    <p class="MsoNormal">I was always curious what a hurricane would
      look like on a weather file, so I downloaded the current year
      weather file for Wilmington North Carolina, processed it and
      plotted the days around the time the hurricane struck.  Here are
      the results.  Take a look at the wind speed and rain plots. The
      wind speed reached a maximum of 61 MPH the morning of Sept. 14th
      and then dropped to 0 . The rainfall peaked at about an inch per
      hour the moring of Sept 14, stopped in the afternoon for a day,
      and then reached a higher peak of 2 inches per hour near midnight
      Sept. 15th.<br>

    <p class="MsoNormal"> I'm going to put these graphs on the White Box
      Technologies website as soon as my webmaster tells me how, so that
      I can update them onces a day over the next three days. <br>
