Seaswing, dark skies, but not much else --- yet. Guess we're supposed to get the full 9 yards tonight. Astronomical tides, too, so there will likely be a pretty good storm surge. My daughter is sandbagging this afternoon. We haven't, but probably should :roll: Stay clear of twisters, etc.

Don't apologize...that's how we learn here! I used to not know either. That's what makes this board great. No one minds when we need to know or ask about something that we don't understand or hadn't heard of before.

Here are a couple of links that will help:
http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/CI-chart.html (This shows what each number means -- look at 4 to understand how it applies to Henri)

http://www.angelfire.com/fl4/eastcoastt ... lained.htm

http://www.tropicalupdate.com/atlantic_ ... e_to_d.htm

And here's the page where you get the current numbers:
