It will take several center passes to determine the exact motion.

Hopefully just a wobble.

The following is the opinion of Cryomaniac, and isn't based on any evidence. As such it shouldn't be used for any purpose

The longer Earl keeps moving vaguely west (so between 260 and 280) the more it pushes the cone west, which brings all kinds of possibilities. Even at a very large stretch the chance of it reaching the GOM.

He is pretty much trucking it west. When is he supposed to start turning north? I hope he does and soon, follows his sister Dee into the ocean.

Wobble or not these things are not well welcomed too close from the Leewards.
Hope no more, that could have some implications on the final track of Earl.

Will a Pro met or someone with a better handle on these steering currents help me out on how and why this will turn WNW then NW? I'm looking at this steering chart and know the patterns are changing constantly but the through that lifted Danielle out is almost due north of Earl. shouldn't it be moving in NW direction now being on the edge of the ridge to it's NE. The upper trough over Cuba doesn't show up on these charts.

Image

If I was guessing and that's all it would be guessing, I would think it would be moving due west to a tad SW then start re curving south of Cuba as the ridge over the Eastern seaboard shifted eastward.

I went back and check the charts for a deeper strom and think I can see what they and the models are counting on.
Image

pretty big difference.

If it doesn't start gaining latitude soon, it will be in the Caribbean Sea and would put Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands - at least - in the strongest part of the storm...

Agreed. He needs to turn and soon if the current forecasts are going to verify. What effect would his path have on 97 aka future Fiona?
