This was my thought exactly and it has me worried! :eek:

THIS SLIGHT
WESTWARD JOG SHOULD NOT BE INTERPRETED AS A LONG TERM MOTION OR
CHANGE FROM THE PREVIOUS FORECAST TRACK.

This is a big statement from Stewart talking about wobbles I wonder why?

What is going on with her now? I looks like the top of her is becoming flat? Does that mean she is hitting the ridge?

Might be a bobble, but the difference between this bobble and the others is that it occurred after Fran had basically stopped for a couple of hours..Hurricanes sometimes stop to turn, specially with a stronger than predicted ridge of high pressure (max Mayfield's words) to its north

Also...take note of the direction the deep convection is oriented.

This could be a sign of the west to wnw movement...earlier then expected too...only time will tell

hurrcane_lover I'd like to know 2 things:

1) Where do you live in Fl and how much could Frances impact you if it hits cent/se-ern FL.

2) What are you reasons for saying this storm is NC bound when current water vapor loops/upper air analysis show the ridge in place and even farther sw-ward into the Gulf, not to mention all the models have it going into the Fl coast. Even the GFS which was off the last few days has the storm going into Cent Fl then up through w-ern Ga.

She looks to be on a strengthening trend again. I wouldn't rule out a near cat.5 by the time she lands :eek:

Whatever weakening phase was occuring has ended. Look for this storm to potentially bomb as it heads west.

I see the WNW to W orientation. If this thing turns now folks in the Panhandle to New Orleans had better be ready. Especially Alabama to Lousiana, as it would have more time over 88 degree if it got that far west

Looks like a wobble. Latest frame looks to be heading more NW again. I think it will turn WNW at some point, though.

I'm a bit surprised by how small the eye appears though.
