HOW FAR AWAY IS IT?
Every morning during the hurricane season I check THE NATIONAL HURRICANE CENTER/TROPICAL PREDICTION CENTER. The image above is from September 2, 2008. It was an active morning. You can see where danger is but how far away is it from from your front door?
Scroll down from the image on the NHC site and you will come to a lat/long distance calculator. To go to the Latitude/Longitude Distance Calculator click here ->

Lat/Lon Distance Calculator
adapted from the Great Circle Calculator
written by Ed Williams
Enter your latitude and longitude, easily obtained from GOOGLE EARTH and the latitude and longitude of the storm to find the distance between danger and your home, business or boat. Isn't technology grand?
But what are you going to do when your TV, Weather Radio, everything else fails when technology stops working? If you have the HURRICANE SURVIVAL GUIDE, advertised elsewhere on this site have no fear. This comprehensive text book not only teaches you how to determine distance on your own picture of the storm drawn by you on the HURRICANE FINDER CHART showing where your site of interest is located but will also indicate direction of the wind and its' strength days before arrival of the storm.
Remember technology always fails just when you need it most. Download the HURRICANE SURVIVAL GUIDE and use it to save the lives of your family and property.
Knowledge is power. Get some power today.
That's that for this.
Take care,
