It doesn’t seem that long ago
that we would pour over a hurricane map provided in the food stores or in our
newspapers and plot hurricanes by marking their progress with an x ! We would
also follow the hurricane advisories on battery operated radios.
Now we receive hurricane
tracking information regularly on television and via the internet. I was even
able to add data to my “smart” phone, so that I can continue to use the
internet throughout the hurricane “unless the whole island goes down”, the BTC
technician advised me when he set it up on my phone.
We’ve come a long way, baby!
