Hello all and prayers for those in Erma's path. What I've done is crated a word doc titled: Mike's Hurricane Tracking Chart.
I've got my local latitude and longitude numbers for my location. Plus various other Florida cities lat and long numbers too. Then I've many Caribbean Island's lat and long numbers. So at the top of the document for this current storm; Erma, I keep a running list of all the updates of this storm. IE: date and time of most current update, current lat and long numbers, current direction, current wind speed and minimum Barometric Pressure. Then I check in about every hour or so with the National Hurricane Center's very accessible and easy to navigate webpage on the current hurricane, along with other current tropical systems. This website totally rocks. Here's the link to that great webpage: http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/mobile/ If you go to this webpage with your IPhone, go down to the bottom of your screen and double tap on the Share Tab. Then scroll to "Add to home screen". Bingo; now you have a quick way to see what kind of hurricane or tropical storm action is going on. I've actually created a folder on my home screen, titled "Mike's Weather Folder". I put this link right in that folder, along with several other weather apps and a local tide app. If anyone would like a copy of my Hurricane Tracking Chart, with a lot of GPS numbers for different Florida cities and many Caribbean Islands so you can get a better visual on a hurricane's current location and track; just reply back and I'll send it to you. Everyone please don't take this storm lightly. This is still a killer hurricane, but it's truly anyone's guess right now exactly where it will make landfall in Florida. So, please as they say, keep a weather eye. Michael D. Ulrich Just an ordinary average blind guy! Florida Council of the Blind Fundraising Committee Member !**********!

Hi all. While I am not in the path of any hurricanes, I have family and friends who are. Can anyone please point me to an accessible app that allows me to track a storm? Thanks.
