The Legal Addiction claims me

#1 Postby cswitwer » Sun Sep 19, 2004 12:57 am

So I've wanted to contribute something really meaningful to the Board lately, and I thought that since it's 2am maybe nobody would be thinking about that 2am Jeanne advisory. So I went to NHC and kept clicking "reload" hoping to get to post a 2am discussion for the first time.

Reload.

Reload.

Reload.

Oh, it says the next advisory is at 5am.

Apparently, I've watched the models too much today (I mean, this whole month!)!!

I better go to bed soon or I'll be posting Sponge Bob songs too!

NHC takes forever to upload their data...
If you don't like looking through massive ftp folders...
I recommend http://www.wunderground.com/tropical They have it quickly.

Yup, the National Hurricane Center issues Intermediate Advisories when there are watches and/or warnings in effect.
