Hey Scott thanks for that.
I found this Navy link:

What does "CPA" mean?
It's showing Port Canaveral 82 NM
I wasn't clear on what that ment.

Thanks again



CPA is Closest Point of Approach. Or how close the CENTER of the Storm is to the City or Naval Base listed.

Great thanks to all who donated and everyone who uses the site as well. Site designed for 1920x1080+ resolution.
When in doubt, take the word of the National Hurricane Center.
