Strikingly Similar?

#1 Postby StormScanWx » Tue Aug 14, 2007 9:56 pm

Does anyone else think of Hurricane Ivan when they look at the projected paths, and location of Tropical Storm Dean? Maybe I'm the only one in that boat, but the forecasts sure do look strangely alike. I'm not implying anything by saying this, just looking at similarities.

Ivan vs Dean track:
Currently: Dean at 12N/42.3W
Ivan was close to Dean's current spot at 9.5N/43.4W and did not reach 12N until 62.6W.
Dean is expected to be near 15.0N when he reaches 62.W. I don't know if this means anything.
I bet the outcome is much different, IMO.
