	Research Weather Maps Version 2009.03 Updated thru: Sat Jul 4 17:35:02 UTC 2009 Ryan N. Maue FSU/COAPS Homepage Follow me on Twitter 2009 Tropical Cyclone (in)Activity Includes ongoing updates and summary of activity from all world basins including the North Atlantic, Eastern Pacific, and Southern Hemisphere. Global hurricane energy nearing 50-year lows due to an almost unprecedented crash in cyclone duration and frequency during that past several years. GFS Hurricane Basin Forecasts Global Tropical Basins Animation 0-144 hours: GFS HWRF Hurricane Model Forecasts Updated through No Active Storms GFDL Hurricane Model Forecasts Updated through No Active Storms Note: HWRF and GFDL forecasts update at 1:25am,7:25am,1:25pm,7:25pm, if storm investigations or cyclones are active. GFS graphics update at 12:25am +6,12,18hrs. This is as soon as the NCEP computer finishes outputting the data.
