How much more can one region take? I fear we are watching another natural disaster unfolding in the Atlantic and northeast Caribbean as yet another hurricane with potentially catastrophic impacts intensifies at frightening speed while taking aim on islands still reeling and in ruins in the wake of a merciless blow rendered them not even a week and a half ago by historic Hurricane Irma. The storm involved this time bears the name "Maria" and is intensifying at frightening speeds just shy of the Leeward Islands. Here's an animated look at Hurricane Maria's wind field: https://earth.nullschool.net/…
The same dynamics that spawned Irma--and before that Hurricane Harvey--warmer than normal ocean waters and a lack of storm disrupting wind shear--appear poised to allow Maria to explode into another atmospheric monster. Watch Maria intensify in these twin GOES-16 satellite loops out of CIMSS at the University of Wisconsin:

Two more current satellite animations will take you up to Maria's current state---the first a spectacular GOES-16 visible satellite animation courtesy of CIRA-RAMBB out of Colorado State: RAMMB/CIRA SLIDER: Satellite Loop Interactive Data Explorer in Real-time with GOES-16 and Himawari-8 Satellite Imagery
