[LTER-luq-pi] Most likely Hurricane Maria track from NHC looks like Hurricane Georges

[DJean Lodge]

Dear all,

The projected track of Hurricane Maria from the National Hurricane
Center resembles Georges, making landfall near in SE PR around Humicao
with 140 mph winds late on Wed and exiting Thursday morning on the NW
coast near Isabella.

It's not going to be pretty, but Hurricane Irma may have done us a
favor by trimming trees in the NE corner. I suspect El Verde will get
slammed.

Jean
