The center should move back to the northwest though so the models should not end up being to far off. Here is a excerpt from the 2am advisory
AT 200 AM AST...0600 UTC...THE CENTER OF TROPICAL STORM ISAAC WAS
LOCATED NEAR LATITUDE 15.5 NORTH...LONGITUDE 63.5 WEST. ISAAC IS
MOVING TOWARD THE WEST NEAR 20 MPH...32 KM/H. SOME ERRATIC MOTION
TOWARD THE WEST-NORTHWEST OR NORTHWEST COULD OCCUR LATER THIS
MORNING...BUT A GRADUAL TURN TOWARD THE WEST-NORTHWEST IS EXPECTED
BY THIS AFTERNOON AND CONTINUE INTO FRIDAY.[b][/b]
But, read the highlighted, larger fonted (is that a word?) section.
This is not heading due west anymore, at least not for long.
Iono yo, sounds like a fantasy outcome for some hell bent person on a specific track.. 50 mile shift south is substantial. If it shifts NW or WNW still, it will not be in the same coordinates as once expected before it shifted south unexpectedly.. it is not like it would make up for lost miles like that (snaps fingers)
