I signed up to receive these via email, after Brettschneider mentioned that if the NWS had started using "Gulf of America" there should 1st have been a service change notice, so the SPC employee(s) using it was out of order. I figured I could get info more accurately & faster - if you wish to receive them, just click the link after "Subcribe" at the link above

here's the latest - it kinda brought a lump to my throat as I recently found, doing genealogy research, an article about my deceased uncle receiving an award & promotion for his 1st deployment in WWII, on Okinawa Shima
