What about Maria?
From my inbox:

Thanks Land for your e-mails.

The media continues to hide much information. Have you heard about Hurrican Maria? Go to this link for latest advisory: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/text/refresh/MIATCPAT4+shtml/042032.shtml?

On August 2, the NOAA issued a news release that the bulk of hurricanes is yet to come. See this link: http://www.noaanews.noaa.gov/stories2005/s2484.htm

NOAA: August 2005 Update to Atlantic Hurricane Season Outlook: http://www.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/products/outlooks/hurricane.html

Of course, it should not be a surprise that NBC was able to censor remarks make Friday night on national TV from rapper Kanye West. Here is a link with the story: http://www.azcentral.com/ent/celeb/articles/0902west.html

Sobering thoughts.

Sincerely,

Rick

2. what do you hear?
I are seeing "no threat to land" but then again, NO's levees were suppose to have "survived" katrina.


here is the latest on Maria: http://today.reuters.com/investing/financeArticle.aspx?type=bondsNews&storyID=2005-09-04T155053Z_01_N04461025_RTRIDST_0_WEATHER-HURRICANE-MARIA.XML

does not sound bad, but contradicts the above advisories.

5. Latest I read is that it's predicted to stay in the Atlantic, but
that really means nothing as hurricanes have proved to be unpredictable in their paths.

6. 5-day prediction keeps it way out in the Atlantic and turning EAST

http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/index.shtml? shows color.

I expect there'll be at least another big storm, but Maria doesn't look like the one.
