Re: Category 5 Hurricane Rtia Moves Westward in the Gulf

You are correct. The Hurricane Hunter Aircraft were moved from the gulf in advance of Katrina to Dobbins Air Reserve Base in Marietta, Ga which is a suburb just to the north of Atlanta. Thusly it probably will take them a little longer to get to the gulf for their runs than if they were at the AFB they were stationed at originally.....
