From the air, NASA earth satellites track hurricanes by orbiting at the same speed as Earth's rotation, which allows them to observe each phase of hurricanes as they form and develop, including consequences. Then we rely on the computer to model the storm.

As a result, other agencies will have better weather forecasts and communities will have more time to prepare for and prepare to evacuate from potentially dangerous storms.
