Does anyone know what the coordinates are for the Herbert's boxes?
Other than the one at the hurricanecity site....this was the best I could find for box 1, I was unable to locate anything similar for box 2. Hope this helps you out.
Herbert's Box
As an aside, I'm not sure how accurate this image is as it looks to be a little larger than the actual box, but, it's a pretty fair assessment. Herbert's box is approximately 335mi. X 335mi. It is 69.2mi. between each degree of both longitude and latitude, which means the box is not quite 5 x 5 longitudinal/latitudinal degrees. (ie 15N to 20N and 60W to 65W.) Technically, the box is 4.84 x 4.84 lonitudinal/latitudinal degrees.
