Climatology not on our side with Ivan...

Only one of the storms on this map missed the U.S.

Notables include: Hugo, Frederick, David, and Donna. :eek:

I think that as Ivan moves west, that map will get progressively more ominous, as if Donna and Hugo aren't ominous enough.

Remember, Brent ... Ivan is unprecedented ... NO hurricane this intense has ever developed so far south ... and current heading WEST at 21 MPH keeps this TC moving right along and has a better chance of getting into the Caribbean Sea and staying FAR south ...

Two wildcards later in the period include Frances leftovers leaving a trough behind in its wake, and a massive W Coast Trough that bumps up late in the MR ... which COULD have bearings late with the possibility of a GOM potential in about 10 days or so ... all speculation at this point ...

It's so far south I'm not sure it will cross Hispanola. I'm thinking it'll pass south of there and be in the Western Caribbean a little south of Cuba over the Cayman Islands in 5 days. :eek:
