Hey everyone,

I am new to the board and was simply looking to better educate myself on storms and their forecasting. I have to say the amount of information you all have accumulated here is daunting to say the least. However, since we do the clean-up work on these systems I am very excited to start leaning more about them. I was actually prompted to start researching this more since things have been slow for us this season and we have some down time. I also saw the story about the project Bill gates is funding that has patents on the floating barge systems that pump water from the bottom of the ocean up to cool topside temps. I know it is a bit off topic but do any of you think his idea has merit iven the scope of the undertaking?

I really look forward to learning a ton from you all.
