Weather and Hurricanes Water Managers watch the weather very closely.
If possible, decisions concerning the operation of
water control districts need to be made in advance
of significant storm events. The following are number
of very useful weather and hurricane internet sites
that we may use to help us make operational decisions.
Other sites are listed where historical tropical storm
data is available to download or where great weather
satellite images are available. EARLY APRIL FORECAST OF ATLANTIC SEASONAL HURRICANE ACTIVITY AND US LANDFALL STRIKE PROBABILITIES FOR 2004 by Dr. William Gray of Colorado State Univ.
Dr. Gray's Tropical Storm Forecast Hurricane & Storm Tracking for the
Atlantic & Pacific Oceans The StormTrack system
receives weather data from the US National Weather
Service via satellite. The system creates an entry
for each tropical depression, storm, or hurricane
when the National Weather Service begins issuing advisories. The Operational Significant Event Imagery team produces high-resolution, detailed imagery of significant environmental events which are visible in remotely-sensed data available at the NOAA Science Center in Suitland, Maryland.
