  I just got news that there is a cyclone heading towards Samoa .....
  I need help to find a site to let me follow the cyclone ....  The reason being that my brother in law lives there and the family would like to know more on this ... if anyone knows of a site that can have us follow the path of the cyclone . I would really appreciate it ...
Thanks

I think the worst of it has missed Samoa. No casualties or serious damage reported on the islands. The air force is up there now looking for missing fisherman in the aftermath, so there may be some loss of life there  :(

Thanks was able to get the satelite map and got to look at the path of the cyclone ... Took some finger hammering on the links but was finaly able to get what I was looking for .
Ian .. you are right in saying that the worst is over .. next time I think I will IM you and ask about the weather ... Would save me time and finger tips .....
We where not able to reach François or Zita for the last three days to get some news on how things where going ... still dont now but atleast we now know that it did not have a direct hit on the islands ...
