Tropical Storm Fay #2

The forecasted track for Tropical Storm Fay has moved slightly west, but this is still very much a storm we need to pay close attention to. Savannah is well within the 3 and 5 day cones being forecasted by the National Hurricane Center. With the current forecasted track, we could have very strong winds close to Savannah on the western side.




The Hurricane Watch Net has been activated on 14.325 USB. Monitors on the #monitor IRC channel reported that the net was looking for Cuban stations at 2100Z.
