Hey Mike, could you record the radar images for a longer loop... there's only about 6 images in the current setup on the front page links. Looks more west, but its hard to tell with only six images... Eye is showing up nicely though


The link on the main page points directly at the Dutch Antilles weather website. I was in the process of writing a script to pull periodic radar images (what Mike does when he sets up custom radar loops for this site) and the entire site stopped responding, probably because it got overwhelmed with hits. It is too bad that someone can't get all these smaller weather sites linked into some common distribution method so that they don't get knocked offline when things like this happen.
