This season has been a busy one for the National Hurricane Center! This week we are pleased to have someone who knows that all too well - Taylor Trogdon, a Senior Scientist/Meteorologist with the NHC Storm Surge Unit. The Storm Surge Unit is a small group of meteorologists and oceanographers specializing in predicting storm surge heights associated with landfalling tropical systems, primarily using their SLOSH model. Their efforts include developing highly-detailed mapping projections that support the issuance of Storm Surge Watches and Warnings for U.S. coastlines, which just recently became part of the suite of operational watches and warnings issued by the NWS. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/carolinaweather/message

NOAA’s Joint Polar Satellite System (JPSS) provides global observations that serve as the backbone of both short- and long-term forecasts, including those that help us predict and prepare for severe weather events. Each satellite carries five state-of-the-art instruments, including the Advanced Technology Microwave Sounder (ATMS), the Cross-Track Infrared Sounder (CrIS), the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS), the Ozone Mapping and Profiler Suite (OMPS) and an instrument to measure the Earth’s energy budget.JPSS satellites circle the Earth from pole-to-pole and cross the equator about 14 times daily in the afternoon orbit to provide full global coverage twice a day. In doing so, they provide the majority of data that informs numerical weather forecasting in the U.S. and deliver critical observations during severe weather events like hurricanes, tornadoes and blizzards.Join us as we discuss this new Satellite that will help us with our forecasting abilites into the future!  --- Send in a voic
