El NHC informa sobre el Huracán Lorenzo El huracán Lorenzo, actualmente de categoría 2, había aumentado a fuerza de categoría 5 durante el fin de semana. Lorenzo fue el segundo huracán de categoría 5 de la temporada de huracanes del Atlántico de 2019 y el sexto huracán de este tipo en formarse en la cuenca del Atlántico en poco menos de tres años, después de Matthew, Irma, Maria, Michael y Dorian. El Centro Nacional de Huracanes (NHC) dijo que el campo de viento de Lorenzo es grande, lo que aumenta las posibilidades de que pueda afectar al grupo de islas portuguesas a unas 900 millas al oeste de Portugal. Imagen 1 Imagen 2 Se emitió una alerta de huracán en las Azores para Flores, Corvo, Faial, Pico, Sao Jorge, Graciosa y Terceira con condiciones de huracán (vientos de más de 74 mph) dentro de las 48 horas. También hay una alerta de tormenta tropical publicada para Sao Miguel y Santa María con condiciones de tormenta tropical (vientos de más de 39 mph) dentro de las 48 horas. Las fuertes lluvias de Lorenzo también pueden provocar inundaciones repentinas que amenazan la vida de las personas en las islas Azores desde el martes hasta el miércoles. Se prevé que la tormenta afecte potencialmente a Irlanda de jueves a viernes (imagen 2). The NHC reports on Hurricane Lorenzo Lorenzo, currently a Category 2, had increased to Category 5 strength over the weekend. Lorenzo was the second Category 5 hurricane of the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season and the sixth such top-end hurricane to form in the Atlantic Basin in a little less than three years, following Matthew, Irma, Maria, Michael and Dorian. The National Hurricane Center (NHC) said Lorenzo's wind field is large, increasing the chances it may impact the group of Portuguese islands about 900 miles west of Portugal. A hurricane watch has been issued in the Azores for Flores, Corvo, Faial, Pico, Sao Jorge, Graciosa and Terceira with hurricane conditions (74-plus mph winds) possible within 48 hours. There is also a tropical storm watch posted for Sao Miguel and Santa Maria with tropical storm conditions (39-plus mph winds) possible within 48 hours. Heavy rain from Lorenzo may also lead to life-threatening flash flooding in the Azores late Tuesday into Wednesday. The storm is projected to potentially affect Ireland Thursday into Friday (picture 2). .

Four different quality categories from Wikipedia were chosen, from the total amount of eight, to ensure gathering of a representative sample, for each category there are fifty sentences, the total amount of the sentences altogether is, therefore, two hundred. The sentences will be analysed according to the Firabsian theory of functional sentence perspective in order to discriminate differences both between the quality categories and also within the categories.

Storm Lorenzo October 2019
Storm Lorenzo October 2019 Storm Lorenzo brought strong winds to the west of Ireland on 3 October 2019 before crossing the UK on 4 October. Lorenzo was a mid-Atlantic hurricane but weakened rapidly as it tracked north-east past the Azores toward the west coast of Ireland. The storm followed a spell of unsettled wet weather across England and Wales during late-September. Impacts The persistent wet weather during late September caused some localised flooding problems, while heavy rainfall on 1 October brought severe flooding to the village of Laxey on the east coast of the Isle of Man. Torrential downpours across parts of Wales, the Midlands and southern England on 1 October also brought localised flooding and disruption. Storm Lorenzo tracked across the UK during 3 to 4 October 2019. The storm mainly affected the west of Ireland, with limited impacts across the UK. Weather data The analysis chart at 1800 UTC 30 September 2019 shows fronts pushing slowly north-east, bringing persistent heavy rain to western areas of the UK. The rain-radar images at 1630 UTC 30 September 2019 and 0830 UTC 1 October 2019 show heavy rain across north Wales, northern England, southern Scotland and the Isle of Man. On 1 October, thunderstorms also brought some torrential rainfall across parts of the Midlands, Wales and southern England. The map below shows rainfall totals for the 10-day period 21 to 30 September 2019. The weather was generally mild, wet and unsettled with a succession of low pressure systems bringing significant rainfall to England and Wales.

AOML Keynotes NOAA’S ATLANTIC OCEANOGRAPHIC AND METEOROLOGICAL LABORATORY April-June 2020 AOML is an environmental laboratory of NOAA’s Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research located on Virginia Key in Miami, Florida Gliders Deployed to Obtain Ocean Observations for Hurricane Studies and Forecasts NOAA and US Navy hurricane gliders were deployed in July off the coasts of Puerto Rico, the Gulf of Mexico, and US eastern seaboard to improve the representation of the upper ocean in numerical models used for hurricane forecasts. These sturdy unmanned gliders will measure temperature and salinity down to a half mile below the ocean surface. They operate in hurricane conditions and have even survived shark attacks as they collect and transmit their data via satellite. During the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season, the gliders collected approximately 100,000 ocean profiles. For the 2020 Atlantic hurricane season, NOAA, the US Navy, US Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS), IOOS Regional Associations, and academic partners will conduct approximately 30 glider missions that are expected to obtain 50 percent more ocean profile data AOML researchers and partners with the Cooperative Institute for Marine and compared to previous years. This is possible given enhanced Atmospheric Studies at the University of Miami and CARICOOS deployed 11 support by NOAA and the ongoing and increased collaboration underwater ocean gliders in July to collect data in support of improved hurricane among glider partners. forecast models. Image credit: NOAA/CIMAS/CARICOOS. To prepare for the 2020 hurricane season, AOML scientists trained new glider pilots and technicians from partner institutions crucial for helping NOAA continue the hurricane glider project in in Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic (Maritime Authority, 2020 despite uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Chubb Are You Disaster Ready? White Paper 7.09.20
Are You Disaster-Ready? What You Need to Know Before Hurricane Season Introduction In 2019, Chubb published a White Paper entitled “Staying Ahead of the Storm: Preparing for Upcoming Hurricane Seasons,” which noted that major hurricanes during the two previous years, 2017 and 2018, caused storm-related damage totaling hundreds of billions of dollars, while at the same time outlining the lessons learned for mitigating hurricane losses in the future. The 2019 hurricane season was not nearly as costly as the previous two. However, hurricanes in 2019 did cause above-average property damage for the fourth year in a row1, highlighting the critical importance of applying risk management lessons learned from year to year. 1 Are You Disaster-Ready?

Fall/Winter 2007
St rm Signals Houston/Galveston National Weather Service Office Volume 76 Fall/Winter 2007 Houston/Galveston Meteorologist In Charge - Bill Read Detailed to National Hurricane Center In August, I was given the unique opportunity to serve as Acting Deputy Director of the Tropical Prediction Center/National Hurricane Center (NHC) for an as yet to be determined period of time beginning Labor Day. This came about when the Director position became vacant and Dr. Ed Rappaport, the current Deputy Director, was elevated to Acting Director until such a time as the vacancy can be filled through the competitive process. My duties are to administer some ten actions that arose from the report of a Management Assessment Team which looked at the operation during late June and early July. Operationally, I will oversee the activities of the Hurricane Liaison Team (HLT). Gene Hafele and I have served as meteorologists on the HLT a number of times over the recent past, hence this was a natural task for me to take on. As of this writing (September 17th), I have been on the job only two weeks, but a lot of interesting events have happened. Operationally, NHC covers all systems in the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific, so almost every day this time of year there is either a storm or suspect area requiring our attention. In addition to the well known tropical cyclone warning process, another branch, known as the Tropical Analysis and Forecast Branch, works 24/7 producing forecasts and analyses of the tropical Atlantic and eastern Pacific oceans. Detailed analysis maps are produced and sent to the marine community, as are high seas and offshore wind and seas forecasts, similar to the coastal waters forecast we produce at the local forecast office.
