Iridium reposted this
Saildrone and NOAA kicked off the 2024 Atlantic Hurricane Mission early this year, with Saildrone Explorer SD-1041 intercepting the edge of Hurricane Beryl about 100 nm south of Puerto Rico. As it approached the northern edge of the then category 5 hurricane, SD-1041 experienced increased windspeeds and significant wave height, along with a decrease in pressure and several rapid decreases in air temperature from associated rain bands. Data snapshot of the intercept: 📉Lowest pressure measured: 1009.67 hPa 🌊Largest sustained waves observed: 7.79 m 💨Strongest winds measured: 43.6 kts sustained, gusts 53.48 kts SD-1041 is one of 12 Explorers in the mission this summer to do hurricane research this season. Atlantic Oceanographic and Meteorological Laboratory (AOML) NOAA Research Note: The wind gusts stated in this video were actually 34.78 kn. The sustained winds were 28.4 kn.
