Abstract: AbstractThe development of an infrared (IR; specifically near 11 ?m) eye probability forecast scheme for tropical cyclones is described. The scheme was developed from an eye detection algorithm that used a linear discriminant ...

Abstract: new and improved method for estimating tropical-cyclone (TC) flight-level winds using globally and routinely available TC information and infrared (IR) satellite imagery is presented. The developmental dataset is composed ...

Abstract: large sample of Atlantic and eastern North Pacific tropical cyclone cases (2005?10) is used to investigate the relationships between lightning activity and intensity changes for storms over water. The lightning data are ...

Abstract: The National Hurricane Center (NHC) Hurricane Probability Program (HPP) was implemented in 1983 to estimate the probability that the center of a tropical cyclone would pass within 60 n mi of a set of specified points out ...

Abstract: he National Hurricane Center Hurricane Probability Program, which estimated the probability of a tropical cyclone passing within a specific distance of a selected set of coastal stations, was replaced by the more general ...
