" We've all heard about those hurricane hunters -- they bravely fly into the eye of the storm and bring back information that would be impossible to get otherwise. What goes to hurricane hunter aircraft are right here in Tampa as storm to -- meteorologist Lee band shows that these planes are helping improve storm forecast."

" I say the hurricane -- have to have nine lives -- that manages the hurricane hunter aircraft at Macdill air force day. Primarily the planes are used for re -- during hurricane these and it's a dual mention doing three hours before the long form."

" We're looking at Genesis of storms. Three hurricane -- tropical storm."

" Then tracking -- line. In detail we have a doppler radar. And with the doppler radar flying a particular pattern in the story we can -- compute. Cars on -- this information at -- forecasters. And back to the people who are running the models they can. Incorporate that information into the models improve the track and the intensity forecast. "

" McFadden and better radar measurements higher speed computer and that's -- like communication help improve hurricane forecast. They use that thing called a drop on its relief from the plane to get data."

" And no parachute in the top. Measured temperature. Humanity. Pressure and position in the atmosphere."

" We are ready to release the drop on net I just put it in this suit and once it's released. It immediately start transmitting stayed up all the way down to the surface of the water for six about forty minutes. The operator on the plane reviews -- drop."

" Plus it gives the okay to be dropped Baghdad all designed to plug in Baghdad look at that -- it's okay start putting him."

" Commander alliger Monta is the pilot and took -- into the cockpit upfront this is just in nineteen sensitive. The plane is 33 years old and hadn't had any structural and -- and it but it can still fly into 155 mile per hour wind that."

" actually did their finds -- please don't go flying thousands. It's vertical and --"

" This vertical winds make weaker storm actually more turbulent -- trying to become a category four -- five storm."

" People's safety police and news Channel 8."

" Angela drops on he was holding their of those cost about 700 dollars apiece. Doctor McFadden says they have helped improve hurricane track forecasting by as much as 25 to 30%."
