The NHC Graphical Tropical Weather Outlook (GTWO) in shapefile format is an experimental product
that the National Hurricane Center is testing during the 2010 hurricane season.
The NHC Graphical Tropical Weather Outlook (GTWO) indicates significant areas of disturbed weather and their
potential for development out to 48 hours. The Outlook also provides the chance of development
(in percent, from 0 to 100 in ten percent increments) of each disturbance.
The areas represent areas of significant distrubed weather and their potential for development out to 48 hours.

GENPROB
The chance of development (in percent, from 0 to 100 in ten percent increments) of each disturbance
GENCAT
A three-tierd, categorical genesis forecast for the next 48 hours. The probabilities assigned to each category are adjusted to reflect the latest verification from the latest hurricane season. As a result, the categories may change depending on future verification studies.
Low
Probablility of genesis is less than 30% (2010)
Medium
Probability of genesis from 30% - 50% (2010)
High
Probability of genesis greater then 50% (2010)
BASIN
the ocean where the tropical cyclone is located
