The book discusses how to make weather warnings most effective through communication and partnerships. Warnings are the result of a process from weather observations to weather forecasts to hazard forecasts to socio-economic impact forecasts to warning messages to decisions on how to avoid or mitigate the hazard. The book offers a framework across government, private … Continue reading Toward the “Perfect” Weather Warning published

Rob Rogers presents seminar on Advancing the Understanding and Prediction of Tropical Cyclones Using NOAA Aircraft Observations
The primary goal of NOAA/OAR/AOML’s Hurricane Research Division (HRD) is to improve the understanding and prediction of tropical cyclones (TCs). While this improvement can be accomplished from a variety of approaches, a unique capability of HRD is the routine collection and analysis of airborne observations within the tropical cyclone inner core and its atmospheric and … Continue reading Rob Rogers presents seminar on Advancing the Understanding and Prediction of Tropical Cyclones Using NOAA Aircraft Observations
Paper describing large new airborne Doppler radar dataset in tropical cyclones released online in Monthly Weather Review
The study introduces a new database that is freely available and consists of over 900 airborne Doppler radar analyses collected between 1997–2020. We demonstrate the capabilities of the database by identifying how the structure of hurricanes changes depending on the strength of the storm, which provides a foundation for future research avenues and computer model … Continue reading Paper describing large new airborne Doppler radar dataset in tropical cyclones released online in Monthly Weather Review

Study on the impact of mountains on rainfall and intensity of tropical cyclones published in Monthly Weather Review
This paper explores the effect of mountainous terrain on the structure of a tropical cyclone eyewall by using a numerical model to simulate the landfall of a typhoon in the Central Mountain Range (CMR) of Taiwan and its reemergence over water after crossing the CMR. It was found that the presence of the CMR disrupted … Continue reading Study on the impact of mountains on rainfall and intensity of tropical cyclones published in Monthly Weather Review
