The Most Studied and Documented Hurricane
- "In late August, Hurricane Laura, a Category 4 storm, made landfall in Louisiana. It was one of the strongest storms to make landfall in the U.S., as measured by maximum sustained winds. Researchers from Texas Tech University's Hurricane Research Team (TTUHRT), which consists of faculty and graduate students from Texas Tech's Atmospheric Science Group and the National Wind Institute (NWI), were on the ground, tracking Hurricane Laura as it swept across the Gulf Coast... The results? Hurricane Laura is now the most well-documented major hurricane that has made landfall in the U.S." - Excerpt from Texas Tech Today
