Publisher's description of Eye of the Storm 3000

From Starstone Software Systems:

Eye of the Storm is your personal hurricane weather center. It tracks and plots hurricanes and their wind fields from the time they are born as tropical depressions until after landfall. Three different map styles are interactive and colorful and show the range and distribution of hurricane winds. Database driven, it includes over 2000 historical hurricane tracks for your own analysis and animation. Automatically downloads detailed advisory information via the Internet, plays audible watch and warning alerts, and includes customizable satellite image retrieval. All maps can be printed, or copied to the clipboard for pasting into other graphical programs.

Version 1.0 build 553 contains several minor bug fixes, usability enhancements, and the ability to automatically update future bug fixes.

Editor's review of Eye of the Storm 3000

• 4.0 stars

This application provides up-to-date storm tracking information as well as past tempest data. Eye of the Storm 3000's colorful and informative interface lets you view tropical storms, depressions, and hurricanes. It provides hourly updates including the name, track, and wind speeds reported by the National Hurricane Center. You'll be able to see possible hurricanes using 3D color, classic, or charted views. Although satellite screening is touted, we weren't able to load this feature. We couldn't find its audio notification of imminent storms either. On the plus side, we did like its animated time-lapse utility that tracked the exact path of previous storms. You'll receive several facts regarding hurricanes in Eye of the Storm 3000's daily facts section. Though it requires a sizeable amount of MBs and comes with a 14-day trial, this software proves worthy to users interested in current storm surveillance.

  "Excellent, fun application to have."

  by Chainmail2006 on August 12, 2007

  Pros: This is especially true if you are a "Weather Nut", a "Hurricane Tracker" and mostly if you live anywhere a "Hurricane" can hit. Personally, I love this program and found it works perfectly with "Vista". I waited to try this install until a couple of weeks ago when the storm season picks up and found it installed fine on my "Vista" computers. It gives you storm history, names, tracks accurately and all in all it's just a fun, useful, nice application to have.

  Cons: Although it's not a needed application and it is kind of expensive, I like it and have no cons to post except the price could be better.
