Stormpulse Tracks Hurricanes

We’ve just been alerted to a fantastic hurricane tracking site called Stormpulse.com. Featuring beautiful graphics, the site tracks tropical storms and hurricanes in the Pacific and Atlantic, as well as severe weather across the U.S. One of the many handy features is the ability to check the distance between a named storm and any point of land. Hurricane Hilary, for example, is 476 miles southwest of Cabo. The concise info box on Hilary shows her current location, that she’s moving WSW at 10 mph and she has wind speeds of 125 mph. Last week’s Tropical Storm Ophelia in the Atlantic, on the other hand, dwindled to ‘low-potential disturbance #1’, which the site says has a 20% chance of regenerating into a tropical cyclone over the next 48 hours.

There are many more features on this site that we have yet to discover — including getting Stormpulse on your iPad — but even the basic ones surpass any other hurricane tracking site we’ve seen. Check it out!
