I'm running SBSH Pocket Weather, which allows me to download images automatically for viewing within the program. I have radar, satellite, and other graphics nicely programmed, and it all works wonderfully.
Living in North Carolina, I want to add hurricane tracking images (I'd like to see when and how badly I'm gonna get clobbered). I'd like a source that includes all the latest storms so that whenever Pocket Weather updates, it includes whatever menacing 'cane is out there. Right now, the maps I can find at the National Weather Service, Weather Underground, and other sources, all seem to be specific to a single, current, particular storm as far as I can tell. Is there a map out there somewhere that shows the forecast track of any and all current hurricanes?
IMO it's about the best one for tracking purposes.

Oh, sure I track them; it is good to live each day with a porpoise.
I like the National Weather service site and draw many of my weather maps from it--great source of all sorts of information. I found a map at Tampa Bay Online, which operates a weather / hurricane page in cooperation with their local NBC affiliate. It has the generic Atlantic view from the National Weather service but adds the 5-day forecast track to the storms. That's pretty close to what I was looking for. It would be nice to have the computer model predictions, but I can't find a map for those that isn't storm-specific.
The most impressive map site Storm Pulse, which radimus introduced here a little while ago--it would be a dream to get that map downloaded on the pda--but it is in flash and I haven't figured that out.
So true hstn, in fact I believe someone even has a signature line that says,
The greatest tragedy is not death, but life without a porpoise. or was it a dolphin... I forget these things sometimes.
Come to think of it, maybe it was Seal, or perhaps an Otter.
I think it was a wolf, perhaps? :hide:

I'm confused. Storm Pulse gets their information from the site I posted. Other than the way it's displayed, what's the difference? I guess you want all the cities shown too?

Yeah, the display is what I'm looking for. The National Weather Service site has a couple of options: It shows the static position of current storms in an Atlantic view map OR is shows the tracking forecast for an individual storm. I'd like to be able to have my PocketWeather program download a map that shows all current storms and their predicted paths. The map needs to be not specific to one storm so that I don't have to change the settings for the download all the time. The storm pulse map draws it all together nicely--very nicely.
Oh, and drat it, I can't think of a witty animal pun.
No need to be sheepish about it H, this is a wether thread after all, and now knowing about the National Wether Center must be a great delight for a certain Sottsman hereabouts.
