if her forward motion is faster, then won't she beat the front on the race? then what happens?

i'm guessing she'll go in somewhere around orlando area then cross over. i hope i'm wrong.

Ghost I was trying to put a link up, but couldn't get it. She pretty interesting already, but when you adjust the speed on those automated tracking sites you get all kinds of silly ideas. And I refuse to mention any doorsteps I do not want to jynx anyone.

same here john, i've been through too many of these things. my first experience was with eloise back in 75 after my mom and dad moved down here when i was a teenager in 73.

elena is the one that taught me to expect the unexpected. we left for montgomery cause it was coming our way. came back home. 3 days later headed to tallahasse *smiles*

You have to click interactive tracker on this news site for what I've been using (free!) but I don't know how to direct link you to it

What's Issy trying to say?!?!?!?!? *scratches head*

The world may never know.....


The link on that post earlier was http://orca.rsmas.miami.edu/wximages/jet/1_05/anis.html

Yeah Colin it's not the coolest link ever but it is a free way to follow the plotting. I find it pretty good to get an idea of the overall motion. Easier than dots on paper too. :)
