Hurricane Tracking - How do we do it?

First we take the actual path of a hurricane.
This is drawn on an appropriate map.

This produces possible areas that may be hit
by the storm in the next 72 hours

Then the information is fed through a number of
computers run by people who were last at a beach
in 1955.

Finally allowing the actual path of the storm to
be predicted within minutes
