Re: NHC Track

I live in Titusville, and if this thing brings wind less than 90 mph, I'll be going on my thirteenth storm chase

the first were:
TS Jerry 1995, 40 mph (not technically a "chase", but i consider it one because on teh bus ride home from school I got a few pics
Coastal storm, March 1996, 60 mph (parents drove)
Bertha, 1996 at beach after storm missed
Earl 1998-outer bands
Georges, 1998-outer bands (from north Titusville)
Mitch, 1998--65 mph winds at concrete/metal pier at Jetty Park near Cocoa Beach
Floyd, 1999-60 mph, morning after
Irene, 1999-morning at peak 65 mph
Gabrielle, 2001, 60 mph
Henri, 03--actually walked because the wind was only 30 with very light rain
severe storm, 6-7-04, Melbourne to Titusville, first I drove in
Hurricane Charley, 85mph, first hurricane Ive chased on my own

dont really know if my several attempts from my car to photograph lightning count as storm chases

If Frances brings winds higher than 90mph I'll be doing all the chasing form inside my house
(I am certain the winds will not exceed 100mph)
