Back and Tracking Ivan

6:30PM Update:
Recent Ivan recon report shows 943 mb, which is a good pressure drop. Ivan is gaining strength tonight.

From what I can see there is not much to be really all that confident in models for the long term, perhaps tomorrow.


Those with Charley and Frances photos that want to share them, please email them to john@flhurricane.com john is handling the photos.

Original Update
Hurricane Frances has gone through Florida and southern Georgia.

Ivan looks to be bearing down on Jamaica later in the week and crossing Cuba, folks along the gulf coast will want to watch it. Grenada much got the brunt of Ivan and is still reeling from the effects of it.

More to come.

We're back

We'll be updating hardware very soon thanks to all. More recognition will be coming shortly

Hurricane Victims also need help, for sure moreso than me, so groups such as the American Red Cross and the like also could use the help.
