Tropical Hurricane Tracker (THT) enhances how Android users worldwide monitor tropical storms and hurricanes. Offering near real-time updates, the app aggregates data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) and the National Hurricane Center, delivering detailed and official storm information.
Real-Time Storm Tracking
THT provides users with up-to-date information on tropical storms, featuring comprehensive data such as storm strength on the Saffir-Simpson scale, position updates, wind speed, motion, and pressure. Users can access alerts and advisories relevant to their chosen basin, enhancing storm tracking precision significantly during hurricane season.
- THT relies on NOAA and NHC data.
- Offers storm advisories, track models, and forecasts.
- Includes global Active Storm view with historical tracks.
Educational Features and Alerts
The app also serves as an educational resource, offering users content on cyclone classification and safety tips. Notifications are crucial in alerting users to new advisories per basin or storm, efficiently delivering information through various formats such as graphics or text-only updates.
Target Users and Compatibility
While THT is not a replacement for daily weather apps, due to its lack of general weather details like UV index or daily temperatures, it is a valuable tool for those living in tropical regions or interested in storm tracking. When paired with other weather apps, THT enhances awareness and preparedness during the hurricane season.
- Focuses on storm-specific data and alerts.
- Suitable for users in or monitoring tropical regions.
- Offers educational resources and preparedness guidance.
