hurricane tracker

Cyclone path predictor

A hurricane tracker is a tool, system, or service that monitors and displays the position, projected path, and intensity of hurricanes and tropical storms.

These range from websites and apps showing real-time storm data to sophisticated meteorological systems used by forecasters: I've been refreshing the hurricane tracker all morning.

The term also applies to people who follow storms professionally or as enthusiasts.
