Do you know the difference between a Tropical Cyclone Public Advisory, a Tropical Cyclone Discussion, and a Tropical Weather Outlook?

Before hurricane season ramps up, take a few minutes to brush up on the products issued by the National Hurricane Center.

NHC just updated its guide explaining what each product is, who it’s for, and when it’s issued: https://t.co/WkMivYJTPi
