Hurricanes


Movie   ID   Title
The Bermuda High pressure system sits over the Atlantic during summer.   This  visualization first shows a typical Bermuda High system.  Then, it  expands the Bermuda High to show what happened in the summer of 2004 and 2005.   10069   Bermuda High
Hurricane Dean hits the Yucatan Peninsula on August 21, 2007.   3448   Hurricane Dean on August 21, 2007
Hurricane Dean attacks  Jamaica and threatens the Yucatan Peninsula.  The TRMM satellite peers under the clouds to see the rain that powers this intense storm.   3447   Hurricane Dean on August 19, 2007
Tropical Cyclone Larry on March 19, 2006 just before it made landfall in Australia.  Look underneath of the clouds to see the rain that powers the storm. 
Blue represents areas with at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour. Green shows at least 0.5 inches of rain per hour. Yellow is at least 1.0 inches of rain and red is at least 2.0 inches of rain per hour.   3347   Tropical Cyclone Larry on March 19, 2006
TRMM captured 2 very deep Hot Towers in the eyewall of Tropical Storm Wilma.  These towers measured 15-16 km high.   3289   TRMM captures Hot Towers Igniting Hurricane Wilma's Heat Engine
Hurricane Wilma:  October 20, 2005 at 1645Z   3288   Hurricane Wilma on October 20, 2005
Hurricane Wilma attacks the Cayman islands and threatens the Yucatan Pennisula.  Look under the cloud layer to see the rain that powers the storm.   3284   NASA's TRMM Satellite Captures Hurricane Wilma Data on October 20, 2005
Peer through the clouds to see the rainfall that powers Hurricane Wilma.  Blue represents areas where at least 0.25 inches of rain fell per hour.   3283   TRMM Observes Hurricane Wilma on October 19, 2005
Deep convective 15 km clouds (in red) can be seen in the eyewall of Tropical Storm Wilma on October 17, 2005.    3281   Hurricane Wilma's Hot Towers seen by TRMM 10/17/2005 at 1754Z
Tropical Storm Wilma on Monday, October 17, 2005.  The blue region represents where the satellite sees light rainfall.   3280   Hurricane Wilma from TRMM: October 17, 2005
Hurricane Rita on Friday, September 23, 2005.  The blue region represents areas where the storm is dumping at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour.   3263   Hurricane Rita from TRMM: September 23, 2005
Hurricane Rita threatens the gulf coast.  Blue under the clouds represents the energy of the storm, its rain.   3262   Hurricane Rita from TRMM: September 22, 2005
Hurricane Rita on September 21, 2005 at 0909Z.  The storm has a 25 nautical mile eye diameter.  Blue represents the rain structure that is fueling the storm.   3260   Hurricane Rita from TRMM: September 21, 2005
The TRMM spacecraft's Precipation Radar (PR) instrument observed 18 km towers in the eye wall of Hurricane Rita.   3259   Hurricane Rita's Hot Towers
Hurricane Rita on September 20, 2005.  The colored rainbands beneath the clouds depict the rain that fuels the storm.  Blue represents areas where 0.5 inches of rain per hour.  Green represents 1.0 inches per hour.   3258   Hurricane Rita from TRMM: September 20, 2005
Energy-releasing deep convective clouds (to 16 km) in the eyewall of Hurricane Katrina on August 28 occurred while the storm was intensifying to a category 5 classification.    3253   Hurricane Katrina Hot Towers
Hurricane Ophelia, viewed with Terra and Aqua satellites   3246   Hurricane Ophelia
In this video, we explore the latest ways the space agency studies hurricanes and point to the future of this dynamic and exciting field of research.   3228   Hurricanes
Hurricane Katrina slams into Louisiana and Mississippi.   3224   Hurricane Katrina Progression
GOES-12 longwave infrared imagery of Hurricane Katrina from August 26, 2005 through August 30, 2005.   3216   GOES-12 Imagery of Hurricane Katrina: Longwave Infrared Close-up (WMS)
July 10, 2005 16:15 (UTC) In this image, with winds of 217 kilometers per hour (135 mph), Hurricane Dennis was a powerful Category 4 storm just hours away from making landfall.  The eye of the storm was about 90 kilometers (55 miles) south, southeast of Pensacola, Florida, and the storm was moving northwest at about 29 kilometers per hour (18 mph).   3196   Hurricane Dennis
TRMM provides this view of Hurricane Ivan on September 16, 2004, as its eye makes landfall. TRMM lets us see through the clouds. Blue represents areas with at least 0.25 inches of rain per hour.   3172   Hurricane Ivan Rainfall Structure with Cloud Overlay on September 16, 2004
This images shows the hot towers of Hurricane Frances.  The image cuts away the back half of the storm's cloud layer.  The yellow to red stucture is the rain structure of the storm. It has also been cutaway to reveal the eye of the storm.   3145   Hurricane Frances Rain Towers
 Hurricane Isabel images from Sep 18 15:55 UTC, Sep 17 15:09 UTC, Sep 16 17:40 UTC, Sep 15 15:30 UTC, Sep 14 17:55 UTC, Sep 12 15:00 UTC, Sep 11 14:15 UTC, Sep 10 16:40 UTC, and Sep 08 13:45 UTC.   3139   Hurricane Isabel 2003 Progression Images
