Dev Anand Teelucksingh sent this link to MegaTrack, “an OSS application that tracks Atlantic and eastern Pacific tropical storms on a map. Requires Java to run and installs available for Windows, Linux and MacOS X. Gets the storm locations from NOAA’s NHC website.”
Download MegaTrack here.
Caribbean Free Photo has some interesting new stuff as well, including a photo of a West Indian Travel Permit from the 1960s.

Pingback by Global Voices Online » Blog Archive » Carribean: Tropical Storm Tracking Software 07.19.05 @ 7:25 pmI just tested the application on Windows and Mandrake 10. It works quite well. However, it should be noted that it gets the information from the NOAA website, and it may be more efficient for up to the date information to simply go to the website.
