The 2021 Atlantic hurricane season was the third most-active season on record. The USGS deployed crews and scientists across the country to provide science and resources to emergency managers.
USGS Hurricane Preparedness
Detailed Description
Before a hurricane, USGS Scientists undertake a data collection effort of a grand scale. They install a temporary mobile network of sensors along the coasts to collect additional data on the intensity of storm surge, one of the most dangerous elements of a hurricane. This effort provides critical information that allows various USGS partners and emergency responders to make better informed decisions during and after these extreme weather events. https://www.usgs.gov/hurricanes
