Information about storm

From how hurricanes form, to the impacts of La Niña and climate change, to an explanation of storm surge and how to get ready - it’s all in our info-packed hour. We’re also answering your questions during our LIVE panel presentation. Feel free to ask away, I will take you down to Galveston’s UTMB to see just what triage the hospital has done in the 15 years since Hurricane Ike--and I was impressed. We’re not talking just band aids here! I especially liked their clever ‘barrier doors’ protecting the elevator banks. I find out what UTMB is doing to prepare for storms The Texas Medical Center is ever-ready against winds, floods and storm surge--the latter which Justin Stapleton will explain in depth. Speaking of floods, KPRC 2 consumer investigator Amy Davis breaks down changes to flood insurance. You may have noticed your rates rising like a storm tide, and you’re not alone. Amy compares the insurance increases across neighborhoods and you may be surprised to learn FEMA raised rates for many homes that have never flooded and lowered rates for homes that have. What’s going on?? Amy Davis talks Flood Insurance Anthony Yanez explores the Hurricane Hunter aircrafts, and all the high tech equipment scanning storms from all angles. Anthony also interviews the command pilot and the load master – who has one job, to drop about 20 of the 16″ dropsondes from the W-C130-J. Sounds heavy!

Know about the development of a thunderstorm prediction model that can run on a laptop Thunderstorms are known to occur in almost every region of the world, though they are rare in polar regions and infrequent at latitudes higher than 50° N and 50° S. The temperate and tropical regions of the world, therefore, are the most prone to thunderstorms. In the

Because of the The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said there’s a 40% chance of a near-normal season, a 30% chance of an above-average season (more storms than usual) and a 30% chance of a below-normal season. NOAA predicts that 12 to 17 named storms will form, of which five to nine will become hurricanes. What about the West Coast? An average season sees 14 named storms, with seven becoming hurricanes. What is the definition of a hurricane? A hurricane is one name for a tropical cyclone. A tropical cyclone is "a generic term for a low-pressure system that formed over tropical waters with thunderstorm activity near the center of its closed, cyclonic winds," NOAA said. "Tropical cyclones derive their energy from vertical temperature differences, are symmetrica...
