NOAA storm tracker follows tropical storms and hurricanes

In response to a deluge of visitors to its web sites during the 2004 hurricane season, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has introduced a new way to follow specific tropical storms or hurricanes. Once a storm is deemed a threat, NOAA storm tracker will offer links to associated advisories, tracking maps, satellite images, and more.

This web tool opens in a new and smaller browser window, which can be resized and placed anywhere on a computer desktop, allowing the user to continue working while keeping track of a storm. Find out more and access the tracking tool at: www.stormtracker.noaa.gov/.
