Hurricane season in the Atlantic started June 1, and NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) have a crucial view of the storms from space. Satellites like GPM (Precipitation Measurement Missions) can create 3D renderings of hurricanes, which allows researchers to study individual components of storms. Using computer models, scientists can reconstruct entire hurricane seasons to understand how they're changing in a warming wo

From the fastest-forming Category-5 to the most intense hurricane ever recorded, NOAA satellites have seen it all. 🌀 As this year’s hurricane season continues, discover how our eyes in the sky track record-breaking storms to provide critical data and help communities prepare: https://www.nesdis.noaa.gov/news/record-breaking-hurricanes-tracked-noaa-satellites | NOAA Satellite and Information Service
