    A question: What causes the water past NC to be drastically cooler? 

    I would also mention the Labrador current. Aided by the Coriolis force, and the void left by the Gulf Stream, pulling off to the northeast north of Hatteras at Hatteras. It originates off of the Labrador Sea, and transports cooler ocean water to the south and west to just above the point where the Outer Banks swings due north at Hatteras or Buxton.

    I don't think you could get a more precise hit that that on PR. It just bulldozed through almost dead center of the island. Damn

    With such a large city being blasted with such incredibly high wind velocities.

    This may be a dumb question, but is there a reason why we don't launch a drone from the Hurricane Hunters inside the eye to provide real-time data?

    Good question. Problem here is that narrow diameter of the eye-how to control it.
