"Dumb" Question: Are the floaters automatically repositioned when a storm reaches the point that it cannot be picked up by the floater. Was just looking at Floater 1 off of SSD: http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/PS/TROP/float1.html and noticed it will reach the point it cannot be picked up by the floater this afternoon.
If the floater gets to the point of not picking up the storm, is there a good webpage address (Floater) that covers between Jamaica and the Yucatan Peninsula.
Thanks

this loop clearly shows that wobble..

I have been noticing that also Frank it is stair stepping,looks like almost 3 frames slight NofW then 2 to the NW.I am still not buying the S of Jamaica solution.The scenario a few days ago was static(lack of a better word) for the WNW route just the High to the N now it has gotten more dynamic with the ULL in the picture.Now if Dean can go S of the ULL then I buy the WNW solution just never have seen it Claudette in 03? went around the ULL into N TX,followed the CCW flow.Hey I am just a hick from MS
Storm will pass south of Jamica, missing North "aint gonna happen", but a complete miss south is better than a direct hit.

Re: Major Hurricane DEAN: (8 AM page 251) Discussions, Analysis
Oddly enough it seems that Dean has gone steady-state on us over the past 12-14 hours. Closed concentric eyewalls still exist at 16 and 34 mi in diameter - pressure is holding about the same. Is it absolutely gospel that the EWRC would complete itself, or could Dean theoretically hold on to a concentric structure for the duration until the Yucatan, especially considering that its CDO was never that impressive as extreme hurricanes go (e.g. no solid -70C cloudtops and such)?

Here is a Google Map of the path so far, long link:
http://www.tropicalatlantic.com/recon/p ... .62c-75.60
Does not update. I did not include the earlier obs from takeoff.
You can see they are headed back to the center.
