From the formation of Subtropical Storm Andrea on 20 May to the demise of Tropical Storm Sebastien on 24 November, this video depicts the evolution of the 2019 Atlantic hurricane season using hourly GOES-16 Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) Band 13, an infrared band from which we estimate cloud-top temperature. All frames were generated in Python by accessing files hosted on Amazon Web Services (https://registry.opendata.aws/noaa-go.... Temperatures are displayed in degrees Celsius corresponding to this colorbar: http://arashi.geosci.msstate.edu/imag.... The animation itself was created via ffmpeg.

In this video, storms are labeled with their name (or number if their intensity never reached 34 kt) anytime their intensity according to maximum 1-minute average wind speed is at least 30 kt and they are designated as tropical or subtropical by the National Hurricane Center (NHC) best track: https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/data/#hurdat. Labels are placed to the right (east) of the NHC best-track center.
