As one might suspect, the National Weather Service (NWS) Office of Meteorology Web site is a trove of useful meteorological hazard information. It includes information about the office, notices about the ongoing changes and modernization of the Weather Service, complete "Disaster Surveys" (evaluations of NWS performance before, during, and following disasters), a list of meetings and conferences, natural hazards statistics, a link to the hurricane watch office, a 1998 disaster map, and a list of the many NWS publications and hazard awareness materials available on-line.
