How to Plan Ahead for Rougher and More Dangerous Coastal Storm Surges
Coastal storm surges caused by hurricanes and tropical storms are perhaps the most damaging part of these natural disasters. Hurricane Katrina led to an estimated $75 billion in damage in the New Orleans area alone, with at least 1500 deaths directly or indirectly resulting from the storm surge. Storm surges are likely to become more common — and more dangerous — as hurricanes and ...

Understanding Weather Fronts and Their Effects
A weather front is a meteorological term that describes the advancement of an air mass that will soon replace the existing air mass in a particular region. This boundary between two air masses brings differences in pressure, density, temperature, and moisture. There are four categories of weather fronts — and understanding how these fronts affect the weather, especially offshore, is ...
