Hi everyone:
Not many logs this week, particularly from Europe. I was away from the radio from Thursday to Sunday afternoon, so I missed the peak times.
Sunday night saw an actual hurricane make landfall in Newfoundland. This is the first time that I can ever remember an actual hurricane landing here. We have had lots of tropical storms that were former hurricanes, but they never maintained hurricane strength all the way here before. Thankfully, it lost strength very quickly once it landed, and surprisingly little damage was done. Should be affecting the UK and Ireland around now.
The logs:
