This study analyzes precipitable water vapor (PWV) in and around tropical cyclones (TC) over the Caribbean region. PWV is highly variable in time and space, and it is a potential energy source for tropical cyclone development. To characterize the PWV profile in and around TCs, observations of PWV ar...
