Re: developing system
Fri Sep 23 2005 02:18 PM

With all the discussions of W, WNW, NW, NNW, or N and trying to figure out for myself which way it is going, I decided to use FSU's GIS enabled radar to find the distances and bearing from a singular point (per each radar update) to three select cities. This is not exact science but based solely on these numbers (which in all reality mean absolutely nothing), anyone can see that the hurricane regularly makes jogs (demonstrated in the table by the change in distance over time from a given point).

What does this all mean? Nothing spectacular.

DISTANCE/BEARING FROM POINT ON RITA
ZULU TIME LAFAYETTE BEAUMONT GALVESTON
