Time change reminder for HURREVAC users

The recent change from daylight saving time to standard time means that products from the National Hurricane Center and other forecast agencies are available one hour earlier. These changes are automatically reflected in HURREVAC, but users tracking late-season tropical activity should be aware of the following times.

Regular (complete) advisories are now issued at 4 a.m., 10 a.m., 4 p.m., and 10 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. (In Central Standard Time: 3 a.m., 9 a.m., 3 p.m. and 9 p.m.)

Intermediate advisories are issued at 1 a.m., 7 a.m., 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. EST while watches and warnings are in effect. (In CST: Midnight, 6 a.m., noon, and 6 p.m.)

Tropical Weather Outlooks are issued around 1 a.m., 7 a.m., 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. EST.

By default, HURREVAC’s time display matches the system setting of your computer or device. There is no need to change any HURREVAC settings to account for the end of daylight saving time unless you manually set a custom time zone (UTC offset) in User Preferences.
