deep learning and artificial intelligence for global tropical storm forecasting
The 2026 hurricane season forecast leverages the IBTrACS database and the new hurricane-net Python package to quantify the timing of major storms worldwide. By integrating data from the North Atlantic through the Eastern and Australian basin, we reveal a peak in Category 3+ activity. This update refines the 2025 findings with perspective. Reproducible Code Peak…
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…
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…
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,…
“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…
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…
