Review
This page is devoted to the hurricanes and tropical storms of 1999. NCDC archives the climatic data, satellite images, and radar data related to these storms. A good deal of the surface data collected by National Weather Service offices and other airports, as well as cooperative stations, is available via the NCDC Get/View Data page. NCDC has special reports and summaries that put these and other global climate events in historical perspective-- Worldwide Weather Events--1999. Finally, NCDC reports on the global climate and places monthly temperatures, precipitation and extremes in historical perspective-- The Climate of 1999.
