The Hurrican Advisory System Has Improved
May 31, 2009 8:30 am NewsLiving in the Pacific Northwest, we do not live anywhere near an area has hurricanes and we are quite happy with that. We do have family that lives near the gulf and so when we see a Hurricane Advisory for that area we are naturally concerned. At least today we can keep fairly good track of the progress of the storm by following the advisories. Not too many years ago we would hear about one coming down on their area and then not be able to get much more information. That resulted in a lot of phone calls to check on their safety and well being.
