The remainder of this
information on this page describes this feature as it was introduced in 2014.
A significant enhancement is the ability of users to examine current observations for all official weather stations, NOAA operated coastal stations, Buoys, Oil Rigs, Ship Reports and observed storm reports (over 5000 stations). Data includes Wind Speeds, Wave Heights, Pressure, Ocean Temperatures, Air Temperature, Dew Points and Local Storm Reports. This is presented in a user friendly format including the depiction of current tropical cyclones / formation alert areas and the ability to plot graphically or produce reports on the parameters listed above. Sample uses of this feature include:
Comparison of forecast vs.
actual developing conditions
Easy, quick displays
of smaller scale events away
from the storms circulation
(i.e. feeder bands)
Real time, multiple source
on-site reports, indicating
storm effects on the ground
The ability to view
local (or worldwide) weather
observations, even without
active tropical storms
Depiction of formation
"alert" areas.
and
now in 2015... real time
depiction of dangerous heat
indices, daily precipitation
and relative humidity.
