Hurricane Bill

It is that time of year again. I thought I would share a great tracking/imagery resource. Check out the different satellite imagery in the upper right corner and notice you can see all storms world wide listed by region on the left.

Very cool site. I'm a weather geek myself. Not really hurricane related but here are my two favorite radar sites:

I like that NWS map. Nice.

Intellicast has a pretty nice Google Earth style feed. You can animate it at the bottom and play with layers.

Intellicast has a pretty nice Google Earth style feed.

And Google Earth has KML's for all different weather stuff, one for 2009 Hurricanes is under 'Weather' and there is one for the Hurricane Hunters, amongst other good stuff, at this link.

I am also a radar geek... never thought of that term before, but I guess it fits. If you have an iPhone or iPod Touch, check out Radar Scope. Really cool and as close to realtime as you can get: http://basevelocity.com/RadarScope/

And... "I always drink coffee when I watch radar!"

Bill killed the flukin' for me that weekend and Danny put a hurtin' on what is left of the season this past weekend. It's alll over this Friday, 9-4-09.
Overall, one of the best flounder seasons we have had in a long time with a 10 lber for me and a seven for the bride and a reasonabely full freezer from 3-1/2 months of good fishing.

Here is a good weather site for wind speed and direction that I consult before we go offshore.

That's a good site.

Nice shots Pancoast. I really like the surfer in the tube, the sun through the clouds, and especially the last shot. I swear I can her the roar of the surf and cry of that gull in that one.
