Flying into the eye of storms

Most all the information you’ve heard about Hurricane Dorian, as it slowly meanders along the east coast of Florida, wouldn’t be possible without the work of the Hurricane Hunters, a group of about 100 Air Force reservists who fly straight into the eyes of storms. “We are it. We are the only operational unit in the world that does this,” said Lt. Col. Sean Cross. “Flying into a hurricane is very dangerous. Ships avoid it, everybody avoids it, everybody evacuates. And here we are in the 150,000-pound aircraft,” he affirmed. There are only 10 WC-130J’s in the world that can do this job and they’re all at Keesler Air Force Base in Biloxi.
