Could you please name the source for this map? --bender235 (talk) 01:24, 14 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I saw your message and I added the source. The tracks are my own work (based on known information) overlaid onto Google Earth. The Google logo is in the image but I also credited them. Thanks for pointing that out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CycloneSteve2 (talk • contribs) 03:46, 14 March 2009 (UTC)


 * What is "known information"? --bender235 (talk) 11:55, 14 March 2009 (UTC)


 * To be more specific, known information would be the references on the page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1780_Atlantic_hurricane_season). I'm new to this and I did not intend on breaking any protocol. I'll be happy to edit the image information again if needed.


 * No problem. I added it. By the way, I didn't meant to be harsh or something. --bender235 (talk) 21:13, 14 March 2009 (UTC)


 * No worries. You didn't sound harsh at all, you are just doing your job. Thanks for the update. —Preceding unsigned comment added by CycloneSteve2 (talk • contribs) 05:44, 15 March 2009 (UTC)


 * I think your map is incorrect, tho. As far as I know, Solano's Hurricane did not cross the Atlantic, but dissipated somewhere over Georgia. See also Emanuel's Divine Wind. --bender235 (talk) 22:57, 16 March 2009 (UTC)


 * My reference for the end point of Solano's Hurricane came from the Cheoweth paper which is referenced many times throughout the Atlantic climatology and is found at http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/hurdat/Chenoweth/. For the storm known as Solano's Hurricane, Chenoweth lists an endpoint at 44.5N latitude, 42.28W longitude which implies that it moved across the southeastern US and into the Atlantic as I showed.
