[Aric Dunn]

where did you get that from ,,.

[americanrebel]

Just a guess

[Hurricanewatcher2007]

I think thats his predictions of what it will be. I haven't seen anything to support that yet

[americanrebel]

I'm sorry, I forgot to put my disclaimer.

:uarrow: If you're using Google Earth Weather, that will happen. You need to download the Atlantic satellite images from our member, HenkL.

[ Click on "Software: WXDecoder, WXData, GoogleEarth bestanden" and then "GoogleEarth bestand voor orkaan verkenningsvluchten". There you will find the file. ]

They go directly to GE, you don't need to adjust anything.

I still have the clouds above the recon.

I am working towards the HenkL. I just learned this way and no one else was chiming in...so

[thunderchief]

dewpoint absolutely steady?

broken?

[Chris_in_Tampa]

sorry for no overlay...not sure how to match up

Open this file in Google Earth:
http://tropicalatlantic.com/overlays/Tr ... _Earth.kmz
When it opens go to:
NOAA Imagery > Atlantic Tropical Satellite Imagery > Gulf of Mexico
Then select an overlay. Maybe:
Without Lat/Lon > AVN
Then perhaps make the overlay semi transparent to view the track better.

[americanrebel]

So if I read RECON correct the center should be around 23.2 and 93.2, is that correct?

[Chris_in_Tampa]

Dropsonde was just dropped in eye.
Splash Time: 5:29Z

Thank you for the input...I will practice

[brunota2003]

What about any winds recorded on that sonde?

[Chris_in_Tampa]

It was dropped right in the eye, so light, 5 knots at the surface.

[brunota2003]

Ah, good shot then! That is what I wanted to know.

[JonathanBelles]

VDM coming soon?

[brunota2003]

Should be.

[americanrebel]

Looks like we might have a 55 - 60 kt storm now.

[brunota2003]

Mmm...I doubt it is that high yet. Maybe 50 knots, looking at the last page of obs.
