Preparing Caribbean for 2024 hurricane season

U.S. Ambassador Roger F. Nyhus and Barbados Ministry of Home Affairs and Information Wilfred Abrahams toured the U.S. Air Force Reserve’s WC-130J aircraft April 18, 2024, at Barbados during the Caribbean Hurricane Awareness Tour. NOAA hurricane specialists and the 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron “Hurricane Hunters” visited four Caribbean locations to discuss hurricane preparedness, resilience and how people can become weather ready. As part of the event, dignitaries, students and the public toured the aircraft to learn how scientists collect hurricane information to improve National Hurricane Center forecasts.
