MESSAGE BOARDS
A weather site MoneyPenny pointed out to me, comments about the various models, lots of people who know their stuff, can't recommend it enough. Throw them a couple of bucks if your home gets spared. The site is often overwhelmed with traffic:
storm2k.org
PREDICTIONS AND MODELS
National Hurricane Center (you can refresh it to get current track):
nhc.noaa.gov
Manny provided this link, which tracks various models:
midatlanticwx.com
Satellite view of storm:
ssd.noaa.gov
A site Fred Langford has found to be very useful (has a nice knots/miles per hour conversion chart):
intellicast.com
U.S. Navy hurricane site. This one has a large map with the locations of major cities, so it's more useful than the national hurricane center map:
nrlmry.navy.mil
This the Accuweather animated storm map from GroundZero. Accuweather appears to have a very good reputation:
hurricane.accuweather.com
The main Accuweather page:

The Boat US site from CalculatedRisk has some nice graphics all in one place:
boatus.com
Swiftmud site that Triffin posted. This one is interesting, it compares the NHC predicted path of the storm to the actual path of the storm as established by the planes that fly over them.
