Re: where are the Yucatan radio/TV/media links?

Neither of those radar sites works for me (one gives a page not found, one just does not load).

Looking at the satellite presentation, I must agree with Thunderbird12, this is going to be a major, major disaster, barring an entirely unexpected and extremely unlikely weakening. I still believe that the wind estimates may be a bit low, perhaps, but that Dean will likely intensify at least a little more prior to landfall. I keep thinking back to some of the models that forecasted what is happening, intensity-wise at least - those earlier models forecasted a Cat 5 hurricane in the NW Caribbean - they were off on the eventual location back then, but they were not far off intensity-wise, it appears (some forecasted 190, and it's probably going to be 165-175, which is not that far off).
