Question about Ophelia ...

#1 Postby RU4REAL » Thu Sep 15, 2005 9:14 am

In looking at the last frame she looks better to me, eye seems more formed, but I can't tell what direction she is going, I put up the long/latitude, she it looks to be going more north than east I worry some about it re-strenthing and coming back or looping around...help please...

Yes, in the last picture it's visible how the eye and its complete structure are becoming more circular.

She's an absolute mess on the radar loop though. The western semi-circle has been gradually falling apart for a few hours.
