BY THE WAY, I THINK IT'S TRYING TO WRAP AROUND ITS CENTER. LET SEE HOW LONG THE NHC WAITS TO CLASSIFY THIS SYSTEM WHICH HAS A GOOD SHOT IN BEING "ZETA" RATHER THAN "ALBERTO."

Less than 40 hours to be Alberto so the race is on.But as I see it now it may be Zeta before 2005 goes.

Jim I believe 100 percent into your thinking. The Sun/space controls all weather. The Atmosphere gets controled from space/sun. This could improve forecasting a million fold!!!! Good Job Jim!
