QUESTION ABOUT IVAN AND JEANNE

#1 Postby rainstorm » Thu Sep 23, 2004 4:37 pm

ivan is further north and west of jeanne. so, why is jeanne going to take a ne turn because of the trough coming from its west, and yet ivan is forecast to turn south, and not ne even though ivan is much closer to the trough?

Steve Weagle says the storm will move North not because of the trough but because a weakness in the High that should develop Saturday

true, but if there is no trough to turn jeanne, why will a "weakness' result in such a sharp ne turn?
