Hurricane Ernesto - Cat. 1

[tracyswfla]

These are the moments I love most on this board. Just thought I'd mention that. Carry on.

Ditto.... Vortex, please?

[curtadams]

They need a NW to close it, and if the center is where we all think it is (between Grenada and St. Vincent) it won't be near where they are - it would be WSW of Grenada. Since wind went from NNE to S abruptly there doesn't *have* to be a NW.

Let me try to understand what you're saying. So they don't need to entirely close off a LLC in order to upgrade it? Just wondering. I'm still learning this stuff.

They need 360, but the rest is all there. Well, not W either but if they have NW and SW as part of a 360 they'll find a W too.

[DESTRUCTION5]

Isn't that whole set SW winds? 230 degrees?

Sure is...

[Damar91]

Boy, you can feel the anticipation building........

[brunota2003]

I do not see a NNW wind from the readings

however, it appears as if a clsoed circ is trying to form near 12.8N and 61.7W

wait...in the other thread you said to highlight it...which is it? you see one or not? I'm confused...

[Derek Ortt]

recon still has not found a NW wind, no readins of the wind direction between 270 and 360

[Brent]

I didn't see any NNW either, but that entire last set was all SW winds.

I asked cyc to highlight the NW wind, which does not seem to exist, unless I am reading the ibs incorrectly

I pointed out a sat center that I was able to fix

[fwbbreeze]

[LAwxrgal]

[Matt-hurricanewatcher]

Its to bad because we need northwest wind. But hopefully we will find more of it.
