Hurricane forecast vs. storm path: It's not as easy as it looks
Noel's actual path superimposed on a 5-day forecast.
With the National Hurricane Center's push to extend their forecast to seven days, we decided to take a quick look at Noel, a tropical storm that threatened Florida last year. The track veers wildly at times, but it mostly stays within the forecast cone. Noel became a hurricane after passing over the Bahamas.
You can view the NHC's animation of Noel forecast maps or the report for the entire 2007 hurricane season.
