Wow that was quite a shift north and eastward. The XTRAP even moved. It looks like those models calling for a sharp northward turn might not have been so crazy after all.

Southfl - nope...I was being sarcastic because my graphics were showing it going over Hispaniola and I don't like them going up that direction because it is aimed my way LOL So, the lol was for the sarcasm :) BUT, when I looked at the updated graphics, it wasn't going that way, so it didn't make sense then :wink:

But, thank you, really, for the graphics. I am better looking at those than the list of coordinates :)

Statement as of 5:30 PM EDT on September 16, 2005

For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico...

he vigorous tropical wave located about 450 miles east-southeast
of southern Windward Islands has become better organized and is
showing signs of developing a surface low pressure center.
Upper-level winds have also become more favorable...and a tropical
depression could form later tonight or on Saturday as the system
moves west-northwestward at around 15 mph. Interests in the Lesser
Antilles and the eastern Caribbean
Sea should closely monitor this
system over the next couple of days. An Air Force Reserve unit
reconnaissance aircraft is scheduled to investigate the system
tomorrow...if necessary.


Note that they mention the lesser antilles and the eastern caribbean sea. I think they are not buying the northard turn. Also not "west-northwest".[/b]

Yep...right on target. No surprise, it was evident it has been slowly but surely organizing all day.

I have to state that I categorically disagree with that TWO regarding the TA system. The one north of PR is going to develop, little quesation regarding that.

However, I have been looking at very close up sat imagery all day and see zero evidence of a closed surface circulation

I see a hint of closed LLC....it's rather elongated, but I believe it's there.

Why doe's he say that the enviroment is favable? I don't get it you can see the shear racing through it on the northern side. The nhc always says this in the face of shear.

Well, those men take their jobs very seriously...and Stacy Stewart is a very good man...and a great forecaster.

Sorry, but when you can't even handle basic grammar how are we supposed to take any of your opinions seriously?

Who made you the freaking grammar police? Sorry for the mistakes, but everyone makes them.


As the storm it has 15 to 20 knot shear to its northern quad racing through it. Yes it seems to have a LLC but not a depression yet. The quickscats did not show a LLC this morning. So the recon will prove or disprove it.

But I already know that the nhc forecasters are good.

Very seriously indeed. Time to turn the fans on high and blow this one (two??) away.
