Weather models are special alogrithyms that a computer and software uses to predict or forecast what will happen. The alogrithyms use current weather data with estimated future data and collect all of that to provide a possible forecast. You can view the different hurricane models at http://www.stormpulse.net On the right hand side of the radar, you will see a feature named Forecast Models. Turn that feature on and the forecast models will show up on the radar.
