The reason it's scary is Atlanta is WAY inland.
Doesn't happen often. Last big wind event was Opal in 1995.
As long as the track stays east of me... I should be OK, but anymore westward shift would have it over me. It's only 30 miles off right now. I just don't want any outages. Rain is fine(even though we don't need it).

I see that temporary wobble more north in the frame too.
Odds are that it is nothing more than an anomaly and will continue on the NHC track, but there is a slight chance it is the early indications of a more NW motion now.
It's way too early to know, and the SATs will be in blackout in a few hours

Thanks Sean, I also saw John Gumm on the 10:00 news. He gave a very good analysis of possible forcast for Ivan. I also watched NBC news, the met only said the storm was going to Florida and our weather will be a little breezy. He didn't suggest that we monitor the storm. Mr. Gumm suggested we continue to monitor the hurricane's progress. It's amazing the difference in mets.

I believe the storm is too far South to respond to any of this at this time...Florida Peninsula, thank God, can pretty much rest easy with this hurricane. You all have gotten shot twice, I don't see a three strikes and your out this time---the peninsula came dangerously close, though, to having it's economy collapse, IMO. Someone's watching out for you guys...

The only "split" in the ridge is to the NE of the storm. It has already missed this weakness. The ridge remains strong just to the NW of Ivan, which is why he has been moving so slowly. This (clockwise rotation) is evident in both the 00z upper air data, and any satellite loop. As the ridge breaks down, Ivan should begin moving a little more quickly to the WNW and NW. I still think he will just clip the western tip of Cuba, w/ very little land interaction.

Eye contracting, NW turn beginning?
Motion from 2115Z through 0315Z appears to be about 300.
Bad news for Grand Cayman.
Eye appears to be contracting in the last couple frames.

Also might be entraining a little bit of drier air from the NW... convection not as intense on that side....

I regretfully am going to point out that although the season is just going to start to decline, it is by no means over, and the FL pen is in big trouble if another major hurricane comes around here.

Lets hope they all go
