Grid of Hurricane Frequency in the Gulf of Mexico from 1851 to 2012.

Data provided by  National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

This hurricane dataset is a 10 minute grid based on a subset of the 1851 - 2012 hurricane tracks from the International Best Track Archive for Climate Stewardship (IBTrACS) and the National Hurricane Center. The grid has attributes added that allow analysis of hurricane frequency in the Gulf of Mexico. The grid only references systems that were Tropical Storm strength or greater. Only tracks that entered the Gulf of Mexico are included. (For example, storms that moved westward across Florida, but did not emerge into the Gulf, were excluded.)
