NOAA provides easy access to historical hurricane tracks
Description: NOAA's Historical Hurricane Tracks mapping application can easily generate customized maps based on more than 150 years of Atlantic hurricane data. Its web site includes tropical cyclone data and information on coastal county hurricane strikes data through 2010. It also features a searchable database of population changes versus hurricane strikes for U.S. coastal counties from 1900 to 2000. Understanding historical hurricane landfalls is important for preparing for future storms. [Source: NOAA News]
