intensify into a hurricane in the next couple of days. florida is in a state of emergency. it comes after former hurricane fiona slammed through parts of eastern canada, knocking out power for 350,000 people. the storm is behind a 12 suspected deaths in puerto rico, one confirmed death and guadeloupe, and another confirmed death in the dominican republic. and we cease stephanie stanton isn t dunedin, florida, barack to begin with and we see news meteorologist bill karen s. let s take a look at ian and what we are looking at right now. yeah, we still have a lot of questions. we have to know first of all where it s going to go, and what s the intensity going to be when it gets. that goes the two big. things historically, the track forecasts are lot better than the intensity forecast. this time, there s still a lot of questions about. let me explain. to give you the latest on the hurricane center, is eligible. storm it is not really begun to get its act together to really strengthen. we
up flying several missions a day to get data for the forecasts for the meteorologists. we have some images captured above a noaa plane flying through dorian s eye yesterday. this is that footage. joining us now on the phone is noaa flight director paul flaherty. paul, thank you for being with us. you were up in dorian s business four times yesterday including once overnight. tell us what you saw. good morning. thank you for having us. the crew i ve been flying with, we have flown for the last four days in support of hurricane dorian missions and forecasts. what started off as pretty much a messy storm as you have probably followed has really started to change quickly. it s a storm moved more northward and more into a favorable environment. so we ve seen that transition. we ve been following it. we ve been mapping what s happening inside the storm and the surrounding area to help with track forecasts. some good news is there s dry
irma, dropping in all we re going to drop 32 drops into the storm and around the storm from an altitude of 45,000 feet. and this is really, really critical information for the computer models to get that really fine scale detail that s necessary to move that track a little to the left or a little to the right. what we do is we drop these instruments, and again, they re sort of the opposite of a weather balloon. they fall by parachute from the bottom of the aircraft and they transmit pressure, temperature, humidity. we get a report of wind speed and direction four times per second. so it s very high resolution data. and all that data is fed directly into the computer models that the hurricane center uses to make their track forecasts. so, rich, you ve flown around
reminds me of hurricane charley in 2004. i was in florida for that hurricane and the response that ensued. the idea that it moved in that fashion moving up through naples and to florida, less populated areas in the wetland areas as you just heard. the problem is there are some highly populated areas in the north and fort myer and elsewhere. a big concern would be if this storm and swung around and hit tampa, a highly populated area of florida that s got a little of low-lying areas. we are concerned about these track forecasts. we ve got government officials in each of these areas. we are at this point mobilized. we have volunteer organizations, faith-based organizations, federal government, the entire trump administration, state governments, volunteers from around the country at state levels but also just good-natured citizens mobilized bringing their forces to bear. but there is going to be a period of time where we are going to at the stop stage and
