Floydbuster's 2nd Ivan forecast...

Hurricane Ivan Forecast # 2
Monday September 6, 2004 11pm
Mike "Floydbuster" Naso
DISCLAIMER: USE NHC for OFFICAL INFO

Ivan is steady at 105 mph, but unfortunate for the islands... the pressure has dropped 6 millibars all evening to the current 963 mb.

I broke history in "my terms" with my 11am forecast track being RIGHT on holdwith the NHC track, expect mine was 12 hrs earlier. The link for that post is here: http://www.storm2k.org/phpbb2/viewtopic.php?t=42422

Whatever the case, I am holding that track... and this 11pm track is just a little faster than the last and a tiny bit farter south.

The intensity should not be a BIG problem since it is no longer forecast to interact with land greatly. Therefore, I am stronger with the NHC... they would be too, but they are conservative with their forecasts.

NOTE: IVAN MAY EVENTUALLY END UP AS A DANGEROUS HURRICANE IN THE GULF OF MEXICO....

Where you think Long Range will take the system. I am a little worried about the North Gulf Coast.

You have it plotted a bit too far north.

Yes, and he has it strengthening well even very close to the SA coast. I don't doubt we are seeing strengthening, but I think it may level off until it reaches 75W. We shall see. either way probably a good call.
