USGS talk tonight: Could hurricane-like storm hit state?

Original post made on Feb 25, 2010

The USGS ARkSTORM project considers the possibility of a hurricane-like storm striking the West Coast and staying for weeks, as happened in the winter of 1861. A talk is set for 7 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 25, at USGS offices in Menlo Park.

Too bad there wasn't more notice, I know a lot of people who would have attended, but 1 days notice doesn't always work these days !
Perhaps the USGS could re-run this program at a later date, advertise said program and enjoy a larger turnout ! Sorry I missed
it, I am sure it was very interesting, especially with the back history from 1861. It's been 149 yrs, what do you think folks !!

Disappointed-
If you miss a public lecture at USGS you can almost always view the archived videostream of the talk. Lastweek's talk can be viewed at Web Link
