The look of a system can fool people some times. The radar out of Cuba shown a open western quad eyewll about 2 hours ago. Also recon last time only found 62 knots flight level or 57 mph surface. It might of got better organized since then...In maybe they will find winds to support the 70 mph now. But it gots a little more organizion to become a hurricane.

I love the Dvorak images.

I do too, seems to show more detail, but have no idea of what a Dvorak image really is, or anything about Dvorak. I've heard it mentioned quit a bit and was wondering if someone could be nice enough to clue me in? :D

Well we basically got nothing from Katrina in Lake Worth (south of Jupiter) so getting anything will be more than Katrina here.

Also, the slight jog WSW may also help keep us out of range of the rough stuff. :?:

I think my eyes are going to permanently roll back in their sockets if I read another post comparing a barely TS come Cat 1 Rita to Hurricane Katrina. :roll: :lol:
