I am wondering if in the near future can anything be done to better predict where these storms will go? Presently they do a pretty darn good job considering not too long ago people had no clue as to where they were going to hit. I was just curious....you know as technology advances, will the predictions get better.




I saw on NASA Tv yesterday where they have got another sat called GIFTS that is suppose to get the info back in min instead of hours and that it will show 3D images and its suppose to be quiet better than the GOES sats. But they didn't say when it will be launched.
