Aircraft Captures Windy Details In Hurricane’s Ups And Downs

Part of the difficulty is that the many factors that control intensity particularly the speed direction and spin of air throughout the atmosphere are constantly changing and tricky to measure. Aircraft are able to gather detailed precise measurements of winds in a hurricane that can help researchers understand what is going on inside the storm allowing better forecasts to be made. In July 2005 Hurricane Dennis experienced several periods of rapid intensity fluctuations providing for several excellent opportunities to learn about tropical cyclone behavior. Dennis reached hurricane strength on July 7 2005 in the eastern Caribbean Sea and rapidly strengthened into a category 4 storm before making landfall in Cuba on July 8. After weakening considerably as the storm moved over Cuba Dennis attained category 4 hurricane status again with a pressure drop of 11 millibars in under two hours indicative of rapid intensification. A typical low-pressure system in the United States might intensify that much over the course of an entire day. Flying over Hurricane Dennis with NASA’s ER-2 aircraft and the National ceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NAA) P-3 aircraft scientists gathered data on the storm’s internal structure including the distribution of winds rainfall temperature and moisture… Aircraft are able to gather detailed precise measurements of winds in a hurricane that can help researchers understand what is going on inside the storm allowing better forecasts to be made.

The aircraft information has provided insight into the evolution of a hurricane’s warm inner core; one of the many factors that impact storm development.

20 (SPX) — Hurricanes not only threaten lives and property they also often behave erratically with seemingly endless shifts in intensity and movement that have long challenged forecasters. But new research using sophisticated weather research tools is shedding new light on the nature of these fickle storms. Flying over Hurricane Dennis in July 2005 – a category 4 hurricane – with NASA’s ER-2 aircraft and the National ceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NAA) P-3 aircraft scientists took measurements of the storm’s internal structure. The information is giving clues about the evolution. CPYRIGHT 2006 Space Daily Distributed by United Press International.

But the Black Tornado failed to make critical defensive stops down the stretch and suffered a 75-70 nonconference boys basketball loss in the first round of the Lakeridge Holiday Classic. “We couldn’t get over the hump” said North coach Scott Plankenhorn. “We left guys open and every time we needed a defensive stop they made the shot. In the midst of a late third-quarter run North (1-4) missed a layup that would have tied the game. The Tornado cut its deficit to five late in the fourth period but Tualatin sank 10 of 11 free throws when North was forced to foul… “We left guys open and every time we needed a defensive stop they made the shot.
