• Hurricane Sandy is just the most recent example of the need to work together to provide improved services to help prevent injuries and the loss of life.
Reminder of Why Are We Here
• We must build upon the synergy and collaboration we’ve achieved in the tropical cyclone community over the last 5 years to reassess the gaps in our capabilities and adjust our priorities, as necessary, moving forward to:
o Ensure we get the “biggest bang for the buck” in a tough budgetary climate
o Ultimately, minimize the Nation’s vulnerability to nature’s most destructive forces

• Assess the progress in addressing the operational priorities of the operational centers (NHC, CPHC, and JTWC) and adjust future research priorities as needed
• Review ongoing numerical modeling initiatives within NOAA, Navy, NASA, and NSF
• Receive updates on Joint Hurricane Testbed projects ready for transition from research into operations
• Explore other R&D opportunities (modeling and observational) that will promote improvements in
forecasting and understanding of TCs and their associated effects• Investigate the application of social science to the TC forecast and warning notification problem
