Much of what we know about Hurricane Dorian comes from hurricane hunters who track storms from the sky. While flying into the eye of a hurricane may seem to be a terrifying thrill, it s vital for tracking Dorian s direction and speed.The U.S. Air Force planes that fly into hurricanes are typically used for dropping off troops and supplies in war zones. But they ve been modified to maneuver through the storm for up to 14 hours. One of those planes is flown by the 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron. The target of their mission, Hurricane Dorian, threatens 25 million people in its projected path. About 10,000 nike dunks panda feet in the sky, chief pilot Lieutenant Colonel Jeff Ragusa and his crew are collecting data to track the storm s impact. Knowing what it s doing now is gonna be the information that they need to know, Ragusa told CBS News correspondent Errol Barnett, who joined the squadron on their flight. The crew drops GPS sensors while flying directly through the eye to the hurricane s edge and back again as many as four times. They gather information about the storm s speed, direction and winds. In the air, the scenery can change within moments from the gray and choppy eye wall to the storm s eerily bright and serene eye.But on the ground, violent and dangerous winds are ravaging the Bahamas ndash; and Dorian s next target is the Un adidas campus 80s ited States.

Some vill yeezy slide agers hadn t even finished cleaning up from last week s back-to-back eruptions when they were ordered to leave their homes once again.

Over the past week, a blanket of volcanic ash has coated nearby towns, choking the area s salmon industry and disrupting flights all the way to Argentina.So far, at least 6,000 people have been forced to evacuate, along with some pets.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnunchin said Thursday that teen climate change activist Greta Thunberg should g yeezy et a college degree before she speaks out about fossil fuel divestment.

In fact, the leaders of the two Koreas have only held talks two other times since the Korean War. The most recent of those talks took place more than a decade ago in 2007, when Kim Jong Un s father, Kim Jong-il, was in power.The historic summit will focus on Kim Jong Un s recent vow to suspend nuclear and long-range missile tests, as well as North Korea s plans to close its nuclear test site. The Trump administration will also be keeping a close eye on the events of the summit as it prepares for a meeting between Kim and President Trump that is anticipated for May or June.While Kim has agreed to a seat at the table, however, he is reportedly refusing to sit on any of the summit s public toilets.

Locust swarms have taken over parts of eastern Africa. The insects are rapidly eating the only source of food for many people in a region that is already food insecure.The crop devastation has prompted the United Nations to appeal for $76 million in aid to combat the swarms and prevent a humanitarian crisis. The UN has raised about $15 million so far.Locusts are similar to grasshoppers, but differ in that they have the ability to change their behavior and can migrate over large distances. The swarms over the Horn of Africa are made up of desert locusts, which are known for forming swarms that can be highly dense and mobile, according to the UN s Food and Agriculture Organization desert locust infor mizuno handballschuh mation center.

The Israeli government has effectively frozen new Jewish construction in Jerusalem s disputed eastern sector, municipal officials said Monday.

Nonetheless, signs of the freeze drew angry criticism from hard-line lawmakers, including a member of Netanyahu s own party who warned the government could collapse over the matter.Construction in east Jerusalem has been a major sticking point since Israel infuriated Washington last month by announcing a major new east Jerusalem housing development during a visit by U.S. Vice President Joe Biden.In Washington, U.S. officials said they were aware of news of the freeze but were seeking clarification from the Israeli government and had no immediate comment.
