How Hurricane Melissa exploded into a monster

The Category 5 storm, which left a trail of destruction across the Caribbean, stunned forecasters and meteorologists, achieving extreme rapid intensification as well as a never-before-recorded wind speed near the ocean surface. University of Miami tropical cyclone experts explain how it happened.

A waltz over water, but no landfall dance

With a rare meteorological phenomenon and the absence of a U.S. landfalling cyclone, the 2025 Atlantic hurricane season has so far proved atypical. But that could change, University of Miami experts say.

New study reveals record heat and rapid cooling in equatorial Atlantic in 2024

Atlantic Niño/Niña events can influence hurricane development, but they can be difficult to predict. A new study sheds light on the oceanic chain reaction that can trigger these events, potentially improving our ability to forecast them.
