Just curious, being that I had not had a chance to see the Euro 12Z "initial" ( or the 24 hr. forecast for that matter ), where does the Euro actually "initialize" the invest?? I realize that we are of course dealing with a broad diffuse invest and that it is speculative as to where exactly the center is, but as was mentioned earlier in this post, 1 degree surely might make a world of difference as too what kind of storm ( or "Megacane" ) we might be looking at, considering the track going over land or not. My eyes are telling me that its up around 14N and given that we are not yet dealing with that stacked of a system, would not imagine that any WSW motion would occur as a result of the strong ridging to its north. Would likely just go with the lower flow westward or perhaps just N. or due west I would guess.
