SCHEDULE UPDATE:
The 2025 HURREVAC Webinar Series will now take place from July 28 to July 31 due to unavoidable scheduling conflicts with the original May dates.
In the meantime, we encourage users to take advantage of our new Quick Guide to HURREVAC videos and in-app training modules.
Registration is open for the National Hurricane Program’s free annual HURREVAC webinar series. Government emergency managers are invited to join us each day from July 28 to July 31, 2025.
New HURREVAC users who have not yet had an opportunity to get comprehensive training are strongly encouraged to attend. Returning HURREVAC users are also welcome to use this opportunity to refresh their skills and get the latest information about NOAA’s forecast products and services for the 2025 season.
The four sessions will focus on these themes:
- Monday, July 28 – Intro to HURREVAC
- Tuesday, July 29 – Wind Forecast Features
- Wednesday, July 30 – Storm Surge and Flooding Hazards
- Thursday, July 31 – Evacuation Timing Features
You must register for each day you plan to attend.
What to expect
All sessions will go live at 2 PM EDT and run for approximately 2 hours.
The first half of each session will be devoted to a presentation of hurricane-related concepts and walk-through of related tools in HURREVAC. After a short break, the second half of each session will be devoted to applied demonstrations and exercises. Follow the links in the list above to find more details about the topics that will be covered each day. This arrangement is intended to build concepts gradually through the course of the week, while mixing in opportunities to practice skills and ask questions.
FAQ
Please plan to join the webinars on a device with a stable internet connection and a screen that is large enough to resolve details of the HURREVAC workspace. We strongly recommend using a laptop or office workstation instead of a phone screen. You may simply watch the webinar, or follow along with the demos in your own HURREVAC account if you have a second screen.
For those who are unable to attend the webinars (partially or entirely), or would like to review the material at a later time, recordings of each session will also be posted to the HURREVAC YouTube channel prior to the start of the next day’s session.
