At the National Hurricane Center Assistant Amateur Radio
Coordinator
Julio
Ripoll, WD4R, says several of the surface reports received via the
Center's WX4NHC were cited in the various hurricane advisories.
"The hurricane forecasters are always interested in what is actually
happening on the ground, as it happens," he notes. "It helps them
visualize the storms' effect on people and property as they analyze
scientific data."
According to Ripoll, the new VOIPWX Net <>,
which
combines IRLP and EchoLink has been a tremendous asset. "This has
opened
up a whole new resource of stations, VHF/UHF/Mobile/Techs, that we
would
have not heard of on HF," he said.
