Had access to some detailed NASA weather maps tonight.  There's a egg shaped
high pressure system over the the Bahamas with the pointed end to the
Northeast.  A a Low pressure trough off the the coast of the Carolina's extends
above Virginia.

Following the circulation patterns Monserat aerosols could be swept
Northeastward to the Low then down across Central Florida and North along the
Eastern coast.  The Moon looks yellow down here tonight...joe  :-}
