Hurricane path prediction seems straightforward, until it is not – that’s because hurricanes can encounter atmospheric effects that turn their paths into erratic nonsense.

Do you ever think of what could cause the next big extinction? How about a super massive tropical storm that sweeps over continents? Hey, it could happen! Check out this SciShow Dose to see how a hypercane would be possible.

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,...

3 Ways to Prevent Hurricanes (Maybe)

Jupiter's storms cover the planet, but the ones at the planet’s poles have mystified astronomers for years: why haven’t they merged together yet?

Hurricanes, cyclones and typhoons are formed due to violent storms that originate over oceans and seas and move towards land, potentially causing extensive damage to both life and property. But there is a very interesting thing related...

Hurricanes are renowned for their destructive power and the devastation they leave behind. But how do they form and where? Earth Science - Weather - Learning Points. Hurricanes are tropical storms with constant wind speeds. Hurricanes...

Hurricane Katrina describes how geography affects climate and weather by examining Hurricane Katrina as an example.

The Guardian's environment editor, Damian Carrington, examines exactly how the climate crisis is fuelling devastating floods – and what we can do to help protect ourselves and our planet

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.

The BBC reports that a new study in the journal Nature Geoscience argues that if the planet’s average temperature keeps rising, hurricanes and typhoons will start to move farther northward and southward, entering the world’s most...

Explore the fascinating and destructive phenomenon of tornadoes. From how they form to the rating scales used to measure their strength, we learn about the science behind these powerful storms. We also discuss important safety measures...

Two days before Hurricane Maria devastated Puerto Rico, the NASA-Japan Global Precipitation Measurement Core Observatory satellite captured a 3-D view of the storm. At the time...

Climate patterns and storms on Jupiter can have striking similarities to those on Earth. One such pattern is a four-year temperature cycle in the Jovian upper atmosphere called the QQO.



This cycle has a little...

NASA's Global Precipitation Measurement mission, or GPM, a joint NASA/JAXA mission, will provide rainfall data on storms and hurricanes like Irene that move out of the tropics. The data will be available when the GPM Core Observatory...

This video is answering the question of how are hurricanes formed.

The NASA/NOAA GOES Project is releasing a comprehensive video of the 2009 hurricane season to kick off the Atlantic Ocean hurricane season that starts June 1.<br/>

How do scientists mimic the physics of a hurricane on the surface of a bubble? What other types of crazy research are bubbles used for? Learn how to create colorful vortices on a bubble in your kitchen!

A large cyclone that crossed the Arctic in December 2015 brought so much heat and humidity to this otherwise frigid environment that it thinned and shrunk the sea ice cover during a time when the ice should have been...

For their size and impact, hurricanes are often called the greatest storms on Earth. They expend a tremendous amount of energy through the water cycle, and through wind, to maintain the balance of the atmosphere. Known by different names...
