An interactive archive of tropical cyclones that passed within 500 km of Hawaii since 1950, with replayable official forecasts.

Its careful notes on NOAA sources, missing coverage, rejected data points, and provisional storms make this more than a storm list: it is a transparent reconstruction of how forecasts met reality.
