Hi,

If I may jump in. Abel are you looking for "best tracks" of typhoons? For
example, see http://www.npmoc.navy.mil/jtwc.html there are other sites for
other regions that also give the storm center. If you are looking for other
"storm centers" for example monsoons ... there are other sources. Mary Jo I
also need help. Would you please advise me on the best work on finding the
winds as a function of distance from the center given best tracks. I need to
reconstruct wind radii on old data world-wide. Seems like RSMC Tokyo has the
only new "WMO standard" set. Read Holland's papers etc., but I'm out of my
field. Thanks.

Tom
