I find the water vapor interesting..looks like a little window has opned up near the middle of the panhandle. I say the turn will happen sooner than later. Ready for my crow now :lol:

Watch WV loop you can see the high pressure ridge centered over LA is moving W into East Texas. Cloud flow near Mississippi and the GREAT state of Alabama are moving due south and retrograding west. The trough in WY is now approaching th CO stateline. Everything appears to be happening just as NHC is predicting. Time will tell.

Really, what makes you say this? What are you seeing on the water vapor loop? I'm very curious.

Is New Orleans in danger? The track keeps shifting west and if this keeps up, the track will have it go straight towards New Orleans. Worse case scenario possible. I can't believe how fast it's growing. This is going to be a huge rainmaker all the way up the east coast.

she's moving S of the NHC forecast points...we should expect a shift left in the projected path at 5pm at this rate...unless there is something I'm completely missing.

Nice link. :D Thanks and I agree. If you look at the southern edge near cuba..looks like Katrina is definately not going any further south thats for sure. Will be intersting to see when this turn occurs. Glad we dodged the bullet here but man do I feel for those folks north :(

I agree by looking at the watervapor looks like everything is right on NHC

Dude, its moving west, the western edge is building towards NMex and the eastern edge is in AL, it is migrating West. Any other opinions other than the dog.
