The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA) Historical Hurricanes Archive is a comprehensive collection of data and information about hurricanes that have occurred in the United States. It includes details such as storm paths, intensity, and impacts over the years. This archive helps scientists, researchers, and policymakers study past hurricanes to better understand their patterns, improve forecasting, and enhance preparedness for future storms. By analyzing historical data, officials can make informed decisions that protect communities and reduce damage during hurricane season.
