I'm not sure if it's north but it's not west either, but everything points to some sort of westward motion. That being said the pressures are falling slowly and winds are strong enough to be classifed. I guess their thinking is that it doesn't make any difference, rain will be the main concern.

Tailgator, that is really a beautiful picture of a tiger. Love that shot. You're a strong poster anyway, but that mascot has me tuning into to all of your posts.

I guess WNW means NW to NHC. Started in BOC and ended up in N Mex? WNW?

That thing had something to it. It has dense convection and form over land. It would have been a good system had it stayed over water. The Gulf is ready.
