Mine would be NRL Montery. Nice satellite images. After that is NHC.

I like the JTWC. The main reason being is that they give good solid discussions on possible developing storms and then at the end of each discussion they rate each disturbance's chances of becoming a tropical cyclone with in 24 hours. The 3 ratings are Poor Fair and Good. When the system achieves a good rating then a Tropical Cyclone Formation Alert is issued for the system.

Hmmm ...

Has to be ... my own tropical weather pages on my website. (Not a poll option) but it combines many of the available resources on the web, plus pages for historical data that UNISYS hasn't even updated yet ...

I always go to the NHC first, but I like TWC for expert analysis.

NHC is my first step of the day...especially during the Peak of the Hurricane Season.

My favorite is stormcarib.com . It pulls in NHC as a package,and gives upsdates from surrounding islands, which is important here as there is a huge lack of coverage for the islands weather wise.
This is the first year I found S2K, and it helped a lot in explaining details, plus sometimes just being a good distraction

Well, I don't really go to any tropical web sites for storm info, as we get everything at the office. But I do have a site that I visit every day there's a storm out there. It's Gary Gray's millenniumweather.com. In particular, the tropical discussion.

http://www.millenniumweather.com/tropical/discuss.html

I also never miss Joe Bastardi's daily video tropical briefing.

Accuwx in no way should be a poll option as it is <b>NOT</b> an official source of info in any way what so ever (though it is a good source of whining

I have various sites that I go to look for the latest info about the hurricane season apart from the weathercentral of storm2k.NHC,Gary Grays site,Weather Underground and Stormsfurys site which I recommend because of the complete information he has there are the other sites that I go to.

HEY!! S2K is not up there. I get my weather info from this site.

It was asking for favorite official site, but that is a poorly worded question since the only official site is NHC. Professional site may have been a betetr question, and I'd put mine up there ahead of many as the forecasters I have, one of them, would not even work for Inaccuwx because of their business practices (they pay less per year than one makes as a grad student, and overworks people, not to mention, garnage forecasting)

Sorry I didn't put more than those, but those are the only ones in my favorites.

All of them are good, as is storm2k (of course), SF's site and Derek's site.
