The National Hurricane Center has up-to-date information about current hurricanes. (Hover your mouse over current storms to learn more.)
The menu bar on the left has lots of additional hurricane information including historical storms, frequently asked questions, and names of storms.
The Hurricane Preparedness Guide is a great short resource to learn more about what hurricanes are, how their intensity is scaled, and what the hazards are like storm surges, and how prediction works. This is a great resource for interpretation on the floor!
Learn why don't we get hurricanes in California (or Seattle.)
