Google Hot Trends searches gave away most of the leading positions to the news related to the projected path and outcomes of the hurricane Fay on August 18, 2008. National hurricane center miami captured the first line, hurricane fay tracking - the third, hurricane fay projected path - the fifth, noaa - the eights, and so on… We will start our review from NOAA . The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is the parent agency of the National Weather Service, represented by the National Hurricane Center in Miami-Dade County, Florida. NOAA’s primary missions: predict

Spectacular video of monster waves beating against the lighthouses. I Hope there were no people inside and if there were the experience must have been terrifying. Here's also a video of ships in storms. In such condition the ships' hulls deform.

The most recent volcano eruption accured in southern Chile. Chaiten Volcano put on a great show with a huge column of ash and as is the ash towered in the sky it ionised their which produced giant forks of lightning. It's worth mentioning that this volcano erupted for the first time in thousands of years. This

According to researchers, the number of tropical storms developing annually in the Atlantic Ocean more than doubled over the past century, with the increase taking place in two jumps.The increases coincided with rising sea surface temperature, largely the byproduct of human-induced climate warming.An official at the National Hurricane Center called the research "sloppy science" and said technological improvements in observing storms accounted for the increase.Hurricanes derive their energy from warm ocean water. North Atlantic surface temperature increased about 1.3 degrees Fahrenheit during

MYTH: THE LARGER THE TORNADO, THE STRONGERFACT: A thin funnel cloud called a "rope" tornado might not look as devastating as some of the massive, computer-generated tornadoes seen in the movies, but don't be fooled. A tornado's size and shape does not signal its strength. Some rope tornadoes can wreak F5 levels of damage, whereas some extremely wide twisters - called "wedge" tornadoes - only reach F0, the weakest level on the Fujita Scale. MYTH: OPENING WINDOWS WILL MINIMIZE DESTRUCTIONFACT: Although authorities once encouraged people to open windows to equalize air pressure,

Five satellites were launched into space from Florida on Saturday aboard an unmanned Delta rocket to investigate electromagnetic storms, the dark side of the phenomenon that causes Earth's dazzling aurorae. The $200 million mission is expected to help scientists develop better forecasting techniques for potentially dangerous solar storms, which can knock out power grids, navigation and other satellites and even force airlines to abandon polar routes due to loss of radio contact. The satellites were carried into orbit aboard a Boeing-built Delta 2 rocket that lifted off at 6:01 p.m.

Security firms are warning, that the e-mails, where is written thay contain details of the storms that battered europe, as a matter of fact contain malicious virus. E-mails with the subject "230 dead as storm batters Europe", can leave computers vulnerable to attack. The messages were first detected as the storms, which have killed at least 28 people, continued to rage. Experts say they are surprised how quickly the new virus appeared, it is spreading at about few hours, since the storms were still raging.
