New imagery reveals the impressive 2,000-mile journey of Hurricane Beryl, from its formation in the Atlantic Ocean to its landfall in Mexico. The University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Cooperative Institute for Meteorological Satellite Studies has developed innovative imagery that tracks a storm’s center, known as the eye, using a combination of components.
The eye of a hurricane is formed by a cluster of powerful winds called the eyewall. These winds rotate so rapidly that they create a calm center within the storm, known as the eye. This unique imagery allows researchers to monitor the storm's health by observing changes in the eye over time.
