New York, The Great Red Spot may have existed since before 1665, but the present spot was first seen only after 1830, and well-studied only after a prominent apparition in 1879. By Earth standards, Hurricane Irene is a monster storm. NY 10036. It is expected to strengthen later Friday and early Saturday and is forecast to remain a hurricane in the coming days.The latest forecast track has Isaias over or near the southeastern Bahamas. The first map depicts the return period for a hurricane of any category on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale, the second map is for a major hurricane (Category 3 and higher). But similar processes spawn them, according to Ingersoll. The areas with the highest return periods for a hurricane of any category are coastal North Carolina, South Florida and Southeast Louisiana, about every 5 to 7 years. Squalls on those planets, like Saturn's Great White Spot and Jupiter… Hurricane Wilma was a Category 3 hurricane when it reached Florida’s coast in 2005, bringing initial winds of close to 120 mph. This scale estimates potential property damage.
"We're working right now on this giant Saturn storm, with that exact question in mind," Ingersoll said.Get breaking space news and the latest updates on rocket launches, skywatching events and more!Thank you for signing up to Space. A Hurricane Watch means that hurricane conditions are possible within the watch area. The Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale is a 1 to 5 rating based on a hurricane's sustained wind speed.

Jupiter, the fifth planet in our solar system, has a mass one-thousandth of the sun, a diameter more than 11 times larger than Earth and is made up mostly of gas. Jupiter's bizarre weather patterns continue to be revealed. Hurricane Dorian, now weakening, became a monster Category 5 hurricane this past weekend. Jupiter's Great Red Spot — which has been raging continuously for at least 180 years — could fit two entire Earths within it, Ingersoll said.And in December, a thunderstorm about 6,200 miles (10,000 km) wide erupted on Saturn. Hurricane Wilma was a Category 3 hurricane when it reached Florida’s coast in 2005, bringing initial winds of close to 120 mph. Jupiter's Flood Hazards With the Loxahatchee River running through town, and the Jupiter Inlet and open Atlantic Ocean to its east, Jupiter and the surrounding area is vulnerable to flooding from seasonal rains and hurricanes. Jupiter's Little Red Spot could blow them away with winds of about 384 miles per hour, some of the highest wind speeds ever detected on any planet. "The moisture requirement explains why gigantic, hurricane-like storms don't seem to occur on Venus or Mars, he added. But they don't do that. Hurricane Katrina was also a Category 3 hurricane …


It is expected to reach the central Bahamas later Friday night. At the present rate of reduction, it would become circular by 2040. It's not comparable. Laboratory studies are examining the effects that

Jupiter's bizarre weather patterns continue to be revealed. The spot occasionally disappears, becoming evident only through the Red Spot Hollow, which is its location in the Jupiter's clouds taken on 27 June 2019 by Hubble's Wide Field Camera 3.Color animation of Jupiter's cloud motion and circulation of the Great Red Spot. Thick ammonia clouds often obscure views of the atmosphere. ""For some reason, they store up that energy for a long time, then let it loose in a violent, huge storm," Ingersoll said. Weird, geometric cyclones spin above the north and south poles of the massive planet, according to new research published Wednesday. A Category Five hurricane, the strongest class on Earth, has winds raging at more than 155 miles per hour, and they usually max out around 200 miles per hour. Most vulnerable are low-lying areas, areas along canals and lakes, and coastal areas prone to tidal surges. But it's just a baby compared to the massive cyclones of Our planet is not the only one in the solar system that boasts huge, "There certainly are storms that have thunder and lightning and rain that are bigger than terrestrial hurricanes," said atmospheric scientist Andrew Ingersoll of the California Institute of Technology, a researcher with NASA's Cassini mission to Saturn. The Great Red Spot is a persistent high-pressure region in the atmosphere of Jupiter, producing an anticyclonic storm, the largest in the Solar System, 22 degrees south of Jupiter's equator. So, energy and moisture. Hypotheses supported by laboratory experiments suppose that the color may be caused by chemical products created from the solar ultraviolet irradiation of The Great Red Spot varies greatly in hue, from almost brick-red to pale salmon or even white. Jupiter Hurricane History: Jupiter, Florida Hurricane History. They are "unlike anything else encountered in our solar system," Overall, nine cyclones were spotted over Jupiter’s north pole and six over the south pole.
