Cyclone Freddy was a very fierce, surprisingly chronic, high-octane, and lethal storm that made its way across the Southern part of the Indian Ocean for almost six weeks in March and February 2023. Satellite image of cyclone Freddy generated via Stability-AI What Determined the Intensity of Cyclone Freddy? To determine if Tropical Cyclone Freddy has…
The original vision was formed in early 2017. Since then, fluids has excelled at the weather and atmospheric sciences including innovations in deep learning, artificial intelligence, and tropical storm forecasting.
We are excited to present our interactive global storm tracking map, available at https://fluids.ai/map/. This platform is built to provide real-time tracking of global storms, including Hurricane Milton, a Category 5 storm that recently made landfall as a Category 3 storm near Florida’s west coast. Using advanced satellite imagery and data feeds, users can monitor…
Overview of the 2024 Hurricane Season As the 2024 Atlantic hurricane season approaches its conclusion, it is essential to assess the predictions made at the beginning of the season against the actual outcomes. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) forecasted an above-normal season with an 85% probability, anticipating between 17 to 25 named storms,…
Flooding in Pakistan: Death Toll Rises Severe rainfall triggered the most devastating flood in Pakistan’s history. It swept through the villages, collapsed homes, and killed approximately 1,500 people out of which 552 were children. The loss of land and life is incomparable. Recent news declared almost 8 million people were forced to relocate for the…

Visualising the intensity and progression of hurricanes on digital platforms has seen an impressive upgrade. A diligent researcher has created a set of distinctive icons that represent the categories of the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale. They are hosted on a GitHub repository called hurricane-net and can be found here. These icons, interestingly, are not just…
