Couldn't decide which forum this belonged in, so I'm putting it here ...

Full Story

Two of the nation's most prominent hurricane forecasters are launching a new crusade to help Americans deal with storms and other disasters -- and they hope to enlist recruits during this week's major hurricane conference in Fort Lauderdale.

''This may be the most important thing I've ever done,'' said Max Mayfield, former director of the National Hurricane Center in West Miami-Dade County.

He and television forecaster Bryan Norcross are developing an Internet clearinghouse for preparedness and post-disaster advisories issued by government emergency managers in South Florida and around the nation.


I guess we'll have more info after the conference, but from what I see this looks like a good (if ambitious) idea. Hope it works out.

When that site comes out it will be at the top of my bookmarks. I wish I could go to that conference.
