🌀Have you noticed the National Hurricane Center is testing a new track cone this season? The new experimental graphic draws the cone using ovals (instead of circles) that separate forward speed from left-or-right track errors and cover 90% of possible track outcomes (up from the traditional 67%). Look for "EXPERIMENTAL" in red at the bottom left of the map. What do you think of the new design? Share your feedback: surveymonkey.com/r/ProposedC… Learn more at: nhc.noaa.gov/experimental/co…
