    Looks like a very wet weekend thanks to Bonnie. Real shame that Island Aid (http://www.tarponrodeo.org/GITR/Home.html) will be a no go (or at least badly impacted).

    I use WeatherUnderground (http://www.wunderground.com/) for storm tracking and they have a feature called WunderMap. Bonnie's: http://www.wunderground.com/wundermap/?lat=25.4&lon=-80.3&zoom=6&type=hyb&rad=0&wxsn=0&svr=0&cams=0&sat=0&riv=0&mm=0&hur=1&hur.wr=0&hur.cod=1&hur.fx=1&hur.obs=1&fire=0&ft=0&sl=0

    Clicking on the wind/hurricane symbol will give you estimated date/time and wind speeds at that position.

    Thanks for those links!!!

    BoatUS has a Tracking Center on their website, going thru that you see projections, current radar and one window is a cool one I always print called the Spaghetti Model.

    It shows about 12 track projections using various formulas, and it DOES look like spaghetti!! LOL!

    Sadly, ten of the twelve lines on Bonnie hit New Orleans, with one as far east as the Florida panhandle and two as far west as Port Arthur/Orange..

    Stay dry!!!

    Glad you like. There are a few check boxes at the bottom and one overlays the computer models with clickable position points...

    I missed'em the first few times myself.

    Neat how it gives distance to a selected city.

    Bonnie was a non-event, at least on the Northshore. Seemed to be more thunder and lightning than rain. Our lights flickered a few times but that was it.

    Glad to hear Grand Isle had a big crowd: More Than 10,000 Turn Out For Island Aid Concert

    Yeah, it was a non-event in New Orleans too. I did sleep downtown last night and hear a gunshot though so always something to excite us here!
