Have you ever wondered how and why hurricanes and tropical storms get names? @NWSNHC Hurricane Specialist Elizabeth Adams talks about the history of naming hurricanes, how hurricanes names are used today, and what happens when a name is retired.

How do data from the @53rdWRS help @NWSNHC hurricane specialists make a hurricane forecast, and meteorologists at @NWSWPC make rainfall forecasts?

A 9-foot storm surge is no joke! @NWSMobile built their own storm surge pole to show how high storm surge can get, and how much surge some hurricanes have caused in the area. The colors match those used in NHC’s storm surge products. Nice work!
