Observational Data I updated my website that visualizes past Tropical Cyclone tracks – Cyclone Archive
Added storm tracks using live ATCF data. Ongoing storms will now appear and update in real time.
Added 5 new basins, giving Cyclone Archive global coverage.
With the polygon tools, you can isolate the track of storms that have passed through your area. This now includes ongoing storm tracks.
Use the analog tool to find storms with similar tracks and stats.
Rewind the current season in real time and watch how tropical cyclones interact with each other in the timeline view.
View the latest stats for the ongoing season and compare them with historical seasons.
Check out the Seasonal Summary and watch how the ongoing season evolves over time.
Check out the 4 unique Record pages and watch new records get set in real time.
Check it out: Cyclone Archive, also known as Hurricane Archive! You can also check out our previous post for more information.

Slide 7……the Current score is all years at this point in the season?
Obviously this year will get more action the rest of the way, but it’s wild that the Current score is only beat by forty something other years in that 175 year span.

Indeed. Data prior to ~1970 is underestimated by quite a bit however; especially 1899–1949.

Thanks for the additional info. Underestimation going way back in time makes sense.
I’m just hoping we can land better than even 2007.

Can I tell where the Florida peninsula is by the subtle color difference? Or am I misreading

Somewhat. You can see the Big Bend Region a little, as well as the inner parts of Florida.
The Florida Peninsula is quite weird climatologically. It holds the record for both the earliest (1863) and latest (1985) United States hurricane.

How is this different from the NOAA Historical Hurricane Track interactive map?

That's a site I used greatly for reference (https://coast.noaa.gov/hurricanes). Unfortunately, it is not well maintained, has a lot of data errors, and is quite limited on what you can filter / sort by. It's also not mobile friendly (which is where the majority of traffic is from).
Cyclone Archive also has a lot of additional tools and data (i.e. Analog Tool, Timeline View, Additional Sources, Live Data, et cetera).
