How did the TC guy get both storms on the same map? Every link I click only ever shows one storm at a time... I wanna track Ike and Hanna on one map like he did...

That was a bleature, but we could re-introduce something like that down the road (we've gotten a number of requests for it).

Does this automatically update? I'd love to have it constantly running on a spare computer, just showing storm data.

Yes, although it only runs on our servers, unless we were to share the code. Alternatively, you can start collecting it from the NWS and build your own. :-)

Ah, I meant more as in, if I were to keep stormpulse.com open all the time, would it automatically refresh and update and such?
