Re: Hurricane Frances In the Morning

The StormCarib site has an interesting tool that lets you key in your lat. and long. and takes the current forecast storm positions to show you how close the eye of the storm will get to you and when. It draws a map of the current track projection with your location highlighted. Looks like I'll only be 55 miles from the eye Saturday night. Here's the URL for the Closest Point of Approach tool:

Which quadrant of this storm is expected to have the most/least rain and highest/lowest winds? Just wondering if we'll be on the best or worst side of this as it approaches and passes us. Thanks.
