hurricane hunter aircraft. usually based in mississippi these are c-130 cargo planes, , tricked out to gather and transmit weather data. we were part of a small group of journalists allowed on board. up in the cockpit, pilot pete is -- peyton eustis is starting his eighth year for flying this unit. >> second year, maybe third doing atmospheric river. it is a relatively new mission for us. just like the name implies, we are used to seeing hurricane hunters over the atlantic. they give us stunning visuals flying into the eyewall hurricanes. >> we are not going to do that this like. even in the atmospheric river, we try to keep a distance from thunderstorms. brendan: but the mission is similar. when it comes to weather data, the pacific can be a big blue black box. >> something is happening to the system approaching the west coast. >> they do that using these, drop zones, which they shoot out the bottom of the plane. once they shoot the drop zone

out of this tube it deploys a , parachute. it will take 12 minutes to fall the way down to the ocean, sending data back up to the plane all the way. >> what is your temperature, westerly wind wind direction? we are dropping 25 to 30 knots throughout today. >> once that data comes on board, it is sent from the plane to the world by satellite. within 10 seconds, it is already in the weather models, to be used by forecasters and scientists, like anna wilson, who studies atmospheric rivers. >> they are not new, but we have only in the past few decades really been able to spot them with satellite. there is a lot of research ongoing to understand how atmospheric rivers may change with climate change. brendan: a lot of us out west grew up hearing about atmospheric rivers but by a different name, the pineapple express, because of where many of them come from. >> we are basically halfway to hawaii now. brendan: atmospheric rivers can basically happen all over the world, but the forecasted

landfall can be off by 200 to 300 miles. it is also hard to predict the amount of rain and when it is going to fall, all crucial information to keep reservoirs from flooding. part of the trouble -- the atmospheric river is around 10,000 feet and higher clouds can block satellite images. but drop zones can punch right through, measuring more information, and studies show that data helps. >> we can have as much as 20% improvement in the precipitation intensity forecast in the pacific northwest. >> i have been on a mission that is 12 hours, but we enjoy anything that is less than 10, i will tell you that. brendan: hurricane hunters are used to long flights. they will pass the time with push-ups over the pacific for at least a couple of months. in sacramento, i am brendan reutimann. liz: francis, let's get a check of the forecast now because it seems like we have good news. frances: we do get a few breaks and all this wet weather will
