The Air Force Reserve Hurricane Hunters flew Hurricane Florence providing forecasters at the National Hurricane Center life-saving storm data. Flying in the heart of Mother’s Nature’s fury, the WC-130J Super Hercules and its Reserve Citizen Airmen aircrew collect atmospheric data and transmit via satellite to forecasters. The Air Force Reserve has the only operational weather reconnaissance squadron in the world, dating it’s history to 1943. (U.S. Air Force video by Technical Sgt. Chris Hibben) More
