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.

Introducing: Slipstream


Born and raised in Hong Kong, I spent some time in Southern California before returning back to my birthplace to live and work.

When I was a kid growing up in the 80's and 90's, typhoons meant nothing more than time off school and sleepless nights. Memories include listening to the wind howl, soaking up window leaks with towels and buckets, and watching ceiling lights swing as I sat in an apartment 20 floors up.

Having taken up sailing and along with it a greater interest in meteorology, I was happy to get the opportunity to contribute to Gulf Coast Hurricane tracker. As such, I'll do my best to report events as they unfold in and around South East Asia.

Any comments or suggestions appreciated

Thanks.
