With Ana, Bill, and Claudette having popped up in the last 48 hours, it seems that the tropical weather season has finally started in the Atlantic. A bunch of people have been asking for the tropical weather resources that I use to look up information.
My primary source for information is HardcoreWeather’s tropical forum, which has amateur meteorologists punditing and posting links to different models on a constant basis. It’s of the same quality as Jeff Masters’ Blog, but updated more frequently. They also have a twitter account, which is good if you’re trying to follow things but don’t want to do the work to follow them yourself.
Besides that, here’s a bunch of links that usually have good information:
- SkeetoBite Weather
- CIMSS Tropical Cyclones
- Experimental forecast Tropical Cyclone Genesis Potential Fields – Individual model runs in animation showing where lows are and will be.
- Tropical RAMSDIS Online – Satellite info
I may add more links later. I’m missing a few resources that I usually check…
