hi reflectees !
In the last days, especially the last 3 days, i observed fairly high QRN levels 
in Europe on 160m and 80 m bands.
This does not fit into the greater local EU weather pattern as we have cold 
nights and no reported thunderstorms.
My directional receiving antennas say, the noise is propagated over the 
northern Atlantic and is not of equatorial origin. My suspicion is now that 
hurricane "Frances" or its remnants are creating this QRN.
Question is, do topband stations in the greater neighborhood of the hurricane 
observe significantly higher QRN, and do stations, being in North America, 
locate high noise in the hurricanes direction ?
73 de wolf (diggin` into the noise )
