Some other thoughts that came to mind:   
      
   Google Internet Ballon down but I don't think my traffic goes via that.   
      
   The only other thing I can think of is that perhaps satelittle or some radio   
   based internet link was affected by the storm's immense power.   
      
   This could mean this hurrican has some unknown eletrical properties that I   
   have at least never heard of, though ofcourse in films the communication is   
   bad during a storm.   
      
   I now believe what I may have experienced was some radio or satelittle   
   electronic disruption caused by this hurrican... hmmmm...   
      
   Perhaps the electro magnetic field of the hurrican was so big it affected a   
   transatlantic cable, interesting hypothesis will post this elsewhere too ;)   
      
   Bye,   
     Skybuck.
