Michael Aranda sits in for Hank to talk about the forces of nature that conspired to form Typhoon Haiyan, the strongest tropical cyclone ever measured. Plus, what's neutrino astronomy? You're about to find out, because it's a thing now,...

In the wake of Hurricane Sandy, Hank answers some frequently asked questions about it, and how it got to be so crazy. What is up with this storm? Has this ever happened before? This is global warming right?

Birds can't watch the local weather forecast for early hurricane warnings, so what do they do when one hits

3 Ways to Prevent Hurricanes (Maybe)

You can't understand climate change in pieces, says climate scientist Gavin Schmidt. It's the whole, or it's nothing. In this illuminating talk, he explains how he studies the big picture of climate change with mesmerizing models that...

Hurricane Helene and Milton are painful reminders that our oceans are changing. Warmer ocean waters are acting on higher sea levels, causing catastrophic damage to our coastal communities. And what’s scarier is that the sea level rise...

Science Kids Hurricanes, Tornadoes, Bomb Cyclones, Atmospheric Rivers, Floods and Extreme Weather

The video provides an overview of tornadoes, describing them as fast-spinning columns of air that can cause immense destruction. It...

This video explains the differences between hurricanes, typhoons, and cyclones, detailing how they form and the impact of the Coriolis...

Welcome back to the Fluctus Channel for a feature about the brave pilots who fly into deadly hurricanes to save others' lives. These hurricane hunter pilots traverse hurricanes to garner data that will help predict the intensity and...

Hurricanes are the most powerful and destructive storms on the planet. And 2020 surpassed all expectations, becoming the most active hurricane season on record. Have you ever wondered how they form? Or how climate change is affecting...

Arctic air is warming, causing scientists to worry that melting arctic ice and snow could also lead to a sudden permafrost thaw and release of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) that forms a climate tipping point or feedback loop....

As our seas rise and hurricanes get stronger, it is important that we understand more about storm surge – the most dangerous part of a hurricane. In this episode of Weathered we tell the story behind the best video we’ve ever seen of...

For this episode we wanted to see where we are in terms of “business as usual,” and if we are still headed towards an apocalypse of sorts. Or if, perhaps, all of the technological innovations in renewables and EVs along with new climate...

We try to get to the bottom of this paradox and unravel the role that climate change is truly playing in our increasingly erratic weather and precipitation patterns. We also look at large climatological elements like atmospheric rivers...

Climate Change is increasing the frequency and severity of natural disasters all around the world. And in the United States, more and more people seem to be moving to the places that are projected to be most impacted by climate change,...

Learn about a meteorological phenomenon called the Fujiwara effect, which occurs when two nearby cyclones interact with each other and close the distance between their low pressure areas.

Responding to the challenge of climate change requires understanding more about climate variability and the changes expected. Jim Kinter, director of the Center for Ocean-Land-Atmosphere Studies (COLA), explains how scientists there are...

NASA will fly two unmanned aircraft over Atlantic hurricanes this summer.



The Hurricane and Severe Storm Sentinel, or HS3, mission is a five-year project that first took to the field in 2012 from NASA's Wallops Flight...

On August 29, 2005, Hurricane Katrina made landfall along the Gulf Coast. Five years later, NASA revisits the storm with a short video that shows Katrina as captured by satellites. Before and during the hurricane's landfall, NASA...

The Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission shows the rainfall distribution for two major storms churning in the Atlantic and Caribbean basins. The visualization shows Hurricane Jose as it continues to slowly move...

In this video, we learn about the different scales used to classify storms in various regions around the world. These scales, such as the Saffir Simpson scale and the India Meteorological Department scale, help scientists and researchers...

This video provides an informative overview of hurricanes, explaining their characteristics, formation, and the potential damage they can cause. It also highlights the importance of forecasting and preparedness measures in mitigating the...
