- The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season had a record-breaking 30 storms, 13 of which became hurricanes. It was the most active hurricane season on record.
This time-lapse animation from the beginning of May to the end of November shows 1000 hPa (roughly 100m/320ft) winds over the North Atlantic. The data come from the National Weather Service's GFS numerical weather model (www.emc.ncep.n.... Blue colors represent slower winds. Greens and yellows are faster winds. Streamlines show the direction of the wind in each frame of the animation.
The peak of the season was in September (0:40 to 0:51), especially mid-month.
Now i realize UK is a Really windy country
As a Floridian, the UK does seem to catch the tail-end of a lot of our storms 😜

Surprised its been a while and no one saw this but... 1:05 lota
What about Theta and Iota?
@@RobloxBansYT And Zeta, even Delta?
@@TBATG zeta and delta are in there, you just don’t see it.
The process of indescribable energy transformation described in the simplest possible way.👍🏼⚡️
2020 was insane in all aspects
That massive extratropical cyclone that formed at 0:58 looks brutal.
0:45 Medicane Ianos or 01M
Its alpha i think
@@abihatariq9544 alpha is right before that. Janis hits greece.
@@lucaweatherdude_6542 so medicane ianos/janis on right in medditarian and alpha hitting portugal?
@@aleembalouch1431 yes
Would you consider doing another version of this with the hurricanes labeled on screen? This is super interesting to see visually
Awesome, thank you. This helps understand complex weather patterns and how they change with seasons. Please do more of these videos. Also please do one with temperature at 700 hPa so we can see how the jet stream moves during the year and how cut-off lows detach from the general circulation.
Amazing sim!
Visualization not sim :)
@@T.J oh
Wonderful. A couple of these did affect us.
Loop is a bit TOO fast though for thoughtful tracking: half or 1/4 this speed...
you can change it any clicking the button below 😉
Nice stuff! Thank you!
Looking fascinating indeed but I bet people living in the vicinity must be super cold now or soon. lol
@@rothsshvili5125 yepp, my place will be -1-15 celcius in a few days
really cool and easy way to see the hurricanes, nice video!
あなたのおっしゃる通り!すばらしい!(*^▽^*)🌐 From for East jpn
0:45 these hurricane like pattern at the arctic are so interesting, can someone explain to me why they still retaining a hurricane- like pattern? I only know hurricane requires warm waters, so I’m wondering why they still retain the pattern of hurricane after reaching the cooler waters near Greenland and the arctic
Those are mid-latitude cyclones, which get their energy from fronts and the jet stream above and not warm ocean waters. Hurricanes can transition into mid-latitude cyclones once they reach a high enough latitude and interact with the jet stream.
This is stunning. I love this website
there was a whirlwind/?hurricane?/whirlwind for almost a month on the sea!! starting to rise @0:43 till 0:51
crazy
Paulette (2020) was kinda crazy lol
Cool!
60FPS please please
Seems like Europe gets them quite a bit as well throughout the season. Why do they not call them hurricanes in Europe?
Not classed as a hurricane unless being fed by water that is at least 26°c. Instead they may be known as extratropical cyclones, usually now dissipating slowly
The European cyclone track never gets storms as powerful as tropical hurricanes. Category 1 hurricane is the most powerful they get but even that is rare.
There are medicanes in the Mediterranean though every now and then.
Their structure is quite different. Tropical Cyclones like hurricanes are warm all around and rain all around.
Extratropical cyclones like the storms that hit Europe have a different structure.
They usually have a cold front and a warm front. In a lot of the windy places, it isn't even raining and it can be quite cold.
Plus, as people have pointed out, wind speeds never reach the extremes of a tropical cyclone.
Which software did you used to do the animation?
It amazing how there are planets like Mercury or the Moon where there's very little activity, nothing much is going on and it's like their entire world is on pause then on the other hand, planets like Earth have a lot of activity going on. From the atmosphere, to the oceans and the biosphere.
The Atlantic really is The Stormy Sea.
Idk why this made me so full of anxiety
hurricanes pulled up like it was a function
Settings > Playback Speed > .25
why is nobody talking about how mexico is farting out wind, SINCE MAY???
Probably caused by the geography of the landscape
1:12 is a jumpscare of a huge sub-cyclone
