Welcome to the Storm Center, where you can explore weather information, both for the past and the present. Computer technology has changed the way we see weather information, particularly here in south Florida. Each evening on the news, we can see weather patterns, from weather fronts and storm systems covering hundreds of miles to the neighborhood weather from the school down the street. But why wait for the news? This information is available on-line, at many of the sites below.
