Re: LI 'Canes

Thanks for the interesting link, Phil. I stand corrected - sounds as though the people of LI have endured some powerful storms over the years. Hopefully, 2004 won't be one of those years.

Talking about the LI Express - 70MPH!!! Wow! When was the last time a hurricane moved that fast? I would have thought a hurricane moving at such a fast pace would have trouble in maintaining CAT 3 intensity. Obviously not in this case. I don't like the sound of those 183mph gusts either!

Good luck for the season ahead!
