Watch: Moment extreme turbulence hits Hurricane Milton hunters

Hurricane hunters from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) experienced extreme turbulence as they flew through Hurricane Milton on Tuesday.

Video from aboard the flight shows items being thrown around the aircraft.

The scientists on board were collecting data from the storm, which President Biden says is due to be the largest in the US for 100 years.

The aircraft that the scientists flew in is called "Miss Piggy".
