VoIP Hurricane Net Activation – Hurricane Maria – Friday September 16th, 2011
Hello to all..
..VoIP Hurricane Net Activation for Hurricane Maria for impact on Southeast Newfoundland Canada to commence at 10 AM EDT lasting until approximately 6 PM EDT..
..Hurricane Warnings are now in effect for Newfoundland from Arnolds Cove to Brigus South with a Tropical Storm Warning in effect for Newfounldand from Stones Cove to Arnolds Cove and from Brigus South to Charlottetown..
Hurricane Maria is now expected to bring hurricane force conditions to Southeast Newfoundland Canada. While water temperatures are quite cold in Southeast Newfoundland, Maria’s fast forward speed will preclude significant weakening as it approaches Newfoundland resulting in potential hurricane force conditions for the province. We are looking for any reporting stations directly in the affected area of Newfoundland or any relays into the affected area.
For the latest advisory information including watches and warnings, you can go to the VoIPWXNet web site and click Atlantic Tropical Products and click on the advisory information for Hurricane Maria under the Atlantic Tropical Products section. You can also gather the advisory information from the National Hurricane Center web site at the following link:

Also, the Canadian Hurricane Centre is issuing advisories on Hurricane Maria. That information can be seen via the link below:

Listen Only IRLP/EchoLink capability include the following systems (We ask that listen-only folks please provide this capability and connect by formal activation time if possible):
