Important is the fact that the position now is a bit north of the past positions as it has been relocated more north now at 17.8n-83.6w.This has many implications in terms of the future track is concerned.

I'm just not buying a turn to the SW once it gets in the GOM. Get ready for a drama-filled weekend everyone.
