More on hurricanes

Lots of good stuff on Slashdot today. CNN is carrying a story about how meteorological researchers and the NOAA are using supercomputers to predict storm paths and get information to the critical areas early enough to prevent as much damage and loss of life as possible.

UPDATE: I was waiting for this. Some experts are linking the recent spate of hurricane activity to global warming. Also, check out this really cool shot of Ivan from the international space station. Other images from the space station can be found here.
