Satellite imagery shows Hurricane #Melissa's growth from its formation on October 21 to a Category 5 hurricane through October 27, 2025. #HurricaneMelissa

A display of pure power from Hurricane Melissa today.

Remarkable satellite imagery.

A thread of videos from today’s flight into Hurricane Melissa

In this first one we are entering from the southeast just after sunrise and the bright arc on the far northwest eye wall is the light just beginning to make it over the top from behind us.

The infamous Hurricane Hunters just had one of the wildest flights in history today.

Flying straight into the heart of Category 5 Hurricane Melissa, a Lockheed Martin C-130J Hercules aircraft, call sign TEAL 75, was slammed by violent turbulence

The G-forces were so extreme they may have stressed the aircraft’s frame, forcing the crew to abort the mission and return to base in Curaçao for inspection.

Inside Melissa’s eyewall, the C-130J was thrown hundreds of feet up and down in seconds, nearly 700 feet of vertical motion within a single minute.

The crew also reported that the eyewall had a “sawtooth” appearance, an indicator of the storm’s chaotic and extreme structure.

Yet even amid chaos, the crew captured historic data, a central pressure of 893 mb and astonishing wind gust of 252 mph just above the surface, setting a world record for the highest wind gust ever measured by dropsonde in a hurricane.

The plane then spent more than 35 minutes circling inside the eye of one of the most violent storms ever observed in the Atlantic, searching for a path out of the hurricane that wasn’t filled with lightning and extreme turbulence.

These brave men and women risked their lives, without pay, to gather critical data that helped forecast the track and intensity of Melissa.

A legendary plane ride that will go down in history.

taking a Tropical Meteorology grad course during hurricane season is so rewarding... Hurricane Gabrielle was the first hurricane I've ever forecasted from a tropical disturbance and Hurricane Melissa is my first Cat-5🌀

Exciting news! 🎉 Today marks the first day of my journey in the MS Geosciences program! Ready to dive deeper into the world of geology and meteorology. 🌍💫 #MSU

A blurred photo of Earth?

Nope, this is Titan, Saturn’s largest Moon captured by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope.

SpaceX has released some new footage from the tower of the first Super Heavy booster catch yesterday. Absolutely epic shot.
