Russell,

I am in Austin, TX and we only caught some mild winds from the west side of 
the hurricane.  I have been looking for a clean hi-res (>= 1280x1024) image 
(visible satellite) of the hurricane at it's peak (IIRC ~500-600 miles off 
the coast when winds were at 175mph), but haven't found a good one yet.  Any 
pointers?

Cheers,
-Neil.
