Being able to rate and predict landfall of a storm like this can be hard for the National Hurricane Center, but that’s when the Hurricane Hunters take off. The 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron also known as the Hurricane Hunters, fly directly into tropical storms and hurricanes to help save lives.
Despite a fairly mild hurricane season thus far, the Hurricane Hunters have been staying busy.
Due to the overwhelming interest in the Hurricane Hunter lecture series, it will be moved to the Saenger Theater to accommodate the larger audience Sept. 5th, 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
