Hurricane Tracking Maps Now Available
The Virgin Islands Territorial Management Agency (VITEMA) has announced that 2017-2018 Hurricane Tracking maps are now available throughout the Virgin Islands.
Do not rely on having electrical power or batteries to connect cell phones and computers with outside weather services.
Using a manual chart in conjunction with your digital monitoring is an excellent way to back up your storm tracking during emergencies. With a locally-zoned hurricane tracking map, you can also more easily determine how far away from you the eye of the storm is.
