Hurricane Hunters have arrived in Niagara Falls to help monitor the progress of Hurricane Hermine.

The Hurricane Hunters include three Air Force Reserve WC-130J aircrafts from the 53rd Weather Reconnaissance Squadron based out of Keesler AFB, Mississippi.

The purpose of these aircrafts is to collect data for the National Hurricane Center (NCH) by flying directly into the storm.
