i also use the NHC site. The graphical material is all Customary. However, parts of the "Public Advisory are dual (distances, wind speed, storm speed, pressure) while other parts (rainfall and storm surge) are Customary only. The "Forecast Advisory" is intended for marine interests and is nautical miles and knots. The main takeaway is that NHC is literally "the horse's mouth" for hurricane info. Everybody else uses their data and writes their own story around it. I like my info straight from the horse's mouth.
