Looks like the NHC has lost one hurricane specialist and added one senior hurricane specialist. Jamie Rhome's left the NHC, it looks like. Michael Brennan's also new, I believe.

It's also a promotion, the page says he's the new director of operations.
He must have agonized over the decesion. More money and a tropical paradise. Or, just a tropical paradise.

The official press release says that Knabb is actually making a return to the islands, having left University of Hawaii in 2001 to join the NHC.
