Hurricane season: How NASA tracks the dangerous storms
Fox News
With an "above-normal" Atlantic Hurricane Season underway, researchers at NASA have partnered with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and other organizations to provide critical forecast data that could potentially save lives.
In August 2020, the agency utilized satellite data to monitor Hurricane Laura, which made landfall along the Louisiana and Texas coastline, bringing winds at speeds of up to 150 mph. NASA's Earth Applied Sciences Disasters Program processed and analyzed that data before, during and after the hurricane made landfall in order to create flood maps, locate damaged areas and assess coastal erosion.More Related News
