Summary:The National Hurricane Center (NHC) collects datasets with all storms in North Atlantic, the North Atlantic Hurricane Database (HURDAT). For all sorms, we have the location of the storm, every six jours (at midnight, six a.m., noon and six p.m.). Note that we have also the date, the maximal wind speed - on a 6 hour window - and the pressure in the eye of the storm. It is possible to run the following function library(XML) extract.track=function(year=2012,p=TRUE){ First, we need to extract t.
