Fiona certainly does look good right now. Check out this loop..She looks as if she is going to be steered west to my newberian eyes...thoughts? Something also appears to be trying to organize in the Gulf...

See how the circulation is outrunning the deep convection?

Look at her! She is nowhere near ready to surrender yet. What a crazy ride she's had.

Wow what a strange looking storm, the circulation looks really elongated to the north, amazing really its managed to keep itself together to be honest!

Could the center relocate to the deep convection? That could spell fairly quick strengthening...I wouldn't count out it becoming Hurricane Fiona just yet...

That looks unlikely. The little vortex is shooting north and expanding now. Shear is on the increase. Fiona is on her last legs.

Fiona looks real good right now. Hope Bermuda won't get to much from this.

That's because northerly shear is rare in the tropics.

I'm sure this is a stupid question so forgive my lack of knowledge. But why is it so white in the center of that last one?

Fiona's center will pass very close to Bermuda. Here is the radar from that island.
