The key facts at the top say how many storms the National Hurricane Center was tracking when this page last read its list, and whether any of them was a hurricane. The table lists each storm with its basin, its maximum sustained wind and its minimum central pressure from its latest advisory.
Where to find the forecast
This page lists storms; it does not forecast them. The National Hurricane Center's home page links each active storm to its public advisory, forecast track and any watches and warnings.
When it updates
This page reads the National Hurricane Center's list of active storms every few hours and updates at the same address, with the time of each reading in the key facts. A storm can form, strengthen or weaken between readings, so for a decision about safety, use the advisory itself.
