Answer 5

Thanks for all your help. I think it is the path of Hurricane Katrina

Answer 6

I'm sorry -- but I completely misread your longitude numbers. I thought the first two-digit number was the number of the question -- not part of the coordinates.

I goofed -- and I apologize.

You're probably right about those points marking the path of Katrina.
