This layer depicts active tropical storms. The track shows the estimated direction of the tropical storm's track. The data come from GDACS (European Commission Joint Research Center) and further analysis is applied by the WFP OSEP GIS. The layer is updated automatically. If there are no active storms, no data are displayed (pink tiles).
