Atlantic hurricane tracking chart. A tropical cyclone tracking chart is used by those within hurricane-threatened areas to track tropical cyclones worldwide. In the north Atlantic basin, they are known as hurricane tracking charts. New tropical cyclone information is available at least every six hours in the Northern Hemisphere and at least ...
Common developmental patterns seen during tropical cyclone development, and their Dvorak-assigned intensities. The Dvorak technique (developed between 1969 and 1984 by Vernon Dvorak) is a widely used system to estimate tropical cyclone intensity (which includes tropical depression, tropical storm, and hurricane/typhoon/intense tropical cyclone intensities) based solely on visible and infrared ...

NOAA offers free satellite map to survey damage from Hurricane Ian
Tropical cyclone observation has been carried out over the past couple of centuries in various ways. The passage of typhoons, hurricanes, as well as other tropical cyclones have been detected by word of mouth from sailors recently coming to port or by radio transmissions from ships at sea, from sediment deposits in near shore estuaries, to the wiping out of cities near the coastline.
A weather satellite or meteorological satellite is a type of Earth observation satellite that is primarily used to monitor the weather and climate of the Earth. Satellites are mainly of two types: polar orbiting (covering the entire Earth asynchronously) or geostationary (hovering over the same spot on the equator ).
In August, four Black Swift S0 drones were launched into the heart of Hurricane Ernesto from NOAA’s P-3 hurricane hunter. As Black Swift orbited the eye, it dropped as low as 200 feet.
Maps show the areas impacted by storm surge, rainfall levels and more as Helene, once a major hurricane and now a tropical storm, moves inland from Florida's Gulf Coast over Georgia.
