FL Hurricane.com needs more bandwidth, and infastructure
and ohter upgrades to maintain itself. This can get very expensive during the active season, so I'm requesting donations at the moment. (The service will remain free
and adless as long as possible) All donations will go straight to hardware upgrades or bandwidth costs for flhurricane.com to ensure downtime is minimal.
Average cost per month ranges from $100 in the off season to over $1000 during peak events.
This month we have a goal to equal the cost for the summer months, which for June should be around the average, and higher than average in July, and very high in August.
