[MR] Holy Hannah!

[Janie B.]

As His Excellency Donal pointed out, the media gets tunnel vision and we 
only hear about the immediate threat.

My mother's hobby (if you consider the amount of time she spends on this, 
it's a hobby) is to track hurricanes.  She hates the "we're all gonna DIE" 
mentality of the news media (Mom calls them the "Weather Ghouls"), so she 
gets all her information straight from the source...

The main site:  http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

The parent site:  http://www.noaa.gov/

I highly suggest bookmarking at least one of those.  Those five-day cones 
can be quite illuminating.

In Service,

Lady Gwendolyn Fitch
