The need for quick and "real-time" forecasting of tropical cyclones is more necessary than ever, say researchers.

Icy plumes that precede devastating storms called supercells may be tied to "hydraulic jumps," something Leonardo Da Vinci observed over 500 years ago.

Puerto Rico isn't ready for another hurricane season, according to research on the island's propensity for record-breaking floods and huge landslides.

A new mathematical model describes the effects of severe storms on kelp forest ecosystems, particularly the seafloor communities.

Larger differences between the Earth's surface temperature at night and day increase the risk of severe thunderstorms and flood-causing cloud bursts.

To investigate the link between thunderstorms and ER visits, researchers analyzed lots of data from the National Weather Service and Medicare.

Giant balloons that beam the internet from the stratosphere reveal a new insight into gravity waves. The research could improve weather forecasts.

Machine learning could improve forecasts for hurricanes. The method could help save lives by giving people earlier warnings about severe storms.

A thunderstorm in Argentina a few years ago included what scientists now call "gargantuan hail," hailstones measuring between 7.4 and 9.3 inches across.

Gray whales use Earth's magnetic field like a GPS to navigate their migrations, but cosmic bursts of radio static may throw them off.
