#395 Postby AbcdeerHI » Tue Aug 04, 2015 5:51 am
1st pass - 992mb
2nd pass - 995mb
3rd pass - 989mb
using the ruler on google earth the storm has made slight wobble to the left, possibly due to recent convection expanding. initally the heading was 330 degrees between 1st and 2nd pass. from 2nd -3rd pass its 325 degrees. thought this was interesting since the discussion they mentioned the shear possibly weakening until 5/18z. its really to early to tell if this holds any merits.
