Great idea! Have you seen www.surfline.com? Maybe we could advertise there once we get the Pacific going (which wouldn't be a colossal amount of work with the systems we have in place...).
Advertise? You should partner with them. Their hurricane service is terrible.
Well, I'm sure this is useful in some manner. However, I've never even seen a hurricane, and a hurricane has never affected my life. So I'll leave the commentary for those people whose cat has been raped by a hurricane...

So cool! I've been playing on the site and I'm impressed. Who's your ideal customer? How do you plan on making money?
Ideally, anyone interested in this sort of information. That said, there's obviously an advanced tilt to the site right now to support our marketing strategy of going after the most avid enthusiasts first, and the general public second.
We are planning to provide some (hopefully) very useful localization features. Ads and sponsorships would be okay as well. We have sunk in personal investment, but we don't owe any outside financiers; read: we don't feel pressured to make huge sums, nor must we to make anyone happy.
Great work. Keep it up. Someone should buy these guys quickly. I see you guys are using S3. There's no doubt that you have a ton of info. The trick is not to overwhelm the user with that info but at the same time have it easy for them to access it and interpret it if they wanted.
S3, yes. We're happy so far.
Feel free to point out any trouble spots with information density vs. legibility.
Make it work on the cell phone.
FlashLite is the answer to getting the Flash component to work on something other than the iPhone :), and I haven't had the time to figure out how to make our ActionScript 2.0 / Flash Player 8 code compatible.
I'm pretty convinced that doing so would be profitable, of course. Problem is, I feel that way about more features/enhancements than we have the time for right now.
