Withstanding the Storms
The scariest thing about a hurricane is not knowing what to expect. Hurricanes are getting stronger due to climate change warming the air and oceans. NASA atmospheric scientist Mara Fuentes says NASA sees deep into hurricanes to better their power, track storms through the night, and precisely map flooding in real time. NASA shares this information with partners like NOAA for weather forecasts and FEME to support emergency responders. Before, during, and after a hurricane, NASA data is put to use by decision makers to make critical decisions.
