Re: (meteorobs) Re: slow Sep 6/7 + virus



Norman, thanks for the warning about the "Good Times" virus!...I will keep
an eye out for it.

I found your hurricane wind reports interesting. I went back to work today
where we have a NOAA weather station set up which showed wind speeds for
Fran at my office at only 60 mph. I called NOAA and asked about the area I
lived at and they said gusts of up to a little less than 80 mph were
recorded. The local media had reported gusts a little further north of me at
150, but NOAA said the highest their equipment recorded anywhere was 134 mph.

I guess I must have listened to Danny Boy, as I thought Andrew gave you much
more. But glad it didn't...and I'll be hoping for the best for both of us
from now through November!
