Re: Hatteras is getting hit

Here is an example of what I think that Rabbit was referencing:

HURRICANE ALEX POSITION ESTIMATE
NWS TPC/NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER MIAMI FL
12 PM EDT TUE AUG 03 2004

AT 12 PM EDT THE CENTER OF HURRICANE ALEX WAS ESTIMATED NEAR
LATITUDE 34.9 NORTH...LONGITUDE 75.6 WEST OR ABOUT 25 MILES SOUTH
OF CAPE HATTERAS NORTH CAROLINA.

FORECASTER FRANKLIN

They are issued during the hours when an Advisory is not being issued and the storm is close to land. Data source is normally radar.
