Hurricane Season
The height of the political season is also the height of hurricane season. Coincidence?
If you want to keep up with what’s happening out in the tropics, the National Hurricane Center has maps of the activity going on in both the Atlantic and Pacific. www.nhc.noaa.gov

And Then There’s Bele Chere
Is it also any coincidence that Bele Chere occurs during hurricane season? If you’re going to the downtown Asheville festival this weekend, or think you want to go, Mountain Xpress has a great online guide with maps, music samples, a live web cam and more about the 30th Anniversary of the festival. Check it out at www.mountainx.com/belechere

No matter what you do this weekend, be safe and have a good one.
