Could be another trick on radar, but it sure looks like there is some westward progression based on NOAA/NWS radar out of Jacksonville.

No, it's not a trick, she definitely is.

yes, shes actually moving now. You can see the rainbands moving, and not just a center deformation.

Good....she needs to GTFO. I think everyone is sick of her now. As fun as it's been I'm tired of staying up all night. :lol:

She's actually starting to move at a pretty okay pace now. Seems like she's moved at least 5 miles in the last half hour.

Yep she is definitely looks like she is moving now. The next NHC advisory will
more then likely confirm that.

What makes you think WSW? She seems to have a good due west clip right now.

Huh? The NHC makes no mention of any WSW movement with Fay's future track.

Well because I think that this "center" took over the older one and I still think the old one still has some circulation around it. It is really weird and hard to explain. I am not saying it is going to happen just saying that I wouldn't be suprised.

What I gather you mean is a small center rotating around inside a larger one. Right?

Yes and I think the smaller one will take over I just think it will shift a little south. We will see though. It very well might not do that. Just speculating.

What? I really have no idea what you're talking about. I only see one extremely obvious center.

That's cool, I'm on board with the idea too. I'm just looking at the overall structure now and where that seems to be going. Watching the center dance all around for days now has got me cross eyed trying to nail down a motion.

Yes but if you check the hours before that, that was not the situation.

Finally she's clipping West...I don't see any WSW wobbles at all. I hope this is finally her turn toward the gulf.

I think you might be right. Convection seems to be filling in East of the center and that the center in completely on land now.

Why do you want her to get into the GOM and possibly strengthen? Wouldn't it be better for everyone if she stayed
over land and weakened?

I want her gone completely. I'm more interested in 95L. I just meant since she is headed that way to get the heck out of Florida so those guys can dry out.

No, what'd be better is if she stayed over water AND weakened :lol:
