On the other hand, an intense hurricane can linger over the ocean through its lifecycle, never getting close to land, such asHurricane Lorenzoin 2019. It was the most northeastern Category 5 hurricane ever recorded in the Atlantic Ocean. However, since most of its time was over the ocean, ...
The 2020 Atlantic Hurricane Season was especially active. Thirty named storms forced the NHC to exhaust its regular list of named storms and utilize the Greek alphabet. The season began early when Tropical Storm Arthur formed on May 14th, more than two weeks before the Atlantic hurricane season ...
The United States is currently in the midst of what isexpectedto be a particularly activehurricane season. Anyone who lives in the regions affected by hurricanes will tell you that these storms are dangerous and costly, and climate change is making themmore destructive. But what if there was a...
"This is due to the compensating warmth in other ocean basins." "As we try to understand the future changes in hurricane intensity, we must look beyond changes in Atlantic Ocean temperature. If the Atlantic warms more slowly than the rest of the tropical oceans, we would expect a decrease...
of high hurricane activity during the same period in more southerly areas of the western North Atlantic Ocean basin from the Caribbean to the Gulf Coast. The new data suggest that many powerful storms spawned in the tropical Atlantic Ocean between 250 and 1150 also battered the U.S. East ...
Previous studies have attributed the warming and cooling patterns of North Atlantic ocean temperatures in the 20th century—and associated hurricane activity—to the AMO. But Trenberth, suspecting that global warming was also playing a role, looked beyond the Atlantic to temperature patterns throughout...
The U.S. Virgin Islands (St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Croix) were devastated by back-to-back category-5 hurricanes, Irma and Maria, in the summer of 2017. Hurricane Irma, the strongest storm on record in the open Atlantic region, reached the Virgin Islands on September 6 (Cangialosi...
Several studieshave predictedthat warming waters in the Atlantic Ocean are expected to increase the number of major hurricanes in the coming years. Currently, the United States and neighboring countries are now entering the most active part of thehurricane season. ...
