Part of the science these days. but flying into these storms, this may sound old-fashioned, but its still the best way to get the highest quality data to feed into those computer models. thats what its all about. to get this data. we transmit it off this airplane by sat coma and it goes directl into the computers. weve been flying missions into the storm now for over three days. its this high altitude aircraft dropping 36 of those dropsondes yesterday and last night. and all that data got fed in...

Caribbean, tropical depression nate could gain steam before it make landfall this weekend. rob: jenna steam is tracking its path. >> we will have to watch this, the area of low pressure is close to land. it wont have a lot of chance to develop in the next 6 to 12 hours but we expect it to be named, it will be nate and we expect potential for a hurricane as it moves over the gulf of mexico. if theres a difference between the big storms we have seen this season it will be a quick mover and we thin...

We now have tropical storm warnings up for those two countries, as this thing strengthens and heads into the gulf of mexico, potentially as a category 1 hurricane on saturday, making landfall on sunday. but our computer models all over the place. anywhere from east texas to west florida need to be wary of this storm. david? >> all right, were watching. rob, thank you. there is still much more ahead on "world news tonight" this wednesday. the mother of two behind bars tonight, ordered to spend ...

Includes a lot of coastal sections of alabama, mississippi, and the new orleans area. get into a little bit of the computer models are hinting at. change add little bit overnight. european model shifting more towards american model. all the lines where the cone of uncertainty is. new orleans all the way back to central portions of the state. so theres pretty good agreement on where the storm is going to head now. the intensity is the million dollar question. worst-case scenario, category two or ...

Overnight shifted a little closer to louisiana. shifted also and they do have it as a category one. low end category one hurricane making land fall somewhere near mississippi with the right side, the worst of the whatever storm surge there is in rain and waives being towards mobile. again, 72 hours out. we still can shift this. if anything, looks like it may shift closer to new orleans in the days ahead. heres how computer models are looking at it. european model caved in to american podle. now ...

Adjacent to the dam, the northwest quadrant, where you see that shading of red on the map of puerto rico there. thats where we have flash flood warnings in effect. residents are -- authorities are worried that the dam we have been talking about so much again could give way, could collapse or ultimately fail. so we continue to monitor that, because additional rainfall there has put more stresses on an already failing dam. this is the abundant moisture that has moved across the caribbean lately. t...

Even if there arent more storms there will be more severe. what you think about that argument? >> certainly is the theory that holds and it is well accepted in the community. it is something that i think we know quite well. that over the next century, we will expect stronger storms and the more extreme storms will add some additional miles per hour and that makes a big difference between a category four and category five over the next century. as we saw with hurricane harvey, we generally will s...

>> a friend of mine here in atlanta karnt reach her mother. they just want to talk to them. so, maria marchs on. you probably heard us saying, good riddance, go away. youre going to tell us whether it is or not. >> yes, and the computer models are still suggesting it is going to be off the coast of north carolina. now, i will tell you that back in october 2016, it was hurricane matthew that menaced the southeastern coast of the united states and it pummelled some of these coastal areas. they h...

Stronger hurricane maria. and there you can see the debris outside of these homes, all across puerto rico, area after area has been so devastated. computer models have it edging towards the coast, going into tuesday, possibly wednesday. well just have to keep an eye out for it because computer models have really not been definitive about this. back to you guys. >> wow. just hopefully, you know, the storm continues to move away from the u.s. east coast because given what it did there in puerto ri...

The east and northeast. wouldnt that be wonderful if theoretically all of that really happened? im not saying that it wont. we hope that it will. but these computer models have really edged this much further toward the west. for hurricane maria it is still category 3. unbelievably a category 3. it is moving into more unfavorable environment because the water temperatures here are still cooler. not dramatically cooler, but it is cooler. and we are going to look at going into sunday, still trekkin...
