Last year I used a combination of r/hurricane, weather underground pro, and my weather radar pro. I am wanting to forgo Reddit for obvious reasons, and wondering if any one knows of any good fediverse sources, and or better apps. Also this is my first post after lurking a bit, and a few comments.

I’ve always just used https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/ for official data and https://www.windy.com/ to check out stuff like pressure and wind speed
I use the NOAA Hurricane Center site, then if it gets close enough RadarScope.
The NHC site for official forecasts/updates and the HWRF site for spaghetti models and more data than I will ever understand
Tropical Tidbits, Pivotal Weather, the NHC’s website, and a few others.
Tropical Tidbits, the NHC’s webpage, and a few others. Spaghettimodels.com is great as well.
earth.nullschool.net is a pretty cool visualizer of all things meteorological.

Great site.
Tropical weather on discord, they moved from Reddit https://discord.gg/tropicalweather
If you’re on Android and already know how to interpret raw radar maps, wX

This is a new Atlantic Ocean / Gulf of Mexico tropical weather blog from the meteorologists of Space City Weather (of local
Houston fame). They’ve always done a good job when things get nearby Houston, so I have high hopes for this as well.
/r/tropicalweather has always been a good resource as well… this is one of the things I have no problem going back to Reddit for specifically.
