Scientific Explanation:
Hurricane Irma, that took place in September 5, 2017, was strengthened by five storm,
as claimed by the scientists, and had come on Hurricane Irma making landfall near Texas and
Corpus Christi, and had rained heavily in the Houston and the areas surrounding it. The
picture was captured with the Visible Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) instrument by the
NOAA/ NASA Suomi NPP satellite. The National Hurricane Centre started to monitor the
movement of the tropical wave since 26th August of w2017 and had hit the coastal areas on
late 27th August, initiating the massive storm. The depression gradually had started to
intensify, within two days of hitting the ground, as recorded by the Scatterometer and the
Satellite estimates. The increase in the sea surface temperature had ensured the intensification
of the waves, however, the cool waters and the dry air had played a little role in being a
hindrance in the way of the strengthening of the wave (Rowell).
