Video: Plane flies into Hurricane Melissa's eye, reveals surprising surprise!

Arab Weather - An unprecedented moment in the world of hurricanes, as a research aircraft from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) was able to fly inside the eye of Hurricane Melissa, the most powerful storm currently on Earth. It is classified as a Category 5 storm, with winds around the center reaching speeds of 282 km/h.

The biggest surprise was the complete calm inside Al Ain, with no clouds, in contrast to the violent winds and heavy rains surrounding it. The atmosphere was remarkably stable amidst this devastating cyclone.

The eye covers an area of between 1,000 and 1,200 km², and is characterized by strong air currents with a significant drop in atmospheric pressure. Winds circulate around the eye counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere.
