METEOROLOGICAL SATELLITE CENTER TECHNICAL NOTE No. 18 MARCH, 1989
HOW TO TRACK
A HURRICANE
Advisories are numbered consecutively for eachstorm. Present location and intensity is describedand expected movement is given.* Tropical cy-clone advisories are issued at six-hour intervals
―at midnight, 6 a.m., noon, and 6 p.m., EasternDaylight Time. Each message gives the name,
center (eye) position, intensity, and forecast
movement of the tropical cyclone.
Hurricane center positions are given by latitude
(for example, 13.5 degrees North) and longitude
(for example, 55.0 degrees West). When the
storm moves within range of radars, center posi-
tions may also be given as statute miles and
compass direction from a specified point.
When you receive a tropical cyclone advisory,note the advisory number, center position, inten-sity and forecast direction of movement. Then
mark the center position on the tracking chart.
Because hurricanes change direction veryquickly, you should listen more carefully to wherethe storm will go than where it has been.
See the color block at the bottom of the chart for
an example of how to plot a storm from a posi-tion given in latitude and longitude.'
