NOAA provides easy access to historical hurricane tracks
Description: Seeing where hurricanes have hit and how often is one of the best ways to bring home a powerful hurricane preparedness message. A NOAA website, Historical Hurricane Tracks, lets users insert their zip code and see a map that contains more than 150 years of Atlantic hurricane tracking data. The site also contains global hurricane data from as far back as 1842. Understanding historical hurricane landfalls is important in preparing for current storms. [Source: NOAA News]
