WOW - Check out the jog Northwest

#1 Postby Steve Cosby » Thu Sep 04, 2003 8:41 pm

Just looked at IR Floater for Fabian - check out the jog northwest in the last few frames. It actually seemed to be going just east of north (and maybe miss Bermuda to the east). Now it's wobbled right back

That IMO, is even worse for Bermuda ... but in looking at the IR loop Fabian appears to have sped up some and also maybe filling just a bit as well...

The overall motion now is to the north but the question is when it will hook to the NE if it does before it comes to the latitud of Bermuda or after it passes that island.

Not as healthy

Yeah, you are right - it is not as healthy at the same time it seemed to have "re-aimed" itself.

I was just taken back by the sudden jog back like that.

Eek! I just checked it out and you're right. I hope if it does head toward Bermuda it continues to speed up.
