Central Florida Hurricane Center Hurricane Data Links
Use this if you are searching for a certain type of data, for more generic sources and/or local sites, see the regular Links page.
Official Forecasts
Good general reference
Skeetobite's Weather - storm tracks and forcasts; historical reference
CIMSS Tropical Cyclones - Environmental conditions, Saharan Air Layer, Steering Layers, Computerized Dvorak, Microwave imagery, Wind analysis, etc.
Tropical Atlantic Recon coverage - includes Vortex Recon, HDOB messages, and Dropsondes.
College of DuPage Weather - surface and upper air data; satellite and radar imagery; model data
BuoyGraph GOM Buoy observations on a map
NOAA Historial Hurricane Tracks Extremely Extensive Mapping and Dataset of all Historical known Tropical Storms and Hurricanes
Ohio State Weather - Includes Vortex Recon and Satellite data
Satellite Imagery
NOAA's SSD site - very good, simple to use with hurricane floaters
NASA's GHCC GOES site - very good, fully customizable, long period animations
MODIS high res satellite coverage - Gallery and Real Time
Remote Sensing Systems (SSM/I, TMI, AMSR, QSCAT, and MSU) storm analysis
Tropical RAMSDIS online - satellite coverage
PSU - satellite loops
Washington University - alternative site, but very difficult to use
Radar Sources
Official Cancun Radar / Official Cancun Radar Loop
Official Western Cuba Radar Loop
The High-Resolution Rapid Refresh (HRRR) - The HRRR is a 3-km resolution, hourly updated, cloud-resolving atmospheric model, initialized by DFI-fields from the 13km radar-enhanced Rapid Refresh.
KML/KMZ Layers for Google Earth
Aircraft Recon, via Tropical Atlantic
Everything-in-once package from UIUC - just about every weather KMZ is dynamically linked from this. Don't turn them all on at once.
Raw Data
Automated Tropical Cyclone Forecast (Navy) - Best Track, Models, SHIPS, etc.
Forecasting Aids
Model Run Animations
FSU model site - best there is
FSU Ryan Maue - HRWF, GFDL, More, another very good FSU site
PSU model site - alternate when FSU is down
UKMET model site (Univ. Wyoming)
NOAA's NCEP model guidance - continental US only
RaleighWX/Allan Huffman's Model Page - GFS, UKMET, EWMCF, etc.
Development and Evolution
Tropical Cyclone Formation Probabilities - via NOAA
Favorable Shear Conditions Map
Forecast Tracks
National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) track and intensity plots (Jonathan Vigh's site)
Clark Evan's track and intensity plots
Sea Surface Temperatures
Navy site - always check date of data - only runs sometimes - when working, very good
Rutgers site - Good alternative site if the others sites is down; also provides more detailed views
Other Maps/Models
FIM model (Flow Following Finite-Volume Isosahedral Model)
MIMIC Morphed Integrated Microwave Imagery Total Precipitable Wate, good tool for finding center of systems.
Florida NavMap: Real-Time Local Traffic Conditions: https://www.helpinginjuredpeople.com/florida-navmap/
Surfing
StormSurfing - General Surfing Forecast (wave heights)
Historical Maps
NOAA interactive viewer of storm tracks - very good
Reference
Katrina's eye (large file 33Mb)
Isabel's eye (example of Mesovortices)
