I've searched the web with no luck and was wondering if anyone on here

knows
of any live scanner feeds from Florida's east coast that might be good to
listen to in anticpation of the hurricane. Any sites specializing in VHF
Marine frequencies would be great.

Thanks to anybody that can help.


I have such a marine site, however, there is no marine traffic when all the
cruise ships have evacuated, police, fire and CG boats are hauled and
trailered away or otherwise safely secured, and all boating activity comes
to a screaming halt. After taking care of their family's needs and securing
their homes, boat owners are securing vessels as best they can, not
venturing out to fish or sightseeing. During the hurricane, neither USCG,
police, fire or ambulance will respond to any calls for any reason after
wind speeds reach a certain level. All emergency responders are ordered into
shelters then, no exceptions.

Scanner sites that cover police/fire feeds might have very interesting comms
*after* the hurricane passes through a given area.
