Default TS Bertha to be hurricane 72 hrs...

I'll let you all in on my favorite weather website run by the Meteorology
students at Plymouth State College, NH:

http://vortex.plymouth.edu/

The map is clickable to the NOAA current teletype texts.

What's great is their tropical weather tracker on the left panel which
takes you to:

http://vortex.plymouth.edu/tropical.html

All you need to know about every storm is here. Each new storm has its own
webpages from here.

The best thing is this website is very lightly loaded even during a major
event....so you don't have to click and click to get to see the pictures
and data of the storms.

Shhh....keep it in the community, ok?....(c;

TS Bertha will be a hurricane in 72 hours headed for the Outer Banks of NC.
Let's all hope she turns to seaward and doesn't ruin the beach communities
again....
