No... still moving NW ... on this 1km resolution visible loop

This is a hard loop to look at and you got to catch it quick before sundown.

Looking at images 286, 287, and 288 ONLY it looks like a slow crawl WNW or NW. Moving VERY slowly though.. but just you all wait until the trough passes.. then she'll start moving!!

I have to agree ... a little shortwave ridge has temporary built over the general area of Isabel and weakened steering currents but as SacrydDreamz said, the second trough is expected to accelerate Isabel quite a bit ...

I believe she's stationary. Noticed last night early today she might get into a col area between the high to th ne and trough to the west.

Its moving NW........slow but its moving im watching a water vapor right now.....................What has me more intrested is the system comming at the coast which looks a bit more stronger then forecasted imo.....................Cant wait to see the 00z model runs to see how they pick up on this.....................If someone else like one of the Pros see something different then what i am? Please point it out................Thanks................My guess is if our system comming at the EC is a bit stronger that would suggest a track a bit farther North then the current models have it landfalling right now................And no im not suggesting a landfall all the way up at the NJ coast either!.........................Just a tad north like around the VA Capes?
