Hurricane tracks and positions provide information on where the storm has been, where it is currently located, and where it is predicted to go. Each storm location is depicted by the sustained wind speed, according to the Saffir-Simpson Scale. It should be noted that the Saffir-Simpson Scale only applies to hurricanes in the Atlantic and Eastern Pacific basins, however all storms are still symbolized using that classification for consistency.Data SourceThis data is provided by NOAA National Hurricane Center (NHC) for the Central+East Pacific and Atlantic, and the Joint Typhoon Warning Center for the West+Central Pacific and Indian basins. For more disaster-related live feeds visit the Disaster Web Maps & Feeds ArcGIS Online Group.Sample DataSee Sample Layer Item for sample data during inactive Hurricane Season!Update FrequencyThe Aggregated Live Feeds methodology checks the Source for updates every 15 minutes. Tropical cyclones are normally issued every six hours at 5:00 AM EDT, 11:00 AM EDT, 5:00 PM EDT, and 11:00 PM EDT (or 4:00 AM EST, 10:00 AM EST, 4:00 PM EST, and 10:00 PM EST).Public advisories for Eastern Pacific tropical cyclones are normally issued every six hours at 2:00 AM PDT, 8:00 AM PDT, 2:00 PM PDT, and 8:00 PM PDT (or 1:00 AM PST, 7:00 AM PST, 1:00 PM PST, and 7:00 PM PST).Intermediate public advisories may be issued every 3 hours when coastal watches or warnings are in effect, and every 2 hours when coastal watches or warnings are in effect and land-based radars have identified a reliable storm center. Additionally, special public advisories may be issued at any time due to significant changes in warnings or in a cyclone. For the NHC data source you can subscribe to RSS Feeds.North Pacific and North Indian Ocean tropical cyclone warnings are updated every 6 hours, and South Indian and South Pacific Ocean tropical cyclone warnings are routinely updated every 12 hours. Times are set to Zulu/UTC.Scale/ResolutionThe horizontal accuracy of these datasets is not stated but it is important to remember that tropical cyclone track forecasts are subject to error, and that the effects of a tropical cyclone can span many hundreds of miles from the center.Area CoveredWorldGlossaryForecast location: Represents the official NHC forecast locations for the center of a tropical cyclone. Forecast center positions are given for projections valid 12, 24, 36, 48, 72, 96, and 120 hours after the forecast's nominal initial time. Click here for more information.

Forecast points from the JTWC are valid 12, 24, 36, 48 and 72 hours after the forecast’s initial time.Forecast track: This product aids in the visualization of an NHC official track forecast, the forecast points are connected by a red line. The track lines are not a forecast product, as such, the lines should not be interpreted as representing a specific forecast for the location of a tropical cyclone in between official forecast points. It is also important to remember that tropical cyclone track forecasts are subject to error, and that the effects of a tropical cyclone can span many hundreds of miles from the center. Click here for more information.The Cone of Uncertainty: Cyclone paths are hard to predict with absolute certainty, especially days in advance.

The cone represents the probable track of the center of a tropical cyclone and is formed by enclosing the area swept out by a set of circles along the forecast track (at 12, 24, 36 hours, etc). The size of each circle is scaled so that two-thirds of the historical official forecast errors over a 5-year sample fall within the circle. Based on forecasts over the previous 5 years, the entire track of a tropical cyclone can be expected to remain within the cone roughly 60-70% of the time. It is important to note that the area affected by a tropical cyclone can extend well beyond the confines of the cone enclosing the most likely track area of the center.

Now includes 'Danger Area' Polygons from JTWC, detailing US Navy Ship Avoidance Area when Wind speeds exceed 34 Knots!Coastal Watch/Warning: Coastal areas are placed under watches and warnings depending on the proximity and intensity of the approaching storm.Tropical Storm Watch is issued when a tropical cyclone containing winds of 34 to 63 knots (39 to 73 mph) or higher poses a possible threat, generally within 48 hours. These winds may be accompanied by storm surge, coastal flooding, and/or river flooding. The watch does not mean that tropical storm conditions will occur. It only means that these conditions are possible.Tropical Storm Warning is issued when sustained winds of 34 to 63 knots (39 to 73 mph) or higher associated with a tropical cyclone are expected in 36 hours or less. These winds may be accompanied by storm surge, coastal flooding, and/or river flooding.Hurricane Watch is issued when a tropical cyclone containing winds of 64 knots (74 mph) or higher poses a possible threat, generally within 48 hours. These winds may be accompanied by storm surge, coastal flooding, and/or river flooding. The watch does not mean that hurricane conditions will occur. It only means that these conditions are possible.Hurricane Warning is issued when sustained winds of 64 knots (74 mph) or higher associated with a tropical cyclone are expected in 36 hours or less. These winds may be accompanied by storm surge, coastal flooding, and/or river flooding. A hurricane warning can remain in effect when dangerously high water or a combination of dangerously high water and exceptionally high waves continue, even though winds may be less than hurricane force.RevisionsMar 13, 2025: Altered 'Forecast Error Cone' layer to include 'Danger Area' with updated symbology.Nov 20, 2023: Added Event Label to 'Forecast Position' layer, showing arrival time and wind speed localized to user's location.Mar 27, 2022: Added UID, Max_SS, Max_Wind, Max_Gust, and Max_Label fields to ForecastErrorCone layer.This map is provided for informational purposes and is not monitored 24/7 for accuracy and currency.

The dataset includes native-grid model outputs and post-processed outputs from the first-ever multi-week regional convection-permitting MPAS simulation during September 2017, a period when the devastating Hurricane Maria was active. This ... historic simulation provides a valuable dataset for studying weather and climate across Mesoamerica and the Caribbean using a realistic, storm-resolving model setup. The simulation is the first major outcome of the NSF NCAR Mesoamerica Affinity Group (MAAG) in collaboration with Dr. Kelly Nunez Ocasio at Texas A&M. MPAS-A version 8.0.1 was used to produce this simulation. The Limited-Area domain extends from 20 degree South to 61 degree North and from 145 degree West to 15 degree West. A variable-resolution mesh with 15 km and 3 km grid spacing was used, where the 3 km refinement region is elliptically shaped and centered at 20 degree North and 80 degree West. The refined region covers Central America and the Caribbean, while the 15 km portion of the domain extends well into South and North America. The combination of a Limited-Area domain and variable-resolution mesh was chosen to be computationally efficient while maintaining sufficient resolution at the domain's boundaries to allow for proper dynamical downscaling of initial and lateral boundary conditions. The model was initialized using ERA5 data to simulate the period during which Hurricane Maria (2017) approached the Caribbean and the eastern U.S. This dataset can be used to study Hurricane Maria, other hurricanes that were active during this period, and various weather and climate features of the region, such as low-level jets, coastal diurnal cycles, the ITCZ, extreme rainfall, and mesoscale convective systems, among others. While the model produces outputs at 15 km and 3 km horizontal variable resolutions, the post-processed data have been interpolated to a 0.25 degree by 0.25 degree latitude-longitude grid and 27 isobaric levels in the vertical. The repository also includes namelist files for running the model, a README file, and a PDF describing the variables in each file type.

This data repository contains the model simulation and observational data used in ... manuscript: There are four Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model simulations consisting of two planetary boundary layer (PBL) parameterizations and two urban canopy models. The PBL schemes are Mellor-Yamada-Janjic (MYJ) and Yonsei University (YSU). The urban canopy models are a simple bulk scheme and the multilayer Building Effects Parameterization (BEP). The observational data consists of Automated Surface Observing Systems (ASOS) stations of Palm Beach International Airport (KPBI), Miami International Airport (KMIA), Pompano Beach Airpark (KPMP), the Fowey Rocks station from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Data Buoy Center, the University of Miami Health Center WeatherStem station, and an observational wind swath analysis of Hurricane Irma from the NOAA National Hurricane Center (NHC).

In that study, eight dust storms in the western U.S. from 2015-2021 were simulated with the WRF-Chem model at 9 km grid spacing, with one simulation directly inserting soil moisture ... retrievals from the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) satellite into WRF-Chem ("Insert SMAP"), and the other leaving the WRF-Chem soil moisture field uncorrected ("No SMAP"). Model simulations were validated against ASOS METAR observations of 10 m wind speed, U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) observations of soil moisture content, Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) retrievals of aerosol optical depth (AOD), and Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) retrievals of AOD. For all eight cases, this dataset includes 1-hourly and 15-minute WRF-Chem model output for both Insert SMAP and No SMAP experiments for a limited set of relevant variables, USCRN station observations, AERONET station retrievals, and matched-pairs of valid MODIS AOD retrievals with WRF-Chem simulated AOD. All data files are provided in NetCDF.

EcoDRR global classification scheme based on spatial combination of ecosystem coverage and natural hazard physical exposure. The physical exposure data-set shows the product of hazard frequency and people exposed to this hazard in the same 100 square kilometer cell. For a specific natural hazard, a 0.01 degree resolution raster is generated, showing hazard annual frequency weighted with portion of pixel potentially affected. In the case of tropical cyclones, annual frequency is calculated using the category one of the Saffir-Simpson scale. It corresponds to the largest wind buffer of each past event footprint.

Sources: The dataset includes an estimate of tropical cyclone frequency of Saffir-Simpson category 1. It is based on two sources: 1) IBTrACS v02r01 (1969 - 2008, http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/ibtracs/), year 2009 completed by online data from JMA, JTWC, UNISYS, Meteo France and data sent by Alan Sharp from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology. 2) A GIS modeling based on an initial equation from Greg Holland, which was further modified to take into consideration the movement of the cyclones through time. Unit is expected average number of event per 100 years multiplied by 100. This product was designed by UNEP/GRID-Europe for the Global Assessment Report on Risk Reduction (GAR). It was modeled using global data. Credit: Raw data: IBTrACS, compilation and GIS processing UNEP/GRID-Europe.

This feature service depicts the National Weather Service (NWS) watches, warnings, and advisories within the United States. Watches and warnings are classified into 43 categories. Those 43 categories have been filtered to just coastal watches, warnings, and advisories: coastal flooding, hurricanes, tropical storms. A warning is issued when a hazardous weather or hydrologic event is occurring, imminent or likely. A warning means weather conditions pose a threat to life or property. People in the path of the storm need to take protective action.A watch is used when the risk of a hazardous weather or hydrologic event has increased significantly, but its occurrence, location or timing is still uncertain. It is intended to provide enough lead time so those who need to set their plans in motion can do so. A watch means that hazardous weather is possible. People should have a plan of action in case a storm threatens, and they should listen for later information and possible warnings especially when planning travel or outdoor activities.An advisory is issued when a hazardous weather or hydrologic event is occurring, imminent or likely. Advisories are for less serious conditions than warnings, that cause significant inconvenience and if caution is not exercised, could lead to situations that may threaten life or property.SourceNational Weather Service RSS-CAP Warnings and Advisories: Public AlertsNational Weather Service Boundary Overlays: AWIPS Shapefile DatabaseSample DataSee Sample Layer Item for sample data during Weather inactivity!Update FrequencyThe services is updated every 5 minutes using the Aggregated Live Feeds methodology.The overlay data is checked and updated daily from the official AWIPS Shapefile Database.Area CoveredUnited States and TerritoriesWhat can you do with this layer?Customize the display of each attribute by using the Change Style option for any layer.Query the layer to display only specific types of weather watches and warnings.Add to a map with other weather data layers to provide insight on hazardous weather events.Use ArcGIS Online analysis tools, such as Enrich Data, to determine the potential impact of weather events on populations.
