Emanuel in NYTimes

Kerry Emanuel continues to be the go-to-guy for all things hurricane. From yesterday’s edition of The New York Times:

Of course, Emanuel is the author of Divine Wind: The History and Science of Hurricanes. He has a website devoted to the book at www.divinewindbook.com, which includes all of the fantastic images!
