Just in Time for Hurricane Season!

Who says the government never does anything useful?

The NOAA has updated their hurricane mapping tool with data from the last hundred and fifty years, and the ability to zoom in on any location or track all the storms of a given era.

See how often your home has been pummeled by bad weather!

Gaze in horror at the thought that the worst storm ever in your area -- for me, that's last year's Irene -- was a mere tropical storm, forty miles away, when it hit!

Wonder what a H5 would do if it actually made land near you!
