Tracking Hurricanes and Historical Hurricane Data

July 30, 2014 By Editor

Hurricane season is well under way as the traditional North Atlantic hurricane season began on June 1. As soon as the weather alerts start coming in about tropical storms its natural that interest in previous tropical storms will heighten and for good reason. Many of us flock to the site to check out historical paths of storms and hurricanes to see if they match up with current activity. This can be accomplished by using one of my favorite resources from NOAA, the Historical Hurricanes Tracks web.

Using the site you can easily search by geographic location to view all the past storms conveniently color coded by strength.  Note, you can also easily save and share storm paths of interest, for example, this link which takes you to the path of Andrew in 1992 – handy!

For more on hurricanes and hurricane data I suggest you also check out the GeoZone Blog and for you data hounds, see also this Data resource from NOAA where you can access a wealth of  data including historical LiDAR from areas ravaged by past storms
