deep learning and artificial intelligence for global tropical storm forecasting
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…
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…
Source Idalia, a Category 3 hurricane, made landfall with a relentless fury, submerging homes, transforming streets into rivers, and leaving a trail of destruction in its wake. As the Southeastern coastal states grappled with its aftermath, the unique path and sheer power of Hurricane Idalia challenged preconceived notions. They underscored the need for continued research…
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…
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…

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…
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,…
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…
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…
