Yep!  I believe it wwas hurricane Betsy in 1965 that went as far north as
Minnesota.  I have data here that far back and can look it up, but the data
doesn't tell me the strength of the storm -- just the beginning and the and
and the path in-between.  Betsy devastated New Orleans, but the levees
held.

According to my logs, you've been connecting fine, but not receiving
anything.  Joe's mother died on August 21.  High pressure systems coming in
from the west are what diverted Hannah from coming this way.  They were in
columns of two, two deep.

The file problem I had here has been fixed and everything is back to mormal.
