    OMG!... Is that what i think it is on the right of that picture? Is that the UK?

    No, that's the west coast of Ireland! There is some bad weather forecast for the south of the country, especially early in the day so the current track of Lisa doesn't fit in with what we will getting tomorrow morning. I think tomorrow's forecast potential storm is actually an off shoot of Jeanne. Not too sure on that though.

    oh heres something to try

    REPEATING THE 11 AM AST POSITION...42.0 N... 36.8 W. MOVEMENT
    TOWARD...EAST-NORTHEAST NEAR 30 MPH. MAXIMUM SUSTAINED WINDS... 75
    MPH. MINIMUM CENTRAL PRESSURE... 987 MB.

    using this link below you can find out how far away Lisa is from your town

    http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/~cvm/latlongdist.html

    a list of towns coordinates can be found below

    http://www.bcca.org/misc/qiblih/latlong_oc.html#IRELAND

    remember the NHC uses decimalisation and the other two use the older measuring system. 0.1 degrees is equal to 6 minutes.

    heres one I made earlier :D (for shannon airport
