Isabel...

#1 Postby Josephine96 » Sun Sep 14, 2003 9:04 am

As I am watching Isabel this morning.. I am noticing as she continues on her WNW track.. Forgive me if I'm wrong but in the last few frames of her satellite she appears to be moving due west again.. It probably isn't or it is just a wobble but I thought I'd point that out..

Also I notice how frightengly close she is to the Bahamas... Is the NHC gonna put up any watches or warnings for the Bahamian Islands..? even if it's just a precaution..

While I still am sticking to my guns and saying Florida is NOT out of the woods.. I will say predicting the landfall of this storm is a little bit insane to do right now cause even though it's now moving WNW you never know what tricks she has up her sleeve.. She may try to find a way to go due west again or just shoot North or even East or South

Continuing to watch In Florida.. very closely.. but starting to become more concerned for our fellow posters in the Carolina's... and our friends in the Bahamas even...

The big question is when does she begin to go NW or N instead of WNW...

I don't think the NHC issues warnings on the Bahamas. That would be the job of their government.

The NW turn really isn't expected for another 12-24 hours.
