Hurricane Hugo (High Quality) – Luquillo, Puerto Rico – September 17-18, 1989
Between September 16th and 22nd, 1989 one of the most infamous and disasterous hurricanes in Atlantic history, Hugo, devastated portions of the Caribbean and South Carolina.
From the evening of the 17th through the morning of the 18th, the US Virgin Islands, and the northeastern tip of Puerto Rico bore the brunt of Hugo’s exceptional violence. Alongside the thousands of residents who suffered through the terrifying experience, a small group of veteran storm chasers, including myself, had the rare opportunity to document the full force of an intense hurricane, during daylight hours, at a direct coastal location.
At the time of Hugo’s landfall in Puerto Rico the storm was producing sustained winds near 130mph, with gusts over 160mph.
In commemoration of Hugo’s 20th anniversary I’m presenting a new, digitally re-mastered, high-quality DVD edition of my chase footage, including many previously unreleased scenes, new special features and extra content. This seven minute introductory clip showcases some of the highlights from the main feature.
Without actually experiencing an event of this magnitude, first-hand, it’s difficult to truly understand the incredible ferocity, unrelenting power, and somber aftermath a violent hurricane commands.
The new 20th anniversary commemorative edition DVD is dedicated to all those affected by Hurricane Hugo… to the meteorological, scientific, and storm chasing communities who strive to further our understanding of these amazing forces of nature… and to future generations who will carry the quest for knowledge forward.

Hunting Hurricanes [1080p]
As hurricanes and other tropical systems approach the U.S., NOAA and the U.S. Air Force scramble their squadrons of hurricane hunters to fly into the storms. These flights collect precious data used to understand how storm intensity is changing, and better predict where storms will make landfall. Along their flight path, hurricane hunters use a variety of sensors to calculate pressure, rainfall rates, wind speeds, and many other variables. At some locations, they deploy instruments called dropsondes. As dropsondes fall through the storm, they collect profile information that is radioed back to the aircraft.
In this animation, the flight path of a NOAA WP-3D Orion Hurricane Hunter is shown, along with the points where dropsondes are released.
