excluded_tracks | R Documentation |
A dataset containing the storm tracks for Atlantic basin tropical storms between 1988 and 2018, from the US National Hurricane Center's Best Track Atlantic hurricane database (HURDAT2). Only storms that were excluded from the main 'hurr_tracks' dataset, because they did not come within 250 km of at least one US county, are included.
excluded_tracks
A data frame with 9,124 rows and 6 variables:
Unique storm identifier with the storm name and year,
separated by a hyphen (e.g., "Alberto-1988",
"Katrina-2005"). Some storms are "Unnamed" or have other
generic names. In these cases, it may be preferable to identify
the storm using the first four characters of their
ATCF ID (usa_atcf_id
) and the storm season rather than
the storm ID (e.g., 'AL11-2018').
Character string with the Automated Tropical Cyclone Forecasting System ID for the storm.
Character string with date and time of storm track recording, in
the Universal Time Coordinated (UTC) time zone. This date is formated
as %Y%m%d%H%M
.
Latitude of storm center, in decimal degrees
Longitude of storm center, in decimal degrees (note: longitudes are given as negative values for longitudes west of the prime meridian)
1-minute maximum sustained surface wind speed, measured at 10 meters above the ground, in knots (values are rounded to the nearest 5-knot value)
