Caribbean Hurricane Network -- Web Site
 
www.stormcarib.com. This is a really great and useful website that provide information on hurricane and tropical storm activity in the Caribbean. They've included maps, announcements from the National Weather Service as well direct reports regarding weather from those that live on the islands. My friends mentioned it to me when they were planning their trip to T&C last October.

Thanks Michelle.<BR>These sites can be really helpful when planning - especially with archived storm info...

Topping for all those planning during this hurricane season.

Michelle,<BR><BR>Thanks for the new link. Only this morning I had attempted to go to the site from my bookmarks only to find that the URL I had no longer exists. It's obviously changed since I last attempted to go there. I figured that gobeach.com didn't run it anymore, but am glad to find that Gert still has it going.<BR><BR>Thanks again.<BR><BR>

My pleasure! I've been montoring it like a hawk since we're leaving next Thursday for St. John.

Michelle,<BR><BR>Thanks for the great information, I have been looking for such a web site!!!

Michelle Jul 22nd, 2002 01:36 PM

Glad to help! Everyone keep your fingers crossed that no storms arise!

Here's another site with great weather info. Boat owners use it a lot.<BR><BR>http://www.meteo.an/meteo2/eng/index.htm

Thanks Sandy Feet! So now I can cross-reference and compare... I think I'm going to make myself crazy with this!

There is a great hurricane reporting net at www.gobeach.com They include live reports from people in the storms. Can't get better than that.

John:<BR><BR>stormcarib.com and gobeach.com are one in the same now. That was my own confusion, too. Now that we're in the season, when I tried to find gobeach, the page came back with an error.<BR><BR>I'm a correspondent for postings during the storms, so I was trying to locate it for this season and it's now at stormcarib.com, as Michelle said.<BR><BR><BR><BR>

Statia Jul 23rd, 2002 11:59 AM

I guess I should clarify....<BR><BR>stormcarib.com is the NEW link for gobeach.com's hurricane update page.<BR><BR>gobeach.com still gives travel info.<BR><BR>Let's all hope we have NO storms this year!
