Maybe not a stall, but it seems to be crawling.

What the nam is showing now seems to be what the gfs has been showing. Isaac skirting the la coast.

A little off topic but does anyone think that the NAM has gotten a little bit better with Tropical forecast? Im not saying its reliable or anything like that but it definitely gotten better IMO.

the only reason it got better recently was because it is being fed all this data from the GVI flights and special soundings....you take that away and Isaac would be up the East Coast.... :lol:

Unbelievable. This Lat/Long is Buras Louisiana.
Same exact spot as Katrina exactly 7 years to the day.
(Of course at 4 pm/ 10pm today and again at 4am tomorrow, I would imagine that line moving 25 miles west or east of this position... so)

With the shift west from the nam does anyone think that might be an indication of more west shifts from the other models?

Looks like it may go more Westerly now. NHC mentions the ridge go stronger.

A col is a region right in the middle of two ridges and two lows. As a result the steering currents are very weak.

NAM looks pretty slow on its forward motion by 36hrs, it is a little worrying that we may have a hurricane effectivly crawling.
