Re: ATL: HURRICANE ALEX - DISCUSSION
Good news for BRO now is a westward jog is occurring.
Yes, it seems to be more than just a wobble, and if true that would be sooner than what was mentioned in the latest TCD...
It's good news for BRO, but bad for those to the south - let's hope Alex doesn't get any stronger...

Far from due west though, its stil lgaining a decent amount of latitude. The Extrap motion over the last hour would not take it to Bro *but* a 290-300 would still be close enough to the zone where hurricane force winds are possible at least in gusts, esp if it does strengthen towards landfall like it looks like it is.

Re: ATL: HURRICANE ALEX - DISCUSSION
they will still have to adjust the projected path. Still going to be a lot closer to Brownsville, especially if it decides to head north again, which will most likely continue to happen

Yes it is, and its the worst kind of eye regarding a strengthening hurricane- the pinhole eye.

Alex still has a double wind Maxima. Good news in some ways for it not to strengthen too explosivly before landfall, but it does mean some of those hurricane winds are extending quite some way out, even down to the surface now we are getting 60-66kts a decent way out from the center.
