Also here's a "true" color image of Erin I made using the red, green, and blue visible GOES channels. I think it came out pretty good looking.

Tropical Storm #Erin continues trucking west and is showing signs of life after nearly two days of struggling. While a weakness in the western Atlantic ridge is a given, how quickly the ridge rebounds and what role an eastern US trough play could lead to some longer-term track intrigue.

It still looks to me like it is south of due west. The longer this loses latitude the more you can bet we will see track changes.

Convective canopy has dipped below 16N. Not sure if the LLC is sitting just north of the convection.

All the more reason to keep focusing on trends. As the saying goes timing is everything in regards to the forecasted weakness.

Also why I’m not sold on the recurve even though it appears likely at this point.

Let's see if there will be an ASCAT pass over the storm to see in reallity, where is the circulation.

Looks pretty good. Need microwave to see what's under the hood.

Why do I feel that Erin is heading right for me?

Dont feel that way Barbara. All the models have Erin passing north of St Marteen and you will have some indirect effects such as some rainbands with gusty winds and the surf will be very high.

Hi Luis. Yes, that is what we’re expecting here. I know we all will be ok but I won’t feel totally confident until I see her making that north turn.
Thanks for all your updates.
