islands. Maximum sustained winds: 50 mph. Movement: west at 12 mph Spaghetti models for Tropical Depression 12 At 11 a.m. EDT, the center of ...
Weather reconnaissance aircraft, such as this WP-3D Orion, provide data that is then used in numerical weather forecasts.. The atmosphere is a fluid.As such, the idea of numerical weather prediction is to sample the state of the fluid at a given time and use the equations of fluid dynamics and thermodynamics to estimate the state of the fluid at some time in the future.
Tropical Storm Gordon: Developed on Sept. 13, but was hindered by wind shear and made minimal intensification. Gordon weakened back to a tropical depression on Sept. 15 before degenerating into a ...
Tropical Storm Sara is "meandering" off the coast of Honduras, bringing heavy rain, “catastrophic” flooding and mudslides to portions of Central America, forecasters say.
