Gulf Coast Hurricane Tracker

A single source reference on tropical weather predictions. With a traditional focus on the upper Texas and Louisiana Gulf Coast we've maintained links to track all Atlantic Basin, Caribbean and eastern Pacific storm systems. We are now expanding our view to tropical storms throughout the world intending to be a comprehensive global storm tracking resource.

I am a chemical engineer with 20+ years of experience in polymerization and polymer processing. I consider weather systems and climate science fascinating. Incomplete computer models are being used to justify public policy that is thinly disguised redistribution of wealth. My intent is to shed light on the science of climate change and the facts that the Sun is the primary driver and that current temps are within normal variation.
