Hurricane Ian started as a Category 3 storm and soon gained frequency to turn into a Category 4 hurricane with winds raging at 150mph, causing massive damage in Florida. The hurricane gained its strength after crossing the Gulf of Mexico and entered Florida with a speed of 130mph, turning into a Category 4 storm. Recently,…
Waterlogging and floods are menacing nuisances in California that continue to persist. Although atmospheric rivers may appear like something out of a travelogue, they can actually do a lot of harm. Long waves that travel in the skies like rivers do on the ground arise when water dissipates into the atmosphere and is carried by…
Impact of Hurricane Ian on Florida Hurricane Ian was a Category 4 Atlantic hurricane that uprooted Florida from the core with winds raging up to 150mph. This catastrophic hurricane hit Florida economically by US$28-63 billion. From electricity outages that lasted for countless hours to 126 fatalities in Florida, the aftermath of Ian is becoming more…
The 2022 Atlantic hurricane season started on June 1st and ended November 30th. Fourteen storms were named, out of which 2 were major hurricanes. The NOAA forecast predicted 14 to 21 names of storms with an average speed of 39 mph or higher. Out of them, 6 to 10 were predicted to be potentially massive…
“The No. 1 killer in all of these storms is water” Deanne Criswell, Federal Emergency Management Agency’s administrator The 2023 Atlantic Hurricane Season was devastating, with peak winds of 145 knots (166.86 mph), based on NOAA’s HURDAT2 data. The analysis utilizes the Saffir-Simpson scale to categorize storms, with Category 5 hurricanes like Lee representing the…
Hurricane Fiona Slams: Devastation Increases Hurricane Fiona has shifted its course to Turks and Caicos islands after devastating Puerto Rico and the Dominican Republic. Records highlight that there was a downpour of approximately 30 inches in Puerto Rico, courtesy of Fiona. It began as a Category 2 storm followed by torrid rainfall and turbulent winds…
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.
In the vanguard of meteorological innovation, ‘hurricane-tts‘ emerges as a monumental integration of advanced technologies, setting new standards in delivering critical storm alerts. At its core, the project harnesses the massively multilingual Text-to-Speech capabilities from Facebook AI Research (FAIR), transforming weather data into spoken word with unparalleled linguistic diversity. Coupled with the analytical prowess of…
There is an effort to improve women’s ability to access technological advancements, knowledge, scientific literacy, and technology-related training, as well as to uplift the stature of female researchers and technologists at the international, national, and local levels. Ensuring all women have equitable access to scientific and technical knowledge is essential. The priority should be to…
