St. Maarten is 18.1 N and 63.1 West
but when I plotted that on Google Earth, it put me in the ocean :lol:
I guess I have to my GPS out and get the exact exact coordinates.
When those storms start coming across the islands, I want them North of 20!

Make sure you have your GE settings for degrees not decimals. Decimals put you in places you never dreamed about :D

I have not read through all the posts on this topic so I don't know if this has been suggested yet. I think it would be cool if somebody could post all these locations in some sort of graphic form, perhaps even on a map of some sorts.
