NOTE:   Pacific Ocean analyses north of 30oN and Atlantic Ocean analyses north of 31oN are provided by NCEP's Ocean Prediction Center.
The Tropical Prediction Center analyzes features south of 31oN in the Atlantic (including Florida, Mexico and the Gulf of Mexico) and south of 30oN in the Pacific Ocean.  However, surface observations outside of HPC's area of responsibility are still depicted.
