Why the forecast cone of uncertainty is inadequate for Hurricane Joaquin


I think the cone is pretty much ineffective all the time - NHC really needs to improve visual aids, how about the wind field/strength on an interactive map, animated, real satellite and radar overlays & lose the crayon drawings pretty plz....  here's a thought, since the water is what kills most ppl in a cane, how about integrating that in the interactive map???  save the "cone of error" for your personal use to grade your forecasts, the public has already graded them

not to mention that the public faces of various networks don't even know what the cone of error is...
