    Here's a link to the National Data Buoy Center - "Hurricane Florence Special" page:

    https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/radial_search.php?storm=at1

    There's a way to display the buoy stations on an interactive map, I just haven't poked around enough yet to find it.
    However if you pull up an individual buoy, it displays the interactive map.

    These huge storms fascinate me. The kinetic and thermal physics involved are mind-boggling.
    I saw a blurb that suggested 10 TRILLION gallons of rain are in the picture. Think 15 million Olympic-sized swimming pools...

    I'm not a 'pray-type' guy. But I'm wishing for the best for all those whose lives will be affected by this hummer.
    Good Luck.

    No wonder. I used to use it all the time then all of a sudden they started sucking. I was like WTF?

    Close enough to for some reason this year not have to do the math on my age - except I've been off a year the entire time....

    My wife went to the store today - they were still out of water, so she picked up a 20 pack of beer. Hopefully we’ll be able to nurse it through the storm.
