Mercator Projections (180 hr forecast): - Surface Pressure & Wind 180 hr forecast
- Precipitation 180 forecast
- 180 hr Hindcast
* - Denotes Hi-Fidelity images used to forecast coastal winds or view storm details (2 mb isobars w/higher density wind flags). Low fidelity images use 4 mb isobars w/less densely spaced wind arrows)
+ - Denotes ultra Hi-Fidelity images with 1 mb isobars and full .11 degree wind barbs in 3 hr increments
Images update 4 times daily. Files are comparatively small ranging from 0.5 - 1.3 Meg.
All animations require Macromedia™ Flash Player.
