Video from a reconaissance flight I was on with chaser Jim Edds on August 26, 2005 flying around and over hurricane "Katrina" as it was intensifying in the SE Gulf Of Mexico after crossing S Florida. This a couple of days before it came ashore in the northern Gulf coast (devastating New Orleans and the LA / MS coast). The flight is ran by NOAA's "Hurricane Hunters" out of Mac Dill Air Force Base near Tampa. FL. The aircraft is a modified Gulfstream IV that flies at about 45,000 feet and releases instruments (dropsondes) into the storm environment. The video is a sampler taken from the "Hurricane Chasing 2005" DVD project. Please note that this video is solely for viewing. Please contact the chasers / parties involved for any licensing / usage.
