04 Oct Starr Update – Tropical storm Oho
Don tried to send a picture of Tropical Storm Oho but could not get the picture to send due to his limited internet on the boat.
I grabbed a couple of pictures that show the storm, and how it is working its’ way northeast while Starr is working its’ way southwest. Hopefully these are somewhat reminiscent of the pictures Don was trying to send.
These pictures explain why Starr is moseying south waiting for an opportunity to turn west.

Don & Sharry: Once I received your info about Oho I quickly put together a Power Point for the oceanography lab class I am teaching at Glendale College. I had used your course from Cape Flattery to illustrate my lab exercise on Pilot Charts, Tropical Storms – Hurricanes etc. and the class has been tracking Oho’s progress. I have had my students following your course since you left and Oho gave me the perfect segue to weather, significant wave heights & Beaufort scale etc. etc. My students have been intrigued by your adventure and have asked endless questions about the boat, ( I have shown them Starr from pictures of us in Croatia and from your refit blog). Keep the info coming and sail safe. Cheers, Peter
