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....

If you run the JAVA on:

you can see the eye forming at the end of the picture sequence....

Sure is a pretty day in NH on their webcam. All the snow has melted,
too!...(c;

This webcam had a big snowstorm on it one day so hard you couldn't see
anything out the window. Later when the snow stopped, but before the plows
showed up to clean the lots, it was like a marshmallow pillow with bumps in
it where the cars were completely BURIED!

I was born and raised in the Finger Lakes region of upstate NY. Larry
KNOWS lake-effect snow!

Our school used to hand out mimeographed warnings to us kids to stay away
from the power lines you could easily reach from the piled up snowbanks
from the plows.....Some kids got burned to death!

At 23,000 VAC, snowbanks conduct electricity very well.
