National Weather Service Forecasts Current Cyclone Generation Probability Advanced Dvorak Technique UW-CIMSS Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) Dvorak Current Intensity Chart Various NHC Reports FAQ's, Glossaries, & Educational Information Sites About Hurricanes Other Sites National Weather Service Forecasts http://weather.noaa.gov/ - Enter your city and state for a forecast. If you ever want to check out weather conditions internationally, don't overlook the "International Weather Conditions": http://weather.noaa.gov/international.html This is great to find pressure information on some of the Carribean Islands. Current Cyclone Generation Probability Main page: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/genesis.html Real Time image: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/DATA/gparm/xyrfpr.gif This is a computer generated product. It is an interesting product, but the percentages might be very incorrect. Advanced Dvorak Technique http://cimss.ssec.wisc.edu/tropic2/real-time/adt/adt.html It estimates the pressure of a system. It's an experimental estimate that can be quite off, though it is often helpful in finding the center of a storm and to give you an idea if the system is possibly getting weaker or stronger. (The diagram available for the cyclone is good for that.) This resource is for developed tropical cyclones only. See the site below for invest areas. Take a look at the two images on the storm's page. One will let you know if the storm is probably getting stronger or weaker. The other points out where the center probably is. For invest areas and developed storms, see this page from NOAA: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/positions.html Once you get the T number and CI number, use the chart in the next section to determine the intensity of the storm. UW-CIMSS Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) http://amsu.ssec.wisc.edu/ This is another technique that gives intensity estimates for storms. Dvorak Current Intensity Chart http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/CI-chart.html If you know what the pressure is expected to be, you can use this approximate guide to see what the wind speed might be expected to be. It's definitely an estimate when using the ADT technique. (Advanced Dvorak Technique) You can also use the chart on this page: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/abouttafbprod.shtml Various NHC Reports NHC Hurricane Outlook http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/outlooks/hurricane.shtml Details what NOAA expects of the hurricane season. National Hurricane Center Forecast Verification http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/verification/index.shtml This is an excellent resource. You can take a look at some of the model error rates and NHC forecast error rates among other things. FAQ's, Glossaries, & Educational Information Frequently Asked Questions About Hurricanes http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/tcfaq/tcfaqHED.html Lots of questions answered. American Meteorological Society Glossary of Meteorology http://amsglossary.allenpress.com/glossary National Weather Service Glossary http://www.weather.gov/glossary/ Glossary of Weather Terms http://www.meted.ucar.edu/hazwx/glossary.htm WW2010 (the weather world 2010 project) from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign "Integrates current and archived weather data (images & text) with instructional resources (modules & curriculum) using innovative technologies (new navigation, multiple interfaces)." This is one of the world's best free resources for learning about weather. There is an incredible amount of weather content on this site.
