During hurricanes, it’s not wind but water that poses the greatest risk – causing 86% of storm-related deaths in the past decade, mostly from inland flooding. FAU’s I-SENSE is revolutionizing storm forecasting through its leadership of the Southeast Atlantic Econet, a cutting-edge network of more 190 weather and flood monitoring stations. Spanning from Key West to South Carolina, it delivers real-time data that powers lifesaving forecasts from the National Weather Service.
