Huracán: Investigating Atlantic Cyclones of Tropical Origin reaching Europe

Huracán (HUrricane Risk Amplification & Changing north Atlantic Natural disasters) is a UK–US partnership to deliver a new, physical understanding of tropical cyclone risk across the British Isles, Western Europe, and the Northeast US in a changing climate. In this talk, I will present some of the preliminary results from the project. I will present our strategy to improve the Cyclone Phase Space in order to better distinguish tropical cyclones from warm seclusion cyclones, a new dataset merging observations and reanalyses together in order to create a catalogue of past Cyclones of Tropical Origin reaching Europe, as well as a few case studies including wind, precipitation and storm surge impacts.
