“An emergency warning system being developed by South Florida’s two most prominent hurricane forecasters — former hurricane center director Max Mayfield and broadcaster Bryan Norcross — has been acquired by a small, publicly traded company.
The system, called America’s Emergency Network, is being built to give the media, local residents, and others direct access to information released by state and local emergency operations centers.”
“Two veteran South Florida weather forecasters are selling their upstart emergency communications company to an investment firm, a move to boost the probability they can improve instant communications during natural disasters.”
“An emergency warning system being developed by South Florida’s two most prominent hurricane forecasters — former hurricane center director Max Mayfield and broadcaster Bryan Norcross — has been acquired by a small, publicly traded company.”
“It’s called American’s Emergency Network, created by WFOR CBS4 Hurricane Specialist Bryan Norcross and former director of the National Hurricane Center, Max Mayfield, which will provide media, local residents and others direct access to information released by state and local emergency operations centers. It’s been sold to a company that will make it a publicly traded company.”
“Brampton Crest International, a small, public company, said it has agreed to buy an emergency communications system being developed by former National Hurricane Center Director Max Mayfield and broadcaster Bryan Norcross.”
While hurricane forecasts and models are getting better, that doesn’t mean emergency officials shouldn’t keep working on preparedness plans for the area’s next big storm.
“It doesn’t matter,” said Max Mayfield, former director of the National Hurricane Center, told a group of emergency workers today. “We’ve got to be prepared.”
