... Jim Williams created hurricanecity in 1997 but at the time the site was called "jim's hurricane web" and registered the domain www.hurricanecity.com in 1998. The site is called hurricanecity for several reasons,first and most importantly the site features the city most threatened when a storm is on the move. The second reason is the City Database where you can search for your city or island to learn about it's hurricane history. The third reason is the City Rankings where Jim has created a ranking scale for what cities & Islands get affected most by tropical systems in the entire Atlantic basin. Another reason for the name hurricanecity are the predictions made at the beginning of each hurricane season for the top cities & Islands that Jim thinks are at high risk based on a simple mathematical formula. Since Jim started making city predictions in 2003 he has nailed at least 4 to 6 cities out of 20 each year that ended up getting hit. In 2005 on the hurricane season kickoff show Jim predicted almost exactly what happened as Katrina would hit mid season watch (3min).

Hurricanecity is equipped to ride out a hurricane & provide live video coverage during any hurricane with backup power . Since 1978 jim has been monitoring the tropics very closely and in 1997 decided to create hurricanecity which was named "jim's hurricane web" at that time. The idea of this site is that it allows the visitor to feel close to the storm without feeling the affects,unless you are in the path of the storm. As soon as a city in either the Caribbean, the United States or Central America is within the strike probabilities, the city or island projected at highest risk will be featured. The information provided in the links on the hurricanecity front page is information gathered through years of research, and the links for radio,radar & cams are gathered from many hrs of surfing the web for links. When a city is threatened in the Atlantic basin that city will be featured on the front page to the left of the tracking chart. The tracking chart will also show a red dot indicating to click for info from the featured city. When you click this link a page opens with all localized info from current observations,webcams,radio stations,local emergency management,news,stats and more.
