  • Written Testimony of Mr
    WRITTEN TESTIMONY OF MR. MAX MAYFIELD, DIRECTOR TROPICAL PREDICTION CENTER/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE NATIONAL OCEANIC AND ATMOSPHERIC ADMINISTRATION U. S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE OVERSIGHT HEARING ON “2006 HURRICANE SEASON AND AT-RISK CITIES” BEFORE THE COMMITTEE ON COMMERCE, SCIENCE AND TRANSPORTATION SUBCOMMITTEE ON DISASTER PREVENTION AND PREDICTION UNITED STATES SENATE MAY 24, 2006 Mr. Chairman and Members of the Committee, I am Max Mayfield, Director of the Tropical Prediction Center/National Hurricane Center. The National Hurricane Center is a part of the National Weather Service (NWS), of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in the Department of Commerce. Thank you for inviting me here today, during National Hurricane Preparedness Week, to discuss the outlook for the 2006 Hurricane Season, and to talk about our country’s cities most vulnerable to hurricanes. First, let me express my sincere gratitude to the members of this Committee. Your continued support of NOAA and our hurricane program enables us to make the best forecasts possible, helping ensure the people of our Nation understand the potential impacts from hurricanes and what they can do to protect their life and property. The FY 2006 Hurricane Supplemental Funding approved by Congress is being used as directed, including funding forecast model improvements, and storm surge and inland hurricane forecasting improvements. Thank you again for your support. Everywhere I go I am asked about the forecast for the upcoming hurricane season. People want to know how many hurricanes there will be and if one will hit their area. The media also gives these seasonal forecasts high visibility, and this can have a very positive effect because it raises awareness about the threat from hurricanes and encourages people to prepare for what might happen.

  • Insurance Times: a Decade Later, Power of Andrew Remembered Insurers Weren’T Financially Prepared for Most Expensive Storm in U.S
    Insurance Times: A decade later, power of Andrew remembered Insurers weren’t financially prepared for most expensive storm in U.S. history September 3, 2002, Vol. XXI No. 18 by Adrian Sainz Associated Press MIAMI — On radar, the storm was a spherical mass barreling into the Florida coast, with red, yellow and blue hues warning of deadly wind and torrential rain. That abstract image of Hurricane Andrew's fury was swiftly replaced with a devastation all too real — flattened homes, trees reduced to toothpicks, dazed residents walking through neighborhoods that looked like war zones. “I know what it's like to think that you're going to die, and for God to spare you,'' said John Cosgrove, who huddled in a closet with his wife and children as their home fell apart around them a decade ago. “We lost everything.'' Andrew's winds, 14-foot storm surge, heavy rain and tornadoes spared Miami and Fort Lauderdale. But early on the morning of Aug. 24, 1992, the hurricane roared through Homestead, Florida City and other small cities farther south. Forty-three deaths were blamed on Andrew in the United States, 126,000 homes were destroyed, and 80 percent of the area's farms were wiped out. With $30 billion in damage, it remains the most expensive natural disaster in U.S. history. It also continues to impact South Florida, where it changed lives and everything from insurance regulations and construction codes to the very location of the National Hurricane Center. Last week, scientists ended a decade of debate on the storm's intensity by announcing that what was once thought to a Category 4 storm is now believed to have hit 165 mph — making it only the third Category 5 storm to hit the United States in recorded history.

  • Hurricane Katrina August 23-31, 2005
    Service Assessment Hurricane Katrina August 23-31, 2005 U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS) Silver Spring, Maryland Cover: NOAA-15 satellite image of Hurricane Katrina at 7:47 a.m. Central Daylight Time, August 29, 2005, just east of New Orleans, Louisiana. Service Assessment Hurricane Katrina August 23-31, 2005 June 2006 NOAA’s National Weather Service David L. Johnson Brigadier General, USAF (ret.) Assistant Administrator for Weather Services i Preface The devastation along the Gulf Coast from Hurricane Katrina was staggering. The physical destruction and personal suffering surmounted that of any U.S. weather disaster in recent history. The loss of life and extraordinary damage made Katrina the costliest hurricane in U.S. history and one of the five deadliest hurricanes to ever strike the U.S. However, without NOAA’s National Weather Service forecasts, warnings, communication, outreach, and education, the impacts and loss of life would have been far greater. I chartered a team to assess NWS performance during the event. The Team found the NWS performed exceptionally well in forecasting, warning, communication, preparedness, and post-storm recovery efforts. This is confirmed by the overwhelming positive response received from users and partners of the NWS. Our National Hurricane Center predicted the central Gulf Coast, including the New Orleans metropolitan area, would be directly affected by Katrina as a major hurricane about 56 hours before landfall. Forecasts of Katrina’s path from NHC were better than long-term average errors and better than the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) 2006 goals established for hurricane track forecasts.
