Disasters & Hazards

Active tropical cyclones (NOAA NHC)

Currently active tropical cyclones (Atlantic + Eastern/Central Pacific) from the NOAA National Hurricane Center. Each storm carries the current center, max sustained wind, min pressure, movement, classification, and a Sugra-computed Saffir-Simpson category / severity. Filter by bounding box (on the storm center) or basin. The forecast cone/track geometry is deferred to a later version (area is null in v1). Empty off-season. Sugra retransmits; it is not an official advisory source.
