Iris which is trailing Hugo in lock step about 650 miles to the east Satellite photos indicate that the two storms are interacting but exactly how they ultimately will affect each other is guesswork

expected to be posted this morning for some or all of the coastal area between Florida and North Carolina Jerry Jarrell deputy director of the National Hurricane Center in Coral Gables said most

to help pay the cost Although there was no direct sign of it in a carefully worded statement issued by the Vatican press office the action was tantamount to papal intervention in a dispute that had
