For those who may be in the path of what now appear to be three possible storms currently in eastern/southern USA waters, I have updated my PPC Radar page to include a "Hurricane" link containing storm info resources. These pages are optimized for low bandwidth for use on mobile devices laptops with cellular connections, plus, since the links attempt to go directly to images, they load fast when things are slow and often load when the normal weather pages are too bogged down as storms approach. PPC Weather Radar is at; <http://bevhoward.com/storm/ppcrad.htm> for static low bandwidth images and <http://bevhoward.com/storm/ppcradL.htm> for animated high bandwith images... the above pages allow toggling between the two bandwidth versions. A direct link to the hurricane page is <http://bevhoward.com/storm/Storm.htm> ...which should remain a static link. Feedback is always appreciated. Beverly Howard [MS MVP-Mobile Devices] |

I'd put an index.html page at URLs such as http://bevhoward.com/storm/ so people don't access your directory structure. It is good to associate a face with a frequent poster. I hope everyone rides out the hurricane season well.

fwiw, the storm page <http://bevhoward.com/storm/Storm.htm> has been updated with New Orleans Evacuation routes (images and text) Cuba Radar Mosaic on <http://bevhoward.com/storm/ppcrad.htm> currently shows full storm over western Cuba. Beverly Howard |

Thanks... Most of the directories have index files... but, I leave some which have pages not linked from elsewhere without them to facilitate finding reference pages such as the storm directory which tends to change with the weather. Beverly Howard [MS MVP-Mobile Devices] |
